MISCELLANEOUS EXPENSES.

To the Editor OF the Globe.
Your efforts in behalf of lower
taxes" are not only timely bEt positively
necessary. If the taxpayers would
only give the mater attention at the
proper time they would be able to
save themselves many dollars. My at
tention has been called to the pamphlet
issued by the city comptroller in De-
cember 1894, under the title of ''City
Comptroller's Estimate of Expenses of
the City of st. Paul for the Year 1895. -
On page 13 of the book is the general
fund estimate for the year, as follows:

SILVER IN THE FIFTY-FoURTH.

Ex-Congressman Hendrix, of Brook
lyn, is member of the New York
chamber of commerce, and of
committee of that body that has
been engaged for several weeks in
making a poll of the Fifty-fourth
congress to ascertain the chances
for the passage of any free coinage
bill. In the house SO members are
in favor Of it; So are classed as
doubtful, and 216 are unalterably
opposed tor any further utilization in
the coinage of the white metal. In
the senate 43 are opposed to and SO
are in favor of free coinage. AS
the Eagle, of that city, remarks,
this showing loses the Importance
it would have were there not pres
ident in the chair who would veto
any such measure that might pass
congress, but it is reassuring as
showing that there is no possibility
of such measure being passed at
all in either house.
The danger line was passed last
February. The Iebb of the tide has
been so rapid since that the dullest
could see and note it. That large
and noisy element in the move
ment, the fellows who thought they
saw a political ark in it for them,
have mostly subsidized. The trimmers
have deserted. Here and there is
some one like Vest or Stewart, fes-
sils, who persists in his position,
kept there either by pride of opin-
ion or interest or simple obstinacy.
The cause of the subsidence is in
the refutation, not by argument, but
by that more convincing thing, a
demonstration. of the falsity of the
basic proposition, the scarcity of
money. Reviving industry has
shown that money was not scarce,
but only wanting confidence. When
the latest bond issue restored con-
fidence, money came out of it's hid
ing, wearied of it's enforced idleness,
and eager for work. With it came
renewed industrial activity; and the
discomfort, bred of hard times and
industrial depression, vanished
With it went the backbone of the
silver movement. 1t collapsed as
speedily as did the greenback move
ment in 1879
Meanwhile the campaign of educa-
ton has been doing it's work. Men
more generally now understand the
nature of money, it's relations to
trade and industry, and the relation
of the government to it. Before the
exposure of the effects of free coin
age at fictitious ratio, the sophisms
that ObScured the sober common
sense Of people for a while disap-
peared. There was a return of the
recognition of the fact that a gov
ernment cannot, create values nor
make money. With this clearing
away Of sophistry and romance, the
field is open for a sensible consider
alton of the whole currency question,
and a return of the government to
sane methods of finance.

ST. PAUL AND THE G. AR.

The choice of st. Paul as the city
to entertain the Grand Army of the
Republic in 1896 is certainly a good
one as far as the city itself is con-
cerned. The one positive objection that
can be urge dagainst st. Paul as the
encampment city is it's distance from
the center of population, and after
that there can be nothing but praise
spoken. No cities in America are more
delightful for such a gathering as
that Of the national encampment of
the Grand Army of the Republic than
st. Paul and Minneapolis.-Col
Dispatch.
st. Paul was victorious in securing
the Grand Army encampment for 1896.
This is not only welcome news to
residents of the Sanity city, but we
are proud of it and will do our best
to help entertain the battle-scarred
veterans as they should be when they
visit the grandest state in the Union-

INDEPENDENTS AND MUGwUMps.

The opposition which has become
manifest to the Democratic ticket
in Maryland is unintelligible even to
the most ardent reformer. We have
no special admiration for Senator
German or for his political methods.
The G l o b e has been outspoken in
declaring that these have, on fire.
quent occasions, initiated against
the purity of Democratic policy and
the prospects of Democratic success.
1t holds, Furthermore, that when a
machine obtains control of any po-
litical party, and uses it's power to
force upon it's members candidates
or policies of which they do not ap-
prove, it is their right and their
duty as citizens to rebel against it
and throw off the unwholesome DOM
1nation. That, however, is not the
situation in Maryland. It is true
that the Democratic state conyen-
ton was in the hands of Mr.. Cor
obtained, however, by perfectly fair
and legitimate means, Through the
voters at the primaries. There was
no suspicion of unfairness, no bolt
ing, and no attempt to gag a help
less minority. Not only is that the
case, but the ticket nominated by
the convention is unobiectionable.
The bitterest opponents of Senator
German do not claim that his
friends are attempting to force unfit
candidates upon the people. They
DO not object to the men named as
men, but only to the fact that they
are friendly to Mr.. German and be-
long to his wing of the party. This
is not an adequate reason for refus-
Ing to abide by a conventions de-
cision. If the Democrats Of Mary
land or any part of them desire to
throw off the supremacy of Mr.. Cor
man, they know how to go about il.
1t is not necessary in order to do
that to split the party, or to turn
the state over to the Republicans.
The parallel which some have at
tempted to draw between the state
Of affairs in Maryland and that
which existed in New York a short
time ago is entirely fallacious. The
mutiny Of the Democrats In New
York state was not so much against
the dictation of Senator Hill as it
was against the nomination of Nav
nard, upon which he had insisted.
This candidate was unfit, by every
| test, the position for which he had
been named. That was the excuse
and the vindication of those Demo-
Gratis who refused to support him.
Nothing Of the sort is true in
Maryland. The candidates on the
state ticket are irreproachable. and
even those who declare that they
will not vote for them base their
objections on other grounds than
| that Of personal unfitness. This be-
| ing the case, the sympathy and sup
| port of loyal Democrats should be
given to the regular ticket, fairly
named and duly placed in the field.
If Democrats nominated for office

An Image Of Wood and Wax Carries
Through London In 1858.

An Image of Wood and Wax Carried
Through London In 1858.
When Edward Burrough, the ~Qual1er
Apostle of London, whom George
Fox called his "Son of Thunder, was
passing through Charing Cross ON his
way to the city, upon the '22d day of
the ninth month, 1868, he found the
streets crowded with people. 1.-THE
guards of soldiers, horse and foot, - says
he, stayed me and stopped my horse and
said l might not pass that way. Mel
ther, indeed, / will, = adds he, "by rea-
son Of the throng Of people. +"
When he inquired the reason of "this
thronging and pressing of multitudes,
he was told that they all came out "only
TO see dead image and invented fea-
ture, without life or breath, which would
be carried this way. II was not the
great Protectors body, but dead image
of wood or wax, arrayed and decked
with foolish inventions, and it twas to
be carried from place to place that day
between Somerset House and Westmin-
ster, as was usual in the time Of popery,
for multitudes Of foolish people to gaze
upon and wonder after and admire. "
The jealous Quaker thought the statue
Of Oliver Cromwell all the more an in
sult to his memory because "he was
once q great instrument IN the hands OF
the Lord to break down many idola-
trous images and grievous idols And
have they now, said my spirit, made u
costly image of him? And are such as
svere once his soldiers, who pulled down
images and crosses, and all such popish-
like stuff wherever they met with it,
now guarding his image and watching
over it, and his children and officers
following it, multitudes of the inhabit-
ants of London gazing after it? This is
sad, said l, and a great pity. Is this
The end and final farewell Of once noble
Oiiyer?"
Edward Burrough concluded that it
was "a judgement" upon Cromwell to
be thus wronged after his death, because
he had suffered the servants of the Lord
tthe Quakers) TO be prosecuted aud inn
prisoned for crying against such things
as were popish lie says that Cromwell
himself would have been angry at it.
81 knew the man when he y'es living
and had the knowledge of his spirit
.and lam persuaded if it had been asked
him in his lifetime if such an image
should be made like him, and then set
up in such place, | believe he would
have denied, say, and said, 1t shall
not be there for me, when | am dead
If it had been his bones, added the
Quaker. 81 should not have had aught
against it, whereas it was but an image
made by hands. +" So Burrough went
home and wrote his Testimony Against
Great Idolatry. '--W Westminster Gazette

Famous Cook.

The fattening Of poultry has been
made the subject of special attention by
NJ. Josephs, the great chef who has
started restaurant in Paris. The poul-
try that he uses is fed according to his
own directions. 1t is first allowed
a run of 200 yards. A few days after
this is curtailed to 175 yards, and then
reduced daily until the poultry is con-
fined in boxes. Beautifully plump and
fat it then is and ready for the crowned
heads who honor his establishment
To see Joseph carve one Of these birds
is a revelation. He holds it in midair
on a fork. With his knife he then dex-
terously skins round the wings and
legs, and before it is possible to say
Jack Robinson every portion OF the
bird is carved and ready to be served

Although the school exhibits are most

much interest. That of the Atlanta firm

perfumes, soaps etc. We found in charge
a Mr.. Moses Amos, Junior member of
