The situation in the wool market is
lucidly explained in another column by a
circular issued by Justice, Bateman &
Co. The difficulty in fixing a price at
all is explained, in view Of tariff reduc-
tions, and in fact there is no wool market
at present. No dealer is willing to name
a price and the way talk goes it is doubt
full if wool could be sold to-day for more
than 20 cents. If taking the duty off
would increase the price of wool, as was
said last fall, wool ought to have increased
in price in view of the early prospect for
free wool instead of decreasing. OF
course, the duty is still on, but the GER
tainty that it will be removed is causing
the stagnation.

Band of Gipsies,

A band of about as tough looking gip-
sizes as ever travelled struck the town,
Friday. They had two bears, a monkey
and baboon. Their horses were lean
and haggard, and their wagons falling to
pieces. The women were dressed in old
pieces of carpet. and one of them carried
slung to her back babe that could not
have been over a week old. 1t is rev.
elation to the prosperous people of this
region that such dirty and degraded be-
ings can exist.

The recent bank failures noticed in our
news columns are not the result of any
panic but are in fact all due to the failure
through mismanagement of the Columbia
National Bank of Chicago, the other
banks which have failed being largely
branches of the Columbia. An attempt
has been made to manufacture a scare
but it has failed.

Pre- sident Cleveland is said to be con-
sidering the advisability of placing the
fourth-class postmasters under civil
service rules. His idea is that many
thousand Republicans would necessarily
remain in office and by that means they
would become working Democrats, the
emoluments of many offices not justify
ing Democrats to take an examination.
This might be all right for some post
masters, who are now in, but how would
it act on the greater number of Demo
cratic aspirants for offices. 1t would
seem that the possibility of making
Republicans through disappointment of
Democrats in not getting the offices would
be much greater than the chances of
making Democrats by keeping Repub-
licanS in office.

The Democrats seem entirely in the
wilderness On the question of a candidate
for Governor. Lawrence Neal is most
frequently spoken of from the fact that
he was the author of the false pretense
adopted by the Chicago convention last
year; but the fact that he sided with the
Cincinnati gang and was candidate
against Campbell two years ago is held
against him by thousands of Campbell
Democrats. Walter B. Ritchie, of Lima,
is also mentioned as Senator Brice's
candidate, but the latter's known hostility
to the administration knocks Ritchie out.
OF course no Democrat in the bottom of
his heart believes that any candidate can
be elected if the Republicans settle down
to work, and nothing is more probable
than the old party will buckle down and
stay there until election day. Hence the
inability of the Democracy to find a
candidate is easily explained

PENCIL POINTERS.

Touching on the servant girl problem,
we heard the other day of girl who was
employed in family, not fifty miles
away, to take charge of the kitchen and
to perform the general duties of female
servant. This girl was engaged at wages
fully compensatory for the duties expect
ed. When the first Saturday evening came
she announced that she was going home,
saying, that she wouldn't "work for
nobody on Sunday" Home she went,
not returning until Sunday evening. On
Monday morning this autocratic female
issued general announcement No. 2 to
the effect that she would not do the
washing, as it was not her business. Of
course that was not much and such little
idiosyncrasies were overlooked, When
the next Saturday evening came, although
her mistress was sick in bed, this female
again went home, leaving the family to
get along in the best way possible. We
are not informed as to the course the
family then pursued, but with such salts
factory service they would certainly have
been justified in engaging the girl for the
term of her natural life.
