EX-GOV. PORTER WABASH.

WABASH Ind, Sept. 12-EX-Gov. Porter
this afternoon opened the campaign for
the Republicans in this city in a telling
speech Gov. Porter began his address by
reviewing the history of the Republican
party from its birth to the present. He
spoke of its many glorious achieve
ments, and then launched out
into discussion of the tariff
question, incidentally ridiculing the
Democratic bugaboo of a demoraliZiDg
surplus Governor Porter dwelt at length
upon the prosperity which the country had
enjoyed during the twenty yaars succeed
ing the close of the war; and attributed it
entirely to the Republican protective
policy which had fostered manufacture
ing industries while Welding large rev
enues TO foot the expenses OF. the govern
ment.
Gov. Porter said that while the Demo
critic party was found opposing Republi-
can legislation OF every kind. that it never
failed 10 come forward with n cordial
endorsement of the same when it was
found to operate successfully.
address, George w. Harvey, a working
man who had made the tariff question an
especial study, delivered a vigorous pro-
lection argument from the standpoint of a
laboring man. 1t was genuine old-time
Republican love feast and was a fitting
opening OF what promises to be the live
lest campaign ever fought by the Repub-
licaus of Wabash county.

WACO, Tex. Sept. l2.-The new federal
court house and poStoffice at Waco is in a
bad condition. The beautiful ceilings and
fine interior is being ruined by leakage
which has caused considerable discussion
and censure on the parties who had the
work in charge, but the blame really belongs
to the treasury department at Wash

The interior woodwork is also defective,
and the plumbing is incomplete. The

months, will admit gallons of water
on the floor this winter. Great disgust is
showered on Congressman Mills by the
bushes men of this city for his neglect Of
the matter, and for using his influence to
secure free delivery for Corsicana, his
home. which has about 1000 inhabitants,
while Waco, with $1,000 inhabitants, and
turns in four times as much revenue to
the postoffice department, is denied that

importuned to look after the matter, but
has paid no attention to it.

SKILL OF THE HANDS.
The Wonderful Degree of Accuracy I
Which They Can Be Trained.

The Wonderful Degree of Accuracy to
Which They Can Be Trained.
We hear great deal about the wonderful
precision and accuracy of machinery in
these days. and of course it is wonderful; but
the degree of accuracy to which the human
hand can be trained is equally wonderful
Playing cards are required to be cut with
the sides quite parallel to each other, because
If pack be trimmed by the machine slightly
wider at one end than the other, and they be-
come turned ''end to end" in dealing, the ex-
cess in width Of some cards over others at the
end of the pack win be double the variation
in any one card, which would facilitate
cheating, very minute variation being per-
ceptible. The men who test these cards for
this make calipers of their finger and thumb
and by passing them along from one end to
the other detect a difference in width be-
tween the two ends which it is difficult to
measure by any other means
There are men employed in factories where
dried yeast is made whose business it is to
put the yeast into packages weighing GER
tain amount each. 1t is on a table in front
OF them in large plastic mass, and there are
the scales for weighing it But the men do
not use the scales They simply separate
from the mass with their hands lump Of it
and put it UP, and you may choose at ran
dom and put it on the scales, and it will
weigh exactly the right amount, the scales
beam just balancing.
Where large numbers of eggs are handled
and shipped to market there is a process
known as "candleing" eggs, which consists
in taking them up in the hands usually two
eggs IN each hand at a time), and holding
them up before a lighted candle The light
Shining through them reveals to the prac-
ticed eye the exact condition of the contents.
But some of the men soon get SO that they
do not need to use the candle, the mere con-
tact of their hands with the shells denoting
the condition Of the egg just as infallibly
and much more quickly. And they distin-
guish in that way not merely eggs which are
decidedly bad, but those which are Just
barely beginning TO loss their freshness.
Here are three different ways in which ex-
treme skill of the hands is shown by persist
emit training: First, in detecting slight diff
ferences in magnitude; second, in weight;
and, lastly, in texture or character of sur

LIQUOR DEALERS, BANQUET.

NEW YORK, Sept IA banquet was
given the liquor delegates, whose conven-
ton has just closed, by the Wine and
Spirit Traders society, of this city tonight.
About 300 covers were laid. Among the
speakers was Hon. Henry Watterson, who
spoke of manhood. morality and law,
the triple foundation of all good
government" He thought. the world
was too much governed. He said that
prohibition was an attempt to abolish
manhood by a statue instead of by private
virtue. He considered it both wicked and
foolish. Manhood and morality which
stand as faithful sentinels to good gov
eminent cannot be fabricated by law.
