THE SUGAR nuTY

1t has been apprehended that the grip
given the sugar trust by the duty on re-
fined sugar would enable it to so manip-
ulate things that it could gradually
work up the prices. The figures have
recently started on the up grade. Some
imagine that the trust will be able to
pretty nearly neutralize the advantage
to the consumers of free raw sugar, al
though that would give it the enormous
profit of two cents more per pound. The
s50,000,000 taken out of the treasury
would simply be transferred to the
pockets Of the trust. The legislative
and judicial efforts to get the better of
this sugar trust have been safely eIuded,
and whatever it is able to accomplish in
the elevation will be clear gain. 1t
should be one of the first measures of
the next congress to remove the duty
from refined sugar. The trust will still
manage tie find some sweetening in the
situation.

THE official legislative and erudite
minds in Massachusetts have wrestled
with two great problems of late. The
first is whether the drunk will come
soonest standing or sitting; and the
other, how to get rid of the gypsy
moth. The moth makes trouble with
some of the farm products. The plan
apparently adopted is to introduce the
japanese fly, said to be a devouring
enemy Of the moth. 1t may prove a
greater nuisance than the moth, as in
the case of the English sparrow.

Lon Merritt, of Oneota, was around the
city yesterday accompanied by several gen.
tlemen interested in his suit to gain posses

nesota, claimed to have been illegally granted
to Attorney Jameson and Others Mr. Mer
rift said in regard to the matter: sit is one of
the worst land steals ever heard of, and
have heard of good many in that section
OF the country. 1t seems to have become
fad among certain class of men who lack
the pluck necessary to become pioneers and
seek out these lands to watch the operations
OF prospectors, and, when they make a strike,
to endeavor to get in ahead of them and gain
possession of the land on some legal techni.
caiity. The Jameson crowd must have OBJ
tanned their knowledge of the existence of
the lands from the filings made by the pros
pectors who located the mineral and were
waiting for their patents to be issued to the
state, that they might obtain their own pat
ents and go to work.

RAIL AND CRossTIE.

Maj w. s. Greene, chief engineer of the
Georgia Midland and Gulf, who made the
first surveys for the Alabama Georgia and
Florida railroad from Quincy, Fla, to
Bessemer, Ala, $50 miles, over year ago,
is quoted as saying thai no organization of
the road has been effected, though a charter
was secured. No officers have been elected,
and no work is being done, and the whole
enterprise is at q standstill, for the present
at least.
The latest thing out in the way of rapid
transit Is the invention of a Colorado
genius, and from the description It is a
cross between the ordinary railroad and the
Mount Carmel air ship scheme, which is to
be put to practical test in a few days. The
Colorado mans idea, in plain United States
vsrnacular, is an ordinary railroad coach,
to the roof of which is fastened balloons
shaped dome, made Of aluminium and filed
with sufficient amount of gas to overcome
the power of gravitation. In other words.
when the dome is filed with gas the car
loaded with freight or passengers, will
practically weigh nothing. This much &C
complished, it is only necessary to provide
a railroad sufficiently strong to keep train
of cars going in the right direction. There
being no weight the cars will be provided
on each side with gro0ved pulleVs instead of
wheels, and these pulleys will run upon two
rows of iron posts. The hight of the cables
Wnlcn VIII constitute the track will vary
above the ground anywhere from ten feet
to 500 feet, IL necessary. In other words, no
grading will be necessary, the cable tracks
simply spanning ravInes, canyons aud rivers
like telegraph wires. MIR. Kirchner, the
inventor, claims that he can climb the
loftiest mountains and cross the greatest
rivers on the continent with ease. There
being no weight, the two cables between
which the balloon train is suspended will
simply act as guides TO keep the train in its
proper course, and the inventor claims that,
with the aid OF some new discoveries in
locomotive power, he can easily propel
train Of cars at the rate of
200 miles an hour. He proposes to
build line of cable from Denver to New
York aud make the run from the noun
tains to the seaboard in half day, stop
ping at Chicago for dinner The stations
for the road will be built upon the ground
as ordinary railroad stations, but through
the country the cable tracks will rise to
certain hight and skim over all obstacles at
uniform level, regardless of hills or hol-
lows. AT each station gas reservoir will
be maintained, and each coach can be
charged or emptied with gas as the traffic
demands. The inventor has organized a
company, and proposes TO build q short
line at once. He expects to make the Mount
Carmel ship scheme take back seat and
stay there.
