BoTH the Dakotas gave a majority
for prohibition, and both the Congress
men-elcct from South Dakota go to
Washington pledged to draft a national
prohibition bill after conferring with
the National Prohibition party leaders.
In Ohio the Republicans are trying to
convince the Germans that they are
opposed to prohibition, and on the
other hand are laboring to prove to
the Prohibitionists that the Republi
can party is really a prohibition party.
On the liquor question the Republican
party is like the Hoosier pedagogue
who applied for Posey county school.
Do you teach that the world is round
or fiat?" asked one of the trustees,
I'll teach it round or fat, just as you
like; / have no prejudice either way"
was the reply. That is the way with
the Republican party with regard to
prohibition. 1t is for the saloon Or
against the saloon, jnst as the occasion
may require, It, has no prejudices
except fulfilling promises.

Deceptive Advertising.

w. Ii. Mills addressed the Editors
Convention at Sacramento, on the re-
lation of the newspapers to the public.
He paid his respects to the various ad-
vertising schemes which are worked in
every place in the country, and in
which enough money is thrown away
to build up good papers and force the
community onward. II there is any
thing which the average merchant
don't know, said Mr. Mills, it is how
to advertise. You will see their card
stuck Up on maps and directories,
which few people look at, at an ex-
pensc that would keep their business
before the readers OF the newspapers
for months. The promoters for a
book got out by the Denver & Rio
Grande made So 600 out of it, and in
Il Jew months not copy could be
found. The First National Bank of
san Francisco got out picture of its
building to be sent to its correspond
ents, and for II four-inch card on the
margin 800 was charged. A couple
OF hundred of the sheets were issued
and hung up in places where few peo-
pie will ever see them and yet all the
spaces were taken doubtless by mer-
chants who wouldn't put a line in n
newspaper. Look out for the foreign
paper that comes into your town to
get up II special edition and which
will make more profit out OF an issue
than n country paper can earn in a year.
Beware of the occasional sheet that
gives you an affidavit of the job prin-
ter as to the copies printed, for most
OF them are probably left i'll the cellar.
1t is not copies printed but copies cir
culated and read that makes an ad-
vertisement valuable. Yet merchants
rarely consider this. The railroad
company some .-ears ago assisted in a
financial way e issuance of $4,000
copies (printer's atfidaviD of pamph-
let showing the resources of a certain
county. Lately 1900 copies of this
pamphlet were found in an old loft
and offered to the company for about
cent pound. All the advertisers
who had counted on drawing Business
through thc:s cards in this pamphlet
were blissfully ignorant of the fact
that they had simply enriched a
sharper.

JACOB Mueller, United States Con-
sui General at Frankfort-on-the-Ma Main,
writing of the effect of the high tariff
in Germany, says: But what strikes
me as strange is that, good as times
may be, workingmen at the years end
are where they were when it began.
Increased prices to manufacturers for
their products are not followed by in
crease of wages to laborers, and the in
creased cost OF workingmen's necessi-
ties seems to put them in more de-
plorable position than ever. The con-
slant division of property and small
estates of those in societys middle
classes and the crushing out of small
concerns by combination of large ones
are constantly recruiting the laboring
classes and flinging into them an ele-
ment of enlightened discomfort that
may one day churn or lift it into pro-
test. The gap between the rich and
the poor is growing greater-the rich
growing richer, the poor poorer, when
not stationery"

Governor Hack closed with an earn
est advocacy OF the system of Demo
cratic societies as the best method Of
meeting the assaults of the enemies of
the Republic. He said he had been
accused of riding this idea as hobby.
But he said: "If any blisters are to
be raised by this hobby riding, | am
the man who is to sit on 'em. There
are four shoulders to this horse, and |
invite you all to get up and ride with
me, and promise that you shall ride to

THE earth reyolyes on her axis, in
twenty-three hours, fifty-six minutes
and four seconds. This time is re-
quired for one rotation from a star
round to the same star again. The
revolution is, therefore, called side
real day. While the earth has been
turning on her axis she has been
advancing in her orbit, and it will
take four minutes on the aver
age to come in the same position in
regard to the sun; thus adding four
minutes to the length of the sidereal
day, gives twenty-four hours for the
solar day. The time of the axial rota-
ton has not varied the hundredth
part OF a second in two thousand
years. 1t may. therefore, be consid-
cred as invariable, and is, consequent
ly, adopted as a fundamental unit in
astronomical measurement.

DUNG Cleveland's administration the
Republicans were allowed minority
representation on every board of pen
sion examiners, and the Democrats
everywhere indorse this policy. Under
the Harrison administration, the policy
has been inaugurated to turn all the
Democrats out, and to appoint solid
boards of Republicans. The Democratic
papers all over the country are roasting
the dominant party. for its inconsist-
ency and injustice in this regard. When
Gov. Allen inaugurated the policy of
minority representation in all the asy-
lum boards he remarked that no success
sor of his would ever dare to return to
the spols system of the solid PARTISAN
boards. Allen knew as much, and
could look as far into the future, as any
other man that ever held the office of
Governor of Ohio. But Republican
administrations, under the pressure of
the spoilsmen, when not restrained by
law, make a point to disregard the
wholesome and just policy inaugurated
by that illustrious statesmen.--Col-
