An Agent Sent Abroad to Teach Euro.
peans How TO Prepare and Eat 1t.
More than year ago the Secretary
Of Agriculture, seeking to expand
the market for American grain in
general and Indian corn in particular,
because it is less known than other
grains sent a first class man to Europe,
who is called "corn agent"
This mans work is of a practical
sort.
The Europeans, generally speaking,
are ignorant Of corn as an article Of
food, and have some prejudice against
eating it.
The "corn agent" went into four
hundred bakeries in England and
showed the bakers how to make an
excellent bread by mixing fine corn
meal with rye -four. In this way corn
was introduced in Great Britain, aud
it is steadily growing in favor there.
The corn agent has taught four
hundred bakers in Berlin to use corn
neal and they are now selling loaf
weighing five pounds made of corn
meal and rye for the same price that
was formerly demanded for a three
pound loaf OF rye bread.
The corn agent will continue this
work in all the countries of Europe.
At Or sent. he is in the famine
stricken districts of Russia teaching
the poor people now to make corr
bread, mush, and other articles OF d'e'
in which corn meal is the CHEF ingte-
dent.

THE FRENCH BOYS, GROIIP
1t Will be Paid For Within Two
Weeks.

The French Boys group of claims,
on the Bullion divide, which was
bonded few weeks ago, FOR $4,000,
is likely to be bought and paid for
within two weeks. Tue bond runs
until the first day of July, 1892; but
the recent developments in one of the
claims have doubtless led the bondees
to conclude that they had better take
the claims at once, and thus secure
the royalty on the ores extracted by
the leasers now at work.
The French Boys group consists OF
seven or eight claims, of which Louis
Pelissier owns by far the largest IN
terest, Augus,e Thouvenot, who joined
with Louis Pelissier in the bond, onlv
owning in two of the least valuable
claims. A. f. Montandon, who owns
one.third Of the claim in which ore
was uncovered recently, has not
bonded his interest.
The claims will doubtless be ex-
plotted by an Incorporated company.
Unless all indications fail they will
pay enormously, as they are the most
favorably situated and promising in
this region, and have always been SC
considered be mining men.

THE HALEY PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Ihey Are Probably Closed Ere This Is
Read.
The Board of Trustees OF HALEY
School District held a meeting, last
night, which lasted over two hours.
The teachers attended the meeting,
but they could not give the Trustees
much information as to the financial
condition of the district; nor were
they expected to.
1t appeared that of the rs cords OF
wood purchased last fall there was
scarcely enough left to keep the
proper temperature in the schoolhouse
another month.
After considering the condition OF
affairs, tho Trustees concluded to
close the schools at once, as if they
were kept open the district would not
have cent on hand with which to
open them next fall. The liabilities
already incurred, added to the cost OF
keeping the schools going until June,
would more than offset the income
from the general and special taxes
for 1892.
Although this was the conclusion
arrived at, the Trustees did not order
the schools closed, as they wished,
before doing SO, to secure an express
sion of public opinion in the matter.
They therefore call meeting for
tomorrow evening-notice of which
can be fonnd under head New To-
Day."

A GENEROUS PLAN.

Few who know anything about the silver
question have thought the international
conference now in session would amount
~ anything, and they were therefore
hardly prepared for such generous and
comprehensive plan as that proposed by
Albert De Rothsohild in behalf of the
British delegates to the conference. This
plan provides that the United States shall
agree to continue the purchase of silver on
the present scale, and that the European
powers shall combine to buy an amount
equal to e5,000,OoO yearly for five years at
the current market price up to 43d. per
ounce. If silver should rise above that
price, the purchases are to be Immediately
suspended.
English delegates to conferences where
England interests are concerned are always
modest and unselfsh, but Mr.. De Rothschild
has especially distinguished himself and his
country in this plan. According to
it, the e5, 100000 year would buy 25, s13,-
963 ounces of fine silver. The purchases
of silver by the United States, under the
law of 1890, run at the rate of 81, 900, 900
ounces per annum. In the FIVE years 270,-
900, 900 ounces would bs the American
share and 13O, 900, 900 ounces would fall to
the European governments. In other words,
of every $100 to be locked up in silver the
United States would have to furnish S67.65,
while the European governments would be
let off with $32 35. And if silver should
rise above 43d. per ounce in London the
European purchases would automatically
stop, while the American purchases would
be continued under the provisions of the
law of 1890.
This plan is nothing less than ridiculous.
1t would probably not raise the price of
silver to any extent, and it would not re-
lieve the situation in the United States.
The only hopeful and sensible way OF
treating the silver question is for the lead.
ing commercial nations to unite in coinage
of 1t at a common ratio with gold. But
nobody expects that the conference will
come to any such conclusion as this, ol
even that the matter will be fairly and
honestly discussed.

UNREsTRICTED CHINAmEN.

UNRESTRICTED CHINAMEN.
1t is evident that If the Chinese are to
be restricted" in this country some new
way to do it will have to be found. The
laet law is fiat failure. 1t was passed
last May and required that within one year
from Its passage all Chinese lsborers with
in the q nited States should take out regis
tration papers before the collector of inter-
nal revenue of their respective districts
and furnish photographs of themselves for
purposes of Identification. July the IL
ternal revenue Office issued its form of sp-
plication for registry to all the officers
having Chinese lsborers residing In
their districts and distributed warn
ings in Chinese through all the
Chinese quarters, enjoining every China
man who wanted to stay in the United
States to come up and register and to bring
his photograph with him and to be ready
to swear that it was correct likeness. Up
to date just five Cinnamon in the whole
United States have complied with the law,
and they are residents of far-off Oregon.
Two others have offered to do 80 provided
the certificates to be issued them covered
the right to go to China and return, but
as this was something distinctly forbidden
by the law their conditional offers were re-
jected. The futility of the law is made
palmer when it is borne IN mind that there
are, according to the census, 107,-
500 Cinnamon in this country.
The penalty of failure to COM
ply with the law is deportation back
to China. Putting the average cost of
shipping eaoh Chinaman from his present
place of residence in the United States to
some port in the fowery kingdom at $100,
a very moderate estimate, the enforcement
of the law would involve an expenditure of
$10,750,0 900. The duty of carrying out
this little programme is imposed by the
statute upon the secretary of the treasury
and the attorney general and 500, 900 is
appropriated for the purpose. The addi-
tionsl $10,7O0,000 required for trans
portation purposes must be paid by the
next congress If the law is to be enforced.
ALI of which makes it plain that in
order to "rsstrict" Chinaman you must
first catch him.
