THE FIRST PRESIDENT.

Ninety-one years ago to-day, that is to
say on the Both of April, 1889, George
Washington was inaugurated as the first
President of the United States. The
resolution adopted September 18th, 1888,
by the Colonial Congress set the first
Wednesday in January following as the
day for appointing Electors for the differ
ent States, the first Wednesday in Febru-
ary as the date when the Electors should
cast their votes for President and Vice
President, and the first Wednesday in
March as the day for setting in motion
the Government machinery in accordance
with the Constitution which had been
adopted.
A few of the members of both Senate
and House who had been elected from
the various States assembled On this first
Wednesday in March, which happened
to fall for that year on the 4th, but
no quorum of the House was obtained
until the 1st of April following, nor Of
the Senate until the 9th. The House
organized April 1st and on the 9th the
Senate followed suit, electing John
Langdon Of New Hampshire President
pro tem., and Sam. A. Otis of Massa-
chusetts Secretary, for the purpose OF
counting the votes for President of the
United States. -..
Two persons were voted for, the one
having the highest number of votes
being George Washington, and he was
accordingly declared President, and the
one receiving the next highest number
being John Adams he was declared the
Vice President for the four years ensu
ing. April 21st John Adams appeared
and took his seat as President of tn,
Senate, and on Thursday, April Both
George Washington appeared and tool
the solemn oath Of Office, this being ad
ministered to him by Chancellor Liv
ingston of New York, who proclaimed
"Long live George Washington, Presi
dent Of the United States" OF his eigh
years Of service as Chief Magistrate ant
voluntary retirement to private life a
that time history has made every Amer

the Senate Railroad Committee, which

the Senate Railroad Committee, which
has agreed to recommend the passage of
a bill to extend the time for the compile
tion of the Northern Pacific Railroad six
years and of the Texas Pacific ten years.
These railroads were in active progress
at the time the financial storm of 1873
overlook the country and Frustrated
their owners along with so many other
business men and business enterprises in
a common ruin. After seven years of
waiting for revival of the industries of
the country we see it dawn at last and
once more their energetic projectors take
hold of these almost forgotten railroads
and prepare to push them through to
completion.
But both are met by the lapse of the
land grants accorded them by Congress
under which alone it was then or is now
possible to complete the roads. Had
their prosecution been abandoned at
time when the country was in full tide
of prosperity and other enterprises -four
ishing, or had the parties who undertook
to prosecute that vast undertaking now
abandoned them, there might he some
reason in refusing to continue the grants
the few years longer that is now pro-
posed; but such is not the case. The
work on both is being actively prose-
cuted and will undoubtedly be finished
within a comparatively short period,
giving us two additional lines of railroad
across the continent with their inevitable
string of towns and cities scattered their
entire length.
The Committee has adopted one excel
lent provision in the bill which is in ac-
cordance with the policy already
adopted by the Northern Pacific, that
the agricultural lands within the odd
numbered sections shall be sold to actual
settlers at not exceeding So so per acre.
Another provision is that the lands so
sold shall be conveyed directly from the
Government to the settler.
There is little doubt that Congress
will pass the bill as recommended by
the committee and that we shall soon
see the completion of these additional
lines uniting the East with the wonder
full development on the western slope of
the continent.

WHO HOLDS THE TRUMPs IN EUROpF'

In all the population of Europe, num-
bering over three hundred millions, there
are only few sovereign or ruling fam
lilies, the entire membership of which in
cludes only seven hundred and nineteen
individuals. The disproportion between
the bone and sinew that go towards the
making up of National strength, and
the gilt gingerbread of royalty, is as
great as in the Falstaflian menu of
bread and sack-a pennyworth of the
former to an intolerable deal of the lat
ter.
In America the membership of the
sovereign or reigning families number
forty-fve and some odd millions, and
there is not retired" monarch amongst
them. Every one in greater or less
degree rules over somebody else from the.
cradle to the grave, sometimes with ty-
rannical sway.
Great feas have little fleas to bite 'em,
And so 1t goes ad infnitum."
AS matter of course many of these
seven hundred and nineteen hereditary
fellows in Europe are overloaded with
titles if not with responsibilities. The
Emperor of Austria, Franz Joseph, isnot
only Emperor of the Austriches, but he
holds more kingly titles-is once Arch
Duke, twice Grand Duke, eighteen times
simple Duke, once Great Prince, four
times Margraye, five times Count of the
Empire and twice Prince. The case of
F. J. is rather of an extreme one in the
concentration of legitimate titles and
offices in one person, most of which bear
with them rich pickings and perquisites.
The King Of Portugal, Louis I, is also
King of the Algraves, Signor of Guinea
and Congo, and Duke of Saxony, and
has eighteen Christian names which he
is known by in domestic circles.
They are not all used however, when
he is summoned to breakfast, or his coffee
would get cold before the roll-call could
be completed. One of his sons is loaded
down with twenty-nine Christian names,
and another with twenty. The title of
King Of the Goths and Vandals is
claimed jointly by the reigning monarcha
of Sweden and Denmark, but these being
empty honors, barren scepters as it were,
these Scandinavian Kings do not quarrel
over the disputed titles. The Grand
Duke of Mecklenburgh-Shelitz is also a
General Of Cavalry in the Prussian
Army, and Colonel of Infantry in the
Austrian Army, and D. G. L. of Ok.
ford University. At another Sadowa,
under which command would his Grand
Dukeness draw his sword?
Victoria is not only "by the grace Of
God Queen Of the United Kingdom Of
Great Britain and Ireland, Defender Of
the Faith, &c.," but by the grace of Bea
consfeld Empress of the Indies and ruler
over endless colonial dependencies. Al
Defender Of the Faith" her duties art
rather complicated and must be rather
embarrassing if she gives them much
personal attention, as the people ovel
whom she reigns are Infused with about
every religious faith known amongst
men. On the whole, very few people
in Europe seem to hold "all the honors'
and will continue to do so until the peo
pie take it into their heads to shuttle tht
| cards and call for a new deal.

CIGAR MANUFACTURING.
An Old House in a New Location.

Among the prominent industries which
have given Cincinnati the position which
it now holds as the manufacturing center
Of the West, we can place the manufactur-
ing OF cigars as among the most important
by reason of he large capital it requires,
the number of persons 1t gives employment
to, and the heavy income itpays to the
State and National Government
The rapid growth Which has attended
this industry IN this city may be attrib-
utable to several causes: Our location so
near the great tobacco-growing country
our admirable transportation facilities;
mild, equable climate, have been great
advantages; but another and stron. rea-
son lies in the fact that this city has alwa S
had reputation OF sending out superior
quality Of 200 Is, and our cigar manufac-
turers are reckoned among our most enter
prising and energetic business men.
Among those who may be classed as rep
resentative houses in this line, we may
place
J. B. r. LrNDER,
who was formerly at 439 Vine street, and
having branch at 613 Central avenue, but
has within few days removed to the south
east corner of Pearl and Walnut streets
where he has leased and fitted up the large
lour-story building as mandatory and
warehouse. ...
Mr.. Linder has been engaged in the bus
mess about fifteen years in this city, and
has built up large and thriving trade
through the States Of Ohio Indiana Ill
inois, Kentucky and Tennessee, strictly
upon the merits of the goods he turns out
He uses only the best Of imported and do
mestic tobacco, and employs the bes
skilled labor, making specially of th'
best handmade cigars of the finest grades
His business has so increased within thu
last two or three years as to make his re
moval from his old place necessary. He ii

wprkmen besides strippers, ETC., and ha
large orders ahead. Mr. Linder gives hi
personal attention to his business and look
after every detail, consequently no goods
are permitted to leave the factory unless
they are fully up to the desired standard.
Personally, he is very much respected
in this community and in business circles
lie is regarded as one of our mos
prompt and reliable merchants. We taxi
pleasure in recommending this house II

assured that all dealings with them will
prove, in every respect, satisfactory.
