clear over and over again that the rights
CT the United States as creditor can
be tangible only by discharge of prior
liens upon the roads, and that these first
mortgages cover the full value of the
roads.
It would seem, therefore, that ordi-
nary business sense ought to suggest to
anyone that the wise plan is that which
secures the Government by augmented
guarantees and frequent installment
payments. on the basis of extension of
time, rather than to insist upon fore
lclosure and sale, under which the claim
Of the United States would be subordi-
nate to prior liens that will leave no
margin for the junior creditor.
The whole matter is one Of business
prudence and ought to be treated with

creditors unable to pay, securities over
burdened, proposition to augment the
security and insure payment under ex-
tension, and thus avoid the advance Of
more than the sum due the United
States in order to discharge prior liens
before the Government can recover.
The East sees after such possible re-
covery and possession roads to be sold
that will not bring their cost to the Gov
ernment, and which, if operated by the
Government, California agitators are
openly declaring must be run at loss

will never consent to any such scheme

Talking Wi.hou. a tongue.

Ability to talk without tongue
seems o paradox, but o Bradford
Pa.) doctor is evidence in his own
person that it is possible. DIR. A.
NJ. Williams was afflicted with o dis
ease which rendered necessary the
removal of the entire tongue, the
left tonsil, and some neighboring
glands. With these gone, according
to general belief, speech would be
impossible. Yet DIR. Williams "can
speak so as to be fairly well under
Stood" o correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Ledger reports, and he has
expectations that within short
time his speech will greatly i'm
prove. In studying out the subject
Of speech the doctor discovered that
persons are right or cleft" in the
use of the organs of the mouth and
throat, as they arc in the use of the
hands. In his own case he was
"left" in the use of the mouth and
throat muscles-a circumstance
which makes his ability to talk the
more remarkable, because some Of
the organs Of the left side had been
removed with the tongue. He is in
clined to the theory that, while the
preferred use of the right or left
hand is generally q case Of education
or choice, the involuntary discrimi-
cation which leads to the use of one
set of throat muscles is in most
cases tho result of heredity.

A Post Setter

o.
The following is description ola
new invention, gotten up by Geo. W.
Swiger, of Brown. West Virginia, and
patented July II, 1896, for setting a
post-a device by which one man can
do the work Of four men in any kind Of
ground: In wet land it drives the wa
ter back with the dirt and you can set
a post perfectly tight and solid, and in
grayely, stony land if the setter strikes
stone, it will burst same or turn it
on edge, and not interfere with setting
thepost. You can put hole down
in from three to five minutes, all day
long. By this process We take no dirt
out nor put none back. The very idea
of being down on your knees, running
your clothes aud finger nails when there
is no use oft Byrolling the patent set
ter you can put down. large hole as
we'll MS u small one. 1t is n great saw
ing to farmers. as there are more posts to
set ut the present day than ever before.
III fencing town lots there is o
sight SO arranged on setter that you can
make the fence perfectly straight with
out line. Works in shape Of bale
can be thrown up or down. You can
see sample ut Clarksburg, West yir-

chance now for good live agents. Best

There is great need for q low

who sends to the TRIBUNE di-
rect the regular price of $500 a
year. This is Q bargain, consid-
ering the fact that the TRIBUNE
is incapable of sending INTO any
family anything which is unfit to
be read there.
II is to be noted, in connection
with this matter, that the cray.
ing for color and innocent enter
tainment, if not grati6ed by a
readers favorite paper, will, in
these times. lead him to buy
less desirable publications. The
TRIBUNE is a great, safe, clean
family paper, and in adding

Lost in . Great city.

Frank P. Arbuckle, chairman
of the Democratic committee of
Colorado. and one of the wealth.
lest and most prominent men OF
that State, went to New York
after the election and early one
morning was found dead under
mysterious circumstances. 1t is
know that he had been making a
saloon tour and exhibited a large
roll of money in a part of the
city where money is very at.
tractive to the kind of people who
loaf around there of nights.
Here is a moral forpersonswhc
visit large cities. Its better no,
to make a round of the saloons a,
all, better to keep in respectable
neighborhoods, better to show
no more money at any time than
is absolutely necessary. In every
great city are men looking TO,
just such visitors.
Money and life are not nearly
so safe in q great city as among
the mountains of West Virginia.
