REPUBLICAN JUDGES.
An Opinion That President Harrison Will
Not Feel Called Upon To Appoint Any

Not Feel Called Upon To Appoint Any
Others.
'.There has been great deal of gos-
sip about the new United States judges
to be appointed, said friend of Attor-
ney-General Miller, who is urging the
appointment of Representative Payson,
land the most extraordinary claims are
set forth as to the ACCESSIBILITY of APP
pointing one or more democrats. So far
as know it has always been the custom
in this country for United States judges
to be selected from the party in power.
No president, SO far as know-certainly
from the opposition; and in spite of all
that one hears these days of the advisa-
bility of making non-political ap-
pointments for the bench the APP
pointments are really from the
nature and impor lance of the
duties performed just as political as any
that can be made. do not mean by this
that persons should be appointed who
have so little character that they can be
relied upon to decide the semi-political
questions that come before the courts in
this or that way. Far from il; such APP
pointments would be disgraceful and
do not believe any such will be made by
President Harrison. What l mean is
that persons ought to be, and 1 believe
will be, appointed who have the repub-
lican idea, as contrasted with the demo-
cratic idea, touching the powers and
functions of the several branches of the
United States government and state gov
ernments. No, I do not thing Judge
Culbertson or any other democrat will be
appointed judge by President Harrison,
certainly not with the concurrence OF
Attorney-General Miller"

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, March 21.-Sen-
ator Fair is perhaps the richest man on
the Pacific coast. His daughter Jessie
married Herman Oelrich, of New York,
and he has two sons, James, jr., and
Charles. Recently James, jr. was dis
charged from hospital where he had
been seriously ill, due to drinking.
When he was discharged some friends
persuaded him to go and see DIR. Brown.
the hypnotist, who had performed
wonders with an opium fend.
He laughed at it at first, but
went, and the hypnotizer put him under
the influence for several hours exercised
his influence on Fairs palate. At last
when Fair was brought back to con-
seriousness he was told to 60 and drink
no more. The admonition was not
necessary. Fair could not drink; the
smell of liquor was abhorrent, and when
he drank q glass of wine it acted as an
emetic. This was six weeks ago. The
brother, Charles, went to Brown and the
operation was repeated in his case with
a like result.

OTHER WASHINGTON NOTES.
A Familiar Figure Removed by Death

A Familiar Figure Removed by Death.
Death has removed familiar figure
from the treasury department in the
person of J. T. Hall of Ohio, dwarf,
who has served in the stationery division
for twenty-eight years. Mr.. Hall was
81 years old, and so diminutive that he
was not above the stature of an ordinary
boy of S or 6 years of age. He was ap-
pointed under the administration Of Sec
rotary Chase, who met him on train
coming east, and finding him unusually
bright and intelligent, offered him en-
ployment.
The little fellow was an expert at
figures, and earned a salary of 81, 400 a
year, out of which he was able to save
enough to buy some property and main
tain horse carriage. Halls bones
were Of such a peculiar composition that
they broke on the slightest provocation.
1t is stated that he sustained twenty
seven different fractures during his life
Six weeks ago he broke his leg, which
rapidly knit together, but his stomach
failed him, and this was the cause of his
death. When he was a lad of IA he had
a severe fever which stopped his growth.
His head was fully developed. He was
quiet and very witty, having bright.
pleasant word for his acquaintances at all
times.
Tho Profits of Raising Truck.
The census bureau has issued speci al
bulletin on truck gardening in the
United states, entirely distinct from
market gardening. Upwards of $780,
600, 900 are invested in this industry, the
annual product reaching value of &c.
$4,000 on the farms after paying
freights and commissions, it being real
lied upon 534, LAO acres of land. There
are employed in this industry 216,7 65
men, 1884 women and 1851 caildren
aided by 1866 horses and mules, and
$s,971 900 worth of implements. Nearly
Is per cent. of the truck produced in the
| United States comes from the belt of
counties along the Atlantic coast, from
southern Georgia and Alabama, along
the north and south lines of railroad on
the Mississippi valley, from the gulf to
Chicago. and from the celery district of
Michigan and Ohio.

every acre cleared off and ready for
putting in a crop. This is the net
cost after deducting the proceeds
from timber OF all kinds sold from the
land. AZ this statement has been
made by an organization formed for
the express purpose Of colonizing the
lands it speaks of, it undoubtedly
comes within the actual cost; and the
home seekers are crossing our coun-

soil as rich as any place in the world,

few more agricultural productions
raised than in our county; aud where
it will cost them ten times as much

Along both sides of the Ruby IF nre
the water, in most cases, is to be had
by simply conducting it over the
places where 1t now sinks, and bring
ing it to the lower grounds where
the soil is better, (being richer and
requiring less water to irrigate it) and
where agricultural products raised in
the temperate regions can be raised,
In most cases with less work than in
the Eastern States where irrigation
is not needed.
COST OF IRRIGATION.
In this county the actual cost OF irri-
eating land by storing water or by
long canals has never been deter
mined--except in the one case OF the
Squaw Valley reservoir, and canal 10
miles long leading from it;-but in
other States in the Union, farther
advanced in irrigation than we are,
carefully compiled records have been
kept OF the exact cost of every reser-
voir and canal. And from these rec
ords taken together Of all the arid
States where irrigation is carried on =,
it is found that it costs less than $40
per acre for, every acre irrigated where
the water is stored ia reservoirs and
then brought upon the land in long
canals. Add to this the cost of clear
ing off the brush and we have $3.50
per acre total cogt OF getting the land
ready for cultivation and securing the
certainty Of full crop every year in
this county; for, with irrigation crops
are always a SUCCESS when planted
