THRIFT.

The following from the Baltimore
sun" is well worth reproducing:
Tue gen raj rule to be followed
ny al who would learn to be thrifty
is to save something, however small
from the pay of each week or month
That means, in the first place, thu
Vholesome principle of living within
pne's income, and in the second
jlace,a gain in capital to be used in
n citing reverses of fortune, or If
th4>e be escaped, in bui ding up a
competence. The habit OF saving,
a vever, is the important outcome
0 thrift. One need not be stinpy
or mean in order to be thrifty, AS
matter of fact, thrifty people live
quite as well as their extravagan'
n-ighbors. The only difference be
tween them is that the thrifty tam
y avoids waste by learning SINAI
economies, while the rxtravagan
tmily develops taste beyond The
means for its qualification.
The thrifty family wants less and
y-ts what it wants, the extrav
rant family is always discontented
There is nothing more important to
he welfare and happiness of the
Door man than habits of thrift, and
they can easily be acquired without
much sacrifice if ones tastes anC
oeeds are to keep expenditures
within the income, whatever that
nav be,

COUNTY MISSIONERS.

The Baltimore sam makes the following
comment upon the election of these i'm
portant officers:
| At the election this fall one or more
each of the twentythrec counties of the
State In no case is an entire board to
be elected but in six counties majority
of the boards will be. These counties are
Alleganv, Cecil, X ent, Washin gton. Wi
comico and Worcester. In Allegany all
the five commissioners are Republicans
and three of them 90 out. In Cecil there
are three commissioners all Democrats,
and two of them go out. In Kent there
are five, four Democrats and a Republi-
can. The Republican and two Democrats
go out. In Washington three Republi-
cans go out, leaving two Democratic hold
overs In Wicomico and Worcester each
there a-e five commissioners, all Demo-
Gratis, and in each the terms of three eX
pire. The election may, of course, change
the political complexion of the boards in
each of these six counties. In Anne
Arundel all three are Democrats and one
goes out. Is Baltimore county the cleo
ton of the new commissioner by the Dem
ocrats will g i've them that county, which
is now Republican. This is also true of
Calvert and Talbot. By electing the new
commissioners the Republicans will get
possession Of Dorchester, and Howard,
Anne Arundel, Carroll, Hartford, Mont.
gomery, Queen Anne, Wicomico and
Worcester will remain Democratic for
two more years, whatever NAY be the re-
suit of the fall election, and Allegany,
Caroline, Charles, Frederick. Garrett,
Prince Georges, Somerset and St. Mary
Will remain Republican.
Under the constitution of 1867 down
to 1891, all the County Commissioners
were elected bennially. But in that year
the Constitution was amended so as to
permit the Legislature to extend the terms
of these officials, not to exceed, however,
six years The idea of the Legislature in
fixing the terms was to so arrange them
that all should not expire at the same
time, leaving always one or more expert
enced members in the board. This sys-
TEN seems to have given satisfaction. The
Office is one of great Importance in the
counties. 1t combines the functions of
Mayor and City Councilman, and is also
the health office The County Commits
sioners levy taxes and disburse all public
funds, making provision for the public
schools and all the various branches of
the local government. They have entire
charge of the public roads and bridges
and it rests with them whether a county
shall be progressive, whether property
shall be enhanced in value by good roads
or whether the citizens shall be mudbound
for good part of each year. The public
patronage in each county, or the best
part of it, is distributed by the commits
sioners, and hence the political impor
tance of the place. The responsibility of
the office is heavy and the pay is light,
not ordinarily exceeding hundred dol
lars year 1t is to be hoped that at the
fall election each patty will be on its
metal to place the best possible candi-
dates in the field. 1t would be appropri-
ate to select progressive men, who favor
good public roads.

CORNSTALK COMBINE.

Our farmers have reason to regard with
aversion our numerous tariff protected
trusts, but the farmers on the prairie lands
of the West at least will probably view
with favor the fifty million-dollar corn
stalk trust which is being organized. it is
stated, to make Il market for the 260G0O
600 tons of cornstalks that 90 to waste
every year. The constalk is to be de-
veloped by the new trusts into Il COM
melcial commodity, as cotton seed were a
few years ago, and it is believed tina.
"there are millions in it According to
the New York Commercial our farmers
have hitherto been throwing away
$900,OO0,0 900 year in stalks. The yield
of stalks averages three tons to the acre,
the acreage averaging S0,O00,0 900, and but
4 faction of this is utilized as fodder
During the last 20 years our farmers have
destroyed, it is estimated by the CONNER
cial, $4,000, 0OO,O worth of their pro-
duct-a value equal to the sum total of
their mortgages plus the public debt This
sum the new trust proposes to enable the
farmers to put in their pockets during the
next score of years.
Six different commodities are now be-
ing manufactured from cornstalkS, name
ly, cellulose, worth $400 a ton, used by
the Government as an automatic hole
stopper for battleships: excellent card
board, fine grade of paper, an unequal
ed foundation for dynamite, a patent cattle
the cellulose lining for warships is well
known. When a leak develops the cellu-
lose swells in such manner as to automa-
tically close it. With Is tons of stalks,
worth 800, one ton of such cellulose is
made, for which, as already stated, the
Government is now paying at the rate of
$400 ton. Two factories, enc in Rock
ford, ILL.,, and another in Owensboro, KY,
are now making cornstalk celluloSe, to-
gether with other products of less value
AS respects the cornstalk cattle food, it is
stated that the stalk when ground to a
coarse meal. cooked, sweetcned with
molasscs and pressed into cakes, form
one of the most nutritive and valuable
foods yet placed on the market. The
absorptive power of the cellulosc dust fits
it admirably for the manufacture of
dynamite by mixing with nitro giyccrine,
such dust being superior even to gun
cotton. Five factories, says the Com
mercial, are to be at once erected, in ad-
dition to those already in operation. The
more the better. 1t is the good fortune
of the proposed combine that it will, if
successful, have for its object to enlarge
or, in fact, create, an industry, not to
Stifle it

The approaching arrival of Captain
Dreyfus at Renncs is causing an influx of
foreigners there. The hotels are bcseiged
with applicants for rooms, which com
mand immense prices. The arrangements
for conveying the prisoners from Brest
have been made with the greatest care and
it is believed that there is no danger of
demonstrations. Drcyfus is expected to
reach Brest early in the morning, and pre-
cautions have been taken to prevent any
body from seeing him either at Brest or
at Rennes The Figaro says it under
stands Dreyfus will arrive at Rennes
June 80, aud that he will be landed else
where than at Brest The courthouse at
Rennes adjoins the prison. Captain
Dreyfus will be taken into court through
specially constituted floor. 1t is pro-
posed to fix a screen in front of the win
dow of his cell as to prevent him from
communicating with the houses opposite
The dossier, or batch of documents in the
case, has already arrived at Rennes and

GENERAL MILES.

A dispatch from Washing ton says Presi-
dent Mckinley is being strongly urged to
send General Miles to Manila. General
Miles offered his services for the Manila
campaign some time ago, but as the Fill
pinos appeared, according to General
Otis's reports, to be on the verge of col
lapse it was not deemed advisable to
make change in the command of the
land forces. Since that time it is evident
tLat General Otis seriously moderated his
Indian fighter, and at tie War Depart
ment it is conceded that it is the only style
of campaign from which any lasting re-
suits are to be expected against the Fill
