GONG TO THE FAIR,

With a pocket full OF money
And . gripsnck full of clothes,
And with a kodak loaded
For most anything that Shows
And with enthusiasm
That is way beyond compare,
I'm going to Chicago
TO be I'm it, At the fair.
I'll gaze on greater wonders
Than were ever dreamt befor%
The world in past and present
am going TO explore.
And all its rarest treasures
Will appear before my eyes,
Which were, 1 wish, as many
AS are given to the fiies.
Among the strnagcst people
In their ma tive streets I'll 60
'Mong dwarfS from darkest Africa
And frozen EsQuimaux:
Like in the ancient fairy tales
I'll visit every land
"From Greenland's icy mountains
To midas coral strand"
I'll gain 30 much OF knowledge
That forever will be
A bright encyclopedia
In high society:
And folks will crowd around me
When there's silver in my hair
To listen to the story
OF Chicago and her fair.
What care for the trouble
Or discomfort or expense
When nifty million dollars worth
I'll see for nifty cents:
To miss that biggest thing on earth
Would be lasting crime
am going to Chicago
II 1T takes my bottom dime
Tho railroad trains are crowde.
And the ocean ships ore crammes
. The highways are with carriages
And bicycles all jammed;
The lakes, canals ana rivers
Haven't any room to spare
For all the world is going
To Chicago and her fair.
At least q million pocketbooks
Brfmmed full OF ready cash,
Two million Saratoga trunks
For baggagemen to smash.
And counue bulging gripsacks
Packed with the greatest care,
Are going to Chicago
To boom along the fair.
Hoo-ray, then. for Columbusi
Three tigers for his fairi
I'm going to Chicago
If I must use Shank s marc;
I'll feast my eyes on wonders,
With knowledge I'LL my brain,
And proud I'll tell the story
When am home again.

When the hens begin to fall off in
eggs it is best for them to sit for a week
or two. 1t is natures method of re-
cuperation, and if hen is prevented
from sitting she will lay but few eggs
before she may begin sitting again. If
the hens are to be invigorated and made
to begin laying again, feed them a large
mess OF lean meat once q day. 1t is tho
best of all methods for making the hens
lay. and it Is cheap because it produces
eggs enough 70 mere than pay for the

Gov. Mckinley has been the chief
executive of Ohio for two years. He

the position by address and single

Ohio last fall probably contributes
Mckinley to the bringing about of this
armed neutrality upon the part of the

William Mckinley mean? If it shall
be followed by his election he will be-

The PRESIDENTS CLUB.

The CALLS Washington correspondent
says that Congressmen are apprehensive
that the President may withhold some of
the most important appointments until the
Senate has adjourned. Any appointment
ne might make would hold during the re-
cess and when Congress reassembles the
President would be in position to influence
the votes of Congressman through the
power of appointment 1t is to be hoped
that the President will not enter upon
course SO full OF peril to himself and to re-
publican Institutions. The independence
OF the legislative department OF the Execu-
tive Is one Of the essential condition of an
harmonious government in which the three
departments are equal in their respective
spheres. No custom should be allowed to
grow which confers upon the President
power 10 force his policy upon Congress.
he may recommend measures and give the
reasons why, in his opinion, they should be
adopted, but with Recommendation his
constitutional influence ends. The meas
ure which it Is supposed Mr.. Cleveland will
try to force through Congress is one TO sus-
pend further purchases of silver. II is lust
possible for the President to win a costly
victory on this issue. A vast majority of the
people favor some measure which Will con-
tinue the use Of silver as money. Precisely
what that measure shall be may not be de-
termined of hand. The friends of silver
should consult as 10 the best course to pur-
sue to obtain the desired end. But law
pushed through Congress by the process OF
patronage to demonetize silver will fail of
its purpose. The people look to Congress
for laws and to the Executive for the en-
foreement of laws. The lines of action are
so distinctly marked that any President
who exceeds his duty in one department
and falls short Of it in another only makes
trouble for himself and the people.

ARIZONA WANTS A HARBoR.

southern boundary of Arizona may be

Gulf OF California, alfordng facilities for a

west from point eighty miles south of

Nogales it runs straight to the northwest to

of Yuma, thence north to Yuma and then
straight westward to the Pacific. This ar

California TO Mexico. inclusive of the mouth
OF the Colorado River. 1t is stated that the
original treaty fixed the boundary twenty
miles south Of the Colorado River, but by

defined as twenty miles south of the mouth

BEATING ABOUT THE BUSH.

The reasons given by Secretary Carlisle
for issuing new regulations to govern the
enforcement of the Chinese registration act
do not carry much comfort 10 the friends of
the act. The act has been on the statute
book something more than a year. The
regulations were announced soon after the
bill became a law. With the absolute
knowledge that the act was the joint work
Of both houses of Congress and the Presi-
dent of the United States, the Chinese have
refused to obey it. Tiey have declared
that 1t is unconstitutional in the face of the
fact that kindred acts have been declared in
complete accord with the constitution. The
Chinese can now say that their defiant attI-
tude has frightened the Government into a
compromise. Features OF the regulation
which they objected to have been modified.
1t IS matter of opinion whether these
notifications have not taken from the act
whatever virtue 1t possessed They have
certainly eliminated a feature which the
late administration considered essential.
The intrm purpose Of the administration in
dealing with the Chinese is aecentnated by
structures on the California official who had
announced his intention to enforce the act
The announcement of an Intention TO en-
force the act is considered i'll advised If not

reported to have said, ''for him (Mr. QUINN
TO have carried out his instructions and NOT
arouse opposition by threats Of future pen
allies"
Mr.. Carlisle may not be aware that when
Mr.. Quinn declared his purpose TO enforce
the law only an occasional Chinaman was
presenting himself for registration. They
professed net TO believe that the law would
be enforced. They openly declared an in
tention to resist its enforcement and appeal
TO the Supreme Court to sustain them. At
this junciure Mr.. Quinn firmly assured the
Chinese that unless the Washington authori-
ties sent him new instructions the law
would be enforced. Under this assurance
registrations increased 10 about twenty a
day. Since the new Instructions were re-
ceiYed they have practically ceased. The
modification of the law al the Treasury De-
partment is taken by the Chinese companies
as a signal for retreat. The present proba-
bilitles are that after the 9th Of May the
United States will be in the ridieRssas posi-
tion of great nation that caneSs enforce
an ordinary law.
