The other day I took a ride on tho narrow
gauge to Cedsrtown. It Is a smart MtUe rood
and the train can skip out Don* a station
quicker than a wide gauge {rain. The wholo
turn out looks like it was made for children) to
go on a Sunday school excutinn. The conduc
tors and engineers ought to be JittJo men, and
I think Ur. West, who owns it, is entirely too
frig far his road. 1 remember when he first
??ame south and was prospecting around for
iron property. Before anybody knew it he
had bought a few thousand acres near Cedar-
tea n and now he runs a big furnace and owns
a railroad anil ha* doubled the population
Crdsrfoun and trebled the value at contiguous
properly Schools and churches are thriving
and to ia trade and business. It in wonderful
whst one smart energetic man can dolor
rcmmunity. I saw great stacks of pig iron
at Mind (be lurnace and. learned there were
aver 7,000 tone waiting for a rise in price. Ur.
West said there would be a rise before long.
Be talked like he had confidence and said that
if the l oliticisn* would M the tariff on iron
alone he dident care who they elected presi
dent so tiny didenl elect him. Ue is oue of
the solid men and devotes his time and money
to iner*using tho value of our natural pro
ducts. Die ore in the bank and the charcoal in
the rUnding |??inrt and tho limestone in the
quany, all cost money hut it is not generally
known thst lift/ cent* worth will make a ton
ef j.ig iiun thst will sell.for fifteen dollars From
twelve to ft iirtecn dollnre is expended for la-
U r. Labor ?????! man and beast, sweat and toil
that is paid lor at an average price of one dollar
ptrduy, Ono ilo))??r a duj will keep tho
avtiage laborer and his wifeund children from
went tut filiy cents will not. When the tarilf
is tslitn oil and loreigu iron come* free into
???ur msiketa the price will be reduced 1i seven
or eight dollars a ton and tho labor bo reduced
in the same way. Thst will hulp the masses
a little 1 reckon for our plow* and hoc* mid
wagoti* will bo a littleciicupir, not inunii, but
it will lie ruin to liiofle poor humble toilers who
??? ate lbe iron. Fifty evutn a day wont sap-
jmit them for Inead nud meat will bo n??
chirper then it i* now. Home things will
conn down under the Ireo trade principle but
brtsii and meat will not. We export wheat
and Ilnur and perk aud beef now to couutHe*
that charge no custom house duties. Thou
Why should they coiue down. Want we all
Want Is diversified industries. Anniston
fl?? uritbes and everybody seem* to be doing
well there. liven the farmers in that nahur-

k Tacific railroad to McCarty station, uml then
tram far la nn Indian pony, and rida eighteen
miles south by cost. When near your journey'#
end, you descend almost imperceptibly Into tho
valley, six mile* in width, iu the middle
of which stand* a butte, and on the top of thi*
is Acoma. Eight hundred people art
living there, and they aud their a nee*,
tors have gathered there the sum of their
pott salon* for nearly three centuries.
This butte i* ono of the many that
are tho remnants of a me*a (bat has been
worn away by the oration ot tho age*, and
survives only in fist-topped mountains hero
and there. Tho vnllcya between oro fertile,
and untold generations of men lmva seen them
rovmd with waving grain and flock* of

Dome timo In tho seventeenth tentary the
Laguna, or volley Indians, made war upon tho
Acotuas for possession of tho c mutry, and the
latter being tho weukor occupied tho butte at
a defensive position believed to be impregna
ble. Their judgment has been abundantly
indicated. It ha* proved a Gibraltar of
strength and safety. Tho coinniri-wu i* n??t
inappropriate, and in approaching it from
the north 1 was struck with tho
rtsemblance to the pictures I have scon of
that grim lortrsss that frowns ovor the stra ta
to tho Mediterranean. The height above tho
volley Is nearly 400 feet aud tho wall* in sev-
crol places nearly perpendicular. Thorn uro
two mean* of ascent, ono by a'flight of steps
rut into the wall ami rining at an utigle ot f >r-
ly hvo degrees, and tho other by a fis-
??? ??wn in tho rocks lending up into tho heart
of the mountain. Doth ways have been
troddi ii by human feet until tho steps nrn
hollow* d out tike slmllow trough*. Either one
U <accedingly difficult and neither i* tolerably
safe. We rho.e tho one iilong the fissure. To
an idi a of the lnhoriou*oe.*?? of the talk,
imagine a Muirway starling at Mr. Grosvouor???t

it being finished in time for iu dedication on
the 22nd of next February. As the construc

ucilM the most enrioahy it how the cap*loao
is lo be placed in position. People passing
along tb?? street look up and sea the large
must which supports the boom for lilting
???tone, projecting above tho inonumcutthrlu.'li
the 'try point which will bo oj.vipie-1 by
the rapulMie, and wonder how tho latter c*q
bo placed in position when tho mast is taken

the work will bo done. When only nine
more alone* are wanted to rcuch the sum-
wit, a little platform will bo built around the
re"i, which will be finished up to that point.
Tins platform will bo bracketed to large tim
ber* extending along the outside surface of the
roof and resting upon the largo pisiform
which <an be seen at the top of the shaft
proper on tho outside. The n inn stones needed
to complete the work will Ipi hoisted by the
big boom, which it now at work, and placed
on the platform. The must aud boom and
wholo hoisting apparatus will bo theu taken
down and entirely removed. In its place
will bo erected a quadruped, f* ' *
upon the little platform reft
hi ex of this quaarupod, which will be directly
above the location ol the capstone, will be a
block and tackle by which the remaining
stone* will bo raised end put in place. Affor
the stones oro all up, the quadrnpo-J will be
r< moved, theu the bracketed platform, and
Drily the heavy timbers which supported it.
The men will reach tbo largo plat firm by
??ans ol a ladder. The work will then be
