Electrical Engineer Fredericks, of The
Davenport s. Rock Is aud Railway com.
paay, is doing neat lob on Moline ave.
nue. in properly adjusting, straightenipe
and strengthening the trolley wires over
the tracks. When the double ,rscts
were moved out TO the middle of the
tboroughfar, it became necessary to move
the trolley wires over but in the hurry
the latter were only Temporarily adjusted
Under former method: in tri.city street
railway management. this temporary ar.
rsngement would never have been changed
until it fell down. But this is not Mr..
FTederick's idea. He believes in the
economy of keeping things neat and in
repair, aud in pursuance of this policy he
has force following the PAYERS and put
ting his wires in substantial condition.
If Mr.. Fredericks will continue that policy
and look after the minor details of keen.
ing the entire equipment in repair he will
save the company more than his salary
the first year. Il is strange
fact, but nevertheless true one.
thst none of the tri-city street
railway companies learned the economy
of keeping up repairs until the syndicate
took hold Of them, aud what at first
might have required quarter or dollar
to replace was let to Tul until it amounted
to dollars. and finally the car was not
worth repairing, This appears to have
been the great trouble with those to
whom DR.. Allen has estrusted his lines in
Davenport, and cars new year ago have
now the appearance of many years of
wear and tear The condition of the car
is that which most affects tie patrons of
the system and their comfort should be
the first consideration of the company.
SQch neglect as has been manifested
heretofore, in not keeping up the appear
ances ard repairs of cars and right of way,
does not look TO the interests of the
pu6ic-or the company. The new order
of things will be welcomed by all around

A Merchant Marine.

The first move under the Postal Aid
Law enacted by the last Congress was
made during the past week by Post
master General Wanamaker advertising
for bids covering all principal ports of
the world. The intent of the act is to
carry the American flag to ports where
it is seldom seen and to encourage the
construction of American ships for the
foreign carrying trade.
Besides the extension of the present
ocean mail service, improvement of
time and service. vessels of the first.
second and third classes are required to
carry at least four six inch guns and to
be capable of service IN case of war.
Vessels are also required to be of
American build, Differed by Americans.
with at least one half of the crew native,
and 20 carry a certain number of
American boys as apprentices or cadets.
About - new vessels will be required
representing tonnage of 154, 900 tons,
and probable outlay for the builders
of S3O,O00,0O0. Only four of these are
in the fourth class and will not need to
be armed. Three years is the limit al
lowed for vessels to go into commission.
and while many of the old lines will
comply with regulations at once some
of the large new vessels will require that
time to be built in.
This is the beginning of an American
Merchant Marine and it will not be long
before the stars and stripes will float in
all ports and command the respect due
to the great service of a great nation.

simple vegetable remedy for the

ton. Bronchitis, Catarrh, Asthma and
all throat and Lung Affections, also a
positive and radical cure for Nervous
Debility and all Nervous Complaints,

felt it his duty to make it known to his

TO INTEREST EUROPE.

Five special commissioners sailed
from New York on July 9Th, with the
purpose of arousing throughout Europe
an active interest in the Worlds Column
bian Exposition. Much has been ac-
complshed in this direction by the
Department of Publicity and Promotion,
beginning that the best results could be
obtained only through personal vista
ton by influential men, officially repre-
senting the Exposition. The time has
come when it is believed that the inter-
ests of the Exposition abroad will suffer
severely if there is any further delay in
disratcbing such commissioners upon
the mission indicated. Accordingly,
they starte d at once. Those who went
were: Judge Lindsay of Kentucky, a
member of the National Commission
A. G. Bullock, an influential citizen of
Massachusetts; Hon. Benjamin Butter
worth, Secretary and Solicitor General
of the Exposition; Ferd. w. Peck, Pres
dent of the Auditorium Association, and
one of the Exposition directors; and
Mai. M. P. Handy, Chief of the Depart
mont of Publicity and Promotion.
These gentlemen, between them, will
visit the capitals and chief cities of all
European nations. and will confer with
government officials and such foreign
Exposition Commioners as have been
appointed, and will see that they fully
understand how great the Exposition
will be, and that they have all desired
information concerning it. The party
will be abroad about two months.
Meantime, Gen. Grosvenor. of Ohio;
Prof. Ellis, of Oberlin College, and John
M. Butler, of Philadelphia, as Special
Commissioners of the United States
| Treasury Department, will make tour
of Europe to explain to official and 9TH
ers the customs regulations under which
foreign exhibits may be brought into
this country.

BITE THE End OF YOUR CIGAR.

DR.. Fred Wilson and friend went into
a Broadway cigar store the other day.
The friend selected a dark Havana, put
one end between his lips. rolled it bit
to moisten it, then put the tip in the
metal cutter on the counter and clipped
it off. He then placed the clipped end
in his mouth and drew in once or twice
before lighting. He coughed several
times as he lighted the weed. Pardon
me-" said the doctor, ''you should never
do il that way. Here is the method. .
The doctor picked up another cigar, bit
the end off with his teeth. placed the
other end in his mouth and blew smart
ly once or twice and then leisurely
lighted it. ''You notice." said the doc
tor, Il did not cough. You did. The
philosophy of it is this: when the of a
cigar is bitten off it brushes a small
portion of the tobacco into powder. If
you put the end Immediately into your
mouth and iilhale, the small particles
are almost certain to lodge somewhere
in tho throat and cause irritation. That
makes you cough, and, if your tonsils
happen to be In the right direction for
it, case of bronchitis or worse may
compel you to call me in. l never use
the clipper that it used by the frequent
ers of cigar store. The majority of
the men moisten the tip of cigar, as
you did, before cutting it. Now you
never know the condition of the man
who preceded you Some of the moist
ure from his Ii ps remains on the cutter,
and your cigar may take on portion
of 1t.

yer standard alone, demonetize gold
and detach the United States from the
great commercial nations Of the world.
1.-The unreasonable demand for the
free coinage of silver has nothing to dc
with the reasonable demand for the in
crease Of the volume of money required
bv the increase of business and popula-
ton Of the United States. We have pro-
yided by existing law for the increase OF
money to an amount greater than the
increase of business and population, but
even if more money is required, there
are many ways Of providing it without
cheapening the purchasing power of our
money or making q wide difference be-
tween the kinds of money in circulation
based on silver and gold. More than
92 per cent. of all payments are now
made in checks, drafts and other COM
mercial devices. All kinds If cireula-
ting notes are now equal to each other
and are kept at the gold standard by re-
demption and exchange. Our money
and our credit are now equal to or bet
ter than those of the most civilized
nations of the world. Our productions
of every kind are increasing, and it
seems to me almost a wild lunacy for
US to disturb this happy condition by
changing the standard of all contracts,
including special contracts payable in
gold and again paying gold to the cap
italists, and silver, at an exaggerated
price, to the farmer, laborer and PEN
sioner. | would not be true to my con-
victions of what is best for the good of
my constituents if did not frankly and
firmly stand by my convictions. what
ever may be the effect upon me person
ally My greatest obligations have
been to the farmers of Ohio, and
would be unworthy of their trust and
confidence if did not beseech them to
stand by the financial policy which will
secure them the best results for their
labor and productions and the comfort
and prosperity of all classes alike.

Hamlin's Trout Brook i.
lewiston Mel JoUrnal.

MIR. Hamlin was one of Names noted
fishermen, and one little yearly excur-
sion of his used to puzzle the knowing
ones not little. Every year he pre-
vailed upon the officials of a certain
Maine railroad to let him off an early
morning train in the middle of dense
forest. He would disappear in the
woods, and when the train returned in
the evening Mr.. Hamlin would be
found waiting beside the track to be
taken aboard. His basket on these oc-
casions was always found to be filled
with magnificent trout weighing any,
where around a pound to two pounds
and over. Nobody else knew of trout
brook in the vicinity that gave promise
of any such trout as he got, and as the
old gentleman ALWAYS persisted in going
alone the exact locality has remained a
mystery.

The Working Girls Dress.

The false predictions or falsehoods of
tariff '.reformers." circulated to infu-
enee voters last fall, are returning to
plague their authors now. The falsitier
may have thought the voters would
foreget before the next election his pre-
diction last November that prices of all
kinds of manufactured goods would
Jump and soar under the new tar
iff law But we do not propose to let
them forget. Instead of advancing in
price, manufactures have positively de-
clined under the operation of the new
tariff.
Among other cotton goods prints
are prehaps most largely and univer-
sally used by the poor. Probably there
is not a workingman's family in the
United States which haa not from ten to
a hundred yards of the goods in use.
Prices of prints, therefore. particularly
concern the working people. THE
Press to-day proposes TO show how
their prices have change since the Nc
Kinley bill became law. We take the
wholesale prices of dry goods as pub
lished by representative trade paper
or April 5. 1890, six months before the
tariff was changed, and compare them
with the prices of the identical grades
of fabrics as published last week by the
same paper. the Dry Goods Economist

Sherman on Silver.

URder the date of July Z, Senator
Sherman. of Ohio, has written letter
in which he says:
II can appreciate the earnest demand
of the producers of silver bullion that
the United States should pay ) 20 an
ounce for silver bullion, which in the
markets of the world has been for a Sc
ries Of years worth only 81 an ounce,
sometimes little more, sometimes a
little less. But | cannot appreciate why
any farmer or other producer should de-
sire that the government should pay for
any article more than its market value.
II would be much better that the gov
eminent should pay a dollar bushel
for wheat when il is worth less, but no
sensible farmer would desire the govern
ment to embark in such enterprise.
The government should purchase the
article it needs, like all other purchas
ers, at the market price. The distinc-
ton sought to be made in favor of silver
is without foundation. The government
now buys in the open market more than
the entire domestic production of silver
bullion because it needs it for coinage,
ard as the basis of treasury notes.
gladly contributed my full share to this
measure and would do anything in my
power to advance the market value OF
silver to its legal ratio to gold. But this
can only be done in concert with other
commercial nations. Tbs attempt to dc
it by the United States alone would only
demonstrate our weakness. 70 the ex.
tent that the enormous demade made
by the existing law advances the price
of silver, the producers derive the bene
fit, end to-day the production of silver
Is probably the most profitable in tn,
