As a rule, Stevens county has good
wagon roads and very respectable
bridges. The latter might be I'M
proved, and we presume will be In
the near future. But they now CONF
pare favorably with those ofadj0ining
counties SO 1t may be said 40 regards
schools and churches. In referring
to these evidences Of civilization and
progress, the Northwestern Agricul-
turist says: "The best class ofsettlers
look for good school-houses, good
churches, thrifty looking farms and
good roads. This latter feature Of Q
country Is of more Importance than
1t Is generally esteemed. Counties
will vote thousands to new railroad
when an appropriation OF rs many
hundreds to good wagon roads and
bridges would be looked upon as an
outrageous extravagance, and yet 1t
is az important to have q good road
over which to haul produce to q
seasonable market, as 1t 10 to have q
railroad to take 1t to the consumer.
Good roads are comfort always and
when they are made az easily as in
the Northwest there is no good excuse
for tolerating poor Ones"

Insincerity of Platforms.

The reason the people have so little re
spect for party platforms is that they sell
dom express the truth As a general thing
they are compromises, which are adopted to
bridge over party differences. The makers
of them are apparently glad to subscribe to
anything for the sake Of harmony, and it is
even possible that they are foolish enough
to think that they deceive the people. As
matter of fact the people are fully as intel
ligent as their representatives, and regard
dishonest work. if not with open dis
approval, at least with silent contempt.
The platform adopted by the Louisiana
Democrats at Baton Rouge the other day is
being variously commented upon by the
Louisiana press. For many weeks prior to
the meeting of the State convention the
supporters of Gen. Nichols for the nomina-
ton for Governor charged that the present
administration was unworthy Of the conf
dence of the people, that it was run by rings
and that it was generally a bad smelling
affair Did they mean what they saidt
They succeeded in nominating Gen. Mich
oils, and then adopted a platform which
contained the following Endorsement of the
present State administration: 1--WE also in
dorse the administration of Samuel Douglas
McEnery as a recognition of the eminent
services to the State of that faithful public
servant"
If this extract from the platform is sin
cere expression of the sentiment of the con-
vention, what must be thought of the news
papers and stump speakers who, for many
weeks, spared no effort to make the people Of
Louisiana believe that Gov. McEnery was a
bad man. an unfaithful public servant, and
wholly unworthy of public confidence
And, if the Nichols supporters really be
lieved what they alleged against Gov. Meme
ry and his administration can it be said that
the platform contained an honest expression
of the sentiment of the convention with re
gard to Gov. McEnerys administration
Why should political conventions stultify
themselves, and why should they attempt to
deceive the people:

Mrs. Cleveland's Ideas About Sunday
From the Netr York World


Mrs Cleveland has some good old fashioned
ideas about Sunday and does everything in her
power to lessen the work of the servants on that
day. Luncheon at the White House is served
early and is cold, and the servants have all the
afternoon and evening to themselves, the Pres
ident aud his wife usually dining at their country
house on that day. During the summer two
cOlOred women prepare all their meals, but
when the season for state dinners begins a
French chef assumes the reins of government
in the kitchen. Mrs Cleveland is much beloved
by all the domestics, who have become attached
to her by the same frank, pleasant manners
which have won her friends among all classes
When she came home from her long journey in
the West and South she went into the servants
department of the establishment and received
quite an ovation from the domestics, for
each of whom she had a CHEEKY salutation
and whose names and faces she remem-
bers with the same accuracy which has helped
her so greatly in her social duties wife of the
President where She is called on to recolleCt q
prodigiouS number OF persons she has met very
casually. Her personal friends she receives
very informally in the morning in her own
sitting room. She wears great deal on such
occasions a morning gown Of blue-gray plush,
exactly the color of her eyes, whose tiutS bring
out in high relief the healthy freshness of her
skin. When she and the President are alone or
are entertaining informally they use private
dining room which is one of the hdndSOmest in
the house and has none of that hotel-like stiff
ness which makes the state chambers so I'm
homelike Mrs. Hayes was very fond of this
room and during her regime she had very
handsome set of carved mahogany made for it,
consisting of sdeboard buffet and side table
The dining table is round. This room is lighted
entirely from the sides instead of from above,
the illumination all coming from brackets hold
ing pale rose coored shades. Side light is al
ways more becoming than That from above, and
Mrs. Cleveland finds her guests look very charm
ing in this level, pale-rose radiance. The side
board is adorned with beautiful glass and some
very fine gold and silver plate, part Of it dating
from the Monroe administration. Among these
are two very handsome soup tureens, tea and
coffee mns and pair of tall crystal and silver
claret jugs The forks and spoons are of gold
and was ordered by Van Buren,. The handsom-
est china were ordered by Mrs Grant and Mrs
Hayes. There is a superb set that the latter had
made from special designs. All Mrs. Cleve-
lands wedding presents which took the shape of
household goods are out at Oak View. except
such things as she needs for personal daily use
which the White House stores do not furnish.

The Sunday Question in Jacksonville.

The Sunday Question in Jacksonville.
The ministers Of Jacksonville have en-
tered protest against opening the Sub
Tropical Exposition in that city on Sun
days, and in their protest they state some
very good reasons for their course. No
doubt good many people Of Jacksonville
agree with the views which they express,
but it is doubtful if majority, or even
respectable minority. do. II is true that
there Is no necessity for opening the expo
-itlou on Sundays but the opening of 1t on
those days will accommodate a great many
people. Doubtless there are hundreds OF
working people in and about jacksonville
whose only leisure day il Sunday. II they
visit the exposition on any other day they
viii have to make sacrifices they cannot
very well afford.
OF course there is no more harm in visit
ing the exposition on Sunday than there Is
in taking a stroll IN the woods, on the beach
or through the streets Of city, but the
opening Of such an attractive place on that
day may tend TO divert the minds Of the
people from their religious duties, and may
even cause some TO regard the Sabbath as
to do, This probably is what the protest
ing ministers fear. and no fault can be
found with them for taking steps to guard
against this danger.
1t is probable, however that tho manage
ment Of the exposition will take into con-
sideration the question whether or not the
number benefited by Sunday opening will
not be vastly greater than that likely TO
suffer harm and il they do they will doubt
less decide in favor Of Sunday opening.
Perhaps a compromise might be agreed
upon that would be satisfactory to every
body If the exposition were closed during
the morning services III the churches and
opened in the afternoons the ministers might
not insist upon their protest. An arrange
ment of that kind would be an acknowledge
nent of the sacred character Of the day and
would not interfere with divine worship.
