Show h Til ( Ensign; Here is some euriou3 knowledgo ; When the iron plow was first introduced, about a hundred years ;tgo, Sir Robert Peel the first of the name interested himself greatly in getting them ised by hisdenants. After a year or twos use of fho implements, Sir Robert asked his tenants what they thought of them. We ae. all of orAj mind, returned the honest Staffordshire men, that they do make the weeds to grow. This was looked upon at first as a display of dense ignorance and conservatism, but it turned out to he true the iron plows could be run deeper, and thus they brought Up t ) the surface within the influence of light and air millions of weed seeds that would have lain undisturbed lor ages below the reach of the old wooden implements. A complaint that looks at first similarly incon- sequental is now made about selfthat they do binding harvesters The make the weeds to grow. connection between the greatest triumph of modern implement making and the greatest pest of North American farms, is not immediately apparent. Rut vvhtn it is considered that a careful throws out many of the weed stalks while the binding machine bundles up everything that is cut, the genuineness of the complaint is at once seen. The remedy, of course, is not but to to quit using get rid of the weeds, by thorough and frequent use of the cultivator, such or by a real' summer fallow as will not l&ta living blade be seen above ground. hand-hinde- r self-binder- The right of a riparian owner to have the water of a stream flow through or by his land in its nat- ' ural purity aud without appreciable pollution caused by owners above him, U,well settled, is a part of his property, and will be protected by injunction.

As tliemma-Joritof our readers are interested in wool either directly or indirectly we clip jt for their benefit. If you have not disposed of your wool and are able to hold cn to it awhile, don't selj. Indications are that there must be a break in the situation. Sales have been livelier, there is a demand for the raw material, and it is believed by shrewd observers that there will be a much greater activity in the market soon. All fhe talk about the effects of the Mills bill is so much rubbish. The Mills bill cannot become a law during this Congress, and the manufacturers and dealers know it. Speculators have been manipulating the market. Foreign wools lravebeen kept in bond, and the lack, of these for use hS kept back sales of the home product. The situation has become strained and unnatural; A break js bound to come. The Boston Herald says on this question: Mhe stock of Wool has never been lower in manv . years m all the eastern markets than it is today, and .we 'call the attention of those interested in the raw and manufactured article to the evident fact that we are on the eve of a general advance jn the prices 0 the raw- - material. When wool riven have to sell or sillier, of course the goods have to go. But if they are able to hold on a bit, they' may gain considerably by waiting. At any rate they will not be likely to lose much by keeping a sharp look out for advances- y A BIT GF HISTORY. when it was a question when the town would ever be more than a hyperborean Indian trading post, there came along a man named Goodhue, who start ed and edited a weekly newspaper and by almost superhuman talent, pluck and perseverance, wrote Minnesota, and, of course, the village of St. Paul, into life and being. His vivid description of the beauties and advantages ofth'e land were scattered broadcast, and a tide of emigration set in and has continued, until Minnnesota, iier cities, towns, railroads and people are a wojrder. One enthusiastic newspaper writer, backed tip by an enterprising and intelligent people, created that rich and prosperous State. Goodhue is dead and perhaps quite forgotten, but bis labors and their results remain, and will continue for generations. Let Ogden and Salt Lake take notice and profit by the teachings of the past. WASHINGTON (FROM OUR REGULAR LETTER. CORRESPONDENT) Washington, Aug. 17th, iSSS. and Cockrell had quite a spirited controversy over Mr. Shermans resolution calling on the Secretary of the Treasury for a statement showing the amount of Government funds on deposit in national banks on Aug. 1, tSSS.and the securities held therefor. Mr. Cockrell insisted that it should be accompanied by a statement giving the same information for September 30, 1878, when Mr. Sherman was secretary of the Treasury; lie also criticised Mr. Shermans course in puichasing bonds in 1S78. The senate passed the Sherman resolution without amendment. Senator Teller says Congress will not adjourn before the middle of October. The Jarge number of Congressmen absent from the city is being commented on. Both Houses are without a quorum more than half the lime, of late, on view of the mass of important legislation which remains unacted upon, it would seem that the people ojjtiie couutiy have a right to demand that Senators and members should remain in their seats, and transact the business for which they were elected. In this matter both parties are equally guilty. The dein icratic Senatorial caucus has decided not to attempt any obstructive tactics to prevent a vote on the fisheries treaty; which is very sensible action in their part. One of the gravest faults of rules which govern Congressional legislation is that they allow the minority, by filibusteiiug, to defeat the will of the majority. In this country, the majority should always rule. That is what the people elect them for. A bill has been introduced in the I louse,, to give AllS. Slvutulaa pension tf 5,000 a year. As a similar bill was introduced in the Senate last week there will probably be a race to see which House passes the bill first. Senator Shot man does not believe that Congress has the power to legislate on the subject of trusts. In suggesting that Senator Reagan's bill to prohibit trusts be referred to the finance committee, Mr. Sherman said there was no power in congtess to prohibit trusts and combination, to be derived from the power to raise and collect taxes. It was a power which miglft be exercised by each state for itself. Similar laws had been enacted in England and other countries. Indeed, they were in BLickstones Commentaries, denunciations of trusts and monopolies as strong ascould be wiitten in the English language. Whether such laws could he engrafted by national authority on the Statute hook of the United States, uniler its peculiar system of Government; theiAuas some doubt. If it could be done at all, it would have to be done in a taiifio: levemie bill. Senator Shermans remarks have been much discussed and there are many who agree with hi. 11 that it is a'malter for the states to look out lor; but there are others who contend that if Congress had the power to regulate inter-stat- e railroads, it has the power to prohibit trusts. It is an interesting question, and one which deeply concerns c'veiy citizen. Senator Morgan enjoys the distinction of having done more talking on the fisheries treaty than any one of his colleagues He is supposed to be the mouthpiece of tile administration.
