DsnIALs VERSUS news.

The editor Of the Times il at his old
tricks again. Whenever the HERALD,
as frequently happens. develops some
matter of important news exclusively,
the provincial contemporary. on tenn
porarily recovering from the blow, i'm
mediately proceeds to an indulgence in
vehement denials Of the authenticity OF
the news exploited in the columns Of its
more enterprising and energetic con-
temporary, the HERALD. In this man
ner it seeks to lull its readers into
state OF paresisical somnolence and
square itself for lack Of energy by gen.
eral denials.
When the HERALD exclusively pub
lished the news of the discovery Of the
Salton sea, when the whole country out
side of the Times Office was discussing
this phenomenon of the desert, the Times
glibly persisted in denying it's existence
until the master Of the establishment
returned and gave the "foorce' shak-
ing up for blindly ignoring palpable
news item of national Importance.
Again, when the HERALD exclusively
let the light in on the comprehensive
plans OF the Southern Pacific at Santa
Monica, including the construction OF
an immense pier at the mouth of the
caf1on, they again pursued the policy of
denial, and ridiculed the whole matter
as a wild vagary of reportorial imagin-
alton.
Now comes the third denial. The
Times says the HERALD glacier is fake,
fancying that it's readers are stupid
enough to believe such twaddle as an
apology for first class scoop"
Permit US to say, the HERALD
glacier is tangible object,
sufficiently go to justify the Santa Fe
road, and Mr.. Gus Knight, proprietor of
the Bear Valley hotel, and guide of the
HERALD glacier expedition, to proceed
to the expenditure Of hundreds of dol
lars in constructing trail from the foot
hills OF the Santa Ana valley to the
glacier.
They realize that the HERALD glacier
discovery is one Of commercial as we'll
as scientific Importance, and they pro-
pose to give hundreds of tourists an op.
portunity this summer of visiting a
frozen river on Grayback here in semi
tropical California, the Times denial"
to the contrary Notwithstanding.

A west side dealer in rainbow hued
novelties for the adornment of the mas.
culine neck has recently developed o
new thing in that line which may be-
come very popular. This new scarf is
made from the dried skin Of the rattle
snake and makes very handsome tie,
although the effect is rather startling,
as the rattles and buttons are utilized
for scarfpin.

The residents of Western Pennsyl-
vania. in the region Of Pittsburg, have
suffered much from cloudbursts which
have been direful in their effects. The
city of Pittsburg, situated between two
ranges of high hills at the junction of
the Monongahela and Allegheny rivers,
seems by reason of the physical config-
uration of it's environments to be pecul-
iarly liable to such disasters. The
cloudburst recently chronicled was dis
astrous as TO loss Of life and the destruc-
ton of property. 1t recalls to mind the
terrible cloudburst at Pittsburg in 1874,
which caused the loss of 200 lives and
the wiping out of hundreds of thousands
of dollars of property. The cloud
burst came in the night, and the
main body of water, represent
ing millions of tons. deluged the
Butchers Run district, valley in the
upper portion of Allegheny city, a suburb
OF Pittsburg. Blocks of houses were torn
from their foundations, overturned and
floated for miles, while scores of people
were reused from sleep, only to be
drowned in the mad and mighty torrent.
The recurrence of cloudbursts in par
ticular section of the country could
properly be made subject of research
among meteorologists with view to
changing provocative conditions so as to
lead to their possible prevention OF pro-
vision of safeguards which would reduce
their destructive powers to a minimum.

Nine men had to hold a patient with

Then came the unfortunate divorce

The subject of agricultural cooperation
has received great deal OF attention in this
country, but experiments in this direction
have boen rare. The results of the CO.
operation system which has been carried on
in Brittany France, during the past ten
years will, therefore, be of no little interest
to the farmers OF Vermont. According to
the New York Post Comte de Lauboisicre
of the province named is tho proprietor of
eighty farms, covering about 1000 acres.
AT the time of the severe agricultural de-
preston in 1880, many of his tenants were
far behind in their rents, and were aban-
doning their leases in despair Ihereupou
the count proposed an arrangement By
which they were to continue to work the
farms under his direction, ho to assume all
financial responsibility, to guarantee them
their living, and TO give them tue half o. ~.
profits derived from their labor. Then he
secured competent manager who proceed
ed to make specially of dairy farming,
steadily improving the breed of cows, and
perfecting the processes of manufacture OF
butter and cheese, with the result of soon
securing a reputation for superior products
and the highest prices in the market. Both
owner and farmer have highly prospered
under the new plan.
The accounts IN connection with tho CO.
operation experiment have just BEEN pub
lishel in the case OF each farm and it ap-
pears that the returns have been greatly iu
creased. Thus one farm which used to rent
for Si54.-a sum which the tenant was una
bic to realize from the yeur's farming opera
tions-yieided $ll14 in lSSG-'S7 and Sl7l0
in lSS9-'9O In the last instance the farm
er received b sides his living, $613, and the
owner, Sl02S, while the balance went to
hired laborers as their share of the profits
Similar results w.re attained upon all the
sixteen farms which are now fully worked
on the cooperative plan. The holders OF
other farms are coming into the arrange
ment as fast as their leases expire, as all are
convinced that the new method Is the best
for all concerned.
The experiment seems, therefore, to have
been a success and it is worthy Of record as
it has made considerable community pros
Porous, which was, before, IN distress.
Whether the same kind OF experiment would
succeed in Vermont is uncertain owing to
the prevalence of different conditions here.
but it would be OF immense interest AMI
value to the farmers could somo sucb trial
lie carried out.

The new year OF eus with feeling of con-
fidence in nearly every branch of business
and industry and many are looking for
repetition Of the great business boom which
was uShered III during the year Of 1879, and
which continued through 1880. Whether
this hope VIII be realized or not remains to
be seen, bat IT is certain that every indica-
ton points to a season of great prosperity
The situation is admirably summarized by
the New York correspondent OF the Phlla-
delphia Ledger: He says that while general
trade is now duh, this is a condition natural
to this period of the year, md is also the
result in part of the depressing effects which
are now quickly passing OF the financial up
heava o. 1890. The South, owing to an
overprcductiou of cotton, is experiencing a
more serious stagnation, but the country,
as a who.e, is in q state of rejoicing over the
splendid grain crops, for which there is
great domestic and foreign demand. This
increases the traffic and earnings of the
railroads, and by expanding the volume OF
exports turns the balance of foreign trade in
our favor. He continues a. follows THE
series of reciprocity treaties and diplomatic
concessions obtained by our government this
year must not be forgotten in any descrip-
tiou OF the financial outlook. With the de-
posts OF the New York banks greater than
ut any other period Of thoir history. and,
with biz surplus reserve and an immense
distribution Of dividends and interest due
this month from national and state govern
ments ana railroads and other corporations,
ihe money market is in a state OF extraordi-
nary case, and it is tho lenders, not the Dor
rowers, who are SUFFERING" This condition
OF affairs would seem to answer the
claims OF those who advocate free coinage OH
tho ground that there is too little money in
circulation
