silk through its various processes in
reaching a silk dress. The silk is sent
to the dyers, and the first process is
boiling off. All silk in its natural state
has a certain amount of gum in 1t; this
must be boiled of. and, when this is
done, sixteen ounces are reduced to
twelve. 1t is then dyed black, and the
process of weighing commences. The
twelve ounces is sent to the manutac-
turer, varying from twenty-tOur to
tifty-two ounces. l have to-day seen

The candidacy of 81. Hoffman for
County Auditor is an insult to the ln-
telligent voter of the party that noml-
mated him and gross insult to every
honest voter of the County. He is sell
dom to be found in his office, all the
work is done by others, and he some
times absents himself two and three
days at time, and when there his sole
business is to sign his name. The sys-
tenn of paying to favorites and of specu-
1ations peculiar to the present Auditors
office, Is to be carried out on q larger
scale in the county office. We have
said that he was seldom at his office
and 1t is to be further statec
that when there his most frequent Wis
itor and trusted adviser is Mi. Alexan
der Sands. The honest voters Of Ham
ilton County do not think such an al
wiser the best that can be found elthe
Tor City or County Auditor. Hoffman
is sharp, keen, cunning, nnserupuiou
politician, and the possessor of sucl
qualities is unfit for the responsible oi
flee OF County Auditor. He can no
carry q majority Of the voters OF bis owl
party. His only reliance now is upoI
the help he can get from his cronies ant
co-Woykers on the Republican side. TIN
only way out of the difficulty is to pu
him of the ticket.

The complaint is now frequently heard
that the SILK fabrics now Manufactured
are by no means as lasting as similar
fabrics manufactured twenty or thirty
wears ago. That This comp amt is justi-

ADMITS, and then points out The causes
of deterioration. Adulteration of silk
on large scale, and systematically,
began eighteen years ago, soon after tue
sllk-worm disease had made its appear

Europe, when raw silk rose from Il and

IT Is generally understood by those
who have charge of the politics OF OHIO
that the noise and fuss made at conven-
Mons and by stump speakers is only for
the purpose of masking the real wants
and purposes of the managers. outside
OF Ohio it is well understood that the
Democratic plan is to elect Bishop, II 1t
can be done easily, il not, it will be all
right-but we must elect q Republican
LEGISLATURE in The interest OF the South
ern Pacific Railroad. In the RepublI-
can camp the only thing wanted is a
Legislature that will elect Senator
who IS cheek by jowl with the promoters
of that great enterprise. The Governor
ship is mere side show, and all efforts
are to be directed TO the selection Of the
right kind of a Legislature leaving the
candidates for Governor to take care OF
themselves.

Texas, Dakota aud the Platte, in which
are over five regiments of cavalry and
thirteen of infantry. West Point con-
stitutes a separate military department,
but there is only small detachment Of
troops stationed there. In the eyes of
some this will appear like a formidable
statement Of departments and troops,
but when the vast eXpanse Of country
over which they are scattered is con-
sidered, it will be apparent that for
country SO extensive in It's boundaries
