Powered taffeta ribbons and artificial
flowers galore are to be features of sum-
mer millinery.
Among the novelties in neck gear is
sable collar band, with rosettes and long
stole ends of lace on either side of the
front.
The coming summer bonnet Is to be
small. flat affair, worn we'll back on the
head, similar to the extreme evening bon
net occasionally seen at the theater.
The voluminous sleeve seems about to
be cut down in its career of expansion, for
the Princess of Wales and the Duchess of
York have declared in favor of one of
more modest proportions.
A pretty evening dress is made of white
embroidered chiffon over white satin trim
med on the skirt with three rows of lime
green velvet ribbon and on the simple full
waist with pink roses and green leaves.>>
The newest colors are blue shade of
steel called ''Valkyrie, various shades of

Railroads and Democracy.

The Railroad Gazette gives the fol-
lowing account Of the extensions Of our
railroad system in 1894:
RAILROAD building in this country
would certainly appear to have reached
its lowest ebb when the total new mile
age built in one year amounts to only
l,76l miles. That is all the new rail-
road that has been built in the United
States in 1894. That figure is lower than
any that has been reached since 1876,
when the net increase for the year was
100 miles, the amount built being
somewhat greater. The new mileage re-
ported for 1894 is apparently the small
est actual amount of new railroad built
in any year since the civil war, and it
is much the smallest percentage of in
crease Taking Poor's figures of the
amount of railroad built at the end of
1898 (l77. 75S miles), the railroad con-
structed in 1894 has added less than
per cent to that total

OUR MAIN SAFEGUARD.


Condition That Must Exist to Extend Pur-
cl,ases and Develop Trade.
With cotton at cents, and the price
dropping, southern planters are in a
state of bewilderment and CONSERVATION.
Bankruptcy and impoverishment stare
them in the face if the present rate,
which, they assert. is below the cost Of
production, be maintained. In like
manner the wheat producer sees ruin
confronting him in the continuance of
low prices for grain. The southern plant.
er and the western farmer, the two
agents who were largely instrumental
in ordering in 1892 q reversal Of the in.
dustrial and protective policies Of the
nation, are now suffering directly from
the evils of underconsumption. Manu-
featuring interests were the first TO feel
the effects of business uncertainty and
the losses of wage earners The great
agricultural producers south and west
are now learning to their cost that the
marked decline in the purchasing power
of prosperous nation reacts necessarily
upon cotton planters and wheat farmers
If cheapness of food and clothing were
the main factor of national prosperity.
Americans would now have full cause
for gratitude to Democratic tariff med
dlers, but when flour is low, and cotton
sells below the cost Of production, and
every other commodity is cheap because
the supply runs far beyond the demand,
they need not be thankful. The prac-
tical experience of the last two years
has taught Americans that, whatever
may be the truth about free trade or the
protective policy, nothing can take the
place of national prosperity under which
all classes Of the population are en-
ployed at good wages and all industries
are in full, unimpeded operation. Those
are the conditions which develop the
purchasing power of every consumer and
make the American market the main
safeguard against overproduction at
home and abroad.
