Produce Exchange.

There is no great change to mention in the
produce market. Butter has not varied in
any particular for several days. Cheese is
steady and firm. Oranges and lemons are
steady. The poultry market has improved
little within the last twentyfour hours.
There is not quite as large a stock on hand,
and the receipts are more limited. The con-
sequence is that there is better demand for
each, and prices are firmer and stronger.
Apples are firm; SO are cranberries. Chest
nuts have declined to $3.50.

THE CALIFORNIA HELPER,
A Fraudulent Poker Table and
Its Mechanism.
Chicago Times.

Chicago Times.
The table is covered with billiard
table cloth TO within a few inches of the
edge. There is a strip of wool all
round. The cloth turns next to this
strip of wood, and there is a natural
looking seam where the wood and the
cloth meet. A man who knows the
table can sit down at certain point,
and begin operating a helper that is
under the strip of wood, and which
can be got at through the seam. BY
inserting a knife or piece of wire
into the seam he touches spring which
causes a lever to drop under the table.
He fastenS this lever between his knees
and with it works the machine in the
table. When he picks up his band he
holds it in front of him just inside the
edge of the cloth, turns his knees to the
left, the wood between him and the
cloth swings back little, and up out of
the seam pops receiver. OF course he
is holding out, and he puts the card lie
doesn't want into the receiver. turns his
knees to the right, and down goes the
machine, leaving nothing except nat
ural-lOoking seam to be seen when he
straightens up and raises his hand from
the table,

If WILL COFrE.

Sooner or later the country viii insist
upon it that every man who fought for her
shall be placed upon the pension-roll, just
as the country insisted that those who fought
in previous wars should be put upon the
pension-rolI.
This will be not so much because the vet
Grams themselves demand it, but because of
the natural sense of justice and gratitude in
the hearts of the American people.
Our people are constantly being educated
as to the immensely of the services and saeri-
fees of the men who saved the Nation. The
bitterest of the soldier hating papers con-
tinually concede this in score of uncon-
scious and unwilling ways. Even while
their editorial columns are filled with denun-
Citations of some specific act of justice to the
veterans their news and literary columns
will contain stories of the heroism, the I'M
selfshness, and the patient fortitude of the
men who fought the Nations battles from
1861 to 1865
Reading these, seeing around them all the
time men whose wrecked bodies are living
testimonials to the exhaustive strain OF
those awful days, the people, whose hearts
are ever right, will demand that the Nation
shall do its duty to the men TO whom it owes
every thing. They will scorn the small, mean
ways of doing out allowances, measuring
the Nations justice by apotheeary scales" as
Gen. Harrison aptly described it, and de-
mand that every man who did his duty in
the hour of dire need shall receive at least
enough to support him and his family de-
Gently during the few years that may be
vouchsafed him.
To this end The NATIONAL TRIBUNE
will devote its highest energies. 1t has nc
other cause to serve than that of the soldiers
and it will not rest until every one of them
has comfortable pension.

Gen. Harrison's remarks to the South
Carolina delegation last week would seem
TO indicate that he proposes following a
policy in the Southern appointments similar
to that we have urged upon him. He told
the South Carolinians plainly that he in
tended to break up organizations which
were merely formed for securing offices, By
refusing to appoint those whom they urged.
Candidates. said he, must have higher
ideas than mere ofIice-seeking. They must
be interested in all things that contribute to
build up the interests of the South. There
are no men in the South who fill these re-
quirements better than the veterans who
made their homes in the South at the close
of the war. Many OF them did this because
they had married Southern girls, but the
great bulk went there for the same reason
that hundreds of thousands of these COM
rades went to Kansas, Iowa, Minnesota,
Dakota and Montana; that is they saw
there land Of vast and undeveloped re-
sources, which was a worthy field for their
energies. They have developed Northern
Georgia, Northern Alabama, Florida, East
Tennessee, and parts of Arkansas and other
States just SIS their comrades have developed
the great new prairie States. They are
closely identified with the interests of the
South for they originated and built up most
of the new industries and expanded the old,
which have made the New South rich and
prosperous. They are men from whom the
President should select his appointees to
office, for they represent all that is best
and most progressive in that section. The
Bourbon leaders represent nothing but what
they represented 80 years ago; that is, an
organized and INSCRIPTIONS rapacity for
power. The Independent faction is largely
made up Of men who have broken away
| from the Bourbons because they have been
| sighted in the distribution of the Offices
They represent nothing, but that A should
have the Office instead of B. On the other
hand, the veterans represent the men who
care little for Offices, but everything for the
mentalandmaterial upbuilding of theSouth
| They represent school houses and churches
new railroads, furnaces, mines, rolling mills
marble quarries, fruit culture, orange grow
ing, and the boundless capacity of the great
| New South.
Let us have these men fill the offices in
the Sunny South. Mr. President.
