Let the Government Help Everybody.

The effect of the special legislation
and special bounty some of the silver
men are asking from Congress is al
ready becoming apparent. The agri-
cultural classes, whose needs of public
help are greater than those of any 9TH
ers, are putting forward their claims.
Senator Vance has, at the request of
the Farmers Alliance, introduced bill
in Congress which calls for the erection
in every county of the United States of a
Federal warehouse, in which the own
ers of agricultural products may deposit
the same and receive treasury notes for
80 or IS per cent of the market value of
these products. the notes to become
part of the public currency.
Of course every advocate of the silver
warehouse scheme will assert that the
agricultural warehouse plan is prepos-
ferrous, and not much better than the
plan proposed some time ago by Chi
cago paper, that the government pur-
chase all the whisky manufactured, and
issue therefor legal tender certificates;
and it is claimed for whisky that, as a
basis of currency, it would have the
unique advantage of increasing in value

and after certain number of years the
government might sell portion for the
cost of the whole, and would thus make
q handsome profit. Yet this PROPOSE
tion no doubt appears very absurd to
nearly every one. The Farmers Alli-
ance consider its plan to have govern
ment warehouses very serious one.
Next we may reasonably expect the lead
meters and the copper producers and
iron furnaces to ask the government to
indorse their warehouse certificates or
to buy their products at some fictitious
"market price,"
When the government buys what
every one produces, and pensions every
individual in the nation with the taxes
collected from every one, we shall have
arrived at Bellamy's ideal state, and
the government will, Of course, then
dictate what shall be produced and who
shall produce it. We confess the Bella
my scheme seems to us to be a sensible
and practical plan compared with some
of the schemes proposed, and we are
accustoming ourselves to looking for
ward" to its adoption at an early date
ifthe present craze for government help
in every industry and by every indi-
vidual continues. Before long we may
expect every business to draw a bounty
in some shape and every individual to
get pension.-Eng. and Min. Journal.

A DREAM OF BEAUTY.

The fame of Saur & Balsley's
large drug house is almost ma
tional, and the big establish
ment never showed to better
advantage than at the present
time. when the superb wall pa
per department, dressed for
the spring opening, shines
forth like a dream of beauty.
In truth, it would be hard
to duplicate this magnificent
display anywhere. Then with
what pleasure and comfort
those in want of decorations for
their homes can examine
them in the largest and best
appointed wall paper and dec
Grafton. salesroom in this part
Of the State.
Here can be found the larg-
est and most stylish assortment
of papers to be found in the
markets of the world to-day,
the very finest wall paper now
being sold for little more than
the price Of the commonest
kind Of paper a few years ago.
So that it makes it possible for
the humblest citizen to make
his home beautiful and com
Portable, placing it upon a par
with the costly mansions of the
wealthy. ~ =. ..~ ,.'.' '''
Many of the new styles are
exquisite and striking, and the
good taste always displayed by
this house, is shown in the i'm
mense and varied stock on ex-
hibition at the salesroom Of
Saur & Balsley. 1t will be
time we'll spent to look over
the styles and assortment,
whether you wish to purchase
now or not. A thing of beauty
is always pleasant to look up,
on, and a more beautiful stock
of wall decorations was never
seen in Napoleon.
Mr.. Saur, the "Little Dutch
man." as he is familiarly known
the country over, has long since
well earned the name of "Wall
Paper King" a name given him
years ago by common consent
from the people generally. In
this respect his reputation has
increased, until now it is ad-
mitted by all that Saur & Balls
ley carry the finest and best
stock in this section.
And so we'll satisfied are we
that this house carry the finest
and most complete stock of
Wall Paper, Window Shades
and Decorations, that we are
willing to stake our reputation
to back up these assertions,
knowing full well that all will
acknowledge what we have said
after examining and purchas-
ing from the stock of this house.
Nothing adds more to the
beauty and comfort Of a home
than to have upon its walls and
ceiling tasty and stylish paper,
which require no expert to
hang, for most anybody can
hang the paper sold by Saur y
Balsley. Therefore, the cost
Of the paper being SO little, and
the work done by yourself,
ones home can be beautifed
at small expense.
Get youl Wall Paper Of Saur
& Balsley and see if what we
saylis not verified.

them under his eye. Fitzgerald was reported
by theexeeutlvc officer As refusing to do the
extra duty imposed upon him by court

tied TO the Jacobs ladder. The punlsh-
ment TO the men al Cronstadt was not
severe the captain said a. he had taken into
account the extenuating circumstances.
Drunken men were never confined In close
quarters. aud the marching OF intoxicated
men up and down the deck was always for
the purpose OF getting the whisky out OF
them. Commander Mccalla had never
heard OF the men being deprived OF their
hammocks until the sailors gave their testi-
mony before the court OF Inquiry. When
Dclmour aud Morris escaped from their
irons nj Rouen the captain then ordered that
the men be ironed in a line for safe keeping.
This was the purpose also OF the coniine-
ment at Oran aud stettln.

Commander McCalla said he had ordered

ChristianIa because he believed him TO be
crazy from liquor. In such eases as these
he did not consider ordinary methods suf
