Each and every one Of the articles re-
ferred to above is the handiwork of the
ladies' That they have taken considerable
trouble in making these flowers can not be
disputed, and so great is the skill shown by
them in their work, that these artificial
flowers actually deceived connoisseur who
mistook them for natural and living
flowers.
The ladies are doing better business than,
perhaps, any other two stands in the Fair.
They have, moreover, entire control OF the
strawberry stand, and they are making this
delicious fruit bring in handsome financial
returns.
The ladies do not propose at present TO
make public the amount taken in by them,
but VIII wait until the close of the Fair.
Another delightful feature of the Conserv-
atory is the "Grecian Oracle" who nightly

THE LOAD GETTING HEAVIER.

Mr.. EDITOR: The public debt statement
for the month Of July, shows an increase IN
the public debt, during the month, of over
six millions of dollars. So it has been 60
ing on under the present financial policy of
the John Sherman ring, who control our
public affairs. The load grows heavier ey,
cry day, every hour, every minute, every
second as time passes, and the road we travel
now can only lead to national bankruptcy.
md the downfall of our Republic. As an
excuse for this monstrous increase in the
public debt during July, Sherman says there
was paid for arrears of pensions during the
month s., 694, 600. By turning to the finan-
cii statement mentioned it will be seen
that he reports $2S2, sos, ,273 as the amount
of cash in tie treasury, and yet to pay few
pension arrears he finds it necessary to
plunge the nation over six millions dollars in
debt; notwithstanding the fact he could
have paid the pension arrears out Of the
idle capital locked mp in the treasury, and
still have held reserve of many millions
more than there is any necessity of keeping
Perhaps, however, this $282. SOS, ,273 is not
m the treasury, but deposited with certain
favorite, pet bankers who pay Sherman a
moderate rate of interest to use In buying
more real estate at mortgage rates. (This
| is only a surnaise of mine, founded upon
mference.l However, this may be, the in.
famous outrage of increasing the interest
bearing debt at the rate of six millions q
month, while . superabundance Of cash il
reported in the treasury must be apparent te
every one. The man who would borrow
money to pay Thousand dollar debt when
he had on hand hundred Thousand dollar
in cash that he had no use for would Justly
be considered fool, and John Sherman, wt
may justly consider worse than . fools
knave.
| We ask, in the name of heaven how long
the people win allow this work to go on
