A Gown Weighing Three Ounces.

About the year 100 a fair young
bride In the village now known as New
Haven wore dainty costume CT white.
The gown was cut low in the neck and
was sleeveless. The dress was of light
and filmy texture, and weighed but
about three ounces. 1t has been handed
down from generation to generation.
until at last it has come into possession
of Danbury lady, who will wear it at
the Red Mems masquerade. The dress
is remarkably we'll preserved and is ex-
tremelv valuable, both from its age aud
the beauty of embroideries with which
it is covered. The design of the trim
ming is prettily worked in the coarse
linen thread so common in those days.

The business community, says
the New York Tribune, may not
agree on the tariff question, but it
is harmonious in its hostility to a
renewal of tariff agitation another
year. Ifthe present congress pass
es the Mckinley bill, there will be
no more tariff legislation for ten
years, provided the republican par
ty remains in power. The election
of democratic house will be fol-
lowed by a,speedy renewal of tariff
agitation and the continuance Of
business uncertainty. There can
be no stronger argument than this
for influencing practical business
men to secure in November the
election of: a republican house.

EIGHTEEN NINETY-TWO.

The result in thirty nine of the
forty-four states in 1892 can as
we'll be told now as later, says the
Cleveland Leader. They will vote
as they did in 1888. The doubtful
states are New York, New Jersey.
Indiana, Connecticut and West
Virginia. New Jersey would not
be doubtful were it not for the fact
that huge frauds were perpetrated
in Jersey City to throw her votes
for Cleveland in 1888. On all hon
est vote and count the fight would
be close and the result doubtful.
Without any of these states the
republicans will have POI electoral
votes in 1892, or ten less than a
majority. Indiana, which gave
Harrison a plurality of 1892
would be enough. New
York, which gave Harrison 1904
plurality, would be a good deal
more than enough. Connecticut
and West Virginia, which gave
Cleveland 1886 and 5O6 plurality
respectively in 1888 would togeth-
er supply the ten votes lacking and
two to spare. There are, there
fore, three separate and wholly
independent combinations without
New Jersey, any one Of which
would enable the republicans to
win in 1892, and every one Of them
is hopeful. The democrats have
only one winning chance before
them. They must carry the solid
South, New York and Indiana, or
lose.

A GOOD deal of satisfaction has
been expressed in Oregon, in the
work of congress, because Of the
liberal appropriations secured in
committee. and passed by the
house in favor Of the improvement
of our rivers and harbors. The
bill is now before the senate, and
the items for Oregon have either
been maintained or increased in
committee, which if passed, will be
subjected to a conference between
the two houses when the whole
matter will be beset with danger.
There seems to be feeling devel-
oping that the aggregate appropri-
ation( about $25,O0O,0OO), is much
too large, and an effort is likely to
be made to cut 1t down to meet
the views Of eastern members.
When the work of cutting down
begins the items for Oregon will
probably prove objective points Of
attack. There is no room to doubt
the earnestness Of any of the men,
bers from Oregon IN defending the
claims of the state, Tor which they
will continue to fight until the fate
of the bill is decided.-Eugene
Register.

SIL YER IN THE SENATE.

The senate has given the country
a surprise in the shape in which it
passed the silver bill. 1t has pro-
vided for the free coinage of silver
and refused to agree to the house
limitations upon the amount to be
coined.
BY the senate bill it is provided
that from and after the date Of the
passage of the act the unit of value
in the United States shall be the
dollar. This may be coined of
1929 grains of standard silver or
25 $40 of standard gold, said coins
to be equally legal tender for
debts, public or private. Any
owner of silver or gold bullion may
deposit it at any mint in the Uni
ted States to be formed into stand
ard dollars OF bars for his benefit
without charge, but it shall be law
full to refuse any deposit Of less
value than 800, or any bullion so
base as to be unsuitable for opera
tons Of the mint. 1t is also pro-
vided that silver and gold certili-
Gates shall be issued which shall
be redeemable in coin and which
shall be receivable as legal tender
for the payment Of all public and
private debts.
1t is not probable that the house
will agree with the senate depart
ures from its bill. The differences
are too radical to be adjusted in
that way. The house may, how
ever, be disposed to greater liber-
ality in its final dealing with the
subject in view Of the senate's atti-
tude- In the conference commit
tee the two bills will be harmo-
nized and blended into measure
which all but the most extreme
advocates of silver coinage will be
satisfied to accept-San Jose Mer-
curry.

AMID all the talk relative to the
railroad situation it must be re-
membered that no note OF discour-
agement need ensue. 1t is but
the common experience; the usual
thing; whether it be Astoria or
New York, local affair or Van
derbilt, the construction Of a rail
road is always a period of delay,
complications, and settling of ar
rangements, that takes time, and
time only, to straighten out.-As-
