be to more solidly unite the north and
south In friendly and business relations.
During the entire period Of preparation
for the opening, no intimation hos been
made of any prejudice existing
against the enterprise in any part Of the
north. On the contrary the people of
the north have endeavored to convince
the southern people by their united Of
forts to contribute literally, that the past
is forgotten and that we are a Nation with
a big N. 1t is safe to say that there will
DO more visitors at the great show from

We have had all kinds of centennial
celeb ations, but the one in which the
ladies are most interested is tho second
centenary of the thimble, which has just
been celebrated at Amsterdam. The
first thimble wss made in October, 1854,
by a goldsmith, Van B~enschelton, whose
idea in the manufacture of the pretty
conceit was to protect the finger of his
lady love. The English were the first to
adopt the new invention.

Autobiography Legislation.

S~psingfeld Mass, Republican.
Some of the northwestern legislatures
are likely to do a bit of business In the
anti monopoly line .aAis winter. The low
price of wheat leads the farmer to think
of mis- wrongs, and he i~nclines to make a
stir about matters. Railroad freights are
generally high and In some cases extor.
~tionate cut there, and beyond that is the
elevator monopoly" A grain-buying
concern puts up little elevators at the
stations, gets special favors as to freight
and sometimes has an absolute monopoly
of the grain business on g railroad for
hundreds of mi.ss. Of course some ofrth8
men concerned in the road are like
ly to have a finger in the elevator pies:
and 80 the toiing farmer is left helpless;
he can take the price offered at his local
| elevator or let it alope-there is no, other
bayer for him. These abuses are felt
all through tho wheat growing region,
from Kansas to the Canadian line. but
are worst In Nebsaeka where the Union
Pacific controls all things, and 1t is there
that the anti monopoly folks are most &C.
tive and best organized. An appeal just
issued, said to represent a general move
ment of the grangers, opens in an express
sive way, thus: Farmers. Shall we suffer
the curse of railroad slavery forever
"Nill you not let your strength be felt
In the next legislatu-ef Are you
cowards2 Dare you not speak like men2'
Such things have been heard good
many times before aud very likely will bG
repeated a good many times more, but
they mean something. The farmers are
obviously at an immense disadvantage II
fighting railroads in Legislatures ant
courts, but yet they have the real powe
with them and do accomplish something
taking the years together. If the road
crowd too hard then comes a time, ii
every state, when all the lobbying ant
all the money they can give fails to ste
the corrective legislation.
