doubt My observation is that there
never before was such intelligent manage
ment, such regard for the rights of the
working classes and such attention to
their general welfare as wobtains. The
average railway manager of to-day is
broader, ADLER and kindlier than the aver
age manager of thirty or forty years ago.
His sympathies are with his men, his
interests repose in their hands, and he
knows that competent service. loyal per

A Significant Vote.

BY referring to the vote on silver, as
given in the Congressional Record and
to the politics of each member, as CIV
en- in the official directory, we find the
following interesting result in the
House vote:
For free coinage of silver, at 16 to /
democrats 100, republicans IS, popu-
lists IL.
Against free coinage and for a gold
basis-republIcans 113, democrats ia.
Western congressman for gold ba-
sis-republlcans As, democrats 26.
Southern congressman for a gold ba-
sis-republlcans 8, democrats 81.
Eastern congressman for free silver
republicans 0, democrats 2.
This summary of the vote shows a
sectional division that is significant. 1t
shows a breaking up of old division
lines, and the establishment of new
ones, the south and West against the
Northeast. Mason and pixons line
has been extended up the Mississippi
and Missouri rivers.

How to Retain Your yete Here.

1t seems to be a matter of general
misunderstanding whether or not a
man who gets claim can vote at his
home township again this fall. AL
though we have taken the position all
along that he can preserve his resi-
dence here by proper means we were
DESTROYS of presenting the matter so
that there should be no mistake about
it and consequently asked an opinion
from Judge Mckay. He says:
"A person may make the race and
secure claim, yet retain his residence
here if after he selects his land and goes
to file he dates his entry from the date
Of fling"
This opinion is the same as we have
advanced before, although probably
more explicit. In the first place it
must be understood that man when
he goes to file can date his entry either
from the time of his first occupancy of
the land or from the date of his filing.
If he does the first he IL supposed to
claim residence at the time and loses
his citizenship here but if the latter he
has six months to make a residence.
A mans knowledge of the situation
will determine for him whether he can
do the latter of the two or not. If he
makes the race and secures his land
without any trouble he can wait day
or two until the rush is over and go to
file. He can then see if any one has
filed on his land and if not he is safe to
date his entry from his fling and have
six months to establish a residence. If,
however, there is likely to be any con-
test Of prior occupancy or If some one
has filed on the land before him, it will
then be necessary for him to date his
entry to the first moment of his Oc-
cupancy or he Is liable to lose the
land. Each one can Judge for himself
which course he will pursue, from the
condition he finds himself in. He will
be governed by circumstances on all
occasions, remembering that the set
tier who dates his entry from the date
of fling has six months to make resi-
dence and has vote at his former
home; while he who dates his entry
from the first actual occupancy estab-
fishes his residence there, loses his
rights here and has ninety days IN
which to file.

THERE have been assertions made by
administration democrats that CleVe-
land Is bi-metalllst and would sign a
bill for silver legislation after the re-
peal. Those people probably did not
see in Cleveland's message where he
said, THE time has come when gold
and silver must part company" If
they remember that part of the mes
sage they had better not indulge in
rank assertions. However, Cleveland
has now given out publicly that he
would not sign any silver measure what
ever, and this leaves the fellows who
preached otherwise in a condition
of having their knowledge seriously
doubted.

of something better being substituted

In answer to sneering remark of a
republican paper regarding the Prison
Trusty being a populist paper, the
Trusty says that great majority of
the convicts were formerly republic
cans, which accounts for their becom-
ing criminals. Since they have been
at Lansing, says the Trusty, the evil
influences and liquor have been re-
moved so that their intellect has been
left unclouded, and as consequence
they have become converted to popu-
1ism. The Trusty is thorn in the flesh
