noticeably strange that they should le id the outcry aga nst the authors of a policy so helpul to their countrymen and crown with their favor those who would snatch from them a substant al sh ire of the trede with other lands already inadequate to their necessi ties There is no disposition among any of our people to promote prihibitcv or retaliatoiy legislation Our policies are ado tci not to the hurt of others but to secure for ourselves those ad vantages that fairly grow out of our favored position as a nation Our form of government With its incident of unive sal suffrage makes It imperiive that we shil save ourworking people from the agrat on- - and disiresses which scant work ani waves that haie no margin for t after all this is done comfort alw it will be found that our m lrkets are open to y commercial exchanges of enormous value to the other great powers t m into office the From the time o duty of using every piwer mi Influence given by law tot Executive department for the development of larger markets for our products illy our farm products has been kept constantly in mind and no effort has been or will b spared to promote that end We are under no disadvantage in any foreign market except that we pay our workmen better wages than are paid elsewhere better abstractly better relatively to the cost of the necessaries of life I do not doubt that a very largly increased for eign trade is accessible to us without bart rng either our home mirket for such products of the farm and shop as our own people oan suppiy or the wages o our working people In many cf the products of wood and iron and in meats and breadstuffs we have advantages that only need belt r facilities of intercourse and transportation to secure for them large forego markets The reciprocity clause Jof the tariff act wisely and effectively opens the way to seeure a large reciprocal trade tn exchange for the free admission to our ports of certain products Tho right of independent nations to make special reciprocal trade concessions is well established and does not impair either the comity due to otbor powers or what is known as ths favored nation clause so gen eral y found in commercial treat es What is given to one for an a lequ its a r ed considera tion can not be claimed by another freely Tne state of the revenues was snch that we could dispense with any import duties upon coffee tea hides and the lower grades of sugar and molasses That the large advantage resulting to the countries producing and export ing those articles by placing them on the free list entitled us to expect a fair return in the way of customs concessions upon articles ex ported by us to them was so obvious that to have gratuitously abandoned this opportunity to enlarge our trade would have been an unpardonable error There were but two methods of maintaining control of this question open to Congress To upon all of these he filacesubject to suchartl les agreement dutiable treaty ss could be secured or to pace them al presently upon the free list but subject to the reim position of soecifted dutiei if the countries from which ws received them should refuse to give to us suitable reciprocal benefits This latter method I think possesses great advantages It expresses la advance the consent of Congress to reciprocity arrangements affecting these products which must otherwise hare been de la ed snd unascertained until each treaty was ratified by the Senate and the necessary legislation enacted by Congress Experience has shewn that some treaties looking to reciprocal trade have failed to secure a two thirds vote In the Senate for ratification and others having passed that stage have for years awaited the concurrence of the House and Senate in such modifications of our revenue laws as were necessary to jrlrs effect to their provisions We cow have the concurrence of both Houses in advance In a distinct and ie ofTer of free entry to our ports The Executive is not of specific articles required to deal la conjecture ai to Indeed his re what Congress will accept ciproclty provision is more than an offer Our part of the bargal n is com letr de lvery has been made and when the countries from which we receive sugar coffee tea and hides have placed on their free lists such ot our products as shall be agreed upon as an equivalent for our concession a proclamation of

all the work that has upon them by this Congress Is been done lost The proper consideration of thesit of an apportionment bill and of the annual appropriation bills will requre not only that no working day of the session shall be lost but that measures of minor and local Interest shall not be allowed to interrupt or retard the progress of those that are of universal Interest In view of these conditions I refrain from bringing before you ut this time some suggestions that would otherwise be made and most earnestly invoke your attention to the duty ot perfecting the Imp riant legislation now well ed To some ot thsse measures which seem to ma the most Important I now briefly call your attention I desire to rep oat with added urgency the recommendations contained in my last annual message tn relation to the development of Ths reciprocity American steamship lines clause of the tariff bill will be largely limited and its b unfits retarded and diminished if provision is not cotiterrporaneously made to rage the establishment of first class tr ports and steam oommunicr s may inset our the ports of sue exovertures for enlarged commercal changee The steamship carrying the

such cargest as are Mt urgent or ¬ tralo Derlshaoie and Indirectly at loist promotes that important adjunct of commerce There is hdw both in this country and ia the nations of Central and South America a state of expectation and confidence as to Increase I trade that will give a double value to your proinpt action upon this question The present situation of our mail communication with Australia illustrates the Importance of early action by Cm lamas The Oceanic Steamship Company maintains a line of steam ers between Saa Francisco Sydney and Auckland consisting of three vessels two of which are of United States registry and one of foreign registry For the service done by this line In carrying tho malls we pay annually the sum of ttriOOJ being as estimat d the full sea and United States inland postage which is the limit fixed by law The colonies of New South Wales and New Zealand have been pailag an nually to these linos JKr7000 for carrying the mat s from Sydney and Auckland to San i ran Cisco The contract under whch this payment has been made is now about to expire and thoso colonies have refus d to renew tne con tract unless the United States shall pay a more equitable proportion of th whole sum necessary to maintain the erviee I am advised by the Postmaster General that the United Sales receives for carrying the Australian mails brought to San Francisco n these steamers by rail to Vancouver an estimated annual Income of K Kv whi e a- - I have stated we are paying out for the support of the steamship line that brings this moil to us only f 5XX leaving an annual surplus resulting from this service of 139090 The trade of the United States with Austra lia wh ch is In a considerable part carried by those sto iin rs and ihe whole of which Is practically dependent upon the mall co nmnn lcatton which th y m i main is largely in our favor Our total expirts of rn r hrniise to Australasian ports luring tho tisc ii year ending June 30 lKao were lltSMS4 whle the total imports of mer h indise from these ports were only 477f76 If we are not w lag to see this important steamsh p line withdrawn or continued with Vancouver substtuted for San Fraa Cisco as the Am- rcan terminal Congre s soon d put it in the power of the Postmaster General to make a liberal increase In the amount now paid for the traasportation of this important mail The South Atlantic and G ilf ports occupy a very favored position towards the new and important comm re v hieh the re rot itv cause of the tar ft art and toe fostal Sh p Ing b are ed to promote Steamship lines from th s ports to some north rn port of South America will amost certainly end a connection between t ie r ii road systems o the continents long before any continuous Hue of rail roads can he pot in operation The verv large approprati n made at tin i ist session for the harbor of liiveston was ju tlfie i as it seemed to m by those eoasideraUous The great Sorthwe t will feel th- - advantage of trunk Ines to tne south as well as to the east and of the new markets opened for their surplus food iroducts and tor many ot their manufactured products I had occasion in May last to transmit to Congress a report adopted by the International Mnercan Conference upon the subject of the ncorporation of an International American Bank with a view to facilitating money exchanges between the States represented In that xmft rence Such an Institution would greatly promote the trade we are seeking to develop I renew the recommendation that a careful and well guardel ihartor be grunted I do not think the powers granted should Include those ordl rily exercised by trust guar nty or safe deposit companies or that more branches in the In ted States should be auihirlzcd than are str c ly necessary to accomplish the object primarily In view namely convenient form of exchanges It Is quite Important that prompt action should be taken in this matter in order that any appropriations for better communication with these countries and any ageements that may be made for reciprocal trade may not be hindered by the inconvenience of making exchanges through Kuropean money centers or burdened by the tribute whioh is an incident of that method of business The bill for the relet of the Supreme Court has after many years of discussion reached a position where final action is easi y attain he and it Is hoped that any difference of o may be so harmonized as to save the ess features of this very important measure Ia this connection I earnestly renew my r mendation that the salaries of the judges of the United States District Courts be so readjusted that none of thum shall receive less than 15000 per annum The enactment of a national bankrupt law I still regard as very desirable The Constitution having given to Congress jurisdiction of this subject It should be exercised and uniform rules provided for the administration of the affairs of Insolvent debtors The inconveniences resulting from the occasional and temporary exercise of this power by Congress and from the conflicting State codes of insolvency which come Into force immediately should be removed by the enactment of a simple Inexpensive and permanent national bankrupt law The use of the telegraph by the Postofflee Fe partment as a means for the rapid transmission of written comnr nieatious is I behave ujion proper terms qu te desirable The Governm mt does not own and operate the railroads and it should not I th nk own or operate tha telegraph lines It does however seem to be quite practicable for the Government to contract with the telegraph companies as it does with the railroad companies to carry at specified rates such communication as the senders may designate for this method of transmission I recommend that such legislation be enacted as will enable the Post office Department fairly to test by expe iment the advantages of such a use of the teegraph nNEST ELECTIONS If any intelligent and loyal company of American eitlzens were requlrtd to cata anal the essential humanconrtitioas of national life I do not doubt that with absolute unanimity they would begin with free and honest elecAnd it is gratifying to know that gentions erally there is a growing and non partisan do mand for better elei tion laws Hut against th s sign of hope ani progress may be set the depressing and undeniable fact that election lass and methods are cunningly contrived to secure mlncrity control while vtolenoe completes the shor comings of fraud Din my last annu i message I suggested that the development of the existing law providing a Federal supervision of I onrression il elections offered an effective m it ioJ of reforming these abuses The need of su h a law has manifested Itself in many parts of the country and its wholcsomo restrants and penalties will be useful In alL The constitutionality of such legislation has been affirmed by the Supreme Court Its probable effectiveness is evidenced by the character of the opposition that is made to it It has been denounced as if it were a new exercise of Federal power and an Invasion of the rK his of the States Noth ing could be further from the truth Congress has already fixed the time for the election of members of Congress It has declared that votes for members of Congress must be by written or printed ballots It has provided for the appointment by Circuit Courts in certain cases and upon the petition of s certain number of citizens of election supervisors and made It their duty to supervise the registration of voters as conducted by the Stato officers to challenge persons offerinr to register to personally inspect and scrutinize the registry lists and to affix their names to the lists for tho purpose of identification and the prevention ot frauds to attend the elections and remain with the boxes till the votes are al cast and counted to attach to the registry lists and election returns any statement touching the accuracy and fairness ot the registry and election and to take and transmit to the clerk of the House of Representatives any evidence of fraudulent practices which may bo presented to them The same law provides for the appointment of deputy United States marshals to attend to the polls support the supervisors In the discharge of their duties and to arrest persons violating the election laws The provisions of this familiar title of the Revised Statutes have been put into exercise by both the great political pur ties and in the North as well as In the South by the filing with th6 ceurt of the petitions required by law It is not therefore a question whether we shall have a Federal election law for we now have one and have had for nearly twenty years but whether we shall have an effective law The present law stops Just short of effectiveness for It surrenders to the local authorities all control over the certification which establishes the prima facie right to a seat in the House ot This defect should be cured Representatives Equality ot representation and the purity of tne elections must oe maintamea or every thing that is valuable in our system of government is lost The qualifications of an elector must be sought in the law not in the opinions prejudices or fears of any class however powerful The path of the elector to the ballot box must be tree from the ambush of fear and the temptations of fraud the count so true and open that none shall gainsay It-- Such a law should be absolutely nonpartisan and Unpar- tlal It should give the advantage to honesty Surely control to majorities and the there is nothing sectional about this happen and It It shall oreed that the penalties of laws intended to ea- force these rights fall here and not there It Is not because the law is sectional but because happily crime Is located not universal Nor should It be forgotten that every law wheh r relating to elections or to any other subject whether enacted by the State or by the nation has force behind it The courts the marshal or instable the posse comttatua the prison are all and always behind the law One can not be justly charged with unfriend liness to any section or class who seeks only to restrain violations ot law and personal right No community will find lawlessness profitable No community can afford to have it known that the officers who are charged with the prcserva tion of the public peace and the restraint of the criminal classes are themselves the pioJ uet of fraud cr violence The magistrate Is then without respect and the law without sanction The floods of lawlessness can not be leveled and mads to run in one channel The killing of a United States marshal carrying a writ of arrest for an election offense is full of prompting and suggestion to men who are pur sued by a city marshal for a crime against lite or property But it is said that this legislation will revive race animosities and some have even suggested 11 ¬ ¬ ¬ that JJMj 1 C150r7 PERKINS GLOVES -

ison can 1h- p resented no single analysis of a soil from which an idea can Ik- - formed of the soil of the whole county for the soil of a lix ality depends either upon the kind of rock that underlies it or upon materia that has been transported by water from some other locality In some parts of the county the surface rocks are fossiliferous limestone black shale or sandstone while in other parts still thev are conglomer ates By disintegration each has produced a different soil different both in physical condition and chemical composition Then again soils of transportation art found in the county lMn examination of the geological Beep of Madison County it will be found that nearly all of the surface rocks west of the K C Railroad line belong to the Lower Silurian age which in this section of the country indicates that they are all limestones and here the greater portion is blue fossiliferous limestone and a small jHirtiou of magnesian limestone and the soils are uniformly rich East of the K C Railroad line the map indicates quite a diversity of geological formation and in consequence quite a diversity of surf- ¬ ace rock and soils Here are found the p rest soils in the county but none so poor that they cannot lie made valuable at a small expense by the judicious use of fertilizers Before going further with the subject it will uot be out of place to say a few words on soils in general A good soil depeiuls not only upon its chemical constituents but also upon its physical condition which is determined by the amount of sand clay and organic matter or humus which it contains If it contains too much sand it is a light soil easy of cultivation but tending constant- ¬ ly to sterility on account of the ease with which it allows water saturated with sol- ¬ uble plant food to pass through and out of it If it contains too much clay it is a heavy soil very tenacious difficult to work and cold but capable of holding If it contains moisture and fertilizers too much humus it is peaty and if not properly drained will be soggy such a soil is usually deficient in some essential mineral constituent A soil with the proper physical condi- ¬ tions will be one whose condition equally removed from too great compactness and too great permeability fits it to absorb and retain the due amount of moisture while giving easy exit to anv overplus to jK rmit the ready access of air and to absorb and utilize the warmth proper to its location By the comparison of many analyses it is found that a soil to meet these condi tions must contain from 60 to So percent of sand from 10 to 30 per cent of clay and from 5 to 10 jiercent of humus Now every soil of Madison County that has been analyzed shows the projier propor ¬ tions of these three important ingredients There are however soils in the hilly eastern and southern part of the county that no doubt will not show the proper proportions neither will those near Ellis-ton that are known as the slashy craw- ¬ Probably two thirds of the fish lands soils of the county have the proper phys- ¬ The lands that have not ical condition the proper physical condition and that are properly drained can be improved ling more of that ingredient in which it is deficient Frequently this can be done at a small expense and wherever done the difference in the yield will show that it was not labor thrown away If the physical condition of a soil is what it should be as it is iu most of Mad- ¬ Beds of valuable clay are found in the eastern part of tjiis county near Waco Bybetown and Speedwell For a number of years the clay of some of them has been used to make flower pots pickle jars etc but recently new beds have leen opened They are all translocated clays that is clays that have not been formed in place but have been deposited heieby water They seem to be inexhaustible and are in beds easy of access The mere fact of their being anaaalacatad clays is almost sufficient evidence that they are not fire clays although the purer clay is sufficiently infusible to resist the heat of the blow pipe flame but that which is less pure fuses owing probab ly to their large proportion of iron oxide and potash Four analyses of these clays have been made by the Kentucky Geolo ¬ gical Survey but none as yet has been made of the more recently opened beds All four of these analyses show a high percentage of potash and two a high jiercentage of iron oxide and magnesia As those with the highest percentage of potash iron oxide and magnesia are re jiorted fusible and those with only pot ash in excess almost infusible and as from the new beds are infusible before the blow pipe flame it is reasonable to supjiose that they contain less of these three ingredients and in sonsequence will give a more favorable analysis Some of this clay is almost pure white some a light gray and some yellowish mottled with light brown It is what is termed a fat clay and feels soapy As it is a fat clay it will contract on burn- ¬ ing but as there is an abundance of clean white sand in the immediate neighborhood this fault can be remedied The practical tests to which this clay has been subjected have all proved that it has a wide range of utility The being carried white clay without through any process of purification burns to a delicate cream color and the yellowish to a very light pink If thev should lie subjected to the usual process of purification they would no doubt burn sufficiently white to make ordinary tableware It is better adapted however to the production of ornamental china sewage ware terra cotta
