FIVE years is long time for an over
taxed farmer on mortgaged farm, using
corn for fuel, to wait for better times
but here is prediction by G. Wood
Davis in the May Forum which may
bring cheer to some depressed tiller of
the soil: "Our domestic consumption
will absorb the entire product of cereals,
potatoes and hay. within five years from
January, 1890, and thereafter agricul-
tural exports will consist almost wholly
of tobacco, cotton and animal products,
the volume of which will shrink as con-
stantly, if not IN the Same degree, as
home consumption increases. To most
people it would probably appear quite
absurd even to suggest that much with
in ten years it will be found necessary
to import large quantities Of wheat to
feed the ever-increasing population; but
such will be the logical sequence of the
necessity of employing wheat fields in
the growth of other staple crops, and of
the virtual exhaustion Of the raw ma
terial from which farms are developed.
Does not the evidence show that before
this decade is half spent, all the prod
ucts Of the farm will be required at
good prices, that lands will appreciate
greatly in value, and that the American
farmer will enter upon an era OF pros
perity the unlimited continuance of
which is assured by the exhaustion of
the arabic areas?"

What It Indicates.

BosroN, April 3o.-[Special. The stock
holders at the annual meeting of the Union
Pacific railroad day reelected the entire
old board of directors and in the place of
David Doves, of New York, put Marvin
Hughitt, president Of the Chicago and
Northwestern railroad. The selection of
such an out and out Vanderbilt man
occasioned much comment. The company
assert that as the Union Pacific has entered
into traffic combination with the North
western it was therefore right that the latter
company have representative. The street
did not see it in that light and insist that it
is the beginning of a combined attack of
the New York Central and Union Pacific to
capture the Oregon Transcontinental road
and fight the Northern Pacific and Cana
dian Pacific by virtually duplicating it, and
all sorts of deals and combines are seen in
the air.

PRESIDENT HARRIsoN's reasons for
vetoing the Dallas public building bill
are good and sufficient. There have
been too many indiscriminate appropri-
atoms for public buildings, and congress
seems to proceed on some system of
inverse ratio, giving the biggest build
ings to the smallest towns. Mr.. Dickin-
son, postmaster-general under the last
administration, strongly favored pub
lie building for every town where the
government paid in rentals a sum suffi-
Gent to pay interest on the cost of a
substantial building. He believed the
government, like a thrifty householder,
should build whenever it was good econ
omy to do so. There would be no fault
to find with large appropriations for gov
eminent buildings were they wisely dis
tributed according to the needs of the
several communities. Under a fair sys-
tenn of appropriations Helena would get
three times the amount now allotted to
this city, and many other towns not one
tenth OF the sums voted to them by cor
rupt, log rolling combinations.

THE city administration only exists
for year, and no time should be lost in
getting to work. We believe the mass
of our citizens, regardless of party, want
to see the new machinery start. The
largest share OF responsibility rests upon
the mayor, and there is no reason why
his appointments should not be prompt
ly confirmed, unless there is evidence of
the personal untitness OF the nominees
Democratic pickering at least should
cease. The mayor and his party asso-
ciates in the council should work to-
gether. There may be one or two re-
publica an aldermen of such narrow par
tisanship that they think it good policy
to obstruct the organization of the new
administration, but they don't represent
public sentiment, and they viii find it
profitable to themselves to desist from
their foolish course. Get down to bust
ness.

CONCERNING PAVEMENTS.
A Correspondent Tells of the Preference of
London Jehus.

A Correspondent Tells of the Preference of
London Jehus.
To The INDEPENDENTS: In view of the
paving of Helena thoroughfares, perhaps
the following may be interesting to some of
your readers. The much vexed question of
what is the best kind of road pavement for
the streets of cities having heavy and inces-
SAINT traffic, has been referred to body of
experts from practical experience, consist
ing of London omnibus drivers, cabbies
and van drivers. Within the limits of Lon
don, in one street or another, every material
that the mind can devise is to be found,
and each has its especial advocates. Out of
some 800 or more responses, less than POO
favor those horrible granite cubes, which
are the terror of householders. the cyclist,
and almost shatter the nerves of the omni-
bus conductors inside fare" Wood
paving is most largely recommended, no
eating it. Macadam has found but 215
supporters. and asphalt only 81. But when
it comes to declaring the worst material
the verdict is absolutely that of asphalt.
1t is condemned as the least satisfactory
and the most dangerous by more than 1000
drivers where but 10 are opposed to wood.
As the above statistics prove they have de-
clared by large majority IN favor of wood
pavements, and they also declare that
asphalt is the worst material for the pur-
pose. Many a poor horse has broken
limb or even injured spine by struggling
along ON wet day over an asphalt pave
ment on which no foothold could be got.
A wooden pavement has the advantage that
light gravel sprinkled over it in slippery
weather is more or less crushed into the
surface, which is thereby roughened, while
it makes no impression on the iron face of
asphalt. Then the wooden pavement is
more yielding than that of asphalt and
consequently gives less conclusion to the
horses hoofs and pasterns and nothing
wears out a horses legs and feet
sooner than dead conclusion. Granite
sets are as hard as asphalt
but by giving broken surface they afford
a better foothold than the smooth asphalt.
The wooden pavement consists of round
pieces of Norway spruce about five feet in
length. five to six inches in diameter, driven
like piles into the ground 20 solid metallic
foundation, and SO as to form slight
curve, and the crevices between filled the
whole depth with pitch and sand.
Opinions could come from no better
source than from which these have been
derived.
No doubt the London omnibus drivers
and cabbies are right, and they ought to
know, and authorities may find them use
full when the paving of city's streets for
heavy traffic comes into question.

MAY first is the great strike day that
has been looked forward to with some
apprehension by thoughtful observers of
the times. Bradstreets review of the
situation among the wage workers is not
encouraging. It reports the number of
strikes last week as being larger than in
any previous week for two years At
the beginning OF the present week there
were more than $500 men .out" in
Chicago, OF whom 5000 were carpenters.

The Republican Dilemm ma.

The republican party, says ex-Speaker
Carlisle in the May Forum, came into
power burdened with obligations which it
finds itself unable to discharge, and the
most difficult problem it now has to solve
is how to reward it's friends and pay even a
small part of its political debts without
running the country. When out of power
it promised everything to everybody; but
there is not money enough to go around,
and as no one is willing to be left out of the
distribution or even to reduce his claim,
the situation has become quite serious
It has promised the taxpayers that it would
reduce taxation, and it has promised the
soldiers and the subsidy-hunters that it
would increase the expenditures. It
cannot do both, and it dare not refuse
to do either. It has promised the friends
of silver that it would help them to re-
move the restriction now imposed by law
upon the coinage of that metal, and it has
promised the advocates of the gold stand
ard that it would do nothing to depreciate
the value or interfere with the stability of
| our currency. In vain effort to keep both
| of these pledges, it proposes to convert the
treasury department into warehouse for
the storage of silver bullion, and to issue
receipts to be used as money. This is the
only new financial policy it has SO far de-
veloped, but its resources are not yet ex-
hausted, and if the demands of the discon-
tented become sufficiently strong, we may
have paper promises to pay issued upon de-
posits of wheat and corn, or upon farm
mortgages 1t will be difficult to satisfy
the plundered and impoverished farmer
that his claim upon the bounty of the gov
eminent is not as just as the claims of the
prosperous owner of silver mines or the
wealthy owner of ships.

Generally Expected.

PHfLADEIPH1A, April 3O.-The Bank of
America has suspended payment. The sus-
pension of the bank did not cause much
surprise, as it was known in financial cir
Giles that there had been heavy decline on
it for some days. Branch Offices in different
parts of the city are also shut up. The de-
posits are said to amount to about 800 900.
The bank was closely allied to the Insur-
ance Company of America. Tod days sus-
pension is due to rumors set afloat Satur-
day affecting the credit of President Nc
Farlane, of the insurance company.

whether they will cease work, if they do
not get the eight-hour day concession.

In his veto of the Dallas public build
ing bill, President Harrison squints
strongly toward big appropriations for
pensions yet to come. It is evident that
the president favors a service pension
bill, which, according to the best esti-
mates, will take about forty millions a
year out of the treasury, in addition to
the one hundred millions already appro-
priated. Gen. Grant insisted that no
able bodied soldier should be a govern
ment pensioner, but Mr.. Harrison lacks
the courage to make such patriotic
declaration.
