SoMI American sheriff has got a for tune waiting for him in Greece. Over there the people high and low abhor an executioner and the government has great trouble to enforce capital punish ment. The last capital execution occurred in 1881, also after long wait for an in dividual who was willing to perform it. A man named Mossonier who had killed his wife, offered to serve the state as ex- ecutioner for a pardon, and he guillo- tined seventeen murderers, the accumu- lation of five years, dearth of an execu- tioner. There are now five murderers awaiting the penalty in Athens and eleven others in the rest of Greece. They all will before long suffer death at the hands of pardoned assassin named Roukis, the Athenian convicts being at. tended to first, and then the executionel embarking on a man-of-war for a voy. age along the coast, stopping here and there for a journey into any interior town needing his services. So uncom promising is the national detestation oi an executioner that even on the man of-war ,Roukis will be protected from furtive assaults by the crew by being bound in an iron cage.

THE Cape May Improvement company pays the president we'll for marching around in the style of the sandwich man with an advertising placard on each side of him. We learn from the New York Tribune that the gift cottage was well stocked with provisions and that the president of the improvement company has lent the president of the United States his $1 600 Brewster landau and handsome "pair of Kentucky bays. Perhaps the president of the improve ment company could be induced to give the president of the United States a suit of clothes.

ONE of the most serious objections urged against Speaker Reeds device for procuring quorum was that the speaker was likely to see things that didn't exist, and count as present, mem- bers who were absent. Several mistakes of this kind occurred last winter and another has just occurred. Speaker Reed directed the clerk to record MT Forman, of Illinois, as present and not voting when the customs administration bill was passed. MT Forman has since stated on the floor of the house that he was at his home in Illinois when that vote was taken. Under the Reed re- gime the house journal has ceased to be n record of the house, and is simply a record of the speaker.

sTAUNTON VIRGINIA,
A Stupendous Growth.

New York Press.
The eleventh census will show the
most stupendous growth in the popula-
ton OF cities ever witnessed in any
country on the globe. Those who are
spreading the vicious falsehoods about
the census methods and claiming that
part of the population in large cities has
not been enumerated will, within a few
weeks. when the official count is pub
lished, be ashamed of their own criti-
cism. The Census Office can well afford
to look on with equanimity. The day
is not far distant when the magnificent
totals of the population of cities will
brush away all narrow attacks on the
Census Office, and the piping of partisan
pigmies will be drowned in the grand
chorus of American citizens rejoicing at
the tremendous growth in urban popula-
ton during the last decade. The follow
ing table is made up from the estimates
made by supervisors in the several cities
Immediately after the count and tele-
graphed various newspapers This ia
BILE was compiled from at least twenty
different journals, and we believe fur
nishes as correct an estimate as is posi-
BILE at this time:
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1890-07-10

sober study of the above table shows
an increase almost unprecedented. To
European nations this growth is simply
marvellous. So accustomed are we to
advancing by leaps and bounds that the
Press regrets to find dissatisfaction,
especially in what are known as ''the
boom towns" Here, for example, is
Birmingham, Ala, struggling village
OF 5000 inhabitants in 1880, transformed
into splendid city of $4,000, a tsnfold
increase. Duluth. not big enough in
1880 to be classified with cities of over
1900 population, shows up in 1890 with
10000 population. Chattanooga goes
from 1000 to $4,000, an increase of $50
per cent Atlanta nearly doubles it's
population, with nearly all the other
growing Southern towns and cities either
doubling or increasing at the rate of 70
and SO per cent. Chicago grandly adds
half a million to its population. The
metropolitan district, with New York as
centre, comes to the front with all adj
ditl0nal million Of SOULS. The returns
extraordinary gains and indicate that
the population of the country will not
fall short of the estimates
The complaints in Western cities of
unsatisfactory enumerations are entirely
unfopnded. Take, for example, Kansas
City, with $4,000 in 1884, Is not 14O, 600
or 145, 900, an increase of $4,000, immense :?
Omaha ten years ago had but 10000
population. The census of 1890 will
show population of 900, an increase
of over 400 per cent, or an addition of
over 10O,0 900 to the population. St. Paul
and Minneapolis, each with but little
over 10000 in 1880, now glory i'll 100000
and 1900 respectively. All through the
country the growth has been the same.
Is it not time that the foolish criticisms
on the census were stopped? Have we
no pride in this growth and no gratitude
to Almighty God for blessing this land
with peace and prosperity and material
progress during the last decade such as
no other nation ever witnessed? Must
we mar it by unworthy and totally un-
warranted partisan attacks on the bu-
reau working night and day with as
splendid corps of men aud woman as
ever were brought together for the pur-
pose of quickly and accurately photo
graphing this tremendous progress :?
Surely not. Such course is wrong.
Look at the splendid totals and rejoice.

section of Virginia. While this article contains
(as shown by chemical analysis as much Phos-
pllofic acid per ton as one and half tons of
dissolved bone, it can be sold at one third less in
price Nor is this all, for a full analysis of its
constituent parts shows that nearly all the bal
ance are of themselves a concentrated and valu-
able fertilizer consisting of Lime, derived from
Phosphate of Lime Silica, Magnesia, Oxide of

F.. it contains no moisture or impurities. In ad-
dition to the chemical tests, it has been extern
sively experimental with at the German Expert
mental Station for several years; also in the
States of Pennsylvania. Maine, and New Jersey,
with wonderful results in favor of tho .,aW Phos-
phate. The advantage of this Phos rate to a
calculating farmer will be apparent as to
need no lengthy recommendations Ia persons
having long distances to haul. Tie saving of
one ton in three will be appreciated. especially
when there is also a saving in price. II you are
