Saturday Weddings.
From the Boston Advertiser.

BOstOu ADVERTISER.
Saturday used to be considered unlucky for mar.
riages. Even che working Glass; who might on
many accounts, md that q more convenient day,
or rather evening, On which TO hold wedding,
eschewed II through dread OF nl.luck. No one but
the plantation darkies used TO matrimonially
utilize II at all. But OF late wealth and fashion
have favored Il, and this June II has almost be-
come the fashionable day. The poor look on, per
maps, 10 mark how these fashionable marriages
turn out-and doubtless feeling the rich can AFFORD
misortun better than themselves-and II they
turn out well, Saturday may become the popular
Gay all round. Perhaps another generation may
become daring enough TO try Friday.

possessed AL ,047 sheep. The wool clip
of the year 1884 was 2,289, 430 pounds,
valued, in round numbers, at 5000, 600.
Number of sheep slaughtered, or sold
for slaughter, that year, 116, 765. There
has been marked increase in the num-
Der of sheep since the last census was
compiled. Editor Wallace, of the Home
stead, estimates that at the present time
Iowa farmers have over q half million
sheep; that the wool clip of this year
will bring but little short of 81 ,000, 900,
and that the total yield from wool and
mutton will not fall short of 81, 500, 900.
This is remarkably fine showing, in
view of the fact that the State is new,
and that sheep can only be successfully
and probably kept on well-fenced farms.
There are three deadly enemies to sheep
husbandry in this country, viz: wolves,
dogs, and the Democratic party In
Iowa, by the payment of liberal boun-
ty, the wolf has become a well-nigh ex-
tinct species; the dogs are taxed to pay
for the sheep slaughtered by the canine
race; and next November we shall slay
and skin the worst of all enemies, Demo-
cratic free trade. Then the well-kept
focks of Iowa will not run and hide
whenever they see a Democratic editor
from Omaha travelling across the state.
No; Iowa is not becoming democratic
to any alarming extent. The farmers
quite thoroughly understand the whole
question at issue, and their Republican
ism is all wool and yard wide.-Des

FalsehOOd and Forgery,

Some unscrupulOuS free-trade advo-
cate has printed on colored cards for
general circulation spurious tables of ly-
ing statistics, relating to labor, wages
and production, and full of false infer
ences where the figures are not false.
For instance, it alleges that wages of
"mule spinners" in cotton mills are 81 81
per day in England and $1.32 in New
York. These ''spinners'' are women,
and their wages in England are 80 cents
a day. In New York they receive 81 a
day. The card says that "wool-sorters'
are paid S1.20 a day in England and in
New Jersey so cents a day. In England
wool-sorters get $3.50 week, and they
get S14 a week in New York. 1t saws
that the ''labor" in barrel of salt is Il
cents, and the tariff is 81 cents, the fact
being that the cost of the salt is all la
Dor, from boring the salt wells to the
cooperage on the barrel that contains it.
These lies are numerous, and they are
also gross and scandafous. Finally, on
the bottom of the second page of the
card is false and lying alleged quota
ton of three lines printed in coarse type,
and credited to the Chicago EVENING
Journal, May Is, 1885, SO as to make 1t
appear that the entire array of faIacious
statements and falsehoods were copied
f N this paper. These cards, which
are false in most respects and IL part a
shameless forgery, must have been
printed by the thousand and scattered
broadcast, as several copies have reached
US. We wish the Republican press
would call attention to this sneaking
free-trade trick and expose it.-ChicdgO
