SACRAMENTO, Sept. 6.-Owners OF trot-
ting horses have notified the State Agri-
cultural society that unless the entrance
fee is leveled to per cent all around,
they will at once withdraw all their
horses. The fee now is per cent where
more than eight horses enter, and 10 per
cent where there are less than that
number. The demand has created

original position that the Sherman
notes issued on silver bullion ought to
be redeemed in silver coin. and had
been forced out of the Cabinet as con-
sequence, he would have been the
next Democratic nominee for the Pres
idency with the chances favorable Tor

But he yielded. He showed the
same weakness which led him to accept
house and lot as a s.fee" from the
Louisville Lottery Company. Yielding,
lack of ability to resist temptation. has
always been his besetting weakness,

Poor Carlisle.

The country is at no loss to under
stand why such men as Senator Voor
hees of Indiana turned their coats t.
accommodate the Tory policy of ;
Wall street administration, but ther
are many who cannot understand at al
how John Griffin Carlisle should utter
ly repudiate this year all he said OF
finance last year and tie year before.
| It is indeed sad case to find man
who has had the confidence of the peo
pie to such an extent as he has, show
ing himself utterly unworthy of it.
..Can this be the man we knew and
trustep?" is what people ask wher
they see him attending Belshazzar
banquets in Wall street; when they
hear the applause and hand-clapping
from speculators, money lenders and
plutocrats as he announces that the
Wall street policy has triumphed and
that it's triumph is final and unchange-
able!
The people do not know how this
could have come about. They do not
understand it, and it is we'll they do
not. 1t is one of the saddest cases in
American history.
Mr.. Carlisle is naturally an amiable
man. All who know him like him.
He has never shown any great strength
of conviction--any marked faculty OF
adhering to principle, but for years
back he has been losing his moral fbre
and self-control. Every one who
knows him knows it and bitterly re-
grets it. He is not the Carlisle now he
was twenty ysars ago. Every one in
the City of Washington sees it and
knows who he is not.
After he had been appointed to the
Cabinet and had surrendered his life
position in the Senate, he lacked the
moral courage to stand for what he
had considered his principles. He
tried, but he was at once IOrceu lntO
position where he must either submit
absolutely to Mr.. Cleveland or get out
of the Cabinet. a
His successor had been elected in
Kentucky; he himself had grown old
and he had a nervous system which
had long been subjected to ruinous
overstrain. He could not think of re-
turning to private life at his age and
with his nervous weaknesses. Resist
ance meant his immediate election from
the Cabinet and probably his perma-
nent retirement from politics.
At least it must have looked so to
him, but it is as sure as.any thing can

Selling Offices.

At a full meeting of the Executive
Committee of the National Civil Ser
vice Reform Leagne the other day.
Carl Schurz presiding, the following
resolution was unanimously adopted:
The National Civil Service Reform
League, through its executive commit
tee, expresses its earnest remonstrance
against the bestowal by the President
of high Offices of state in return for
the contribution of large campaign
funds. It must regard any appoint
ment made on account of such contri-
button as a disregard of the trust con-
ferred upon the chief executive, as 3
violation of the professions upon which
the present Administration came into
power, and as an example which, II
followed, must lead to the destruction
of oil free institutions.
The league, through this committee,
declares its opinion that appointments
should not be given to such contribu-
tors. and profoundly regrets that the
President has departed from this rule.
We do not see how Mr.. Cleveland's
civil-service-reform supporters could
ignore the barter of diplomatic ap-
pointments for campaign fund contri-.
buttons, or how they could protest
against it in milder language.
When ingalls, sneered at purity In
politics as an iridescent dream. and at
civil service reform as barren cant, his
pessimistic defense of the old spoils
system only tended to confirm the Inn
preston of its utter rotteness.
But when President posing as an
opponent OF the trusts chooses as his
Attorney-General a trust attorney con-
spicuous only as an opponent Of the
antitrust law, and the same President,
posing also as civil service reformer,
pays for big campaign fund subscrip-
tions by giving ambassad dorship, to mill
lionaire aoodles. the Ingalls, PROPOSE
tion seems to be verified.
In the face of such an object lesson
purity in politics certainly does take on
the semblance of an iridescent dream,
and such civil service reform resolves
itself into something rottener than a
..barren ideality."
What avowed upholder OF the old
spoils system ever inflicted upon his
country more scandalous abuse Of the
powerp
In proclaiming that the victors had
a right to the spoils, Marcy meant on
ly that the offices should 60 to those
who had gallantly and ably fought the
peoples battle and were best qualified
to hold Office as the tried and trusted
favorites of the people. Between
Marcy's spoils system and what passes
for Democracy and civil service reform
with modern New York administra-
tion, Western Democrats prefer the
former.-St. Louis Post Dispatch.

and IN what way the pledges Of the D0nnp
ocratic party to restore silver - ~ old
place as money standard u - becas-
ried out.
When the repeal Of the purchasing
clause OF the Sherman law Va up for
discussion, every prominent Democrat
who favored unconditional repeal de-
clared that he did 80 because he be-
lieved unconditional repeal 70 be the
fret step toward carrying out the A.
q ancial pledge Q: the Democratic plat
form the step preliminary 10 restor-
ing silver to our currency system - .
money standard. The pages Of the
Congressional Record bristle with these
statements, and the public prints were
full of them.
It is to be hoped that those who made
these statements and who pledged
themselves to carry out the platform
will be able to find in Mr.. Carlisle's
speech before the rich men of New
York some Sign or suggestion that the
administration sympathizes with their
desire to redeem the party pledge.
For ourselves we can find no such Sign
or suggestion. Mr.. Carlisle. speaks as
if it were the settled policy of the
treasury department to nurse and fos-
ter whatever sentiment there may be
in the Democratic party in favor of the
single gold standard.
This seems to be the aim and end of
financial legislation so far as Mr.. Car
Isle is concerned. We are inclined to
hope that his present views will be as
fleeting and as temporary as those
which marked as we may say, the BIZ
metallic era of his belief. and that he
will finally urge his Democratic breth-
ern in congress to carry out in prompt
and effective legislation every pledge
made to the people by the Democratic
Constitution.

About Wedding Rings.

There is less change in wedding rings
than in anything else in the jewelry
line. The wedding ring is about the
same to-day as it was century ago.
The marriage token can hardly be
improved upon. It is a ring of pure
gold. It is softly rounded and if you
hang it on a piece of string and strike
it gently it will ring out an indescribab-
ly soft and sweet sound.
Ladies often wear numerous rings
which carry no significance, except,
perhaps. in some instances q
hint of the possession Of
wealth. Twenty-Five years ago it was
unusual to see woman wearing more
than one ring on either hand, but
now the more one can crowd on her
dainty digits the better she appears to
be pleased.
While women are most mindful of
the harmony of their dress, they
tumble diamonds, rubies, pearls, gar
nets and other precious stones to-
gether in ridiculous confusion.

Luminous N,aht Clouds.

Luminous night clouds are now the
subject of many observations, but
their origin is still something of a
mystery. They are believed by some
to consist OF very minute vesicles Of
water vapor floating at a very high
altitude, and rejecting the light of the
sun long after it had sunk below the
horizon; other meteorologists consid-
er that electricity has to do with their
luminosity. They are seen during the
summer nights afew weeks before and
after the solstice. Observations made
in Germany show that their height,
which does not vary to any extent, is
about SO kilometres, or nearly SO
miles. According to Professor Foster,
a paper read before the Geographical
Society of Berlin, they travel every
year from one polor zone of the earth
to the other, but in doing so they pur-
sue spiral course round the earth.

Some Uses Of Kerosene.

I a tablespoonful is put into aquart
of tepid water and this used in wash
ing windows and mirrors, instead of
pure water, there will remain upon
the cleaned surface abolish no amount
of mere friction can give. If flannel
cloth dipped in kerosene, then wrung
dry, be used in rubbing off dirty finger
marks from paint, the grateful house
keeper will repeat the experiment often.
To clean and brighten brasses and
copper, wiring out a piece of soft fan
mel in kerosene, and with this apply
Putt pomade to the tanished surface.
When well coated, rub hard with old
linen and polish with dry flannel. The
result leaves nothing to be desired.
The shining brasses of locomotives
and ferry boats are cleaned in this
manner. For white spots left upon
polished furniture by scalding water,
tea or coffee, rub hard with kerosene,
then polish with dry soft flannel.

Outburst in the Sun.

A luminous outburst in the sun
was observed by M. Trouvelot at
1910 a. M, Paris mean time on June
II last, and has now been fully de
scribed by him to the Academic les
Sciences. First, a luminous spot ap-
peared on the disc of the sun near it's
western limb. It was of golden
yellow tinge, and shortly afterwards
a companion spot appeared little
above it. The spectroscope showed
the first spot to consist of central
eruption, from which volcanic bombs
were thrown to heights above tne
chromosphere, where they seemed to
rest as dazzling balls. A few minutes
later these were replaced by brilliant
Jets or filaments. On the next day,
June Is. at $50 a. M, the eruption
was seen to be diminishing, and it
finally ceased at s2:45 p. m. There
was no corresponding magnetic per-
turbation observed at Kew.

An Aluminium Steamboat.

A novelty in boat building is the
tiny steamer just completed for the
Frankfort Electrical Exhibition by
Messrs. Escher, Wyss, and Co., of
Zurich, and which made a successful
trial trip on the Limmat the other
day. 1t is constructed entirely of
aluminium, even to the engines and
screw propeller, and is the first vessel
that has been built Of the light, ductile,
silver white "metal of the future"
The lilliputian bark is 2Oft. long and
SIT. wide, and is driven by 2-horse
power naphtha motor. AS this COM
pact style of engine, when, asis usually
the case, it is WI ought out of iron, is
already considered one of the lightest
on the market, the further advantage
gained in this respect when the motor
is constructed of aluminium is obvi-
cushion.
