John Rudberg returned Tuesday
from trip to the Twin Cities, and
yesterday closed deal for the pur-
chase of the stock and business of the
New York Shoe store, of j. b. Rich

collect all accounts. Mr.. Rudberg
has managed the store during the past
year or more with such success that
the business has steadily increased
until it is one of the best patroniZed

the stock at such low figure that he
can sell at reasonable prices, and is
quoting some bargains. a large new
stock is also on the way.
We wish Mr.: Rudberg success in his

achieve, as he is rustler after bust

found that only two of them understood
it as he did. Eighty-fve of them knew
only his wife's meaning, and yet that

The other thirty-five knew both meanings,

less familiar.
A similar experience was recently had
in little social party in this city. They
were laughing over a story OF a man who
boosted of the water at his home being
pure and liquid" when they were called
upon for definition of liquid" Every
one declared that it was synonymous with
fluid" A call was then made for
"Hmpid,'' and all insisted that "a limpid
stream. was a quiet, gentle one, instead
Of a clear one. ''Livid" was uniformly
defined as "ghastly pale" whereas it
means "black and blue" There was no
disagreement on "lurid' as meaning
bright red, like the flames of a fire. This
is probably due to the fire reporter who
ueSCLiOSS the luliu HdHles' when ne
should speak Of the lurid clouds colored
by the flames. "Lurid" means gloomy
and dismal. 1t is probable that no more
useful or entertaining amusement could be
found for an evening party than a game
Of definition of words commonly misused.
1t would certainly be very startling to a
great many people who think they under

Population of France.

Those who are 50 deeply concerned
about the tardy increase of the French
population will not be able to extract
much comfort from the 500 pages of sta
tistics issued by the Office du travail, in
which the results of the census of 1891
are ably and carefully summarized. In
the five years from 1886 TO 1891 the total
population of nearly forty million has
increased by only 1242S9. This is the
smallest increase during any similar
period since the beginning of the century.
Its significance will be seen when ii is
compared with the increase of 645. OBJ in
the years 1861, and that of 1907 in
1926. But the manner in which the
repartition of the population has taken
place in the period OF 1SS6-91 is still more
depressing. Not only has the population
remained almost stationary, but the
movement from the rural districts into
the towns has been enormously accelerat-
ed. Paris and the department of the
Seine, for example, have undergone an
increase of 1S0,506, while the population
of Marsef,les has been augmented by
81, SOC. The net result of this movement
in the five years is that the urban popua-
ton has increased by SAC, 1886, against the
total increase for the whole of France of
only 124, 2S9.-Westminste Gazette.

Republican Protestees Starting Up.

Now that they have accomplished the
purpose for which they shut down and
threw their men out of employment. the
republican mill bosses and protectees gen.
orally are resuming operations, full Of ami
nation and buoyancy.
Says a Pittsburg dispatch 10 a Chicago
Mckinley organ: simultaneously with
the announcement of results came a
notice from the Oliver & Roberts wire
company that the rod mill would be start
ed at once. Like many other mills, it
worked only when the mill had orders.
The employers were so we'll pleased over
the election that orders to start up were
given. Other mill owners say they will
now replenish their stocks. and a long
and prosperous period Of activity is
looked for"
Miraculous, One would suppose from
this statement that the Mckinley law was
already restored. and that the mill bosses
We're no longer afflicted with the ruin
Gus Wilson bill" But not so. That bill
is with us to stay for two more years. at
the least of course the mill bosses know
it, and when they rekindle their fires and
proceed to stock up" and hilarlously give
out that they look for "a long and pros
porous period of activity''-when they do
this avOwedly because the election has
gone to suit them they admit that there
is nothing at all ruinous about the free
trade bill" They admit that they expect
a long and prosperous period of activity
under that bill, for everybody knows they
can get no other bill for more than two
years They admit that neither the fear
of the bill nor the bill itself was the
cause of hard times. but that they them
selves purposely made times as bad as
they could for electioneering purposes.
There may be some people who do not
see through their game now, but there

ton from the republicans is the tariff
law. 1t has practically indicated itself
already. The rapid revival of prosperity,
increases of employment and increases Of
wages have shown its benefits so plainly
that even the calamity organs have rec
rapidly increased prosperity under it, and
have undertaken to fortify themselves
against il by claims that republican
victory would prevent further tariff leg
islation and therefore restore prosperity.
The utter falseness of this pretense is
easily demonstrated. The present demo-
cratic congress has the power to make
all the additional tariff legislation that
has been proposed. 1t ought to adopt
that legislation. If it does the people will
have an unanswerable illustration Of the
falseness Of this republican plea. Busi
ness will continue it's improvement, now
we'll under way. 1t will, indeed, improve
much more rapidly, for free coal and free
iron will be of direct advantage to nearly
to the consumer OF the goods. And aside
from this political advantage. the pas
sage Of the pop-gun bills will be right.
They ought to be adopted from adher-
ence to the announced policy Of the dem
ocratic party. They ought to be adopted
because they will be a real benefit to the
country. They ought to be adopted be-
cause the vast majority of the demo-
cratic party, as we'll as many outside of
It. want them adopted. 1t seems plain
that all considerations of principle and
policy call for legislation at the approach
ing session:
1. To put coal on the free list.
2 To put iron on the free list.
8. To put refined sugar on the same
basis as raw sugar.
A. To submit to the states an amend
ment to the constitution providing for
election of senators by popular vote.
The latter is unquestionably desired by
the masses of the people, irrespective Of
party. It Is right It will be most
popular and most desirable reform. The
adoption Of these measures will put the
party in splendid position for the contest
Of 1896. and in a political way that IS the
principal thing to be looked after for the
next two years. They viii also be Of
incalculable benefit to the country. That
should always be the principal thing to
be looked after by any political party.

THE DUTY OF CONGRESS-.

It should not be forgotten by democrats
that the power TO shape the policy of the
country is still in their hands The new
representatives to congress do not go
into Office until next March, and until
that time a democratic congress is re-
spons5ble for the legislation of the coun-
try. The great reform measures adopted
at the last session are absolutely safe
until 1887. They cannot be destroyed by
the republicans until republican presi-
dent is in the white house. The question
for the party now Is what can be added
t. them before the republican house
comes in. The reforms that have been
made viii justify themselves. The only
one OF them that has met serious opposl-
