The "erils of Official al'sentreism'
seem to be worrying the editor Of the
Columbia Record good deal just at
present, While it is Il fact that all
State officers ought to live in Columbia,
we do not believe affairs in the State
house are in quite as bad condition as
the Record would have us believe.
However, we would be glad to have
the Record go more into detail in re-
gard to the ''stri law compelling
State officers to s,.y in Columbia and
devote their time to the business Of the
State, which il would like to have
enacted. 1t strikes us an account Of
some Of its workings. if enforced,
would make interesting reading.

every way possible to anchor the
bridge so securely that it would "stay
put" To prevent the undermining and
washing away of the dirt approaches,
two protecting ''wings" were added at
an angle on the upstream side. These
wings were planked up vertically, and
held in place by two extra cedar posts
and by masses of sod filed in behind.
The planking for the floor was then
spiked into placc-leaving narrow
space between each two planlls for the
purpose Of drainage after rains. In
laying this plank the overlap was all
put on one side. putting down the other
side straight (by line) 50 as to neces-
state the saving off of but one edge.
Saving off IS feet of plank ends is no
fun, as ] can testify, and if we hadn't
laid one edge straight there would have
been SO feet of trimming to do.
Surfaced 2X4's made the railing along
each edge, and, although this railing
may not he absolutely necessary to
farm bridge. it makes it safer and
certainly adds gerat deal to the APP
pearance. The rails and supports are
painted white, and the finished struc-
ture has neat, comfortable" look
which is entirely satisfactory to the
builders.
Tine last thing done was o spike to
the bridge floor on each side, an in
cline-plank to help smooth the ap-
proach. We can't afford to bump fruit
needlessly when hauling it across our
own bridge. This bridge has now
withstood the freshets of two spring
seasons. 1t is still secure and in work
ing gorder.-Walter +. Andrews, in Ohio

To those whose days have been spent
in the enjoyment of the freedom of
the old west, even as it appeared in
the SOS, there comes regret in the
contemplation of the new order of
things. For assuredly the old has
given way to the new, says the Tacoma
Ledger. The old west as the early set
tiers knew it for 20 years or more
has gone as went the Indian and the
buffalo, and with it has gone that larg-
er freedom which were its characteris-
tics and its charm. There i. no longer
any west. The methods and condi-
tions of the west are the methods and
conditions of the east, plus western
energy. Indeed, to be entirely fust.
it may be questioned whether western
push is not an importation, for GER
tainly it did not flourish in the ante
railroad days.

WOMEN FORM FIRE COMPANY.
Men Couldn't Make the Youths Drill,
but Feminine Tact Found
Way

Prominent citizens of Norfolk
Conn.,, have made several ATTEMPTS to
organize fire company for the pro-
lection of their property in the last
year, but every attempt failed. saws
the New York sun. There didn't seem
to be enough civic pride or enough fear
of fire in Norfolk to inspire fire drills,
and it seemed as if it would be left
to anybody and everybody to get out
the garden hose and do the best that
could be done if fire did start.
Then the women took up the mat
ter. They issued a call for young men
desirous of joining military COM
pany. That caught Norfolk's young
men. Fifty of them responded, saws
the New York sun.
After that it was easy. The young
men didn't see just how to get out of
it when, very neatly, the military or
ganization was developed into a fire
force.
The women bought the hose, and
now the town has just as good a fire
department AS its neighbors of equal
size.

EDWARD WIS GIFT TO NATION
Presented Osborne House to England
as Coronation Memorial.

London, Aug. liking Edward has
signaized his coronation in mem.
orable manner by the munificent gift
to the nation of Osborne House, one
Of the tavorite residences of the late
Queen Victoria.
The gift is made in the following
message to his people, addressed to
Prime Minister Balfour. For reasons
apparent in the document itself, his
majesty makes his intention public
buckingham Palace, Coronation
Day, 19O2.-Under the will of the
kings much lamented mother. the Os.
borne House estate is, as Mr.. Balfour
is aware, the private estate of the
sovereign. Having to spend con.
siderable part of the year in the capi.
tai of this kingdom and in its neigh.
borhood, at Windosr, and having also
strong home ties in the county of
Norfolk, which have existed now for
nearly 40 years, the king feels he will
be unable TO make adequate use of
Osborne House as royal residence,
and he, accordingly, has determined
to offer the property in the Isle of
Wight as a gift to the nation. AS
Osborne House is sacred to the mem.
ory of the late queen, it is the kings
wish that, with the exception of those
apartments which were in the per.
sonal occupation of her majesty, his
people shall always have access to
the house, which must ever be asso.
ciated with her beloved name. AS re-
CARDS the rest of the building. the
king hopes it may be devoted to ma
tional purposes and be converted in
to n convalesCent home for officers
of the navy and army whose health
has been impaired in rendering SER
vice to their country.
"Tf. in order to give full legal ef.
feet to the kings wishes, it is found
that application to parliament he
necessary, the king trusts that Mr..
Balfour will see that the necessary
steps are in due course taken"

Angnrn Gonts rs RrnMsers

4 close observer will notice there are
many upland or mountain farms that
have some pieces of pasture too dry
and perhaps too rocky to yield profit.
The past few dry seasons have brought
in bushes, briars and weeds that have
robbed the land of tame grass for the
making of good quality of butter.
Such cheap land pasture is where the
angora goat will thrive best, as they
leefer bushes and briars to grass, and
will thrive and grow fat where sheep
will starve and cows cannot live. An
CORA goats are very prolific, will live
about three times as long as sheep and
their mohair will bring about three
times the price of common wool.-G.
II. Bloodgood, in Farm and Home.
