Fraudulent scheme IN Louisiana.

New YORK, August 25.-The
Sun is somewhat excited over a
| New Orlea dispatch which says
an enthusiastic Cleveland man is
hard to find in Louisiana, yet there
is a feeling on the part of the people
that the State Government will only
make show of holding an election,
that arrangements are perfected by
which the State will be declared for
Cleveland by $4,000 majority. even
if not ballot-box is opened or a
vote cast. The San thinks it not
impossible that this may be at
tempted to denounce such scheme.
The Sun says: We submit, in view
of this astounding intelligence from
Louisiana, that these Independent
Republican journals would do we'll
to make haste and declare that they
will have nothing to do with any such
proposed fraud in the election of
the next President. But however
intimate their relations to the in
fanny which installed Hayes as
President when Tllden had been
elected, they will not consent to an
other experiment Of the kind. The
same dispatch from which the above |
is taken says: IF the Republican
National Committee had wisdom |
and pluck enough to send men to
5aurd the polls on election day,
Louisiana would give $4,000 major
ty for Blaine. and choose five ont
If the six Congressman.

THE BAKING POWDER WAR.

The Royal Baking Powder Conn any is still making
enemies among those who manufacturing and selling
impure articles for evenng purposes land their name IS
egon and this fact shows that it is continuing its Wig
orous work in the interests of the public.
This Company set out some time ago to expose the
character and far possible to break up the sale of
adulterated baking powders Having found from an ex-
animation of number OF specmins procured from gro
GERS that they generally CT inferior character,
and many Of them actually poisonous, 1T brought the
matter before the public denounced the makers by name
in the press and 70 the health authorities.
The affair was speedily taken up by physicians
Boards Of HEALTH and Legislatures throughout the
try; chemists employed to make scientific tests OF
the various powders in the market and the Government
itself directed analyses to be made before it would pr
chase the supplies needed for amy, navy and Indian
uses
The result more tina n justified tie charges boldly
made by the Royal Company Not only were the ma
jorty of baking powders in the market found TO be
largely aduterated but many Of them were ascertaned
to contain lime alum and other poisonous ingredients
to such an extent to render them positively unsafe
for in human food The information spread through
out the country and created profound SENSATION AS
result many of these injurious mixtures were dIVen
out Of the market and the sale CT all OF them seriously
intere.yd with.
No occurrence of recent date has tCen lais aching
as this in its beneficial influence upon the pubic health
and TIE action Of the Royal Baking Powder Company
in the inauguration of such warfare and IN carrying
it forward with such important results, were universally
commented upon and appreciated. In making the
charges they did not hesitate to enter INTO competition
with every other baking powder IN tie country and 1t
public satisfaction that in al tie tests and anal Uses
made the Royal Baking Powder placed at the head
of the list and declared by Boards of Health and by
the Government chemists, Drs Mott and Love, to be
superior all others in strength, and absolutely pure
and free from all inferior substances.
In continuing this warfare against the aduitcra!ed
food, more particularly the alum, lime and otherwise
impure and inferior baking powders hch unsc upulous
manufacturers endeavoripg to force upon the market
in this locality, the Royal will undoubtedly meet with
the oldtme opposition and abuse. We are confident,
however that the public will appreciate as heretofore
both the object of the sop thief cry and the work of
the Royal Company in its attempts to protect and to
rid the market of these dangerous articles OF food

THE COMSTOCk MINES.
A LOCKER On Who Tells His Ex-
perience.

perience.
Ed. APPEAL-Dear Sir: As you,
journal is one of the few in the
State who has the independence anc
straight-forwardness to publish al
matters Of interest that come before
it, l wish to place before its reader,
= few facts concerning the great
Comstock lode.
Beginning at either end of the
lode, or still better, right at the
middle, and extending our exper-
fence over a period of four years, or
more, we are struck with the sub
lime GOODNESS of the managers, the
most gentle-mannered men that
ever levied an assessment. Indeed
our admiration is only divided with
the meek composure Of the suffer
ers. When strike is made in the
East the drift is very soon run
West and innocent stockholders
wait month after month, building
hopes on drift that might be run
clear to San Francisco and no one
the wiser.
The only men who are making
any money now are those who have
contracts to take out ore, pay the
company SO much ton and mill it
for the bullion that is in it. Now
I would like to ask if a mine can
be leased by private company
and be made to pay, why cannot
the mining company-who would
not have to pay any lease-also
make it pay? l tell you Mr.. Ed
itor, the public is firing of that
kind of imposition. The Comstock
has fair prospects and the people
know it. They have not lost con-
fdence in the mines but in the
management. They are willing to
bear their share of the expense Of
the mining, but they are loathe of
throwing money away.
Respectfully,
A LOoKER-ON IN THE CLOUDS.

Rcd-Haired Boys.

In recent issue of a daily paper APP
peared the following advertisement:
Wanted-A bright boy, with good
recommendation from former employ
er; red-haircd perferred. Inquire at
The advertisement caught the eye of
a reporter, and he wondered what
particular business could demand the
services of an authenticated youth.
Possibly he was wanted to illuminate
a show-window or to warm a small
office, but the reporter could arrive at
no satisfactory conclusion. Finally,
he resolved to 90 to the place and find
out, 50 he called at the number indica-
ted. 1t was over the door of State
street har-store, and whcr the repor-
ter saw the business sign his thoughts
required to "Ihe Rape of the Lock"
and he believed he had struck place
where red-headed boys We're hired and
induced afterward to part with their
hirsute crop in the interest of auburn
haired beauties whose crop of hair had
failed. Approaching the proprietor of
the place-a bald-headed mantle
reporter expressed his curiosity at the
advertisement he had seen and asked
if he might learn the particular desira-
bility Of red-haired boys in that bus
mess
"Wcll, sir" said the man with n
smile. Il have always found that red
haired boys are the smartest and most
energetic. They are proud and re-
spectful, and do not cut up like the or
binary errand boys
And you think it is due to the hue
of their hair?'
THAT has been my experience, and
| have no doubt that if people would
| notice the fact they would think as
do. In my factory the majority of the
gitls have red hair, and they 90 about
their work industriously and indulge
in no foolishness."
This little argument in favor of the
rcd-haired people should have its eff
feet, and hereafter the warm-headed
man or woman should always have
employment. - Chicago Tribuae.

The Boy Who Would Not Go to Bed.

You may think him Ounce,
But he begged that for once,
He might sit up all night or as long as he
pleased;
The nurse was in tears,
With her murmured MY dearsW
But only the louder and faster he tCaSCd.
Overhearing the din,
His father came in:
wish to sit up all night John?" he thought
fully cried:
You shall have your request
Till you've learned we know best.
Nurse can GO ! will stay at this naughty
boys side.
when two hours had passed.
John grew sleepy at last
And so tired that he feared he would fail
from his chair;
But, attempting TO 60
Heard his fathers stern "No!'
Keep your seat nj the table. Your place, sir,
is there"
Oh! how slow ticks the clock,
With its dickory dock
dor his father insists he should keep wide
awake.
Till quite humbly he said
May please go TO bed2
I've found you were right and, made mis-
take"
His father said yes;
And now you can guess
If ever that boy did the same thing again,
No sermon could preach,
No punishment teach,
lesson more clearly than he learned it then.
Now, boys, when you're told
That it's bed time, don't scold
And say that you feel just like keeping
awake;
Sitting up all the night
Isn't such a delight,
inst try it for once, and you'll own your
mistake.
