Ar,un,cuAr,oN BUREAU.


A number of tho republican papers OF
the state are objccting TO the re-estah-
lishmcnt of the Office of commissioner
of immigration on the ground that the
republican party cannot afford TO ere
ate ANY new offices. While there is
some truth in the proposition above
stated, and the republicans must go
slow as to expenses, it is also true that
the state need. an immigration bureau
and needs it bad. The FREE PRESS is
not SO particular as to means as re
suits; if the object sought to be attained
by commissioner of immigration can
be attained in any other manner, il IS
all right. If the Legislature ees..tit Ia

Many ladies have used our machines
twenty to thirty years in ,hertamily work,
and are still using the original machines
we furnished them generation ago.
Many OF our machines have run more
than twenty years without repairs, other
than needles. With proper care they
never wear out, and seldom need repair.
We have built sewing machines for
moreatlan forty years and have constantly
improved them. We build our machines
on honor, and they are recognized every
where as the most accurately fitted and
finely finished sewing machines in the
world. Our latest, the mo. g." is the
result Of our long experience. In COM

Every Republican should heartily support the ticket nominated at Minne- apOlis. At present some of them may feel disappointed at the result of the work, but they should not cherish this feeling. No man should sulk. The Republican party is greater than any one man in it, and the party rather than any party leader deserves the loyalty and support of all Republi- cans. Republicans have nothing to gain by deserting the party at this stage. Not one of them cay say that he is ashamed of the Harrison administra- tion or that he believes that it has not been honorable and creditable to the country.
 The friends of the free-silver coinage have nothing to hope for from the Dem ocrsts. The overwhelming majority in the house does not favor free coinage.
 President Harrison is in favor of the en- larged use of silver for money. He has shown this by calling an international congress to consider measures to insure the parity between gold and silver for use as money throughout the world. By calling this conference he took a long step towards bimetallism.

Greece, left his realm after the Greek elections to attend the golden wedding of his royal father and mother at Copen- hagen. The elections demonstrated the extraordinary hold the king has on the affections of his people. Delyannis, the minister whose cabinet King George had dismissed, used every means in his pow CT to arouse the people into voting for Delyannis partisans for parliament, but his endeavors fell fat, us those of any demagogue always do sooner or later. The voters stood by King George with enthusiasm aud sustained the policy of NJ. Tricoupis, the former minister, who will now again direct affairs. As soon as the result of the elections became known on the London Stock exchange the price of Greek securities advanced nine points. Greece apparently grazed the edge of revolution, as the fight of Delyannis was agaSpst the constitutional right of the king to use his royal pre- rogative to dissolve a cabinet that had become obnoxious to him. M, Tricoupis managed the finances of the Greek king dom better than any one else has suc' ceeded in doing.
