CLEVELAND. Ohio, December .6-The
Iron Trade Review this week says: AL
though December is usually marked by
halting business and a general waiting for
new year developments. it's first week has
shown a good deal of iron and steel trad
ing in some sections at least. Chicago
seems to lead, the central west has been
somewhat less active and the minimum of
activity appears in the east. Reports agree
that purchases of foundry irons have been
expanding in the past four weeks. and the
number of buyers willing to contract far
into 1895 has increased as signs have APP
peared that the tendency will be upward
rather than a continuation of the decline
that has been practically without Interrupt
ton In the past two years.

NJ. ELIZABETH LEASE

Mr.. Lease who had been summoned
10 Kansas City, Kansas, as a witness in
q libel suit of Lewelling versus Smith,
was given a reception by the equal suf-
frage women of Kansas City, Missouri,
night before last. The political madam
was in high feather having just come
from northwest Kansas where she had
been talking woman suffrage and Pop
u'ism. She didn't seem, however, to be
relishing the jobs being given her BY
Mrs. Anna Diggs. She is reported as
having opened out as follows on Kansas
politics, after having declared that the
governor would find he had caught a
tartar in the person of Smith of bribing
fame.
''ln political way she predicted that
fusion was entirely and completely dead
in Kansas; that Vincent. who was
turned down at the last convention bv
the fusionists, would be the Popdlist
nominee for governor: that John Martin
was now serving his last term in the
United States senate and that Jerry
Simpson would have ample leisure TO at
tend TO his farm after the next election"

NO LEGAL NATIONAL HOLIDAY.

1t will no doubt be a surprise to a
great many people to be told that there
is no national holiday, not even the
Fourth Of July. Congress has at various
times appointed special holidays, and
has recognized the existence of certain
days as holidays, for commercial pur-
poses, but there is no general statute
on the subject. The proclamation of
the president designating day of
thanksgiving is not mandatory and
only makes it holiday in those states
which provide by law for it.
There are a number of days that
are made legal holidays in most
of the states by legislative enactment. In
all the states except Massachusetts, New
Hampshire and Rhode Island, January
l is legal holiday. January s, the
anniversary of the battle of New Or
leans, is legal holiday in Louisiana,
only. February 12, Lincoln's birthday,
in Illinois. February %, Washington's
birthday, in all the states except Iowa,
Arkansas and Mississippi. May 80, Dec
Tennessee and Oklahoma July 4, In
dependence Day, in all the states. Sep
TENDER 3, Labor Day, i'll most of the
states, including Kansas. General cleo
ton day in November-one of the first
eight days of the month-n the states
that hold general elections at that time;
0his year the day will fall on the 6th).
Thanksgiving day-usually the last
Thursday in November-is observed in
all the states, though in some it is not
a statutory holiday. December 25, in all
the states.
Sundays, and fast days whenever APP
pointed, are legal holidays in nearly all
lie states.
Arbor day is legal holiday in Kansas
and many other states, the day being set
by the governor, in April, except Cali
fornia, in September, and Idaho iu May.
Every Saturday after IL o'clock noon
is legal holiday in New York, New
jersey and the city of New Orleans, and
in Pennsylvania, Maryland and New
Castle county, Delaware, from June to
September 3.
From the foregoing roster it is seen
that the multiplicity and constantly null
tiplying legal holidays is the result of
legislative enactment in the states and
not of national legislation.

Is Elected Commander OF the Depart

The news of the election Of Judge w.
P. Campbell to the commandership of
the Grand Army Of the Republic for the
state of Kansas was received last even.
ing by his friends in this city with great
pleasure. They know him. They rec
ognize him as man Of much more
than ordinary executive ability, and
that he Will make probably the
strongest commanding officer ever
elected by the department. If there is
any phase of public life or service
in which he has taken more
interest than another it has
been that of the ex-Union soldier.
whose cause has ever been his cause.
PROFESSIONALLY he has delivered more
stirring addresses at reunions and old
soldier gatherings than any man in the
state. His services for such occasions
in this section of the state have always
been sought. Many of his strongest
political appeals have found their win
ming elements in his patriotic and i'm
FASHIONED speeches for and in behalf of
the men who counted all as nothing

country in the hour of its extremity.

prediction that the end of his COM

partment of Kansas stronger than at

AN LAMITY SOCIETY.

A correspondent of the st. Louis Globe,
writing from Abilene, Kan, has this to
say of colony of DIennonites located in
that vicinity
The Mennonites number several thous-
and, but they are never heard of in poll
tics. They are busy tilling their 100000
acres, raising stock, planting orchards. and
piling up wealth. The wide-awake wes-
terDer standing on the street corner eX-
planning the contraction of the currency"
10 a knot of listeners sees a half dozen odd
looking wagons come toiiing up the road.
They are loaded with wheat aud solemn
faced Mennonites, who guide the sober
teams, pocket the payment, and trudge
hOmeward. The orators hold forth in the
country school houses and the eager real
estate agent plats additions to the towns,
but the Mennonltes pay no attention to
either. They keep on selling wheat ana
corn and cattle until they have be-
come the richest class of farmers,
probably, their number considered, that
Kansas affords. They take few papers,
they do not vote. they care nothing
whether the government is Republican or
Democratic In its management. They are
as isolated as though they wers upon ii
sea island, except as they bring in their
produce to the shipping station.
1T is noticeable that nearly all the lands
are In the much-discussed arid belt yet
tho Mennonites never ask aid or seed
wheat. They prosper every year and their
homes are veritable storehouses Of garden
and field products. To step into them is
like visit to the land of the Nolga.
curious furniture, strange garb, and
peculiar habits impress one with the feel
ing that he Is in another land and another
age"
There are native American farmers in
Kansas and other states who would do
well TO follow the example of these plain
people. While it is the duty of
every man of lawful age to
exercise the right of franchise, it must
be allowed that theipeaceable, law-abid-
ing customs of these people atone for no
small amount of mere omission of duty.
If they fail TO vote they, at least, are not
sgitators or disturbers of public peace.
If they are not an active force in build
;ng up society they never engage in
pulling it down. Their simple, frugal
lives furnish a perfect example Of what
may be attained by farming with brains
and muscle instead of jaw. Ii is the
very essence of the great economic prin-
ciple which applies to all pursults-the
principle of keeping the outlay below
that of the income, Ii this
rule had been more universally observed
there would have been less demand for
seed wheat from our western counties,
and Kansas would not have enjoyed the
distinction of being the rendezvous for
inlporfed socialists cr caIap,i,r I,o,rlar-
More Mennonites and less agitation
would yield more corn and less political
papdemonium.

lob. CONSISTENCY, THOU

1t all depends, you know. And this
is lust as true of the progressive crank
as of the conservative and level-headed
citizen. Rev. A. S. Embree of Topeka,
who, next to Rev. Miner, has cried the
longest and loudest for the punishment
of every violator of the prohibitory law,
has had two or three of his druggist
friends caught in the meshes of the
Murray enactment at Hiawatha. They
were drugstore jointists. rather than OF
the lunch-counter and cigar-stand vari-
ETY.. One of them happened to be a
member of the Methodist church, OF
which Mr.. Embree was the pastor
Tor druggist to be convicted under
that law is to lose his membership In the
state board of pharmacy, one OF whom
the said druggist seems to have been.
So Rev. Mr.. Embree, not out of any
fear that his former parishioner
had sacrificed his chances for paradise;
not for any exalted convictions as to the
sacredness of laws passed by Kansas
politicians, but out of solicitude for the
business interests of one who had been
generous contributor, writes a letter to
Governor Leweliing praying his excel
lency to show executive ciemency for
his friends 10y pardoning them for vio-
lation of law of which they had been
duly convicted, setting forth as one
reason that it would drive his guilty
friends 'out of business which 1t has
required years to establish" We are
not finding fault that Embrse found
mercy pleading at his heart for his own,
nor for writing to Governor Lewelling
that "their prompt and unconditional
pardon would give me great pleasure"
but would remind him, and all others,
that just such is the plea of all like petit |
tons for such pardons, followed by just |
such like expressions of anticipated |
pleasure, which fact they should remem-
Der when they have got their righteously |
indignant clutches on some other fellow |
who happens to be selling cigars or |
lunch in connection with the prescribed |
traffic instead of selling quinine and |
fancy soaps, and that the business of the |
one would be just as certainly destroyed
as it would be if he had been member
of Rev. Embree's church. In the en-
fOrcement of law there should not be,
upon the part of extremists, at least, so
much stress laid Oh the fact "of whose
OK is it that's gored:"

1t was only little song. tender and sweet.
But it soothed stricken heart;
And from stony paths drew the weary feet
Within fiowery park.
it was only little word, cruel and cold,
From lips we love.
But 1t wounded An immortal soul;
The wound was felt above.
Twas only merry laugh, happy and bright,
Far better than signing.
1t cheered watcher in The lonely night,
Ana soothed Ire dying.
Twas only wor!less aver rom broken

But it reached Gods hrono.
With the quiyeri..g sigh t..-.- ,ouched each

With melody unknown.
Twas only a dew-drop; i'll silence 1t fell.
And saved a diving flower,
In its fragrance and its beauty who can tell
The magic of its power.

That make life glad.
