American, Stories.

Robert Barr, the Luke Sharp of
The Detroit Free Press, and the digni-
fled associate editor of London maya
zine, says that Americans have ALI the
IDEAS but Englishmen have all the
finish. He says that the American
who goes to London must guard his
stories, if he ever expects to use them,
as they will be taken out of his mouth
and made into copy before he knows it.
Over here a literary man tries all OF
his ideas upon his friends before he
thinks of printing them on paper.
They are polished by being Knocked

Carter OF Gainesville" out of stories he

Mr.. Barr says that an American au-
thor came to him one day and said:

ing the alleged bribery in connection
With the attempt msae to pass the
Humphrey racing bill at the late
session of the Legislature, the Gov
ernor expressed himself ~ followr
ut 10 fact that certain members Of
the General Assembly were paid large
sums for their support Of the Humpb-
rey law. One member, l am told, was
paid 5000 by An officer Of the racing
association. All these facts will doubt
less be made public At the proper time
and place.
That boodling or attempted bood-
ing has marked the progress Of nearly
every important bill through the As
sembly is common report, and there is
plenty OF evidence on the subject.
Whether the Senate and the House will
notice the Dwyer and Plotke charges
and inquire into them, cannot say,
but the two houses clearly owe it to
their honor to make q thorough inves-
tigation.
"Cnless something is done to break
up the practice Of boodling in the
Legislature it will result in the break
ing down of our State institutions. IL
some Of the members who make prac-
tice Of selling their votes for money
could be sent to the penitentiary it
would be the best thing that could
happen to the State. The conviction
and punishment of legislative bOOdlers
would free the Legislature from such
practices for years to come"

1t pays to advertise in a live news
paper all the year around. 1t pays just
as we'll in summer as it does in winter.
That ancient and very foolish SUPER
stition that advertisers could afford to
keep out of print during the hot
months has been effectually exploded.
The great public consumes food, wears
out clothes, shoes and hats and pur-
chases furniture and all the necessaries
of life in summer as we'll as winter.
Indeed, the number Of people who are
shrewd enough to see that it is often
profitable to wait for summer bargains
is constantly increasing. The mer-
chant who attracts these customers by
seasonable and interesting announce
ments of what he has to sell will make
money whether the weather is hot OF
cool, dry or rainy.

a Mathematical Problem.

Put on your thinking cap, and take
q day off, and figure the following
problem to a correct solution. 1t must
be solved, and the people of the United
States must do it:
The private indebtedness of the peO-
pie of the United States amounts to
more than $22 ,OOO, 100000. The public
debts-that is national, state, county,
city and corporations to $2O,-
OOO, ,OOO, 600; total $42 2,OOO, 100000. The
annual interest on this sum, at seven
per cent, is $2,940 600, 900. The average
cotton crop of the country is 100000
bales; at $25 per bale it is $500, ,OOO, 900.
The value of the corn crop is 1851 1885,
600. The value of the wheat crop is
SALE, 5,592 900. The oat crop is valued at
$165, 5,259,OOO. The annual gold produc-
ton is valued at 5000, 600. The an.
nual silver production is valued at $751;
100000. The total value of the cotton
corn, wheat, oats, silver and gold crops
is 81, ,54O, ,236, 800. Now, if every cent OF
