Mr.. w. G. Cameron and family hay
ing become reconciled to the idea of a
surgical operation, DIR. Fengar, a noted
surgeon of Chicago, was summoned
here last Saturday to perform the deli
cate work. DIR. Fengar, with several
local physicians were at the Cameron
home Saturday at IL a. m, for that pur-
pose, but the skilled gentleman advised
against an operation, deeming 1t under
the circumstances, as certainly fatal.
He says that Mr.. Cameron's affection
is fatty cancer, affecting In greater or
less degree, all of the abdominal region;
that the main cancer, the part to be re-
moved, is penetrated by an artery, rem.
dering the operation extraordinarily
hazardous, IL not quite impossible.
The Doctor is eminent in his profes.
sion, and charged $500 for the visit.
This leaves the patient in an almost
hopeless condition, though the trouble
may be partially overcome, Certain it
is that Mr.. Cameron has shown remark.
able fortltude and indomitable will in
fighting against the assailing affection.

There appears IN the Ohio Demo-
cratic platform the following plank;
I'VE demand the abolition of Ma
tional bank notes, we demand that
full legal tender treasury notes be
issued ia sufficient volume To con-
duC.t the business of the county On
a cash basis" Aside from this being
an unqualified declaration for fiat
money, it is particularly noticeable
also In relation TO the position that
the Democratic party assumes 20 oc-
eapy toward the laboring men.
The Democratic party Is forever de-
elaring that IL is the especial friend
O. laboring men. and the Only true
eonservator OF their interests. But
how does such a demand as the fore
going accord with such declared friend
ship? As Is well known legal tender
treasury notes are non-taxable. but
National bank bills are subject TO tax
alton. IL National bank bills were
withdrawn from circulation, and .e-
sal tender treasury notes were sub
stituted for such National bank bills
so much OF the circulating medium
OF the country. which Ia now taxable
would be succeeded by a circulating
money medium, which Is not taxable.
The Tailoring men could not be ben
Gifted by such substitution, for
the rich men have more OF the
money circulation OF the country
than the laboring men do. and II such
money circulation did not have to
help pay the taxes. some other kind
OF property would be taxed to pay
the amount OF tax. which such money
circulation would be free from pay
ing And the property which would
be tho moSr apt TO pay such tax
would he visible real estate. which
never escapes the eyes of the as
SCISSORS. That IL. the poor mems home
steads would be more heavily taxed
because the rich mems money cir
culation was free OF any taxation.
Such is Democratic consistency.

wINANs AND THE GRAND ARMY.

FROM the Inter ccean.
An evening contemporary processes
Indignation that the Grand Army, or
some considerable number OF its men,
bers. should have ''insulted" Governor
Winans. of Michigan. on account Of
his having vetoed the appropriation
OF 5000. granted by both houses OF
the State Legislature in aid OF the en-
campment at Detroit His action"
says our contemporary, twas based
upon the entirely valid grounds Of
uncOnstitutionality."
For our part, we are not aware OF
any insult offered by the Grand Army,
or by any considerable number of it's
members. to his Accidency, the Cover
nor. He was not invited TO review the
veterans. IL Is true. But the omission
may have been from one or both of
two causes. The veterans may have
desired his absence more than his pres
ence on account OF certain speeches
which he made while they were fight
ing at the 'front.'" Mr.. Winans was
n member of the State Legislature
when the now SCARED and worn SOL
disrs Of the Grand Army were facing
Ise and Jackson. and what he said in
the Legislature OF more than quarter
century was read to the Legislature
that recently adjourned. What he
said when the war was on was much
more encouraging to the soldiers of
the Confederacy than complimentary
TO the soldiers OF the Union.
The veterans were the guests OF the
people OF Detroit, and their hosts po-
litely may have refrained from forcing
once disloyal legislator upon their
attention. Or IL may be that the
citizens of Detroit resolved to keep the
Governor in the background from n
feeling OF resentment at his parsimon-
ious veto OF an appropriation in behalf
of their city. The veterans may have
had nothing to do with IL.
The unconstitutionality" humbug
Is not worth considering. When Gov
ernor Winans was Representative Wi
mans he held that the conduct OF hte
war for the Union was unconstitu-
Tional, and, so far as we know, he
never has given evidence OF a change
OF opinion. Besides which. while veto
ing absolutely the small appropria-
tion granted for the Grand Army en-
campment, he approved an eppropria-
ton for the Worlds Fair. but not until
he had reduced II by $4,000 from
it's original magnitude under threat
OF veto II n exceeded the sum named
nv him. The plain truth Is Governor
winans II n Democrat Of the old cop
perhend variety. and consequently his
presence at Grand Army encsmp-
ment was unpleasant 10 all concerned

Tho Most Artistic Dwelling In New York.
Probably the most artistic as well as
beautiful house in New York Is the home
of ex-Mayor Abram S. Hewitt. ON the
southeast corner of Lexington avenue and
Twenty-second street. formerly the home
of his father-in law, Peter Cooper Within
the past few years the house has been thor
oughly rcmodcled and refurnished from
top to bottom. The great drawing room,
which Is perfectly square, Is decorated in
Louis XVI style. and for the most part Is
furnished with articles Of the same period
Crimson damask silk covers the walls, and
curtains of the same material drape the
windows. The center OF the ceiling is
dome shaped. and from the center hangs n
largo alabaster lamp. mounted in gilded
bronze. Among the exquisite articles in
the room Is q Louis XIV harp, gilded and
carved, with its sounding board covered
with beautifully painted flowers and mu-
steal Instruments. It is said to be repro
duction Of the harp once owned by Marie
Antoinette.
The small drawing room. which Is along
side Of tho larger apartment, is In Louis
XIV style, and in its furniture are seen
three distinct styles in vogue during the
reign Of that monarch. Pale silk Of a
greenish gray shade is used to cover the
walls. The silken portieres are an exact
copy in texture, color and pattern Of the
bedroom hangin9s designed by Philippe
de la Salle and presented to tho Dauphin.
afterward Louis XVI. upon his marriage

na;ssance In style. Both ceiling and walls
are paneled in natural wood, the former
being copied from an original ceiling in one
of the old baronial houses Of England. The
carved furniture and window hsngings are

interesting feature Of this room Is tho
