annually, while the ordinary receipts
from taxes are largely increasing.
Although an increase of $1,000 900
was paid to the school districts of the
State last year, there was balance in
the general fund of the State
Treasury on November so last of
S5,S0S,I9I,.S6. The receipts from all
sources last year were not as large as
during the twelve months ended on
November 80, 1891, but the difference
is due to the large amount then re-
celved from tie national government

A New Cure.
A German doctor has started theory
that most drunkards can be cured by a
very simple and pleasant course of
treatment, namely, by eating apples at
every meal. Apples, Dr. Tuplett
maintains, if eaten in large quantities,
possess properties which entirely do
away with the craving that all con-
tirmed drunkards have for drink. The
doctor says that in many bad cases
which have come under his notice he
has been able to effect cure by this
means, the patient gradually losing all
his desire for alcohol.

WASHINGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON, Dec. 90, 1892.
Speaker Crisp was one Of the few
prominent democratic Congressman
who ate their Christmas dinner in
Washington. This week he will 20
to New York for a few days, and there
by hangs tale, that is very discom-
forting to those gentlemen who have
been working overtime concocting
stories showing why President elect
Cleveland would oppose Mr. Crisp's
election as Speaker of the next
House. Mr.. Crisp goes to New York
upon Mr.. Clevelands personal in
vitation to confer with the president
elect about legislation that is to come
before the present House the extra
session question and the organization
OF the next House and now the
question IS being asked, why should Mr..
Cleveland wish to confer with the
Speaker if he is opposed to his re
election by the next House ? 1t
seems to be repetition of the old
story--somebody went off half,cocked.
The populist members of Con.
gress from Kansas have evidently
heard from home. At first they
were discreetly silent about the
alleged candidacy of Mrs. Lease for
the Senate: now they openly ridicule
1t, characterizing it as simply a re.
publican scheme to make the popu-
lists ridiculous.
Senator Hill is a member of the
Senate committee on immigration,
and he does not agree with the ideas
OF the majority of that committee as
to the legislation necessary. He will
soon after the reassembling of Con-
gress present his views in the shape of
minority report and will either in
troduce new bill or offer IAN amend.

Canada Demands Protection for Her

DO THEY MEAN MUCH BUSINESS
The Senate Makes Public the COrrespon.
dence and the President Says the
Question Is One of Honor.


WASHINGTON, March 25.-The senate
at 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon made
made public the recent correspondence
between England and the United States
respecting the Behring Sea controversy.
The reply of President Harrison to the
Marquis of Salisbury is signed by Acting
Secretary of State Wharton.
The president insists on the renewal of
the modus yivendi, and calls attention to
the gravity of the situation, saying that
he is not willing to be responsible for the
results of the in, istence by either govern
ment during this season on the main
tenance of its extreme rights. He adds
that the question is not one of money or
gain, but of honor and self-rcspect, and
that the proposition to exact bond from
the owners of Canadian vessels can hardly
be made seriously, and declines to dis
cuss it.
In conclusion the letter says:
"The president directs me to say that
the modus of last year is the least that
this government can accept in reason, as
restraints after a treaty of arbitration
should be more absolute than before, in
stead of less.
"The president will hear with regret
that her majesty's government continues
to assert the right to deal with this sub
ject precisely as if no provision had been
made for the settlement Of the dispute,
as in that event this government, as has
already been pointed out, will be COM
PEELED to deal with the subject upon the
same basis, and to use every means to
protect from destruction or serious injury
the property and jurisdictional rights that
it has so long claimed and enjoyed"

There are great many good and noble
men in the band of prohibitionists, yet
in political fight they do not cut much
of figure. They made noble struggle
four years ago and Rev. w. T. Walker,
the candidate for governor, made most
aggressive campaign, yet when the votes

AS WE BOOM.
What The Manufacturers Record Says
of the SOuth's Growth.

What The Manufacturers Record Says
of the South's Growth.
In its issue for this week the Manufac
turers' Record of Baltimore, presents a
summary of new enterprises started in
the South since the beginning of the
year, showing that new concerns have
been organized as follows: 1 blast fur
mace, 81 machine shops and fOundries, .
agricultural implement factories, IS flour
mills, 8 cotton mill, 9 furniture factories,
2 gas works, IS water works, 6 carriage
and wagon factories, 36 electric light
plants, 130 mines and quarries, 1913 wood
working factories, 26 ice factories, IA
canning work, stove foundries, % brick
works, miscellaneous iron working es-
tablishments, 2 cotton congresses, 10
cottonseed oil mills and 2S3 other manu-
featuring establishments of miscellane-
Gus character.
Commenting upon these figures, the
Record says: 1--WE want to disabuse our
readers of the idea that the South is boom
ing, and in place of this impression we
desire TO prove to the world that the
South is developing steadily, surely and
in healthy manner. Enterprises that
are now being established in the South
are put there to stay. They are not be-
ing projected to make a show of activity,
but to continue upon legitimate, sub
stantial basis. There is probably less
speculation in the South at present than
at any time in many years past, and this
is the most encouraging feature of the
present situation. The South is moving
forward now upon the lines of conserva-
tive legitimate business, and in the long
run this means more good honest money
| in the pockets of all concerned"
