Our Equine Aristocrats.

Among The 1900 equine aristocrats
on exhibition are the Sl05. 600 trotter,

world, Johnston. One stable aloue,
that OF the Hanlins, of Buffalo, is in

In the Dunham list are the draft
horses, valued at SI0,O0 apiece, which
attracted so much attention from the

ing everywhere prevails. In spite of
the retarding influences, reports of the
condition of business are generally ia
vorable. The growth Of manufacturing
at many western points is a noticeable
feature, and especially in the gas re-
gions, at points il; northern Illinois and
Iowa. Merchants generally recon up
on large increase in the amount of
business over last year. The hardness
of collections is due in different sections
to short or late crops; to yellow fever:

The house of representatives has
agreed to take up and consider senate
bill passed last December providing that
public lands chiefly valuable for agri-
culture, now subject to private entry,
shall be disposed under the homestead
law only, and that the presumption law
shall be repealed. Persons who have
made q presumption or homestead entry
of land, but who have not perfected title
thereto, are given the right to make an
other homestead entry. Whenever a
settler upon the public domain is I'M
able, on account of destruction of crops,
sickness or Otner unavoidable casualty,
to secure support from the land locat-
ed upon, the local land officers may
grant leave Of absence from the claim
to the settler for not exceeding one
year. Homestead settlers who have
made entry of less than one-quarter
section of land are given the privilege
of making another entry, the aggregate
quantity under the entries, however,
not to exceed 1870 acres,

What is the world coming to? Are

ual labor" To people who have known
the gentleman for years, this all sounds
like bosh. No one questions that he
did sleep out of doors one night during
his war experience; but no one will be-
lIeve that the rheumatism then con-
tracted has totally disabled him from
making living. Might it not be that
he contracted rheumatism while mem
Der of congress four years; or while gov
ernor tour year; or since his residence in
Kansas City-any time, In fact, during
the twenty-five years since he left the
army. He is now fifty-six years old,
and of coulse the hinges of his knees
are not as supple as they were in 1865.
but is it not fact that the farmer, the
mechanic, the lawyer or the banker who
never smelt the smoke of battle from
afar, in twenty-five years might have
felt rheumatic pains and a certain stiff
ness of his joints, the sure accompani-
ment of old age? And then there Is
another thing TO be considered in this
application of Gov. Crittenden: He is
rich and does not need the money. Pen
sions were devised for the poor and
needy; for those so disabled in the SER
vice of their country that they cannot
support themselves or their families.
For millionaire to apply for a pen
sion is something unusual and in bad
taste. 1t is setting an example that, if
followed, would deplete the national
treasury and cause good men to consid-
er themselves helpless and dependent
on charity.
