So Bill Wasn't SQUARE.

New Yorker who was out in Montana last
month was drawn on a coroner's jury to go out te
a mine and hold an inquest on the body of a mar
killed by premature explosion, says NJ Quad
in the New York Evening World. When the
crowd reached the spot it was TO find the sup
posed corpse sitting up and very much alive
Bill how's tbis?' asked the much surprised
coroner as he took in the situation.
II dunno." replied Bill.
"You amt dead, il seems"
mo"
But they said you were"

"But they sent me word and I've brought @
jury down"
well, am TO blame?'
Look here, Bill" continued the official in an
injured tone, this il the third time inside of q
year I've trotted out here TO hold an inquest on
you and been monkeyed with. Don't let il
happen again. I've no time to fool away in this
fashion. If you are going to get killed, go at il
and have it over with; il you amt. then stop
this monkey-work, or you an I'll have trouble.
BIZ growle led that he was doing the best he
could under the circumstances, and that he was
not the man to make anybody needless trouble
and the coroner took the New Yorker aside and
said;
Il am sorry. but you see how it is. He ought
to be dead but as he isn't we have got to call
the inquest off.
20, that's all right ! was quite willing to
come out as one of the jurors.
Sorry to put you to the trouble. as said be-
fore; but Bill is one of the ISeanest critters on
this side-hill. There's no counting on him,
though I'll get him in course of time. Going to

Virginia republicans intend to make
another desperate effort to fire the Hon.
Billy Malone out of the control of the party
which he has held under an absolutely auto
cratic sway for the past ten years. In a
recent manifesto sent out from Washington
in the interest of the more reputable ele-
ment of the party, the statement is made
that "Mahone's traitorous declaration that
the Republican party in Virginia would
nominate no state ticket this year has caused
| leading members of the organization, who
do not believe that the party was formed to
retreat. to issue a call for a new con-
veption at Roanoke on Oct l." This call is
issued at the request of 1000 Virginia re-
publicans who voted for Harrison
for President, and is signed by
names we'll known outside the
state as we'll as within. 1t is designed to
enlist national sympathy in the effort of
the real republicans in Virginia to throw
off the burden of Mahoneism. or the
sgners Col. Parsons and Mai. Hine we're
union officers, and since the war both have
been prominent business men. Col. Parsons
/ is especially we'll known as Blaine man.
OF the other signers Gen. Roller. Maj Nc
Mahon and Col. Tompkins were confederate
officers. Another, Charles K. Lee, is a
nephew Of Gen. Lee. Ex-Congressmen
Yost and Bowden also sign. Those calling
this convention are careful TO explain that
they are not making war on Malone. On
the contrary they propose to ignore him by
declaring that his act of surrender
has forfeited his position as chairman Of the
republican organization in Virginia. 1t is
impossible, however, to conceal the fact
that behind the struggle lies the control Of
the Virginia delegation to the next republi-
can convention, and it is this fact which
gives piquant interest to the coming Vir-
ginia campaign. So it will be seen that
the friends of Blaine are not neglecting even
the most trivial opportunities in their de-
termined efforts TO have an overwhelming
Blaine majority at the forthcoming presi-
Dental convention. 1t will be remembered
that in return for the patronage Of the state
the Hon. Billy. Malone had very neatly ar
ranged for a Harrison delegation. But, as
of yore. the "best laid plans O. men and
mice gang aft aglee."

Limits for the Hours of Labor.


Again has that useless and Improbable
question of the proper legal number" Of
working hours been brought into discus
sion. According to a recent paper on the
| subject read in New York by DR.. Arlldge
before the American British Association
the exact equities of the proposition con-
stitute an intricate and perplexing mystery
that yet remains unsoived. Still, it does
not so appear to the practical observer of
everyday events with less elaborate theories
to develop and less pretentious scientific at
tainments to deliberately assort and alter
nately apply.
Manifold potent reasons preclude any
attempt to regulate by law the number of
hours that person shall occupy at labor.
In the first place each individual is gener-
ally qualified by nature and fully empow-
cred by the constitution of the United
States TO be his own best Judge of the num-
Der of hours that be can safely and salts
factorily engage in work This is largely
influenced by the physical condition of the
worker and the character of the work-not
infrequently tempered somewhat by pecu-
mary considerations.
No state has any more right to say how
long man shall work than it has to say
what work he shall do-except in so far
as the law may apply to employees of the
state. Were such legal regulation posi-
BILE the state would have an equal right tc
say how man should pass his time when
not at work, and likewise restrict his com.
pensatiou to certain limit and make sc
much actual toll compulsory to the veal
and the strong alike. Thereby would the indi-
vidual be largely deprived of that liberty
and the pursuit of happiness" which oul
national constitution is supposed to secur,
to every citizen without regard to race
color or previous condition of servitude."
Besides these considerations, the necessities
of some occupations and industries require
| different and longer hours than others. AL
lowing the state to dictate the number o
hours of work it could with equal justice
name which hours Of the day should be thu
occupied. On general principles those hour
nearest the diurnal meridian would probabl,
be designated. By such law the railway
hotel, theater, restaurant and morning news
paper would be practically legiSlated out o
existence.
Such a law would need to be exceedingl,
intricate to meet all requirements, eve
when we assume that it could be made t
work at all.

Topographic intelligence from Washing
ton apprises US that the census bureau has
in press a bulletin showing the production
of hops in the United States. This buIletin
was prepared by Mr.. Daniel A. Raw under
the supervision of Mr.. John Hyde, special
agent In charge of the division of agricult-
Ire These statistics show that hops are
grown for commercial purposes in seven
teen states. In the year 1889 about SO, 2O2
acres Of land were cultivated in hops, produc-
ing 80, 16S, go pounds. New Y ork heads the
2ist with $500 acres, yielding 20,O63, 020
pounds. With 5,113 acres under cult
walton Washington produced crop
of s,313 $50 pounds; California had
1874 acres, producing 6,547 1888 pounds;
Oregon. 3, $50 acres. with 1913, 72O pounds
aud Wisconsin, 967 acres, with 42S, SAT
pounds. These five states, known as the
bop-growing states, produce 9915 per cent.
of the entire crop of the United States.
Since 1850 the increase in the crop of Cali
fornia was 5,l03, PSI pounds; in Oregon,
{, 1853, 345 pounds; and Washington, $780,
003 pounds. Within the same period the
decrease in the crop of New York was
pounds. This bulletin also contains statistics
of the hop crop Of the year 1890, presented
for the purpose Of comparison Of yield and
value with those of 1889. In 1890 the total
yield was 36,S57.S 54 pounds, being
1905, 4l6 pounds less than in
1889. From the crop Of 1890, how.
ever, the cash realized was 81, 102, 124,
while the crop of 1889 was sold for only
s4,O56, 497. This great difference resulted
from the low price in 1889 and the high
price in 1890. In 1889 the average price
per pound was about 10 cents aud so cents
in 1890. Wisconsin has refrigerated in rank
as hop-growing state from e production
of 1880. 155 pounds in 1869 and l 1866, s27
pounds in 1879 to 42s,547 pounds in 1889.
But the three Pacific coast states have rap
idly increased in Importance in hop pro-
duction as follows: 1869, 64O,971 pounds
1879, 2,S91,725 pounds; 1889, Is. IA. ga
pounds. Therefore it is not Inappropriate
to state that our hops are still active if not
very high.
