WE ALWAYS TRY REMONSTRANCE
FIRST.

1t is objected to the course of the
TINES that it should ~ndeavor to ef>
feet the proposed reforms quietly, b,
personal remonstrance with the county
commissions etc. The fact Is
that we did, in this instance rs in
every other case when wa have crit,
cized the commissioners, demonstrates
privately with them upon their course.
Recently We demonstrated qui tly
with the commissioners at the out
set, on one question. 1t was immr.
diately after the passage Of the Alta.
Lincoln bills. 1t was plain to he seen
that litigation would follow, that the
oonssitutlonallty Of the bills would be
tested.
Mesers. Senter and Smith, as COM
snissioners OF Lincoln county, came to
HALEY for consultation. We called
on them at the hotel, and urged, first,
that they should sue for the possession
of the records as they could not or
ganize their own county without
them. They should therefore bring
= suit ION their own hook
Alturas county. we urged, was not
IN as great need Of having the ques-
tion tested Us Lincoln. Hence we
could wait. Ii the suit went against
Lincoln, we could then weigh the
conclusions OF the judges. look into
the case in oil It's bearings, and bring
suit on behalf OF Al,uras county
and, possibly, win il.
II either won it would be the maxi
ing Of the other county. II the first
case were lost, there might be chance
TO win the other.
We were overruled, ignored, laugh.
cd At. The result everybody knows.
Then as to the question OF compen.
sstion. We urged tina, in the condi>
ton OF county affairs, the bar could
properly be expected to give ite ser,
vices to the people, on the paymen,
Of costs aud other expenses. We
spoke TO the FIVE commissioners pres.
ent, each individually and separately
Told them they would do much het,e
TO cal q meeting OF the bar, appeal t,
It to take hold Of the case, and worl

Texas Angel joined his voice witt
ours. On tho Alturas hotel corne,

and felt what he said so strongly tina

Many wise and carefully considered
schemes have been brought to naught by
a few thoughtless words. A tragical
illustration of the text is furnished by
the New York Tribune. At an enter
tainment last winter gentleman well
known in financial circles happened TO
sit at a dinner next to very talkative
and sprightly young lady.
AS it fell out, they were not intro
duced to each other, but on reading the
card by the young woman's plate the
gentleman became interested, and
promptly engaged her in conversation.
He found her talk more interesting
than she dreamed of, as she ran on about
new pair of ponies she intended buy
ing, proposed trip to Europe to fit her.
self for her Newport season, and more of
the same sort-the whole thing being
nothing but lot of imaginary nonsense
begotten of desire to shine and dazzle.
When the ladies rose to go, and her
neighbor drew back his chair, he said
gravely, Il am very glad to have met
you, Miss A.. / know your father;
pray tell him have had the pleasure of
HhdklnB your acquaintance
Pleased with her supposed conquest,
Miss Vanity returned home, and at tho
breakfast table the next morning told
her people about the dinner and
Mr.. IS message. Her father, who
had seemed pale and careworn of late,
looked up with sudden interest.
Mr.. -, do you sayf1 he asked
quickly. II hope you made a good i'm
preston. That mans opinion is worth
more to me to-day than any other mans
in New York.
The poor man had been struggling
through great financial difficulties, and
had finally all but effected an arrange
ment which would once more set him on
his feet; but alas the impression"
which his daughter had produced upon
the one man whose action would COM
plete the pending negotiations was such
as TO upset the entire plan.

Wood PuIv,

Wood fiber has come into general use
as a substitute for the cotton rags and
other materials formerly employed in the
making Of paper. This fiber is called
pulp, having taken the name which used
TO be given to the cotton and linen fiber
when it had been prepared by macera-
ton for spreading into sheets of paper.
The wood fiber used to be prepared, only
few years ago, by a who. y mecha -.
process. The blocks of woou were
ground, or rasped off by action applied
obliquely TO the grain. The length Of
fiber depended partly upon the angle at
which the block was held during this
process.
In place of the old mode of obtaining
wood pulp, chemical treatment of the
wood is now in vogue. As formerly, tn.
bark is stripped from the wood to secure
fiber of uniform quality. All discolored
or decayed parts are removed for til,
same reason. Then the wood is cut
across the grain into thin chips, which
are carried to the top of the mill and
dropped into large drums about IA feet
in diameter, and "a feet long.
The drums are made strong enough to
bear pressure of from 75 to 200 pounds
TO the square inch. When a drum is
packed full of chips it is filed with sui
phuric acid and other chemicals. The
wood is converted into a cotton like prod
uct, which is then pressed dry and
mashed. II is next mixed with water.
rolled fat, and cut into shape for bund-
ling. In this condition it is said to be
made up Of 90 per cent moisture and 40
per cent fiber. In this shape it goes to the
paper mill. It Is found to be better to
pay the freight on the contained water
than to cheaper the cost of transporta-
ton by pressing out the water, for the
pulp packs hard when it is dry.
One cord of spruce wood is estimated
to make ] 200 pounds Of dry fiber, worth
from 81 to $3.50 per 100 pounds. A sui
phite plant that win use up from eight
60 Is cords of wood every "a hours costs
about $4,000.
