Senator Vest has given out q state
ment Of his views on the silver question.
In the main he represents the opinions Of
his constituency. Missouri Democrats
do not need any appeal on the subject of
the gold standard. They are opposed to
it, aud will remain opposed until silver
enters with equal rights into the coinage
Of the nation. Though they do not need
a stimulus. il is a good thing to have oc-
casionally from q master OF forcible
rhetoric like Senator Vest, o representa-
tive expression of their deep-rooted dis
like Of q monometallic standard and oil
unnecessary bond issues ;r time of peace.
Upon the question of Q convention the
Senator takes the Democratic position
that if the masses OF the party desire to
call together delegates for any purpose
there should be no hesitation on the part
Of the central organization in obeying
the will Of the voters. st. Louis Re

Gradually the world is cleansing itself
| Of the ides that there is anything shock
ing about the legs Of . woman. Custom
has done much TO e~nslave woman and
custom has for years prevented woman
from showing one Of the most beautiful
features Of her general makeup.
Over q quarter Of = century ago the
Empress Eagenie Of France, noted for
her pretty Spanish foot and ankle to
! match, wore short dresses that her sub
jecss might occasionally get . glimpse Of
one Of the most fetching things about
her. The grateful Parisians appreciated
this courtesy and worshiped the Empress.
But one day she called on the Emperor
| Of Germany and the old commander re-
buked the Empress Of the French for
showing her ankles, by reading his wife
a lecture on the improperly Of it in the
presence OF Eugene.
But times have changed. A New
York manager turned loose the Black
Crook and treated the public to q
sight Of q hundred beauties on one stage
dressed in feshlings from hip TO heel,
New York was positively shocked, but
recovered in time to applaud and demand
the rise Of the curtain again.
Now the bicycle has come into fashion
and in all the cities of the Union pro-
gressive women have adopted the bloomei
costume. II has come TO stay. AT first
men stared at the shapely calves treadini
the silent wheel fash by, but no one turn
= head TO look again. Here and Their
some crank has tried to legislate sgains'
these becoming fashions. but Legislation
will never prevent women from dressing
as they please. The new woman is as
sorting herself in spite of all the fus
made over the fact that women hav,
legs.
A lot Of cranks serving as CoupcilmeI

The following is an extract from the
London correspondence Of the New York
Engineering and Mining Journal under
date of London. June 5:
There has been lately much buying Of
Richmond Consolidated, the quotations
in which has suddenly shot up from a.
Cd TO fI IS. This rise took place with
out the general public knowing the cause
and it was taken to mesn that the COM
a had II last secured . new property
somewhere in the gold fields OF the
United States. 1t turns cut, however,
that the company has turned it's stten-
ton to West Australia. owing to its ina
bility after continued attempts and indie
pendent trials to find q suitable property
in the United States. IL appears that
the company has been offered Q group OF
five mining leases in the Coolgardie Dis
trict, but as the available funds were not
sufficient to secure all one lease has been
D0ugnt anu tue stipuiasAoo Tvs
made that q new company is to buy the
four remaining ones. This company is
called the Mount Rowe Consolidated
Mining Company, and the shareholders
in the Richmond Company are to have
the first offer Of subscribing for it's
shares. The reports on these mining
properties are most favorable. This de-
sertion Of the United States by the Rich
mond Company only accentuates the re-
marks which / made in my report last
week to the effect that the time has gone
by for English capital to find its way
into American mines. In the case OF the
Richmond Company quite a hundred
properties were investigated before
America was abandoned. Most Of the
mines turned put on independent exam
nation to be valueless, and for the re-
mainder which were worth taking th'
purchase considerations were too high.

When the Belmont-Mo syndicate
negotiated for the $50, 400, 900 bond issue
they agreed that half the gold to be paid
for the bonds should be imported from
abroad. New York dispatches state that
the Government (which means Cleveland
and Csrlisle) have made the bond syndi.
cate concessions by which they are re-
lieved from further trouble and expense
attending the importation Of foreign
gold. This leaves about Sl5 5000, 600 in
