Gloves at Scots. would last until Sat-
urday evening, at 10 o'clock.
We had 66O pair and thought we

yesterday morning at $50, and up to
6 o'clock when we closed, we sold at
retail for cash COZ pair.
The So pair that are left will be on
sale to-day, and the sale can only last

This explanation is to prevent any
misunderstanding that might arise from
our not continuing the sale until

LARGEST WEEKLY TOTAL
this year, since he middle of January.
The total in the week a year ago was
2, 9O9, 900 bushels. The total exports Oh
Indian corn from both coasts OF tne
United States this week are 1891, ooo
bushel, so per cent more than last week,
and the largest weekly total exports OF
Indian corn since the third week OF
April, 1894
are reported throughout the United
States this week compared with $50 IN
the week year ago. The increase IN the
number of failures this week over last,
is more than accounted for by the

"Repub!!Can. Extravagance."

Ex-Secretary Whitney's ASSET
ton that President Cleveland will
be ''bulwark against Republican,
extravaganza in Congress- is not
quite up to the Whitney level in
point of sense. There are two or
three egood reasons, apart altogether
from Cleteland's connection with
legislation, why the Republicans
could not be cxtravagant in Con
gress even if they wanted to. be.
The first one is, they are not in
control of Congress. They lack
thus far two or three votes of
majority in the Senate. If the Re-
publicans get the seat vacated by
Higgins, of Delaware, to which
Dupont, their candidate, lays claim,
and they probably will, they will
have forty-three members in the
Senate, or one less than half of that
body with the present number of
States. If Utah, when she is adj
mitted, chooses two Republican
Senators, the Republicans will have
Just half the Senate and the Dem
ocrats and Popuiists the other half,
while the Democratic Vice Presi-
dent, of course, would throw his
casting vote on the Democratic
side in tie on a partisan question.
Another reason why the Repub-
licans could not be cxtravagant is
that there is nothing to be cxtrava-
giant with. Governmental income
steadily falls short Of outgo. Tie
surpluses promised by the Treas
ury officials always turn out to be
Edefcits. Thepresent expenditures,
which are authorized by a Dem
ocratic Congress, and which presum-
ably, are at as low a line as they
could be put, unless some OF the
Government function were sus-
pended, are unable to get down fal
enough to meet the receipts.
Three times since the present Ad-
ministration came into power the
Government has been compelled te
borrow money to meet its current
obligations. This is the first time
since the war debt was put in man
{ ageable shape quarter Of cen
tury ago by the Republicans, that
Che Government has had to borrow

money to pay its running expenses.
There is chance, too, that more
borrowing may have to be done
before the present Congress gets
fairly at work.
Uncle Sam, that is to say, for
the past two years has been in a
worse position to stand any extrav-
agance than he was in at any time
before since shortly after the war
ended. That would be bold, bad
party, indeed, which would add any
thing to his burdens in his present
condition. The Republicans will
certainly. not attempt to do this.
The Republican plan is to change
deficits into surpluses. They did
this a few years after the war
closed and they kept up the sur
pluses until near the end of their
sway. Their first work in 1897,
after they regain power, will be to
abolish the deficits, if the deficits
continue to that time. On a few
occasions in the past when they
ran the Government the Republi-
cans We're charged with cxtrava-
gance, but it was when the Treasury
was overtiowing with cash. For
political and physical reasons they
can easily repel an accusation Of
that sort at the present time.

GOLD will continue to flow out
of the country as long as the free
silver agitation is kept up.

THE people of Fulton, Mo-,
lynched a negro rapist and murder
er one night last week, and after
wards kept the body suspended
from a telegraph pole in the centre
of the town for moral effect. The
lynching of the brute is alright; he
deserved his fate, but the moral
effect of exposing his bloated, dis
gusting carcass to the view of the
populace is somewhat obscured
by suggestion Of savagery.

1.-THE Judge of probate, the lO8ly
Democratic county officer in ,the court
house, has been ordered by the. Repub-
liean county court to vacate the office
now occupied by him in the court
house on or before the 10th day Of Sep
tember, or be Ousted by the sheriff.
The court has assigned to the Judge
the Office now occupied by Mr. Kugel,
attorney at law, and Prosecuting At
tOfney Van Allen, which is far too
small for the requirements of the Office
Of the judge of the probate court. The
order Of the court is published in full
in the proceedings of the county
court.-''1ndependent.'
ITwillbe seen from the above that
the editor of the ''Independent"
flies off the handle because our
Republican county court has made
IN order transferring the Office of
the'pDbate Judge from one room
10 another in the court house, and
in his perversity seeks to have the
wrong construction placed upon the
action of the court. The order for
thechange was made at the regular
May term of the court, and if the
arrangement did not suit the pro-
bate Judge, he had plenty of time
to enter his protest and submit his
grievance to the court for consider
alton, and We feel assured that had
he shown sufficient cause why the
change was not desirable, the or
der would have been rescinded. As
it is, he ignored the order entirely
ana it,. therefore, clearly in con-
tempt, ahd't thu court had a perfect
right in declaring him SO. We
think the application for the change
was made before our present pro-
bate Judge was appointed to the
Office by the Governor, and could
not possibly have originated in de-
sire to have him ousted out of the
Office because he is ''the only DEM
ocratic officer" in the court house.
The probate Judge has as much
right to his Office room as have any
of the other officials, but the disposi-
ton of the rooms belongs to the
ccvfe.- The ringing in of Mr..
KugeTs; 1iame is unwarranted and
is solely for effect. The order was
made long before MIR. Kugel locat
ed here or even contemplated doing
90, and he shares Mr.. Van Allen.
Office upon that gcntleman's invita-
ton, and he is, therefore, in no wis
interested in the change. We know
&at our probate judge is Mr.. Bell''
protcgc, but we will remindMr. Bel
that had it not been for the mag
nanimity of the Republicans in no
putting up = candidate last fall fo
the probate judgeship, the ''onl.
Democratic officer would not nov
be. occupying that Office. Person
ally We like Judge Eversole AM
wish him no i'll, neither do we car

Stunts Cotton Review.

New York, May 1.-The Suns cotton review says: Cotton rose 15 to IT points, the new crop months showing the most strength. Phe close was strong after sales of 213, 400 bales. New Orleans ad- vanced IA to 16 points.
 Liverpool was 1-16d higher on the spot and 2l5 points higher for future delivery, closing very steady with spot sales of 10,- 900 bales. The Manchester press dis patch reported prices firm, with an inn proved demand Cotton exchange dis patches report yarns higher, fact which checked business, and added that cloths were dull
 The signal service predicted generally warmer and fair weather in the cotton belt, with occasional showers. Bremen, Tex. reported l inch of rain; Hearn, F inch; Longview, 141, and at other points in Texas a moderate precipitation. Else where in the cotton belt the rainfall was generally light. New York Norfolk and St. Louis advanced 1-16c. New Or leans and Charleston were 1sc higher. The sales at New Orleans were 5000 bales and at New York 314. The New Orleans receipts tomorrow are estimated at 2000 against 2239 last Saturday, and 1000 last year.
 TodayS features: Almost all the news was bulliSh; Liverpool was higher, Man. chester less strong, the southern markets were rising, a reported decrease in the Texas acreage of 15 per cent attracted considerable notice and Wall street houses were buying. The market sym pathized with the stronger tone at the stock exchange, the produce exchange, the Chicago board of trade and the best state of affairs in the iron trade. A small CT crop is expected, the speculation is in creasing, the friends of cotton are grow ing more numerous and the bullish senti- ment is spreading everywhere. The ad- vance today was sharp, but many think it is only a fOretaSte of what is coming
