RICH IN GIFTS.
The new st. Paul Universalist church in
Meriden will be rich in gifts of substan-
tial nature. Recently I. G. Lewis of Neri-
den gave sc, 900 for fine organ for the
church, and his wife added $500 more for
the object. Among the new gifts is one
which will be placed in the auditorium
whom the new church Is ready for oecu-
pancy, and ba the offering of Mrs. J. e..
Chaplin. The gift will be a memorial altar
for the late DR.. ]. q. Chaplin.
As Rev. DR.. Chaplin was for many years
pastor of the Universalist church, the
memorial altar will serve to perpetuate
pleasant memories of the past. As DR..
Chaplin at the time of his death was trans
| acting business relative to the new church,
II seems especially fitting that the altar
should stand in his memory.
The special window paid. for by the SUM-
day school will arrive In the near future.

There are in this vicinity quite num-
Der of Indians camped who do not be-
long, SO far as we know, to any reserva-
ton, and to their credit be it said, they
are willing to work and make living
without begging or stealing. These In
dians complain bitterly of the conduct
of some of the Duck Valley Indians, no.
iably Little Johnny and John Devne,
lhe latter one of the Indian police) who
they say commit petty thefts and dep
relations for which others are blamed.
1t is said that the noble (?) John De-
vine had SO badly beaten and mistreated
his wife, who was relative of one of
the complaining Indians, that she was
afraid for her life, and when her spouse
returned from trip hid short way
from the camp, which was near Clegg's
ranch, Pleasant valley. The worthy
John demanded his wife, raved, dis
played gun and tried to hire the other
Indians to bind and keep her when she
should show up. The i'dusky maiden
of the forestn saw and beard all this
from her ambush and concluded home
with the Great Spirit in the Happy
Hunting Ground was preferable to a
hell on earth, and dug and ate the dead
ly wild parsnip, thus ending her days.
This is true story which might form
the ground work for novel. The writ
er is personally acquainted with John
Devine and Little Johnny and knows
them to De nuisances and utterly worth
less, and it is our opinion that their
health would be much better if they
were made to stay on the reservation
where they belong.

The Dynamite of Business.

Thanks to the courtesy of Mr.. David
T. Day, Chiefof the Statistical Depart
ment of the Geological Survey, we give
the Geological Report Of the Mineral
Products of the United States for 1891,
compared with 1890, in advance of their
official publication. 1t will be seen that
there is an increase over 1890 Of about
$l2, 1000 600 in value. The total is about
S25 600, 600 too great. owing to the fact
that the value of silver is calculated at
SI.29 per ounce, while its aelnal value
was less than 80 cents per ounce. Cop
per is also figured at considerable more
than its actual value, so that on these
two items the estimate is incorrect. 1t
can probably be set down as fact that
with the present population of the
United States the normal value of the
mineral products is about $3.50, 900, 600
year. As population increases it will
naturally increase as it has in the past.
The production in 1880 was valued at
1869, ,3l9, 900, or an average for each in
habtant of little over 81. In 1890 it
averaged for each inhabitan5 little
over $40.
1t is interesting to study the articles
in which there has been an increase or
decrease of production per capita since
1880. Tabuatsd they are, on the met
alic minerals and coal, as follows

The Diamonds.

Have we a Kimberley IN Owybee
county? 1t begins to look every day
more and more as if the answer were to
be i q the affirmative. If it is true, out
siders are going to get the best of it.
This is usually the case with new and
important discoveries. But if diamond
field really has been found at Diamond
Basin the ground which is likely to
yield up the gittering gems is probably
extensive in area. Diamond Basin is
not unique spot on the plains lying
between the foothills and Snake river.
From Reynolds creek to a considera BILE
distance above Castle creek the ground
is all volcanic formation, and if valua-
BILE gems are found in one place, the
whole district, covering at least three
hundred square miles, will be pres
pected.
If the stories. now apparently reliably
told, prove to be true, we will see boom
and excitement in this county before
Mrs. Crocheron's earliest straw berries
are ripe which will wipe out all the rec
elections of the mining boom between
1865 and 1875. Kimberley in 1866 was
filed up with men from every nation in
the civilized world. Owyhee may see a
repetition of that wild excitement. 1t
is well enough for US 10 be prepared for
it. This paper will not assist in adver-
tsiug fabe. This diamond excitement
may yet prove a fake but to-day it
bears the ear marks and brand OF the
real genuine thing. Why should it not
be? No one familiar with the forma-
tion will argue, much less assert, that it
is not just the kind of country in
which to look for carbon crystals. Old
Charley Peck, who for years insisted
that diamond field did exist exactly
where claims are now being staked of,
may have been right. He was consid-
cred a crank on the subject, but it is
we'll to remember thst cranks are a nee
essary part of the machinery which
moves the world.

PRODUCTION PER CAPITA.

The two articles on which there has
been a loss in production are gold and
quicksilver. The one article in which
there has been the least gain is silver.
These statistics tell story worthy of
careful and unprejudiced consideration
by all who study the monetary question.
The great gains in the production per
capita show tremendous expansion of
business, and with it every one knows,
has come an increased use for money.
But has the production of monetary
metals kept pace with the production of
other things? We see that the produc-
ton of silver increased but one-tenth of
an ounce per capita, and that the pro-
duction of gold decreased two-tenths of
an ounce per capita. 1t is a matter of
com mon knowledge that the use of sill
yer in the arts has increased since 1880,
though we have no statistics to show
W hat that Increase per capita may have
been. 1t is probably more than the
gain per capita in the production OF sill
yer, so that the amount available for
monetary u5e has decreased instead of
increased. Here then is a country try
ing to meet the demands of au expand
ing business with only one monetary
metal, and the production of that rap
idy decreasing. Every one knows that
increasing business is done upon an in
creasing credit, and credit is the dyna-
mite of business, which every few years
blows it skywards. Natural laws in
business work ont as they do in physics,
and a continuation of the policy must as
surely lead to an explosion as the sun is
to rise and set each twenty-fonr hours.
In the increasing credit, too, the eoun-
try is storing an increase of dynamite,
and the explosion will be great one
when it com mee.-Mining Industry.

On the 10Th inst. at the state peni-
tentiar, turnkey Howard French, for
merly of this county, stabbed and al
most instantly Killed, convict Samuel
Hatton, who was sentenced from Altu-
ras county to fourtesn years for grand
larceny. Hstton was desperate char
acter and had caused much trouble at
the Pen. On the morning of the homi-
eide Mr.. French and the assistant cook
went to Hatton's cell with his break
fast, and Hatton abused French until he
away. AS the turnkey was leaving the
cell Hatton jumped on his back and
commenced beating him on the head
and trying to throw him over the rail-
ing to the stone floor below, a distance
of thirty feet. French called for the
cook to pull Hatton off which he did
and then ran, leaving the breakfast and
tray. Hatton then attempted to wrench
the locks from the cell doors with
which to attack French, failing in
which, he seized a knife from the break
fast tray and went for the turnkey who
drew hunting knife and plunged it
into the left side of the desperate man
with the result stated above. Hetton
was very large and powerful man and
altogether bad. An examination was
held and Mr.. French exoneratod from
all blame.

There are schools now rCnniDgi n sew
eral districts in this county where the
attendance is only from two to six
pupils, the teachers receiving as high
as seventy dollars per month. This is
all wrong, aud the law should be SO
fixed that when the average daily at
tendance falls below some reasonably
defined number the school should be
stopped, or its expenses paid by private
subscription. The larger schools in the
county are the losers by the drainage OF
the public money used to keep up these
almost useless small schools. Where
only two or three pupils are attending a
school, it would be cheaper to close it
and pay the board of these same pupils
in the neighborhood of larger one.
These very small districts ought never
to have been established. We could il
lustrate this by giving the particulars of
how the count of children was made to
establish some of them. Every effort
should be made to give every child the
benefit of common school education,
but it is not right to rob the many for
the benefit of the few, and for the pub
lie to pay an instructor the same amount
for teaching half dozen pupils that the
same person would expect for teaching
thirty, is not just and the defect in the
law should be remedied.

REFORM is NECESSARY.


According to the two representative
newspapers of Chicago, politics in that
city need publication. Of the Demo-
cratic county convention the Inter
Ocean, the high tax organ Of monopoly,
says:
"More than half of the delegates were
saloon-keepers, and the convention de.
generated into condition bordering
on a drunken orgie, but the Inter-
Ocean will let the Democratic news.
papers have their say"
And the Chicago Herald, the organ of
Democracy, observes as follows:
"The only remark the Herald cares
to make is that when the Republican
plug uglies, buns, drunkards, toughs
ear chewers, eye gougers, sand baggers,
bumboat keepers, shoulder hitters, gin
mill proprietors, caunibals, shell work
ers, monte. men, con men, gamblers
pimps, thieves and burglars get to.

WHITELAw REID made speech at
Springfield, ILL.,, Thursday. That II was
disappointing Efforts putting II mildly.
II was disappointing because Mr.. Reid is
an editor, and an editor has no excuse for
not being up to the times. This would be
asking good deal of Senator Hoar or
Tom Reed, but to the editor of the Tribune
IL ought to be very easy task TO find a
more living subject than Jefferson Davis.
MIR. Ried dropped him from the Tribune
leaders some years back, and IL is a sad
sight TO see candidate for Vice President
playing the role Of a political medium and
trying TO materialize the departed shades.
Boston Globe.
1t does seem like the rawest kind of
gall for Whitelaw Reid to attempt the
jeff Davis issue for the benefit of his
own candidacy for Vice President,
when just twenty years ago, and when
jeff Davis was alive, this same White
law Reid, enclosed in the same skin,
supported for President of the United
States the man who bailed JEFF Davis
out of prison, and did his worst to
defeat Gen. Grant for President, the
man who put the finishing touches on
JEFF Davis Confederacy. If there is
any man now living, who ought to fight
shy of the JEFF Davis issue that man is
Whitelaw Reid, Republican candidate
for Vice President.
