"A meeting of the county commiss-
toner's was held last Monday at the re-
quest Of some of our citizens who wished
them to reconsider an order, which they
had made, authorizing the purchase by
the county of $1,000 of our court house
bonds which had been disposed of. 1t
appears that there is about that amount
OF money in the treasury. The commits
sioners thought it would be good business
policy and for the interest of the county
to make this amount productive in some
way. Those who opposed the proposition
thought the better way was to decrease
the tax levy for the coming year instead
of using the surplus in purchasing bonds.
The commissioners listened very patiently
to the argument, and the best of feeling
prevailed throughout We don't know
what the commissioners may do, but all
are satisfied that they will do only what
they consider to be for the best interests
Of all concerned.

BOOTHS SCHEME.
Another Attack on The Leader Of The Sal
YatiOl Army.

LONDON, Dec. 26 The Times publishes a
three-eolumn article severely criticizing Cen
eral Booths scheme of social regeneration
as set forth in his book, "In Darkest En-
gland" The writer Of the article saws:
General Booth cannot think he is to be
authorized to collect by force the moral
lunatics-irredeemable slaves of vice. crime
and drink. He cannot expect us TO believe
he can compel TO WORK, men who admittedly
Will not work, or that any colony of such
men, even under the stimulus Of the lash.
coulp be compelled TO be self-supporting
The article accuses Booth of childike
ignorance of farming and recklessness in
entering on contract for the purchase of
land for farm-colony at Gl5 per acre. An
editorial states that the article is the first in
stallment Of a critical examination of the
scheme by a well-qualified writer, and saws:
=" We do not affect to regard the scheme
with anything but profound distrust. We
urge the public not to conclude, in n fit of
hysterical emotion, that Booth deserves to
be intrusted with an immense sum of
money, but wait and hear everything that
can be urged against the scheme"

SCATTERED SENATORS.
Action on the Elections Bill Likely to Be
Blocked for Some Time

Action on the Elections Bill Likely to Be
Blocked for Some Time
WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-The holiday sea-
son has afflicted the Senate heavily in the
matter OF attendance But seven Senators
put in an appearance at the north wing of
the Capitol today. Itwas understood when
the Senate adjourned Wednesday until Sat-
urday that its session tomorrow will be
purely formal, and in fact was ordered ouly
to escape the constitutional limitation of an
adjournment over three days, SO nothing is
to be done until Monday, and then the Eec-
tions Bill will be taken up again.
Republican Senator, who is a strong
champion of the bill, said: I'VE will go on
talking about the bill next week, and many
speeches will be delivered to vacant seats
and empty galleries. We can't help it, you
see. for the proceedings the other night,
when Hoar tried to drive the Democrats
into night session. was proof conclusive
that we could not muster in force during the
holiday season, but l believe that about
January 9Th we shall have fighting quorum,
and then you may look for division" The
Senator was asked if majority could be
secured for the cloture resolution. He re-
piled: Senator Aldrich who has it in
charge, has been instructed to canvass the
Republican side OF the Senate before putting
in the new rule. Senator Aldrich is cool
headed. shrewd man, and it is hardly to be
presumed that he will enter into as great
struggle as this promises to be without some
sort of assurance that sufficient power is
behind him to win victory"
OF the Senators assembled, the consensus
of opinion, especially on the Democratic
side, was that debate on the Shipping Bill
would be prolonged to much greater extent
than has been expected, many representa-
tives on both sides of the house having sig
nifed their desire to deliver speeches upon
that measure.

Big TREE GROVES.
Troops Asked For to Protect Sequoia Ii-
tiOnal Park From Destruction.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Andrew Caldwell,
Special Agent of the General Land Office.
who was appointed to make an investiga-
ton as to the giant trees (Sequoia gigantea)
In Stockton and Visalia land districts in
California, reports that In the Visalia dis
trict there is one small and one large grove
OF giant trees. The latter is virgin forest
and contains over 1900 giant sequoias and
many more small trees. Some five years
ago cooperative colony located about
forty entries in the neighborhood, and is
constructing a road to this timber belt
The colony, it is asserted, numbers about
600 members, and has recently engrafted the
Bellamy idea as its leading attraction.
There is danger. the agent believes, that
these people, If unmolested, will soon de-
stroy this most wonderful and perfect body
of gigantic trees in the world. In table,
giving the number and size of trees in the
groves visited, only those 45 feet in circum-
ference and more, measuring three feet
from the ground, are classed as giants
or these 2675 were found. Forty arc over
eighty feet in circumference and several are
more than one hundred One is 1O6
feet in circumference or more than
50 feet in diamter. 1t is stated that the
so-called Bellamy colonists. who have
in part perfected their title TO the lands on
which these trees stand, have expressed
their intention to .iod their claims in spite
of all opposition.
Secretary Noble has received the follow
ing letter:
