its sanction to views here expressed. The
woIaen are no more likely to be unit
in favor of the issuing of all money by

if they give any intelligent study to the
question. nor arc they likely to line up

We should say that the Introduction Oh
these questions would project into the as

the union is interested are still SO far
from accomplishment that they will fur

many years to como and the only result
Of dabbling with those purely economic
questions will be the expenditure OF

Heretofore. the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union has confined it's at
tention to questions in which the moral
element was promins nt and purely
economic matters have not been regarded
as within its province. The question of
the suffrage might be looked upon as an
exception, but even here the exception is
more apparent than real, for the chief
ground Of advocacy Of the extension
Of the suffrage by the union has been
that it would tend to hasten certain de-
sirable moral reforms. But the address
Of Miss Willard at the annual convent on

el as purely economic questions or ques-
items Of expediency. For instance we
find her recommending to the goodwill
of the White Ribboners the basis of union
agreed upon by certain reform" forces
which contains such propositions as these ::
Direct legislation; the initiative and
the referendum in national, State and
local matters; the imperative mandate
and proportional representation.
The election of President ard Vice
President and OF United States Senators

all civil officers, so far as practicable.

These propositions arc very remotely,
if at all, connected with moral questions

ment, yet it does indicate that they have
made favorable impression upon her
Concerning the propriety of the union S

which claims to speak with authority,
says that President Harrison expressed
neither approval nor disapproval OF the
Mckinley bill when that measure was
submitted to him. ''No feature of the
law,'' it continues, SO far as those who
complied it are aware, represented his
particular view or met with his specific
disapproval. Repeatedly, President Har-
rison, when asked by those drafting the
bill, what he thought of it, stated that
the details should be left to those in
charge of the measure: that they were
responsible to the people, and were most
familiar with the subjects in hand" That
seems to be sufficient answer to the
recent statement of some of Mr.. Harri-
sons friends that he was opposed to the
Mckinley bill and predicted when it was
passed that it would work injury to the
party.

LEEDS ( PENNINGTON
R. r. GO.
First Mortgage 6 per cent Bonds.
DUE JULYI, 1896.

We have bought $633,000 Maine
Central Consol. As, due 1912, and
offers the holders of Leeds and Far
mington 6's, the opportunity to ex-
change the same for the former on
the following favorable terms.
On or before Nov. 10Th, 1895, we
will deliver Maine Central Consol. as
at par, and prepay the interest due
April 1st, 1896, at 4 per cent per an
mum for the unexpired time, receiv-
ing in exchange an equal number of
Leeds and Harrington bonds, allow
ing par and 6 per cent accrued in
terest to date of exchange.
The above is equivalent to selling
the Leeds & Pennington bonds on a
3 7-S per cent interest basis, and OBJ
tanning the long consolidated As at
par, by using the premium obtained
on the former in purchasing the As.
We beg to call attention to the
fact that these 4 per cent bonds are
now practically a first mortgage on
the road, as there will be only ST.
253,300 outstanding when the
Leeds & Pennington are converted
out of a total of $4,000, 900, to take
the place Of prior lien bonds; in five
years this balance will have been re-
tired and the consolidated mortgage
become first lien.
The saving in the interest charges
in the next few years is approx
mately $4,000; this is in addition to
amount saved in 1894 of $4,000,
making total OF nearly 100000 or
2 per cent on the stock; increasing
the present net earnings to over
100000 or 10 per cent. on the capt.
tai; 6 per cent. is now paid, the bal
ance going to surplus und improve
ments.
We recommend the proposed ex-
change at this time, the holders
thereby obtaining long, choice Sc
curity at moderate cost.
The As not exchanged, as above,
will be offered to the public at an
advanced price.

The Sultan appears finally to have
agreed to the reforms il Armenia de-
handed by the Powers, but it appears
probable that his reluctance and procras-
tination have drawn from the latter
some abatement of their original de-
mands, so that he has made something
out of his delay. Probably the settlement
of the matter is great relief to the Pow
ers as we'll as to the Sultan, for to have
had to resort to force would have precipi-

in the end be beaten, they would have
