A Find Of photographic stone.

An artist who was out sketching in
Bern county, California, lost his way,
and in his wanderings discovered a
great cliff of photographic stone, such
as is only found in one other place in
the world, Solehhofen, Bavaria. The
BavariaN quarries produce annually
1900 cubic yards of photographic
stone, at q cost of $1,000, 900 and tho
proprietors of the quarries sell the
product for so, 0e0 900, or an advance
on the cost of 800 per sent.

PREC xpTIONS AGAINST TIL
= PLAGUE.

The national, State and Municipal
governments in the United States are
taking every possible precaution
against cholera, by establishing and
enforcing quarantine regulations,
cleaning cesspools, streets and alleys,
etc. While it would be impossible to
stop the dcvastations of the plague, if
it slrnild. break out, it is evidently
meant to aliniit them as much as posi-
bic.
In the Wood River towns there are
doubtless many impurities, many
plague-spots, that would propagate
the disease if it were once introduced !;
and it would be we'll for every house
holder to look about his premises and
see il he cannot do something to as
sist in preserving he public health in
his immediate vicinity.

MATTERS IN THE EAST.

Money Scarce, Business Depressed, Cap.
italiSts and Business Men Very Con.
sentative Better Times Looked For
This Fall.
a business man who recently ar
rived from the East, says the financial
depression is much greater than any
one here would imagine. There is
absolutely no money IN clrcul alton for
actual needs, almost all the capital
being locked up. This is princi pally
due to the fact that this is Presiden-
tial year, when all the heaviest bus'
ness men, manufacturers and capital
lists "hedge" in every possible way, in
order to be prepared to meet any rad
ical change of policy. Atpresent the
great dread is free trade. If the Dem
ocrats gained power, they might open
the ports to the commerce OF all ma
tions, and this would ruin or seriously
cripple the importing and exporting
trade. On the other hand, if Blaine
is elected, it is feared that his aggres-
sive policy will lead US into war with
Mexico, for the conquest Of that coun-
try, which might result in war with
two or more foreign powers. In this
dilemma all the business interests are
exercising the greatest caution.
The spring panic, this gentleman
said, came near resulting in national
calamity. 1t came at time when
about S25O,000,0O0 Of active money
had been transferred, or withdrawn
from this country, to meet the wants
Of Americans making their annual
tours to foreign lands. This class OF
American citizens, who spend at least
100000 per annum in foreign
parts, always provide themselves with
money to twice the extent Of their
actual needs, and thus withdraw an
annual average of S200,O0O, 900 to
100000 from circulation in this
country. Under these circumstances
it is almost wonder that the panic
did not spread.
BY fall about half of this circulat-
ing medium will fluid its way back,
money will be taken from the vaults
to move the crops, the Presidential
campaign will be over, the future pol
lev of the United States Government
will be foreshadowed, and matters and
things will resume a prosperous con-
dton. If no trouble is had in the
inauguration of the next President.
and no radical change is made in the
tariff or in our foreign policy, capital
will again seek its accustomed chan,
nels, and this country will enter upon
an era Of great prosperity.
The general depression may there
fore be expected to continue for only
few months longer.

The Democratic party continues
to 60 from bad to worse in trying to
correct its plumbers. The selection of
Carlisle for speaker, with all that bis
selection implied, was about as bad az
could be. Now comes Pr otectionist
Payne as a kind of break water to the
tidal wave of fear that bad swept
through the Democratic party in con.
sequence of its Free,trade rashuess.
The choice Of Payne as senator from
Ohio is almost of as much natioal
consequence as the election of Carlisle
Payne's intimacy with Tilden, and the
possibility of PaYne's being made the
political heir of the head of the old
ticket, gives the Ohio Senator a prom.
inence whicE new senator does not
ordinarily reach at q single bound.
Viewed as an offset to Free trade
heresies, Payne might have assisted
the Democratic party to straddle the
tariff question again. But his use.
fnlness in this respect is more than
counterbalanced by the defeat of
Pendleton. The Democrats want no
civil service reformer or civil service
reform. They have forgotten the op.
pressed laborer and the greed of huge
corporations, two subjects which here
tOfore have weighed heavily on the
Democratic mind. Somehow or 9th.
er, in the Democratic party, the scum
will rise to the top.-Phila. Press.

candidate for U. S. Senator by vote
Of 48 for Payne, II for Ward and on

George was the fresh young man in
the Senate who really believed his
party meant civil service reform and
be figured as midwife at its bornin'.
The party evidently regards him as
too fresh, and what is worse, too green,
IN snpposing it means all it says, and
they have laid him on the shelf with
an emphasis which says palmer, yea,
much palmer than words, "Lie there !"
As the press of the party was bowling
like pack Of prairie wolves over the
corruption the civil service system
made possible, Senator PendletOn was
boahd as a Democrat to give his par
~ the benefit of the paternity of the
reform bill. He went in with all his
might and worked the measure through
the Senate. The result of the receut
nomination is his reward.

EX-SENATOR EATON says the agi-

session of Congress is senseless, and
goes on to give good reasons for the
opinion. Buckner is opposed to the
agitation this session because he wants
the party to win sure next year, and
this would array the business inter,

to it, because the business of the coun-
try has not yet recovered from the
