IT seems unfortunate for the politi-
cal interests of Belmont county that we
will have more than one candidate for
Congress. A solidly united delegation
from this, the largest county in the dis
trict, would carry an influence that
would do much to secure the support
of lesser counties for our candidate
when their own candidates fail to make
an effective showing. We do not be-
lieve that in the end the delegation
from this county will be greatly divid-
ed, but even a few delegates Topped
off from the following of the leading
candidates will have baleful effect on
the result.
If Belmont county goes into the Con.
vention solid for one man, only a very
strong combination can defeat her con-
didate; but if divided the nomination
viii probably go..elsewhere. Some other
county will reap the fruits of Belmont's
lack of unity.

HILL as possible candidate for Presi-
dent seems to be sinking into oblivion
while the sentiment for Cleveland is in
creasing. Grover keeps his ready pen
going at letters, and pops one out fol
publication here and there over the
country almost weekly. His last was
written to James 81. Bible, of Chatta
nooga, Tenn, and among other modest
things, he says: 81 have frequent mis-
givings as to the wisdom of again put
ting me in nomination" This is a
commendable shyness, and betrays
wisdom as well. Grover is the only
man who stands ghost of a show. He
ought to be nominated to make the
contest Interestingly warm.

THE visit last week of the Rev. Dr.
Parkhurst, and certain of his deacons to
a disreputable resort in New York, was
the act of fanatics. DIR. Parkhurst
seems to have entered body and soul
into tremendous fight against the au-
thorities that permit the existence of
illegal saloons and dives. But his zeal
has carried him off bis feet. To know
what is enacted in these dives it is not
necessary that man should 90 inside
and participate in the orgy. Introducing
the lawn of the clergy into such scenes
can not fail to sully it. AS President
of the Society for the Prevention of
crime, DR.. Parkhurst might have entered
these places without criticism, but as a
pastor and preacher he ought to have
kept himself aloof. 1t will require very
vigorous measures on his part to carry
out this visit and prevent him from
seeming foolishly jealous.

boiling down. These pans are 70
feet wide, 115 feet long, and IA inches
deep; and are fired at the end OF the
pan into three large arches. Each
pan consumes from 10 to 10 tons OF
coal daily, and yields from 100 TO 10
barrels of salt. The pans are "raked
for dripping" every two hours. Inc
salt is then wheeled into the store
room, where for thirty days 1t is al
lowed TO drain through perforated
floor; after which it is ready tor
packing and transportation. Ac.
cording to Messrs. Mulkey and
Vincent, TO whom I am indebted for
attentions, the output from all the
Hutchinson plants is about 7OO'OOO
barrels annually. The entire output
from the state is about l,25OOOO,
which supplies the present demand
in the territory reached; bnt II could
readily be increased to 2,OO9OOO an,
nual output If necessary. 1t should
be added that the Hutchinson Salt
Company has one of the largest ana
most complete dairy and table salt re-
tincries west of New York, supplying
the creamery trade of Iowa, Missouri,
Nebraska. and Kansas, entirely dis
placing imported brands in those
states. We regret not being able 10
furnish other than approximate es-
Inmates, but they seem to be all that
can be had at present. II is but fair
to this new and growing industry to
say that, in the opinion of the state
geologist, the actual aggregate OF
products exceeds the figures now
given. He recommends that state
salt inspector should be appointed, by
whose authority more complete re-
turns may be obtained.
