The principal paper manufacturers
Of the nitcd States have formed into
a trust. with $4,000. 900 capital.
Their purpose is to monopolizc the
business, raise the price Of paper $S a
ton and levy upon the newspaper and
bookreadcrs Of the land Il tax Of not
less than 81 ,O00, 900 Il year. There
are seventeen mills in the trust, and
they propose to drive all the ether
mills out Of existence, SO that they
may charge what price they please for
the paper on which newspapers arc
printed. This is a conspiracy to tax
knowledge. to levy tribute upon cdu-
cation. to blackmail intelligence itself.
Unfortunately the tariff duties aid the
conspiracy. They not only prevent
Canadian aud other foreign compcti-
ton III the sale Of paper, but they cx-
cludc Canadian wood pulp. The free
admission Of wood pulp and paper
would 80 lar % crush the conspiracy.

4 Double Tragedy AZ Grorgia
Church.

ATLANTA. "a Feb. IL. 4. special
from Blue Ridge, Ga. to the Consti
tuition says
The country around here IS greatly
excited over Il bloody murder and til,
Subsequent killing Of the murderer BY
attendants ut the church, the murder
taking place III a country church to
day.
The arrival Of Mr.. Weeks TO call
uppn the sheriff and posse to proceed
to the scene Of the tragedy aud restore
quiet, brought the first news Of the
terrible occurrence. The sheriff at
once summoned :, strong force. and i
now absent upon his mission.
II seems that the congregation o!
the church, situated about ~ miles
distant from this point. had quietly
assembled for the purpose III devotion
chile come of the young men remain
ed outside to discuss the topics Of the
day rather than enter The house Of
Worship. \ young man named Raw
Inns from North Carolina, who hao
been yisiting this section, made his
appearance aud was proceeding quietly
toward the church 'lnor when some Of
The boys began poklns fun at him
because OF some popularity in his
gait. The words spoken were so often
siyc that itawlins turned around to
reply 10 what was said, when IL youn"
man named Frey began abusing him.
The two men came together and the
young North Carolinian was about 10
get the best of the fight when Whit
billiard, another Of the on-lookcrs,
drew his pistol and fired at lta Wins.
The ball entered the mans face on
the left cheek and ranging to the back
Of his neck, killed him instantly, and
he died in the clutches Of his advcr-
sary.
by this time everybody within hear
ing was aroused and the deepest indig-
nation prevailed that the young man
should have prccipitated Il tragedy in
such a place. Billiard had quietly
slipped away with several Of his com
panions. Esquire galloway, one Of
the leading citizens, and a number Of
responsible men got together and
decided that the foul tragedy should
be avenged. Mounting horses they
put out in pursuit and soon overlook
tic fleeing murderer. He was called
upon to surrender, but paid no attcn-
ton to the command. Finally, when
he saw that the men were in carncst,
he backed himself against Il tree, Il II
nounccd that he would die game. Then
the firing began, when Il bullet from
the posse struck him with fatal effect
and he fell to the ground with his
finger % the trigger Of his ris,o!,
dying in the very act Of giving re-
Sponsc to his assailants.
All conservative and law-abiding
people indorse IT," action Of the posse,
but the dead man had friends aud
trouble is expected from this quarter.

The extent to which irrigation has
been developed in Nebraska appears in
tho surprising total OF 1880 miles Of
ditches constructed, with LOGS more
miles in cOurso OF construction. Thus
far in t%hirty-nine counties ,olG, 52i acres
has been benefited by irrigation, the
estimated consequent increase in the
value Of the land being 1912, 1872, or
about IS per acre. The cost Of the bitches
In operation was $l,57t,3s3, or about IL
per cent Of the added value. Tho work
In course OF construction will cost about
as much more. When done, one county
will have PIG miles OF ditch, another
county l54, and two others about 4oO
each. In addition application has been
made for water for 2,771 more miles Of
bitches, but permits are withheld until it
can be determined whether there will be
water to spare. These contemplated
