He IS TIRED.
From The Rmporia Republican.

From The RmpoEia Republican.
The editor Of the national n.~.,.
organ OF the alliance, published :.
WASHINGTON, is sick Of his party and o.
his mission in journalism, and has A..
termlned to join the republican partv
II reports be true. He is quoted ~
saying: II am going to Join a oartx
that stands for something. which b.s
positive views, ard knows how to advo
cate and how to defend them; which
seeks and generally secures prosperity
for the people. and which usually WINS.
am tired OF chasing the will-o'.the.
wisps OF the third party movements
The leaders in them pretend that thew
are endeavoring to rid the people OF
boss rule. In reality they are seeking
to elevate themselves to boss shin.
which. if successful, would be more ty.
rannical because more ignorant than
the nominations Of the leaders or of the
bosses in the two great parties"
Undoubtedly this expresses the con-
victions of thousands of good men who
have been honestly seeking reform
through the medium of the alliance
party. A refoen movement, to retain
the confidence of honest citizens, must
give evidence of reform purposes of a
practical and sensible sort. When
nothing is apparent, however, but some
wild experimental schemes and gen.
eral scramble for Office, it 10 not surpris-
ing that good men are becoming dis.
gusted and returning to the only
party that has accomplished any genu-
inc reform work for the past thirty
years. No patriotic citizen, no matter
what his politics, can contemplate in
his quiet moments the grand achieve
ments Of the republican party without
q feeling Of pride that he is one of the
in this great kingdom of the
people.

Syrup

Martinsvil1e, NJ, Methodist Par

your remedy, Boschee's German
Syrup, was made about fourteen
years ago, when I contracted a Cold
which resulted in Hoarseness and
a Cough which disabled me from
filing my pulpit for a number of
Sabbaths. After trying a Physician,
without obtaining relief-I cannot
say now what remedy he prescribed
Il saw the advertisement of your

received such quick and permanent
help from it that whenever we have
had Throat or Bronchial troubles

ARE THESE LlNcoLN.s woRDs7

To the Kansas City Star.
In recent issue OF the New Nation
find this alleged quotation from Presi-
dent Lincoln:
II zee, in the near future" said Abra-
ham Lincoln in 1865. "a crisis approach
ing that unnerves me and causes me to
tremble for the safety of my country.
As result of the war corporations have
been enthroned, and an era of corrup-
ton in high places will follow, and the
money power will endeavor to prolong
it's reign by working upon the preju-
dices of the people until all wealth Is
aggregated in few hands and the re-
public is destroyed. I feel at this mo-.
menr more anxiety for the safety of my
country than ever before, even in the
midst of the war;"
The same extract has been floating
through the journals Of anarchy and
socialism for several years, and has been
favorite paragraph with pessimistic
orators in their appeals to the passions
of the poor.
1t does not appear in any of the pub
lished messages, speeches or letters of
Lincoln. The internal evidence is
against it's authenticity. The words,
the style, the construction are like
nothing in his composition. Mr.. Nico-
lay, his former secretary, has never
seen nor heard such expressions in the
writings or utterances of President
Lincoln.
Evidently it is a malignant and clum-
sy forgery. Yours,

WAGES ARE RISING,
rom the Chicago journal.

From the Chicago journal.
Wages are going up for goods pro-
tected by the Mckinley tariff. At the
Barnaby mill, Fall River, wages for
weaving have been increased as follows:
On 55 cent goods to SO cents per cut,
and on 81 cent goods to 80 cents. The
agent has agreed to remove the warps
from the looms on which $1.3O per cut
was being paid. The managers of the
Wamsutta mill No. 5, New Bedford,
Mass, have voluntarily increased the
wages on various grades. On certain
patterns OF goods the increase amounts
to 9 cents per cut The same increase
has been made in plain and fancy goods,
scarcity Of help being the reason as
signed. At recent meeting of furnace
owners of the Mahoning Valley, held at
Youngstown, Ohio. it was decided to
advance the wages of all employees 10
per cent.

Is A CHECK MONEY?

From the Mcpherson. Kan. Republican.
According to the theory of certain
people, whatever will pay debt is
money; whatever will not cannot be so
classified. In other words, the power
Of debt-psying is the sole criterion.
Some days ago, somebody paid Us Q
check for $3.50. Shortly afterward We
paid 1t out to another party. Yesterday
IN one Of the stores we saw man pay
that same check to another party. In.

the Iotunda, 100 feet In diameter.
This is surmounted by a mammoth
glass dome, 100 feet high. All through
the main vestibule statuary has been
designed, illustrative of Agricultural
industry. Similar designs are grouped
about all of the grand entrances In the
most elaborate manner. The corner
pavilions are surmounted by domes 90
feet high, and above these tower groups
of statuary. The design for these
domes is that of three women, of her.
culean proportions, supporting nam
moth globe.
To the southwark of the Agricultur-
al Building Is spacious structure de-
voted chiefly to Live Stock and
Agricultural Assembly Hall. This
building is conveniently near one of the
stations of the elevated railway. 1t is
very handsome buil1lng, and was
designed to be the common meeting
point for all persons interested In live
stock and agricultural pursuits. On
the first floor, near the main entrance of
the building, is located bureau of
information, in charge of attendants,
who furnish visitors with all necce essar y
Information in regard to the Assembly
Hall and the main Agricultural Build
ing, as well as other features of the
Exposition. This floor also contains
suitable committee and other rooms
for the different live stock associations
or every character, where such associa-
tons can meet and have their secretar-
les in constant attendance, thus afford
ing this important industry ample head
quarters near the Live Stock exhibit
and the Agricultural Building. On
this door there are also large and hand
somely equipped walting-rooms for

ladies', lounging-rooms for gentlemen,
and ample toilet facilities. Broad stair
ways lead from the first floor into the
Assembly-room, which has a seating
capacity of about l, ,501. This Assembly
room furnishes facilities for lectures,
delivered by gentlemen eminert in
their special fields OF work embracing
every interest connected with live stock
agricultural, and allied Industries.
Such building was never erected at
any Exposition, and It's construction
here shows that the Board of Directors
purposed affording every desirable facil.
ity that they could furnish to aid the
great Live Stock and Agriculture a.
interests.
Close by the Agricultural Building
and Its Annex are buildings for the
Forestry and Dairy exhibits. These
measure, respectively, 200 by 500 and
90 by 200 feet. In the Forestry Build
ing the visitor may see very extensive
exhibit illustrating forestry resources
and products. In the Diary Building
he may be pupil of a diary school,
scientifically conducted and may watch
the tests which will determine the
respective merits Of different breeds OF
cattle as milk producers.
The Agricultural Building covers
more than nine acres, and It's Annex
about 35 acres. The Forestry and
Dairy Buildings together cover about
three acres The Live Stock buildings,
which will, of course, be of inexpensive
construction, cover about thirty acres.
All of these structures together cost
nearly 81, 100000 and afford most ex-
tensIve and gratifying provision for
showing aad subserving the Agricultur-
al and allied interests.
