FICTITIOUS PR(CBS

Webster defines the word Fictitious"
thus: "Feigned; imaginary; not real;
counterfeit; false; not genuine" Such is
the character Of the catalogue prices OF
pianos and organs, differing some in the
enormity of the ofense in proportion to
the quality of the instruments; for be it
understood that many Of the cheapest
made instruments rate about the same ON
the catalogues IS frst-class ones. This
condition is regretted by some of the
leading makers, but they are power ess
to change because many deal
ers insist on the present
policy being continued, for the reason
that it gives them better chance to get
high prices by making purchasers be-
lieve that in offering them $1,000 piano
for $3.50 or S $3.50 organ for $3.50, that
they are giving immense bargains, when
in fact the instrument may be exceed
ingly dear even at these seemingly very
low prices. A business man in this city
thinking that he could get first class
piano at the factory much cheaper than
he could in this city, bought one shown
him on the catalogue to be 81 900, for
S525, IS q special price to him, with the
understanding that be Wss to use his in
Auence to effect sales long his friends.
1t was very disappointing to him when
shown that I could have furnished the
instrument for $425, with reasonable
profit to myself Recently lady mad
piano selected for her in New York, at q
cost of $500 delivered In this city, which
she highly priced. The tuner did not
convince her that she could have pur-
chased the same class of piano by the
same maker from me. for $500,
that being the regular price. Many SIM
liar cases have come to my knowledge.

are snare and q deception when used to

On an Empty Stomach.

The Chicago Times is responsible for

t0risl, demanding Sabbath laws and other
enac;ments entirely agreeable to iich dea-
cons, but somewhat inconvenient for per-

the party has not been called upon 10

rassment has been that the official feed
ing OF two decades had rathed overloaded
its stomach. But IT fights tremendously
at the very thought Of losing its fodder,

truth If the republican party had 70

The Indian Lands.

From many of the reservations ON this
northwestern coast, the opinions Of the
Indians are Icing taken. The natives
generally express their Willingness to be-
come c;.izens # the United States and
take up lands in seyeralty. More es-
peciallY is this the case OH the Umatllla,
Nez Perce, Colyille and Moses reserva-
tIons Their wishes have been laid be-
fore the proper authorities, but no action
has been OF Is likely to De taken The
reason Is evident
If the Indians themselves desire to
abandon the reservation hunting grounds
and become individual landowners, why
does the government delay step which
must be taken if they are ever to escape
from the life of barbarism, OF are ever TO
become capable of seifsuppcrt by any
civilized meansl The answer Is, there
would be no profit in the change for the
kuaves and demagogues Of the Indian
ring. While our idio:ic Indian policy has
been a disgrace to the nation and a
blghting curse to the Indians, it has been
a veritable Golconda Of wealth to knavish
spectators and nnPrineiplel denragogues.
There have been mllii ms III IT. S. long

wards for party Services upon dirty polIt-

no hurry to put the Indians IN the way Of

as an important division of the party

Our Coming Visitor.
BUMMER-

According to the scientific savans at
the National observatory, the new comet
will approach nearest the sun about July
10, and its distance from the sun at that
time will be about Clio Of the earth dis
lance from the sun, or about 56, ,OOO, 600
miles. Ii is a. presen: about i83, ,000, 600
miles from the sun, and is approaching
that body at the rate of 800, 900 miles
2er day. Its distance from the earth il
about I51 900, 900 miles, and the daily
dee, ease Of this distance Is at present
about one million of miles This decrease
will soon be much less, SO tha: during
June and July the comet will not change
its distance from the earth very much.
Its nearest approach to our globe will
be about Aug. l, when its distance from
us will be about one hundred and nine
millions Of miles. Its brightness will IN
crease but slowly for some time to come.
About June it will be nearly six times
as bright as it now is; on July /, eigh-
teen times, ard on July I9, twenty -four
times as bright. The last number will
express it's greatest brilliancy, which Is,
of course, theoretical, and derived from
the comets distance from the sun and
from the earth, on the supposifion that
its light is only reflected light. 1t is now
as bright as an eighteen magnitude star.
The comet will not be visible to the max
ed eye in less than four weeks, and will
then appear almost directly north, about
y degrees above the horizon

miles or more on either si6e. This en-

settled with a very industrious class Of
people, who do their trading here, with
the exception of fes who go to Colfa1
and some other points, for the simple
reason that they can trade cheaper" than
in Moscow What we need here is more
competition. There is not - vet ono

now for people to engage In most any
