EDITORIAL NOTES.
It is certainly refreshing if not
exbilerating to have decisions from
I the U. S. land office that embrace
justice and common sense, instead
of technical quiblings and arbitrary
rulinzs. The Chicago Prairie
Farmer refers to a late decision by
saying that it is glad to know that
Secretary Noble of the Interior
Department at Washington has
enunciated a common sense con
struction in relation to the Timber
Caltu.e Act. The case was that of
John Hair, of Kansas, wherein he
reversed the policy that has pre
vailed in the department for some
years past: On the land claimed
: by Hair under the timber-culture
law it was shown that there were
prior to his entry two cottonwood
trees and four cotton cottonwood
sprouts two inches in diameter.
Heretofore it has been held that
the number of trees on a claim
constitute timber in sufficient
ijuantity to preclude entry under
the law. Secretary Noble says
the intent of congress in the
passage of the act was to encour
age the artifical growth of timber
in a prairie country. It is well
known that in prairie regions a few
scattering trees are found in ravines
and congress certainly did not in
tend to exclude every tract of that
kind from the timber-culture law.
The ruling is not only common
sense, but it will, we think, stand
the test in equity before the
Supreme court of the United
States.
A new line of fine wall-papers with
borders to match bare been opened at

The source of a drug that enters
into the lives of the people as dis
astrously as does opium, is a sub
ject of interest, especially as it is
of such a simple product. Tt is
said that opium is got by cutting
the capsule of .the poppy flower
with a notched iron instrument at
sunrise, and by the next morning
a drop or two of juice has oazed
out. This is scraped off and saved
by the grower, and, after he has a
vessel full of it, it is strained and
dried. It takes a great many
poppies to make a pound of opium,
and it goes through a number of
processes before it is ready for the
market.

It seeuas that the Nicaragua
canal business is not all ease and
without difficulty, for it is said
that the most serious feature of
the Nicaragua Canal project, in a
contracting and financial sense, is
the great rock cut at the eastern
divide, 3 miles long and averaging
120 feet deep by 80 feet wide on
the bottom, containing in all some
7,000,000 cubic yards of material,
or say 440 cubic yards er lineal
foot. There is precedent, says
Engineering News, for such an
enormous cut, and it has been
assumed that foiirj-ears, at least,
would be necessary to complete it,
while many questions the possibil
itv of doing it in that time.
