MOUNTAIN HOME, March 10, 1897.

In spite OF the money he must spend
in keeping up the dignity of his posi-
ton the President of the United States
usually makes a very neat sum of
money during his four years in Office.
His salary for the term amounts to
100000, and this, it is estimated, is
only about two-thirds OF what he re-
ally receives. He, as everybody knows,
has the White House rent free, and
money is appropriated every year to
pay the running expenses of it. This
sum averages about 1000 every
year. His stable is taken care of for
him and this amounts to about SIS, OOO
during the term. The government
provides him with private secretary
and pays his salary which is $1,000 a
year. He is provided with private
doorkeeper whose salary of $1 500 a
year is paid by Uncle Sam. He has
light, heat and newspapers free, and
oaCAh No anyways az MS manu- 10 40 his
bidding. Also, the election to the
presidency is a gift of paid up life
insurance for four years, as the widow
Of President who dies IN Office has a
pension OF $4,000 year. In the case
OF Mrs. Garfield this was supplemented
by gift of 100000 by the people OF
the country. When the four years OF
glory have passed and the President
becomes what we so proudly term an
"ordinary citizen" he usually retains
some of the glory which attached it
self to him while in Office, because il
he be lawyer he is able to demand
fees ten times larger than he re-
ceived before his election to the office
Ex-President Harrison can readily
command $4,000 for a single case.

Farewell, Grover. We doff our
hat to your worthy goldbug sue
cessor and wish that he may i'm
prove the condition of the laboring
classes during his administration,
Is there no ground for the belief,
asks the N. Y. World, that this
government is not conducted in the
interest of class-the rich? Can
it successfully be denied that the
rich are chiefly benefited by high
tariff, that by the monopolies fos-
tered by such law enormous for
tunes are heaped up and used to
control the government? Do not
big railway corporations control the
course of legislation? Are not laws
sold every day in the year, from
city councils to state legislature?

What a good, kind soul is Mark
Hanna, the great sack bearer of the
Republican party. A correspondent
OF the st. Louis Republic, writing from
Pittsburg, Pa, says: "Mr. Hanna has
troduced the iron-clad contract at his
Panhandle mine, where / had list of
thirty families that were starving. The
men had to sign it. Now the mines
owned by other Cleveland operators
are going to adopt similar measures to
compel their men to work. At the
Hanna mine the men are allowed to
put in only half time, and the little
work given them will not allow them
TO average IS cents per day. Just i'm
sgine man with family living on
that, especially after he pays 81 a
month for half OF a shanty to shelter
his family, and which costs only 5000
to build. do not believe the miners
condition was ever worse, and we are
going to see if we can get the State to
investigate"

General Cassius NJ. Clay. of Ker

General Cassius M. Clay, of Ken
lucky has been granted a pension
of $50 per month, being a veteran
of the Mexican war. 1t will be
remembered that General Clay in
1894, when over so years of age,
married an ignorant and uncouth
14-year-old girl. The i'll sorted
marriage caused a great sensation
IN the upper social circles of the
blue grass state. The General en-
ployed a governess and music
teacher for his child wife, hoping to
tit her in the course of time to pre-
aide with some degree of grace and
dignity over his palatial home. 1t
Is said that all attempts to refine
and accomplish his bride have
proved lamentable failure. Fear
ing that his children. upon his death
would rob his wife of what estate he
might leave, he applied for the pen
sion which has recently been granted
him thus making sure provision for
her in case of his death.

The Statesman puts it this way:
This man JONES occupies a posi-
ton in which he is kicked by all.
That is perhaps natural. Honest
men dislike him because of his ac-
knowledged venality and rogues
hate him because they have no pa
thence with an informer."
Senator Heitfeld has been sworn
in and taken his seat in the U. S.
Senate. He denies any knowledge
of bribery at his election and asks
for an investigation by the COM
mittee on privileges and elections.
G. c. Fuller, his private secretary,
also disclaims having any hand in
the JONES affair.

that one of the questions that will

II am Of legal age" is sufficient to

oath that they are of legal age, it is
all that any registrar can require of

WHEAT CBoP OF 1896.
OF the Total 26.4O Per Cent Remains in
the Hands of Growers.

Springfield Mass, March S.-Accord-
ing to the special report in the New
England Homestead, carefully consoli-
dated and average returns from local
26. 40 per cent. of the whole wheat crop
of '96 still remains in growers hands.
The total thus indicated in first hands
amounts to 124,175,000 bushels, or the
smallest farm supply of wheat reported
on March 1 since 1891, when the gov
ernment estimate Of 112,000,000 was fol-
lowed by practical exhaustion.
The total named includes wheat sur
plus held by farmers for sale, amount
reserved for spring seeding and amount
held for local milling purposes. Ac-
cording to revised returns of this au-
thority, farmer stocks March 1 a year
ago were 145, 900, 900 bushels.
In present farm stocks Minnesota
leads with 100000, followed by South
Dakota with 100000. In winter wheat
states Ohio is credited with 100000 Of
old wheat, Kansas nearly 100000,
Pennsylvania and Illinois each 100000
and Michigan 100000 Present farm

above, are the largest ever known at
this time of the year-nearly As per
cent, or 1,0S3 900 bushels of last
years crop, still remaining on the
farm.
This does not include the amount
held in cribs by outside capital, which
may equal million more. This au-
thority estimates that Iowa and Neb-
raska each held 5S per cent. of the lat
est crop March L, or respectively 1872
100000 and 143.00O,000 bushels. Illinois
is credited with 40 per cent. of the '96
crop or 146o00,000 bushels.
A year ago the southern states held
large reserves of their home produc-
ton, while new stocks there are small.
Farm reserves of oats are estimated to
equal to scant 40 per cent. of last year S
crop and are placed at 2S5000,000 bush
els. Farm stocks in March a year ago
were reported at 415,0O0,000 and in '95 at
254,O00,000 bushels.

Steps Taken to Prevent KnowIege of Their
Construction from Escaping.
Washington, March 8.-Steps have
been taken by the war department to
further guard the seaopast defences
from inquisitive inspection by persons
who ought not to know what precau-
tions the United States have taken for
protection in time of war.
The rigorous regulations already in
force during the building of fortifica-
tions have, now that many works are
approaching completion, been supplies
mented and emphasized by the follow
ing general orders from Major General
Miles, commanding the army, which
were issued to-day:
mo persons except officers of the ar
my and navy of the United States and
persons in the service Of the United
States employed in direct connection
with the use, construction or care of
these works will be allowed to visit any
portion of the lake and coast defences
of the United States without the writ
ten authority of the commanding Off
Ger in charge.
Neither written nor pictorial de-
scriptions of these works will be made
for publication without the authority
of the secretary of war, nor will any
| information be given concerning them
which is not contained in the printed
reports and documents of the war de-
partment.
Commanding generals of depart-
ments will see that this order is carr
ried into effect, and that the permis-
sion to visit the defences referred to is
only given for proper military reasons.
Commanding officers, ordance SER
geants and others in charge of fortifi-
cations, or any means of lake or coast
defences, will exercise great care in
acting upon applications to visit the
works. and will grant such only as may
be warranted for good and sufficient
military reasons.
Commanding generals of depart-
ments concerned will give to this mat
ter their continued personal attention,
to the end that any dereliction of the
! duty herein enjoined may be immedi-
ately observed and promptly met by
discipline"
