Closing Logging Operations.

This season, 1898, will close the logging
operations of three large concerns-the
John Edwards Mfg. Co., Sherry
Cameron Co., and Clark & Scott, of
Rudolph. We understand this winters
cut will complete their numbering.
Their1imberis all cut We are informed
that the John Edwards Mfg. Co. will
convert their plant into paper mill
and pulp mill or some other ermanufactur-
ing industry. Just what will be done
IN the other two cases we have not
learned. The closing of these three
beehives of industry will throw a large
number of men out Of employment
temporarily. We sincerely hope the
capitalists will remain with us in some
line of manufacturing.

The Very First American Coins.

The very earliest coinage that can prop
erly be said to be ''strictly American was
ordered by the original Virginia company
in the year 1912 only five years after the
founding of jamestown. These coins were
minted at Somers islands, now known as
the Bermudas. For a period Of more than
a quarter Of century after this, however,
tobacco and beaver skins were reckoned as
lawful currency. In 1G45 the assembly Of
Virginia met and declared that it chad ma
turely weighed and considered how advan-
tageous a quoine (coin) would be to this
colony, and how much better it would be
than sole dependency upon tobacco and
pelts." After this they provided for the
coinage Of copper coins Of the denomina
tions of pence, pence, pence and 8
pence; but this resolution was never car
ried into effect. The first coinage in Amer
ica proper was the series of coins STRUCK"
at Boston under the order of the general
court of Massachusetts, passed May q, 1862,
the coins being 8, and 10 pence denomina-

the TARIFF pa0sBagsE

The Democratic mans gers are prepar-
ing for the tariff fight 80 the House Ar
soon as Congress r,ccny- mes the 30 OF
January. Their design Is to hasten the
passage OF the bill as much as possible
and TO force II through the House In Its
present form. They believe they are go-
ing 10 have but little difficulty either In
expediting the passage OF the bill or in
preventing amendments. II they can
help thomsolves, II is understood the
Democratic leaders viii not devote more
than two weeks TO the consideration Of
the tarih bill In the House. The Repub.
licans expect ia follow uniform policy
In Doth houses OF Congress with relation
t. the tariu. Those leaders who decide
policies pr pose not 10 give any assist
ance To Democrats VINO, on accoun, OF
their local interests, will attempt 10 put
protective duties on paIticula- articles.
Toereiore, the Republicans Will not vote
with those Democrats who want parti.
cular protection, unless those Democrats
are in turn ready TO make a general rule
of the proposition they present aud vote
with the Republicans TO restore protec-
ton practically throughout the bill.
1t is believed that it viii take at least
six weeks, perhaps much longer, to get
the tariff bill through the Senate. The
indications are that It Is the present in
tention OF the finance committee TO en-
tirely reconstruct the bill when II reaches
it. To overcomethe possibility ofa division
in the party after the bill is reported, it
will be the plan OF the committee to set.
tie all differences in the committee before
the bill is reported, and then to put It
through the Senate as party measure by
a solid Democratic vote. 1t wants, II
to avoid any attempt or the part
Of the Democrats to amend the bill in the
Senate.
