We would like to ask those Re-
publicans and the few Democrats
who favor the suspension of the
coinage of silver, this question: If
there should be no more silver coin
ed between this and 1891, at which
time we believe a large amount of
national bonds fall due and must be
paid, if in so doing we are not les
sening our facilities for paving our
debts to the extent of every dollar
whose coinage is thus prevented or
suspended? The advocates of the
continued coinage of silver have
the following to say concerning the
payments of bonds exclusively in
gold: "To this proposition, that
there now exists or ever have existed
under our constitution, obligations
specifically payable IN gold, silver
men feel it their solemn duty to en-
ter their most emphatic dissent at the
very outset of the discussion of the
question. No such obligation exists
or ever did exist. !"

! soft as soft can be, but smooth with
al, without any tendency TO rnmpIe

warmth, this is comfort. The room
too should be moderately warm; no

Nay, for your bugbear cold steps in

wonder that when baby wakes up it
is peevish and fretful.
Your bugbear cold is the best
friend the tailor has, for even young
men wear double the weight of clothes
on winters day that they ought to.
They sweat themselves in conse-
quenee, so cold, the foe steps in and
takes many life.
Overcoats, III my opinion, should
never be worn except while riding
by rail, or driving, or when standing
about in a iraught then they can not
be too thick and cosy. If worn at
all when walking, they should be
very thin. Very light waterproofs
should be worn when walking in win
ter-worn over the arm mean, and
never put on except when il is rain
ing. But the warmer the socks the
better, and the shoes ought to be
moderately strong and thick, for
many an ailment is caught from
standing about on cold damp ground.
Damp Is much more to be dreaded
than cold, but even this should not
be made bugbear; i would rather
have damp inner clothing than a
damp coat; the underclothing
indeed of everyone who perspires
freely and easily, is seldom, if ever
free from damp. When 1 was new

hard to discriminate as to which
state makes the best exhibit where
there is so much to admire. The
only way is to visit every one for
him or herself.
There has been lots of discomfort
among the exhibitors ever since the
exposition opened, on account of the
lack of systematic organization and
courteous accommodation on the
part of few officials who make it
their business, seemingly, to detain,
annoy and antagonize exhibitors and
their assistants. A serious affair
came near resulting last week by the
withdrawal of temporary passes and
neglect of issuing permanent ones;
whereby patience ceased, and the
crowd having become indignant, on
being refused admittance through the
main entrance, surged their way in,
several hundred strong; then called
a meeting to denounce the exposition
management and agreed to cover
their exhibits and refuse to act In
conjunction with then until satisfac-
tory permanent arrangements were
made. All the city papers, with the
exception of the Times-Demecrat,
the exposition managements' organ,
gave a plain reasonable discussion
of the trouble, siding with the exhib-
ltors, and gave the public impress
sions and expressions in regard
thereto, while the "organ" gave an
'soffieial'' say about it. However
all differences were adjusted during
the week.

How to Escape Colds.

Draft Horses-z0 Years Experience.

q
A. S. Chamberlain, for 40 years
proprietor of the Bulls Head sta
hles, New York city. in reference to
the values of different breeds Of
draft horses, said:
81 keep exchange and sale stables
for horses. Don't deahon my owu
account to any extent, All classes
of horses amounting to several thous-
ands annually come to my stables
from all sections of the country. 4
large number of these are draft
horses from the different breeds, the
Clydesdales, the French horses called
Percherons or Normans, the English
and Belgian. There seems to be 9
larger demand for French horses
than any other breed.
"Some years ago we used to get 8
great many horses from Upper Cana
da. These were ClydesdaIes and
would weigh from 400 to 1900
pounds, but they did not seem 20
answer the purpose; as general
thing their feet were thin-shelled and
fiat. and being heavy horses their
feet would become sore and would
not stand the pavements. The
French horses have gooa feet and
stand the payements much better
than the Clydesdaies. That is the
reason they sell better.
81 would advise the farmers and
breeders who are breeding horses to
sell on the New York Market for
draft purposes to breed from the
French horses in preference to all
others. Chicago Tribune

One of the most noted personages
visiting the south and the exposition
yet, was the Vice-president-elect
Hendricks. This eminent states
man was accorded all the honors due
one of such distinction without over
doing the matter.
With the machinery now running
smoothly, though with little oil, it is
hoped that congress will come to the
rescue in substantial (Which means
financially manner. Nothing sue
ceeds like success, and if the expo
sition, which as fair is a success,
fails it will only be for lack of funds
to keep it up. The running expen-
ses must be over $4,000 day. A
very important committee was sent
to Washinton to present the case be-
fore congress.
The lake plat within the grounds
has been completed and filled with
water, and the boat house adjoining
to represent life saving station con-
tains the usual material for such SER
vice. So the pubic from this can
get very good idea OF the uses and
benefits of this branch of the United
States service. A beautiful green
isle attracts the eye, while the little
boats sail around, making quite a
nautical craft.
Though the articles exhibited by
the states and territories have been
in good shape for some time, centin-
ued additions have been made from
day to day, keeping up a kind of
competition that has been conducive
of much benefit to th< public and the

WASHINGTON TERRITORY.

This extreme northwest domain
which is rich in timbers, fish, miner
ais and agriculture, under the guild
ance and direction of Commissioner
Sharpstein would have been one of
the most attractive apartments in the

governor sending lot of animated y
fossils, preachers and women to en-
joy winter visit, help disburse the
little money given by the general
government, Mr.. Sharpstein wisely
stepped out of the way. The result
is Washington makes a ridiculous
appearance, and is the laughing
stock of the public. Far better had
