For two years, perhaps, we
have had the richest, largest,
mostvaried andmost exhaus-
tive collection of dress-goods
in Philadelphia. Before that,
we may have had the largest,
and even the most exhaus-
tive, but perhaps not the
richest. The slowest trade
to come to a new merchant
is the trade of luxury. 1t is
the slowest to change from
one to another. But it does
change.
We may say our dress
goods of all sorts are at
about their highest now.
Second and third circles southeast
from center.
Silks of all sorts have
come; and never were silks
more acceptable. And these
words have a meaning here
beyond any they could have
elsewhere; because of the
greater variety of wants that
look to US for supply. We
must have all accepted styles.
and all the approved quail
ties of those styles; and, as
to colors, can you think of
one that we can do without?
A store that has only one
class of trade can get along
with comparatively few silks.
Which )stock would you
rather buy out of?

Two damask towels at Il
and IS cents may serve to
show what we gain by buy
ing of the makers. The very
same towels are in the whole
sale trade in New York at
about FL and 22 cents, which
means at least IS cents at
retail.
We are not going to say
that all our retail prices arc
below New York wholesale;
nothing of the sort. more
than one swallow to make a
summer" But where such
towels are to be got for IS
cents is a good place to look
for bed and table-linen, and
all the other linens. That's
what we mean exactly; its
true, too.
Outer circle, City hall square entrance.
A very wide and surpris-
ingly good navy-blue twilled
flannel for so cents; 45-inch.
DO you remember a So

which we had $4,000 yards

1000 yards more of it; and
a little of it is left yet That

mel is fully as good as that.

Hon. Hamilton b. Staples read a
paper at the annual meeting OF the
American Antiquarian Society in Wor-
cester. Mass. a short time since, in
which he discussed the origin Of the
names of several of the States. His
conclusions were as follows: New
Hampshire gets its name from Hamp-
shire, England. Massachusetts, is de-
rived from an Indian name, first given
to the bay, signifying ''near the great
hills" Rhode Island has an obscure
origin. 1.-The Island of Rhodes" the
"Island Of the Roads, and Dutch
origin, "Red Island" were mentioned,
the first seeming to have the best his
torcal support. Connecticut a an In
dian name, signifying 'land on long
tidal river" New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland
were passed over. Virginia, the Caro-
linas. aud Georgia have royal origin.
Maine was named from the fact that it
was supposed to contain the 'mayne
portion" Of New Eugland. Vermont
las no especial question, except that it
is claimed 10 have been first an alias
New Connecticut alias Vermout Ken
tucky popularity signifies either "a dark
and bloody ground" OF a "bleody
river" but its origin signifies "the
head of u river, or ''the long river.
Tennessee comes from j.s river, the
name being derived from the name OF
an Indian village on the Tlver ''Ta-
nasse." Ohio is named after an Indian
name signifying something great,
with an accent OF admiration. ladiana
comes from the name of an early land
company. Illinois comes from the
IndIan--the name OF tiibe. Michigan
is claimed to mean ''lake country" 1t
probably came from the name OF the
laks Great Lake. which bore this
name before the land adjacent was
name v Louisiana is from the French.
Arkansas and Missouri are Indian, the
former being doubtful. The latter is
claimed to mean in its original muddy
water" which describes the river.
Iowa is also Indian. with doubtful
meaning. Texas is popularly supposed
to be Indian. but may be Spanish 4
Florida is Spanish-"a howery land. F"
Oregon has conjectural origin. 1t is
probably Indian, but Spanish origin
is claimed. California comes from
Spanish romance OF 1910. Nevada
takes its name from the mountains,
who got theirs from resemblance to
the Nevadas of South America. Min
nesota is Indian, ''sky-tinted water"
Nebraska is variously rendered ''shal-
low water" and flat country" Kan

of which was the insurance loss,) or al
average of $50, 900 destroyed by eacl

The Honorable Timothy o. Howe re
marks that no hos paid no attention to
the star route developments as they have
appeared in the papers. MOre's the pity
for the venerable third termer, for, if
Brewster means business, as he claims
he does, Mr.. Howe will be constrained to
familiarize himself with at least the sa-
lient features of the steals. A moments
observation would inform Mr.. Howe
that the several groups of rings obtained
from the government in all the sum of
s.. 3j7. 764 II for a service embracing
SO 507 miles, when they had contracted
to carry the mails IS, 853 miles for ST.
262 305. In addition to these regular
routes, there was a temporary" service,
which was let by Brady without compe-
tition at ring rates, and at total cost of
81, 121. 223 81. as to the prosecutions,
we shall see what we shall see. Mr..
Howe's remarkable apathy to these motto
rious frauds does not commend his fit
ness for the responsible position that he
has assumed. In his selection the Presi-
dent has made blunder.

According to the late census, the value
of property assessed for purposes of taxa
ton in the United States is SIC, 1897, 1885,.
SCI, or 1896 SO per capita for a popula-
ton of so, 155, 1888 The New England
States possess $2,652. O76, $50 of the
property, with a population of 4,010, 500,
or at the rate of 1861 q per capita. In
other words, New England las about
two-thirteenths of the taxable property
of the country, with considerably less
than one-twelfth of the population. 1t
has a denser population than any Of the
other sections, and twice as much money
per capita as the West, and four times
as much as the South. Massachusetts
money is invested in the remotest quar-
tiers of the Union, and in Mexico. TAX
ing the country as whole, wealth has
increased very much more rapidly than
population, and the most populous sec
tions show the most property for every
individual. But the States which have
the most wealth are, of course, burdened
with the heaviest debts.

Whitaker Again.


The height OF folly and Of humbug sp-
pears to have been reached by Judge
Advocate General Swain in the matter
of the notorious colored cadet Whitta-
ker. 1t is at last permitted the public to
know that the court martial, whose tedl-
Gus and costly trial of this young col
ored man will not soon be forgotten,
found him guilty of all the charges, and
sentenced him to be dismissed from the
service, and otherwise punished for mu-
tilating his own ears and charging the
act upon his fellow cadets, who had not
treated him like a white man. The
Judge Advocate now proposes to set
aside the long and costly trial-the sec
ond one, be 1t remembered, in this ia
nous case-and leave the whole misera-
bic mess to be gone through with once
more. His reason for this is humbug.
He claims that the court martial was
not properly ordered; that instead OF
being ordered by the President, it ought
to have been ordered by Major General
Schofeld
General Swain is going too far in this.
The public will believe, and with reason,
that this strange action on his part is
taken because Whitaker is a negro and
represents an enormous vote by that
class; that no such course would have
been taken had the accused been a
white man.
To drag all the way through this
wretched mess for a third time is little
too bad it as bad as a new trial of Gui-
teau would be.
The New York Herald, commenting
on this reported decision by Swain,
says:
LET us hope that there is not quite so
much imbecilitY in the administration as
this would imply. Whitaker was sup
posed to have scratched his ears with a
scissors, to give the notion that an out
rage had been committed against him
| and to escape, under the dust that this
would raise, the penalty for failures in
his studies Certainly he did not miscal-
culate the amount of dust, for two tedious
trials left the point in issue so far doubt
full that there was still room for dispute,
| and now a want Of technical regularity
| in the record may invite to a repetition
of all that wretched reproach upon even
military methods of doing justice. Is
the government afraid of Whitaker and
/ what Whitaker implies, and does it
merely pretend this technical difficulty
in order to defeat the adverse judgment
/ of the court2"

The San Francisco Chronicle calls at
tention to Elk Senator Sargeant's polyga-
my record, aud asks whether President
Arthur can consistently select as con-
stitutiOnal adviser a man who opposed
Mr.. Polands bill giving plural wives the
right to sue for divorce and to divide
the property Of the husband Mr.. Sar-
gent, in defense of his course, wrote a
letter to the Salt Lake Tribune, in which
he said: "Polygamy is a religious in.
stitution, and have never known per
secution to be effective against religion. "
The Chronicle also quotes extracts from
the Gail and Bulletin, of San Francisco,
now supporting Mr.. Sargent, as alleged,
because he is backed by the railroad
monopoly, in which they criticised him
with great severity.

4 Panic Predicted.

Mr.. John W. BOokwalter, late Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of Ohio,
and one of the largest and most success
full manufacturers in that State, predicts
that there will be a panic in this country
inside of eighteen months. He says:
There is not a business in this country
to-day that is not out of joint. The
price of production, of labor and mate
rails is increasing and will increase,
while the price of products stands still
No man can look ahead six months and
with safety fix the price of any manu-
features" Mr. Bookwalter SAYS this is
an unnatural and unhealthy state of af-
fairs, and declares that eve are surely
travelling the circle that leads to periodl-
Cal panics.
The Louisville Courier Journal takes
a more hopeful and, we trust, rational
view of the business prospect. 1t says;
ct may be that there will be a reaction
toward lower prices as far as stocks are
concerned, and some of the purely specu
lative ones may entirely disappear.
There will probably also be more diff
Guilty in floating worthless securities, and
purely speculative enterprises will have
a hard time indeed, but that there is
danger of a commercial revolution or of
industrial stagnation there is no reason
to believe. If the public would study a
little more carefully the courses of the
fluctuations, not in prices alone, but in
prosperity, the prophets of evil and the
visionary schemers would not find it so
easy to secure followings."

If the newspapers in Mexico and in
Central America keep on firing the
public heart they are likely to bring on
a general war in that part of the CONT
nent. The Diarj0 Official of Mexico has
been talking unkindly about Guatemala,
and its utterances are taken as insults
from the one country to the other. The
principal newspaper of the Republic of
Honduras. La Paz, replies in behalf of
the Central American States collec-
lively, and it is said that war is immi-
nent. If actual hostilities are the out
come it will be an interesting illustra-
ton of the power Of the press in a re-
gion where the great lever" has not
been supposed to be very potent.

1t may be remembered that, when
Secretary Window desired to return to
the Senate, Mr.. Edgerton, the Minnesota
Governors appointee to WINDOWS
former seat, promptly withdrew from
the contest before the Legislature, and
allowed Mr.. Window to recapture the
prize. a Minnesota politician throws
some light upon this singular affair as
follows: cat the first opportunity after
taking the oath as Senator, Mr.. Window
introduced bill to admit part of Dakota
as State. A few days afterWard Ed
gerton was nominated and confirmed as
Chief Justice of Dakota. Now, when
Window gets Dakota into the Union,

shape for his own election to the
