taught to take a little mixed oat and
linseed meal from the hand, and in

AN INCAPABLE PARTY.

1ncompetency OF tho Republicans -
Shown by the Harrison Aduninastration.
The receipts of the government from
all sources for the fiscal year ending
June 8. 1894, were 1920, 900. $3.50, and tho
expenditures, $500, sos, $50. This shows
q deficit Of 500, 633 ,O23. The dull times
had much to do with the discrepancy,
but the important fact to be consid-
cred in rela ton to it is the inadequacy
Of the existing revenue laws. When
the Mckinley bill was passed it was
the boast of it's friends that an in
crease of the revenue would be the re-
suit. 1t increased the taxes, but ma
terially reduced The revenues, and the
consequence is the deficit.
That this is true may be proved BY
the records. There has been no defal-
cation on the part of any Of the COL
Letting agencies. No complaint comes
of a lack of zeal in the collections. No
money collected has been withheld
from the treasury. The plain infer
ence, therefore, is that the law is de-
fcctive, and the obvious remedy is in
the change of the statutes. It will not
do to rely on withholding payments,
as the Harrison administration did
during the closing months, or to issue
bonds now and then as the present ad-
ministration was obliged to do once.
The laws must be adjusted on such q
basis as will meet the conditions.
No better evidence could be pre-
sented of the incompetency of the re.
publican party to administer the gov
eminent than the present condition Of
the finances under the laws passed by
that party. 1t will be claimed, no
doubt, that during and for many years
after the war, that party displayed its
capability. But that was before the
control of the party passed from the
great men who organized it into the
hands Of the boodfers who now direct
its affairs. 1t is neither unfair nor I'M
just to say that now there isn't a man
in the leadership of that party sufi-
GENTLY equipped in craftsmanship to
frame a revenue law that would serve
the purpose of bringing the receipts
and expenditures of the government
anywhere nearly together.-Kansas

FEEDING BY MACHINERY.

Simple Combination of an Alarm clock
and a Few Batteries.
An electric horse feede, is ne " in
ventlon brought out by Mr.. Alderson,
of Chesterfield, for securing the regu-
lar feeding of horses during the alb
sence from any cause of the stableman
or groom. The apparatus is described
as being very simple, the law of CRAWL
tation being depended upon to accom-
plish most of the work. The first
requisite is an alarm clock, which
should be good enough not to stop
casually, but need not be expensive.
The electrical plant is that needed for
an ordinary electric bell, four cells of
the Leclanche type of battery being
sufficient for any distance up to two
hundred yards. The third portion of
the apparatus is the feeder-that is to
say, the vessel holding the corn or corn
and char, as the case may be. The
clock, which is the prime mover of the
whole concern, may be in the house,
the harness-room or anywhere, but if
it be more than two hundred yards
away from the feeder a more powerful
battery will be required.
To use the feeder the first thing is
to set the alarm of the clock at the
hour at which it is desired that the
horse should be fed. The food is then
placed in a Unlike biscuit box, which
Is turned upside down and placed in
the proper compartment of the shoot,
when the lid of the box is drawn out,
the corn then resting upon the floor OF
4 trap-ike arrangement. held in its
place by a simple continuance. When
and the circuit is completed. a weight
falls. the bottom of the feed box is re-
leased. and the corn falls out into the
manRer.

that the presidential nominal ton

1t is no new or extraordinary
thing for congress to extend the appro-

up with the consideration of the tariff
bill, and properly So The protest Of

What Could Do 1t.

TO wound mans pride has often
been found to be the most dangerous
thing one can do. The feeling of the
greater part of humanity is represented
by the reply of a Gascon officer to
Charles VII, who asked If anything
could detach him from the kings
service. "No, sire-not even the offer
of three kingdoms like yours; but, yes,
sire-one single affront." = Youths

BLACK PERSIAN.

Persian Lamb is fashionable. The best is
dressed and dyed in Germany Neither Eng.
land France nor America can dye Persian
skins well Americans, however, have at.
tempted to dye Persian skins. but up to date
have not been successful. The skins lack the
beautiful gloss OF the German dyed, and the
melt is dressed in such a manner that the dye
makes II brittle: consequently they will rot
wear more than two or three seasons. whereas
garments made of the German-dycd Persian
skins will wear from six to eight years and al
WAYS retain their pristine beauty. There are
great many garments manufactured from
American-dyed Persian skins and offered in
this market. They can be purchased at about
one-half the cost of the genuine Leipsc dyed.
I do not sell them. ! only sell furs which are
dressed and dyed prope~.y. Have large stock
of German-dyed Persian Lamb Skins which
were purchased last summer during the panic
at low prices. They have been made into
stylish coats. capes, muffs, &c. and will be
