WHAT I SAW AND HEARD,

| LA 4 Sa w IAN ~ II hLAhD,
Some people are of the opinion
thai patriotism means making a
grand stand play.
Public Printer Palmer, remark
ed republican politician, a few
days ago, ls one of the few public
men who does just what he says.
Commissioner j. W. Ross is not
insincere to his friends. Ii all
democrats were as good as Mr.. Ross
we would need no republican party,
so far as negroes are concerned.
Whatever his faults may be, he is
an honest man.
Register Lyons has gone South
to fix up a few fences that were
about to fall. The register has
heavy responsibilities upon his
shoulders. The colonel will do
his duty, but l fear the job will be
too much for him.
Rev. j. Anderson Taylor is to be
congratulated over his election as
president of the Baptist Associ-
alton. Rev. Taylor is a man on
whom you can rely. The associ-
alton has an able and active presi-
dent.
Recorder H. P. Cheatham has
reasons to feel proud of his state,
North Carolina. DR.. Shepperd said
the other day, that the entire regi-
ment from North Carolina will be
colored men. The governor has
struck key note.
Yes there will be member of the
Excise Board in place of M.
Johnson. He may be distasteful to
some people but he is a gentleman
who has large constituency
behind him than any young man
in this country. This is a political
administration and the man whose
pole is not long enongh to knock
down the persimmons he sis not
in it..
There is one man in public Of
fee who has the respect and conf
dence of all who know him.
He is a genial man and an up.to
date official. He is the deputy
register of the treasury, Mr.. Chew.
He has white face, as we'll as
white heart.
There are some colored people
who are of the opinion that the white
people are opposed to them. What
the white people want the negro to
do is, to depend more upon them
selves, educate their children and
be good citizens. If the colored
agitators are of the opinion that
they can force their boys and girls
in white business houses, they are
mistaken. What the colored man
must do is to establish his own
business houses and employ his
own boys and girls. We must
learn how to do for ourselves.
If one half of the Salvation army |
would devote little of their rell- 4!
gion in reforming the thieves who |
are caught, instead of trying to
break up saloons it would be do
ing a good business. 1t does seem
ridiculous that people who call !,
themselves temperance advocates
should be continually endeavoring
to break up legitimate business.
Business must be dull among
the police. The poor negro is GER
tainly being brought up under the
Edmund's law, while the white
man and woman are allowed to 90
unmolested.
There seems to be no more satis-
faction with the appointment of
Capt. Beach than there was with
the retention of Capt. Black.
Whatever DR.. Purvis faults NAV
be, said local politician a few DAYS
ago, he never was too white to en-
ploy colored people to do his work
and was never too proud to do his
luty to his friends.
District Attorney Davis is max
ng strong fight to convict Canty.

THE NAMING OF JOHN BULL.
DIR. ArbuthnOt Was the Man Who
Thua Duhhed Great Britain.

DR.. ArbuthnOt Was the Man Who
Thus Dubbed Great Britain.
DIR. John Arbuthnot, one of the many
royal physicians to whom the Scotch
city of Aberdeen has given birth, was
the author of John Bulls being. AL
most forgotten now by all but the
erudite, who remember him as the init
mate of Pope and Swift, Arbuthnot
christened the British nation in bulk as
John Bull in the political strife Incl
dental to the dismissal Of the Wing
ministry of 171O, when the able and
avaricious Marlborough saw the begin
ming of the decline of his brilliant for
tunes.
1.-The History of John Bull was
satire on the political events preceding
the treaty Of Utrecht in l713, written
by Arbuth. .lot. In 1904 he had been Gre
ated physician extraordinary to the
queen in recognition of his services In
saving the life of Anne's husband,
Prince George of Denmark. He had be-
come the queens medical attendant. a
position of no mean Importance at
time when SO much depended on the
succession to the crown, and he was
closely in touch with court life.
"For the better understanding OF the
following history the reader ought tc
know that Bull in the main was an
honest, plain dealing fellow, choleric'
bold and of very inconstant temper.
He dreaded not old Lewis, either al
backsword, single falchion or cudge
play, but then he was very apt to quar-
rel with his best friends, especially i
they pretended to govern him. If yor
flattered him, you might lead him like
a child. Johns temper depended yer,
much on the air; his spirits rose and fel
with his weather glass.
"John was quick and understood hi
business very we'll, but no man aliv
was more careless in looking into hi
accounts or more cheated by partners.

POWER IN OUR POWDER.
A Shot From a 13 Inch Rifle Sufficient
to Lift n Battleship Eight Feet.

A Shot From u ID lnch H1ue SuIncleht
to Lift n Battleship Eight Feet.
"Velocity and pressure, explained
the powder mill superintendent, "are
the two main requisites in proving pow.
der. The government is very specific in
it's contracts. 1t demands that when
fired under service conditions in the gun
for which it is intended powder must
give to the projectile muzzle velocity
of at least a certain number Of feet per
second without producing pressure OF
more than certain number OF tons to
the square inch. For modern guns the
velocity required varies from 1000 to
2, 800 feet in a second, and the pressure
is not allowed to exceed Is tons to the
square inch. In some of our guns OF the
present day the amount Of energy stored
up in the powder charge is so tremen-
dous as to be almost incredible. The
limit of energy upon the projectile can
not be estimated, SO vast are the possi-
bilities
"For example, / may cite the Ore
CONS IL inch rifles. Five hundred and
fifty pounds Of powder in these guns
impart to an 1, 100 pound shot a velocity
of 2, 100 feet per second, and the energy
Of the projectile is nearly 81, 900 foot
tons. This power is sufficient to lift
such a vessel as the Oregon eight feet
out of the water.
"Those screens between the cannon
and the breastworks are electric chrome
graphs 100 feet apart from each other
and the cannon, and they register the
time of the projectile's fight with abso'
Lutte accuracy"
"And absolute accuracy is--what?'

A Pest Of Wolves.

]. b. Binder, a ranchman from the
Little Bend country, South Dakota, in
speaking of the pest of gray wolves
which has been disturbing ranchmer
for several years, Gays they must fol
the present count on a certain per cent
of loss from this source every year. He
considers the Kidding of the range coun-
try of these pests one of the serious
problems with which cattlemen have &c
deal. The difficulties encountered in the
work are numerous, one of them being
an impossibllity TO use poison. because
this class of wolves, unlike the prairie
wolves, never touch carcass left living
on the prairie, but only eat OF those
they have killed and refuse to touch
the same carcass the second time.
This trait only makes them the more
destructive. as they kill whenever they
are hungry. and after eating what they
want leave the rest of the animal lying
on the prairie. So far hunting them
with dogs has not been successful, as
the hounds which can catch them, even
II they are sighted. either cennot or will
not kill them, and the heavier dogs
which could handle them are not swift
enough TO get up to them. Then
they are so shy and watchful when out
OF their dens that 1t Is almost impossi-
BILE to get within rifle shot of them
Taken altogether they are hard ami
mails TO get off the range, and what to
do with them Is the question.
| Mr. Binder is attempting to breed a
! class Of dogs which he thinks can han.
die them II they get out on the prairie

several times this winter in sections
where the wolves have been at work

one of the animals. although traces OF

While they are destructive to all
classes of stock and are likely to pun
down full grown horses and cattle, they
do the most damage among colts anc
next among calves. 1t has been esti.
mated that the destruction by gray
wolves over the range country of the
northwest IS over 100000 year, and
