The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1901-01-04

United States is now about At 900, 900,
and the total annual wool product in
the union is 241 100000 pounds, or
fraction over five pounds of wool to
each head of sheep. During the year
ending June 80 last, the consumption
100000 pounds, or almost three times
the home product. Governor Otero
finds that an acre of fair grazing land
among the hills and mountain valleys
of New Mexico will support two sheep
each each year, and that there are 3d.
100000 acres of such pasturage. Thus,
New Mexico will be able to maintain
los, 100000 more sheep than she now
has. Governor Murphy, by similar
line of reasoning, finds that there is
ample pasturage for 100000 more
shScp in Arizona.
1t has been closely reckoned that
the cost of the maintenance of flock
worth from $1,000 to $4,000 for one
year is about 81, 400, or thirty cents per
head. This includes pay for shepherds,
food, shearing and incidental expenses.
An average yield of wool per head is
five pounds, and as the present market
price of wool, IA cents a pound each
sheep pays seventy cents year in
fleece, or profit of forty cents head
per year. A flock of 1000 sheep is
therefore reckoned (barring unusual
expenses) to yield some $1,000 profit
| in wool in year. The natural in
crease in lambs in an average flock is
reckoned at about 1900 each year, and
that, too, is a source of large profit
where the pasturage is good for more
sheep. The average number Of losses
during year in flock Of 1000 sheep
is 200, by estray, sickness and attacks
by coyotes and bears.
1t has been closely estimated that
about s24,000,000 is invested in New
Mexican sheep and wool interests,
while in Arizona about s12,00o,000 is
invested. This comprises the value Of
the fiocks, ranges and wool store
houses. The wool industry attracts
many young EngliEhmen Of capital,
and every year the number OF Eng
lishmen In wool-growing increases.
Many Englishmen who are leaders in
sheep-ranching in the southwest are
the younger sons OF some Of the no
bility In England. Lord Salisbury has
two nephews in the locality Of Las
Cruces, N. NJ, who are said to have
each made more than $4,000 in sheep
and wool since the rise in wool under
the operation OF the Dingley tariff law
in 1897. A son OF the late Marquis OF
Butte has been very successful in big
sheep investments among the foothills
near Ration, N. NJ.
The most important wool-grower in
the United States is Marshall e. Fan
ton Of Southern New Mexico. He has
had several ups and downs In the wool
industry. and in 1895. when wool was

.s,etyase plants for Cities.

The disposition of sewage, including
the drainage from all the sources OF
pollution, in large and small cities has
become one Of the most importont
health problems of the age. The most
pressing part of the problem relates
to the deposits of matter in which the
germs of disease may Turk or be in
active form.
Where there is chance for great
drainage system like that of the Chi
cago sanitary channel the problem Is
easily solved The highly diluted sew
age is disinfected by the action OF the
water flow with which in mingles and
1t becomes harmless after short
time Of friction with continent waves
of the current. This fact in science
has been proved by the effects OF the
current in the sanitary channel on the
sewage from Chicago.
But no satisfactory solution has been
offered for a method of disinfecting
the sewage of large and small cities
not connected with the currents OF
considerable running streams. The
question has become very serious in
the populous towns of the lacustrine
regions at the west and at the east.
Some lakeside towns have local popu-
lation Of thousands. Many have sum-
'mer resort hotels, where greater
temporary and uncertain population
than that of the town are accommo-
dated. At these places the sewage is
run into the adjoining lakes. In time
the lakes will become mere cesspools,
breeding bad odors and malarial dis
ease.

Transeontinental railroads ended the
days of the buffaloes. Great swarms of
hunters were carried cut by the rail-
roads across the prairics and plairs
and vast numbers OF the buffalces were
killed out OF sheer wantonness. Next
to the Indian himself the buffalo was
the most picturesque and distsnc:ivs
feature Of the American landscape in
the wilder regions from the earliest
days down TO a comparatively resent
time. but both-the Indian by seelu-
sion in reservations and the buffalo By

GOVERNMENTS
Not Built on Consent
OF Governed
And DR.. MacAyeaI Also Favors
Religious Teaching In Schools.

Describing the necessity of moral
instruction in the public schools, DIR.
Howard S. MacAyeal, pastor of the
First Congregational church, said Sun
day evening that no man could be
complete in the unity of development
unless he had been well trained NOR
ally. MAN is trinity of unity" he
said, 'and 1t is necessary to educate
him in triune world-physically
mentally and morally. 1t Is a sin
against child to stunt his growth In
any of these three elements of life"
I'm n larger sense, DR.. MacAyeal
does not believe that governments are
built absolutely upon consent of the
governed. To substantiate this belief,
he quoted from Pauls Epistle to the
Romans, first verse of the 18th chap
ter, Let every soul be subject unto
the higher powers. For there is no
power but of God; the powers that
are ordained of God" DIR. MacAyeal
said that President Lincoln recognized
that there was no government but oG
God, In the preamble of his call for
a day of prayer, in 1868, "The govern
ment was not built on the consent Of
the governed when millions of slaves
were being sold without their consent;
II IL the same way today, we have
about 10000 criminals shut up with
ont their consent-nnd you big, ,stn!
wart, bearded men are denying your
wives and daughters the right to vote
1t is plain that the government Is not
wholly built on the censent of thu
governed
DR. MacAyeal said that the needs
for a higher class of citizenship were
never SO apparent, and that he knew
OF no better way of providing it than
by teaching morality In the public
schools. mo man is educated" he
said, ''until all his powers are dis
ciplned. TO complete our education
OF the young we must instruct them iu
morality as well as the other branches
and this teaching they Will not obtalr
from the churches. as 1t has been es
timated that onc.third of the schoo
children In the United States hav,
never been inside church. No bet
ter text book can be found for teach
ing morality than the bible. Any
other book In the school might tcn(
toward denomlnntlonalism."

Almost the first impression received
by Mr.. Redmond upon his arrival yes
terday was of the severity of the
American customs laws. His ten pieces
of baggage were searched unmerciful-
ly.
one bag full of private papers was
rummaged to the hearts content of
the inspectors. 1T Is much worse
than ON my previous trip, two years
ago." commented Mr.. Redmond.
Il have come here" explained the
Irish leader, "to tell our countrymer
and sympathizers here of the condition
of affairs in the old country. l want
them to understand just how far the
fight for home rule has gone, and what
are the prospects for success.
England claims that owing to the
decrease in the population of Ireland
and the increase of the population OF
England, our representation in Parlia
ment should be reduced. 1t Is now an
Xious to reduce our representation OF
a basis of population, but it woulC
not give us representation on that
ground when the original agreement
was made. Ireland should now have
200 representatives in Parliament in
stead Of 100. We have little to hope
| for from this Parliament Its hands
are full with the affairs of the Boers
and other matters. England has NJ
time to spare for thought for Ireland
| 1t has other troubles"
