A jar of cracker dust should always
be kept on pantry shelf for breading.
All the leftover pieces of bread may
be saved for week, dried in an open

THE woRLD,s FAIR FINANCES.

THE WORLDS FAIR FINANCES.
The accounts of the Worlds Fair
have not yet been audited, and there
fore nothing more than an approximate
estimate can be bad as to the receipts
and expenditures, but such figures as
are available show that the aggregate
receipts of money BY the exposition
amount to about twenty-eight million
and four hundred thousand dollars,
which includes the amounts received
from the sale of the capital stock and
individual subscribers. The total costs
of the exposition, in round numbers.
will amount to twenty-five million
dollars, leaving a balance of about
three million and four hundred thous'
and dollars to be turned over to tht
stockholders.

TIE Democratic Party is unable to
claim the victory for the passage of the
Repeal as theirs. Mr.. Cleveland has
had the honesty to compliment the
Republicans. upon. the firm stand
and the uncompromising position
they have taken in the matter,
for they have stood by him when his
own party was on the point Of DESERT
ing him. The Old Line Democratic to
whom we referred in our last Saturdays IS
issue, and who for SO long had before
him the visions Of honest and jus
Legislation which his Party, when they
finally came into power would give,
must have another sigh of sorrow and
regret as he notes the vote upon the
Silver Repeal on Monday. Out of the
43 Senators who voted in the affirma'
tive, % were Republicans; and YET
some of our Democratic friends have
had the unqualified nerve to accuse the
Republicans of endeavoring to defeat
its passage. Never the.less the fact re-
mains that the Sherman Repeal Bill
could never have been passed without
the Republican votes. The Democratic
Party would have been absolutely un
able to have mustered sufficient vote
to have passed the Bill.

The Worlds Fair that for the past
six months has been the delight not
only of America but all nations has
come to an end, and the sincere verdict
of all creation is that it was great
work greatly done. All that has been
said and written of its wonders and
gloIies seem meager beside the reality
as viewed by the appreciative visitor,
for it was not only the marvel of the
nineteenth century but of the ages.
The location was ideal; the mingling
Of land and water. and the scenic
effects of beautiful, Jackson Park,
leave a picture that will never fade
from the memory Of one of the mil
lions who entered the gates Of the
White City. We can but regret that
the great exposition was SO short-liyed,
aud that it could not be perpetuated as
a lasting memorial. But though the
graceful and beautiful architecture of
that glittering city by the great west
ern lake will soon fade away, the les
sons learned there will abide forever in
the minds and hearts Of The people,
and The great spirit Of human achisTe-
ment viii go on and on to even greater
tfiumphs In future years. The mem-
ory Of the great Fair is an abiding
inspiration.

ous doctrine that since his motive was
the securing the public good, corrupt
means and use Of bad men justified the
end. Carter Harrison was the natural
product and development of such a
city as Chicago, and whatever criticism
may be made as to his political methods
and his record of the past. it is only
fair to say that in the capacity of the
Worlds Fair Mayor of Chicago, he
rose to the full measure of a brainy
and strong man, and did himself and
constituency great credit.
We do not believe that his asassina-

a man whose diseased brain had be-

serious contemplation Of the doctrines
of Henry George and other anarchistic

ST say in all candor to my friends
from the South as well as the West, it
seems to me that the mistake on your
part has been that you have not under
taken to educate your people in what
is right. You hove followed instead
of leading. You have listened instead of
teaching; and when at last your party
comes into unquestioned and unchecked
power in all the branches of this Gov
ernment for the first time since it was
turned out on its great failure Of thirty
years ago, you find that responsibility
palsies the hand yon had raised, and
that you, trusted with the response
bilities of government. are compelled
to come around for what is the true
doctrine and the true interest of the
county,
The above is quotation from the
speech Of Hon. Anthony Higgins, de-
liyered in the U. S. Senate on the
Silver Repeal Bill. No truer words
than these were ever spoken, and no
one need look beyond the record of the
proceedings of the present session of
Congress for proof of the assertion.
When the debate in Congress over
this late measure was rampant, and
the public mind was drawn to the
severest tension in its anxiety over this
matter, a lifelong Democrat of this
community, Of the highest character
and intelligence, said to the writer,
that it did seem to him that the South
had become thoroughly dishonest upon
these great economic principles that lie
at the very vitals of our government
If this be true (and it is) then, no
greater calamity could hardly come to
our government than for it to be abso.
Iutely in the control of these people ani
how thoroughly they are to contro
il, through the Democratic party, is
demonstrated in the fact that President
Cleveland found himself powerless tt
procure measure, which was consid
cred by him to be Of vital Importance
to his administration and the country
at large, except that he had the hearty
support of the Republican party Of tht
Senate coming from the great conser
vative and patriotic body Of the coun
try. For be 1t remembered that out o.
the 43 votes that were cast in thu
Senate for the repeal of the .'Silye
Purchasing Actn % of them were cas-
By Republicans, and out of the 3
votes that were cast against that meas
ure, % were Democrats reRzesantinl

ros,s.seiy stated
4. .retary Of the Treasury had
70 authority nnder the act of 1875 to
issue bonds for any other purpose than
to maintain the parity of United States
notes with gold. He said in conclusion:
s'If you leave the Secretary in the pres
ent condition of affairs unarmed with
the authority to borrow money on the
credit of the United States, you
neglect your perfect duty when it is
plainly called to your attention. Under
existing law there is no power to sell
any Of those bonds except for the pur-
pose Of having gold enough to redeem
United States notes. And no Secretary
of the Treasury will dare issue either
of these species of bonds IA, 44 and 5
per cent. even if the law permitted
him to do so.'' A sensation followed
Senator Buffers asking Senator Sher-
man if the Secretary of the Treasury
had aske1 for bonds and the latter's
intimation that he believed he had. 1t
staggered the Democratic Senators who
are kept in the dark as to the inten-
tions of the administration.
The news from Virginia is very dis.
quieting to the democratic managers.
It seems that O'Farrall has made his
whole campaign on the basis that the
silver question would be settled in con-
gress by comprimise, and now, &C.
cordlng his own frantic telegram tc
his democratic friends, the prospect of
unconditional repeal has knocked the
bottom out of every speech he has
made in the campaign, and he regards
his defeat as probable, unless the fina
vote on the VOORHEES, bill has made it
certain that they will carry Virginia
because of the preponderance Of the
silver sentiment in the rural sections of
| the state, Republicans in Congress are
as rule perfectly Indifferent to the
result in Virginia. They say it will
not in the end be of any benefit to the
to the republican party to have the
populists carry Virginia. They are,
however, enjoying the fright Of thu
democratic brethren.

the temperate and semi-tropic zones,
grow here side by side, with three crops
of peas and beans, and elk to eight crops
of highly nutritious Chilean clover in
a single year. The prodigality of ma
ture here, taken in connection with our
benign climate, is something altogether
out OF range with any portion of the
earth's surface. especially when the fact
lie borne in mind that Los Angeles county
is absolutely gridironed with local and
transcontinental railways, and that one
can scarcely 90 a mile without stum-
bling over railway track.
In any other country under the sun
the foregoing would sound like the most
sublimated hyperbole or rhapsody, and
yet it is the most prosaic fact. Every
thing conspires to make the city OF Los
Angeles pre.eminent for growth and
splendor, and Southern California for the
most varied and remunerative produc-
ton known on the footstool. Added to
all, this city will be the center of the
handling OF the most valuable ores OF
gold and silver known to the present age.
A city with such varied sources and as
surances OF greatness. with record
breaking past as 20 advances in popula-
tion and wealth, has right to challenge
the admiring attention OF mankind, and
to proclaim as its motto Excelsior. 1t
is not amiss. now and then. to call the
attention OF mankind to the salient facts
of city which rightly makes such high
claims
