MONDAY, Sept. d.

We've a word to say to
people who have their own
COWS and make butter tor
themselves or others. "Butter
Moulds " is the word. We
have some made of hard wood
that look very nice, and per-
haps they're as good as they
look. We don't believe the
butter will keep any longer or
will taste any sweeter moulded
in these that we have, but they
are as good as any we ever
saw. They're no use to you
if you don't make butter.
Woodenware isn't hard
ware, is it? But that's one of
the lines we offer you this
week. Hash bowls, or rather
bowls in which to chop meat
are made of wood, and we
have EN-; some of them small
enough for two ; others large
enough for the parties who
have been in business long
enough to raise large families.
We have them to fit any size.
A new lot of carriage whips,
some of them you would want
to use on a $1,000 animal. We
have others, plenty good
enough for a horse not worth
$40. The style and work
manship governs the price.
You'll want a good one.
Some "Buhac" this time :;
strong enough to knock down
a bill collector, and it's a
harder thing to do that than it
is to kill mosquitoes. We don't
know how true it is but we've
been told that any mosquitoes
who get a Whit of this powder
and manage to get away, tell
their neighbors, and that set
ties the mosquito nuisance.
We don't vouch for this state
take it for what it's
worth.
We have a fish kettle in
agateware that looks like a
pretty good thing. 1t seems
as though fish boiled in one
of them ought to taste lots
better than the ordinary wavI
of dousing them in hot water
and boiling all the substance
out of the fish. You don't

On the subject of the Miner Electoral
bill Mr. Cutcheoa said: 1T is the most
unjust and indefenslble piece OF partizan
legislation | ever heard OF H. Ii 10
wholly unconstitutional IN every re-
spect. IL proposes TO elect federal cleo
tors by congressional districts That
proposition is fatty in conflict with the
fed srAi constitution. The federal instru-
ment says that each state shall select
or appoint AS many electors OF presi-
dent and v.ce.president as II IS allowed
congressman and senators. This Is y
power delegated 10 the states. and no
legislature can constitutionaliy re-dele-
gate that power To congressional dis-
tricts. The whole teaching OF Law Is
opposed to the redeiegating OF delegated
power. for such power Is IN the nature
of trust. The federal constitution
says that the state, as an entity, shall
be entitled To as many electors as there
are congressman and senators and not
each congressional district and two
arbitrarily established districts shall he
entitled TO one elector each. Why,
my dear SIR. # the legislature has con-
stitutlonal power &c set apart the east
and west half OF the state for the clec-
ton of electors corresponding to the
number of senators, it has an equal
right to establish in the same arbitrary
manner any other combination OF dis
tricls for tho purpose. 1t could de-
clare that the county of Wayne should
select one eiector and the balance of
the counties the other. But The whole
bill is contrary 70 the spirit OF our
political system and Is step toward
confusion aud disaster. The clear and
accepted meaning of the federal con-
stitution is observed IN every state OF
the Union and that is that senators and
electors are state officers. rather tnan
district officers, and the apportionment
OF one elector To each congressman and
senator in no wise changes their charac-
ter. The law will be declared uncon-
stItutional without the slightest doubt"
Squaw.buck statesmanship.
General. what is your opinion Of
our great reform Legislature ?" was the
question next prop0unded.
He shrugged his broad shoulders.
str0ked his gray beard and then looked
hard at the reporter, saying with great
deliberation, hnged with unmstakable
contempt: "Oplnlon? Why, what
opinion could any honest man have OF

stealing of those two seats in the Sem

now foist iniquitous partisan legisla-
ton upon the people under the guise of
law. An attempt has been made to
justify that enormous theft by the
Breckenridge case in the House of Rep
resentatives. They are totally unlike
in almost every particular. In that
case the committee took evidence for
three months, considered the same in
committee and both majority and
minority reports were filed. Then the
House debated the merits of the case,
and when 1t came to vote there was a
quorum present and every parliamer =
tary rule was observed and courtesy
shown to the minority. In our State
