THE OUTLOOK SPLENDID.

Within a year there has been enor nous growth in the popular confidence in and respect for the administration of President Harrison, and in the pubic estimation and regard for the president himself. This has almost silenced small criticisms. The commonplace sneers at the president about his grandfather do not go. It is in the democratic par ty that incapacity for business is ob- vious, and faction has declared itself. The house, two~thirds democratic, is an object lesson, teaching that the party responsiblefor it is incapable of straight business and without sound principal, and that to place all departments of the government in such hands would be dangerous experiment.. Under the conditions the republicans can conclus. lively carry the country, and there is public consciousness, itself a tremend- ous force, and that is the safe thing to do. It is false and a folly to say MT. Blaine renouLces agaIn the candidacy for the presidency because he expects defeat. It is precisely the other way. He foreSees victory, and knowing him. self, prefers to pursue the path he is on His leadership will not be lacking. It will be the more. vivid and potential be- cause its position of unselfshness will give him in greater measure than ever the love of millions, whose devotion must find other manifestation than In striving flor the presidency for him. As MT. Blaine makes his bow in terms most simple and sincere-studiously avoiding a..shadow of suggestion o.his great constitutency-repn success is in the air, and republicans turn to President Harrison with confidence and pride.-Murat Halstead,

What is brighter and more attractive shan a bed or trellis of nasturtiumsi If you wish to grow the plants ia bed t is necessary to get the Tom Thumb varieties, that do not grow over foot nigh. It always seems to us, however, that the nasturtium's essential beauty .ies i'll its climbing habits, and that the lew hybrid dwarf varieties are not aS attractive as the vines. If the nastur- hum seeds are planted now in a box of sandy loam and set in d sunny window, and transplanted when the ground is settled, they will begin to blossom early n the summer.
 If you wish abundance of blossoms you must pick off great many of the leaves and never allow any flowers to go to .eed. A very beautiful variety of flow- CTS can be obtained by planting ''scar let" dark maroon and yellow nastur- tiums together. They will not always remain exactly as they were planted, but the variety obtained in specimens Dlotched and striped with the different shades is very attractive. The leaves and some of the flowers of the nastur- tium, mixed with a large proportion of lettuce, make very acceptable salad.
 If you wish to raise the seed vessels tor pickles it is better to raise the regu tar vegetable garden vines for this pur- pose alone. The seeds of the new orna- mental varieties are not any better for pickles, and if the flowers are allowed to drop and the seed vessels mature it ex- hausts the vines so much that they do not give such an exuberant wealth Of bloom as they do when the flowers arS picked of as soon as they tada.-Nev York Trit

ON last Tuesday, the first steps to- wards the establishment in southern Colorado or northern New Mexico lof a national sanitarium for the treatment of consumption, were taKen by Repre- sentative Cogswell, of Massachusetts, who introduced bill with that object in view. The measure provides for the appointment, by the president, of com mission of three or more physicians, Who shall visit Colorado and New Mex ico for the purpose of choosing the most eligible site for such an institution. A list will be furnished the commission Of the abandoned military stations within the limits named, so that one of these stations may be selected for the pur- pose named. The report of the comms- sion will be due within six months after the passage of the act. Fifty thousand dollars is appropriated for the repair and maintenance of the military site selected. The bill was referred to the committee on commerce. This IS cer- tainly a movement in the right dlrec~ tion; and it would seem to us that II de- cision is made on the merits of the case. no place can compare favorably with Fort Union. Climate, location, build IT gs, are all in favor of that place; but Colorado is rich in wealth and influence, and she will secure the national sani- tarium if possible.-Daily N. M. Optic.
 Apropos of the foregoing we would like to know what has become of our representative. Has he forgotten that Arizona is the finest land upon which the sun ever shone, and that the earth from center to circumference, can show no fairer skies or more health giving atmosphere? Neither Colorado nor New Mexico can compare with southern Arizona for sauatory purposes, and be- fore anything is done Arizona should be gwen consideration. If, as stated Tn the Optic, committee of three physic- ians are to visit New Mexico and Color ado, Ito determine at what point nation al sanitarium is to be established, we would like to know by what manner of means Arizona is to be left out and her best of all claims to be given ceHsidera- tion. Our worthy representative is probably suffering from another sprained leg and Arizona suffers tfrom neglect in consequence.

STATISTICS just made public show that in a single day forty-seven banks in New York city loaned over S297, ,0O0,- 900 on city real estate and other secur- Ities. In Chicago in one day twenty one banks loaned SS7,OOOOOO. Nine banks in St. Louis, loaned in one day S27,OO0,CO0. These figures show that great borrowers are the merchants and manufacturers living in cities, and they prove also that they are doing a big business. Otherwise they could have no use for these large sums and would not borrow them. A vast amount of business is done by mer who, lacking sufficient means of their own, have to work with borrowed capital. Farmers also borrow, but not % the same extent as city people, and as a rule they use their credit Co much greater advantage. Official reports show that over so per cent of the farm mortgages which have been examined were incurred for the purchase of additional real estate and nearly all of the remaining 20 per cent. was to make improvements, buy live stock, or invest in some form. The money was borrowed because the farm CTS believed they could make more out of 1t than they would have to pay in in terest. The amount borro wed and spent for living expenses is significant.

STAND BY YOUR TOWN.

Under the foregoing coption the Gas troville Enterprise gets there with both feet, 1t SAYS:
 Stand by your town; remember in it you make your home. Stand by 1t as you would your home. Stand by it as you would your family, or your wife, for the town is your own, therefore never run it down. Give the town you live in of your best; give it the benefit of your experience in tke way of improvement and growth. Chicago don't need you to speculate on her city government but your own plain Jamestown Tor Tucson may need your help and sympathy. IT you don't like your town, clear out, and let somebody else ID. Don't be afraid of every dollar you invest in the way of ina provement fer not ten cent piece IS spent but there is some good that comes from it. Stand by all things that tend to advance the general good, and bitter ly stand against all who dare tori the town down. We believe every human being has an angel side, if one will oily take the pains to hunt it out, so while your town may have failings and lack many things, turn the angel side out every time. If your toan is worth any thing at all it deserves this much at your hands so stand by your town and let the other fellow sit on a cracker box and whistle, growl, talk and do noth- ing.

Proud of Her Occupatfcp.

The mid-Lent procession or lauhr dresses in Paris this year invested their particular carnival with much of the de- light that is often lacking in these de- generate times from public festivals. Mile. Sicard,, the queen of the laun- dresses, rode in a chariot at the head of the procession, clad in white satin and surrounded with roses and rosy camel lias. She is statuesque creature, tall, graceful and powerfully built, with the classic profile common in some parts of Provence. The gown, which was on ex- hibition at one of the iaundries, was really magnificent, and of the same ma terial as one recently made for the czarina.
 The creamy satin was Overlaid wltI fern leaves in gold, and the gown was copied from one worn by Anne of Aus tria. This queen of the washtub ana ironing table is the main support of hel brothers and sisters, and well deserved the applause to which she bowed so re- gally as the genius of hard Work. The other washer women rode i'll sayiy deco rated cars, preceded by bands of music. Other co-operations of women workers had their processions ill the cavalcade. The market women rode i'll landaus and were dressed in fantastic garb, copied from that worn by the male and female masqueraders of the court of Henri ILL. Paris Letts"

 Impossible, sir-church quite full!' The bishop calmly, but with emphasis repeated his orders.
 "Quite impossible!" repeated the bea dle. Il tell you. sir, the church is quite full"
 "Oh. but" was the rejoinder, "I won't preach if you don't!'

E THE democratic leaders of the house are trying to hatch up a compromise agreement that will stave off the open rupture which has been threatened for weeks between the silver and anti-silver democrats. Having failed in their at tempt to persuade the silver democrats to allow the free coinage bill to go over until after the presidential election, they are now at work upon the anti silver democrats with view to allowing the free coinage bill to be passed with as little debate as possible after the free binding-twine bill is disposed of by the house, and, although the antis have not yet fully agreed with that programme it looks as if they would have to do so unless they can get the republicans to vote with them. A democratic caucus was held on the night of the 26th, but no attempt was made to do anything definite.

Wire Finer Than Hair.

We are at work just now on some pretty small wire. It is 1-500th of an inch in djameter-fner than the hair or your head, great deal. Ordinary fine wire is drawn through steel plates, but
 that wouldn't do for this work, because if the hole wore away ever so little it would make the wire larger, and that would spoil the job. Instead, it is drawn through what is practically hole in a diamond, to which there is, of course, no wear. These diamond plates are made by woman in New York, who has a monopoly of the art in this country.
 The wire is then run through machinery, which winds it spirally with layer O. sill, thread that is .0015 of an inch in thickness-even finer than the wire, you see. This wire is used ill making the receiving instruments of ocean cables, the galvanometers used in testing cables and measuring insulation of covered wires.-Interview with a Manufacturer.

DEMOCRATIC senators are beginning to show considerable opposition to Senator Paddock's pure food bill, and as usual with democratic opposition, it has very himsy foundation, If indeed it has any at all. Senator Bates, of Tennessee, made a pretense of having discovered that great big political machine, with thousands of active agents in every sec tiou of the country, was concealed in the bifl. Senator Paddock made short work of that by calling attention to the fact that only s1OO,OOO was asked for by Secretary Rusk 10 carry out the pro visions of the bill for the first year, 8 sum that would not employ many thou sand political agents. Senator Coke, of Texas, then stated his objections, which were principally because he did not think it would prevent the adulteratIon Of food. Senator Paddock regards the passage of the bill by the senate as cer- tain.

Hill has certainly made rapid gains in congress, notwithstanding the statement, which should be taken with good deal of caution, that Brlce and German had withdrawn their adherence. Many be- heve that this statement has been put out for the purpose of heading off the Cry of "bossism," and that the triple al- liance is still in existence,
