THE comrades and the people can re-
ioice over the election of Capt. J. G.
Burrows as Senator from Michigan. He
was a good soldier, and severely wound
ed at Antietam. He has been a Jealous
and consistent friend of the veterans
during his 16 years of service in the
House of Representatives. He is one
of the best-equipped men for the public
service in the country. He has few, if
any, superiors as parliamcntarian, has
a most thorough and accurate knowl-
edge of public business, is patriotic and
American in every instinct, and is an
eloquent and convincing orator.

ORR COMRADES IN NEBRASKA.


Comrades, do not forget our needy
comrades in Nebraska. The drouth has
left those in the western part of the State
in frightful restitution. They lack
everything that will support life and
bring ordinary comforts. Their case
demands immediate relief. Unless some
thing is done at once, thousands of our
comrades who went to that far Western
country to open it up to civilization, and
their wives and little ones, must suffer all
the horrors of Andersonville. Let not
this be. They can be carried through
the Winter in tolerable comfort at least,
if we will all give little. Everybody
can spare something for so meritorious a
cause. Send them money, provisions,
clothing-either new or that which has
been worn-anything that men, women
and children need for life and comfort.
All contributions can be sent to Col.
Church Howe, Commander of the De-
partment of Nebraska, GAR, Howe,
Neb. Or they may be sent to The Ma
TIoNAL TRIBUNE, Washington, D. c.,
and we will acknowledge and forward
them. But act at once. If you cannot
send but 10 cents send that. 1t will do
some one more good than 81 would do
in the East.

AT last it has been proposed to in
crease the revenue by putting an adj
ditional tax of 81 a barrel on beer.
Wilson feared to do this, lest it lose the
party the support of the powerful brew
ers, who are all ardent "TariR Reform
ers." As there are 3O,O0O,000 barrels
of beer drunk in this country every
year, the proposed addition would en-
rich the Treasury by s3O,000,oO0 an
nuaIIy. But it would diminish the
profits of the brewers that much, and
therefore it was not done. AT present
beer pays a tax of less than 20 per cent.
upon its value, where whisky pays over
100 per cent. IF we are going to lay
the burden of our taxation upon our
own people instead of foreigners, the
sensible way is to increase the proper
ton on beer. Even then it would
hardly be on our own people, since most
of the breweries are owned by English
syndicates.. The better way is to return
to the Mckinley way of getting most of
tho revenue from custom-houses, thus
incidentally protecting our own citizens,
and making foreigners bear as much as
possible of the burden of taxation.

Important to Advertisers.

An agent OF the proprietoIs Of an article
which they were preparing to get before the
public recently canvassed the matter of the
re ative circulation of the local papers in
counties which have in Montpelier their
natural commercial center. The WATCH
MAN was found to be the leader and in
many cases, TO have a very great preponder-
ancr of circulation. This was not news to
the publishers Of this paper but it was
very gratifying confirmation of the facts as
they have inv 4rlaby aed them to adver.
tsers. The houses in and out Of Vermont
who have used the advertising columns of
the WATCHMAN understand its value as
medium OF reaching large and thrifty class
oj people who buy goods and pay for them.
These facts are commended to the attention
of advertisers in general.

The free silver craze like a storm ragged fiercely for a time, but the wind nit has snent it's force, and in the calm which fol- lowed the people have studied the other side of the financial question, and convinced themselves that the policy of President Cleveland is so absolutely sound and safe that any departure from it will bring on d panic and wreck the business of the country. It is safe to predict that before the Presidential campaign be- gins the free silver agitation will have been forgotten, and the two great political parties will go into battle pledged to other issues.

The Poetry of Matrimony.

Her constant aim is to be inter- esting to her husband. She multi plies herself. In turn she is his friend, his confidant, his partner in business, his chum, and. if I may use the word in it's best and most refined sense. his mistress. She is forever changing her appearance. For instance you will never see a French married woman wear her hair ill the same way longer than three or four weeks. She knows that love feeds on trifies, on illusion, on suggestions. She knows that, when a man loves his wife, rose in her hair, a new frock, d bonnet diff ferently trimmed. will revive i'll him the very emotion that he felt when he held her in his arms for the first time, She knows also that the very lest dishes may sometimes become unsipid if always served with the same sauce By MAX O'RELI. in North American Review.

THE PASSING OF
 THE SILVER CRAZE
New Orleans States.


 Sound money won a decisive vic tory in the farmers National Con gress which is now in session at At lanta. Yesterday a resolution was introduced committing the congress to free coinage of silver at a ratio not to exceed b to l, but it was de- feated by vote of 251 to 104, the North, South and East voting unan- imously against it. The silver States of the West were the only ones that supported the resolution, and this shows quite clearly that the silver movement, as Secretary Car lisle said in his Boston speech, has lost it's momentum, and will soon be thing of the past For the past three months the silver men have been rapidly losing ground, and in many of their organs the rampant Is to l editorials no longer appear, which is very good evidence that the leaders of the silverites are get ting discouraged.
