THE democratic correspondents at
Washington persist in affirming re-
publican hostility to reciprocity mea-
sures. They report what they would,
not what's. The democratic party is
righteously afraid Of meeting the
country with the republican
congress in the van as the advo-
Gates of reciprocity. This is the
situation that faces them, however,
and they must make the most of it.

WHEN the Houston Post charges
that the bill, fixing congressional rep
resentation at one for every 10000
of the people, Is measure framed for
party advantage, it is in order for the
Post to explain how any apportion-
ment can be made that will not be an
advantage to the republican party :?
The simple fact is, that the in
creased populations are in the repuo-
lican states, and as each state is
counted as a whole, and the union
cannot be gerrymandered as was
Ohio, there is no means known to a
democratic congress whereby demo-
cratic gain at the expense of republi-
can increase can be figured out.

Why Oil Gains the Sea.

The action of oil in calming the sea
is now so generally recognized, says the
London Nautical Magazine, that the
new rules as to life-saving appliances
to 60 into effect November l require
that every boat of seagoing vessels and
all lifeboats shall carry tone gallon Of
oil and vessel of approved pattern for
distributing 1t on the water in rough
weather." The potency ofoil In smooth
ing waves was recently explained by
Lord Rayleigh before the Royal Insti-
tuition in q lucid lecture. This we'll
known scientists experiments demon
strate that foam or froth is caused by
impurities In liquids. Thus, on shak-
ing up bottle containing pure water
we get no appreciable foam, but taking
a mixture Of water with five per cent.
alcohol there is much greater tendency
to foam. Camphor, glue and gelatine
dissolved in water greatly increases its
foaming qualities and soap still more.
Lord Rayleigh finds that sea water
foams, not on account Of its saline mat
ter, but in consequence of the presence
of something extracted by wave action
from sea weeds. By simply putting
his finger In water, which was moving
vigorously under the Influence of few

Grape Culture

Is fast becoming a leading business OF
this country, and that together with
wine making requires years of practice.
Mr.. A. Speer, of New Jersey, one of
the largest producers in the East, COM
menced years ago in small way to
make wine from currants, blackberries
and other fruits. He soon turned his
attention to grape raising and planted
large vineyards of the Portugal vines
from which his famous Port Grape
Wine and Unfermented Grape Juice is
made, which chemists and physicians
say rivals the world for its beneficial
effects on weakly and aged persons.

Oysters.

The departure Of the months whose
names have no "r" in them and the
consequent temperance Of the oyster
in the market may well direct atten-
ton to the widespread and growing
importance of this delicious bivalve,
considered as a food staple.
This mollusk, which Ia Roman times
was luxury attainable only by the
rich epicure, and which to this day in
Italy Is produced only in small quanti-
ties, has become In the United States,
and is tending to become in England
and France, recognized staple of gen.
eral consumption. Its incompatible
digestibility when eaten raw and its
susceptibility of prolonged preserva-
ton when steamed and packed In air
tight cans have rendered the cultiva-
ton of this shell-fish subject Of care
full study on the part of the economist
and legislator. The processes of culture
are in some countries defined by stat
ute, and 1t is noteworthy fact that In
England the law forbidding the remov-
al Of oysters from their beds during
May, June, July and August, which
was repealed In 1866, was re-enacted
SCh y C1Ao i0uOLY 1uu 10 uOW
The statistics of the oyster are likely
to surprise those unfamiliar with the
part which it plays in the markets of
the world. 1t is computed that the
number Of oysters Qnclnding both ma
tives and those artificially bred) an
nually taken from the waters of Great
Britain is 1000, 100000. This product
implies q yearly consumption of forty
bivalves per head of the population.
But Great Britain also imports oysters
from the United States. The value OF
this trade, which in 1874 was only SAL
600, had risen In 1883 to $371 900, and is
now, no doubt, much greater. The
outcome of the oyster fisheries of
France, which ranks next among Eu-
ropean consumers, is estimated at $780,
900, 900.
Then come Holland and Italy, which
however, can only procure respectively
81 ,80O,0 and 100000 a year. The
Italians by the way, only practice oys.
ter culture in the Bay Of Tarentum.
The Ostend oyster is famous for its fla.
vor, but the whole yield of Belgium is
only $500, 900, which could be easily
disposed of by few Paris restaurants.
Oysters are particularly dear in st.
Petersburg, because they must be i'm.
ported, only 250,000 being procurable
from Russian waters. Spain and Por.
tugal are, also, badly of, obtaining col.

Utah's Extensive Plan for Her Display
at the Worlds Fair.
CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-Mr. P. H. Lam
nan of Salt Lake City, worlds fair COM
missioner for Utah, has applied to the
committee on site for ten acres of
ground for Utah's display. He says
that all of it will be utilized and that
no state or territory will be able to
make such an interesting or varied dis
play as Utah. He says of it: The main
building will consist ofa mineral pal
ace constructed wholly Of Utah miner
ais and building material. Inside of
the central court, 100 feet square will
be series of galleries. The floor of
the court will be an exact reproduction
of the surface of the territory of Utah,
streams, railroads, and everything re-
produced. on a proper scale as to size
and relative location. The four wings
will contain agricultural, mineral, man
ufacturing and art exhibits. The walls
of the galleries will be decorated with
paintings of Utah's scenery, birdseye
views of cities, historical ard promi-
nent buildings, etc. Models Of the mills
OF her most wonderful mines will be
constructed, and a prominent feature
of the mining exhibit will be an ingeni-
GUS contrived imitation of the interior
of the great Ontario silver mine, from
which $l7 ,000, 600 dollars have been ta-
ken. Placer gold mining by hydraulic
process will be produced. Free con-
certs and other entertainments will be
given in the main galleries each after
noon and evening during alternating
weeks by the various musical and other
organizations of Salt Lake City while
the exposition lasts. The grounds will
be laid off In the highest art of land
scape gardening and irrigated in such
manner as to show the system of irri-
cation and its superiority over all other
systems of farming. All agricultural
and vegetable products known to Utah,
from silk and cotton to sugar beets and
corn, will be cultivated. One of the
most unique features will be reproduc-
ton of the great Salt lake. For practi-
cal purposes and for the pleasure of the
visitors, bath houses for actual use will
be provided and visitors to the exposi-
tion will be afforded an ample oppor-
tunity to enjoy the pleasures of a bath
in waters exactly the same as those in
the great Salt lake itself. This repro
duced lake will be made the same in
density as the great lake itself by the
use of train loads of salt brought from
the great Salt lake direct.
