A new JAIL CERTAIN.
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS WILL MEET
NEXT TUESDAY
To Adopt Plans and Advertise tor Bids
To Be Located on the Court
House Lot.

The county commissioners haYe gone
earnestly into the work of providing a
much needed new Jail for Terrell county,
and it won't be long now before work
on the building will be begun.
For a month the commissioners have
been,considerihg the different plans sub
mitted to them by Jail builders, and now
they are about ready to adopt plans and
advertise for bids for doing the work.
They will hold a special meeting for this
purpose on next Tuesday, the 18th inst.
The present Jail, which was built many
years ago, is entirely too small for the
increasing demand upon it, and besides
is so constructed as to be perfect place
of torture for the inmates in both the
cold and hot months. 1t is absolutely
unfit for human beings to remain in.
The new Jail will cost between $4,000
and SIC, 900, and will be located on the
southeast corner of the court house lot.

were seen by the little girl of the house,
who ran into her mammals room, crying
out. ooh, mamma, Use afraid Two
horrid tramps are on the piazza and are

MONEYFOR THE WIDOWS.
The NecessarylPension Blanks Now Ready
for Them.

The NecessarylPension Blanks Now Ready
for Them.
Judge Roberts, of the Court of CT IL
nary for Terrell county, has received the
necessary blanks for the payment of
pensions to the wido VS. of Confederate
soldiers residing in this county, and all
are requested to call at his office in the
court house and sign the application
blanks.
There will be plenty of money to pay
the widows pensions, although in this
connection it may be stated that the esti-
mate of the pension department shows
that the legislature did not realize the
undertaking i'm carrying out the new
pension law, which was ratified at the
last election.
Under this law all disabled Confeder-
ate soldiers, whether their disability is
due to service in the army or not, are
entitled to a $50 pension annually. The
legislature added $4,000 to the pension
appropriation for this purpose, but al
ready the department has discovered
that this $4,000 will hardly pay half
those who are entitled to state aid under
tine new law.

New Boats.

John d. Rockefeller has ordered q
feet of eight new steamers and the
Minnesota Iron company has ordered
two big barges. 1t is said Rockefeller
viii make his order two more this
winter. He says he expected general
ly prosperous conditions for some
time now and that this is good time
to invest in vessel property.
The two barges for the Minnesota
will be built at the Calumet yard
where the Minnesota has already two
barges under construction which these
are to duplicate. They are fragile
toys, 352 feet long, Il beam, IS deep,
built of steel, of course, and reinforced
with all the solid finish that charac-
terizes the Minnesota company s feet.
One Of the Rockefeller ships is TO be
built at the same yard. She is steel
also. 400 feet long, IS beam, q deep,
about the same dimensions and pat
tern as the Victoria and Zenith City
which came from the same yard.
Work is to begin at once and the
boats may be ready for launching
next August.
The rest of the order is placed at
different yards on the lakes. All the
boats viii have tonnage Of 1900 cal
culated on a draft of II feet inches.
That means boat 100 feet long and
of the best modern construction in
every way.
1t insures activity in al the ship

clincheS the assertion that both min
ing companies are figuring on an
increased business next summer.

Legislation Needed.

/ The Minneapolis Journal hops on
TO the government in the following
true words regarding the reserve tim
Der OF the country: The secretary
Of the interior, in his recent annual
report, alludes TO the close relations
between Irrigation and forest pres
eryation and maintenance and the
regulation Of timber cutting. If we
hack al our timber down, We impair
the moisture supply and dry up the
springs. The government has re-
served from settlement 1900, 900
acres Of land as forest preserves about
the headwaters of many streams. and
such forest reservations viii prove Of
incalculable benefit TO the public if
the forests are really and effectually
protected from fire and the AK. So
far congress has not made adequate
provision for their protection. as there
have been only 80 special agents
designated TO look after the 1900. Oo0
acres Of forest land. II is useless to
expect effective work from such a
small force. If it is the national
policy TO protect our forest lands and
We begin by setting apart 1900, 900
acres of such lands. the whole pro-
ceeding is a mere trayesty Of the
science of forestry if capable agents
are not appointed in sufficient
numbers TO protect the lands. ANY
intelligent system of forestry, such
as obtains in Germany and France,
provides for resident foresters. nu-
merous enough TO protect the Ieser-
vations and see that when timber is
cut it will be cut from the old trees,
so as TO thin out the growth without
interfering with the sturdy. younger
growth.
The secretary of the interior says
that if the depredations continue as
at present, the reservations viii in a
very few years not have a stick of
timber left upon them. This is a
sufficient argument for congress to
legislate sufficient protection for the
forests Thirty agents cannot pro-
tect them. and, if congress won't
furnish protection, the whole effort
to protect the forests may as well be
given up II it is abandoned, there
viii come a day when the neglect of
an important interest viii be deeply
deplored.,

Land for Settlers.

A dispatch from Washington Of
last week says Congressman Eddy
and Towne, in whose districts are the
Indian reservations of the state, and
Senator Nelson. who, by virtue Of his
residence in the northern part of the
state and as author Of the Chippewa
legislation of 1889, viii naturally take
the initiative in new legislation on
the same general subject, have arrang-
ed to call together on Secretary Hoke
Smith early next week TO talk over
Indian affairs in Minnesota. The
three Minnesota gentlemen are
anxious to ascertain the views of the
interior department on the subject at
once. The great Red lake reservation
toward which omany eyes are turned,
lies across the boundary between the
Sixth and Seventh districts. The
agricultural lands are in the latter
district and the timber lands are
almost altogether in the Sixth. How
eyer. the streams down which much
of the lumber viii be fioated flow TO
the west. and therefore Mr.. Eddy's
constituents have an interest in the
timber also. With the united action
that is promised in house and senate,
it is probable that al necessary legis-
lation will be enacted. although il
may not be along the line suggested
by Maj. Baldwin just before he left
for the west to-day.
There is no doubt" said he, THAT
at least a million acres OF agricultural
lands on Red lake reservation will be
opened by the first proclamation. No
date for the opening has, as yet, been
fixed. but it viii be as early in the
spring as practicable This proclama-
ton viii be followed by another
which viii include land on some Of
the other reservations. / see no rea-
son why the allotments should not be
completed in the spring. The sec
retary's instructions and orders are
that the work of the commission must
be brought to a close as early as
possible. 1t has not been the custom
to do much work in the winter, but /
have some work blocked out which /
