THE PROPOSED HERALD BUILDING,

The mania for new newspaper buildings
has struck Chicago, and The Herald is a
victim. The work of tearing down old
structures on Washington street, between
Fifth avenue and La Sale street, will be
followed by the erection of one of the finest
newspaper buildings in the west. The
style of architecture will be renaissance
of the end of the Fifteenth century-slight-
ly Gothic. The building will be 81 feet
wide, 10 feet deep and 100 feet high. The
front will be highly and artistically orna-
mented, statue of a medieval herald
blowing his official trumpet forming one
of the chief decorations, while at night
many electric lights will make the struct-
ure stand out in bold relief. Especial re-
gard will be given to those small things
which are so often neglected. Bathrooms,
barber shops and lunch rooms will be fur
nished for the use of members of the diff
ferent forces, and everything will be done
to assure the comfort of employees and ia
ciltate their work.

There has been some talk about the
advisability of changing the designs on
United States coin on the ground that the
present symbols are not appropriate nor
artistic. Director Leech is credited with
favoring such scheme, but it is meeting
with opposition in some quarters. There
is bill in congress authorizing the steps
that would be preliminary to such move,
but there is considerable talk that it will
not be passed. at least not prior to the
summer vacation.
Col Bosbyshell, of the Philadelphia
mint, where any changes that were au-
thorized woulu have to be made, has had
no official intimation of such a thing. He
hesitates about giving his opinion on the
advisability of doing such thing, but it
is quite evident that he does not look on it
with favor. He says the experience of
other countries is that any such changes
are dangerous, and if made should only be
done after giving the matter the gravest
consideration.

Chinese Medicine.

Chinese medicine is even more empirical
than American. Nevertheless the almond
eyed physicians are so successful with
rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, neuralgia
and similar complaints that they have
built up vast practice among their
Caucasian neighbors who suffer from those
ills. The Mongolian NJ. d. fills his own
prescription, and charges the cost under
his own fee, which is usually 81. There
are only five medical sons of Confucius in

What Ais the Times {?

One day last week our attention was
called 20 case that answers fully the
oft-repeated query, ''What ails these
times? ' A farmer of this county con-
cluded last fall that, with products sell
Ing below cost of production, he would
have to farm i'm 1890 without other AS
sistance than that afforded by his family ;
the total product of over forty acres
being required in 1889 to pay the hand
he had hired from April LIST to October
lst. Therefore he had sale in Februa-
nv to reduce the labor on his place to
the capacity of one pair of hands, for
the current year. He sold some horses,
hogs and cattle. taking notes without
interest, amply secured, payable Jan. l.,
1891. Sickness and other matters re-
Quired that he should have some money,
about two weeks ago. and he applied to
our banks to buy one of his notes
amounting to $3.50. The BANKS didn't
want it because it was SO long before it
became due. He then tried some of our
brokere, and the best offer he got was
$l10-fOrty dollars for the use of $llO
for a little over seven months! No
wonder there is such light trade-as it
is only the usurers who can buy, and
they want everything below cOst.-Ex.
We have in "A little memoranda we
keep for that purpose, over 20 names of
men who have been through the same
mill i'm this county. One of them had
to pay such high commissions and inter-
est that he had to let his stock and home
90, and he left the county and state, and
we don't blame him. A KICKER.

Il The Maine Democratic convention
wrestled with the Prohibition question,
and the result shows how forty years of
Prohibition experience established itself
in the minds of the people Of Maine. The
platform which was adopted was ma
jority report; but seven members sent
in a minority report, pronouncing for Ii
cense and local option and the resub-
mission of the prohibitory amendment,
which it was moved to add to the ma
jority report.
Over this occurred the great fight of
the session The license question had
been under discussion among the mem
bers Of the convention previously, and
there was strong demand. led by the
Bangor delegation, which favored it.
There was great uproar for while,
and the speakers were cheered by their
friends and Kissed by their opponents.
The license plank was defeated by vote
of 176 in favor and 273 opposed. The
leaders of the party were arrayed against
license almost to a man, being fearful
that it would drive the Prohibitionists
away from them.

The Washington Sentinel has this pa
triotic notice standing at the head Of its
editorial columns from week to week:
1T is the holy duty of every man who
loves his country, wants its liberties and
free institutions preserved and puritani-
Cal despotism and tyranny destroyed to
see that all emigrants, or such that have
neglected to do SO heretofore, take out
the necessary papers in order to become
nat'ralized. In every city. town and
village there ought to be "a standing com
mittee for that purpose. If we want to
succeed we must do it at the ballot box. ;"
The I'VE" in the last sentence refers to
the liquor trade, of which The Sentinel
is champion. And yet some one says
that this holy cause of temperance must
not be dragged into the dirty pool of
politics!-Voice.

A Stern Rebuke.

The Reformed Presbyterian church
made the following declaration at it's late
general council:
ION state occasions liquors weight the
tables presided over by our Christian
president and his lady. The vice presi-
dent goes in this respect to greater ex-
cess, and besides derives profit from
the sale of liquors in the property which
he owns or controls. With these and
many other illustrations of the danger
TO be apprehended from the liquor traffic
before us it is evident that the voice of
the church ought to sound out on the
side of sobriety for the person and Pro-
hibition for the state. We recommend
the following:
"That the law of total abstinence be
most rigidly enforced by the courts of
the church, and any known violations
Of this law be promptly acted upon
ave again approve of Prohibition as
the only efficient means by which the
state can deal with the liquor traffic.
and urge our people to do all they can
consistently to secure and enforce it,"

the list of cities declaring in favor of
Prohibition, SO that this year twelve
cities have declared in favor of it, and
the remaining thirteen have retained the
license system by largely reduced ma
jorities. The cities thus newly convert
ed to Prohibition gave heavy majorities
against the prohibitory amendments to
the constitution some six months pre-
viously, and are generally SO removed
from any neighboring basis of supply as
virtually to declare for Prohibition in
preference to the kind Of high license
provided by the Republican legislature.
