FACTS.

FACTS.
Here are some facts which you would do well
to consider Paste them in your hat:
Mr.. Leech, director of the United States
mint, in his last official table prepared for con-
gressional use, gives an itemized statement of
all the gold and silver money in the world and
here are his figures: Gold, $3,727, o18, 1869;
silver, $500, ,346; total, $7,547,59o,2I
The total gold in the world does not exceed
$2.51 per person, and the total of silver does
not exceed 81. 5S-a total of both metals of less
than IS 10 per capita.
The Rothschild syndicate alone holds bonds
enough to- call in every ounce of gold in the
world.
The total bonded indebtedness of govern
,nent organizations and of the railroad corpora
tons of the world exceeds $75, ooo, 900, 900. In
round numbers, the Understanding bonded in
debtedness of the people of the world is ten
dollars to one of both gold and silver, and
twenty dollars to one of gold.
You gold-standard fellows-you "honest-
money" chaps-tell us where we are going to
get lLC llOlSy " pay Oui uSptS JN"'
YESTERDAYS Kansas City Star contains
dispatch from Topeka which conveys the in
formation that "party lines may be wholly
dropped in Kansas for once"; that there is "a
movement well under way to make the election
of the chief justice of the supreme court next
fall entirely non-partisan." This is clever
Republican scheme, but it will not work. We
believe that the courts should be entirely free
from partisan bias, but we know that if we
should unite and elect Judge Martin, who was
recently appointed by Governor Morrill, to fill
Judge Horizons unexpired term, we would SIM
ply be helping the Republicans to fasten upon
us, not only an ardent partisan, but railroad
attorney. Judge Martin belongs to the IRE
deenner' set, else he would not have received
the appointment at the hands of E. N. Morrill,.
Moreover, he has been railroad attorney for
wears, and is just the kind of man corporations
like to see on the supreme bench, for they well
know their interests will not suffer at his hands.
We are we'll satisfied that the Populists of Kan
sas will not sanction the movement to unite on
Judge Martin, nor any one of his stripe. This
movement on the part of the Republicans is
sufficient evidence to us that they know the
people are disguised with the gang now in con-
troll of the governmental machinery of the
state, and they are satisfied that they cannot
elect their man. The cry that this is an off
year will not work. The Populists will put up
a candidate, and elect him, too.

UP in Usage county, miners and their fa'ni-
lies are starving from lack of those farm
products of which there such great over-pro-
duction. Those poor people have sent up APP
peals to Governor Morrill, for help, but he
sits in his office, clips his coupons and declares
that he don't know what to do to help them.
Years ago, when John P. ST. John was gov
error of Kansas, there was great exodus OF
colored people from the South. They crowded
into the state by thousands, and, having no
money and nothing to live on, there was much
suffering among them. When Governor St.
Tohn became aware of the condition of these
poor people, he did not rear back on his digni-
ty and say he did not know what to do for
them. Not bit of it! He just rolled up his
sleeves and went to work and FOUND WAY TO
HELP THEM. Granny Morrill, is no friend Of
the poor man; he is simply cold-blooded' self
ish aristocrat.

years ago. He bore testimony to the

make room look as if fresh thought
and care always attended it.
If you cannot find exactly what you
ike at the furniture stores, it is pos
sible and easy. now, to have chairs or
other pieces of furniture made here
with excellent results. 1t is a, good
plan, if you see an illustration of
something beautiful that you admire,
to have it reproduced. If it is built on
good principles of form and proper
tions and well-n1ade. you can have
something that will last several gen.
erations and only grow more beauti-
full with age.
No one grows tired of a thing I'M
less it is wrong in some principle of
art or is not adapted for the use it is
put to. One of the first principles of
decorative art is that an object to be
beautiful must be appropriate and
useful, and if this is not found TO be
the case, be assured the article is not
artistic.
II you use carving IN decoration
don't let it be initiative. That is bad
taste. 1t is an established principle
in the theory of design that decora-
tive art is degraded when st passes
into {. direct initiation of natural OBJ
jects. Woodworking should be treat
ed in an abstract fashion and adapt
ed TO the general design of the fur
niture.
For a person fond of working, to
make a home beautiful by his own ef-
forts, there rs nothing which repays
labor better than to learn carving. 1t
is not difficult. The tools required
cost only 81 or S., and by having a
Joiner cut out a piece of furniture,
such as a chair. and in doing the
carving himself he can have beautiful
objects at reasonable cost. Women
who have some strength and muscle
can do as good work as men. Two
or three lessons from a practical
carver. to show how ITO work the tools.
and above all, ito sharpen them, will
be necessary for good work. The art
magazines, especially the Amateur,
contain some designs and instruc-
tions nearly every month. Some are
easy, for beginners, and others are
quite elaborate. You can be sure,
also, that whatever you find in them
is in correct taste. Much time that is
spent in decorating china of question:
able beauty, would be better spent
in wood carving, because 1T is not so
easy TO go aStrtay and produce some
thing that becomes an eyeSore when
ones taste is further developed. Be
sides, it is much easier to buy lovely
china already decorated than it is to
get a good piece of carving.

The Best housekeeping.

It has been remarked that the best
housekeeping is the sort that one never
notices. and the same may be said of
furniture and decorations. In a certain
drawing-room the preponderance of
brass-and-onyx stands at once attracts
the attention of the caller, who feels an
Irresistible impulse to be continually
counting these gorgeous little tables
TO make sure that there are seven and
not eight in sight The effect of such
Sanleness in furnishing, especially
when very noticeable articles are used,
is TO counteract whatever daintiness
the home might otherwise possess and
to suggest lamentable want of taste
on the part Of the owner. or rather the
mistress. The ideal home gives evil
dence in every part of woman's soften
ing influence and of her desire to pro-
vide restful surroundings that Will
quiet the Wearied eye, brain and body.
All colors are soft. cheerful and taste
fully combined; easy chairs abound and
are evidently intended for practical ser
vice; the sunlight is freely admitted by
day; softly shaded lights are used by
night; there is no lack Of foot stools,
sofa pillows md head rests. and, best
of ALL the true domestic spirit broods
over the whole, lending a charm that
money cannot buy. or poverty exclude.

Among the prominent arrivals in this

the joint author of what is probably the
most extensively used textbook on elocu-

man is eminent as a. teacher of the art
of speaking, and is himself reader or

secured to deliver a lecture and give n
reading at the University of Utah today.
The lecture will be given at the main
building at 4:30 in the afternoon, and the

TASTEFUL FURNISHING OF HOMES
= Salt Lake Artist Gives Practical
Views on the Subject.

Views on the Subject.
IF there is one thing in which that
autecrat, fashion, should be ignored
it is in the furnishing of home If
fashion always meant beauty, it
would be we'll to follow the former:
but as it often means a great dead of
ugliness. with a small amount of that
beauty which is a joy forever, it is
much better to suit ones individual
raste and pay no regard TO present
fad.
There are laws of beauty, based up
on scientific principles, that are as
old as the everlasting hills, and if we
understand and follow them, it makes
no difference what fashion is reign
ing, true beauty remains che same
forever.
4. At present there is a rage for every
thing, antique in furniture. Old styles
are revived, especially those of the
latter half of the lest century Many,
but not all, of these are beautiful,
though it MATTERS little. If most peo-
PIE want antique styles, they buy
Them regardless of a. thought as TO
couraging fact, however. We do not
see the dreadful nlachine-made hor-
rors SO much as we did few years
ago, when furniture was loaded down
with knobs and projections of the
most fearful and wonderful designs:
and as If this were not enough,
chairs and sofas were upholstered in
gaudy vulgar plush, THE whole thing
a standing invitation to dust that
could not be gotten rid of. There is
only one virtue in this Kind of furna-
ture. 1t is generally so badly made
1t cannot last for future generations
10 laugh at.
We certainly show a tendency TO
Improvement, and it is not a difficult
thing to find furniture beautiful and
simple in design, ct a reasonable
price.
1t Is much better, in a country
where there is 50 much dust, to have
chairs Of wood or wicker-work, and
instead of upholstered coverings, have
pretty cushions that can easily be

SONG.

o like a queens her happy tread,
And like a queens her golden head!
But Q. at last, when all is said,
Her Homan's heart for me!
We wandered where the river cleaned
Meath oaks that unused and pines that
dreamed,
a wild thing of the woods she seemed,
So proud, and pure, and free!
All heaven drew nigh to hear her sing,
When from her Fps her soul took wing;
The oaks forgot their bordering,
The pines their reverie-
And o, her happy queenly tread.
and o, her queenly golden head!
But o, her heart when all is said,
Her woman's heart for me.
