The number of lynchings during the last
few weeks has created the impression that
this year will show an increase over pre-
vious years. AS matter of fact, there
have been but thirty-one since Jan. 1, and
at the present rate the years total will be
less than 100. The Chicago Tribune's
figures for 1898 were 1877, and for 1897,
166. Hence there has really been de-
crease. This year, as last, the vast ma
jority of lynchings have been of negroes,
and have taken place in the Southern
States.
In the talk Of Spanish war anniversaries
those of the rebellion are already forgot
ten. It was thirty-seven years ago, on
April %, 1862, that Flag Officer Farra-
gut appeared with his feet before the city
of New Orleans and demanded it's uncon-
ditional surrender. The Confederates de-
stroyed all the ships in port, loaded with
cotton, together with a great number Of
steamboats,. The value of the burned
property was 100000.

For the first time, if Kalakaua be ex-
cepted, reigning king is to visit the
United States. King Leopold Of Belgium
Is COulluS over Ill Iue IOy dl yacht AlDdLd.
Among former royal visitors have been
an Emperor, Dom Pedro of Brazil. pre-
tender, Don Carlos of Spain, the Prince
Of Wales, and number of crown princes
and Indian rajahs during the Worlds
Fair. But Leopold will be the first actual,
ife-sized king.
The announcement that the Interstate
Commerce Commission has lowered the
freight rates from Chicago on corn for ex-
port calls attention to the enormous in
crease in the amount of this cereal which
we are yearly sending abroad. In 1880 the
United States exported 9S,OOO,0O0 bush
els, in 1890 it had risen to 1O1 ,973, 900
bushels, in 1897 to 176,916,OOO bushels,
and in 1898 to POS, 745, 900 bushels.

The Chicago papers, which go to press
at 8 o'clock in the morning, often print
dispatches dated at Manila at o'clock
the same morning, and the afternoon pa
pers have, during the war, gotten out ex-
tras describing events which took place
the next morning according to Chicago
time These seeming discrepancies are
explained by the difference of time-1O11s
hours-between the two cities.

Kansas City, Kan, is threatened with a
terrible epidemic of smallpox. More than

the people are panic-stricken. For weeks
the disease has been lurking in the thick

the city. 1t has been of rather mild
form, and the physicians have pronounced
it chickeapox and measles in most in
stances. Smallpox has now spread to ev-

Railroad earnings throughout the coun-
try are larger than they ever we're in
The past. Bank clearances are breaking
all records. So is the production of
iron and steel. In most of the other
important products, too, there are large
gains in output. Another evidence of
the trade expansion is the active de-
mand for money, and the adavnce in
rates. The circulation, also, has in
creased in sympathy with the growth
in general trade. The volume of the
circulating medium at the present time
is the greatest in the history OF the
country.
Moreover, the opinion is general that
the gain in business will be maintain
ed. This is noticed in the steady ad-
vance in the prices of staple commodi-
ties. OF the 107 articles cited in a list
prepared by Bradstreets. f~ifty-eight in
creased in price during 1898, while only
thirty-six decreased, and thirteen
showed but little change n way or the
other. The general tendency, of course,
in most articles will always be toward
a lower level, owing to the cheapening
Of production and the reduction in cost
Of distribution, but the trade expansion
and the general prosperity have been
so marked that this tendency has been
overcome in the past twelve months
and the prices of most of the important
articles have been forced upward. This
is an encouraging exhibit. The genera
trade expansion and prosperity recall
the days in 1879 when. after the begin
ming of the operation of the republican
gold resumption act in that year, this
panic of 1875 was ended and a gen
eral business boom set in. The ex.
pansion, moreover, is apparently more
solid than it was at that time, ant
promises to last longer.-Globe-Demo

Representative A. p. Reader has in
PRODUCED a bill. to require county clerks
to certify stock brands to the board Of
live stock commissioners and that such
board shall keep a record of all brands
used in the state. This is a meritorious
bill. 1t will prevent the conflict of
brands which has heretofore been pos
sible. With a single record it will be
possible to keep everything checked up
and brands which are alike can be
changed. Under the present system it
is possible for several parties to have
the same brand recorded in the differ
emit counties,

FREE TEXT BOOKS.

As foreshadowed in these columns
some days ago, the Hawk free school
book bill is meeting with considerable
opposition. 1t is understood that the
opposing forces are being led by a
Cheyenne attorney who has been m
ployed to handle the case. A meeting
of the Cheyenne school board has been
held and it expresses opposition to the
bill because of thu alleged reason that
IT. don't care to take advantage of its
provisions. If the Cheyenne school
board has a better method of securing
books it should by all be permit
ted to continue it. but the Hawk bill
will not interfere, hence the school
boards action was u OF place. 1t is
probable that the board has not been
influenced by personal knowledge of
the bill. OF course the Tribune would
be in opposition. 1t is making itself a
reputation for being in favor of all bad
legislation and opposing everything
good.
The idea advanced that paupers may
be furnished with free books is vicious,
for the reason that it is sure to create
more or less discord among the chill
dren of the public schools. Even the
Door mans children should not be
tainted with the jeers, MY papa is
able to buy my books. and l don't lave
to have pauper books" Equality be
fore the law is the pride and boast OF
all true Americans, and if the text
books are bought by the various dis
tricts and furnished free to the pupils
there can be no class distinction; all
will be upon exactly the same footing.
There is nothing in Mr.. Hawks bill
that will require uniformity, If the PEG
pie do not desire it, although we believe
there is urgent reason for uniformity
throughout the state.
1t is proposed to amend the bill now
before the legislature by inserting a
provision that the books shall be
bought from the fund received from the
leasing of state school lands. This
fund, which will be divided in the
spring, now amounts to about $50, 900.
Those who oppose the bill should be
called to a close account and the fact
determined whether they have any in
terest in the matter through their re-
lationship with publishing houses.

THE BUSINESS

On all sides the evidences of pros
perity in the United States are striking
ly manifest. Gold importation has
started in heavy volume, although the
movement was not expected to begin
for two or three weeks yet. The activ-
ity on the New York stock exchange
has reached almost the highest figures
eve touched, and the prices for seats
have gone up in a corresponding de-
gree. The latest report of the national
banks shows In those insti-
buttons greater than ever before.

Mr.. McAnally of Carbon county has
introduced a bill which is a cruel blow
to the fsh-story "spotes." After pro-

Of fish caught within the borders of the

CULTIVATION COUNTS.
Small Holdings, Diversity of Crops
and First-Class Products Make
Farmers Wealthy.

For several years prices have, quite
generally, been unremunerative and
production consequently limited, says
writer in the North American Review.
Farmers have refrained from hiring
help and have contented themselves
with what could be produced by the
family. I know of no farm that is
yielding to it's fullest capacity; yet
some are producing more than twice
as much per acre as adjoining farms
equally good. To illustrate: A farm
of 200 acres, 100 of which are improved,
received careful treatment and above
the average condition of farms in the
vicinity, has cash income of from
5000 to $500 yearly as the result of the
work of two men. An adjoining farm
of 40 acres, with the same labor, aver
ages about $500. A river farm of 40
acres, with little more work, gives
about $1,000. Small holdings, diversity
of crops and profitable prices will more
than double our production without
any increase in the area of improved
land. France, with nine times our pop-
ulation to the square mile, produced
over eight bushels of wheat per capita
for the five years ending with 1897.
Our production for the same period was
but little more than seven bushels per
capita.

GARDEN MARKER IN DETAIL.

strip has two bolts with thumb-screws
so it may be fastened anywhere along
the strip, a. The strip, a, has bolt holes
two inches apart, along its entire
length.
The runners may be set to mark rows
as wide as four feet apart, and as mar
row as four inches, and between these
extremes, at any distance in an even
number of inches. The outside run
ners in the illustration are set just
even with the ends of the strip, a. The
rows are then three feet apart. But
each runner may be set at least foot
farther from the center, by means of
the bar shown at f, and still lap enough
to fasten. When the rows are to be
less than 2H feet apart the runners
must change places with each other
put at e's end and at DIS end. Then
the rows may be narrowed down to
four inches.
The advantage of having the center
runner on the tongue is this: By rails
ing and lowering the tongue, as need
ed, all the runners may be made to
touch the ground all the time, even
though the ground is uneven. This
marker is made of light material
throughout, so it is no task to drag it
along with one hand.-Orange Judd

BUTTER-MAKING HINTS,
Every Part of the Operation, from
the Milking to the Packing,
REQUIRES Great Care,

The ability to make good butter is
worth money to the farmers wife in
these days when so much of an inferior
quality is thrust upon the market.
Every part of the work requires care
and cleanliness, from the time the milk
ing is done in the barnyard to the mo-
ment when the golden rolls are deliv-
cred to the city customers. Use only
the best quality of table salt, the
amount required usually being one
ounce to pound of butter. Work it
just enough to take out every particle
of buttermilk, and keep it in cool
place to insure its keeping perfectly
fresh.
A great deal depends upon the care
Of the crooks, cans or pans in which the
milk is Kept. They should be washed
as soon as possible after being used,
and kept clean and free from rust.
Rinse first with cold water, then wash
thoroughly inside and outside with hot
water, in which enough pearline has
been dissolved to make good suds.
Give particular attention to the seams
II you use cans. Finish by rinsing with
scalding water, wipe dry, then set them
right side up in the fresh air and sun
shine and they will be clean and sweet.
1t is an error to turn them upside down
on table, or to hang them in that po-
sition on stake, for hot air or steam
rises and has no way of escape, conse-
quently condenses in the cans and
causes them to sour. A great deal of
milk is tainted in this way. A rusty
can should never be used, as it imparts
foreign flavor to the milk.
II you have running spring of clear,
cold water have little house built over
it, and set your milk cans in the water.
1t is an ideal place for dairy, and it
will cost very little to build the spring
house.-Prairie Farmer.
