Their Derivation.

An inquirer wants to know the
meaning of the terms "quarto," " oc-
tavo," duodecimo," etc, as used in
book-lorc by publishers and book
binders. Turning to the Latin gram
mar we find that quanus, octarus and
duodecimus are ordinal numbers used
as adjectives, signifying fourth, eighth,
and twelfth, respectively. The ter
limitations in "to,"" yo," and mo" in
place Of tbs, rus, and mus, simply
imply that these adjectives are used
in one OF the oblique cases instead the
nominative. QudrtO, octdrO, duOdecimO,
sextus, decimo or, as they are some
times abbreviated, 4 to, vo, Il mo,
and 16 mo, have no reference in them
selves to books or the number of folds
in a sheet of paper. Like the term
per centum, or per cent, they may be
applied to anything which is suscepti-
bic OF increase at some regular rate
agreed upon by those using them.
The common expressions fourfold,
eightfold, twelvefold and siXteenfold,
now wholly English but originally
from the Anglo-Saxon instead of from
the Latin, might just as well be
adopted by publishers and bookbinders
as those already in use.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Irregular Correspondence of the Standard.)

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. 16, 1891.
The merry jingle of silver is the mu-
sic which the Senate has provided for
the people to dance to, by the adoption
of the free coinage substitute for the
Financial bill, which went through in
spite of the determined and extraordi-
nary opposition of the Administration
and the Republican leaders in the
Senate.
The Democratic party has been
committed to free coinage, rs far as
the votes of all the Senators of the
party with one experimentation, of
Md.,) can do SO, while the Republican
party, of the Eastern and Middle
States, are by the same token commit
ted against it. On this question of
finance, the most important in every
country, the Republicans of the west
and northwest, if the votes of their
Senators represent their views and the
presumption is that they do, seem to
be in accord with the Democrats and
the Farmers Alliance, which is a
much more powerful factor in this
matter than most people believe.
The most sensational feature OF the
debate which preceded the adoption of
the free coinage amendment, was the
speech of Senator ingalls, in favor of
free coinage. 1t was more than that
it was most speciously made plea to
the Farmers Alliance legislature OF
Kansas to re-elect him to the senate.
1t was in many respects the best and
most brilliant Grafton ever delivered by
Mr.. ingalls,, and had he not have al
lowed his hatred of the South to in
veigle him into defense of the Force
bill, which, by the way, again has the
right of way in the Senate at its Open

TIE following exquisite little poem
which appeared anonymously in theS'
columns several years ago, was writer
by Adelaide Moore, the talented actress
who will perform at OLYMPIA Thcater
next Tuesday evening:
BAEY'S PRAYLE
d" Now lay mc--aud the eyes.
The roguish eyes of laughing blue,
Full of mischief, are enclosed
Ere the prayer il half way through.
Down 10 slecp'-and the lids
Like white curtains, are let down;
For the bahys eyes have caught
Just glimpse of mamma frUwn.
- pray the Lord my soul to keep"
The rosy lips say soitly now,
May the Holy Father keep
Always as pure that snowy brow.
If should die before | wake
Solemn words softly said,
May the Heavenly Father spare
Long our little darlings head
81 pray the Lord my soul to take
All Father when that hour shall come,
May Thou indeed he very near
And take him To his angel home
And this ask for Jesus sake
oh baby. prayers AZ pure as thine.
Surely God will always hear,
When offered mt His holy shrinc
Amen'-and at the last sweet word,
Laughing Is raised the golden head
All, little does the baby know
The solemn words that he has said

A LONDON Dispatch, of the 2Ist gives
appalling accounts of restitution con-
tinuing in the east district of Wolyer-
hampton. The charity officers report
that the people are in state of starva-
ton, and in some instances it is actual
ly dangerous to administer food, owing
to the peril attendant upon the raven
GUS hunger when the food is first
offered. The clergymcn say it is i'm
possible to describe the misery that
prevails. Homes are without fire,
rooms without furniture, women have
only single garment covering them,
and the children are almost as bad. A
good deal of misery in Birmingham
and other places is due to work being
cut off by the new American tariff.
In London n verdict of death from
starvation is returned in numerous
cases. Some laborers, who applied to
a magistrate for relief, said they sold
even their boots for bread. In many
years there has not been a more terri
bic winter for the poor, and yet Lon
don Is full of charitable societies.

A Bon Nor BY Tom CARROLL.-It is
a notorious fact that both the Squire
and Calkins factions KEEP" open house"

had rooms which were ordinarily de-
nominated the headquarters, which
were nothing more nor less than gin
mills, where paid attendants dispensed
the O-be-joyful, like the hope OF saliva
ton" without money and without
price" The other day. Calkins man
who had just been tuning his whistle
at his candidates expense, broke
through a crowd gathered around
Tom Carroll, the Democratic nominee
for complimentary vote, exclaiming:
81 say, Tom, where are your head
quarters ?" "My headquarters. sir"
responded Tom without a moments
hesitation, care in the hearts of TWEEN
ty-one good Democrats" The Repub-
lican stood for q moment dazed by an
idea that had never before entered his
Uranium, and with an Oh-ah-yes,

quarters for another "eye-opencr."

A Relic Of Olden Times.

Mr.. Frost has in his store window
an object which carries one back at
least six generations, to the times
when gunpowder was just becoming
known as a means of warfare. 1t is
what is known as blunderbuss. 1t
Is about three feet long, with a short,
thick barrel, made of brass, and a muz-
zle that opens outward like the larger
end OF cOrnet. 1t is not handsome
fircarm, and the beholderis impressed
with the idea that when properly
loaded with slugs, its execution might
be quite as ugly as is looks. Bob has
doubtless been tired out with ques-
lions about the unique relic, for he
has hung to the muzzle of the old
timer card which reads;
THIS Is JoHNNYs Gun.
ASK us no questions, and
We'll tell you no lies

kALAKAUA, king of the Sandwich
Islands, died in San Francisco last
Tuesday. His visit to this country
was partially for the benefit of his
health. 1t is thought that his trip
through Southern California had over
taxed his strength, and that cold
contracted at Santa Barbara was the
immediate cause of his death.

The State Legislature.

Very little business. was done in
either house Wednesday forenoon.
At II O'Clock sharp the Senate filed
into the Representative hall, to take
final action on the matter of selecting
an U. S. Senator. The lobby was
densely packed with spectators, when
Presidept Wilson assumed the gavel
and called the joint convention to or.
der.
The enthusiasm of some of the
members was shown by the first call
of the roll, which was simply to ascer-
tain If aquOrum was present, and so
stated by the presiding officer. Sen
atOr Austin heads the list of member
ship and when his name was called a
stentOrian response was Immediately
made =" w. III. Calkins" This literal
ly brought down the house," and
laughter being infectious, doubtless
removed some of the wrinkles in
brows that have been set for many
days on the perplexities of the politi-
cal situation.
The first ballot was decisive and re-
suited in the election of Watson c.
Squire by the following vote:

to France in wages, stoppage of travel,
trade and blighting crops will probably

the churches to keep the doors open

If United States Senator cannot
find time to perform his official duties
and at the same time attend club
meetings and dinner parties, on a
short term, when he has all the risks
of a reelection like chestnut burr
under his crupper, what in the name
of all that is good are we to expect OF
a man who has six years term be-
fore him, free from the restraint
which the popular will imposes, and
with the instincts and habits of a
voluptuary to sway his inclinations on
all matters OF individual preference?
