whiskey for different political
creeds. The Republicans want

The State Capitol building has
been suffering from a scarcity oil
| water during the last two weeks.
Mat,ers'are growing worse and
| worse and ii the water famine keep.
up the beautiful lawns about the
Capitol will SON be dried up.
There is not water enough up
stairs to wash in or drink and the
accum ulaton in the water closet
not being carried away by water is
making the lower part of the build
ing very offensive.
The Orphans Home which divi-
des the water with the State Capt.
toll is also short and will lose valu-
able crops.
There is still two hot months ard
no likelihood OF securing any water
for the State.
This present state OF affairs arises
from a foolish economy on the wat
er question.
1t was proposed to sink an arte-
sian we'll attie Prison by convict Dor
1000 feet deep for the benefit of the
State, but tine economists fought
and downed the bill, as they fight
everything that would improve the
country.
The sum of 10000 was appro-
priated as a bounty to encourage
artesian we'll boring, but the re-
strictions were so numerous that
over 50 900 of the money isstill there
untouched.
The State Capitol Is = good deal
nearer Marlette Lake than Virginia !
City and why cannot the Capitol
be furnished with water
from the pipe that runs within two !,
and q half miles Of this city?

1t was very affecting scene and
Grover pulling ont q red Bandana,

At this point the feelings of the

Is Against Free Trade.
New YORK, July 25th.-Alexan-
der Agar, thirty years Democrat
and head OF large stationery bust
ness in William street in this city,
cannot support Cleveland.
The reason he gives is Cleve-
lands message and Mills bill. He
says under the high tariff ia 1888
his receipts from imported paper
were $IS,406 81. In 1887, after
the tariff had been reduced to 10
per cent, the receipts were sweiled
to $242,2l7 27.
That meant shat $o22 900 worth
of paper had come into the country
from Norway in excess of what had
come in under higher tariff. In
Norway the pay of women in
paper mills is 5 cents per day and
that of men %. Under free trade
We would have to compete with the
NORWAY labor.
