but is a more human science which collects the
facts of God and generalizes upon them. If God be
the creator Of physical nature, then whoever adds
ANYTHING 10 any science adds thus TO the science Of
Theology While the facts of Ged changeless,
mans perception Of the facts and their meaning is
changing and consequently there must be changes in
all the sciences and 50 necessarily in the department
Of theology. The Bible does for what
he could do for himself with the best in
teect and the largest research The facts there told
could never be known only through revelation
made BY an infinite God. The destruction Of the
divine authorship of nature would throw down
large portion of the structure of theology. the whole
Of which would be swept away if the divine author
ship Of the Bibe also destroyed.
In Biblical Theology the tendency is TO examine the
Bfele as any other book would be examined. This is

We notice in a report of the meeting
OF the State Board of Equalization that
Hoo. d NJ. Barrett was the author OF a
resolution requesting the Secretary OF
State to furnish the Boar'l statistics
showing the amount of fertilizer used
annually in the different counties. The
<ost Of fertilizer used annually in the
different counties has of late years be
cone very important element in the
r.is,ug of crops. BY its use poorer
lsr.ls can be made to produce crops
equal to those raised on lands Of much
greater natural fertility. In estimating
t,... productiveness of farming lands the
su, ay for fertilizer and other extra ex'
pense in cultivation or in getting it to
market, should be taken into consider
aim Capt. Barrett's resolution indi-
oates purpose to consider every Gle
inent which has bearing on the rela.
Ave value OF lands in the State. In
W. W of the large expenditure for ferti-
a,z,r and the inaccessibilitv of many
parts of the county to market, Highland
un'y can, with good grace, ask for a
reduction OF her total valuation.

By the use Of about seventy uachi9ds
mwas found possible to declare the uppt,
ulation Of the United States Id III wS31ts
after the enumeration was completed.
The work done, however, was equiva.
lent to the counting Of 125, 1000, 900 uer-
SONS, since it was deemed necessary. In
order to insure accuracy, that every
schedule should be counted twice. It
was Of course natural that the rapidity
at which the count proceeded should In
crease as the clerks familiarized them
selves with the use Of the machines.
The record of the most efficient days
work, says a writer in the Chautauquan,
shows the registration Of 1,342, ,S18 fami-
lies, or about 6,711,590 persons. TO
bring this amount of work within the
compass Of the mind so as adequately to
appreciate what It means, requires the
graphic language Of the gentleman who
invented the electric tabulstor with
which it was done. He says:
"This means that the clerks handled
about fifteen tons Of population sched-
ules. They actually turned over sheet
by sheet this mass Of paper, scrutinizing
each schedule, often correcting the er.
rors of the enumerators and recording
the data on the machines, besides max
ing numerous transfers to result slips
and attending to many other details Of
the work. An engineer might indeed
stop to calculate the number Of horse
power Of physical energy developed by
this clerical force. Or II one can not
appreciate what this means let me ask
him to consider stack Of schedules Of
thin paper higher than the Washington
monument, and imagine the work re-
quired in turning over such q pile OF
schedules page by page and recording
the number Of persons reported on each
schedule. This is what was done In ono
day by the population division Of the
Census Od3ce."

Hundreds Of Dollars Spent In Litis.tioa
Over Dollar-and-a-Ha1f Pig.
Two or three lawyers were talking Of
old lawsuits TIE other d6y, when one Of
the oldest members Of the Indianapolis
bar remarked to Journal reporter:
81 remember the Perry township pig
case that took up good part Of one
term OF court, having come up through
a Justices Office. The case was tried,
believe, by Governor Wallace, father Of
our postmaster, and there were at least
two firms of lawyers on each side. Sims
Colley and Thomas Walpole were in the
case, and, so far as Mr.. Colley was con-
cerned, he was then in the full power OF
his renown. The case gave him full
opportunity for the display Of his pic
turesque genius, and the drolleries he
infused into it long furnished matter OF
laughter for the bar. Mr.. Colley, how
ever, no matter how absuryily droll he
might become, never lost sight Of the
best interests of his client, and certainly
never lost sight of his own in the shape
Of as fat q fee as It was possible to OBJ
tain.
."The question was about the identity
Of q shote, /" continued the lawyer. "The
witnesses on one side swore Il was . pig
In barnyard, and had never been
out until II had been put into q
pen, from which Il was taken to be
slaughtered. The witnesses on the
other side swore that they Nd. known
It from the time It was q sucking. But
the great point was the proof Of an ear
mark One claimant, sustained by one
set of witnesses, said he marked an eaz
Of the shote with his pocket-knife, and
the cut was explained at great length
to the jury. The other claimant aid
the mark on the ear of his shote wa
torn by the teeth of . dog. II was at
this stage Of the testimony that . senss-
tional feature was introduced. One
witness, having brought his testimony
to an exciting point, added climax BY
pulling from his pocket . picked pigs
ear, which he declared to be the ear Of
the shote In question. This created Q
great uproar in the courtroom, - the
effect Of this pictorial testimony upon
the jury could not be measured The
witness with the ear was, however,
measurably discredited, and the case
went on. Medical experts were called
in to testify as to what the difference in
appearance would be between shote's
ear cut with q knife and one torn
by the teeth Of q dog. The
experts did not agree and tho Jury dis
agreed, and another trial was held the
second jury disagreeing as the first had
done. Charges Of perjury were made
on each side and . number Of assault
and battery cases grew out of The
costs OF litigation were between four
hundred and five hundred dollars on
each side." "a :,
"What was the shote worth?" o.
about one dollar and fifty ceats;
but the litigants were fighting foz
principle" ~

An Indian Ark.

The Messiah craze among the Indians
Of the North, West and Northwest re-
wives interest in any thing that pertains
to the queer delusions and beliefs that
have been rife among the different
tribes for the last century. It is remem-
bered now that in 1888 the Sanpoels, .
small tribe in what was then Washing
ton Territory, became greatly agitated
over the teachings of an old chief who
professed to believe that another food
was near at hand. He said that the
Great Spirit had commanded him to
collect tribute and build an ark that
would outride the waves. His great
canoe, 112 x 2ss feet, is still to be seen
in an unfinished condition near one Of
the tributaries of the Columbia.

We agree with the examiners OF the
Commissioners report in their main
eonclu> ion that the county Commission
ers should exercise the severest economy
in the administration of that part of the
county funds for which they are respon
sible; that they should conform strictl.
20 the law in itemizing each bill and
should exercise rigid inspection OF
every bill before it is allowed, thus
avoiding all possibility of any mistakes
We had already called their attention
% the fact that tive Of the county funds
" r. overdrawn and that it would re
auire very careful management in order
60 keep them from running farther into
debt.
IT. is not our intention, however, to
stop with the Commissioners. Itshould
be borne in mind by those who are apt
to get excited over the tax question that
a large part of the responsibility rests
s.. at home. The county tax, for
which alone the Commissioners are re
sponsihIe, is S 7.lO mills, which is less
than half, and in many cases only about
one-third of the whole tax assessed in
any tow nship. Leaving out the State
tax, which is 9 7.1O mills, the remainder
Is levied by township Trustees and
School Boards and is expended by them
During tax panic township officers
are lost sight of. 1t is forgotten that
they have any money to spend. The
Commissioners are more easily seen.
Their books are open to inspection.
There is an examination and therefore
an expectation OF some terrible discovery
once year. The hue and cry goes
after them while the township Trustee
may be quietly getting in his work right
AiOag, in proportion to his ability and
to the amount he may have to handle
A study Of the rate table showing the
xate of taxation published in the NEWS
HERALD through October will show what
proportion of taxes is levied and ex-
pended within the township independ
ont of the county control. The same
"rigid economy" which is so freely rec
ommended to the county officials
Ghouid be prescribed to the officials of
the township as we'll. Let the taxpayer
bear this in mind as he makes his an.
dual tax complaint.
