1t will De remembered that this most excel
lent troupe paid our city visit last winter
giving nightly entertainments for week Oh
SO at the Athletic Hall. We are pleased tc
announce that the company will again give
a series of performances. commencing next
Monday night, at the Opera House. Tha.
versatile artist. Louie Lord, is very popular
with our people. among whom obtains the
opinion that her troupe Is the best which has
ever played in Salina. Crowded audiences
from the first to the last evening greeted them
during the troupe's visit here last winter. and
We believe they established such reputation
as will ensure them the same large attendance
next week. Their plays are new-the very
latest. Several new members have joined the
troupe, and it Is now the largest and bes.
one travelling. The very mention of Mr.. and
Mrs. Lord, Mr.. and Mrs. Seymour, Taylor.
Miss Clara Bell and others, revives many
pleasant memories Of last winters performan-
ces in the minds Of Salinas theatre goers.
The play next Monday evening will be lied
Astray." Give them a rousing. old-fashioned
house, for they deserve to be thus honored.

The Washington correspondent of the
Springfield Republican is talking over the
prospects in 1880. He says many uncompli-
mentary things of Senator Blaine, but adds
"Blaine is regarded by some of the infuen-
tial Democrats as the most formidable candi-
date that could be put in nomination by the
other side" In regard to Republican
chances he says: "Thanks, however, to the
blunders and the inherent elements of weak
ness of their opponents, notably the ire
deemable currency doctrine. the cipher tele-
grams and the intimidation campaign in
South Carolina and Louisiana, the Republi-
cans have again come forward with united
front, have already won back something oi
the lost ground, and if the present appear.
ances may be trusted, will enter the next
national contest with a good prospect o
success"

BRING out the big guns. Gold fell to par
yesterday. 1t Is now nearly seventeen years
since gold was quoted at par. On the 18th
of January, 1852, it jumped up to 1O9, and
by July 11th, 1854, had reached 2S5. These
have been seventeen years of waste and
want. We now see the dawn of better day.
At last, after weary waiting, the country is
on the mending hand.
