A Western man thinks the United
States mail boxes should be utilized
for the dissemination of useful infor-
nation, in addition to serving their
ordinary purpose. One of the chief
advantages of the new arrangement is
the letter scale, which hangs at the
left side, with the platform projecting
through the top and the dial and
pointer beneath. 1t is an easy matter
to drop a letter on the scale if the
sender is not quite sure as to its
weight. Then the clock will always
be useful, and should keep fairly ac-
curate time, as it is designed to be
wound and regulated by the mail car
rier on his rounds. The thermometer
will be handy to ascertain the tenn
perature. Information as to postage
rates, money order fees and the hour
of the next collection OF the mail will
also be found on the face of the box,
the hour being automatically changed
at each collection. Then the mail
collector is expected to change the
weather cards from time to time to
accord with the information received
at the main office, and provision is
also made for posting bulletins OF inn
portant events happening throughout
the world.

SUBSIDIES.
st. Louis Republic.

Senator Vest of Missouri was right
in declaring, at the close of his speech
opposing the Hanna ship subsidy bill,
that the measure was certain to pass
the Senate. "Drunk with victory"
said Mr.. Vest, the Republican will
now stop at nothing"
1t will be we'll for the reoplo of this
country to read with the closest at
tention the full report of Senator
Vests speech. Its revelations are
significant to q degree. He shows
that the ship-subsidy bill is the bold
est and most shameless piece of syndi-
cate legislation ever attempted in
Washington. The utter and cor
temptible disregard of the peoples
interests shown in the ruthlessness
with which tits being jammed through
the National Congress against popular
protest is ominous.
Senator Vest clearly points out that
there will be no general benefit to
American shipping from the operation
of this bill. 1t will impose upon the
American people tax burden of $780,
100000 to be paid within the short
period of twenty-five years. OF this
total, $12 100000 will 60 to the Inter.
national Navigation Company, whose
President was appointed by Senator
Frye as Chairman of the Committee
OF Protection of the ship-subsidy bill.
Its next leading beneficiary will be
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company
which will receive $550,O00 year
from the subsidy. Its third bene-
ficiary in Importance will be the
Standard Oil Company-and it is
these monopoly interests that have
prepared and pushed the bill, the
American people having no voice in
the matter from beginning to end.
The Republican party, under the
direction OF Mark Hanna and Mr..
Mckinley, is certainly paying its
debts to the syndicate interests whose
millions brought about Mr.. McKinley's
reelection. 1t is doing this by put
ing its hands in the peoples pockets
and extracting the money necessary
to such payment. A filching OF $780,
100000 at one snatch is going it pretty
steep, however. Will the people be
able to stand this sort of thing for
four wears more?

Influx of Cinnamon,

United States Immigration Com =
missioner David Healy says that
every month hundreds of Chinese walk
across the border between British
Columbia and Washington State with
out any attempt being made to stop
them. Last season a strong system
of guards were posted at various points
along the boundary, but now the
Orientals go back and forth practically
unmolested, so far as the law is con.
cerned. The Chinese cheerfully pay
the Canadian polltax of $50, but 80
per cent. OF them do not stay more
thrn a week, but 60 Immediately to
the other side OF the line, where by
law their entrance is barred. Mr..
Healy says that the number OF Chin
ese who smuggle themselves through
must be enormous, for they have not
increased in Canada at all for FIVE
years, although they arrive from
China at the rate OF fiom 200 to 500
per month. The Commissioner is lay
ing the question before his depart
ment personally, with view to hav-
ing Congress take it up. He suggests
that the Canadian government should
take up the matter with the Ameri-
cans, and endeavor to make q border
line OF defense that the Chinese will
not be able to get over.

A NEWSPAPER PARADISE.
The Business tias Been Profitable to
Nome Not Looked For.

1t seems to be the consensus OF
opinion among men well informed on
Alaskan affairs that the rush to Cane
Nome this Summer will be consider
ably smaller than that OF year ago
P. Conant, OF Nome City, who has
spent three years in newspaper work
there and at Dawson, in speaking OF
this situation, said:
al do not look for the large thrush
to Alaska that some people are proph-
esying this summer. | question
whether the arrivals at Nome will be
more than 1000 to 5000, where last
year there were over $4,000. At one
time last summer there were as many
as GO ocean steamships lying off Nome.
Newspapers are profitable through
out Alaska. Dailies at Cape Nome
and Dawson sell for % cents per copy,
and in each city as many as l,2OO
copies and upward are sold of each
newspaper daily. A weekly pub
lished at Dawson for the miners on
the outlying creeks sells for so cents a
a copy. At Nome the news is neces
sarily all local, but at Dawson daily
telegraph service from Skagway is
maintained. At first the newspaper
rates was cents a word, almost as
much as for cable tolls across the At
lantic, but by vigorous protests the
newspapers have succeeded in getting
this reduced to cents a word. Ad-
vertising is abundant and pays about
$50 per inch month, the transporta-
ton companies and merchants buying
most of the space"

Curative Properties Of Common Salt

Common salt possesses great cura-
tive properties, and it is an excellent
household remedy, and always at
hand.
2. Heated dry, and applied to our
surface, over the seat OF Inflammation
or congestion, it will give almost in
slant relief.
B. Applications of hot solutions Of
salt and water or vinegar will act like
magic upon teeth ache, neuralgia
headache, and other similar diseases.
4. For catarrh and sore throat a
spray of warm water and salt applied
often, will cure almost every case, if
taken in time. For hay fever and
those other slight forms of nasal dis
eases which produce constant sneezing
there is no remedy more quickly ef-
fective and often curative, than the
vapor of heated salt and alcohol. Heat
it very hot, and breathe the vapor for
ten minutes at time, four or five
times day
5. For sensitive and bleeding gums
applying salt and cold water once or
twice a day is Il sure cure.
6. Slight bleeding can be easily
checked by use OF salt and water.
7. Tender feet may be cured in
very short time by daily brisk rubbing
with cold water and salt.
s. A pinch OF salt in hot water
taken just before or just after eating,
greatly aids digestion, and has cured
many cases OF dyspepsia.
.. y cup OF hot water and salt will
sometimes quiet the severest vomiting
when nothing else will.
10. Caution. Salt eaten with the
food in too great quantities is very in
furious. Too much salt dries up the
blood, and gives the skin a yellow
pallor.

Organized Literary Societvl

Friday afternoon in the char;el of
the Seminary West of the Suwannee,
the young gentlemen of that institu-
ton organized the Anaxagorian Lit
erary Society, which is to be a rival
of the PlatOnic Debating Society,
which has been organized for a num-
Der of years.
In all intercollegiate debates of
the above institution one debator will
be selected from each society, and ON
the commencement debate two men,
bers will be selected from the Anax-
agOrian and two members from the
PlatOnlc Debating Society. The
commencement debate will be known
hereafter as the ''champion debate"
between the two societies.
At the meeting of the AnaKagorian
Society Friday the following officers
were elected: President, w. Munroe
Mcintosh; vice-preSident, J. r.
Evans; secretary, Julian Howard;
treasurer, J. w. Edmondson; ser
geant-at-armS, r. 4. Householder;
critic, Asa B. Clark.
The following question is posted
for the next debate of this society at
the Seminary building: "ReSolved,
That the Constitution of the United
States follows the flag" w. B.
Crawford and J. w. Eimondson
will champion the affirmative. while
Asa B. Clark and Julian Howard
will uphold the negative.

gratitude of all for having made it
possible for our small community to
enjoy such a treat. That the public
appreciated the opportunity was evil
denced by the full attendance and the
perfect, not to say rapt, attention ac-
corded the various numbers pre-
sented. Miss Jackson surpassed all
that the press notices had said of her.
She won the hearts of her audience
at once by the sweet mOdesty of her
demeanOr and a personality most
pleasing. During her performance
her audience was entranced, and at
the close she was greeted with
applause, hearty and sincere.
Her program was COM
pliInent to her audience, many of
her selections being works of finished
art by well known composers. These
were so perfectly rendered by Miss
Jackson that the veriest tyro was
conscious of a dawning understand
ing and could not fail to be i'm
pressed by her mastery technique
Her tone was clear and deep, and
her bowling had a freedom and
vigor only acquired by years of close
practice and absorbing love of art.
Mr.. Pratt, who accompanied Miss
Jackson and Miss Elburna on the
piano, was perfect in his role, and
pleased all with his elaborate and
well executed selections. Miss e.
burma was charming and her songs
melodious. Her voice, a clear, bird
like soprano, had a>remarkable range
and timbre, and the perfect ease
with which she managed her most
flexible voice betokened the cultur,
she had enjoyed. The concert wa,

Washington Letter.

Washington, January 26th.-The
Ship Subsidy Bill will pass at this
session or there will be an extra ses-
sion to consider it. There is no
longer any real doubt Of this. The
extra session, however, will not be
called to consider this matter. If it
is found that the Ship Subsidy Bill
cannot pass, one or more apprOpria-
ton bills will probably also be held
up on one pretext or another and
permitted to fail and the extra Ses-
sion will be called to consider them,
thus freeing the President from the
unpleasant task of summoning Con-
gress to give away government mon
ev. If it should be thought better
not to block an appropriation bill,
the extra session will be called to
consider the Cuban Constitution or
| to pass laws for the PHILIPPINES as
soon as the Supreme court shall have
handed down its decision. There
will be plenty of pretexts, and on
whichever one the call is based Con-
gress- will be free to take up the
shipping bill. The eagerness Of the
subsidy hunters to get their job voted
on is discovered to be due to the fact
that its chief beneficiary, the Inter
national Navigation Company, will
get bounty on two vessels, aggre-
eating 24,52O tons, now building, if
the bill is passed before the vessels
are completed, but will not get 50
much if the ships are completed be-
fore the bill is passed. Under the
Act of 1891, Senator Frye states,
this company got annually an extra
sum of $757 900 on four ships, but
