SUCH uprisings as the Coxey move
ment, the mining troubles, strikes, etc..
demonstrate that there is something
wrong with the laws of the country;
and since we are living under republi-
can laws, we must conclude that
the republican party is responsible for
existing conditions.

THE howl going up from the repub'

assessment of pullman cars is quite in
line with their usual style. The first
tax Pullman ever paid in Kansas was
collected by a populist attorney gener-

man, never paid one cent although as
sessed. Last year his cars were assess
ed at 81, 500 each, and this year it was
raised to 5000. Next.-Pratt Union.

THE Cresset tries to make it ap-

this to be false. This matter has been

1T waste of paper to go through the
whole thing again. The Cresset is
very ungenerous in not stating the

why should the board be charged of
unfairness in favoring Mr.. Pullman

The variety in style and texture Of the
dainty Summer blouses and shirt waists
Is responsible for the buckle fad. which
will prove heavy drain on the ordinary
pocketbook.
The silver buckles are most popular.
They are long and narrow or round and
much ornamented, Some are of fligree,
while others are plain or oxidized.
Buckles OF black enamel inlaid with sil-
yer or gold are effective upon a deli
cately tinted ribbon belt.
The gold buckles are beautiful enough
to warrant the price at which they are
sold. Plain gold buckles have the
owners monogram engraved upon them.
Among the newest silver buckles are
those inlaid with pale blue enamel. Deli
cate buckles Of tortoise shell afe also
seen this year, inlaid with gold or en-
amel. The buckles which adorn the

Capt. Messel, of the steamship Spree,
which arrived to-day, reports that in
latitude 4l0l and longitude 67.S2 yes
terday. he passed a German oil-tank
steamer bound west, showing signals
indicating that two blades of her pro-
peller were broken. She required no as
sistance, and was moving at the rate
OF Ave or six knots an hour. The Spree
brought l55 cabin and 2ll steerage pas
sengers.
Among her passengers were Gen.
Viele and Mrs. Nicle. Chief Officer
Messel. Of the steamer Spree, is COM
mander this voyage, Capt. Willigerod
having gone to Carlsbad for treatment
owing to illness.
At the Office of Gustav Heye this
morning, II was said the disabled steam
er may possibly be the Washington
Capt. Hinch. which left Hamburg May
Il, bound for this port.
II this is true. the Washington will
have had a very unfortunate voyage.
She sailed from Stettin April 6, and put
into Elsinore about April 8, having been
ashore.
Temporary repairs were made, after
which she proceeded to Hamburg, where
she was docked Having been put in
proper condition. the steamer again
sailed for New York May q, and was

The blue ribbon is the Englishman's s

EPSON Downs will do more to strengthen
Ministry than all majorities ever rolled
up, In the House OF Commons by the
Efforts of the busiest whips.
As the news of the race was flashed

the English Ministry was safe. not be-

THE GORILLA PROFESSOR.

Prof. Garner. the scientist, who has
been studying the domestic habits and
manners of the gorillas in Africa, and
who got himself shut up in an iron
cage In the jungles for the purpose of
being near enough for observation, but
not too near for comfort, Is at present
on visit 20 his home in the United
States.
Tho Professors experience is not ac-
certed with unlimited confidence in
Europe. man named Mclaughlin. who
processes to know all about It. tells the
Paris Figaro that Garner was only in
the jungle two nights, whereupon Labou-
chere makes fun of the Professor in the
London Truth.
When these facts were made known
to Prof. Garner in Cincinnati. his com
ments were brief and very much to the
point, II want to be emphatic right at the
start" he said. ''This fellow McLaugh-
lin Is a liar, and ] will simply slap La
bouchere's face when l return to Eng
land
The remarks Of the Professor will
probably change some OF the opinions
of his two critics. Mr. Mclaughlin may
now be willing to admit that the Profess
sor was among the gorillas long enough
to catch some of their manners. while
Labouchere may be of the opinion that
It would be better to confine Prof. Oar
ner to his iron cage n little longer.
