THERE is the succulent peanut.
Maybe you think it doesn't play a
large part on the industrial stage,
but if you do, you are mistaken.
The yearly production of peanuts in
this country is about $4,000 900
pounds. Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee
and North Carolina harvesting the
most in the order named. But, after
all. the American crop of peanuts is
small compared with that of Africa,
which in 1892 shipped 400 900, 900
pounds of peanuts to Europe.

REV. DIR. lansing, of Salem, Mass

is evidently striving for recognition
rs the second Burchard. He is as
much of q blatant ass. and his sour
rilous attack on the president is as
unworthy Of the cloth as was the
famous Burchard utterance about
democracy being the party Of rum,
Romanism and rebellion. that of a
demagogue and a crank. The denun-
citation which is coming down on DR..
Lansing's head now from all sections
is the best evidence of the way such
sentiments are received in n country
that harbors no love for fanatics.
slanderers and falsifiers. who even
go so far as to attack the president
Of the nation simply because he diff
fers politically from them. Perhaps
DR.. Chauncey NJ. Depew voices the
public sentiment best when he says:
There is only one reply that can be
made to such q story-it is abso-
lutely contemplate and absurd. At
the Chamber of Commerce dinner
sat near Mr.. Cleveland. l saw him

he went away. 1 can saw that he
was absolutely sober and in full com.
mand OF his faculties. He conducted
himself in = way the world at large
would expect from the president oi

since published by DR.. Lansing is 8
strong illustration Of how often these
fanatics condemn without knowing
what they are saying.

The Question.

The call for democratic state con-
vention to be held at Springfield
June to declare for free silver is
righteously regarded by many dem
ocrats somewhat premature. There
is neither q national nor a state cam
paign this year. and the action of
the democracy of Illinois. whichever
way it declares, would not necessar-
lily be of binding force in either case.

force is recognized by the highest

that they would escape their portion
of the burden, must now put up, so

The bulletin of the American Iron

1t is understood that the judges of the
court OF common pleas of Philadelphia
have concluded to wear black silk gowns
and close on the heels of that announce
ment comes the intimation that the Judges
of the Philadelphia court of quarter ses-
sions will probably decide to wear scarlet
gowns. Accompanying these two deeply
interesting statements is the probability
that an effort will soon be made to have
members OF the Philadelphia bar wear
gowns also. Foundation for the gossip Is
in an interview with Judge Breezy, who
says:
II was ore of the starters of the agita-

Washingtonians who have in their employ
men who are members of the District Ma
uonal Guard are, it is understood, behav-
ing liberally in the matter of granting
leave to those employees. SO that they may
attend the brigade encampment which COM
mences at Fort Washington next Thursday
and continues for ten days. In only few
instances have insuperable difficulties been
thrown in the way of the soldiers. The
District of Columbia is unquestionably
proud of its troops. and it is not at all
likely that those business and professional
men who are broad enough to recognize in
the duty to be done at Fort Washington a

be of great value. will suffer because of
their lberality.
