SENATOR CULLoM has introduced a
bill providing for one cent postage. Mr..
Harrison sneeringy says that a cheap
coat means cheap man under the coat;
Mr.. Mckinley says Il hate that word
cheap Why should Mr.. Cullom go
against the sentiment OF the
leaders of his party and propose
to sell cheap postage stamps? He
ought to raise the price to
four cents and tell consumers that the
more they paid the better off they were.

The appointment Of Congressman Con-
ger as minister to Brazil makes vacancy
in the head of the house committee on
coinage and Speaker Reed will have an
other chance to ''show the cloven hoof
of Wall street." as our friend the Salt
Lake Tribune would say. Mr.. Wick

committee, Is mild free coinage man,
and, unless Reed is sure he has the
committee packed, he will not put Mr.
Wickham at it's head. Reed is in the
chair to prevent just such legislation as
that.

A notable gathering 10 notable
city was the annual convention OF
the National Woman's Christian
Temperance union 10 Atlanta.
Showing the growth wbice the or
ganization has attained in a few
years were reports from forty differ
ent departments Of labor carried on
by the union. The forty depart
ments include such branches as ed
ucational, eYangelistic, social, aud
legal work. Then there are com-
mittees to organize new branches
of the union and department
which oversees what the ladies call
preventive work. The educational
includes: ,:among other things, the
teaching in schools of the physio-
logical effects of alcohol on the hu-
man stomach and brain. 1t was the
w. @. L. u. that frst introduced
such teaching into schools.
The organization Yields mighty
and constantly increasing influence.
The members carry on and manage
exclusively a temperance publica-
ton house Of their own. They also
control entirely the building OF the
great temple in Chicago, which is to
COST over million dollars aud will
be lasting monument to the en-
ergy and business ability of women.
OF course the ladies have accomp-
lished much good in the temperance
field, more than any other body ever
did in America, perhaps in the
world. But the good result to the
women themselves almost overtop
even this. They have learned from
this union parliamentary usage, the
art Of speaking in public, have be-
come familiar with methodsof trans
business and added wonderfully to
The general intelligence of the sex.
The union has mace Of its members
readers, speakers, business women
and humanitarian workers.
After all this, however, it was
rather humiliating to the W. @. 4.
U. Of Atlanta was it not. that they
had to fall back on a man to deliver
TO the visiting delegates the address
OF welcome?

The butter market appears to be all right
for another week so tar as choice grades are
concerned. Receipts have been kept sold up
every day, and no surplus is visible. North
ern dairy lots OF really choice will command
Il to Is cents, but for the bulk OF receipts as
they arrive II to IL cents is all that can be
depended upon Until full grass stock is
struck dairy butter will have very irregular
value, as receivers are bound to sell it ut
whatever they can get.
The egg trade continues active, and the
liberal receipts meet with Il ready sale at l3 to
1874 cents per Dozen
Potatoes have been arriving more freely,
and prices are easier. Best rose and hebrons
rarely go over ~ per bushel, and other kinds
range from so to 80 cents. The seeding sea
son being nearly over, rose and hebrons will
not be so much called for.
For the best grades OF hay there continues
to be a fair demand, and sales rule at SIG 30 to
| Sl7 80 per ton, but ordinary are still slow, and
Sl2 to SIS is II full range. Winter pressed hay
opens in bad order. Rye straw is in demand

witnessed during the fire can never be for
gotten. What to the spectators was
scene of horror was to the lunatIcs mo-
ment of supreme glee, and in their delight
they disported themselves in the flames
and waved their blazing limbs in turbu-
lent satisfaction at the ruin that was a
bout them, and not until the walls tum-
bled over their heads were their manacal
screams silenced. There were incarcer-
ated in Tongue Pointe 1900 lunatics, for
the asylum was prison more than hos
pital, and now not more than 100 are ac-
counted for; but many escaped into the
woods and fields, and the dead are ashes
among ashes. What the number of the
dead is, is purely a matter of conjecture.
and cannot be ascertained, since no other
record is kept than that in the asylum
books, and they are also destroyed. TAX
ing into consideration the whole of the
evidence from the firemen, half-sane in
mates, the sisters in charge, bystanders,
and person, al observation, it is a conser-
vative estimate to say that 100 victims
met their death, though some assert that
the number is double that and others
place it below this figure.
