HANDSOME NEW GOWNS.

off, they must be in measure satisfied
to lose their furry coats for the sake of
the lovely beings who get them. think
1t was Lockyer who said:
''Oh, lucky little kid,
You persisted, SO you did,
For my sweet"
The little wildcats, and the pretty
bears, and the delightful polecats, all
just walk into camp and say: Take
my furry coat and send 1t to some of
those New York girls. We hear that in
the winter time those poor creatures
have to go without any protection on
their bare necks and arms. We are used
to cold, and so here goes" Sometimes

Fur on hats. fur on shoulders and fur
on gowns and gloves, on cloaks and tea
gowns, and everywhere else that the mo-
diste can by any pretext affix it. The
most approved method is to have collars,
lapels and ripples bound with fur i'll a
regular round binding; but, dear lady
friends, don't think you can sew this on
to look right, for you cannot. There is
knack about it that no amateur can
achieve. The fur hangs in tempting
strips by many doors, and q strip of or
binary fur one inch wide will cost from
81 to So yard, according to the kind of
fur, and it will need about five yards for
collars and lapels. Better buy your
coat outright or wear your old one with
what courage you can than try to sew it
on yourself, for you cannot do it right.
The manners of applying fur trim

bottom was inch band of gray
fur, and extending diagonally from the
left shoulder to right foot was another
band of the same width. There was
q round belt of fur and dog collar of
the same. There was Il wide collar of
channels skin, made very stiff by lining,
This was cut so as to represent revers in
front and plain the rest of the way, and
the whole was bound with fur. This made
an exceedingly nice gown. Fur is used
almost as universally on children's out
door garments as for women, and men
are not debarred. Both men and women
may have deep fur cuffs to their gloves.
Muffs are smaller than have ever seen
them. Caps and toques will be worn
very much after the 1st of November.
Still one can have a dress made with
out fur, if one is very brave. A case in
point is where young lady had tan

in deep scallops, which fell over an I'm

shoulder caps and forearm sleeves of
cardinal velvet. The belt Of canvas had
a quaint gold buckle.
For the children found two lovely
costumes In one of our most renowned
stores, both of velutina, one pale blue
and one Of dark. That for the little
girl had plated yoke of the same, and
the sleeves also. Around the waist was
twisted wide cheney sash ribbon in
delicate colors and floral pattern. The
suit for the boy was made with loose
blouse, the sleeves being plated at the
waist to form cuffs. The trousers were
large and loose and gathered at the
knees, so as to permit the goods to form
folds. With this was deep Venetian
lace collar, tied with cord and tassels.
Both boy and girl were to have Tam O.
Shanter hats Of the same material as
their respective suits.

MORE RuNCOkiRE.

Msyorelect Tiepke, speaking at the
Garfield Club Monday night, among
othe things said that next year this city
would have a Republican admir- ,trstion.
The statement is correct, but, by ,.nplica-
t!on, 1t assumes that the Rgpublican
party is not responsible for tAe acts or
omissions OF the present year.
We dispute this theory, &C Vt is well
known that the Mayor has been a life
long Republican, but one who places the
city before party, and because OF that
fact, he has been outvoted and hampered
by the members OF his own party during
the entire year.
Among the members OF thu City Council
was the chairman OF the Re- ublican City
Committee and it was customary 10 hold
caucuses on every ything pre- snted to see
whether it was for the interest OF the
party and not the city that the measure
should pass. The city was a secondary
consideration with them every tirne. Oh
no, MIR. Tiepke; you cannot In this flip
pant manner discard for your party the
odium and responsibility for the NAL ad
ministration OF the present year.

POND.

There will be few tears shed in any city
or town throughout the State, with the
exception OF Woonsocket, over the defeat
OF Mr.. Pond for the office OF Mayor. Mr..
Pond might have known that he was
per,ona non grats to he majority Of the
Democrats OF that city from the very sig
nj fcant occurrence that took place at the
Democratic convention. He paid no at
tention to the handwriting on the wal
and the result is his defeat. Mr.. Pond
has always been a selfish, self seeking
politician, erratic, trucking with the dis
reputable elements in both parties, look
ing for his own glory, grasping, Injecting
too much OF his perrona iiy into affairs a.
though his wish WIS the only one to be
considered. Perhaps II will teach Mr.
Pond lesson that he NIl' not soon for

THE MESSAGE.

The message OF the President Is q clear,
yin commend itself to all thoughtful
\pple. The condition OF our affairs,
Oh at home and abroad, is treated In a
broad, statesmsnlike manner, giving US a
summary OF tue policy and the purpose OF
the ndm inistration in dealing with them.
There has been much OF interest that
has taken place during the last twelve
months in which the country has been
profoundly interested. Our relations with
the South American States have called
for the greatest care. The war In Brazil
has given us anxiety, the action OF our
leading naval officer wing much chagrin
Chill and Costa Rics have also come In for
their share diplomatic correspondence
and 1t is gratifying the manner in which
these negotiations have been carried on
and stand today. The Hawaiian matter
also comes in for consideration, and
rightly, for tie questions OF annexation
and of the restoration OF the monarchy
are questions that have shaken the senti.
ments the people from one end OF the
country to the other. The President has
faith in the course be has laid out for the
administration TO follow and that the
people will come to his view.
So far as our monetary system is con.
cerned the President visoly advises that
no new legislation undertaken at pre-
sent. We do not care tc stir up any more
trouble in the market, and as It is i'm.
possible to tell whtt Congress will do,
II Is best to let good enou gh alone. They
did well when the Sherman act was re-
pealed and the country is now recnperat.
Ing after the false system imposed upon
us by the late naturalization. Let us not
go back on the good we have already
done.
Tariff reform also receives &C alteration
at his hanos. We do need reform and a
good deal OF it, but 1t wants 90 be don,
carefully and thoughtfully aud with du,
consideration to all sections OF tn,
country. There are faults 20 Do founc
with the Wilson bill as there are Will
any bill OF Its character. 1t ia not per
feet but 1t is a measure IN the rigb
direction. And being In the right direc
tion, 1t is the duty OF ever Democrat I,
support II. 1t Is tariff n sasure, as al
other measures passed in ltte years wer
tariff measures. But 1t Is measure tina
lie nearer what the people want than an.
that has been yet proposed, ana for tina
reason is worthy OF considers zion.
We only hope that now that res

IL will snow itself what II IL ip name,
government by the people, toi the peopl
and Of the people.

BEGIN NOW.

Some one has said that a good general
does the best part Of his fighting before
a shot has been fired. What is true of
the field of war is true Of that of poll
tics. One political campaign over, it is
time to begin to prepare for the next.
That Mr.. Harrison realizes this is
evident from his words 10 the irrepres-
sible interviewer who risked the dangers
of Illinois marshes to follow the ex-
president to his duck-hunting retreat.
Keep mp the battle, keep up the bat
tle," were the words of the sturdy sol
der and no less sturdy statesman when
asked rs TO the future course OF the Re-
publican party.
He had no reasons to assign for the
failure of his party to win last fall; his
only thought is of the future, and is full
of hope. His example is good one for
political leaders to follow. Speculation
as to the causes of defeat is we'll enough
in its way. If mistakes dave been made
we should have heads long enough TO
see what they were and guard against
them in the future. Then drop the past
and act in the present for the future
The next national campaign is four
years away, but the work which will
give victory to the Republican party is
right before us.
Till the party leaders everywhere re.
member this all political contests, no
matter how trivial, will have bearing
upon the great campaign of 1896. The
issues should be met bravely, vigor.
ously, and Mr.. Harrison's Keep up the
battle, keep up the BATTLE" is first
class slogan for the struggle.

might quit work at time and under
conditions which might jeopardize the
public interests that their employers
have, owing TO their quasi-public char
acter, higher claim upon their service
than that existing in the case OF ordi-
nary employees; that while the courts
do not assume the power TO compel rail-
road employees to continue their service
to their employers against their Will,
they will undertake to compel them TO
perform their whole duty while such
relations continue and that in the par
ticular case before the court 1T claimed
the right to determine when their rela-
tions to their employers legally terIni-
mated.
There is great public interest in the
outcome of this case. III the position OF
this judge is not maintained IL Is evil
dent that the attempt to hold railroads
responsible TO the public can only be
partially sustained, as corporations are
powerless TO deliver freight when engi-
neers refuse TO work.
If the decision is sustained it follows
that organized labor cannot use the
strike to coerce corporations with the
same freedom that has been observed.
There is a difference of opinion re-
garding the effect of this new policy
upon organized labor. Some leaders
hold that il would crush labor organi-
cations, while others think its tendency
to place railroads under state control
would greatly benefit labor by further
ing one of its pet projects and making
the relations between employer and en-
ploye more matter regulated by law.
