IT is trihe amusing to observe how
some of the republican sheets here in
the West are endeavoring to lay the
fault of the bond issue on the new tar.
i'll law. 1t will be remembered that
the irst issue was made while the Nc
Kinley law was in force. hence their
ar9ament must fall fiat and die where
1t originated. 1t is useless for them
TO try for a moment to disguise the
facts. Every one endowed with the
least amount of common sence knows
that the issuing of interest bearing
bonds is simply the fruits of the
characterization of silver and subse
quent contraction of the circulating
medium. Give us a good monetar,
system, free coinage of silver and an
expansion of the money volume and
you will then see what little effect the
tariff has on the country. We don't
believe there is sane man IN Kansas
who believes that the present tariff law
is in any way responsible for the finan.
cial embarrassment of the nation and
its people.

I'm the Galabat Market.
On the route to Khartoum is Galabat
famous as the great slave market Of the
Eastern Soudan- 1t Is here, says the Phila-
oeiph1a The that the Soudanese in their
slave-catching expeditions against the hated
Christians OF the highlands, bring their
trains of beautiful Abyssinian girls and
sell them to dealers, who make business
Of supplying the harems of Khartoum, Kas-
sala and Mecca. Only two or three tray
GERS have been able TO describe the busy
and Piteous spectacle in the slave booths of
Galabat. which is all the more interesting
and deplorable because the victims are
girls, torn from their mountains to live
ike Gagged birds behind the lattices of har-
ems from the Nile 70 Mecca They are as
highly priced by the lords Of the harem as
the famous beauties of Circassia. DIR Jun
ker, in the book of travels he is now pub
fishing. tells of the beauty Of many OF these
maidens and adorns his volume with well
executed engIavings of some of them.
Even while the Soudan was under
Egyptian control the harem traffic at Gal.
abat thrived, and we can easily imagine
that since this last disastrous war the town
has been in the heydey OF its prosperity.
Ar. ID. Cosson, who visited GaIabat some
years ago, said that the merchants sat
smoking beside the booths that concealed
their slaves from public view. When Gus
toners appeared piece of cotton cloth was
thrown over the head of each girl, which
concealed her features until it was her turn
to be inspected. .'Many of these young
girls" he wrote, s.are beautiful. Their
color Is often no darker titan that OF q
Spanish gypsy, their features are small and
delicate, their form proportioned like q
Greek statue, and their eyes large aud lus-

HUMsLING A MoouL.

Forty Determined the.
SouPists Win . Great Victory.
The autocrat OF the seaside resort Is not
the man with his millions, but the hotel
cook. The clerk in the office may imagine
that he owns most of the earth, and the
head waiter may feel that he has a war
rAnty deed of the remainder, but when YOU
come right down to facts the boss of the
kitchen is the boss of the ranch. He is the
unseen power behind the throne to which all
bow.
At our hotel the soup had invariably been
seasoned so high with cayenne pepper that
not one out OF ten could more than taste it,
says writer in the Detroit FreesPress.
The same was true of the deviled CLANS.
One day made kick, and in five minutes
had half dozen guests with me. We
interviewed the landlord and his reply was:
"lhave nothing to say about It You
must go to the chief cook"
Wesought an interview with that mag
nate. He was colored man with the
dignity OF Roman Senator. We made our
complain, and he replied:
II season dat soup an dem clans to suit
my taste"
'But it doesn't suit ours"
"Can't help dat, sab"
I'VE want less pepper"
''Cbn nelp oat,"
do you refuse to make changer"
~ sartinly do, sab. lows nobody to tell
me what to do.'
We returned to the verandah and went
into convention. Every minute added to
our numerical strength, and in quarter of
an hour we numbered forty men. Then it
was unanimously
RESOLVED, That if the cook refuses to use
less pepper we seek some other hotel"
Delegates were appointed to wait on the
landlord, and he replied:
"Gentlemen, am sorry, but dare not
interfere"
Forty rooms were vacated, forty trunks
packed and then mine host wilted. He
called in the cook, and, though that individ.
ual attempted to stand on his dignity, he
had to wilt. By this time the excitement
was intense, and had the forty gone they
would have been followed by hundred
more. LESS pepper was the watch
word all over the house, and it meant a
great deal to the landlord. We kicked, we
saw, we conquered, and the next soup and
clans exactly suited the popular taste, The
cook Is still the unseen power behind the
throne, but he has skipped cog and no one
il afraid Of him any longer.

A very A~tonlsned Musician.

One adventure Of dead Botcesinis should
be remembered. He was playing one night
at Antwerp, and there was a full room, and
considerable curiosity for his turn to begin.
He took his place beside his colossal double
bass and commenced his variations. The
pubic were eleotritied and so was the
player. Noone who KIN WIS the double bass
could say Of the instrument that it was
s1ueaky and shiieky. 1t has it's faults. but
at least shrillness is not one of them. The
sounds came forth that evening piercing
and pathetic. The player looked terrified;
his instrument seemed bewitched and the
sounds continued even when the bow was
not drawn across the strings. For mo-
ment BoIteslaI falte.ed. and then plum ging
his hand into the internal cavities OF his big
instrument, he drew it back very hurriedly.
He introduced it again very carefully and
took out and held up 10 the room cat The
entertainment did not end the -e, There were
kittens 10 fellow.

IN Rush county some republicans be

Hon. C. W. Fulton, of Astoria, is a

material chair is the honest, manly, dig
nified and sensible way in which he
would discharge his duties He certain
ly is no victim of caprices that so ma
terially affect the welfare of the state
when found governing its affairs, and
he does not possess in the least degree
the characteristics of political manip-
ulator or demagogue. We want Mr..
Fulton to lead In the race, and then
every citizen will be assured that the
great superstructure of freedom, free
men and protection for Americans and
American Industries has a cornerstone
of the staunchest material. In the

ceive the largest majority of any man
In this state. 1t is certainly not In any
spirit of sel6shness that we press this
claim, for we should not expect nor re-
ceive the slightest favor from his posi-
ton, but II is men and not ambition of
men that we want for offices. and Mr.
Fulton Is the man so far as we have

CROSSING THE ATLANTIC

Usually involves sea sickness. When
the waves play pitch and toss with you,
strong indeed must be the stomach that
can stand it without revolving. Tour
lists, commercial travellers, yachtsmen,
mariners, all testify that Hostetter' $
Stomach Bitters is the best remedy FOR
the nausea experienced in rough wealth
er on the water. Nervous and weakly
travellers by land often suffer from
something akin to this, and find in the
Bitters its surest remedy No disorder
of the stomach, liver or bowels is so OBJ
stinate that 1t may not be overcome by
the prompt and thorough remedy
Equally efIicacious is it for chills and
fever kidney and rheumatic trouble and
nervousness. Emigrants to the frontier
should provide themselves with this fine
medicinal safeguard against the effects
Of vicissltudes Of climate, hardship, eX'
posure and fatigue.
