to issue money not only to the priv

BY loaning money to all who can
furnish security at cost of issue, no

Close, all over patterns upon an

Rainbow brocades, with a peau

Marbled agate and chene zig gzags,

Moires in novel effects are used

moire, strewn with long stemmed
roses, is an elegant evening fabric.
White and cream taffetas are
strewn with tiny flowerets, resemhl=
ing those one sees on services OF
Dresden china. Rosebuds of pale
pink or yellow are one of the
prettiest designs.
The soft and transparent Chinese
grapes in black embroidered in gold
are effectively used for bodices and
skirt draperies; the embroidery is
executed in the struggling patterns
familiar in Chinese work.
All over patterened silks in a
small reticulated OF lace like figure

A grass green silk shows radiat-

SUCH FLUFFY FRIPPERIES.
No Gown Complete Unless at the
Throat There Are PuffS and RuffS,
Bows, &c.

There has never been a time when
the rage for garnitures was so wide
spread as now. Why, the other
details of a 1rOck sink into insight
ficance when the Partisan mOdiste
sets her wits to work to devise new
and original trimmings for the
throat of a waist. Every swell
gown you see nowadays carries the
eye to one point of prettiness-the
neck! Here there are lavished
delicate gauze, chiffon, silk, velvet,
crepe or lace conceits, which look
very lovely and very simple, but
which in reality require a skillful
touch in the making.
1t doesn't matter what style your
dress is; whether it is designed for
house, street or ball room wear.
Some sort of quaint neck garniture
it must have OF it will not be voted
chic.
Ties, crayats, stocks, collarettes,
scarfs, "Sans -Gene' bows, "pom
pom" bows and a host of fluffy,
frivolouslooking fancies aredevelop-
ed in airy fabrics and spangled
gauzes, with buckles, jeweled bars
and single stones for ornaments.
Great big chiffon chouX are
tackled on either side of the high
stock; accordion pleated chiffon is
made up into foamy bows and
edged with the filmiest lace; queer
puffs and bows and frills are perch
ed upon the collar of q gown, and
when the bodice is decollete the
fair throat of the wearer is twisted
about with a soft fold of gauze, tied
in darling bow at the left side and
centered with a rhinestone bar.

Testimony for Silver.

Representative Hartman, of Mon
tana, has presented in the House
the resolutions considered and
adopted by the most powerful labor
organization in America. They
bear the official signatures of j. r.
Sovereign, grand master workman,
and John w. Hayes, secretary and
treasurer of the Knights of Labor :;
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation OF Labor
Marion Butler, president of the
National Farmers Alliance Henry
H. Trenor, president, and P. J.
Mcclure, secretary Of the Brother
hood of Carpenters and Joiners p.
M. Arthur, chief of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers G.
A. Robinson, president of the
Farmers Mutual Benefit Associa-
ton; Frank Sargent, grand master
workman, and F. w. Arnold, sec,
retary and treasurer of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen, and
John Mcbride, president of the
United Mine Workers of America.
The address declares that
In view of the general distress at time
when granaries are full, and i'll the nat
ural order of things producers and toilers
should be enjoying the fruits of their
labors, it seems that the time has come
for united action on the part of those
who create the wealth of the country.
Continuing it says that the pres
ent conditions of commercial and
industrial stagnation and the gen
eral distress under which the coun-
try is laboring are brought about
by:
The departure from the wise bi1netalism
financial principles of Washington, JEFF
ferson and Hamilton, and the substitution
of the monometallic policy dictated by
the European money-holders and their
American allies.
The ringing resolutions which
accompany the eloquent address
close with this declaration
We demand of the present Congress the
immediate return to the money of the
Constitution as established by our fathers,
by restoring the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at the present ratio of Is to I,
the coin of both metals to be equally full
legal tender for all debt, public and pri-
vate, as before the fraudulent demonetiza-
ton of silver in 1873. We also condemn
the increase of the national debt i'll time
of peace, and the issue of interest bearing
bonds at any time.
The organizations that have given
official utterance to their views
comprise, at the very lowest esti-
mate, as Mr.. Hartman says, 1,500-
600 American citizens and voters.
1t is united demand for political
action but there is only one polit.
ical party which voices that demand
in its platform, We ask then,
how should the signers of this dec
laration vote? 1t may not be out
of place to add that eight of the
eleven have publicly declared
which political path they will tread
this fall.-Bpoekton Diamond.

the Richards Lock Nut, which is al
ordinary hexagon nut constructed SO
that it is impossible for the nut to
become loose or slack. and fall off the

ordinary cold pressed iron nut and
dispenses with the use of the lock

nut is now exclusively used on all
the principal railroads and street

Agent for the Siphon Water
Elevator, which is automatic, for
irrigation, city supply, farms, etc.
This invention as it's name indicates
is based upon the principle of the
siphon known to the Ancients but
it is devised in such manner as to
greatly enlarge the field of applica-
ton. Used until today only for the
drawing off of liquids to lower level,
the siphon now becomes an
Water Elevator, which
under favorable conditions Is en-
lowed with great powers. In many
instances, land situated higher than
the irrigation ditch can be irrigated
at nominal expense. The Siphon
Elevator is especially adapted for
such conditions, as it can elevate the
water from the main irrigation ditch
20 a higher one, while the waste is
available for irrigating the lower
evels. The siphon elevators are
made of brass and iron in sizes
.anging in capacity Of from two
hundred to three million gallons per
lay.

I'd for new machinery and repairs.
