Official Taper Sherman County Our Legislature ban adjourned, that ts as far as their pay goes, but they are still after the supreme court ex-governor Holcomb and the fellow they get their salary from. Boss (Jroker says that General Miles is to bo the next democratic candidate for McKinleys position. The unwashed are like a mugot in the “army beef," wiggling in their filth. _ Hon. John Hliortnan who tins been “dead" three times in the last month, is improving In health and is still a living monument of the “crime of ’73." He is a tough old bat from a demopop standpoint.

The longest span of an arch bridge in the world is at Niagara Falls, the one which takes the place of the old suspension which is wrecked. It spans a distance of 6C7.8 ft. The worlds greatest bridges are now be ing built on the arch plan. When the Texas, was first com missioned it took 7 minutes to load and fire her 12 inch guns, but after Lieut. F. J. Haeslcr, completed his improvements, she performed the operation in 1J minutes. The crew presented Mr. Haesler with a gold watch for his successful undertaking. Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria, whose wife was assassinated not long ago, is about to marry again but seems to be haulting between two opinions whither to marry the 111 year old sister of the youDg King of Spain or a Princess of Bulgaria. He is old but a good catch for some half penny Kingdom to tie too. The silver combine has decided to lift the "white man's burden” from Billy Bryan's shoulders and advance the price of silver bullion 10 percent. Bryan's mouth seems to be the fore runner of trusts, and they may yet bring as much joy to the heart of the boy orator as the crime of ’7:t brough him political buncombe. Governor Stephens of Missouri, says; Bryan will be the democratic candidate again in ldoO, and that "anti trust, anti-expansion and free silver will be their platform.' also that "every battle in the Philippines, is making democratic votes.” They should add anti-beef, anti-fat and Cleveland prosperity, to it yet, it bet ter represents the perfidy of theii P»rty. _ Our little squabble in Samoa, in which the cruiser Philadelphia, acting in conjunction with two Brit ish cruisers, bombarded the city of Apia, while the German representa tives sulked, will come out all right like all other jealous difficulties as long as we have men of backbone guiding our ship of state, and the right thing will lie done, as it will be in the Philippines. The great majority of the penplo of this couut ry have heeu murmuring lately in such positive tones that the little American news papers urn uncertain just what to say, and hiujeare curb ing their pent up cuisuiity wailcs till they cau see an openiuy.

The fuel is acurately set forth by the best advised men in the country that this armor cannot he furnished for that money, and Ame rica cannot buy it in Kuropo for less than #515 per ton. The Cramps are now paying $575 per ton for Krupp plate for the vessels they are now building at their yards in this country for Russia. The Krupp pinto is considered -'5 per cent su perior to the Ilarvcyized plate, and If we want the best, as we should have, wo must expect to pay as much as other countries. This armor plate business has grown to such magni tude that our government should huild and operate u plant of the'r own, and make the best, and get it for cost. Private » nlcrprise must have a large profit as their works cost im mense sums and then they run the risk of having to change them to suit new discoveries almost us soon us they are Completed. From the par simonious action of the senate our new war vessels ordered by the late congress cannot be built ns that body placed a provision In the bill that they should not he constructed until their armor plate could he got for lidOO per ton. Our Senate can fix the price they will pay but it can. not force men to furnish the plate for their price. The average annual coal produc tion of the United States from 1871-5 wua 45 million tuna, while from 1801-5 it had increased to 132 mill ion tona. The world* output in 1895 waa 520 million tons, the United States producing about 25 per cent of it, while in 1876 wo produced but 17 percent of the whole. The im mense exportation of Amcricau coal m the last few years ia causing con siderable uneasiness in (Ireat Britain as we are fast gaining a monopoly of the worlds coal trade. “A word to the wise Is sutliclent” and a word from the wise should be sufll eieiit, but you ask. who are the wise?
