The sub-Treasury Bill.

Port DEPOSIT, JAM, -, 1891.
MIR. EDITOR-YUur reference in last
issue OF the WIG, to the Sub-Treasury
Land Bill, as defined in tho O;alo Plat
form, which is an Endorsement OF Sena-
tor S .aniord's bill, nov an issue in Con
gress, which all Farmers Alliances have
Endorsed, aad which the Wing anticipates
will further enrich Ouv luiiiiorai.cs, and
make the land spectators, can hardly
materiaiize, for tAe reason that the Al
lance and Senator Stanford Land Bill
are one, for the loans ID DE on improved
farms, wh;ch capital will show where
mortgages, bonds at a premium and
wa;ered stocks escaping taxation caa be
obtained. Admitting that cur million
aires put their personal Into lands, under
Sab TREASURY L .nd Bill, at q per cent.
interest To reiEvest in more lands and
real estate, il would be = condition which
the farmers and laboreIs would gladly
welcome, for then there would be an ad
vance in price Of lands, and more work
for the laborcrs, and they all would be
tax payers, the farmer and millionaire
alike. What the Country wants is money
seeking investment in lands and business
Instead of mortgages.
The opposition Of the Representatives
ID Congress Of the mouied interest to
the Sab Treasury, and Silver Bill is Ger
tain proof, that they are opposed to any
conditions, which effect their interest, or
tend to help the agricultural interest, a
contracted condition OF our currencV.
Why the lenders axe FUR excellence with
them, the agricultural interest III this
Country, being about ] of the wealth of
the Country, paying so per cent. of the
taxes, will welcome any condition that
will eqna!ize taxes or Influence our mil
lionaTes to invest il improved farms,
manufacturing, etc. At present there
are too many Shylocks and too much in
vested III spec ulation, looking for divi-
dends, instead Of profits, accruing from
honest business transactions. The farm
ers should not be opposed to a Sub
Treasury Land Bill even if our million
aires become land buyers.
Very truly,

About Signing Applications Tor
License.

WooDLAwN, MD, JAN, 20, 1891.
Mr.. EDIToR-I would like to ask few
questions through the medium OF your
paper.
FIRST, How is it that the name of Que
man is seen ttCics in the list of names Of
those who approve bonds for those par-
SONS applying for liquor license, when
the law as published in former issue of
your paper distinctly says that no ore
shall sign for more than one applicant
during the current year?
Second, Does not the Law require that
those who take out license must be of
good moral character?
Third, Is person who has just paid
the penalty CT breaking the laws Of his
State and County, supposed to have a
good moral character?
Perhaps you OF some of your numerous
correspondents can answer these queries,
as think it is subject which should be
investigated. INQUIRER.

Representative
A Fire Alarm System will be
Proposed to the Council
Pickpocket Caught
Cabmen Tell Strange Stories
About Highwaymen.--
Suits Filed

Mr. II. II. Allen, representing the Inter
state Fire Alarm Telegraph company will
display his apparatus and the workings
thereof to the New Whatcom city council
at special session on Friday afternoon.
The putting In of an alarm system, since
consolidation Of the cities and the large
area enclosed by the city limits, has al
most grown a necoSsitv. The main OBJ
iect Of fire department is TO be on the
alert and check any blaze in its start.
This requires rapid mode Of commuui-
cation with the department, derived from
a well-working telegraph system. The
efficiency Of department increases with
the perfecting Of its appliances.
Mayor Jenkins yesterday looked at
some samples Of city bonds After the
bonding OF the city the municipal council
will devote its attention to tie perfecting
OF the sanitary condition of the city.
Plans and estimates will be prepared for
complete sewerage net, and regardless of
cost the problem will be carried out.
After the perfectiug Of the former, the
completion OF the latter, the ample water
supply and the running Of StreetcarS pro-
PEELED by electricity, New WhatcOm will
have made the remarkable leap from two
small towns to city that occupies the
front rank in the state and looks toward
a future OF importance.

Highwaymen Stories

A rumor has gained ground Of late
that some Of the crooked element on the
bay have formed themselves into gang
OF road agents, who ON dark nights way
lay hack and Quincy drivers with the
intention of relieving them Of the money
and yaiuables on their persons. One OF
the drivers OF the Quincy Cab ard Trans
fer company Of New WhatcOm. stated 10
a reporter that on a night, after return
ing from tairhaven, where he had taken
load Of passengers, and leisurely driving
back, an Individual stepped from the
darkest portion on the road and from be-
hind, called out To the driver. "hOld on
partner" The driver thinking 10 might
be belated passenger, drew up the rpius
previous To coming 10 a halt At that
time a side movement OF the horses at
traccd his attention. Another iudiyid
ual Mad appeared at the horses head and
was about to take hold of the lines. when
the driver came TO he conclusion that all
was not well whipped up his horses and
kept them on a run until be had reached
the top OF the hill. Looking back no
sign OF the pair could be seen. Another
driver relates a similar instance ana adds
that at all times when having any calls
TO Falrhaven during the night. he goes
armed.

chances of obtaining plumber and where IL
will be secure. 1t then discharges little
drop of glutinous fluid, and creeps up the
wall, joining the thread from one wall to

the spider next makes a number of threads
parallel to the first, and then crosses them
with other threads, the sticky substance of

them, when newly made to each other.
IL now commences TO double and treble
the threads that border its web, securing
the edges as 10 does So Lastly, 1t forms a
kind Of tunnel with webbing. This is TO
serve as a retreat where it can conceal it
self from its enemies, and also from its
prey and is generally placed in the angle
of the walls. When the spiders work is
done it often happens that the approach Of
some large animal or the passage Of the
housemaid's broom will destroy in a min

As the danger is passed away the spider pa

For this purpose the spider is provided
with a store Of the glutinous matter Of

the spider prefers the meDding business,

tity Of glutinous matter, and when this is
exhausted il probably cannot be renewed.

When paper making machines were in
PRODUCED, and the use of molds was aban-
doned, sheets came to bemade of all dimen-
sions. As a result quartos and octavos had
all sorts of dimensions, and the terms,
when used strictly to indicate how the
sheet was folded, became worthless as des-
ignations Of size. The use of the old terms
was nevertheless not abandoned; but in
stead they were first used to indicate a
rather wide range Of sizes, and finally were
attached to certain more definite sizes,
without reference to the method of folding.
