LITERARY NOTES.

.IErrEFS. SENTENCES AND MANNERS by Lord
Chesterfield. Published by Putnam Co.
II seems like a work of superaTogatlon
at this day to say anything about the let
tiers OF Lord Chesterfield. They have been
characterized as models of style, taste and
classical finish. They have been COM
mended and recommended by almost every
parent in the land who wished his sou to
become what we term = polished gentle
man. Their influence certainly would be
to polish, and when that Is said all Is SAID.
Lord Chesterfield aimed to make his son
"a finished, polished statue rather h 4 a
Trina >OUI His estimate of women con
dennis him in the estimation Of every true
husband aud son. He says: "A man OF
sense only tritles with them, humOrs and
tlatters them; but he neither COnsults them
about, nor trusts them with serious matters
though he often makes them believe that
he does both. 1t is absolutely necessary to
manage, please and tattsr them He
recommends his sou 10 pretend to some
religion; for putting moral virtues ~ the
highest, and religion at the lowest, religion
must still be allowed to he a collateral
security, ut least 20 virtue; and every prU-
dent man will sooner trust to two securi-
ties than one
But Notwithstanding these blemishes,
the letters are worthy Il careful perusal by
any one who aims NJ a certain ease OF
manner, q knowledge of tie world, q re-
fneuent which stamps the gentleman.
And in a republic where everyone is the
peer OF h fellow, why should we not aim
~ refining politcness and all that goes to
make thorough good bTeediag, The book
is a model Of topography, handsomely
houui, and is tor sale at Stanton < Dayeu-
ports.

WINGS AND STlNGs.

This is the airy, stinging title of
another sprightly amusing book
by Palmer Cox. 1t is one of the
Queer People series, and similar
to its companion paws and
Claws" of which we told you
recently. This is the funniest and
brightest books for youngsters we
have every seen. The illustrations
are splendid and will make the
boys and girls roar with laughter.
The Boston Budget, says: "as a
holiday book nothing could be
more appropriate, since nothing
could confer greater pleasure
upon the little ones" The Nat
ional Republican says: Every
page is picture and all the text
music, a fountain of fun, never
ceasing. 1t will make your eyes
blaze" 1t will certainly be
wonderfully popular. 1t is pub
lished by Messrs. Hubbard Bros,
of Philadelphia, Chicago, and
Kansas City, to whom persons
desiring a copy or an agency
should apply.

For Governor the total are:
Thirty Miles Disappear.

Thirty miles of country is a big
thing to disappear, but this dis
tanee has been dropped out be-
tween Kansas City and Chicago
How it happened is thus figured
out. The Chicago, Santa Fe Cal
lfornia Railway is completed be-
tween Kansas City and Chicago,
and the distance between the two
cities is only 45S miles measuring
from Union Depot. Kansas CITY,
to Dearborn Station, Chicago.
This is exactly thirty miles less
than by any of the old lines, so
you have TO travel thirty miles less,
your freight has to be hauled thir-
ty miles less, and practically the
Santa Fe has made thirty miles
disappear. a few years at this rate
and Kansas will be in New Eng
land.

Vesti bule Ira ins TO Chicago.

The Vestibule train is new
factor in western railroad trans
portation. 1t is claimed for these
trains that on account of their be-
ing connected by steel hoods all
danger of telescoping in case
of accident is removed, the train
being practically one long car. 1t
is certain that the oscillation of
the cars is greatly reduced, and it
is also certain that the vestibule
trains afford the greatest comfort
yet known to travellers. The adop-
ton of this style of train by the
Chicago, Santa Fe & California
railway between Kansas City and
Chicago is a strong bid for the
passenger trafic between the West
and Chicago. This new road is in
many particulars ahead of any of
its Older competitors, and will un-
doubtedly be the popular road to
Chicago.

Since the result of the election
became known, no one has stop
ped to inquire what will be the
policy of the next administration.
While it true that a great po-
litical change has taken place, it
is also true that the change has
only returned the party to power
that for nearly a quarter century
guided the ship of state with
skillful and unerring hand over
every difficulty.
No country has ever been pros
porous when the party in power
had not the confidence of the peo-
pie. That the Republican party
has this confidence cannot for a
moment be doubted, for it is re-
memebered that the best financial
system ever known was developed
by its legislation, and under its
fostering care our country became
the most prosperous nation in the
world.
The surplus causes no uneasi-
ness in any quarter, as the party
coming into power has always met
every emergency of the country
when in full control of the govern
ment, and if it is found necessary
to reduce the surplus, it will be
done without detrime mt to any
American industry.
Without criticising or impeach-
ing any previous administration
of our government, it is safe to say
that the craftsmanship of the next
four years will be of a purer and
more exalted character than ever
before.
The masses are thinking and in
this day of steam and electricity
the farmer and the blacksmith de-
tect an error of craftsmanship al
most as readily as the astute poll
tician.
When the masses think the
leaders are put to the severest
test, and with the watchful eye of
an intelligent public ever upon
them, there need be no fear of
any serious blunder whatever par
ty may be in power. And this is
true in manifold sense of the
great party that for twenty-four
years withstood every assault up
on its integrity, and has again tax
en- the reins of government at the
opportune moment, when the ex-
ercise of wisdom and patri otism
will more than duplicate its plevi-
Gus brilliant record of achieve
ments. and will guarantee to our
nation the most prosperous period
of its existence.
