Gently addressed the following com
Inunication to the New York Times:
A man having an estate valued ct
$4,000 died. He left surviving him
awife, who was about to become d
mother. II sh. should have "a boy,
she was to get ope-third of the estate
and the boy two-thirds If she
should have girl, the woman was to
get two.thirds and the girl one third.
Now, she had twins-a boy and girl.

There are 100000 people in the
United States. The Cleveland Ad-
ministration has almost completely y
broken up their manufacturing indus
tries. Where they ars not broken
up, the manufacturers have boon
compelled to run their works at the
rates of European manufacturing es-
adjustments and that means reGuc-
tion Of wages, reduction in prices of
raw material and drop in the price
Of everything. Now if the country
continued 10 work under Republican
tariff, things would be different. The
100000 people would be at work
making their own goods and wares
instead of getting them from Europe,
prices OF everything would be better,
and the people would be prosperous.
THE Christians everywhere are
Mortified over tbs cruelties that the
Turks are inflicting npon Christians
in Armenia. The rule OF the Turk
would have been completely broken
years ego, if Christian England had
not int-rfered every time that Christ
ian Russia attempted to break the
power Of the Turk. SO then the in.
solent power of the Turk has been
supported by certain Christians for
the purpose of keeping other Christ
ians from extending the lines of their
dominion and influence in that part
of the world. The Turk would nat
urally have no respect for Christians
after such sample of double-deal-
ing. If Christian Russia had not
b.. n interfered with by Christian
England, the Turks would have long
since been subdued, and the recent
Wholesale murder of Christians in
Armenia would not have taken place.
Such q state OF affairs novsr before
existed at Washington IS when Con-
gross convened, and for ten days
thereafter. Tho President went
duck shooting and his Secretary of
the Treasury, Mr.. Carlisle. did not
send in the customary financial state
ment of ths affairs of the country.
After the President has como home
from his duck shooting trip; has tax
en- pinch Of snuff, and snsezed, it is
presumed he and the Secretary will
condsscsnd to send to Congress-, a
financial statement Of the financial af.
fairs Of the Government. OF what
moment is it to the President, that
tbs Government under his Adr,!uis
tration, has gons into debt over +
hundred million dollars with nothing
to show for it, OF what moment to
him is it, that the business Of the
country has been SO run down that
there is 10 profit in it. He can shoot
ducks on bis $4,000 a year salary,
and the suffering business can wait
till he returns, for bis statement of
the financial affairs of the Government.
