TEXANS boast of their big farms:
but probably the most wonderful farm
in the world is situated in Canada. Its
popularity lies in the fact that every
thing is worked by electricity. Two
waterfalls within the bounds of the
farm, some 80 feet and 16O feet high,
furnish the motive power, a central
power house being erected near, and
the current is transmitted by wires to
every available place on the farm.
The churns and other necessary imple-
ments have electric motor attachments.
A motor of 10-horse power. works a
moving machine, and another works q
log saw, while the house, barns and
grounds of the farm are illuminated
by the electric light. Water is more
plentiful in Canada than in Texas.

PROJECTIONS TRIUMPH.

George Alfred Townsend, the we'll
known newspaper correspondent, In a
recent letter in the Boston Globe,
quotes q scholar in New York who has
been greattraveler, as saying: 81 re-
gard the doctrine of free trade carried
to q pernicious height as a main cause
of the decline of England. At present
Germany stands clearly out as the fore
most power in Europe, with England
q bad second. And Germany. which
is very scientific nation, deliberately
selected protection instead of free
trade as the principle OF her manufac-
lures and exports. She stimulated
both Der agriculture and trade by put
ting an export bounty On beet sugar.
She built up her metal factories, like
Krupp's, by collision with the
state.''
The scholar quoted is evidently a
keen observer. For some years Eng
land has been losing ground. The
United States and Germany, the two
great protectionist nations, have been
underselling her in the markets of the
world, both in agricultural produ cts
and in manufs ctured articles. BY ex-
tending to their manufacturers the
protection of the home market, the
protective countries have given them
a solid foundation upon which to build,
and have attracted capital and skill in
to manufacturing enterprises to such
an extent that German ana American
products excel in quality as we'll as
undersell in price. The English
manufacturers can no longer play theil
old game of rushing in goods and
selling them below cost until the home
manufacturer is ruined, for the tariff
protects him and still gives him the
home market of his foreign market il
cut off. Thus the British manu-
facturer who attempts to play this
game finds himself ruined before his
American or German competitor is.
There is no doubt that England, i
she is going to retain Der place as the
worlds workshop, or even as one of the
worlds great workshops, will be com
PEELED, sooner or later, to give bel
manufacturers some protection By
adopting the protective principle
Great Britain can no longer force hel
manufactures into foreign port
through til e bulldozing tactics of hel
navy, for the United States and Ger
many are coming to the front as nava
powers, and will demand, and will bs
able to enforce, equal trade privileges
at all ports.
For many years Eng land 1ourishe6
under the free trad policy because o
her unapproschable navy. But hel
dominance as sea power is near it
end. Times have changed and England
will have to change her industrial
policy to meet changed conditions.

BY voting bonds to the amount of

q scheme of improvement which
should serve to make the California
metropolis the most famous in the
world. The scheme is to continue the
park improvements there all the way
from the Golden Gate to the center OF
the city-in other words, there is to be
park the width of an entire city
block from Market street to the Cliff

rs more unique, than can be boasted

HEATH says his order prohibiting

work that way-but is simply for the

Two clerks will work together in the

MATTHEW MARSHALL, tn

MATTHEW MARSHALL, the Sum $
leading financial writer, points out that
the distinctive characteristic of the
late furry is its restriction to the area
of the stock exchanges. Previous
psnics have usually extended over the
whole coup try, for the reason that they
were the results, and not the causes, OF
events which dealings in stocks had
little or no share in bringing on. Blu,
on this occasion the general com
mercisl world seems untouched, and
in Mr.. Marshall's opinion, no alarm
need be felt on its account.

ONE of the counts in the
English Indictment against the Beers
of the Transvaal is that they are of the
seventeenth instead OF the closing year
of the nineteenth century-narrow,
bigoted, lazy. unprogressive, ignorant
and incapable of placing themselves in
line with the onward march of mode m
progress. or the truth of these
chsrges the world has little personal
knowledge, but recent events have de-
monstrated to the satisfaction of every.
body that in the art OF warfare these
sevente eoth century Dutch farmers
have entirely outclassed their British
opponents in the employing Mt of up-to-
date methods.

when it Is known that this Is the only
line running coaches through to Cali

line running tourist sleepers direct
from Ell Psso to Los Angeles and San

THE TWENTIETH CENTURY.

THE HERALD has CLEANED from va
rious sources bits of information con-
corning the next century, which will
commence on January l, 1901. The
fact that almanac makers and COM
pliers of notes on the coming century
unite in declaring that it begins next
year, and not this year, ought to be
sufficient evidence to convince those
persons who believe that the century
began last Monday that they are mis-
taken.
The century will open on Tuesday
and close on Sunday. 1t will have the
greatest number of leap years possible
-twenty-four. The year 1904 will be
the first one, then every fourth year
after that, to and including the year
2OOO February will have five Sundays
three times, in 1920, 1748 and 1876.
In 1901 federal Memorial day, Fourth
of July and Thanksgiving day will
occur the same day in the week.
Then, after that, the same thing will
happen at the following intervals: 6,
IL, IL, 6, IL, IL years and SO. on, or in
1907, 1918, 1929, 1885, and so on.
In the year 1912, 1914, 1869 and 1896
there are four holidays that will fall on
the same day of the week-the three
already mentioned and Washington's
birthday anniversary, as also the 29.h
of February.
Thanksgiving day aud Christmas
will occur on the same day of the week
in 1906 and then at successive intervals
of IL, 6, IL, IL, 6, IL years, and so on;
also in 1928, 1856 and 1884. March 4
will fall on Sunday in the inaugural
years 1917, 1916, and 1913. The same
yearly calendar that was used in 1895
can be used in 1901.
The following are. in order begin
ming with 1901, the oates of Easter'for
the frst.twenty-fve years of the CEN
fury: April II, March 80, April II, 3,

A New Discovery III a Name Recently
Accomplished in This County.

The usual quiet of the assessor
Office was recehtly interrupted by a
shrek which attracted large
crowd of pedestrians and all the
corps of court house employees.
When they entered the assessors
Office, Mr.. Charles Fitzhugh, the
assessors assistant, was found ly-
ing across his table in half dazed
condition with an open book before
him, and the index finger of his
right hand pointing toward a name
on the book. An examination
proved the name to be that of J. T.
observation-disclosures io ersh b n
becker. The shrieks were due to
several frenzied efforts on the part
of the assessor to pronounce the
name. This s the first time the
above mentioned at-length gen tie
man has assessed 10 this county. He
is recent acquisition, and is res
ident of Old River township, school

ONLY A PIPE DREAM.
The "Herrible Murder at Sulphur

Deputy Constable Pleas Culpep-
per returned late Tuesday night
from Sulphur Springs, where be,
together with several other officers,
was called early in the morning to
pursue and If possible, apprehend
negro named Thomas, who, as re-
ported. had murdered negro wo-
man named Carrie Banks.
1t now develops that there was
no murder committed. The report
originated from the girls mother,
who was with be" daughter early
that morning, but was frightened
away by jealous negro man.
The facts regarding the terrible
murder, are about IS follows:
Some few weeks ago Carrie Duncan,
daughter of Joe Duncan, well
known negro planter on the Sui
phur Springs road, married negro
man named Banks, much to the re-
greet of Johp Thompson, negro
farm hand of that vicinity. Banks
was preparing to move his belong
