REPUBLICAN sTEERERs.
They Propose to Steal Seats in the Senate
IL Thev Can.

II They Can. N
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.-It is stated
that the Republican Steering" COM
mittee, composed of Senators Hoar,
Mcmillan, Chandler, Teller and Mitch
a has come to the conclusion that
while it cannot offer the states of the
northwest any material relief, it will
keep itself in shape to protect the inter-
ests of the people when the matter
comes before the senate for action, A
member of the committee said this
evening it would keep track of the situ-
alton in questionable states and be in
formed as to the real condition of affairs,
so in case of contests before the senate
they would be as fully equipped to make
a fight for seats as the Democrats who
say their committee is organized for the
same purpose.

BERLIN, Nov. 1S.--rhe sending OF
Germany's exhibit to the Worlds Fair
by way of Hamburg is said to have
caused no little uneasiness among some
persons at Chicago. 1t is feared, letters
received here say, that in this manner
cholera germs may reach the Garden
City. In view OF the gravity OF the
question the Associated Press cores
pendent thought it wise to ascertain
the extent TO which these fears were
justified.
Privy Counsellor Wermuth, Imperial
German commissioner 10 the Worlds
Fair, said thatit was truethat most OF the
German exhibits were sent by way OF
Hamburg. He said that it was the most
direct and convenient way and that
there was no danger whatever.
Prof. Koch said: at is ont Of the
the question that goods or merchandise
passing through Hamburg should carry
cholera germs, 1t has never been
known that new goods carried such
germs. Cholera may be spread by hui
man beings or By the soiled clothing or
linen OF cholera patients but never by
goods packed in wooden cases, by iron
or stone. II Chicago will take the
proper steps to keep people from in
fected districts away from the fair she
need fear no invasion OF that dread
spectre cholera. Though the German
exhibits we're carried through Ham

Do you wish to know the quickest
way to cure cold? We will tell you /.
10 cure cold quickly. it must be
treated before the cold has become set
tied in the system. The first symp-
toms are dry loud cough and sneez-
ing. The cough is soon followed by
watery expectoration and the sneezing
by profuse watery discharge from
the nose. In severe eases there is a
thin white coating on the tongue.
What to do? 1t is only necessary to
take Chamberain's Cough Remedy in
double doses every hour. That will
greatly lessen the severity OF the cold
and i'll many cases will eftectually coun-
teract it, and cure what would have

ing q crane, to spend a few hundred dollars
more to get a crane of greater power.
The Gorernor replied that he had, of course.
considered carefully the question AS to the
power of the crane which it was proposed TO
erect. He believed that no piece of machine
ry as heavy as ten tons had hitherto been i'm
ported into Santa Cruz. The heaviest i'm
ported for the Central Factory we're the boilers,
which weighed between 8 and Z tons each, the
rollers were about 6 tons each, the fv wheels
3 or . tons, the air pump about 81 tons. 1t
must be remembered that the heavier the
crane is. the more d.ificult viii be its handling.
1t would seem that the prevailing opinion"
to which the honoi able member had referred
was based on insufficient Information. Atary
rate for the present there seemed to be no ne
cessity for a heavier crane.
Mr. L1nay sald that the boilers used ut the
Factory were not Of the largest kind, they
were only ) or . ii. long. At Estate Anguilla
there was a boi.cr II it, long and 81 it. wide,
that weighed , tons.
There was a still larger one at Lower Love.
that probably weighed u tons. 1t seemed
that boiler II akers were now going in for
long, large boilers.
The Gorernor would not dispute the honor
able member statements but how often
would such large pieces be imported, and
could not these exceptional cases be dealt with
in the same way as they had before? 1t must
be remembered that the crane must suit the
usual demands likely to be made upon it, the
every day work Whether it were worth
while for a few cases to get q crane which
would he heavier to handle he would leave
it to honorable members to consider.
The Chairman asked what was tbs power
of the cranes III Bassin.
The Gocernor answered that he found he
had stated in his remarks two years ago that
the cranes here would lift 5 or e tons.
Mr.. NcDonald proposed, Mr.. Lanuy second
ed, that q Commitlee Of 3 Members should be
elected to consider the Money Bill. Nubse-
quentIy Messrs. Blaekwool, Hewitt 4 Lunny
were elected ON the Committee. Captain,

The Louisiana Planter If 2nd July has q
short article C~clIled forth BY a correspondent
on he planting Of field peas. The details. on
account of the great difference between our
methods and those Of the Southern States,
would not be ofmuch interest to our plant
ers, but We quote the concluding paragraph,
which reads thus;
"Ihe influence Of peas in Louisiana and
elsewhere in the Southern States, and seem
ingly with all crops, is like that Of clover in
the Northern States, and is a most valuable
agent in maintaining the fertility Of our
lands
This is an old story, il is true, but is ue,c.-
theleSs requires repeating again and again in
some Of the West Indian Islands. What is
true in regard to the value Of peas in Louisi-
ana is likely 10 be quite as true in regard to
their value in st. Croix. Yet we do not OBJ
serve any great use made Of the fact. In the
progressive ard prosperous little island of
Barbados we frd it otherwise. as we read in
the pamphlet recently published by order Of
the Cove nment Of St. Croix con the use Of
Manures in the cultivation Of tile Sugar Cane.
We there find, page l., al example Of tho
use Of manure on estates in Barbados and we
are told That before pl nting, is applied. 1.

crop of one Of the following plants: potato
slips, wooIly pylo, pigeon peas, indigo or
cotton, but not guinea corn Under 81 fol-
lows an account of the manure applied before
planting. Why the Barbadians do not use
guinea corn, which we have been told proves
very effective in St. Croix, we cannot say Indi-
go belong s. to the pes family ,andin the pamphlet
above referred to special attention is called to
this plant. We quote from page whereunder
the head Of green dressing, it is said Another
way in which the soil can be MANFRED is by
cultivating at times other plants in it than
those which are directly of use for this pur-
pose ought to be chosen plants of herbaceous
character, with abundant foliage, perhaps
also with deep going roots able to take up
substances from the soil which the roots Of
the useful plants cannot reach; there are used
especially such plants as possess strongly the
power of collecting nitrogen, which erhaps
procure som of their nitrogen directly from
the air. In Europe, peas, lupins, vetch-
es &c, are use. In the tropics indigo is es-
pecially recommended
All the plants named in this last quotation
belong to the pea family, and probably have

The Colonial Council held n short but rae
Their interestin meeting yesterday at which His
Excellency the Governor W is present. Among
the letters from the Government real by the
Chairman was oae which announced that His
Majesty the King had been most graojouBly
pleased to accept the adore 5ses of congratnIa-
ton from the Colonial Councils of 81. Thomas
and st. John an IF St. Croix respectively, on
the occasion Of Their Majesties' Golden We'd
ding. for which he as we'll as Her Majesty
the Queen thinko the Councils and the loyal
inhabitants Of the colonies.
The chief formal items Of business trans
acted were the re-e ection Of Messrs. Creagh
and Richter as memb rs of the School Bolrd
and the election Of MessrS. lemmmg and
Creagh to examine. the Communal accounts
for the financial year lS90-9l.
Mr.. r. l.. Merwin had petltloned the Coun-
ell to relieve him Of the obligation to SIT as
LIST Member for Ere leriksted's Country DIS
triot, to which position he had been elected.
BY a m i1ri Y Of woes the Council decided
not to grant the petition.
The chief business Of the meeting was the
discussion Of an additional Money Bill to the
Budget for l992-9}. granting $4,000 for the
purpose Of building a stone pier or wharf at
Frederiksted and putting a ten ton crane
thereon.
His Encellency the Governor said, that the
Council would be fully aware of the nature OF
the proposal. In the year before last, when
the question of erecting a crane on the new
sugar wharf was under discussion, the Council
had expressed its preference for having hat
wharf built without the crane, and having the
crane erected on another wharf. As at the
present time the passengers wharf, which
was built Of wood required repairs, there
appeared to be a good opportunity, in
stead of repairing it, to build a stone
pier in its place, similar to the. sugar
wharf. only q little larger, and on this new
pier to place a ten ton crane. In this way
Frederiksted would be furnished with facilities
for landing heavy machinery, which it had
never possessed before. lie hoped the Coun-
ell would adopt the additional Money Bill, and
he would recommend it to the favourable
consideration of the Members.
Mr. E.. L. Benjnmi" advocated the placing
of a fifteen ton crane on the pier instead of u
ten ton crane. He said it seemed to be the
prevailing opinion that it would not be long
before pieces of machinery would be imported
into Santa Oruz Weighing more than ten tons,
and the proposed crane would not be able to
lift them. It would seem better, when rect
