Victory for Sound Money.

The Wilson bill repeating the enforced
silver purchase clause of the Sherman
act passed the House of Representatives
at Washington, by 100 majority. The
first test vote came on the Bland amend
ment making the ratio of silver to gold
l6 to |. \ party analysis of the vote
results as>follows, not taking into ac-
count the Populist vote;
Sound-money Republicans ll2
Free-silver Republicans l3
Republicans sound-money majority 80
Sound-money Democrats ia
Frec-silyer Democrats 90
Democratic sound-money majority 10
The result is IA route of the free silver
cohorts beyond the expectation of the
most sanguine of the friends of the bill
and of sound-money men, and the fact
that slight majority even. of the Demo-
cratic members voted for repeal must be
very gratifying to President Cleveland.
We believe this was brought about
largely by the Presidents course. 1t
will be remembered that very soon after
he had delivered his message to Con-
gress. he left for Buzzard's Bay and by
this course and his manner in taking it
he gave out to Democratic Congressman
that they need not expect to have in
iluence in the matter of patronage I'M
less they voted FIR repeal. President
Cleveland knew his men and knew this
was the very strongest argument he
could use with them.
This emphatic action in the House
will have good effect upon senators.
1t may not convert many of them but
it will have a tendency to hasten action
and must greatly strengthen the friends
of the measure.

The situation in regard to labor and
manufacturing has something in way of
change day by day not all good and not
all bad. something of mixture with the
unfavorahlc rredominating.
\ crisis appears to lac at hand in the
shoe business at Auburn with prospect
of Il long contest between organized la
Dor and the manufacturer who does not
relish the idea of labor unions stepping
in and debating terms between him and
the men he employs.
The cutters in one factory, on Satur-
day last, struck and left work without
giving the weeks notice required in the
agreement under which they work.
which is equally binding on the ,mploy-
er and empoyc, and on Monday cutters
in every shop in the Manufacturers As
ISOLATION we're notified that their services
will not be required after saturday next
This is Il contrast between the Mauufac-
turers Association and the Labor Mons.
In these times when the Manufacturer
is not anxious to run his factory and
about "a soon shut down rs not the la-
Dor unions must be ut n disadvantage.
The Eastern Forge Company of Port
land has reduced the wages . to 80
cents per day.
The shut down at York mills is con-
tinued.
Fall River Manufacturers vote to cut
down wages 10 to ID per cent beginning
Sept. 18th.
In Providence, Il. l.. some mills are
re-uming and others are closed.
Wthins 10 days 5000 iron and steel
workers will return to work in the vi
entity of Wheeling, Ohio, which will
give employment to full 2000 others
in subsidiary trades.
The shoe factory at East Pepperill.
Mass, has closed indefinitely.

A Young man came in from the conn
try the other day with pretty girl.
They came to get married, and they
wanted to be married by a we'll known
clergyman. That was a notion Of the
girls. They took Il cab TO the house Of
the Rev. Dr. Macarthur at 1853 West
Fifty seventh street. The house was
closed. Then they drove to the house Of
DR.. w. II. p. Faunce of the Fifth Ave
nue. Baptist church 1t is at 2 West
Forty-sixth street and was closed. DR.
John X. PaxtOns residence is down the
came street, across the way, at 81. They
went there. 1t was closed. Next they
tried 1923 Madison avenue. where DIR. +.
Walpole Warren lives. Blinds were
down and doors locked tight. They next
drove to 3i2 on the same avenue. David
H. Greer, the famous rector of st. Bar
tholomew's, lives there when he is at
home, but he is not at home His house
was boarded up tight
Then they tried DR. Halls beautiful
residence at 7l2 Fifth avenue. They
thanked heaven for it was evidently in
habited But the maid disappointed
them by saying that DR.. Hall had gone
to Europe for three weeks. Then the
young man looked up 10 more well

drove to each one of their houses. Every
one, without exception. was out Of town.
Then the couple went home and were

Clairvovance is the midsummer mad
ness in Boston. This view is not adj
mitted a Boston woman says that in
hot weather the next thing to taking off
the flesh and sitting III ones bones Is to
have dealings with the occult. What
ever phase may be put upon it, in large
circle of people in Boston whose doings
are regarded rs of consequence, each
has his OF her clairvoyant, and women
exchange and recommend mediums as
they do books or patterns. 1t is needless
to say that although this new diversion
is not discussed publicly the very high
est view is taken of it. Under the shadow
Of Harvard and Professor James it has a
scientific aspect.
\ woman who would describe herself
as earnest says that i'll her opinion the
medium gets into communication with
her higher sclf-not the medium who
most likely lives up back stairs in di-
shevcled Mother Hubbard and does not
necessarily have II higher self. This
communion with the visitors subcon-
sciousness trmscends all mind reading
These mediums are consulted in the
gravest matters of business and affairs,
In one cast rich man had died, and his
Will could not be found. a clarVoyant

Costly Railroads.

The costliest mile of railway is mile

Forth bridge. The length of this por-

of it was considerably over 81 600, 900.

Suggestion Not Needed.

One OF our exchanges makes the some
what amusing suggestion that the peo-
pie of Maine let the President know
that we believe in sound currency. It
would be Interesting TO know in whose
mind there exists to day any doubt ON
this point. Certainly the President is
in need of no instruction as to the atti-
tude of Maine, or if he is hc can obtain
the necessary information by perusal
OF the election returns in every president
tial contest. We do not apprehend that
meetings of the various boards of trade
to announce Il self-evidcnt tru h would
make the fish bite any better aud fish
ing appears to be the principal occupa-
ton OF the President at the present
There is no doubt that the congressional
delegation will reflect the voice of the
people of Maine when it is the pleasure
of the Democratic silver majority to
give them and other Republicans an
opportunity to vote.- bangor Wig anil

Here the lover of good old fashioned
black tea can buy for % cts. as good Il
tea as is usually sold for b cts. and up

Or as good formosa tea for 40 cts.
as can be obtained elsewhere at 30 cts
but no presents.
Or the finest tea sold in the county at
30 cts. usually sold from 90 cts. to 7jcts.,
and no presents with this tea rs We

Ten cents saved on pound of tea is
better than ten cents earned a. no time

a Severe Storm.

destructive to property, particularly
along the Atlantic coast in the southern
states. At Savannah, Ga, the wharves
