Tlie land has navigable rivers, and
harbors, and coal, and dense forests
of fine timber, and petroleum, and
precious metals, and other minerals;
but suppose it had nothing nt all ex
cept the bare land, and suppose that
it does not bring more than the $.'i
por acre, you might figure what the
profit will be on some million acres.
We Know what land is. Wo can
see it. It is always where we can
examine it. Tho most successful
companies for some years havo been
organized on laud. The whole world
knows what a boom there was in
Southern California last year, and
theinany fortunes that were made.
Nonf of these begin to compare
with' this enterprise, in magnitude,
nor in its possibilities. It comprises
not rijono millions of acres of land
but the opening fornmny industries.

Boston, Mass., special: Inspector
Townsend, of tho postofflco dejwirt
ment, has just completed an inspec
tion of the New England postoftleos.
Suspicion had been aroused at Wash
ington by sudden and Inexplicable
variations of the receipts of certain
oftices. The result of this- investi
gation, it is said, has shown that It
lias been a practice with not a few
of the postmasters to maite false re
turns of their stamp cancellations In
order to get a linger salary out of the
government. It was found iu one
instance that a postmaster had been
reporting to the government that ho
had cancelled $800 worth of stumps
per annum, while his successor did
a business of only ? 100 a year. The
conclusion was irresistible, unless
some palpable facts were presented
to account for the dcllclency that
the old postmaster had been making
false returns to the government. It
is said that there aroabout fifty such
cases in the New England district,
everyone of them backed by evi
dence of the guilt of the accused.
These cases involve ti good many
thousands of dollars in tho aggre
gate, although in a large number of
them the amounts are small. These
oftices, as a rule, are in small places
and have been conducted by all
sorts of people. Some of them have
been women; and rural deacons, who
are regarded as moral bulwarks In
their communities, nro not unknown
In the list.
"The hardest question 1 ever had
to answer," said a gentleman who
had just comedown from the Thous
and Islands, "was put by my little
boy while wo were passing through
a small strip of woods." "Papa," he
shouted, the roaring of the train
making It dlllleult to hear, "aro
there any lions an' tigers an' boars
in these woods ?'l "No," I said.
"Well, If there ain't no lions an' ti
gers an' bears iu woods," ho shrieked
above tho din, "what do they havo
woods for?" Utica Observer.
