letters from the Russian Minister Of the
Interior and other high officials Mr.. Ken

prisons, convict barges and hospitals, and
travelling with chained exiles along the
great Siberian road. He made the intimate
personal acquaintance Of more than three
hundred exiled "liberalsn and Nihilists,
many of whom wrote out their histories tot

this searching investigation, were far re-

Chicago Notes.

Throughout the entire Nation, the
thoughts Of voters irrespective of party
are turning Chicagoward with curiosity
which has very diverse motives in the in
dividual members of the body polite.
The Republican looks forward with hope
to his national party convention, to be
held in June in Chicago's latest marvel
the great Auditorium building. The
Democrat, sure that President Cleve=
land will be nominated at the st. Louis
convention also has all his interest cen
tered in the convention of his opponents.
In Chicago, the rush of business, the ris-
ing wheat market, and the latest victory
of our baseball nine, all give place to
discussions regarding Blaine's sincerity
in declining to be candidate, or the
possibility of Gresham, Depew or Sher-
man, being nominated. The Presiden-
tial year is asserting its quadrennial abb
sorption of mems thoughts, and all other
things will soon give precedence to
party enthusiasm.
chicago has a peculiar interest In the
Republican convention; not because it is
to be held in our city, for we are quite
accustomed to entertaining the repre-
sentatives of both parties; but because
Chicago is now practically the home Of
Judge Gresham, and because a Chicago
district was the first to instruct its dele
gates to vote for him. Your readers al
ready know that the great State of Him
DIS will go solidly and enthusiastically
into the convention for Judge Gresham
It's not only the endorsement of State
convention which stands back Of him,
but very wonderful force Of popular
feeling having no existence in ordinary
political methods It is founded in the
hearts of Republican masses, who see in
Judge Gresham the unfinching honesty,
the remarkable mental balance, and the
purity Of life which characterized that
greatest American Abraham Lin
coin.

The building in which the Republican
convention is to be held, will, in no sense,
be a completed structure when the con-
vention day arrives; but there now seems
to be no donbt but that the auditorium
proper will be ready for the convention,
and will make splendid hall
for the purpose, The outer walls will
scarcely be high enough by that time to
cover the unsightly interior walls and
trusses, but will be sufficiently erected
to show the visitors the prospective
grandeur of the building. To those
who have not read description of this
building, it is proper to explain that the
Auditorium Hall is fre-prOof interior
structure, and has been pushed forward
in construction in order to be ready for
the convention. The exterior space,
surrounding the hall on three sides, will,
when completed, be utilized for stores,
Offices and hotel, and the whole will
make one of the wonders of Chicago

Chicago is never devoid of sensations,
and the past week has contributed its
full share. The divorce courts were es-
pecially sensational, furnishing most
disgusting example of immortality in
high life, as well as other warnings to
those who enter matrimony to choose
wisely. Saturday the brutal negro MUIR
derer, Zeph. Davis, was hung, and the
previous day the police made an import
ant capture of notorious thief named
Dyer Seaman, after having brisk Skin
mish with him, in which some fifty shots
were exchanged. On change, a very
strong bull movement has been inauge-
rated, and "a dollar a bushel" is freely
predicted for wheat, while corn is very
strong around the sixty-cent mark. II
the long-expected European war occurs
this year, American farmers will find
substantial reason to rejoice over our
peaceful institutions and favorable loca-
ton as regards the rest of the world.

IGen. c. GormGn's Interview in N. Y. HsrAld.l
1.-THE Republican contest this year
represents mainly Mr.. Blaine, and he
represents only his own appetite and
that of his Unsuitable millionaire clients.
The Democratic party represents Mr..
Cleveland, who is charged with no un-
manly crime or tendency. He never
knelt and begged for letters he had
written. He never combined with Op-
ponents to defeat the members of his
party. He never periled the peace Of
the country to secure guanO beds for his
friends. II elected he will not make
on assignment Of his administration to
anybody. If Mr.. Tweed were living,
and If his sub-chieftains were hauling
him about the country and exhibiting
him as the next Secretary of the Treas
ury, some Democrats would rev olt and
wait for better days. In the same frame
of mind Republicans who do want
Harrison elected bad enough to see the
government placed in the hands of
Blaine will not cease to be Republi-
cans, but will refuse to further the pro-
gram. l am one of this class-and
therefore. unless Gen. Harrison gives
the country an assurance that lie will
not, ifelected, place the author of the
Mulligan letters and the political assas-
sin of Roscoe Conkling at the head of
the State department, my feeble infiu-
ence will be cast In favor of the elec-
tion of Mr.. Cleveland"

Their Only Medicine Chest.

DEERLoDGE, MONTANA, Dec, 16, 1876.
I have been using Brandreth's Pills
for the last thirteen years. and though l
have had nine children, I have never
had doctor in the house, except three
times, when we had an epidemic of
scarlet fever, which we soon banished
bya vigorous use of Brandreth's Pills.
/ have used them for myself, two or
three a night for a month, for liver
complaint, dyspepsia and constipation.
In diarrhoea, cramps, wind collie, indi-
gestion, one or two of Brandreth's Pills
fixed the children at once. A box of
pills is all the medicine chest we require
in the house We use them for rheu-
matism, colds, catarrh, biliousness and
impure blood. They never have failed
to cure all the above complaints in a
very few days. VIM. B. MILLER.

"THE newspaper entitled to the distinction of
having the largest daily circulation in America is
THE CHICAGO DAILY News. (Since this state
ment was made it is possible that the growth Of
the NezO York World entities it to first place)
The Graphic to-day devotes page to sketches Of
scenes in and about its establishment. The his
tory of this paper is probably without parallel
in the annals of American journalism. 1t Was
founded December Goth, 1875, and was the first
low-priced daily successfully established in the
West. At the end of its first year it had achieved
circulation of about 10000. From that time on
its growth has been remarkable. It now prints
seven editions daily, comprising both morning
and evening issues. Its statement of circulation
for the year 1884 shows daily average of 12s,
copies unquestionably the largest daily circulation
on the American continent. (The sworn state
ment for 1887 shows daily average of 1861 ,376)
g In politics The DAILY News is always indie
pendent, never neutral. While its editorial ex-
preston is sometimes vigorous to the degree Of
severity there is always in its utterances Of opinion
so manifest purpose to be impartial and fair to
all opposing interests that it rarely loses the con-

much indebted for its remarkable growth in circu-
lation to the persistent adherence on the part
of the other Chicago dailies to the blanket
sheet " style Of journalism. Of all the people in
America the average Chicagoan is most in a hurry
and least inclined to wade through columns of
verbiage and stuff THE DAILY News is the only
Chicago daily that has the facilities for giving all
the news, and at the same time the good sense to
present it in concise form. The result of such
condition of affairs is that The DAILY News prints
more papers than all the other Chicago daies
combined.
"In considering all the causes which have
entered into and produced so phenomenal jour-
nalistic growth the most important one unques-
tionaby has been the controlling conviction Of its
managers that the "cheap paper should be cheap
only in price, that its news should be as fresh and
complete, its editorial discussion as able, and its
general tone and character as pure and heathful
as its best and highest priced contemporary. All
this the cheap paper" may easily be even at its
reduced price. -.
"The difference of revenue between the two.

cent? and the higher-priced "blanket-sheet," the
latter throws away in useless and unasked for
size, that not only is Of no worth to the reader,
but is even an annoyance, in that it compels him
to CLEAN what is of real news interest from mass
Of verbiage and worthless application.
1T is because its managers have been wise
enough to practically recognize these essential
elements Of the best American journalism of to-
day that The DAILY News is the best and most
popular general family newspaper published in
Chicago or the West"
