ment. a family Bible. a rocking chair.
six cakes of toilet soap, an eight-day
clock. a reversible coal hod and
manicure set. The offer OF these ele-
CANT luxuries went begging until one
patriotic Cleveland merchant came for

riage. whereupon one loving couple
timidly sent word that they were all
most persuaded and thought they

A Sketch By Justin Mccarthy.

Justin Mccarthy is as clever as any
of them when 1t comes to writing
sketches of men in public life. He is
a good novelist and has written his
tory, but he has also been in practical
politics. and he can talk entertaining
ly of the men he has met in that field.
In the Forum for June. Mr.. McCar-
thy pays his respects to Mr.. Joseph
Chamberlain; he has not a very high
opinion of Chamberlain, and he is
willing that his readers should know
that. Indeed. Mr.. Mccarthy is justi-
fed I'm this; practically Mr.. Chamber
lain went back" on the cause which
has had in Mccarthy an eloquent and
faithful advocate. When he began his
career In public life. Mr.. Chamberlain
was the avowed defender of the Irish
cause. but he has fallen by the way
side.
1t is Mr.. McCarthy's manner of ex-
pressing his contempt that entertains
us. He doesn't sand-bag Chamberlain.
but he jabs him adroitly between the
ribs. He gives some praise, but this is
made so faint by what follows that 1t
becomes painful. He says that Cham
berlain is an excellent debater-one of
the best-but he SCOTS at the notion of
any reserve power in the man; Il am
pretty well convinced that all the
goods are in the shop window"
"Mr. Chamberlain" adds the sketch,
us not a good man to go tiger-hunt-
ing with. More than once he has
sought his own safety in a moment of
political danger and has made off and
left his comrade in the lurch." Mr..
Mccarthy thinks that there can
hardly be worse stroke OF
luck for a man in political life than
to get the repute of being too clever
by half" and he thinks that is what
ails Chamberlain.
Mr.. McCarthy's article is rather racy
reading. 1t is what has lately come in
this country to be called a roast
but IL is deftly done.

Art as on Aid to Nature.

The ladies of Helena are not quite
sure whether or not IL is right and
proper to adopt boomers as a costume
for bicycling. The Helena press does
not keep us fully informed as to the
arguments that are advanced pro and
con, but whatever be the merits of the
discussion all the ladies of Helena who
go bicycling will end by wearing
boomers. There is no doubt about
that, because fashion has decreed 1t,
common sense has endorsed 1t, and in
nearly all cities boomers already hold
sway. In the Golden Gate park at
San Francisco of a pleasant day you
may see hundreds and hundreds of
ladies blooming bewitchingly in their
boomers and exposing the immediate
agents OF locomotion to an elevation
about an inch and three-quarters
above the knee 1t must be confessed
IL seems a much prettier and more
graceful costume when its wearer is on
a wheel than off; walking seems to
mar it's attractiveness. and to sug-
gest to the imagination Of the beholder

wear off If boomers should become as

He rlisrepresents Them.

Senator Squire. of the state OF
washington, tells a newspaper reporter
in the East that he is inclined to FAVOR
Reed for the presidency. As far as
silver is concerned. Senator Squire was
never any good on earth; he STOOD III
with voorhees, and Dolph and the rest
of silver's enemies during the extra
session, and he voted with them at the
hnish. He had a remedy" and ne
nronosed Il. but the senate paid no at
tention TO II.
II there are square acres on this con-
tinent where the depression OF the
times amounts almost TO Distress they
are the acres where stand the Puget
sound cities which Mr.. Squire misrep-
resents. The sentiment in that section
Is with the advocates of silver-there is
no shadow Of doubt on that score.
Montana, carrying her burdens as she
is Obliged TO, is a paradise. compared
with Western Washington. The total
of unpaid back taxes and Of past-due
interest there is appalling. The peo-
ple are quite worn out with the bur-
den-bearing of the past three or four
years; and they see no signs of bright
er days.
OF course, local causes have operated
10 bring about the hard times in those
coast towns-they could not possibly
keep up the pace at which they were
moving. They suffer as. in their time.
other cities all the way from Buffalo
10 the Cascade range have suffered
when they were frontier limits; spec
ulation went riot for a time in Western
Washington. But what the coast cities
want is the relief which the whole
Atlantic slope needs; they will lag as
long as the one great aim Of wrong
legislation is constantly to enhance
the purchasing power Of gold.
There is no mistake as TO the senti-
ment Of the people in Mr.. Squire's con-
stituency; they are in very marked
majority with the silver men, but they
do not get a hearing through their
public men. Imagine Senator Squire,
in next years republican convention,
undertaking to pledge the citizens of
the Puget Sound country to the sup
port of Thomas B. Reed, than whom
free coinage never had a more persist
ent foe.
