Tried and Found Wanting.

Twelve months administration of the
affairs of Colfax county by the Republi-
can board of county commissioners has
sufficed to ruin it's financial standing.
Notwithstanding that they have burdened
the county with bonded Indebtedness
of $4,000, county warrants can be cnshed
only at discount of rs per cent. This
condition has been brought about first
by wasteful extravaganza on the part of
the commissioners who listened to the
advice of men who do not care for con-
sequences so long as they are individually
benefited and secondly by the commits
sioners listening to the persuasive
tongues of the representatives of the
holders of valuable estates, reducing
their taxes to one-half and one-quarter
of what they ought to be.-Raton Re-

PRESS COMMENT.
One On Elkins.

After the Republican caucus had de-
termined upon the assignment of COM
mittees, Senator Elkins found that he had
missed cog, while Senator Carter had
got place he very much desired, which
was Interstate commerce.
"See here, Carter" said he, 81 see you
are on Interstate commerce. Now pre-
sumo you don't care much about that;
am on territories, and I don't care any
thing about that. 1t is much more in
your line, you being from the west, and
you know all about territories. Now, let
us trade; l will give you territories, and
you give me Interstate commerce."
Senator Carter looked at the big man
from West Virginia, who was all earnest
ness with his proposal, and said in his
slow, distinct voice: "Steve, I'll join with
you to rob some other fellow; but don't

PRAcr1cAL C1vm SERVICE.

The beauties and goodness of the civil
service system were clearly stated by st.
Paul's Republican postmaster, who re-
Gently closed his four years in Office,
the last three being under a Democratic
administration. His farewell address to
his carriers and clerks concludes as fol-
lows: ~
Each one Of you should be at all
times a jealous missionary Of the gospel
Of political salvation through civil serv-
ice reform. To the civil service law
most Of you owe your appointments,
and all Of you owe your secure official
tenure. To the conscientious enforce
ment Of this law and the consequent
divorce Of the postal service from par
tisan politics much Of its phenomenal
efficiency is due. To do its current work
would require at least twice the number
Of men now employed il appointed and
dismissed under the old spoils system.
For three years have held this Office in
subordination to officials at the capital
with whom / have not had or pretended
to have particle Of sympathy or affilia-
tion on the political issues Of the day.
Yet in no single instance during all that
period has a political question been
raised in any matter Of appointment, OF
administration or. any other matter. I
have been as we'll treated at headquar-
tiers as could have been had been a
Democrat. You have been as we'll treat
ed by me as you would have been if you

The natural result of such production
is the lowering of the price of agricul-
tural products and the depression Of
farming interests. Everything points to
prosperity in the near future, for the free
arabic lands which have been converted
into farms SO rapidly during the last 25
years are about exhausted. If this be SO,
the number of farms in operation to the
number of inhabitants, aud in that case
the amount of their produce, will more
nearly equal the consuming power of the
country. The whole trouble with the
farmer is that for the last ten years he
has produced more than the worlds
market would take at paying rate to
himself. The natural results of such a
condition have followed
Looked at from this standpoint, we
cannot see that silver has had anything
to do with the result. The indications
are, as the number Of farms decrease in
proportion to the population, that agri
culture will soon begin to regain its
former prosperity.

The, aggregate number Of criminals in
our prisons Of all kinds is 82.829, or
1915 out Of each million inhabitants.
The total for the western states is 1921
to each million and for the northeastern
1894. These statistics are to be modi-
fed by the consideration that many
criminals In the east Zee to the west,
while scarcely any western criminals go
east.
Another very significant consideration
is that within ten years the increase Of
criminals has been far less in the west
than in the east. In the western section,
from 1880 to 1890, there was an increase
Of 90 in each million, while in the east

A New VIEW OF THE AGRICULTURAL
DEPRESSION.

A New VIEW OF THE AGRICULTURAL
DEPRESSION.
The thinking farmer might get good
deal of comfort from the figures given
below, compiled by Mr.. G. Wood Davis,
concerning the increase of agricultural
products during the last 80 years. The
tendency has been to lay all the depres-
sion Of agriculture upon the demonetiza-
ton of silver, but the fact is that the
farmer has been prosperous in times of
decentralization of silver.
The prostration of farming and the
low prices of land throughout the coun-
try are due not so much to the fact that
they are incumbered with debts, said to
be more burdensome than ever now in
consequence of the gold standard, but
that farmers have been competing with
free arabic lands. The generosity of the
government has placed in the hands of
many thousands of citizens millions Of
acres of farming land situated in the
west. Coming into the possession Of farms
without any great outlay of capital. the
owners have been able to place on the
markets produce at a lower price than
those who were located on high priced
land. In consequence produce has in
creased out of all proportion to the pop
ulation.
The following table for 80 years, end
ing with 1889, shows the percentages Of
increase:

Customers do not get the small

our Christmas Cake. 1t is as clean
as it is possible to make it, and it is
just as good as it is clean only the
very best material being used in its
manufacture. All fruit is washed
by our own process Particular
care is given to the baking. The
choicest butter is used in making
Christmas Cake, just as it is in our
pastry. Orders have already been
received from many of the best
families in Texarkana, Many Of
them have made their own Christ
mas Cake heretofore but a sample
has convinced them that baking, as
we do, hundreds of pounds we can
bake better cake than they can,
and sell it to them for less money
than they can possibly make it for,
1t sells at 25 cents per pound and is

not been that Wallie Henry and w,

who was on hand The deponent
says | was on hand at the candy
stew at the residence of j. S.
Ragland on the night Of the 1lth,
and everything passed of nice and
quietly and the candy pulled to a
crisp brittle and was sweet to the
taste, The candy was put in boxes
for the guests to carry home and on
the eve Of departure, one of the
ladies present declared that she
had lost a valuable diamond out Of
her ring, The loss was made known
aud search instituted, but the
missing stone could not be found
1t was suggested that the stone
might have pulled out in the candy
aud they reduce 1t again to liquid
state and prosecuted the search,
this was done by pouring boiling
water over the candy, and with all
this the diamond was not found,
We are truly sorry Tor the lady's
loss and hope she may yet be able
to Hnd the stone,
