A TOUCHING FAREWELL.
The Departing Editor Has Few
Words to Say to His Readers.
NOrthwestern Magazine.

Northwestern Magazine.
George T. Strodel, in retiring from the
editorial responsibility of the Bitter Root
Times, at Hamilton, Mont, says:
For fourteen months past we have been
making an effort at endeavoring to attemp I
to try a bluff on running a newspaper. A
physical collapse some six months ago
prevented an exposure of mental disability
later on.
"We have been taught three great and
important truths, the very quintessence of
wisdom, viz. First, it takes something
other than indigestion and an o'erweening
ambition to successfully operate Wash
ington hand-prsss; second, il is con-
venient to have a head on each end of
your hObby-horse. il you must ride one
third, that the author of that trite aphor-
ism, Man proposes. God dispOses, had his
eye-teeth cut.
1--WE desist with no i'll will toward the
paper or its patrons, neither great amount
Of cOlectable notes. We could have eked
health permitted, but that is neither here
nor there. Now, since we'uns aud you 'uns
must part It's said that you'uns have stole
we-uns' heart, but it will be sadder ii
you'uDs don't bring in your bill before
we'uDs depart. And to our debtors: Ex-
pect the vengeance of just Bohemian s
wrath to overtake you for every penny
escaped.
1--WE trusted in God and we have not
been forsaken-for we found as great a
chump as ourself to continue this des-
perate struggle. With tears and prayers
we bid him God-speed."

SHUTTING DOWN The MILLS

Well, the worst hev come to the worst, wife,
The mills they shut down tonight:
For the companys been a-loSln
Their money clear out o. sight.
And they amt no orders a-comin'.
And the market is dreadful slack:
And the whole consarn the super says,

En- ouidat keep back the tears;
TO see them shuttIn' the doors for good
Ihet had swung so many years.
But it isn't SO bad for us, wife,
cor we've nary chick nor child;
But Jim and the rest o. them fellers,

I've worked by the side of Jim now
For dozen years and more.
En- never see b i'm look so beat
En- SO desprite-like before.
jest think o. them little children,
Ana his Sfckly, ailin' wife!
wouldn't change places nohow with Jim
This night you kin bet your life.
Well, they's plenty, and plenty NV others
That's in no better trim

keep athfnkin OF Jim.
But If you haven't the heart. wife,
Nv blazin' angel of light.
Wen do ez you say, help Jfm's wee kids
While we hey the sup and bite.

NO fear but he will pervide.

FOR THE SMALL GIRL.

Many Of the afternoon dresses for chill

coarse lace. 1t is always wise to have a
strictly afternoon gown for the small girl

dress is laid aside. It is economy. and 1t
is really restful.

RUN OF THE JOIN BULL TR AIN

The Ancient LOGON tive and Coaches
Pull into Chicago on lime.
CHICAGO, April 23.-The John
Bull' train, which has been travel
ing from Philadelphia since Men
day over the Pennsylvania road, ar
rived IN the city yesterday after =
noon. The train is intended as q
part of the Pennsylvania roads ex-
hibit at the Worlds Fair, and no
ordinary honors were paid to the
first locomotive that appeared on an
american railroad. The train was
met at Valparaiso by special train
from this city, which had on board
several offici ais of the road. It was
showing and blowing when the
train pulled into Valparaiso, but
this did not deter a large crowd
from greeting the ancient ngine.
The train made good time throu gh-
out the journey, aud when it
reached the junction it was there to
the minute. John Bull trotted into
the station like war horse that has
safely passed through his last bat
tie, and the big crowd cheered the
old locomotive and gave it a rous-
ing welcome. John Bull will be re
moved to the fair grounds Monday,

The State of Tennessee, it is said,
has passed banking act solae-
what similar to that passed by the
recent legislature of this State, and
similar to the banking act Of New
York, adopted more than a year ago.
The sct provides:
That the State shall issue
currency to the banks just as the
United States would issue to ma
t,onal banks, no bank 70 receive a
larger amont of currency than 80
per cent Of the market value Ct
such bonds of the United States, or
of the State of Tennessee, of any
as it county in the State of Tennessee
may deposit with the State Tr7asu'
rer, and the total amount of such cur
currency issued by the State not tc
exceed $25.O0O,O00. Ia regard tc
the use of county bonds as a basis
of currency, it is provided that nc
countyb nds shall be used where TIE
county indebtedness exceeds , pei
cent of taxable property of th'
county, or if the county has eve1
defaulted on its interest Th'
bank bills are to be signed by th'
president and the cashier of th
bank and countersigned by tn
State Comptroller and are to be re
deemable on demand in gold or sil
yer.
Every State should make som
such provision for local currency
and Congress should at its nes
meeting repeal the ten per Ger
tax. This beng done, the silve
purchase act might be very muc
modified and other steps be take
to maintain government issues on
par with gold. By these means th
currency will be kept sound an
yet have an ample volume for tt
needs of the public.

disarmed him He then showed him

When Guard Murphy came in
Keeper Hulse was about to give the
alarm. when Pallister threatened
to kill him if he made the least

THs Wall street men appear to be
very much dissatisfied with the
policy which Secretary Carlisle has
pursued of not telling them exactly
what he means to do. Precisel,
The Treasury proposes to run itself
But do not all the circumstances of
the present show infsllibly that our
whole system of finance is wror g,
and that the Treasury is too closely
allied with outside dealings? Our
finances should be divorced from
other influences, and the bank issues
should not be sustained alone by
government credit The currency
should in large measure consist of
bank notes, redeemable on demand
in specie.

The growth OF the Savings Banks

velopment. Ten years ago there
were but 629 savings banks, while
now they number 1,O5O. Their re-
sources now stand at nearly $4,000,
100000, or more than double what
they were ten years ago. Their
loans on real estate ars S7OO,OO0,-

The Presidents Views on the Currency.
Washington Post.
To representative of the United |
Press the President said last night:
"The inclination on the part OF
the public to accept newspaper re.
ports concerning the intentions OF
those charged with the management
of our national finances seems to
justify my emphatic contradiction
of the statement that the redemp-
ton f anv kind Of Treasury notes
except in gold has at any time been
determined upon or contemplated
by the Secretary of the Treasury,
or anv other member Of the pres
ent administrator.
cine President and his Cabinet
are absolutely harmonious In the
| determination to exercise every
power conferred upon them to main
tain the public credit, to keep the
public faith, and to preserve the
parity between gold and silver and
between all financial obligations OF
the government
"While the law of 1860 forcing
the purchase of a fixed amount of
silver every month, provides that
the Secretary of the Treasury, in
his discretion, may redeem In either
gold or silver the Treasury notes
given in payment of silver pur-
chases, yet the declaration of the
policy of the Government to main
tain the parity between the metals
seem SO clearly to regulate thi, dis
cretlon as to dictate their redemp'
tion IN gold.
''Of course perplexities and dif
ficulties have grown out of an un
fortunate financial policy which w
found IN vogue, aud embarrass
merts have arisen from ill-advisee
| financial legislation confronting u
at every turn but with Cheerful
confidence among the people and
S patriotic disposition to cooperate
threatened dangers will be averte'
pending a legislative return to
better and sounder financial plan
"The strong credit of the coun
try, still unlmpaired, and the goo'
: sense of our people, which has neve
{ failed in time of need, are at han
to save US from disaster"

A Small Boat Sighted In the North Sea
Containing Four Dead Booies.
LONDON, April PA despatch
from Ymulden, Holland, states that
fishing boat that has arrived tn re
reports having seen adrift in lati-
tude 56 north longitude 5 east, a
boat which had painted on it's side
q name which, as far as could be
made out. read Moran. In the
boat were the dead bodies of four
men tied to the seats. 4 high sea
was running at the time the boat
was sighted and this prevented the
fishing vessels from running close
to the drifting boat It is conjec-
tured here that this small boat came
from the i'll fated Naronic, which
sailed from Liverpool for New York
on February II last, and has never
since been heard from, No date
is given on which the boat was seen.
The position where the boat was
