" Thb Pbodi-ctios op Oil is October
The total production of oil in this region
last mouth, was 13 071 bairels, an increase
over the yltld of September ol 400 barrels,
and of 3000 barrels oer October. 18G8.
At Baltimore, the dead body of a man
named TJ.ouiai Flaherty was found in a

his hed alone blnii buried in mud.

Aditioxai, Stock The original "riant"

Boots and Shoes are now on a decline at J.

Winter y. We are reminded of ap
proaching winter now-a-days, the ground
being covered with enow, and the wiutery
winds whistle through the cracks of the
lice board bouses. Let her come.
Another Flowixo Well. It will be
remembered by our readers that Messrs.
Arnold A Phinney put donn a well on the
Mallory Farm some time since, which alter
many (accidents, proved an extraordinary
good one. Trey have put down another
on the same tract, which is now about two
feet in the third sand. Yesterday it com
menced flowing for a short time, sending
out eight barrels of oil when she st oped.
This well Is looated about 150 feet from the
first well put down by them. And boars
very indication of being another equally
profitable well.
At Worcester, Mass., three women ap
peared at the polls last week, and olaimed
the right to vote. A vote was oast in Wor
cester for a state ticked beaded by a woman
and she Mrs. Anna Shaw Greene, the wife
of Col. Greene', and daughter tf tho late
Boliert G. Sh aw, of Boston. Senator Muu
roe, of Ruxbury, who voted against women
suffrage at the last seision, was nearly de.
feated by the vigorous action of woman.
Mia. Lane, of Lynn, the heud of the wo
man's branch of tba labor reform organiza
tion, with two other women, enlisted in
Monroe's district iu Col. Greene's behalf,
and uot only oauvassed it beforebind, but
distributed votes at the polls, one at each
of the three principal voting places.
A Count rr Without Trees.
There is dangei that before many year
have passed the United States will become,
country without trees. And this proba
bility is a danger in the full sense of that
word, tor a treeless country Is the equiva
lent of an arid desert land, in which agrt,
culture is an linposiuility.
Thioughout the Union timber is being
cut in order to supply the enormous demand
without any regard to tire effect of thus de
nuding the country, This is particularly
true of the Atlantic States. As trees dlsap
pear, especially from the beads of the gron
water courses, whence much of our him bet
corner, the rivers league in volume, the annur
ul fall of raia throughout the cleared dis"
trict diminishes., and as a consequence tbe
agricultural product is reduced. Peifertly
accurate atutistics show such results as tbese
in European countries, from large portion
of which the standing wood has been swept
away
In France whole districts have been ren
dered sterile through scarcity of trees. Very
ately in India tbe Government lias fouod it
nacasary to restrain, the clearing of jungle
and in Uajpootana, and in some parts oj
t'-ie couutry forests have been planted nndnr
ts direction. Tbe lessening extent of tim
ber covered country has left the land sub
jeel to long draught", .and when there is
rain, it comes in to form of frusnets, there
beiug no forests to distribute the moisture
Should the destruction of timber In thi'
8
country con iotie with its present rapid,
ty, and do provision bo made for the plant
ing of forests to replace the loej all the State
will probably be corns a rainle.9 region like
Arizona, where orops can be grown only by
the aid of expensive artificial irrigation ol
be soil.
Ttie present consumption or wood in the
United States is enormous. One hun
dred and fifty thousand ucrcsoftke bi si
timber iB cut every year to supply tho de
mand for railway sleepers alo:io. For
ailroad buildings, repairs, aid cars, tbe
annual expenditure in wood is tbirty-eigbt
millions of doling. In a single year tbe
locomotives in tbe Uuited States consume
fifty-six millions of dollars worth of wood.
There are iu tbe whole country more than
tour hundred thousand artisans iu wood; ai:.i
li the value of their labor is oue thousand
dollars a year, tbe wood industry of the
ceuniry represents an amount of nearly five
Dunured millions of dollars per aunum.
It will be seen, therefore, how extensive
are the interests dependent upon the pro
amnion at lumUr. Frottauly tan will inv
eventually to be enacted by the State Leg
islatu res to prevent such d.structien of t ie
forests as willle likely to result in natnra,
Injury to the country; and it in.iy be ncces
Sary to encourage tbe plauting of forests to
meet the demands of tbe future. A man
who plants a forest tree is hardly likely to
live long enough to reap any reward for hi"
labor, and until some encouragement be
given l.y the State, f.-w such trees will ever
bo planted. iU-a are not pitolic sprite d
enough for it. We Relieve that tliere is a
'aw for tbe encouragement of tho nlanlinu
of forest trees in Iowa. There thu r,vrmer
have an incentive in tho n csaity of protect
ing their crops against the high winds which
frequently prevail. They take small cotton
wood trees from the river valleys, and trans
plant them in hedges oa the westora side
their farms and fields, as tbe highest winds
in that region come from tho west.
It is true that in some parts cf the onun
try iunu from which wood bus been cut is
subsequently devoted to its erowtli aaain
But this is only for small trees intended for
n cop-poles, which attain a sufficient growth
in ten or twelve yonrs; and even this custom
is reBrrictea to but few districts Most of
n uicu is ciearea is never again de
voted to timber growing.
The Governor of Iowa will not Gil the
vicancy caused by the resignation of Sona
tor Grims, but will leave the election to
i e Legislature. The Hon. Willian B. Al
lison is indicated as the most likely to be
chojen for tbe short and long term, ne
is pressed by the younger and more active
Republicans of tbe State. Either Gen.
Dodge or the Hon. J. F. Wilson would be
chosen over all others, il they would ruu.
A man who had filed a petition for di
vorce was informed by his counsel that bis
wife bad filed a '-croEE-petiiton," as law
yers call it. "A 'cross' petition!" exclaim
ed her husband, "that's just like her. She
never did a good natur-d thing in her life.'
Important Invention. A- safety car
wheel, which, it is claimed, will prevent
railioad accidents, has recently been exhib
ited in New York. The invention is re
ported us tnusisting of an axle, with two
wheels attached to cither end. These
wheels run on both sides or tho rail, but
they do not touch it except when tho sur
fr oa of the inner wheel rolls on tl.o top of the
fail. The bevel of tbe wheels is such that
a car Ij off the track, the ou-er wheels lore
v h nit en again, since they cunnol 1 -are tin

Cleveland, Nov. 9.
Considerable excitemi nt was created a
mone railroad men here to-dav liv the nres-
ence of Jay Gould and Mellenry and a
numner ot others interested in Erie and
Atlantic & Great Western railroads. Ne
gotiations have been carried on all day,
and although they have been private, yet
enough i is known lo justify the statement
that they hive been of a highly b.dliupr.'nt
character. It is understood that McIIpnry
is here to commence legal proceedings to
o'ifain possession of the Atlantic & Great
Western railway through failure of the Erie
to comply with tho ternje of tho lease, and
hfavy damages are involved It is given
out to night that Gould and his Erie friends
have (ailed to satiny tho English stock
holders to effect a compmmisi with Mc
II. n.-y, and to-day the latter will commence
l'al proeeedin-s. It is assorted that
Gould and Fisk were badly hurt by tho re
cent gold operations, that thev mado war
on Cobin ami ibo administration to conceal
their bankrupt condition, Ihet they failed
to pay the moury duo the Atlantic & Great
Western pimple because they bad not tho
means and now their broad gauge line to
the west is likely to be gobbled up or
destroyed by the McHenry interests.
