ty dresses and tea gowns for ''grownup
ladies" as children say, but are especially
suitable for little girls and misses attire,
being simple. dainty and inexpensive. Mar
row ribbon bands, SO much used as trim
ming of late, are a particularly appropriate
decoration, the color of the ribbon being
chosen to match that of the figure on the
goods. This garniture is even prettier than
lace for children's frocks, being less quickly
defaced.
Cashmere, flannel, thin French serge,
challie and for exceptional occasions china
silk are the richest materials that should
be used for a little girls gowns. There is
no danger that she will not look daintily
well dressed If her wardrobe is carefully
selected and we'll made. Let money be put
into the fitting and finishing rather than
into the stuff itself. Planned and figured

modest amount of fine valenciennes lace or
delicate embroidery are infinitely prefera-

CHICAGO, April 2l.--Mayor Hopkins
has refused to see the committee which
has in charge the arrangements for
greeting Kelly's arrival in Chicago, and
It is intimated that the army will receive
scant courtesy at the hands of the Chi

been expected to prevent the army's
being made to organize a distinctive
Chicago army, but so far only 100 re-

Very Elegant. Hard to Fit and Not En-

The princess robe, declared by the arbi-
trary law of fashion to be the mode, has not
been adopted with whole souled enthu-
siasm, although it has a certain elegance
that two piece gowns never attain, no mat
ter how rich or in how good taste they may
be. Perhaps the small number of princess
costumes seen is due to the fact that they
are extremely difficult to fit properly, and

nal in size, and coming from states
widely separated show that the polit-
ical current is running strongly IN
favor Of the republicans all over the
north. Local elections have cmpha-
sized these Indications. If these
elections were held today it IS prola
bic that the republican pluraliticS
would be even larger than We're re-
corded. IT is natural that the dem

that three significant elections in the

BALTIMORE, Aug. 15.-A special to

General CoXcv came near being
mobbcd at Camp Lost Liberty yes

taking away seven Of his horses, and
when questioned about the move

said he was done with the scheme.
This greatly inccnscd the five men

was obliged to beat Il hastN retreat
on one of the horses. The other
horses were driven around the back
road and in this way he got posses

needed" Yet the legislative repre-
scntatives Of the party which the
Miner dcsignates Ar ''honest. consc!-
cnt: md fearless in the discharge
OF du,v," entirely ignoring the
nrigl t,u wishes Of the people, lent
themselves to one g. the most dis
gract:"nl factional fights that ever
sullicd the fair name Of a sovereign
state: became willing tools Of two
men, one Of whom was spending mon
ey freely to buy his way into the
United States senate, and the other
was giving up just as freely to prevent
his doing 50, on account Of personal
animosty The rights Of the people
to representation were brazcnly ig-
nored and the election Of a senator
became simply battle of money.
The battle was kept up day after day
until the last day Of the session was
reached: and the rx,;u}t was a vacancy
for two years. So much for the part
the democratic party played III tho
political drama which has been Il dis
grace to the state ever since. The
populist members at any time during
the fight. and especially after it hac
been demonstrated that the people
had no hope from the democratic
party in seeing that their ''rights as
citizens Of a sovereign state Wcr(
never abridged," always had it il
their power to join with the rcpubli
cans in electing a United States sen
ator. Their three votes would hay,
| lust proved sufficient. But they wal
lowed as deep in the mud as the dem
ocrats in the mire; they gave them
selves up to the pursuit Of Doodle a
grcedily as ever did a democratic
ward rustlcr inthc tcndcrloin district:
Of New York city, and to them a.
much as to the democrats does thu
blame attach for the vacancy in Mon
tana's senatorial representation "a
the very time when it most nccdc(
full representation in the laW-mak
ing chamber Of the nation" Verify
the people Of the state have little t.
thank either Of those two parties 70
during the past two years.
The Miner goes on, in the cXtrac
quoted above, to blame the republjca1
governor for not calling that sam
gang together again, that the dis
graceful acts Of those days might b
repeated and perchuncc the Doodle Q
the Minors owner prevail to purchas
a senatorial seat. The governor wa
right, and thousands Of honest demo
Gratis throughout the state have az
plaudcd his action. The gang tla
heapcd enough disgrace upon the fai
name Of the state, and the people
who had no interest in the persona
differences Of democratic millionaircS
did not care to have the mcaSlIr
thereof increased. This is 4 tai
presentation Of the way in which tn
democratic and ropulist Legislator
represented their constituents in til
last legislative assembly, and as tn
Miner unWittingly but truthfully re
marks: "4\ll this did not occur S
long ago that the people have forgot
ten it and they are only bidin5 thcj
time to show that the memory 0
that wrong lives still strong With
them"
Ais for the claim that "dcmOcrat
will control the legislature and wi
elect two senators from that party
represent Montana in the senate"
IS too prcposterous to discuss.

Defeat with Dishonor.
New York Sun. ]

Grover Cleveland's plurality for Presi-
dent on the popular vote in all the forty
four states of the Union fifteen months
ago was 1866, 211. The plurality on
Tuesday last against Mr.. Cleveland and
the policies of his administration, was
half as large as that, in the single State
of Pennsylvania, one state out OF the
forty four.
Such is the verdict from Pennsylvania.
6 The verdict from New York fortnight
ago as the same. 1t will be the same
wherever the party people get chance
to vote.
Political disaster and new humiiiations
are closing in upon the Democracy from
every quarter. The popular condemna-
ton of the dishonest, antl-Democrauic
Wilson bill, the insane income-ta tax pro-
isct, and the infamous monarchical plot
which the present administration has
made its distinctive feature, takes an
impressive form whenever and wherever
the ballot boxes are opened.
This is the time to tell the plain trnth;
and here is the truth in it's nakedness.

or in an honest attempt to redeem
sacred pledge, or for the right. or for the
flag, can never be dishonorable. That is
not the sort of defeat to which Grover
Cleveland has led the Democracy in the
eleven months since he entered into Office
with a commission plainly written, and
straight and clear way before him.

CAPE ELIZABETH.

The Republican town committee met
at town hall Saturday afternoon for con-
ference and interchange of opinions.
Nearly every member was present, be-
sides many other leading Republicans.
They canvassed the situation and fixed
day Tor holding their caucus, Thursday
afternoon next. The reorganization OF
the experimenting school committee re-
celved, more attention than any other
subject, all advocating an increase OF the
board, some to five memb ers, others to
seven. ssIt is very certain that the COM
mittee will be augmented in number.
and probably to the utmost limit under
the new school law, as it is believed by
many that the larger numb Der Will best
conserve the interests of the whole town.
Albeit, all compensation and authority
is vested in one mem Der, the supervisor,
there is no lack of willing candidates
for places on the board. There are two
hold-over mem bers, Messrs. Evans and
Hill, while Mr.. Pickett, the retiring
member, will be candidate to succeed
himself.
There are seven regular practicing
physicians in the town, and on the
hypothesis that physic is non partisan,
nearly. if not all of these, will be pre-
sented in the several caucuses for places
on the school board. 1t may be that one
of the two hold-overs will be chosen
supervisor, hut no on will manifest sur
prise if one of the members gets the
plum.
Saturday and Sunday were regarded
by many as the coldest days every ex-
perienced at the Cape. The mercury
sank to twenty degrees below zero each
day, which residents say is the coolest
ever recorded here. A small steamer is
pinned in the dry dock by the sudden
freeze-up.
The severity OF the winter has resulted
in much serious sickness in town,
especially among the old war veterans.
Among the latter class who have been
severely affected are John S. Wright of
Cash's Corner, Hugh Aierriman and
Noah Knight of South Portland and M.
A. Hanna and Peter Millett of Knight
