our County, slngnlar or PLURAL

ShN ~ n
Remarks the Register: "lhc New
York Sun and David Dudley Field
agree that the United States a."
On the contrary Mr.. Field insists that
the United States are. In a letter OF
June 10, 1893, to Prof.. Hill, OF Harvard,
he approves that writer's condemns
ton Of the use OF the singular verb
with tho noun United States, for which
use no insists that there is no author
ity.
Mr.. Field argues the point at length,
saying that 'the first, last and decisive
reason for saying the United States
are is that the constitution designatea
the United States as plural" 1t is so
in the body of the instrument, it is so
in the amendments. Again ne says;
'gIhe usage OF which you complain ia
contrary to the grammar of our Ian,
guage, which requires a plural verb for
a plural noun"
1t is true. as Mr.. Field says, that the
form is plural but the sense is singular
aud so is the fact; for which reason
many Americans prefer to treat the
noun MS OF tho singular number and put
the verb in agreement with it. Ii you
please, it is the national idea as OPP
posed to the old state sovereignty idea
that was fought to a finish in the civil
war,
Whether tho name OF this country is
to be used in the singular as represent
ing one, or in the plural as indicating
more than one, does not involve a
mighty principle. 1t is u matter OF
taste. The INTELLIaENcER likes to
think that the United States is, and
over shall be, one and indivisible. Our
country, singular or plural!

MIR. Cleveland and the Pensioners.
II tho pension roll DO u roll OF dis
honor, as President Cleveland assumes
it to be; if for years men have been
borne on it who have no just claim to
that distinction and the public bounty,
this administration has an open account
to settle with the first administration
of Grover Cleveland, and this is a good
timo for n day OF reckoning.
In four ycars President Cleveland,
having control OF tho executive branch
OF tho government, could have rooted
out tho abuses OF which he and his
party complain. He could have shown
whether any considerable number OF
fraudulent pensions had been granted,
who were getting them and how much
they amounted to. He could have put
tho fraudulent pensioners in the peni.
Tertiary.
There was something wrong with
him and his administration then, or
there is something wrong now.

teresting one, representing the mas
sacre Of white settlers at Fort Dear
born nearly century ago. The story
runs that in 1872 party of men and
women, including Lieut.. Helm, of the
Dearborn garrison, and his wife set
out from Chicago on a march to De-
troit. When but mile or two on
their way they were attacked by hos
tile Indians. Black Partridge, of the
Pottawatomies, rushing from the
shade Of cottonwood tree, wher
now the house of George M. Pullman
stands, saved Mrs. Helm from the
descending tomahawk of hostile In
dian He then claimed Mrs. Helm
as booty, but afterward by strata
gem allowed her to escape This
story is well told by the sculptor,
Carl Rohl Smith, who put in couple
of other figures to complete the work.
The sculptor happily selected the
moment when the fatal blow Of
the tomahawk is intercepted. The
Indian figures were studied from
Sioux chiefs and the monument has
been erected on the site OF the cot

Industrial Growth in the West

A census bureau bulletin recently
issued on the iron industries in the
fifteen Western and Northwestern
States deserves more than passing at,
tention for several reasons. 1t shows
marvellous development in these in
dustrieS within a very recent date.
The vast amount of capital invested
in them and the rapid rate at which
it is increasing are among the first
things likely to impress themselves
upon the mind of the examiner
of the figures furnished. The in
crease in this capital in the decade
between 1870 and 1880 was more than
400 per cent. In the following dec
,ade the rate Of increase was still
more rapid. In 1890 there was more
than double the amount invested
than in 1880 and over four times as
much as in 1870. At the first period
mentioned the aggle gate capital of
all the companies engaged in this
line Of industry was $25, 900, AIS. Ten
years later it had increased to $52.-
3lS, 393, and when the census bureau
statistics were completed it had
grown to sos, 070, 751
Another thing emphasized by the
figures presented is the constant ten
dency to Capitalization of power
Wine the money employed increased
so largely in the last decade. the
number Of concerns engaged actually
decreased ia the same period. In
1880 there were 231 establishments
of the kind referred to. In 1890 the
number had decreased to 225. In
1870 the number was 152 This con-
centration of capital seems to have
had the effect Of reducing the num-
Der Of men employed when compared
with the amount Of capital invested.
The number of the employees in the
l52 establishments running in 1870,
exclusive of the clerical forces and
the general officers of the companies,
was rs, 858. In 1890 it had grown to
81, 81 and in 1890 it amounted tC
Abb.
At the same time there appears &c
have been a considerable increase in
the rate of wages paid. In 1870 thu
aggregate sum paid out in this way
was 50, 220, 49,. In 1850 it had grown
to Sl4, 853,781, while in 1850 it had
still further Increased to S23, 020, OPS.
The cost Of material. used in 1870 wa:
$25, 5l9, 500 IL 1880 it had grown
to $54, $50, 064 and in 1890 it had
swollen to SOL, 797, 954. The value
Of the product placed upon the mar
ket in 1870 was $40, 0e6, 901. In 1880
the output had grown in value to 49,
8 55l,52l. The quantity Of manufac-
tured articles turned out in 1870
amounted to 76G, $50 tons In 1880
it had risen to I,944,l7 tons In
1890 it reached ) 073, 500 tons.

The y Northwestern Miller, published
al Minneapolis, in its issue of the 9Th
INST, has a long article on Milling at
Superior and Duluth" from which we
take the following extract regarding
our two new elevators:
'i}arnett & Record began deiving
piles early last week for the foundation
OF the Phelps Harrington elevator at
Superior, and Monday morning OF tins
week they began sinking the pjling for
The Cargill elevator.
The Harrington elevator is situat-
Ell on the same pier with, and Just to
the left Of, the Todd or Anchor mill.
Further to the left, just across one
slip, the piles for the Cargiu elevator
are being sunk. Within the week Nj.
Barnett says lie viii have ten piledriy-
ers at work, The Z. p. Allis Co. of
Milwaukee, furnished the plans for
these houses. The Cargill house viii
have capacity Of 2,i50 0G0 bushels.
500, 900 bushels in the shipping eleyat-
VI anu i'DJ','tJ buShtIS III the ware
house proper. The Harrington plant
VIII have room for 2,j00 coo bushels.
100000 bushels in the the warehouse
and 80, bushels in the shipping house.
The contract call for the completion
OF the Harrington plant April l. NJ.
harrington says there VIII be 1905
men at work on both plants by Fcbru-
airy !. It viii require 500 carloads OF
lumber for each elevator, and about
5000 kegs Of nails. The Cargnl ele-
vator Will be farthest from the Super
ior, Anchor and LjStman mills, yet it
VIII not be more tAan a good stones
throw distant from either When
work IS on III earnest at these elevator
plants the sight afforded together
with that which may BE witnessed in
the same p.cture-the progress on the
three new mills-will be one Of indus
trial enterprise the equal of which
probably has never before been seen.

Owing to the outrage0usIv high

Owing to the outrage0usly high
price of coarse ccaI, many Of our PEG
pie thought they would try and get
through the winter with the finer
grades. But the coal kings soon saw
how things were working and 50 they
advanced the price of pea coal one
dollar per ton, and our people are now
paying &6.l0 for this grade of coal
which costs in Duluth but 500 per
ton If oar city authorities would
spend some Of their energies in trying
10 protect the citizens against such
imp0siti0ns and robbcrieS as this, in
stead of devising ways ana means to
allow gamblers to escape punishment,
they might DO some good in the world.
Six dollars and ten cents per ton for
coal screenings! Something never be
fore heard Of. Is it any wonder that
the poor become vicious and lawlcss,
and curse all corporations?

most 1tnOignlfeU 1UGU.
One stride of his long legs brought
Remond to the door Of the cave; one dex-
ferrous turn of the wrist, and the key was
out of the door and transferred to his
pocket, the whole transaction occupying
much less time than it takes to describe
it. Then turning quickly back, crying:
"What is it? What's the matter?" he
rejoined his companions.
When he learned what had happened,
his Indignation was extreme. Butor,
cochon, imbecile, cuistre, were the best
names he had for the unhappy cause Of
the accident, on whom he lavished SO
mu.jf1 abuse that Pierre could with diff
Guilty pacify him by declaring that it was
quite as much his own fault as Ber-
trand's.
Peace being restored, they continued
on their errand, Pierre carrying the bas-
ket himself this time. He placed it on
little table beside the door Of the cave,
which he proceeded to open, Remond po-
litely holding the lantern in order to IA
cilitate proceedings, but great was his
amazement when he saw the lock was
empty.
"Diable!" he cried. What has become
of the key? It was in the door an hour
ago, and not sign Of it now"
Dear mer said Remond. chow verv
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1893-11-15

that his dear M. Pierre had forgotten to
take them. Pierre, however, explained
that the key Of the cave was in the door,
and that the bunch of keys to which
Remond referred contained the dupi-
Gates of those in use in case of any be-
ing lost. But" he continued, Il have
forgotten something, and that is the
lantern. The cave will be so dark at
this hour that will not be able to find
the wine without light, and perhaps
one Of these messieurs will be so good as
to hold it for me while get what |
want. will go and fetch it," he added,
hurrying indoors.
The word "lost" was q sufficient hint
to the sharp witted Remond, and before
Pierre returned with the lantern his fer
tile brain had devised scheme, and in
q few rapid words he explained to his
confederate that he must contrive to de-
lay Pierre for moment so that he, Re-
mond, should get to the cave little in
advance Of the other two. He had only
just time to say this when Pierre reap
peared carrying q lighted lantern. Re
mond took it from him gayly, declaring
that he would go first and light the way.
and with q significant glance at Ber-
trand he walked on with jaunty step,
humming to himself a lively air, while
Bertrand, who insisted on taking the
basket, followed with Pierre.
Just as Remond turned the corner Of
the house, close to the door Of the cave,
which, as we have already said, was in
a line with the house door, the other two
being few yards behind him and out Of
sight, he heard an exclamation, q scuf-
fling noise and profuse apologies from
Bertrand, who, in obedience to the hint
given him to delay Pierre, had intention
ally stumbled, letting the basket fall
and sending it rolling back little by
the aid Of a sly kick. Then falling against
Pierre in his pretended anxiety to find it
again he had oyerbalanced that individ-
ual. who found himself sitting on the

Our Old Folks.

Oh, the quiet and holy influences OF
/ homel When our parents were young
and we were children, how they worked
for usl What love and care they gave u.s.
And now, il by adverse circumstances we
are compelled to remain on some quiet
home farm or ia some lonely country viii
lage where, perhaps, our aged relatives
require our care, we must not murmur;
but how gladly sometimes would We turn
our backs upon the stiffness that at times
fairly Expresses Us, and hasten, with eager
footsteps, to mingle with those in the
higher and broader circles OF life. But II
must not be; for the aged require our
care. They are as much dependent upon
us as we were once upon them. They did
not falter in their love for us and now we,
in turn, must check our own impatient
footsteps to keep pace with their more fee
bic ones. Let us not wait and carry all
the flowers to lay upon the casKet, but let
us offer some during life, while the dim
old eyes can light with pleasure at their
beauty and fragrance, as well as at the
thought OF being remem Dered; for old
seems to point out to us a straight and
narrow path, rough and rocky and often
times uphill; but as we walk therein let
us try to enjoy the stray sunbeams as they
fall across our way; let us Gull the flowers
by the wayside-and they are many il we
will only look for them. We may have to
make sacrifices; our plans in life may have
to be changed; many of our hopes must
be given up; we endure the enforced idle
ness for the sake of making life more
pleasant for them, making easier the down
hill road OF life. And while we do this,
let us think that, sometime in the future,
when they shall awake to life in that 9TH
er world, they will then and there know
the full extent OF the love we bore them
here in life
