straight and the distance between the
two cities will be 23O miles, which it
is proposed to cover in two hours
and thirty minutes.

FOSTERS AERIAL RIVER.

All over the present portion of the
west which constitutes the arid re-
gion exist unmistakable evidences
of former cultivation. Not a few
writers have been puzzled in noting
the changes which have come to this
country in ages past. Foster, the
weather prophet, has been examin-
ing the subject, and in one of his re-
cent letters he advances some very
interesting points in reference there
to. He cites the we'll established
historical fact that the present Asia
ito desert of Cobb was once the
favorite garden spot Of the Aryan
tribes, and was "cultivated to death ;"
that the forests were wiped from the
face of the. earth and thus brought
on an atmospheric condition that
can result in nothing but permanent
and continued drought. So it has
been with the plains of New Mexico
and other parts of the west, he says.
He argues that an aerial river of
water is almost constantly stream
ing northwestward over the state of
Texas. The river rises from the
Gulf of Mexico through the influence
of the perpetual high promoter that
cover the Atlantic north of 20 de-
grees north latitude. In other words,
the principal part of the moisture
that waters all of the great central
valleys, including the great northern
lakes, comes from the gulf of Mexico
and moves northwestward in trans
parent streams of moisture laden at
mosphere. This great aerial river
flows onward over Oklahoma, western
Kansas and Nebraska, eastern New
Colorado and Wyoming in
the direction of the Dakotas and |
Montana. Wherever the earth be-
comes excessively heated by the suns
rays there the rainfall will be light;
the hot air constantly arising from
the arid district drives the moisture
Iadened air current high into space
and it is carried back to the gulf
without having accomplished its
duty.
To aid nature in its work Mr..
Foster says it is necessary to plant
.rees in vast numbers throughout the
lrid country. The forests must be
'eplaced, and where irrigation can
le, had a cooler atmosphere will
ierye to draw the rain from the aerl-
i river, thus in time bringing about
gradual change which will result
II less water being required from
car to year for irrigation purposes.
Foster laughs at the idea of the
Kansas university philosophers,
Who declare the rain belt to have
moved westward. He attributes the
hange in central Kansas, Texas
nd Nebraska to the protection of the
arth and cooling of the atmosphere
aused by the planting of trees in
nose sections, and says the same
hanged conditions will eventually

4 GOOD IDEA.

The National Grange has adopted a
resolution asking congress to favor the
plan recently proposed for the creation
Of a division Of public roads i he de-
partment Of agriculture. The ~aSsOcia-
ton recently organized to promote this
undertaking has succeeded in creating a
wide public interest in it and action by
congress concerning it is not unlikely.
Another recommendation Of real impOr-
lance made by the grange is that the agri-
cultural department shall have a bureau
relating to fruits and their markets. The
experience of recent years has led fruit
growers to consider numerous plans for
extending their markets and preventing
local glutS by which the business has
been made uncertain and improbable
The plan now under consideration might
be Of great benefit TO the producers of
fruits by enabling them to keep informed
as to the extent and condition of the
crops of various fruits. They now have
to depend upon meager information re-
ceived from commission men during the
shipping season, and even this is furn-
ished to comparatively few. Owing 10
the perishable character Of most of the
fruits produced in the United States it is
important that growers and shippers
should have al the information obtain
able upon matters affecting their market.
The propriety of establishing a bureau Of
public roads cannot be called in question

Tobacco.
Wilmington Messenger.

The prices of tobacco have been ruling
1S70-80. We used to take pleasure in
noting the great prices of the Granville
weed and of other neighbOring counties,
but we rarely see a sale reported that is
worthy Of note now. In 1949, we knew
a Granville farmer to average Sc per
hundred pounds for his entire crO?, and
it was talked about in town and country.
But by 1870, we knew Granville men to
average more than $75 per hundred
pounds for the whole crop, and Dennis
Tilley to average more than 800 per
hundred for eighteen t~ierces. We have
known ten Granville farmers in one year
to average 500 to the acre, or 81, 900 to
each hand they hired. But it is not so
now in any Of the counties, or the news
papers fail to publish the facts.
There is too much tobacco grown now
for the demand. Product is in excess Of
demand That means low prices. Cot
ton and tobacco have been suffering
from over-producti6n There is no
doubt Of this. The Durham Tobacco
Plant notes this fact, and says:
"While leading manufacturers, who
have advertised the world over, have
ready sale and even increasing orders
for their established brands, it is evident
to the careful observer that there is too
much of the raw material raised for the
present amount OF competition to make
prices largely remunerative.
"In the New England states, where a
great many of our southern farmers
never dreamed tobacco was raised at ali,
its increase of growth has been tremen-
dOus in the past few years. \ < Added
TO this, take The new acreage of South
Carolina, Georgia, Eastern and Western
North Carolina, and to this, the i'm
mems quantity the British Government
is now making in India, and some idea
may be formed of how rapidly its growth
has spread"
In fine grades the business is much
OverdOne. Farmers will be wise to
shorten crop of tobacco and diversity
more. 1t is high time that they made all
their bread, feed for horses and stock
generally and kept their smoke houses at
home instead of in Cincinnati, Chicago,
Louisville and Baltimore.

WHO l. THE PARTY:

The following from the New York
Morning Advertiser is a very suggestive
idea:
The adulatory World, is in its eulogy
Of WILLIAM G. Whitney, which must
have given that gentleman Il nausea
when he read il, says that
He is going to devote his time in the i'm
mediate future to making, himself an cnor-
mOuSIy rich man. He il already WOrth sew
eral millions. and before long he will be worth
fifty or a hundred millions more. He will he
the first very rich man ever elected prcsl-
dent Of the United States.
This is a refreshing illustration Of the
ignorant frankEess of the democratic
party-since the election Before the
election its leaders On the stump and in
its newspapers were filled with disin-
genuOus denunciatiOns of plautOCrats
and milliOnaires. They preached the
gospel Of hatred against rich men. Now
they allege a gigantic wealth as a
strong argument why he should be their
candidate for president. The truth is,
the party has always been a wOrshiper
Of money bags. The dupes who voted
for CLEVELAND under the impression
that they were allied with the poor mans
party will have their eyes opened in due
time.
The Advertiser very foolishly admits
in the above that the New York World
is the democratic party. But in making
its admission it is also guilty of a stupid
falschood. The New York World is not
the democratic party, and people at the
South who have been sincere DO not
propose to allow the mercenary Jew to
insist that it is the democratic party.
The New York World is a dirty and
contemplate sheet that attempted to de
feat CLEVELAND in "a, and the Adver
tiser knows it.
So far as MR.. WHITNEY is concerned,
he had nothing to do with it.
The Advertiser could be in better
business than claiming that the ostra
ciZed Jew, PULITZER, had ANYTHING to do
with saving our national politics. And
above all other things it should think be-
fore it spoiled paper, and then it would
know that what the miserable World
said was not an expression Of the demo-
cratic party.

NOTHING OF THE SORT.

The following is taken from the Rich
mond Times:
AS vet nothing has been done with the
Gideonites, but strong efforts are being
made to nave the law enforced against
| them. particularly the known leaders,
who have been guilty of open treason,
and of which there is direct and positive
testimony. :. OHIO WILSON, chairman
of the peoples party executive commit
tee, will probably be indicted in the state
and United States courts as the chief OF
this band.
There is nothing Of the kind. The
Times correspondent simply talks rot
| and does not know what he is talking
about. 1t is a matter Of common motto
| riety that no effect has ever been made
and it appears that 40 effort ever will
be made, to capture the Gideonite7.
There is no use to pretend something
and make a great fuss when it is all
mOonshinc-and this is.
There is no particular knO ledge Of
know leaders; there has never been any
attempt and no efforts to arrest the lea
der.-in fact, The Times as usual, which
is generally unreliable, gets things all
mixed up.
The above is simply a fake, aud il
spoils space, paper and type TO print it.
The Times should reform.

SHARKS IN a LADIES' BATH.
Two Monsters Unceremoniously End

Two Monsters Unceremoniously End

From the PittGbtGrq Dispatch.
The last Australian mail brings a thrill
ing shark story from Melbourne. A Mrs.
French and Mrs. Macmeikan were bath
ing with several ladies and children in the
Melbourne Sea baths, when Mrs French's
little boy, who was not bathing, noticed a
largo shark rapidly approaching the party,
and Immediately told Mrs. Durrant. The
boy then called out to Mrs Mscmeikan that
there was shark III the water. She glanced
around aud with horror saw a shark turn
ing over within foot of her. She kicked
and splashed and nearly tainted away. The
shark made for the children, going between
the ropes and the shore.
Mrs Macmeikan speedily recovered her
presence of mind, and darted to the rescue
of the children. Quickly securing Roy,
this brave lady placed the child In about
one foot of water. Then she turned to &C.
cure Mrs. French's child. She was just in
time to effect the rescue. AS she grasped
the little one, and was making for the shore,
the shark with a big companion, made
dash. The undaunted woman succeeded IN
frightening the monsters away, and safely
bore the children from all danger. The
sharks had effected an entrance into the
baths through some broken pickets. Some
men were subsequently called In and sue
ceeded in killing the smaller shark. The
big one managed to get away into the open
sea. The men stuck a boathook into him

hole and nearly smashed the hook, the jerk
