The president of the American Asso-
citation OF Librarians said, in the recent
general conference of thai body, that
the number of volumes in the Libraries
OF this country had more than trebled
since 1876. The chief cause of this
great increase, he said, is a Wholesome
growth of public perception of the
value Of good books. This fact, even
more than the willingness of the rich
TO found and endow libraries, is a mat
ter for national satisfaction. Unused
libraries do not speak well for their
possessor.

The British consul general in Japan,
liz a recently issued report. states that
lowing to the financial depression in
America, that country has made its ap-
pearance as a serious competitor with
Europe in the cupply OF machinery,
rails. nails and pig iron. 1t has been
stated that American nails have be ,
sold largely in Japan about the end Of
1896 at so per cent. lower than prices
current in the United States, and these
goods altogether defied the COMPETE
ticn of German makers, who have hith-
erto held the trade. About 80, 900 tons
of American rails were sold to Japan
at lower prices than British makers
were willing to accept" Another mat
ter OF some Importance. and one which
may have considerable bearing on the
future Of the American iron and steel
trade, is discussed in Mr.. Sanderson's
report. 1t is. that the United States,
not content with its enormous railway
mileage, is providing means for i'm
proving its water carriage. The ex-
listing canals. such as the Erie, the
Champlain, the Oswego, the Black
River. the Cayuga and Seneca, are TO
be widened and deepened. Besides
this, a commission Of inquiry as to
deep-water canals has recently made a
report.

SCOTLAND NECK, n. c.. July lS.-
(special)-The County Commissioners
were in special session yesterday to con-
slider and act upon the tax-lists. They
practically declared that there will be
no election in this county in August on
the question Of public schools. They in
structed the clerk of the board TO notify
the Sheriff not to serve notice on poll
holders appointed a week ago, and TO
notify registrars in precincts where the
=. eistration- books were not open six
Saturdays before the date Of election
that there will be no election in such
precincts. They did this because they
learned that the Observation-Disclosures were
NOT opened in the precincts six weeks
before the date set for the election. This
practically declares no election in the
county.
The report comes from the western part
of the county that there are many moon
sinners operating there. and that some
of them are desperate and propose to
deal roughly with any one who interferes
with their business. They have been
slow TO operate in this section. but 1t
seems that they have taken strong hold
at last. They sell whiskey cheaper, 1t is
said. than barkeepers can, and so In
some places have broken up bar-rooms.
