THE SILVER QUESTION.

Silver is growing in popular favor at
the East. It was made an issue in many
of the States at the recent election. The
Knights of Labor in their convention at
Richmond resolved in favor of it. Com
menting on the attitude of political par
ties regarding it, the Silver State says;
"The Democrats and Republicans OF
California and Massachusetts, made silver
an issue in the recent election. In Mass
achusetts the Republican platform de-
nounced Congress for not suspending sill
YER coinage, while the Democrats ad'
vocated the coinage of both gold and
silver, the money of the Constitution.
In California the Republicans struck a
silver plank from their platform, and the
Democrats had a free coinage plank In
theirs. To make the issue more direct,
the Republicans renominated Mckenna
and FELTON,, two members of the present
House of Representatives, who voted
last Spring against the Bland Free Coin
age bill. Now the election returns show
that four Democrats, Morse, Russell,
Collins and Burnett, are elected in Mass
achusetts on a silver platform, while Nc
Kenna and FELTON,, Republicans, are
elected in California, notwithstanding
their opposition to free coinage. 1t is
true that Felton's majority does not ex-
coed one hundred, and that it is alleged
that the returns were tempered with to
secure that majority, but had the Repub-
licans OF his district been in favor of the
free coinage of silver they would have
buried him SO deep that even a Louisi-
ana returning Board could not count
him in.
eff the election of Congressman in
California and Massachusetts,, where the
attitude of the parties on the silver
question was we'll defined, has any signiG
canoe whstever, it is that the people Of
Massachusetts, are better friends of silver
than those OF Felton's and McKenna's
districts in California"

CLEVELAND AND CARLISLE.

The SENTINEL predicts thus early that
the next Democratic National ticket will
be Cleveland and Carlisle. Since the
late elections the Eastern papers are
very generally discussing President
Cleveland for reelection, and some, OIL
course. predictip9 success for him, and
others sure defeat. How it may all re.
suit we need not now speculate about,
but it certainly looks as though Cleve.
land and Blaine were to be the opposing
candidates again for the first place. The
tariff will undoubtedly figure more con-
s%picuously in the next national contest
than it has for many years in a Presi.
Dental election. The Boston Herald has
this paragraph, which is a fair estimate
of what is being said by conservative
papers in the East:
"The elections that are just over
point to the popularity of President
Cleveland with the people, a popularity
that has saved his party against the
almost inevitable reverses that attend
the possession of the Presidency. They
poin. to him as an available candidate to
lead it two years hence. But the cleo.
tion of that time must divide upon the
tariff question. This is an issue that
will not longer down at the bidding of
politicians.

THE NEW PARTY IN POLITICS

1t is announced with authority that
the Knights of Labor will henceforth
form a political party, to be called the
Progressive Democracy. The principles
which this party has announced so far,
are two:
I. Land-"We hold that the value
which attaches to the surface of the
earth by reason of the growth of popu.
lation belongs to society at large, and
we propose, therefore, to abolish all tax.
alton upon buildings. Improvements, and
all other things of human production,
and by taxation on the value of land
alone, to provide for purposes of common
necessity and benefit. In this way we
propose to make it Improbable for mo.
nopolizers to hold lands, mines, forests,
or city lots which they are not putting
to use."
II. State Ownership and Manage.
ment of Railroads and Telegraphs-"We
declare war on that system which hands
over the public works to corporate con.
troll, and permits such benefcient agen'
cies as the railroad and telegraph to be
made the mean of robbing the producer
and of enabling railroad kings and stock
gamblers to throttle business and dictate

The artichoke. which originally came
from Barbary, is not a botanical species,
but a variety of the thistle, which grows
spontaneously all along the African
coast of the Mediterranean from Morocco
to Palestine. 1t is now cultivated ex-
tensively in France, where those which
come from Brittany and Algeria are the
species most highly esteemed. Even of
these there are many varieties. such as
the Camus artichoke of Brittany, the
bronzed artichoke of Roscoff, the big
green artichoke of Laon and the violet
artichoke of Provence. There are also
varieties which come from Italy. Spain,
India and Canada, to say nothing of the
Jerusalem artichoke, famous for the
size of its leaves.
In the south of France, when the crop
is abundant, the heads are carefully
picked of all their leaves and the hearts
dried IN the sun are put up in sacks and
stored away for winter use. These
hearts when boiled in water, or in a rich
beef broth, become soft and recover their
form, color and flavor. They are then
taken from the pot, the water and broth
strained away, the center is filled with
forced meat and they are then either
fried oil baked. The heads with their
pale green, long, narrow and pointed
caves clustered round the top of a tall
stalk give the plant a very elegant APP
pearance. Each head. if allowed to ma
ture, bears a purple, violet flower, which
give a great richness of color to a field

Until Daguerre made his discovery the
wealthy had their miniatures painted on
ivory, but the cheaper p%ortraiture
invented by Silhouette was very COM
mon. Profile cutters, as they were
called, were found in all cities and large
towns, while others went about the coun-
try from house to house. so that it was
rare to find a sitting-room in any decent
house hat did not boast of n framed
silhouette, N looking to the right and
the other to the left. There were diff
feTent ways of arriving at the same
result, but the work was chiefly done by
cutting the profile out of white paper,
which was backed by a piece of black
silk or black paper neatly mounted.
To insure success it was necessary to
have a steady hand and a correct eye;
with these qualities one could cut a like
ness in a few seconds. There was also
several mechanical contrivances for pro-
ducing silhouettes, n of which Sam
Weller doubtless had in his minds eye
when, in indicting his valentine to Mary,
he likened the growth of his love in its
rapid operations to the "profeel ma
chine" which does finish a portrait

up by, and all in two minutes and a

In my vacation rambles / | happened in
the town of Eastport, Me. 1t is n fish
ing port, as any n would know by the
smell, which stays with you all the
lille you are there and comes home
with you. 1t is the kind of smell you
can cut with a knife. but there is money
in it. There are what they call pomace
mills there, which take the heads and
refuse of herring and press oil out of
them. The remainder of the herring is
made into sardines. Eastport is the
great "sardine' packing place of this
country. They catch herring in weirs.
/ was told by one man that he had
taken 100 ~hogsheads of herring out of
his weir in one night. He got 81 for a
hogshead for them.
The behring's power Of propagation is
marvellous. They are scooped out of the
weirs like sand and decapitated by the
billion. By canning and smoking in
summer and freezing in the winter
enough herring are preserved in that
vicinity almost to fill the bed of the
East river between the bridge piers if
the water was drained out. And yet
the schools each year seem as large as
ever. A dealer told me that he saw no
signs of the herring giving out. The
herring is the %silliest of fish. He goes
into a weir through a wide door. and
might easily go out through the same
opening. Once inside, however, he sw inns
around and around in circles, and is
frightened by the waving of the weir
brush in the water from approaching
the sides. So he stays in and is lost

THE WIT OF CHILDREN.

How They Contribute to the Literature

Unwittingly, children are largely on
tributing to the literature of the day.
Their original sayings and the thor
oughly fresh views they take of life and
our h~ackneyed manner afford the
newspapers and other ephermal publica-
tons n special fund of humor. The
wisdom of their drolleries. the quaint
ness of their observations. can scarcely
be improved upon by that made to Or
der wit which sometimes has to do duty
for the baby's. Babes and sucklings are
natural logicians. just as they are hui
man parrots, and the combination rem
ders them more entertaining than RI

child speaks, his instructive or inherited
sinfulness make him an imp, but an imp

Based upon the fact that a small
quantity of lime water added to hard
water softens it by precipitating the

duces the hardness of the Henley water

is pronounced most useful. easily

Many persons, though well acquainted
with flowers, are of the changes
through which the Seeding tulip passes.
1t is four or five years before it flowers,
then it takes on the self-colored or
breeder form; but in the breeder state it
is easy to class it with the bizarres, roses
or byblnmens, according as it may be-
long to either of these three divisions.
Then, at the expiration or sometimes one
or two years up to six or seven years, it
breaks into its true character. and be-
comes what is termed "rectified." Why
the tulip should be an exception to the
universal law observed in Seeding flow
ers, and have an almost exceptionally
intermediate state, passeth knowledge.
The practical florist asks of the botanist
the why and wherefor of this, and no
reply is forthcoming. 1t is said that in
the whole range and history
OF plants there is no analogy to this
phenomenon.-Vick's Magazine.
