COPYRIGHT, 1891


Miss Flora McFlimsy has enjoyed the
summer, Mrs. Van Rensselaer, Me-
Elimsey asserts her right to life, lib
srty and the pursuit of happiness with
The first frosts of the fall.
Miss Flora was a pretty girl in rib
oons and lawn. Mrs. Van is a stately
goung matron in jewels and brocades
Here ir nutshell is the secret of the
seasons To the summer the teens: to
he winter the twenties-yes, and the
khirties. The fashions have grown up
since warm weather.
The married woman rules over city
society, and with the opening of the
town house la mode prepares to do the
rich and regal, to bring out thick, mag
nifcent materials for the monday of
developed beauty, making small ac-
counts of the slim loneliness of young
girls.
Brocade is a wonderfully beautiful
material as worn by the married bellies
at theater and concert, at club gather
ings and at Delm6nico suppers-the
first informal reunions of the fall. The
soft luster of the figured silks, the
brilliance of them, the depth of them,
the exquisite shading of tone into tone,
nre things to comfort the eye, or to
anguish it, according to the woman
upon whom their PROJECTIONS are dis
played.
Here is an example. The gown was
worn at Viewpoints last festivity, a
wedding reception which finished up
the season. 1t is made of heavy, soft
pure silk of faint robin's-egg blue
shade, upon which in delicate relief
are thrown figures in two or three
shades of faint pink and gold 1t is
made with a long. flowing skirt and
low bodice, cut square across the
bosom, with shoulder straps of pale
blue spangled velvet, and exquisite
yellowish lace filling in the front of
the waist and making big round short
puffs for sleeves.
And here's another lesson in dress
taught by Mrs. Levi 7. Morton, few
evenings ago. EigureZ-vous, as the

The following story is told by the

who is one Of the best shots in the
army and has reputation for personal
bravery which i second to none: Some
time ago he was detailed a. quarter

for a good while there had been an
enormous lot of swindling going on
and several quartermasters had made

It is said that at Centerville, Iowa
where considerable labor Is employed,
there is open talk OF rebellion, and the
same seems to be the case that is SIM
Hilary situated. Old party leaders cry
"On with the Dance" when want.
misery and priyation are close neigh
bors with revolution. The same caust
was persued by the French emperor
and his advisors just before the revo-
luton in that country. The Estates
men" of this country needed not the
rumbling of discomfort in 1859 and 1850.
Why is it that the leaders turn
deaf ear to the lamentations OF the
masses and thus force on the issue,
which means the splitting OF blood and
ruination of fortunes, when just the
commonest kind of common sense could
avert the catastrophe that is hanging
over this country. U. S. marshals and
troops can hold back the avalanche for
awhile, bu, finally it is likely to break
the BEARERS and flood the country.
This country needs patriots now and
not fools.

The editor of the Rutledge Record

The editor of the Rutledge Record
paid this city a visit last week and
among other things has the following
to say of some of our citizens:
Z. r. Bartlett, the wide-awake, big
hearted and irrepressible real estate
agent was called on next. Though i'm.
mersed in business, he received us
kindly and took time to show Us through
his capacious and well-arranged apart
ments. He is energetic, progressive
and in every way reliable. He has
built up a heavy business, and his repu-
tation for fair dealing is proverbial.
He subscribed for the Record and gave
us an advertisement.
Smoot, Mudd & Wagner were the
next victims. They extended to us a
friendly hand end made us feel perfectly
at home They are shining lights in
the legal profession, standing high in
mentality and being at the front as
pleaders at the bar. They have been
readers of the Record from the first
number.
J. H. Mulch was the next man that
engaged our attention. We found him
surrounded by one of the largest and
must varied stocks of furniture We ever
saw in country town. His large es-
Establishment is literally rammed, cram
med and famed with furniture of every
description. He is certainly prepared
to meet the wants and fancies of his
customers. After showing us through
his mammoth establishment. he SUBJ
scribed for the Record and bade us
adieu.
Brown & Dawson were found in their
mammoth drug store, surrounded by an
endless number of articles in their line,
their goods were neatly displayed and
presented a scene of dazzling beauty.
These gentlemen are noted for their
enterprise and prOgressiveness. In
telligent and liberal, they stand ready
to help along any enterprise calculated
to build up any part of the county. 1t
is unnecessary to add that they sub
scribed for the best paper in Rutledge.
S. NJ. Smith, the jolly bfg-harted and
wide-awake druggist was also inter-
viewed. He presides over as neat a
drug store as could be found in a days
travel. He has place for everything,
and everything is in its place. In q
word, his large stock of drugs is as
bright as a new silver dollar and AS
neat as a pretty girl in fancy tea
gown. OF course he invested in the
Record.
We also called on the editor of the
FARMERS UNION. He was all sun
shine, and seemed to be glad to see us.
We spent several minutes very pleasan-
tly with him and formed a very favor
able opinion of him.

The government has found what
appears to be gigantic frauds in the
contract with Carnegie Company, which
furnished the armor plates for naval
vessels. Vast sums are supposed to have
been stolen in that manner, sufficient
to buy another palace in Scotland

employees were not sufficient to keep the
finances up in proper style and frau6

1 wish to say to the honest and intelli'

tigate the actions of the Democratic

for the purpose of aiding to further rob

Friends, countrymen, Americans, what
are you doing? Where are you letting
prejudice lead you: Stop and think.
Are you freeman to-day or not? Was
the blood of our forefathers spilled for
naught? Did they leave home, friends
and loved ones, and come to America
and here sacrifice their lives and en-
dure the untold privations and hard
ships in establishing this grand and
glorious republic, only to have all their
Efforts cast to the fOurwinds at the
pleasure of monied aristOcracy. Was
the lives of our fathers, brothers and
'ons, who marched to their death in
he late struggle, for the purpose of
holding intact the republic, one of the
Useless sacrifices of life in our history:
Are the great common people of Amer
ica going to stand idly by and see all
the effects of these sacrifices on the part
Of our hOnOred patriots, swept from the
ia e of the earth by one wave of the
great hand of wealth? No, a thousand
times no! They will sally to the sup
port of right to-day as readily as in days
IF yore, If you will be dilligent and
careful in leading them to the right.
The great fault is in the ignorance OF
he or lat working people of America
IN the question of civil government.
Tney are smart, intelligent men in their

difficult to obtain, they are compelled

with The great frauds daily and hourly

ers, if you are young and strong, do not
throw away any opportunity of aiding
persons of your acquaintance, who are
old and intirm: use all your spare time
in talking to some one who does not see

light and after reading your papers,
give them to someone who does not take
reform papers. Use all your spare
