Inc prices on extra long and extra
large coastwise lumber were raised 81
per thousand feet at the August meet
ing, but these it was found advisable
to raise an additional 81 per thousand
at this meeting. This raise is neces-
sary, owing to difficulty in procuring
timber for these special sizes and
lengths. Prices on all other grades of
lumber remain the same. New price

Quite discussion was had over re-
cent action of railway lines in raising
the minimum weights per carload,
from $4,000 to 10000 pounds.
This arbitrary action of the roads, in
| cases where long timbers must be load
ed and Tapped on two or three cars,
will force the shipper to pay freight

will allow loaded, besides being injury

very indignant at this action, and

is hoped modification of the ruling

Up-to-DRte Methods of Rearing
Babies-Some Rules.


Babies-Some Rules.
(Hutchins Hapgood in Ainsiee,s)
Perhaps few practical suggestions
as to the manner in which babies may
be made New will not be unwsIcome.
The general principal has. it is hoped.
been explained, but for the convenience
of those mothers who are duly impress
sed with the utility of science, and
the wisdom of method. few specific
directions may be laid down. In the
following list no attempt at exhaus
tiveness is made. Particular instances
and particular occasions require mod
ifications of the general method. When
once the mother has given her good
will to the furtherance of the imper-
sonal and unselfish system described
above, she will find IL comparatively
easy to apply it in detail. Let her avoid
extremeness in carrying out her new
ideas. There is never so radical con-
vert as a recent one. Therefore. let her
be moderate and preserve her sense of
humor; although in most cases the
danger will be that the new theory will
not be so thoroughly understood as to
prevent her from sliding back into the
genial, selfish and pernicious ways of
the Old Mother.
LET the badly remain in solitude as
much as possible. 1t is noticeable that
when alone a baby will exercise more
than when he has visitors. He will
either cry, kick. try to talk, investi-
gate himself contemplate nature, and
generally develop himself from within
out. When visitors are with him he is
more suppressed, does not kick so much
nor crow loudly to himself. and does
not so well bring out his soul, his body
and his moral independence.
II.
ut is better for the badly to be sur
rounded with aniGa,ls or inanimate
objects than with IWjple: for then the
impulse toward ASSOCIATION comes from
him. not from them. Sothing is forced
upon him in that cask he can develop
with comparative naturalness. II is
noticeable that the baby gets greater
pleasure from his dumb friends than
from his vociferous relatives who sub
merge him with confusing, irrelevant
babble The inanimate or animal world
is simple, and consequently healthily
conductive to the growth Of a young
child. Even adults do not commune
with solitude and with nature enough.
Much society makes nervous and in
ane.
III.
ITO follow out the last rule do not
rock the baby, either In your arms or
in it's cradle; and do not move II TO
and fro in its carriage. Let IL remain un-
disturbed so that IL can queitly and !
accurately observe. Now and then, TO |
be sure, move the carriage 10 another |

TO BE CONTINC ED.

In BUSINESS For PRoFIT.-John w.
Yerkes, commissioner Of internal rev.
enue, in his testimony, given last
Thursday, in the South Carolina dis
pensary internal revenue tax case, con-
tended that the state of South Carolina
is conducting the liquor traffic for pur-
poses of gain and profit, and should.
therefore, pay the regular internal rev.
enue tax imposed upon the traffic by
act of congress.
This Is the answer Of Mr.. Yerkes to
the brief filed with the court Of claims
by Franklin H. Mackey, attorney for
the state of South Carolina, who claims
that the sale Of spirituous and malt IL
quors in the state of South Carolina Is
carried on by the state solely In exer-
else of its lawful police power, and not
for the purpose of gain and profit.
Mr.. Mackey demands judgment
against the United States for the sum
of $4,000, being the amount Of money
paid by the state Of South Carolina to
the government of the United States
since July l, 1893, and required by the
internal revenue collector of South Car
olina on the ground that the state was
carrying on the business or occupation
of wholesale and retail liquor Dealers

mercial fruits we need and desire we

ventures and heroic efforts"
Senator McLaurin declared the prin-
ciples embraced 'in the Mckinley doc
trine" to be the only ones which prom
ise the stability of the nation and the
full accomplishment Of our national
destiny. He predicted that this doc
trine is to be our chart and compass
until we complete another cycle in ma
tional life and another move to be
made onward and upward"
The speaker spoke of reciprocity
treaties as one of the features Of this
twentieth century Monroe doctrine and
defined their principle to be that trade
Is not to be free on one side and fet-
tered on the other; that goods are not
to be taken from a foreign country
free Of duty, or at low rate, unless
that country takes something from us
free Of duty or at low rate.
What we need in this country to-
day." said the senator, rs a non-parti-
san patriotism and craftsmanship,
more devoted to the building up Of our
common country than to party sue
cess. Great national issues, involving
the glory of our republic and it's tri-
umphant success as a free constitu-
tional government, should not be
dwarfed into sectional and partisan
questions. Let us stand shoulder to
shoulder, good Americans, no matter
what our politics or what our section"
In conclusion Senator McLaurin said:
"All signs indicate that our modern
civilization Is approaching one Of those
momentous crises that occur periodi-
cally in the history Of the human race.
Antagonistic elements Of fearful force
are at work. 1t seems as IL all proph-
ecy pointed to America as the final bat
tie ground between error and truth,

Book tells us shall precede the dawn

competition by water, and from the po'
sition Of opposing the constructing Of
the canal, they are now urging 1t. Az
the owners of steamships, they car
divide the transportation business most
proftably, assigning to the railroads
that which will pay best, and to the
steamships the heavy, bulky, long
hauls.
Mr.. Morgan, when he started to OBJ
tain control of ocean tonnage, went ia
Europe not so much to buy a few
steamships lines as to look into the
Pan-American canal project, with the
object Of buying 1t if it was found a
good investment. Conferences with
President Loubet, Of France and direc-
tors of the canal company convinced
him that the title could not readily be
obtained, and the report Of experts
demonstrated that the canal was not a
good business proposition at the price
set upon it. He therefore abandoned
the idea of working for the construction
of an isthmian canal by the transporta-
ton companies of the country, and with
his colleagues is directing every effort
to facilitate the construction Of a ca
nal by the government.
These magnates will line up In oppo-
sition to the passage Of the subsidy bill
in the form in which 1t was presented
to congress last session. While they
would, as owners of steamships, bene-
fit in a degree from such a passage,
they would rather forego the subsidy
than have it dangling as temptation
for the construction and operation of
rival lines. They do not want the gov
ernment to offer any encouragement to
the shipping interests that might result
in producing competition. They want,
by controlling the freight carried upon
their railroads, to annihilate independ-
ent steamship companies, bankrupt
them and force them out Of business.
BY controlling rates upon the ocean
as we'll as upon land, the great capital
lists can produce satisfactory profits,
and are, therefore, determined to pre-
vent, If they can, the government en-
couraging competition. They are not
opposed, however, to a subsidy to
steamships in any form. They are
willing that it should be offered ships
engaged in the commerce with Latin
America. At present the trade between
the United States and the east coast OF
South America is conducted by way of
Europe, and this triangular course they
wish to have abolished.

The safe in the postoffice at Jonesville
was blown open last night and 5000 in
stamps and cash were taken. The
town marshal had a fight with the
robbers, who escaped. The postofflce Is
in the store of Williams Bros. About
a month ago this store was broken
open and robbed. Night Marshal
Claude Walker was about 20 yards
from the store when he heard an ex-
plosion. He hurried to the store and
found three men whom he tried to ar
rest. After fight with pistols the men
got away, starting in the direction of
Union. Dynamite had been used in
getting the safe open. Three strangers
whose business was not discovered,
were seen about the town yesterday.
