Points and Paragraphs of Things
Pressnt, Past and Future.
Two hundred or more persons were
killed in a mine explosion at Schofield,
Utah, a few days ago. The disaster
was caused from a powder explosion,
and the detai's were heart-rending in
deed. Long has the opinion' prevailed
among certain people, and long has it
been said that ministers' . sons are
oftener worthless than are the sons of
au equal number of other good men.
They are set down among the "ne'er-do-wells."
But some one has come to
the rescie and says that a larger num
ber, in proportion, of eminent scientists
and theologians come from ministers'
sons than from any other class. Also
another says many of our best heross
are the sous of ministers.
American enterprise something is
wonderful. It has been stated recent
ly by good authority that American
capitalists, inventors and constructors
cannot find territory at home sufficient
for their enterprise. Americans are
the greatest of all railroad builders,
says the Atlanta Journal. They have
built at home more railroad lines,
measuring more mileage than all the
rest of the worid combined, and are
now building railroads in other countries
or furnishing material and equipment
for them. England, Bussia, China and
Japan are purchasers of American rails
and locomotives, and so great is the
demand that it is hard to meet it.
There are many examples of bow, by
waiting patiently for the opportunity,
one may in the end reach the goal of
his ambition. John J. Ingalls, writing
for the Saturday Evening Post, tells
how Senator Everetts waited twenty
four years after his Grst candidacy be
fore he was elected Senator.
He was a candidate in 1861,
but failed of election. In 1885 tie
came to the Senate at the age of sixty-seven.
During the interval he was
busy and filled the years with telling
labor. He achieved distinction as a
lawyer and orator. He was Attorney
General of the United States under
President Andrew Johnson and his
counsel on his impeachment. He held
other positions of trust and promi
nence, was Secretary of State from
1877 to 1881 ; and no doubt he kept
his eye on the place he hoped some
day to occupy in the United States
Senate. He "stuck his pegs'" and
worked to them. The example is
well worth the careful study of all
who would learn to succeed by la
boring and waiting. -
With some newspapers it sometimes
oecomes a sort of sterotyped saying
that towns and communities progress
and business thrives onlj as they are
made way for by the live and wide-awake
newspaper. There Is a way
of saying this that nullifies its force
and effect, especially if it is said by a
paper which seems to be "talking
shop" for the home effect. But when
a newspaper says such things about its
contemporaries much removed from it
by distance, the shop talk idea does
not occur to any reader. We have
not seen a clearer instance of this than
in a recent staff correspondence to the
Raleigh News and Observer by Editor
Jofephus Daniels, descriptive of Char
lotte's growth and progress. After
telling of the giant strides the cily of
Charlotte has taken in all directions
during the past twelve years. Mr. Dan
iels says that the city is as beautiful
and prosperous as Its two great news
papers have been sayirg day in and
day out for the past dozen years. Then
he tells a volume of truth in one sin
gle sentence which should be remem
bered by the people of every town and
community In the land which has a
decent newspaper and it should en
courage people to the liberal support
of such papers. The sentence breathes
a trumpet truth in every wad. It is
this : "Charlotte's growth has been
chiefly promoted by its newspapers.'

The Currant as a Crop.
IT IS A NEGLECTED FRUIT.
Philadelphia Record.
The currant is one of the finest fruit
that can be grown, considering the va
rious uses to which it may be applied,
and yet it is the most neglected of all.
Currants are grown only on limited
areas, while the strawberry may be seen
on plantations, some fields containing
over a hundred acres. In favor of the
currant bush it may be claimed that it
thrives almost everywhere, even where
the temperature reaches 30 degrees be
low zero, and it requires no "layering"
to protect the vines, and when once
established it remains for years. It
demands no greater cost for harvesting
the fruit than raspberries, and it is sub
ject to fewer drawbacks than the rasp
berry. It brings four times as much
in market as either the raspberry or
blackberry, because the supply is lim
ited. With more of them in market
the demand would increase, as a large
number of buyers would become edu
cated to their value. There are many
who know but little of currants and
their uses, but there is an excellent op
portunity for those who do not believe
that there is "any money in fruit" to
give the currant their attention as a
crop. Once a plot is in currants there
is little to do for it the greater portion
of the year, and such a crop should pay
much better than some that require
more attention from early spring to
late fall, 'ihe difficulty with those
who grow the fruit is that they obtain
crops so easily, and at such little coat,
that they give it no consideration
Growing along some fence or out-of-the
way location, it is considered only a
"catch crop" that is usually always
sure, but not vjortby of marketing.
The soil best suited for currants is a
deep, rich, mellow loam, but it will
grow almost any where it well manur
ed. The fruit is early on sandy soils,
but the crop rs not so large as on heavy
land. The currant bush is grown from
cuttings, which should be planted this
month, just as the buds begin to push
and placed six inches apart on a shady
border. They should be about one
foot long, of the preceding year's wood
and cut off directly below a joint. Ii
the bushes are to be grown in the man
ner of small trees, with one main stem,
all the eyes should be cut out but the
two top ones. They should remain un.
tif next year, when they will then be
large plants, and may be transplanted
to the location desired. They may be
planted either early in the spring or in
the fall after the leaves begin to drop.
The plants should be six or eight feet
apart each way, so as to allow for cul
tivation. They will become thicker in
time. Or they may be placed in rows
six to eight feet apart in each row, but
when so planted they can be cultivated
but one way with a hoe after they are
large. The soil must be kept loose and
weeds and grass must not be allowed to.
grow among the bushes. The red vari
eties are preferted, and selection for a
novice should be made by some seeds
man or horticulturist, as the soil for
some v art ties may not be as suitable
as for others. If preferred, those who
desire to save time may put out currants
in April without the necessity of begin
ning with cuttings, as nurserymen will
supply them by the hundred at moder
ate prices. Any variety procured may
then be propagated by cuttings after
the plants are established and well
grown. -
There are but few obstacles with cur
rants compared with some small fruits.
The borer does not damage, but vigor
ous bushes escape to a certain extent,
while the borer may be bept in check
by judicious pruning and burning of
the non- producing . old wood, which
should be removed. There is also some
danger from breakage of ihe bushes
when they are heayily overloaded with
fruit, which often occurs, as the cur.
raut worm feeds upon the leaves, but
is easily destroyed with helebcre. The
green leaf hopper also does damage and
is kept in check with pyrethrum or to
bacso dust. The lour-striped plant bug
is also an enemy, but succumbs to kero
sene emulsion. These enemies may not
appear as if tqere are no careless neigh
boring growers, and they entail-no
more labor than would be required for
other fruits that do not bring such
prices in market as currents. It may
be added that at the present day grow-

ere must do vigorous battle with insects
and diseasea in growing anything anC
the currant is not completely exempt.
One of the main points to observe is to
give the bushes severe . pruning. The
currant bears lruit upon the wood of
previous years' growth and upon the
spurs that spring from the older shoots
but it is only upon the young and vig
orous wood of the preceding year that
fruit of superior size is produced.
Branches will sl.net up thick, but will
be weak if suffered to gro w in bunches
instead of on one main stem (like a
tree) ; hence the superfluous branches
should be cut out, which may be done
in the fall or early in the year. The
object should be to have young and
Vigorous wood, and old wood not prov
ing productive to be removed. Currants
should not be overlooked as a crop, for
they are profitable, but only when giv
en excellent attention, which, as a rule,
they do net receive.
The Evolution of Tezes.
National Magazine.
The Louisiana purchase of 1804 un
doubtedly transferred to the United
States all the territory now embraced
in the State of Texas, and a large por
tion of what is now Arizona and New
Mexico. Whatever rights of domain
were thus acquired, however, were
transferred to Spain in 1819, in return
for the Floridas, which was consum
mated and ratified by the King of
Spain in 1821. Passing into the hands
of the Mexicans shortly after, through
the reyolutionary establishment of the
republic of Mexico, it remained polit
ically a territory annexed for the pur
poses of government to ; the ancient
province of Coabuila.
At this time Texas, despite its enor
mous -extent of territory and great
natural advantages, was of little real
value to the Mexican republic. All
along the real limit of Mexican rule,
the Rio Grand del Norte, the Indian
bravos, the fierce Li pans, Kiowas and
Comanches, held in check that wave
of civilization which should hsve
steadily swept northward to the Sabine
river, and indeed seemed likely in
time to depopulate and lay waste the
frontier provinces of the descendants
and successors of the Spanish conquista
dores. Against this savage inundation of
the wild horse of the desert, the Indian
serf and white peon could nd would
do little or nothing, and the royal
viceroys and the earlier presidents of
Mexico were unable to make head
against their constant incursions. It
was no wonder, therefore, that in the
second and third decades of the nine
teenth century they welcomed the
coming of emigrants from the slave
holding States of the American re
public, who could and would invade
the haunts of their enemies, and as
they fondly hoped, buttress with the
American rifle the new frontiers of the
land of Anaabuac.
To Save the Birds.
Civilization moves on. Governor
Roosevest has signed the bill passed by
the New York Legislature making it a
misdemeanor to sell or possess for sale
the plumage of wild birds and song
sters. At the outstart this statute will
bear with some hardship upon mil
liners ; but there is no progress with
out some cost. The women who wear
the plumage of songbirds fn their hats
are not only accessory to the savagery
of the killing, but they are guilty of
the further sivngery of a form of
adornment which la a weak imitation
of the get-up of Geronimo or Sitting
Bull when on the warpath. The at
tempt at restraint in New -York is
wholesome and should be followed up

ISM IN UTAH.
Extract From a Letter of a Resident
of That State.
POLYGAMY IS BEING PUSHED.
Selected. v
The following excerpt from a letter
received from a resident of Utah, un
der date of February 27, 1900 :
"You ask about B. H. Roberts. He
is one ot the high officials of the Mor- j
mon Church, a three-ply polygamist.
"Seeing the country immersed in war
problems, the Mormon heirarcby prob
ably considered it a good time to crowd
him to Congress. He . had been cast
aside by the Democrats, and punished
by the church once ior entering poli
tics without their sanction, but he re
canted and was supposed to be devot
ing his days to churchly requirements.
"Since statehood has been granted,
polygamy has been pushed, on the
quiet, more than ever ; marriages are
secret, so there is no proof of that ; but
the crying fruit of such marriages can
not be entirely concealed, and the
State is being filled with illegitimate
children. It is next to impossible to
convict a man when public sentiment
condones end court officials and jury
may be in the same boat. However,
the Presbytery at Manti two j-ears
ago sounded the alarm with unspeak
able distinctness, 'The Church denied
in toto.' By means of their own they
secured the nomination of B. H. Rob
erts for Congress, in spite of the pro
tests of many Gentile Democrats, and
defied the country. 'Democrats elect
ed him.' He had a large majority of
votes.
"The Mormons hold absolute con
trol of their votes, male and female.
The Republican whom they set up
was said, to be r- 'Danito', or blood
avenger, an official of their organizaH
tion. There were Democrats end some
Republican Gentiles who voted ior
Roberts, so as to bring the matter
to Washington ior settlement out of
the question to do anything effectual
here.
"Well, the country ..has partially set
tled it ; there had not been so effective
a blow given to Mormonism, as it dis
criminated between Church and State.
Polygamy is one ot the fundamental
limits in tbeirparody of religion.
"Now, what is farther needed is a
Federal law on the matter, a constitu
tional amendment prohibiting polyg
amy. Poiygamists are not only of
Utah, but Idaho, Montana, Wyoming,
Colorado and the Territories are now
in a condition where polygamist Mor
mons have about the balance of
power, and it is through these States
that they intend to dominate the na
tion. "Peaceable living in Utah would be
out of tb 3 question had Roberts been
seated ; they had grown so insolent
that it was easier to detect their
schemes. Of all the travesties on re
ligion, Mormonism is the most intri
cate. Every 'good' Mormon is a be
liever in polygamy, whether practic
ing it or not. They are perfectly or
ganized ; they are as one man in the
obedier.ee demanded, from apostle
to each 16-year-old boy to 'obey coun
sel.' Woman is thus far a slave to
minister to man's desire, more or less

DANCER IX TBB EARTH AND AIK; DANGER EVERYWHERE.'
A Wise and Venerable Doctor Talks about Advanced Science.
In a leading hotel, in a great city, a famous and aged physician was conver.
ing. Listening to his wise and sententious discourse, were a group of well
dressed men, evidently lawyers, business men and commercial travelers.
My firm belief, is " that medical science is certain yet to show that all dis
eases without exception are caused 'by invisible germs which are living organ
isms. Here is the germ of that terrible disease diphtheria. Here is the bacillus
of typhoid fever; and here is the still more dreadful bacillus of tubercle which
causes that most destructive of all diseases, consumption. This of that very
common and supposed incurable disease, catarrh."
"I wish, Doctor," said the traveling man, "that you would tell us about
catarrh. I have had it for years, and I am thoroughly discouraged.7
The Doctor answered. "Catarrh, like diphtheria, consumption, typhoid
fever, and a host of other diseases, is the result of a microbe invading the blood
and attacking specially the mucous membrane. This foul and most disgusting
disease is especially prevalent in the United States and it is rare to meet one
who is not, or has not been troubled more or less with it. How often is he or
she obliged to remain at home from pleasant entertainments, deprive themselves
of many intellectual treats, from fear of the disagreeable odor arising from ca
tarrhal affections. In its worst phase, the patient becomes loathsome both to
himself and his friends. ,
" I believe," continued this great physician, " that the true way to heal ca
tarrh is to medicate the blood. This can be done only by powerful alteratives
which act as blood purifiers."
Betsy A Marett, of Manistee, Manistee Co., Mich., writes:
Dear Sirs : For ten years I was a sufferer from general debility and chronic
catarrh. My face was pale as death. I was weak and short of breath. I could
hardly walk, I was so dizzy and nad a ringing in my head all the time. My
hands and feet were always cold. My appetite was very poor. On getting up
in the morning, my head swam so I was often obliged to lie down again. I had
awful pains in the small of my back. 1 had a continual feeling of tiredneas.
My muscular power was almost entirely gone, and I couldn't go half a dozen
steps without stopping to rest, and often that much exercise caused me to have
a pain in my side. It seemed as though the blood had left my veins. The doc
tors said my blood had all turned to water. I had given up all hope of ever get
ting welL I tried the best physicians in the state, but failed to qct any relief.
My husband got me a bottle of Johnston's Sarsaparilla. I took it, and then I
bought another. When these had been used, I was somewhat improved in
health. I continued its use, and felt I was growing stronger; my sleep was re
freshing, and it seemed as if I could feel new blood moving through my veins. I
kept on taking it, and now consider myself a well and rugged woman. I work
all the time, and am happy. I am positive that the Sarsaparilla saved my life.
The sick headaches I have had sines childhood, have disappeared, and my ca
tarrh has almost entirely left me. I cannot be too thankful for what Johnston s
Sarsaparilla has doue for roe. I recommend all women who have sick head
aches to use vour Sarsaparilla.

gilded and roseate .-s may be the
claims. They claim to believe that
unless a woman has given birth to a
child, or can lay claim to the fractional
part of a husband to advocate her ex
altation, no further bliss for her. Ev
ery man is as God to his wives ; he is
their God. The president of the
church receives commands from the
Almighty direct by spoken words.
Really, they claim a god of their own,
using the name of the 'Gentile God'
where it can further their schemes.
"That when you have been here
a short time you think you can solve
the Mormon problem, but after years
of residence you are each day farther
from its solution,' is a fact apparent to
any one who has had any real knowl
edge of the Mormons.
"We smile or shudder at the pub
lished statement?, of some who have
been 'wined and dined' by church
officials, who 'have received every
courtesy' from them. If they stay
long enough they find out. Lying or
evasion becomes a fine art ; that was
Brigham Young's boast - untruth to
a Gentile Is not considered in relation
to tact. I would hesitate to believe
a Mormon on oath where church mat
ters are 'involved.' II he is 'instruct
ed' he may say anything, the respon
sibillty lies with his instructor he
has simply 'obeyed counsel.'
"This refusal to admit Roberts to
Congress is the first effectual 'halt they
have heard, and it was made possible
by the heroic work and continual ut
terances of the Salt Lake Tribune and
other Gentile press; bjr the work o'
the Industrial Home, and by the learn
ing of Gentile sentiment. There should
follow a constitutional amendment,
disfranchising poiygamists. This can
avert inevitable conclusions that must
bft tried at no distant day.
"This does not imply the Josepbites,
a branch of the Mormon Church, who
repudiate polygamy, or those younger
Mormons imbued with American
ideas the 'seven thousand who have
net bovyed the knee to Bjal."
