For the Summer Cottax%

In seeking material for refurnishing
the old or for decorating the new cot
tage there is nothing which fills the
bill SO completely as denim It comes
in shades the tones and tints of which
rival the beauty of the most expensive
art fabric. Manufacturers seemingly
have realized the great possibilities of
this durable cloth and have added to
their stocks several new weaves which
are deliberately designed in geometrical
figures or are Japanese in effect.

THE Act of Congress of March 90,
1898, provided that on the first of
July, 1895, two very important pro
visions should go into effect. One OF
these makes it unlawful after July 1st
for any interstate railway to use a
car which is not provided with
secure grabirons or handholds in the
ends and sides of each car for great
er security to men in coupling and
uncoupling cars" and the second re-
quires after July 1st the use of freight
cars which comply with the standard
hight of drawbar, which was required
to be fixed by the American Railway
Association within ninety days from
the passage of the act. The nights
of the drawbar were fixed at thirty
four and half inches for empty cars
and thirty-one and half inches foI
loaded cars. On and after January
1st, 1893, it will becomelobligatory for
all cars to be provided with automat-
ic couplers.

GOLD papers keep falsely asserting
that the free coinage of silver will
drive all the gold out of the country
and bring us to a silver basis. The
facts of history are all against this
claim as everybody knows full well.
Whenever there has been coinage of
silver in this country gold has flown
in upon us, and whenever stopped
gold has gone abroad. There was less
than 5000, 600. 900 gold all told in this
country in 1878 when the coinage Of
silver was commenced under the
Bland act, but when the law was
changed in 1890 there was over $780,
100000. Since stopping the coinage
OF silver gold has left the country SO
rapidly that great sacrifice has been
made to get it back and already the
S7O0, ,0O0, 900 has dwindled down to
about 100000, ,000 Gold men will
find that the people are studying the
financial question and are fast getting
at the truth. Cheboygan Democrat.

"The Democratic state convention will do

ina fair and intelligent manner. When sill
yer was demonitized in 1873 every Demo-

for it. Now then after the lapse of more
than twenty years what has transpired to
sanctify that crime and to justify so many
Democrats doing now just what they de-
nounced twenty years ago. My opinion is
that the state convention should reaffirm the
platforms prior to 1S73-demand the resto-
ration of silver to its constitutional preroga-
tives of that period when 1t was unit of
value. On such platform am satisfied
all Democrats could stand. Yes, am friend
