BISMARCK FOR STATE RIGHTS.
Remarkable Speech by the Man Of
Blood and Iron.

BERLIN, July 9.--About 400 excur-
sionists from the principality of
Lippe visited Prince Bismarck at
Eriedrichsruhe to-day. Both the
Prince and Princess appeared on
the balcony of the castle. Prince
Bismarck made notable speech
concerning the relations of the
smaller Federal States to tho en-
pire, and concluded with these re-
markable words:
There are seventeen federal
states having only single vote
each in the Federal Council. The
Council may be divided in three
categories-small states with vote
each, Prussia with eighteen votes,
and the middle states with twenty
four votes. Thus you see what
weight the small States have. All
that l am expressing to you is sur
prise over the fact that the national
idea has not caught fire in the par
liaments and governments of the
federated States, as twenty or
twenty-five years ago I hoped it
would.
MY fear and anxiety for the
future is that the national idea may
be stifled in the coils of the boa
constructor of bureaucracy, which
has grown rapidly in the last few
years. Only the Federal Council
and the Reichstag can help here
and the former has the right to as
sert itself. 1t would be possible
then for the governments of the
smaller States to express opinions,
to which no official attention is now
paid.
81 sum up all these reflections
thus: God preserve for us the Con-
stitution OF the Empire as it is and
the present Federal Governments
that form the Federal Council, that
the latter may at all times stand by
the side of the Reichstag as legis-
lative coethcient of absolutely equal
rank, with absolutely equal rights"
The strong states rights senti-
ments expressed in this speech
aroused as much surprise as ent husi-
| aSm.

THE DEVIL WAGON.
A New Device Used for the Collec-
ton OF Bad Debts.

Collection agencies are sometimes
put to desperate straits to secure
payments on bad debts, but the de-
vice of an organization i'll Nashville,
Tenn, probably deserves the first
prize. A black covered wagon, such
as deliver groceries, is used. On the
sides are painted pictures of his
satanic majesty in red and gold.
That was all. But every one knew
that when the wagon stood in front
of mans house or store the inmate
had secured a high place in the
agency's "black book
The other day a citizen ordered
the driver of one of the wagons to
leave the front of his premises. Re-
fusal followed; the irate citizen
seized a conveniently loaded shot
gun, and the driver spent the day
picking small particles of lead out
OF his anatomy.-New York. Recorder.

How Chicago is Spelled,

In sorting over the letters for
Chicago man in the general Chca-
go office has kept an account of the
number of different ways the word
Chicago is spelled. Recently the
record showed 1877 different ways.
Some ripe scholar in Finland sent a
letter to his brother and spelled the
name OF the Garden city Zlzzazo.
Still another foreigner, possibly
with sinister motive, spelled the
word Jagjago. Hipaho, Jajiio,
Scheechacho, Hizago and Chachicho
are also prime favortes, The Postal
Record.

its solitary accumulation in our hands
has already sufficiently demonstrat, i.
In the language of Burke, a wise and
salutary neglect is the highest service
we can now render to silver,
The crucial test is. whether we are not
to drop from the bimetallic standard of
gold and silver, maintained on a parity,
to the dangerously crippled standard of
silver only, and thereby limit to an in
ferior currency the foremost business

The grave responsibility rests upon a
Democratic administration now in full
cOutrol of both branches of Congress as
we'll as of the executive department
No government can be sustained which
does not fulfil its pledges in good faith
The public debt, National and State, and
all other contracts by our recorded
pledges are payable in legal tender on a
parity with gold.
The honor of the country may be in
peril. Whatever policy will relieve thepub-
lie distress will be my policy. Whatever
party favors the public credit will have
my favor. Whatever measures support
public honor will have my support.

practical force, so long manifestly disre-
garded, in the final determination of the
silver problem, and Europe, after all, to
provide for its coming financial necessi-
ties, was most likely to reach the con-
clusion that silver should not remain alb
sOlute and useless only as a commodity.
He could not, however, favor bimetal-
lism without an increase of silver in sill
yer coinage, as without an increase it
would be impossible to maintain any
parity between gold and silver, even
with the cooperation of many nations.
Nor could he favor the free coinage of
silver by the United States alone were
the ratio between the two metals to be
advanced from 10 to 26 to 1, or even 2S
to l, for the same reason that the present
colossal output of silver could not be
annually absorbed by any single nation,
and preposterous attempt to absorb it
on our part might win smile from the
governor of Colorado, but would pro-
woke the ridicule of the commercial
world and inexorably cause the further
depreciation.
No remedy would have prosperous
ending which did not squarely and fully
recognize the existing extraordinary
magnitude of the amount of silver. The
fact might induce France and other ma
tions also to join the gold monometal-
lists of Europe. There was now little of
the necessaries of life for which the
United States was dependent on other
countries, while cotton, petroleum and
provisions could not be so readily or
satisfactorily obtained elsewhere than in
the United States. There was, however,
no possibility of circumstances that
could deprive this country of its large
and natural share of the worlds gold un-
less by free coinage it went directly to
the silver standard, or unless the revenue
laws were so framed as to make the i'm
ports exceed the exports permanently,
and that was risk which no political
party would take.

millions for investment, but with any
cheap or uncertain standard of money

business, commerce and wealth, have
charge of only twenty-three committees.
West Virginia directs the Committee of
Ways and Means, which is the one of
most Importance to Northern manufact-
urers and mining and commerce. Texas
directs the Committee on Appropriations
and on Judiciary, and Missouri the
Coinage, and Virginia the decision of
election cases. Virginia also directs
foreign and internal commerce, of which
it has trihe more than Delaware and
less than New-Jersey. Louisiana con-
trolls rivers and harbors, Missouri con-
trolls agriculture, and Kentucky controls
foreign affairs. North Carolina takes
charge of the postal service, Arkansas of
the public lands, Alabama of the Terri
tories, and Mississippi of the railroads,
having less railroad mileage than almost
any Northern State. Alabama also di-
rects about public buildings, and Ten
nessee about education. The govern
ment of the country is turned over TO the
South, so far as the House is concerned.

Representative Wilson of West Vir-
ginia, the new chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, says that without
consultation with the committee he can
not undertake to outline any policy for it,
but believes it will go to work promptly
at revision of the tariff. This, he says,
does not necessarily mean that bill
will be reported very soon, for the work
will take considerable time. He says
the party is in situation now to perfect
a broad and general revision of the tariff
in accordance with it's pledges to the peo-
pie. Which means that as far as that com
mittee is concerned, the Chicago plat
form is to be carried out.

But thirteen States hold elections this
fall, viz: Kentucky, Maryland, Massa-
chusetts, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, New
Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania,
SOUTH Dakota, Virginia and Wisconsin.
Of these, Iowa, Massachusetts,, Ohio,
Virginia and Wisconsin elect governors;
New York elects full State ticket ex-
cept governor and lieutenant governor
and legislature; Pennsylvania a su-
preme Judge and State treasurer, and the
remaining seven elect judges or legisla-
lures. The new legislatures will elect
United States senators-in Iowa to sue
ceed James F. Wilson, in Kentucky to
succeed William Lindsay, and in Virgin
ia to succeed Eppa Hunton. Governor
Mckinley of Ohio will undoubtedly sue
ceed himself. Governor Boies, demo
crat, of Iowa, declares himself out of
politics, and will probably be succeeded
by republican, as will probably be the
case with the democratic governors of
Wisconsin and Massachusetts,. Later
Gov. Boies consents to run.

A fire, which in the extent of territory
it covers, almost rivals Chicago's histor-
ic conflagration, began in that part of the
city known as South Chicago, about 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon. From a
three-story brick building at the corner
of Ninety-frst street and Superior ave-
nue., flames which rapidly grew in vol
ume under gale of wind from the west,
ate their way over block after block of
small frame residences until they reached
the lake. Within two hours the fire had
consumed at least thirty buildings and
five blocks of the greatest industrial sub
urb of Chicago. The fifty thousand resi-
dents of the town were preci pitated into
panic. AS the pine structures in which
lived the workingmen employed in the
large steel mills of the Illinois Steel
Company, and in which the smaller mer-
chants of the place made their homes,
were levelled by the roaring flames.
Those whose homes had not yet fallen
fed with their goods and household uten-
sils to the other portions of the city.
Streets were blockaded with wagons con-
tanning the effects of the frightened and
feeting residents, and men and women
appalled, by the calamity fled in every di-
rection. The loss is over 81 100000.

The Toledo Commercial gives the fol
lowing sensible advice to depositors who
are inclined to become timid: IF YOU
have money on hand, first pay your
debts; then, If you have some left, lend
it to some one who can secure you
against loss-your neighbor, your en-
ploYer or bank. In this way it will
earn you interest and put the wheels of
business in motion. The person who
draws his money out of bank in Toledo
and hides itaway ought to be driven out
of the city to find a home in some locality
where the seal of the city is: Every
one for himself and the devil take the
hindmost.' Many man is out of job
to-day because he and his wife hurried
to the bank few weeks ago to draw out
the few dollars they had there. The
next week his employer was made to pay
up a loan ard forced to shut up his shop.
and the first man to be discharged was
this panic stricken depositor. We are
knit and bound together so closely that
even an ignorant woman may, in saving
her few dollars bring hardships on
hundreds and herself lose many times
the amount of her deposit. You who
have given your confidence to your
banks in spite of the whisperings of
fear, the public owes you respect and
gratitude. But for you not a wheel
would be turning in Toledo to-day, lot
bell would call men to work. And those
who owe you the most are they who
were so cowardly as to think only Of
themselves, and who have suffered but
little. simply and only because you re.
fused to follow their selfish, suicidal
guidance"

Some one in London has been looking
at the Century Dictionary and remarks
that some of the old words in the Eng
lish dictionary are not dropped when
new ones are admitted the book will
have to be taken to cotton press to be
reduced to portable size. Be that as it
may, we are certainly better off than the
English, for our dictionary is done and
their new Oxford edition does not seem
likely to be completed until the middle
of the next century by which time the
first five letters of the alphabet will be
ready for an appendix.

Secretary Carlisle has put formida-
BILE obstacle in the path of free coinage
men in his statement of the cost which
would attend the recoinage of silver at a
higher ratio. This is a phase of the
question which either has not been un-
derstood by the free silver advocates, or
about which they have been judiciously
silent. Secretary Carlisle makes it clear
that to change the ratio to that of twenty
to one would involve a cost to the Gov
ernment of nearly $113, 100000.

At present the army is nearer it's maxi

Ono That Required the Services OF Nine
ty-One Men to Carry 1t.
In former times it was the custom in
many German towns to manufacture
sausages of enormous length, and carry
them on festive occasions in solemn pro-
cession through the streets On New
Years day in 1858 giant sausage 1913
ellis in length was carried in triumph
by forty-ei"ht persons. But in the year
1888. according to a German paper, it
took ninety-one persons to carry sau-
sage 500 els long and weighing 4S4
pounds. The chronicler of the period
says: The butchers men were all
neatly attired in white blouses. The
first man wound one end of the sausage
several times round his neck with a por-
ton OF it hanging down in front, the
rest followed at equal distances carry
ing the trophy on their shoulders, and
the last one had the other end wound
OF the procession" In the year 1901 we
are told that the sausage attained a
length of 1.0O5 ellis, 100 OF which were
presented to their serene highnesses at
the castle. All this happened at 10
nigsberg. In 1913 Emperor Matthias
regaled the princess of the house
of Austria with tournament, at which
the butchers of Vienna gave repre-
sentation of peasants wedding and
paraded the streets with a sausage
measuring 9o9 ellis
