Chemist Gaines and His Assistant.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
The report of the proceedings or the
Board Of Agriculture published In your
paper and others. with reference to the
Employment Of an assistant chemist,
places me in false position before the
people Of the State. and In justice to my
self j cannot afford to let the matter
pass unnoticed. From these accounts one
would gather the impression that ! had
applied for the continuance OF an Office
unnecessary TO the department, and that
In my duties / had a sinecure indeed.
This discovery was made by new men,
Der Of the board, who has an eagle eye
for economy in public Office. but who
think will change his opinion when he Is
familiar with all the facts. The question
whether or not the services OF two chem
lists are required In the Department OF
Agriculture is not a new one After the
enactment OF the statute OF 1855, creating
the Board of Agriculture. the work Of
the department was done In a different
manner or on a different basis. During
the old regime, when but one chemist
was employed. the analyses were publish
ed in a biennial report, so 1t did not
matter greatly when the work was done.
But the board changed all that and be-
gan at once the frequent issue of bulle-
tins of analyses and the publication
during the autumn Oh an annual report.
In order to get the work ready 1t was
found necessary to employ an assistant
chemist as early as six years ago, and
one has been employed every year since.
Under the new laws enacted In 1880 and
amended in 1894, by which every farmer
in the State is permitted to send samples
for analysis. the work Of the department
has grown three fold. and continues to
grow.
When samples are received at the office
they are generally accompanied by the
request that they be analysed and re-
ported on at once. 1t would be impossi-
BILE for one man to do this and give salts
faction. Even with two chemists en-
ployed there Is often necessary delay
that Is complained Of, for the farmers
know that the board has ample means
to have this work done quickly and
thoroughly.
Any one familiar with chemical work
who will take the trouble to examine the
Virginia agricultural reports for the
last few years, or who knows anything
of the number Of men employed for a
like quantity OF work In other States.
will. think, without hesitation justify
the Board OF Agriculture in hitherto en-
ploying two chemists. am. ETC..

AUSTRIAN JACK THE RIPPER.
Three Atr0cious Woman Murders Cause
"A SensatlOn.

A terrible double tragedy Of the Jack

naked and slashed with knife In the
regular Jack the-Ripper fashion, was
found to-day In addition, another woman
belonging 10 the same neighDorhood is

mand for factories conveniently situated.

Haxall Mills and around the Gallego

for these. Several factories In mats or

HAVE TOO MUCH POOR FARCE.
" YOn Yonson" and "A "Liberty Bell" to
BE Seen Here This Week.


The time has come. venture to think,
for a little "straight-talk" on the subject

beyond joke. Managers will presently
brighten the sane public away from their
theatres, and the simple public, though
doubtless large, Is not, l am convinced.

dience with every token of appreciation"
and pass on with a shrug of the shout

duty to the public. the managers, and,
not least. perhaps, TO the farce-writers
themselves. One has no right (and. for
my part, / have no inclination) altogether
TO look down upon farce and decline all
attempt to discriminate between what is
excellent, what is tolerab!e, and what Is
execrable. There are masterpieces Of farce
no less than of tragedy-let me name. as
representing three very different styles,
ia Cognotte," "a Midnight Belle"
and Dandy Dick" Then there are farces
of a somewhat lower order of workman
ship but embodying really comic idea,
whose popularity Is quite natural, legiti-
mate. and genuine. Such are "Charley's
Aunt" "Niobe," and "a Black Sheep"
We, In America, have lately developed
a special knack Of turning out effective
work OF this second order. and are be-
ginning to pay back England, Germany,
and even France. our borrowings OF by
gone days.
But II the export trade In farces Is to
continue-and IL not precisely a national
glory, 1t Is at least no national disgrace.
as the import trade sometimes threatens
to become-we must prove that We know
how to distinguish between comic inven-
ton and sheer brainless extravaganza. or.

CLEVELAND ON WOOL.
The President Dislikes Woolgrowers !
cause There Is No Trust.

The President Dislikes Woolgrowers Be-
cause There Is Ma Trust.
President Cleveland has a woolly rec
ord. He expressed himself very plain
ly, telling the people all about the farm
ers and their wool in his third annual
message to congress, Dec. g, 1887. He
did not commit himself so far as to say
that he knew. but he thought lit may
be fairly assumed that a large proper
ton of the sheep wned by the farmers
throughout the country are found in
small iocks numbering from 20 TO 90.
Upon this assumption he argued that
the benefit of the present tariff on
wool is illusory" and proceeded to show
from his point of view that it was u
burden upon the poor, the employed
and unemployed, the sick and well and
the young and old" He further proved
to his own complete satisfaction that it
was "a tax which, with relentless
grasp, is fastened upon the clothing of
every man, woman and child in the
land He did not state upon which
part of the clothing it was fastened or
whether fastened with a safety pin as
well with "a relentless grasp" This
was an oversight.
Senator Jones of Nevada, in his great
tariff speech of 1892, took up Mr.. Cleve-
lands sheepishness, and estimating 65
per cent as being IA large proportion
showed that we had in 1887 as many as
$50, $50 separate farmers who owned
f1ocks Of 80 sheep each and that there
We're 4, 900, 900 persons directly and Pc
cuniarily interested in the wool tariff.
As President Cleveland desired free
trade III wool because "a large proper
ton Of the sheep owned by the farmers
throughout the country are found i'll
small tiocks numbering from 20 To 80, "
the Inference is that free wool would
never have been thought of by him or
his party if the fiocks had been large
ones, concentrated among a few owners
or, in fact, if there had been a sheep
trust, a raw wool trust or both. Such ii
trust could have dictated its own terms,
but the unfortunate $50, 800 separate
farmers must be male 10 suffer. Presi
dent Cleveland and his party are mo
nopolists from the word go.
