TAN on FERTILIZERS.

TRUSTS. l: BOW proposes to pl &c
tax Of two dollars a ton on com
nercial fertilizers. The very
large proportion Of fertilizers are
usanuiacfured aud used in the
south. One Of the ingredients
us-1 ia tie manufacture Of fertili.
gers Is sulphurie acid. Heretofore
there has been no duty % sui,
phuric acid. But few manu-
tacturers north, who have made
money by its manufacture, would
increase their profits, hence a duty
would be 50 many dollars out Of
the south into their pockets. What
does the dearly beloved brother il

The negroes Of Terrell county

THE WORK IN TERRELL.
Special Record Of Nsrtgages..i In
sruefiOns of Sub Agents.

sruefions of Sub Agents.
This is Interesting to the people
Of Dawson and Terrell county.
There Is one department Of the
eleventh census bureau called "sts.
tistics Of record Indebtedness, " a
very important one BY the way as
bearing a direct relation to the
wealth Of the country, and this Is
being very closely attended TO.
S. Wise Parker will take the
statistics in this county. He l.
instructed to start with the record
ed mortgages OF 1889 and proceed
backward to the beginning 81 tie
period covered with the work.
The object is to get d complete
record Of all mortgages on prop
erty in this state, by whom held,
and to what amount, also whether
held by private parties, or private
or public corporations. CancelIa-
tons made since December 81,
1889, are not to be noted, and the
mortgages they cancel are not to
be considered as uncancelled.
The agents have got to search the
records of the county clerks Office
and their work is somewhat la
borious. Printed blacks are furn-
ished for work in each county and
the instructions are very system-
attic and full. Each agent
sends the state agent daily a report
card stating the number Of mort
cages noted, and the daily expense,
covering everything save salary,
and &c the superintendent Of census
at Washington, ID. g., they send
a report card at the completion Of
the work in each county. This
contains report Of total number
OF days work, expenses for travel
and substance, and total number
Of mortgages IN said county"
"The main reports made direct
to the superintendent at Washing
ton contain the year in which loan
was made, amount Of original loan,
amount due upon the principal
January |, 1890, and amount Of
partial payment, il any. The
mortgages included are those da-
ted within the six years ending
with December 81, 1889, covering
all mortgages upon which partial
payments have been mode. 1t
does not include mortgages that
have been paid in full, and the
year when each mortgage was
made and not the month and day,
is to be written down"

put forward Walter b. Hill. Of

idea Is born Of the recent decision
OF the United States Supreme

prohibitionists to the conclusion
that they will be handicapped as
long as the government grants

sal, as AN Article OF Diet.

The Importance of salt as an article
OF diet, according To a scientific writer,
IN overrated A continued use OF
large quantities Of salt will produce
scurvy. The popular belief that an
appetite for It Is universal among the
lower animals is without any founda-
ton in fact. Dogs, cats and other
carniverous animals show no fond
ness for 1t, and the same Is true OF the
fruit-eating animals. Herbiverous
animals do not eat salt regularly with
their food, but only al long intervals,
which suggests the thought that per
haps they take 1t as vermifuge. In
certain parts of the world where salt
IL unknown antelopes abound in
countless numbers. and in parts OF
Africa where salt is abundant the an
telopes show no fondness for it. There
are many instances IN which hocks OF
sheep and herds Of cattle have been
reared successfully without salt. In
certain parts OF Central Africa salt Is
more scarce than gold, and to salt that
a certain man eats salt Is to say that
he is very rich. Yet the people there
have existed for ages and have en-
joyed the best of barbarous health
without using salt from infancy To old
age. Salt is not in nse In Siberia as q
common constituent of food, and the
same was true of the North American
Indians previous TO the discovery OF
the continent by the Europeans, and
for many years after, and Is still true
of the Pampas Indians Of South
America.

CLIMATE or ALASKA.
Not So Bad ~ That Of N Great Many
More Souihsrm Places

Alaska, like Great Britain, does not
depend upon latitude alone for her
temperature. The Gulf Stream OF
the Atlantic has its counterpart in the
Kuro-Siwo or Japanese Black Stream,
and this lempers the wind and warns
the atmosphere along the coast south
of Behring Strait. You may look for
rain as in England, Ireland and Scot
land, but you need have no fear of
freezing, even in the depths OF win
ter. The highest temperature at
Sitka, the capital, on Baranoff Island,
is 70 degrees. The lowest tempera-
ture in 1886 was four degrees below
zero; In 1887 the mercury did not go
below zero at all. Mr.. Mclean, the
excellent Signal Service officer, who
was stationed at Sitka for several
years, says that the climate of South
eastern Alaska Is the most equable
that he has ever experienced.
The interior is in the same latitude
as Norway, Sweden and st. Peters
burg, and not much cooler than por-
tions OF Montana, so / have been as
sured. The coast scenery Is wonder
ful and unique. On the Atlantic we
boast OF Mount Desert, because IL is
na island adjoining the mainland
and rejoices la a mountain that slopes
down 10 the sea, and on which there
Is lake. From British Columbia 10
Behring Strait this wonderful inland
sea of the Pacific Ocean Is one pro
longed Mount Desert, with Alpine
SHOWS in addition. The Alaska gla-
ciers, mountains, islands and cas-
cades make 1t a country of more than
usual interest for variety of scenery.
In Switzerland a glacier is a vast bed
OF dirty. air -ho.eJ ice That has fastened
itself like cold porous plaster to the
side Of an Alp. Distance alone lends
enchantInent TO the view. In Alaska

The Company own 5000 feet of
placer ground in Robinson Canyon,
commencing at the mouth Of the
canyon and running 5000 feet along
i's course to the Joanna mine. They
have sunk two shafts-onc about 1000
feet from the mouth of the canyon,
and at u depth of 45 feet find large
quantities of black sand, with good
prospects of fine gold, and have not
reached bedrock. Shaft No. is about
5000 feet from the mouth of the
CANYON and the rim rock WAS struck
at depth of 30 feet. This prospects
well in coarse gold and is getting
richer as depth is attained On the rim
rock. Several rans taken out OF the
incline going as high ms 30 cents to
the pan-the gravel averaging about
s cents To the pan--leaving no doubt
that the channel IL rich. Some pieces
ON the rim rock weighed as high as
Is cents. The company Is going To
start several other shafts to thoroughly
prospect their ground, and have every
confidence of finding placers that will
rival the richest spots in California in
the palmiest days.
The recent storms and heavy snow
have retarded prospecting, but the
company has determined to have
things in shape to take advantage OF
the spring thaws, aud will sluice
enough dirt to prove beyond doubt
that the ground is dividend-paying
investment.

To he able to look at a pleasure,
yet to keep it at arms length for
the sake of brother, is the highest
attainment of discipline. The dis
ciplined man enjoys the spoils of a
large conquest-in conquering him
self he has conquered his principal
foe. He can look at the forbidden
tree, acknowledge that it is pleas
ant to the eyes, and, probably, a
tree to be desired to make one wise,
and vet tell the damning serpent
that there is no folly so great as
the wisdom which comes through
violated love. The fear is that the
disciplinarian may become un-
genial in Judgment. The man who
has cut off his right hand may be
tempted to think that other men
should cut off their right hands;
and the man with one eye may
think it hard that other people
should have two. One of the main
purposes of discipline is to give
men firmer control over their
critical faculty when they institute
a comparison between themselves
and others.
