Here is what The Toledo Commercial says
of the Germans:
A fair audience greeted the Germans last
night at the Wheeler, upon their first ap-
pearance in Toledo for themselves. For a
number of years the Germans have been the
brains of Haverly's minstrels, and to them
much credit is due for his success. But now
they have branched out for themselves with
all the best talent of Haveriy's ministries,
and they give very unique and interesting
performance. Something very unusual in
negro minstrelsy is a new departure, but the
Germans had several last night. and the ver-
dict that the performance, as an entirety,
ranks among the very first For stand i'm
mediately following Davenport and Booth
and Barrett, the house was splendid one,
and they evidently enjoyed the show. The
novelties began with the roIling-up of the
curtain and ended when it went down. The
first part was novel, and was aided with
scenic efforts.
Germans Minissrels play here tomorrow
night in Granite Hall.

CLEVELAND doubtless has decided to
throw consistency and pretenses of pu-
rity to the winds, and go in with Hill
and his liquor dealers in united at
tempt to carry New York. There ls no
use Disgusting the fact that this alliance
is q strong one. 1t shows that Cleveland
understands now that the Mugwumps
are not strong In numbers. and he has
thought it best to throw them overheard
rather than oppose Hill. Besides there
is no likelihood that he will lose their
support. They do not care for consis-
tency, or they would have abandoned
Cleveland long ago. There are, howev-
or, many honest Democrats in the state
who repudiate Hill and his administers
ton, and who when they see the ALI
ance Cleveland has formed with him,
will bolt the entire ticket. Besides, the
Mugwumps will continue to nag Hill
while supporting Cleveland, and this
will cause many of the Governors
friends to doubt the sincerity of Growers
devotion, and there is likely to be some
throat cutting done some of these dark
nights along toward November. Another
advantage the Republicans gain by Hills
nomination is that all true temperance
voters must flock TO their ranks. The
issue is too clearly made between the
two parties on the question. The cleo.
ton of Hill means the supremacy of the
liquor dealers, and all intelligent men
know the way to prevent that lies II
voting the Republican ticket. It is safe
to say the Prohibition vote will be small

wnosA WON'T have her 100000 pub

WrNoNA won't have her S100, 900 pub
lie building, it seems. A Washington
correspondent tells about it a. follows:
"Judge Wilson, of Minnesota, attempted
in the house Friday to secure unanimous
consent for the consideration Of Q bill
appropriating 500, 600 for the erection Of
a public building at Winona. He gave q
brief recital of the history OF the town
and its size, amount of business transact
ed, and other particulars showing the
necessity for the immediate erection of
a public building. Mr.. Holman ives the
first to jump the bill, with the suggestion
that 100000 was too much money 10
spend on town of 10000 inhabitants,
and was proceeding to make life . bur.
den for the Judge, when Struble OF Iowa
blocked the whole game by Directing to
the consideration of the bill. He stated
the fact that he had twice secured the
passage Of bill for the erection OF q
public building at Sioux City, town of
nearly IS, 600 inhabitants, ard had been
unable to secure executive approval
thereof. He was unwilling that any one,
and especially Democrat, should be
compelled to undergo the humiliation Of
the veto of bill of apparent merit, and
he refused to allow consideration"
Now that the surplus is getting small the
vetoes may be expected thick and fast
where the North and West are concern
ed. The small towns of Arkansas will
be cared for Just the same.

NO CHANGE MADE.
The Grading of Grain Will Remain
on the Same Basis as Last Year.


The matter of the grading of grain,
which has occupied the attention OF
farmers and grain dealers for couple
of weeks past, has at length been settled
by the state board of railroad and ware
house commissioners. Thursday the
board decided not to make any change
in the grades which were adopted last
year. The board arrived at this deci-
sion after receiving numerous letters
from well-informed grain dealers, In
spectors and others interested. One OF
these letters is from r. r. Burdick, ex-
chief grain inspector, In which he says:
While endeavoring to protect the
producer, you should not lose sight OF
the purchaser, as he stands ready to
purchase it with his money for what it
is worth, and he cannot possibly do
more. Hence, if you lower your stand
ard of quality Tor grade), you necessari-
" decrease its mercantile value, for it Is
worth so much and no more, no matter
what grade you call it, and the producer
will not be benefited but impoverished
thereby. 1t will be like the "fat" dol
lar; calling it dollar does not by any
means make it dollar. Lower your
grade of No. hard wheat to admit oil
10 or 10 per cent. of frosted wheat Tor
any other imperfection) and You de-
crease the mercantile value of that grade
and benefit nobody. The Estate" grades
are known and understood perfectly in
all the principal wheat markets of the
world, and millions of bushels are bought
and sold each year upon those grades,
and perfect satisfaction exists, as wit
ness the threeyears they have been in OPP
Grafton, and to now change them where
nobody would be benefited would, ]
claim, work more harm than good.
