REPUBLICAN STATE PLATFORM.

Reafirming the national Republican plat
form of 1892.
Resolved, First-That the constant patri.
Otism OF our party is in itself guarantee u
the nation that the interests OF its defenders
their widows and orphans will be Literally
cared for, and we denounce their cruel and
deliberate betrayal by the present demo-
cratic administration.
Second-We adhere to the republican doc
trine of protection and believe that tariff
laws should protect the products OF the farm
as well as Of the factory.
Third-The American people favor bine.-
allism and the republican pyriy demands
the use OF both q Id and silver as standard
money with such restrictions and under
such provisions. To be determined by leglsla-
tiOn, as will secure the maintenance OF the
parity Of values Of the two metals. and that
the purchasing and debt-paying power OF the
be at all times equal. The interests OF the
producers OF the country, its farmers and Its
working men, demand that the minis be
opened to the coinage Of silver OF the mines
If the United States and that congress should
enact law levying a tax upon impOrtatiOns
Of foreign silver sufficient to fully protect
the products Of our own mines.
FOurth-We favor national and state legls-
latiOn for the encouragement OF irrigation.
Eifth-We denOunce the present admlnls-
tratiOn for its violation Of the laws and con-
tempt Of the courts. the corruption and i'll
competency Of its officials. its gross misman-
agement Of the state institutions and for the
diScredit it has brought upon the good name
Of the state. And We pledge the republican
party and the nominees Of this convention
TO faithful and economical discharge OF all
official duties and TO obedience TO the man
dates Of the courts.
Sixth-To the maintenance OF these princi-
pies we invite the support Of all patriotic cit
liens.

The Desert Blossoms.

While much Of the area of New
Mexico and Arizona is ''arid land"
onwhich such hardy vegetation as can
exist is low, sparse and dry, where
ever the soil is irrigated its enduring
fertility is revealed. The water
turned over the land in the lower
valleys carries the detritus of noun
tain sides in solution. which makes
tertilizing deposit akin to that left
by the annual foundations in the val
ley OF the Nile. Such a soil, in many
places composed of disintegrated
volcanic matter, is naturally favora-
bic to the cultivation of the vine,
and the visitor is not surprised at
the fine quality Of the Rio Grande
grapes, and-under proper vintage
pr0cesses-the wines. Such fruits
as apples, peaches nectarines and
plums, raised on the higher slopes
and levels, are unsurpassed anywhere
in richness and 6avur

A World In Itself,

The modern American man-of-war
is little world in itself, or perhaps
more properly floating city, with
its inhabitants of many trades and
professions. Not only is there a doc
tor to dose you and chaplain to
care for your spiritual welfare, but
many cooks, several carpenters,
skilled machinists. electricians, tail
ors, musicians and BARRIERS. There
is at least one clever sailorman told
off as ships writer, which officer cor
responds closely to the old-fashioned
scrivener. It thus happens that one
can have almost anything made
aboard ship. from an engrossed copy
Of a complimentary resolution to a
complicated piece of machinery or
cabinet work.

For the benefit of the Caldwell
NeoOS we will say that George Ewing
requested before the convention that
lis name should not be presented at
all, and it was generally known that
he did not wish denomination. As
for providing for Mr., ShapCOtt, he
was nominated in the convention on
first ballot by more than twO-thirdS
Of all votes cast-hence it is eIident
that the convention wanted him and
knew its business. How about your
man Simpson as a perpetual Candi-
date? Then there's Major Ferguson,
who has been candidate ever since
he crossed the line Of Sumner county,
and Harry Woods, who has cast long
ing eyes at the county attorneys Of
flee ever since he could vote.

Improving a Bulgarian Town

No European town has been more
conspicuously improved in recent
years than Sofia, the capital of Bull
garia A series Of splendid boule-
wards has been cut through the mass
OF old narrow streets and Turkish
houses, one encircling the city,
while others run across it in various
directions; and still more spacious
avenue, 1917 feet wide, and set with
six rows Of trees, leads from the CEN
ter OF the town to the railway sta
ton, while another, called the BOule-
ward Stambuloff, runs from the same
point to the new park. This park is
very large and is said to be we'll
planted. A great public garden has
also been formed in the middle oil
the town, with smaller ga dens al
various points, and a nursery, cover
ing 100 acres, has been established
in the subj, BIS, where plants will be
grown for the public grounds and
will also be sold to private pur
chasers Garden and Forest.

A Scientific Explanation OF a Common
Fact-Dust In Cupboards.

A Scientific Explanation OF a Common
Fact-Dust in Cupboards.
When the air around us becomes
condensed-shrinks into a smaller
,Volume--it becomes heavier, puts
greater pressure on the surface Of
the mercury and makes it ascend in
the tube; then the mercury is said to
rise. When the air expands -swells
into larger volume-it becomes
lighter, the pressure on the mercury
sinks in the tube, and the barometer
Is said to fall. Therefore, every
change of the height of the quick
silver which we observe is sign
and measure Of a change in the vol
pne of the air around us, says the
Popular Science Monthly.
Further, this change IN the vol
ume tells no less upon the air inside
our cases and cupboards. When the
barometer falls the air around ex-
psnds into larger volume, and the
air inside the cupboard also expands
and forces itself out at every minute
erevice. When the barometer rises
again, the air inside the cupboard,
as well as outside, condenses and
shrinks, and the air is forced back
1nto the cupboard to eQualize the
pressure, and, along with the air, in
goes the dust The smaller the crew
ice, the stronger the jet of air and
the further goes the dirt. Witness
the dirt tracks so often seen in i'm
perfectly framed engravings or pho
tographs. Remember, ladies and
gentlemen, whenever you see the
barometer rising that an additional
charge Of dust is entering your cup
boards and drawers.

LINCOLN IN HISTORY.
Much More Than Emancipation involved
In The Grill IHar

Much More Than Emancipation involved
in the Civil War.
The Rev. John Coleman Adams
maintains in the Century that LIN
coin was much moro than the grea,
emancipation. lie says:
This conviction is pronounced
with a full sense Of the possible
shock it may bring to those Who
love to think Of l.incoln's cl.ist re-
nown as connected with the race he
freed from bondage. It is hard for
many of us not to feel that emanci-
patton was the great achievement Of
that struggle. and that the war was
waged to decide whether this should
be free nation or a land OF bonds
and stripes. But the wiser years
will decide against us. All our thank
fulness and honor to the man who
made the act of emancipation a
weapon with which TO strike rebellion
must not blind US to the fac, that this
splendid stroke Of policy, this noble
deed o. statecraft, was only an Incl
dent and not the aim OF the strug-
gle. Viewed in its relations to the
long world-history, the development
Of mankind, the work OF civilization,
the American people under their
great leader were engaged in de.
termining whether the great princi-
pie OF federation, the peaceful cock
istence Of great states, should sue
coed or fail. They were in strug-
gle to decide whether the rule OF
peace and goodwill should extend,
or stop aud go no further. And
Abraham Llncoln's clear, unerring
eye perceived the meaning of the
struggle, his strong mind grasped
its vital import, and his steadfast
soul chung to that thought with a
tenacity that could be expressed
only in some such words as Paul's.
This one thing | do"
We have thus far been accustomed
to rank our great president among
the heroes of our own land, and sell
dom have dared to talk of him in
connection with his place among the
worlds famous ones. Sometimes it
has seemed to come to US that he
was worthy fame outside the limits
OF this land. Some rare voices have
found courage to say,as Lowell said:
Here was type of the true elder race,
ana one OF PIutarcnS men talked with us
face to face
There is enough in his personality,
so fresh, so strong, so inspiring, to
justify our highest pride IN him, and
to make US hold up this new product
OF our new land, whose honesty and
strong good sense, whose earnest
faith and indomitable purpose, fit
him to stand like modern Aristides
or New World Cato But when the
slow judgment Of the years is made
up, it will take this man Of the West,
who led Us through the fires Of a
terrible civil strife, and, seeing how
his achievements reached out to all
mankind and secured the work
which cost the toll and struggle Of
ages, will range him side by side
with the men who saved Greece from
Persian barbarism, and those who
saved Rome from Gallo anarchy, and
those who gave this continent to the
free institutions Of the English race.
