,eived from Governor Waite of Colorado.
wherein the latter scores congress and
WILL street, and gives his reasons for call

ature The letter reads as follows:
''ln all probability there will be a special
session of our state legislature early in
January. That legislature is not populist
N either branch, although we fairly car
lied the state. We were scientifically
counted out by defects in our Australian
ballot law. The chief object in calling the
special session is TO provide ways aud
means TO furnish work for the unemploy-

EN-. which is fast burdening our mimic
ipalities with debts. and permit the state
counties, cities and school districts to
make public Improvements on their own

scrip receivable for taxes.

Ii is perhaps TOO much to expect an in-
dorssmept of the silver policy that will be
recommended, but il Will force those ideas
TO he front and compel their discussion.
SIN months from now, or one year at
least, il viii be generally acknowledged
that no fellef can be obtained from con

national parties, two of them bitterly op-

THE IRON TRADE.

CLEvELAND, O., Jan. 4.-Tae Iron Trade
Review this week says: The close of 1898
recorded the lowest prices for iron aud
steel in the history of the trade. There has
been Il disposition to think that the COM
ing of 1894 would arrest the downward
tendency, but the evidences are to the con-
trary. IL is known that on ores offers
have been made for the coming year lower
than were touched in 1888 for standard
grades. The same Is true of pig iron.
Producers know that with greater reduc-
tions in labor. prices will be still further
depressed, ami with foreign competition
added To that of home, the tendency must
be still further downward.

it advisable to discontinue work and the

One of Chicago's most prominent
lawyers tells good story on himself.
He says:
''It was when used to practice law
in little town near the center of
the state. A farmer had one of his
neighbors arrested for stealing ducks.
and l was employed by the accused to
endcavor to convince the court that
such was not the case. The plaintiff
was positive his ne;ghbor was guilty
of the offense chargedagsinst him, be-
cause he had seen the ducks in defend
ants yard.
How do you know they are your
ducks? l askeds
"'Oh, should know my ducks any
where replied the farmer; and he
went into description of their differ
ent peculiarities whereby he could
readily distinguish them from others.
why said /, those ducks can't be
of such a rare breed. / have seen

That's not at all unlikely re-
piled the farmer. for they are not the
