Kentucky at the Worlds Fair.

The Kentucky building at the Worlds Fair
will be typical representation of Southern
Colonial mansion one of the distinctive features
of which is great pllared porches or verandas.
Exclusive Of these porches the building will
measure about Is by 80 feet. The State will
make an exhibit of tobacco in all its forms
from the seed up to the matured and manufac-
tured leaf. There will be exhibits of different
varieties of plants in various stages of growth,
and illustrations of the manner of shipping
and handling the weed from the time the seed
is put in the ground until the produce goes into
the chewer's or smokers mouth. The people
may be assured that it will be the greatest ex-
hibtion ever given of tobacco in the world
The various ways in which tobacco is used in
manufacture will also be feature of the dis
play.
The celebrated blue grass of Kentucky will
also be displayed in the exhibit which that
State will make at the Worlds Fair. The dis
play will possess additional interest from the
fact that the sod and grasses are being collected
from historical spots in the State, such as the
battlefield of Perryvile the home of Henry
Clay, and the birthplace of Lincoln.

The Strikers Big Wages.

Lewis 8. Gillette, President of the Gillette
Herzog Manu- featuring Company, Of Mime
apolis. has returned home from Homestead,
Pa, and tells some interesting facts in connec.
ton with the strike He says that the impress
sion has improperly prevailed that the strike
was caused by a reduction in the wages of the
common workmen. This, Mr.. Gillette says, is
not true: 1.-THE 240 men who have been re-
duced," he says, were the head rollers or
sub-contractors, who have been making, strange
as it may seem, from $40 to $50 day; some
have made as much as $4,000 year, all owing
to the improved machinery, which increases
the output of piecework. These head rollers
themselves employ men, and are the leaders of
the Association of Amalgamated Steel and
Iron Workers. The reduction of these extrava-
CANT wages was deemed advisable and so was
undertaken, with the present strike as result.
The reduction would still have left the head
rollers handsome pay"

The Republican party in Arkansas knocked
the fusion question in the head last week in
the State Convention at Little Rock. Gen.
Powell Clayton directed that ex-Mayor Will
liam L. Whipple, of Littie Rock, be nominated
for Governor, together with candidates for all
the minor offices. and this was done. The
ticket is the first straightout one which the
Republicans have putIup in Arkansas in 10
years. The Peoples Party advocates denounce
it loudly, but say they are glad fusion was not
effected, as they prefer to fight both the old
parties and thus build up strong organization
in the State.

SOME CLIPPINGS.

The Palestine Picayune observes
That speech of Hogg's must surely
have been tangled up with that dog
law.
TIE News has been waiting for
some one to explain what that speech
was tangled up with.
The Tyler Record says.
1.-The commission is settled fac
tor 10 Texas politics No one wants
to destroy it, but the people are clam
mering for their rights in the selection
of her commissioners. Texans are
too chivalrous, too democratic, too in
telligent. too capable of attending TO
its affairs to delegate this authority
and patronage to one servant. "lu a
multitude of counsel here is much
wisdom" and tho people demand to
say who shall serve them. PateInsl.
ism seems to be the tactics OF some of
the present administration, but it
won't work"
This is from a Tyler paper which
spe axis for the people not the politi.
clans.
The Austin Evening News says
If Judge Gerald is as successful
making sledgehammer speeches in his
race for congress as in the Legislature,
he will give Mr.. Pendleton as much
as he can do.
He has two other candidates be-
sides Mr.. Pendleton to keep busy, but
he succeeds admirably. They are on
his platform and they don't know ex-
actly why they are there 1t is hard
work to explain thing you don't ex
actly understand,
The San Antonio Express says.
1.-The governors complaint during
the session of the legislature that his
canvass was suffering by reason of
his inability to take the stump, does
not appear to have been justified
Now that he is spreading himself for
all he is worth, his loss of popularity
is only accelerated
The Express is right. Clark has
gained faster since HOgg tool, the
stump than before.

If Hogg had succeeded in Saving

PURE LARD BILL A FRAUD.

Inc OIL WulCu phsseu thS UNIV
States senate last month under the
title of Psddock's pure food bill has
a very pretty name, but it is neverthe
les. pronounced a fraud, says the
Houston Post.
1T is the same bill which failed in
the last congress when the objections
to it were sufficiently pointed out aud
which have not been covered by
amendments.
The bill passed the senate and went
to the house simply because those
interested in defeating such a
measure were not there TO pro
test against it with such force
as would be effective, although Sena-
tors Palmer, Vest and few other
Democrats pointed out lnviucible
reasons WHY it should not become a
law. On the face of it it looks like
good bill, meant to protect the public
against authorizations of food products
and the sale of unworthy patent nos
trums. Yet, as the New York Sun
sptly says, it opens the way for the
most offensive and unnecessary in
QUESTION into the business of private
citizens, attending to their own bust
ness in their own states; and it con-
fers upon the department of agricul-
ture extraordinary powers. 1t in
trusts to changing body of experts
or inexperts, to be known as the food
section of the chemical division of
Mr.. Rusk's department. the duty of
or having analysed
of food and drugs
exposed for sale in any state or terri
tory other than that in which they
were manufactured, or in a foreign
country if they are in the original
package 1t makes mi.demeanor
punishable by fine and Imprisonment,
he introduction into one state or ter
-itory from another of any food or drug
ldultersted or improperly branded.
A drug, under the provisions of this
'ct, is any medicine, internal or ex.
.ernal. A food is anything plain or
mixed, simple or compound, which is
lsed for food or drink by mortal man.
Every person who ships food or drugs
rom one state to another, or exposes
he same for sale, must furnish sam
pies to the agents of the food section
Of the chemical division of the de
partment of agriculture.
This is a Capitalization of power in
a department of the government at
Washington for which the people are
not prepared. They prefer that the
states should take care of the food or
drugs that are manufactured and sold
within their limits. Such a law would
strike out Of existence a vast number
of preparations known under the title
of proprietary articles which are now
staple articles of commerce and this
would be done in the interest, perhaps,
of some other articles.
The Chicago "pure lard bill, which
was conceived in the interest of few
western hogs and aimed at the
Southern cotton seed oil industry, is
not yet forgotten.

HOUSE NOTES.

The ADVERTISER has received the
following communication which it
is only just to Mr.. Ashford to pub
lish:
"MR. EDITOR: Rep. Ashford COM
plains to me concerning your refer
ence to him as a small boy en-
gagged in the diversion of prodding
the ministerial monkeys through
the bars of the cabinet cage. He
declares that your remarks are un-
justifiable; that whatever he may
THINK of their Excellencies, he has
not publicly SAID that they are
monkeys. Col. CARTER,
of Gainesville. }"
Colonel Carter also says that
"Their Excellencies, anxious to re-
tain their seats, are rendering for
continuance of confidence, and are
determined to underbid all COM
petitors."
1t is evident that many an OPP
portunity of getting gloriously and
ecstatically drunk, is lost to the
long-suffering denizens of this be-
nighted community, through the
dearth of saloons in the suburbs.
