The fact that the president has the
power, and also has precedents for such
action, to order the discontinuance of
silver purchases as provided for in TIE
Sherman act. and yet fails to do so. is
taken by the silver advocates as evi-
dence that Mr.. Cleveland is not the in
Veterate enemy of the white metal he
has been represented to be. To order
the suspension of silver purchases would
be no more arbitrary or autocratic than

HOW TO EVEN UP RATES.

The action of the western roads in
proposing to charge a rate of one fare
and two-t thirds for the round trip to and
from Chicago during the worlds fair
is not very cordially Endorsed by the
business men of that city. They are in
clined to look upon a rebate of only one
third on round-trip fare as practically
no reduction at all, and will doubtless
enter vigorous protests if a policy so dis
couraging to would-be visitors is per-
sisted in.
Bat has it ever occurred to the hotel
and restaurant keepers of Chicago and
the various others who expect TO make
their everlasting fortunes out of the fair
that they may do something toward OBJ
Waiting the falling off in attendance, of
which they are now SO apprehensive as a
consequence of high railroad rates, by
throwing off little on their own rates:
So far as heard from none of the hotels
propose any reduction; nobody proposes
to charge any less for what he has to
sell, but in all probability as much more
as he can possibly get over his usual
prices. 1t is only the railroads that are
asked to reduce.
Now, suppose all other charges are re-
duced in the same proportion, wouldn't
that about even up the situation? The
visitor who might conclude to stay at
home if he had to pay five-thirds fare
for his roundtrip ticket would probably
conclude to go were he assured of a third
off on his board bills. Here is food for
thought for the business men of Chicago

To Relay Tracks,

From the Atchison Champion.
Twenty-eight carloads of steel rails
We're sent out on the Central Branch
road to Downs yesterday. Several car
loads were shipped to Lenora and Stock
ton last week, and about fifty carloads
of ties have been unloaded at different
points near the western terminus of the
road. The company will at once begin
the work of relaying the tracks from
Downs east and fixing the roadbed up in
better shape than ever before. Con-
tracts have also been placed for more
material to be used in improving the
line west of here, and by the close of
the year the Central Branch road will
be in fine condition.

The Nestor OF the Big Seventh.

From the +. c. Gazette.
Hon. Chester |. Long, of Medicine
Lodge, is in the city today. There was
never more brilliant campaign made
than that made by Chester l. Long in
the Seventh district last fall, and but for
the imported reformers from the Chero-
kee strip, lie would have been elected.
During the legislative fight at Topeka
this winter, he was attorney for the Re-
publicans and his valuable service is
only appreciated by those who were
aware Of the work which he performed.
While lie was the youngest lawyer of
the four who fought the battle in the
supreme court, yet his argument was
not surpassed by any in logic, eloquence
and patriotism.

The gratifying statement that the
number of business failures throughout
the country was smaller than for many

in business is largely the result of re-

same point.

?. S.-Crittenden Got It.

From the TrOV Chief.
Cleveland has refused to appoint ex-
Governor Crittenden of Missouri, to an
Office. because he carried around pho
tograph of jesse James, after the death
OF the outlaw, and boosted of the part
he had taken in riding the earth of the
scourge. The fact that Crittenden
fought in the Union army may have
had it influence. Jesse James may be
dead, but his friends are not all dead.
Besides, as smart man as Crittenden
should have had sense enough to act
with the party that he fought with in
the war

So Longstreet was, the biggest of the

In 1884 when Cleveland was first
elected he had all the federal officehold-
ers against him. Four years later they
were all for him and he was defeated.
This, perhaps, is the reason for his indie

1T seems to demonstrate the fact that

IT is said that President Cleveland is
already manifesting considerable inter-
est in the state campaign in Ohio to take
place this year in the fall. The reason
for this is that Major Mckinley is
already virtually the nominee of the
Republican party for reelection as gov
ernor, which circumstance at once vests
the contest with national importance, or
at least general concern. If Mckinley
can be beaten Cleveland will take it as
an endorsement of his administration,
and SO anxious is he for this that he is
said to be quietly urging Allen w. Thur
man for the Democratic nomination, the
idea being that the name and prestige of
his father, the venerable Allen G. Thur
man, would attract many votes,

A decision OF much interest to book

rendered by Judge Fitzsimons OF the

The action was brought by Robert c.
Irving against Joseph a. Britton. on a

Britton refused payment on the ground
that 1t was a gambling debt
Judge Fitzsimons gave judgment to
Irving. In his opinion he says:
Horse racing has never been con-
demned by any law of this State, but
pool-selling has. In 1857 the Legislature
deemed 1t eNpedient to permit the sale of
pools on certain duly Incorporated tracks
at certain seasons. The Legislature had
the right to fix the place and time dur
ing which such gaming could be carried
on"
Therefore, the Judge holds that a bet
made at the time and place prescribed
by the law is Legal

some hne cases tor the booksellers. ap-
peared for BrittOn. He said the case had
been submitted to the Court 10 be passed
upon, and that II would b. carried to
the General Term of the City Court, and

that Bookmaker Irving allowed Rritton
