An ARTISTIC ERA.--This seems TO be
an artistic era, and In no field is there a
finer taste displayed than In the manuiac-
ure Of presents for the holiday trade. We
wonder at the skill used In the invention
Of many Of the things seen At Foshsy &
Mascn's purchased for Christmas giving.
Not alone Christmas cards, In many and
varied styles, In beautifully blended colors
and ingenius designa but IS well their
albums. pef.une.y cases, toilet sets, dres-
sing cases, ete.,sl,ow the same refined kill
10 construction and embellishments. An
examination of Foshay s. Mason's holiday
stock Il an art exhibition of itself Isut Il
II not dhpiay Of the ornamental alone by
any means. Many usetu! articles are
rone the less valuable because attractive
10 the eye but the more should be sought
| A love Of the beautiful even In articles ol
utility shows higher civilization and nc
where are the people of the world more
generous Of their appreciation OF nice
things .han In Albany and Liam county
| Already the sale OF holiday goods al Fo
shay " Nason's is very large and the It'd,
10 increasing that way. The people know
q god thing.

Ing Of 20 miles of the Union Pacific Rail-

nifcent city hall. In four or five day.
they will finish their contract on the o 7

Foraker Lies to the Farmers.

We quote from a report in the CONNER
cial- Gazette of a speech by Gov. FORAKER:
He then, with many homely and apt illustra-
tons, demonstrated that the protective tariff
increased the purchasing power of the farmer
had caused him TO get more for his produc-
tions-while nearly every manufactured article
that he purchased is now much cheaper than
under free trade.
What an utterly irreclaimable demo-
gogue this man FORAKER Isl Many man.
ufactured articles are now cheaper than
they were when the high tariff policy was
adopted. OF course they are. Everybody
knows this. And every intelligent man
knows, too, that the protective tariff has
had no more to do with cheapening them
than the gulf stream has had. The proof
of this is at our hands 1t amounts
to demonstration. 1t consists in
the fact that there is not sim
gle article in the whole range
of commodities-not one-whether it is
protected" or not-which has fallen in
