Railroad Land Grants.

WASHINGTON, March 22.-There is a
provision in the sundry civil bill
which will probably result in the sur
vey of all lands within the limits of
railroad grants. By the terms of the
grants to railroads, the roads were
compelled to pay for the survey of
their lands when the title could pass,
but hereafter the government is
oblibed to pay for the survey of even
numbered sections within these grants.
Slowly as che appropriations have been
used outside as we'll as inside the
grants. But in the last bill separate
appropriation of 100000 was made
for the survey of lands within railroad
grants and it is made a continuous
appropriation.

IT isn't best to be too sensitive IN
this wide and troubled world. Don't
allow yourself to worry over what
people say about you. No matter
what you do it appears differently to
different eyes. One will pronounce it
just the right thing while others will
decide it is wholly bad. At the best
you can only please a certain few,
while the great majority don't know
what you are doing and don't care.
Do what you think best uuder the
circumstances, and let the results be
what they may.
BI-METALLIsTs are of the opinion
that silver will advance to 81 per
ounce should Japan demand its indem-
nifty of $250,O0O,O00 in that metal.
This would mean the starting up Of
every idle silver mine, the unhanging
of thousands of stamps in hundreds Of
mills throughout the mining states
and territories, and would give
renumerative employment to thus
ands of miners who have been in
enforced idleness for years by reason
of the demonstration of silver
More than this, it would tend to set
the wheels of industry in motion
Throughout the whole country, and
instead of having an army of idlers
to be supported at the expense of the
public, there would be an army OF
producers, self-reliant, self-respecting
and happy. If the indemnity be
paid in gold alone, it will result in
draining the single standard countries
of their surplus, enhance the the value
of silver, and eventually compel The
adoption of the double standard II
either case the result will be good
but the greater advantages to this
country would be derived through the
exclusive payment of silver.-P. l.
