BELLEVUE HERALD: The State
Beard of Equalization has assessed
herailways of Idaho, apportioning
to Logan county l72 miles, assessed
q, 500 mile. This gives Logan
county in one lump s1,1lS,325 in as
sessable property. This is more than
onc-half the total valuation of the
county. When it is remembered that
the railroad is practically no expense
% the county, the fortunate situation
for the humble taxpayer in the
county is at once apparent. Logan
county stands second on the list in
railroad property. Alturas has $10l,-

A Yankee and German 80 sheep
Hunting.


A Yankee and = German 30 sheep
Hunting.
The other day a sheep strayed
from the band Of 9, 1893, not fifty miles
from Idaho City. A German and an
American espicd the stray, consulted
in regard 70 its capture and
concluded that with proper and skill
ful maneuyering the sheep would be
their meat. Each took a gun and
separated for the purpose Of closing
in on the sheep from different direc-
tions. The German got there first
and slew the sheep. He gazad all
about for his partner, the American,
and finally his optics were fastened
on man standing on point long
way off, 50 he pulled off bis hat and
waved it, and continued to wave 1T
again and again, but the man not
moving off in that direction, he raised
| his voice and yelled with a rever-
berating yell for the man to come
6 nit der hill down. The man on
the hill was then forcibly struck with
the idea that the man below was in
distress or something serious was the
matter, so he moved off down the
mountain. 1t was serious matter,
very soon, for the German, for he
saw, with wild-eyed alright, that the
man was the sheep herder, but he
proved equal to the situation, and
more too. The herder, approaching
within few PAGES of the now scared
German, inquired: What's the
matter, my friend?" aOh, / vas so
sorry | makes some meestakes NIT
dot sheep. He pokes his head nit
dot brush out, und say-now |
shoots dot deer so quick as never
vas -und mine shiminy he vas a
sheep. | vas SO awful sorry for dose
mistakes | calls you from dot hill TOP
down to explain, und make you some
pay for dose muttons.n The herdel
said that was all right; any one wa.
, liable to make a mistake, and he
r didn't want any pay for the sheep
The herder then proposed to help the
German skin the mutton, and wher
they were busily at work the Amer.
lean hove in sight near by and the
German was again filed with fear
thinking the American might say
something that would not corroborate
the plausible statement already made
When not observed by the herdel
the German raised his hand in 4
, tragic manner, then held the hand
: over his mouth, which the American
rightly interpreted to mean" KeeF
mum" The American walked VI
and simply asked: What are yoI
: doing here, boys?" This was Jus
: the question that suited the German
o and he related all the circumstance
as he had related them to the herder
and of course then there was M
;, danger of the American saying any
u thing to give the Germany away
n The sheep hunters shouldered thei
o mutton and walked off buoyantly ant
9 with light cousciences.

A CentenarIan's Giant Progeny.

CHATTANOOGA, August 13.-Probably
the most remarkable family in the
United States is the Walker family living
near HendersonVille, N. G. William
Walker, the oldest member of the family,
was soldier in the war of 1919, and
processes to remember the Revolutionary
War. he is generally supposed to be
about ITO years of age, although the
record is not as exact as might be wished.
at an early day Walker came to North
Carolina, where be raised family of
twenty two children, equally divided
between the sexes, The eleven boys
ranged in height from feet inches to
Z feet, and all of them are still living.
Seven of these men have SONS and there
is not one of these sons who is less than
+ feet in height. There are twenty-five
grown grandsons and five grown great
grandsons and every one of them is full
8 feet and over in height.
They have always lived in the noun.
tains few miles from Hendersonville,
and follow farming for livelihood. No
record has been kept of the generations
and the families have been large, 30 that
the descendants of this man, who is still
living, if brought together would make a
respectable sized town.

The total population of the country is,
says the Atlanta Journal, still computed
at 64,000,0OO. The House of Represen-
tatiyes atpresent consists Of 392 members,
and is now a body 80 large as TO make
the expedition OF its business difficult
matter, especially when questions of q
party character are under consideration.
The probability is that the number will
not be increased, except by the admission
Of members from the three OF four terrific
:riss yet to come in as States. Assuming,
therefore, thatthe present number will be
maintained, the ratio of representation
must be increased to about 100000.
This would give Georgia 10 members as
at present; Alabama might gain l, on
account of large fraction, giving her 9,
North and South Carolina would retain
their present representation; Virginia
and Tennessee might lose each; Mis-
sissippi and Arkansas would gain ! each !;
5and Texas and Missouri would gain at
fleast1 each. There would probably be
no change in Kentucky, Maryland, Loui-
ssiana and Florida. 1t thus appears that
the Southern States cannot lose, relative.
tlg with other sections, in representation,
and the prospect is that they will gain at
least two OF. three in the aggregate. The
Northwestern States will also gain, and
those losing representation will be the
States of inveterate sectional hate and fa.
fnaticism.

ATLANTA, GA. August 29.-There is a
professional nurse in Atlanta whose
name has not been given, but for whom
the police are looking.
She was employed recently to cere for
a child Of wealthy parents during the
first six weeks ofits existence. The little
one thrived several weeks, sleeping most
of the time, but when the nurse was dis.
charged at the expiration of six weeks
the child grew fretful, slept bat little,
and is now in very critical condition,
and the doctors do not expect it to live.
No cause could be assigned for the
babes condition until the nurse was
employed to care for another infant. 1t
slept most of the time and everything
went we'll until the mother detected the
nurse giving 1t morphine from paper
she had hidden in her bosom.
The nurse said she administered the
drug to keep the baby quiet, as she could
not afford to have it crying all the time.
She was discharged, and the child-well,
it now fills tiny grave, while ths other
is expected to follow it, and the nurse
cannot be found.-Jiacon Telegraph.

The sBaptists of the United States, and
indeed, of the world, says the Atlanta
EC5nstitutio,., have cause for thankfulness
and coDgratulation in the announcement
that g great university, under the auspi-
:ces of the Baptist denomination, will
soon be founded in the city of New York.
az least that is the probability. Mr..
John D. Rock kfeller, Of Standard Oil fame,
who has frequently made magnificent
gifts to Baptist Churches and institutions
in the United States, is the man who
proposes to found such a university and
TO introduce it to the people with the
.princely endowment of $4,000, 900.
tits said that Mr.. Rockefeller is in earnest
.about this matter. He is one of the
wealthiest men in America, or in the
world, for that matter-and his desire
seems to be to lend his millions to the en-
'couragement of good works, and to build
for himself monument in the hearts of
the people-the only place where monu-
,ments endure. Twenty million dollars !!
Its, perhaps, the most magnificent en-
3doWment that any institution has ever
had, the largest sum ever given by one
man for such purpose.

President Stokes Policy,

The following outline of policy appear
ed in the Charleston World a few
days ago in response to the inquiries of a
reporter for that paper:
''The policy of any executive officer
should be shaped by the conditions he
finds, in view of the objects to be at
tanned. In the case of the president of
State Alliance, the objects to be attain
ed are explicitly set forth by tie consti-
tuition of the order and the demands of
the National Supreme council at St. Louis
last December.
sThe conditions ne find are of two
kinds-fundamental and consequential.
The fundamental condition, which has
made most of our evils possible, is the
limited culture and information of the
agricultural classes, as compared with
those engaged in other industries. The
policy adapted to this condition is mani
testify education. Better schools and
more of them, conducted upon rational
and progressive lines. Better equipment
and improved modern appliances in those
schools with longer terms and better
attendance. All this must be stressed !;
but above all else the necessity of intro
duciDg these improvements by private
rather than by public enterprise, by indi.
vidual and neighborhood effort, rather
than by State taxation.
"The power of the press must be recog-
nized, and utilized systematically, persis.
tently, intelligently. As an educator and
dissemination of information, as vindica.
tor Of truth, as q defender of the order
and its purpose, the press will be laid un.
der full tribute.
"In all ways possible full conception
of the problems that confront agriculture
will be impaired, and always and every
where the importance of consolidation,
compact organization will be emphasized.
"Our deficiencies in respect to skill,
training and strategy must be supple
mented by the momentum Of compact,
thoroughly disciplined body against the
entrenchment of our foes. In this way
only can we hope to undo the evils that
have been inflicted by unjust legislation
and wicked combination. I'm this way
only can we hope to ward ofsimilar blows
to our welfare, while the slow moving
forces of education are uplifting the
masaes."
"A. boy cannot be educated in q year,
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1890-08-28

nor in decade. A people cannot be ed
ucated in generation. So that while We
are pressing progress at every point along
all possible lines of education, with all
possible speed, we must expect immediate
relief from our burdens only through the
impact Of our consolidated forces anima.
ted by unfalteripg conviction of the right.
eousness and reasonableness of our cause.
This has been the policy that has OBJ.
tanned in the past, under the judicious
and trm direction of my predecessor.
THE progress made enables the order
now to assume more aggressive attitude,
and her demands will be pressed in ali
legitimate ways"
