Make Admitting Property Pay.

There is bat one possible way to have
good streets In Columbia, and that Is
to make the property along which
they lie pay for them. The CT
eil has the authority OF law 10 ord~r
this done. All they need Is the nerve
to do 1t. Necessarily it will meet With
opposition trenuou and bitter. and IN
some instances will work hardship.
But the public good Is paramount
to private interests. Streets are the
most necessary Improvements in :
community and Dur, are in Il deplor-
able condition.
There Is no money prestn- or pros
pective in the treasury with which to pay
for them. Either the property
must pay for them r we mnst continue
&c sounder in the mud. Some nf me
streets are 10Y impossible in bad wealth
er Some more will be so.
OF course the council should f%xsicies
discretion. There are localities where
it would bankrupt property owuel, to
order down vitrlfed brick streets and
granitoid pavemenls. AS a rule the
abutting property is benefited more
than the street Improvement costs, and
the cost is rarely SO high as to be bur-
densome.
This is the rule followed IN the cities
and the time has arrived for us to apply
1t here. Our town, nor giving prom
Use of unprecedented growth, will
suffer unless 1t is done. Not only will
it have damage suite on its hands, but
property will depreciate, and our
schools will decrease in attendance and

Where Salt is Obtained.

There are two general sources from
which salt is obtained, natural brines
and solid deposits. A number of theor-
les have been advanced to account for
the latter. The general impression
among scientific men is that rock salt
has been formed by evaporation from
ancient seas. which had inclosed in
some way. In confirmation of this
notion 1t is pointed out that deposits
are being made to-day at the bottom
Of several wen-known salt lakes. But
doubts have been expressed as to the
applicability OF the explanation to
such thick strata as those at Stassfurt.
Germany, eighteen hundred feet deep,
and at Spersnberg. near Berlin, thirty
six hundred feet thick. However this
may be. the substance Is found. in
greater O less purity, in all parts OF
the world. The minerals associatefl
with It are those which are apt to

known as salt is principally chloride

Gypsum plaster is largely displacing
lime mortar as a wall finish. Not only
Is it found to be more suitable and
durable, but Its strength and hardness,
and the fact that construction can be
completed more quickly when 1t is
used, have brought 1t into favor. 1t
also has great value as a neutralizer
Of alkai in soils. The belt OF country
extending from Iowa through Kansas
and Oklahoma and into Texas includes
the plants which produce a large part
of the output of gypsum west of the
Mississippi River. The deposits in
these States are practically inexhaustl.
