COAL IN CHINA.

1t is doubtful if the prospects of rail-
way making in China would be so at
tractive were is not for the rich deposits
of coal possessed by the empire. Coal
is said to- have been found in every pro-
vince; and there are good reasons for
believing that, in the more or less dim
and distant future, China may be the
greatest coal-producing country in the
world. In Shan-si, in the north of Chi
ma, is a continuous field, 1880 miles in
area, of anthracite coal. said to be equal
to the best Pennsylvania, in seams up TO
forty feet and nowhere less than h1teen
feet, in thickness. In the same province
is also a rich bituminous deposit. The
southeastern part of the province of HUI
ann was reported by Richthoten TO the
Shanghai chamber of commerce TO pe
zone great ccal-feld' of M,7OO square
miles in extent Some of the most I'M
portant of the recent railway conces-
sions have reference to coal-felds,
though it may well be stated that some
of the mines are we'll situated for water
carriage. The coal deposits of Szechuen
nave Dt61 lltUuclltiy lNlS'' ~ ~ - 49,
elers and Mrs. Bishop found an enor-
nous coal traffic on the Kialing river.
All the mines Of the interior have been
until now wrked in primitive, slipshod
fashion by the Chinese themselves. AT
Kaiping, however in the province or Pc
chilli the mines have for some time past
been worked under European manage
ment. in connection with railway to
the seaboard; and from the Fangshan-
hsien mines Picking is supplied with coal.
Near to the coal seam of Shan-si are
large deposits of iron ore, which the chi
nese have hitherto smelted by native
methods This primitively conducted
industry is already of great extent, To
what extent it may grow, with railway
and European technical skill,
VINO can say? In several other parts or
China coal and iron ore are found In
close proximity.-C mbers' Journal.

ceptt the advantages the Almighty
has given YOU, and let it be the
means Of your relief? Are you
80 welded to the old idea, are
YOU intent on solving the old
problem Of making 4-cent cotton
b buy everything else with, and
that you can't be persuaded to try
other and less difficult problems?
Have you less intelli renee than
your northern and western BROTH
er? When wheat was down near
the cost OF production lie did not
keep piling up wheat. He raised
corn, rye, barley, oats, hay,
beef cattle and hogs. When his
grain didn't pay to ship TO mar
ket, he put it into beef and pork.
And right here | want our delta
farmers to stick a pin. They
complain that when they raise d
large crop Of corn they can't sell
it. Did they ever try to sell it in
the shape of beef and pork? Try
it, my brothers, and see. Use
your corn, cotton seed meal and
hulls together and you have the
cheapest and best food in the
world. Again, Iwould urge the
hill farmer to keep with his cat
tie. Kill out the herds Of WORTH
less ours and go TO sheep raising,
nothing will pay you a better re-
turn for the amount Of capital
invested. Spring lambs are al
ways in demand at good prices,
the wool is a clear profit, while
the good, wholesome mutton that
one has on his own table is not
the least inducement 10 60 into
sheep raising.
In submitting this address IL is
my purpose TO avoid theories il
possible, but rather to offer a
few practical suggestious that |
know from experience will bring
relief to the cotton grover. |
recognize the fact that every
farmer is a free agent and will bo
largely governed by the condi.
lions and environments that eur
round him, but TRUST many may
give consideration 10 these sug-
gestions. Cotton planting is a
delus.on and a snare. II is largely
q gambling process, like dealing
in futures. No sane man would
spend all Of his recources and
energies in planting cotton II he
could be assured that il would
only oring him accents when
ready fr market. But way
down in his heart he hopes and
bets something wjllhappen 10 the
crop q his neighbor, or there
will be a droutA ir. Texoa, or an
overflow or some other disaster
will oveftake others, and he will
be solid and so does his neigh
bors reason, and all other cotton
planters, and the result is an
Ii 900, 600 bale crop.
In bringing this address to a
close ! appeal to tho good judg-
ment, manhood patriotism and in :
telligence ofour people. On former
occasions, when emergencies
arose our people were always
ready TO meet them. An emer-
gency is upon US now, The cry
goes out; What must | do TO
be sayed?' Tho answer is:
'Plant more food crops, and di-
versify your products"
Hoping for better times in the
near future, | am yours truly,
eico

The matter Of electing a woman
to the Office OF State Librarian is
creating considerable discussion
in Nashville. The American un-
gallantly opposes it, assuming, as
the Commercial Appeal says, that
there is no woman in the state
with the intelligence and ability
to conduct that office" The last
ramed journal cites the fact that
tine superintendent Of education
of Shelby county is woman, and
that the principals Of all the pub
lie schools OF Memphis are wo.
men. Mississippi, in framing her
present constitution, made woman
eligible to this one Office, and her
peculiar fitness for the position is
universally conceded. Georgia.
Kentucky and several other states
have done likewise, and are SO
well satisfied with the experiment,
they are not likely to 60 back 10

offices are "for men only. =

recover decedent's estate by virtue of
his relationship, is in course of develop

the assertion that he, Chickerng. was
confidential counsel for Rulofson obtained
what information they possessed.
Mr.. Chickering denied the assertion
with warmth, and an argument that
threatened to culminate in blows was
being INDUCED in by counsel. When
Judge BeIcher entered the courtroom the
trouble ceased. Eisner got in the last
words in the argument and said that he
would produce three witnesses to prove
his assertion. Judge Belcher then took
the bench and the taking of testimony
was resumed. NJ. Hart and Julius Hart.
