The session of the city council last
night was chiefly devoted to the con-
sideration of the report of the COM
mfttee of the whole on the finance
committees report establishing the
monthly allowances of the different de-
partments, and abolishing the water
masters department and adding his
duties to that of the street supervisor.
With but few changes, the report, at
ter an animated debate, went through
by a very close vote, principal objec-
tfons being against the consolidation
of the two above named departments,
Among the other important matters
that came up was the opening of the
bids for the city printing, the passage
of a resolution endorsing the proposed
inter-mountain Semi-Centennial cele-
bration in 1897, and a vigorous protest
against the allowance of the extra
claims put in by the gravity sewer
contractors.

mates of foreign selling in this market
ranged from 10000 to $4,000. The bear
element detected indications of hqui-

fullest practicable extent. The indus

of activity. The foreign selling of
the International shares referred to
caused lower prices in the New York
stock exchange, and further conceS-
Siops in values were made IN the sue

losses were made in the inGuStrialS

occurred about the end of the first

WHAT GEN. SICKLES 81 VS..

Gen. D. E. Sickles, lifelong dem
ocrat writes thus to an army COM
rade: ssIt is fortunate that one of the
great political parties has named a
candidate for the presidency whose
admirable military record every SOL
der must look upon with admiration
and pride, and for whom he may cast
his vote without hesitation, assured
that in doing SO he is promoting the
best interests of the republic.
"I know Major Mckinley very well.
He is a man of rectitude and honor
Upon the practical and pressing is
sues of the day, he stands for all that
Americans must uphold. While I do
not agree with some of his political
views, am far more widely separat
ed from the ruinous platform of his
adversary. AS our President, chosen
as he will be, by the votes of men of
all parties, his election will not be a
partisan triumph. His administration
will guarantee the public credit and
the public decorum and order, now
threatened by a conspiracy of an
archists, Populists and socialists.
ssYou and I, and our comrades, are
not accustomed to use blank cart
ridge in the presence of an enemy;
therefore, don't propose to throw
away my vote on any third candidate.
Nor are we in the habit of withhold
ing our fire when assailed; therefore
I don't mean to stay home and not
vote at all. I shall give a patriotic
vote for my comrade, Major McKin-
ley, believing that in SO doing l am
repeating what did in s64, when as a
war democrat, I voted for Lincoln
and the union.
cit would be we'll, indeed, as you
suggest, for our comrades to make
their influence felt in this canvass.
Their voices should be heard when
the reputation and honor of our
country are imperiled. I am con-
strained, however, to say in reply to
your inquiry whether | would be
willing to take an active part in a
movement to give organized express
sion to their sentiments, that I am
quite withdrawn from public life and
must resign to others endowed with
more energy than is left to me, the
useful labo1ious task you indicate.
Very truly yours,
D. S. SICKLEs."

A FOUR-LEAF CLOVER.

Girls and boys, there are lots of us
in this big world hunting for some
thing great, noble and courageous to
do. 1t is only few that have chance
to save a trainful of lives at the risk
of his own, or dash into a burning
house or breaking waves to rescue
some one, or stop run away horse.
But there are lots of chances lust as
great, though not SO easily seen.
This is intended to be a little SER
eyes OPEN"
Do you remember the story OF the
man who spent his life in looking for
a four-leaf clover? When a boy he
was told that if he could find four
leaf clover the possession of it would
bring him ssgood luck" in all his un-
dertakings. So, acting upon the
suggestion, he starts out in search
of the coveted clover. He left his
home and friends to wander alone in
search of the tailsman, travelling
many weary miles across continents
and oceans. but all in vain. At last "a
disappointed, white haired and feeble
old man, he returned to his home to
die. AS he tottered up the forsaken
pathway, 10 and behold! the first
thing that met his eyes, growing close
beside the doorstep, was four-leaf
clover!
Have you commenced your search
for the four-leaf clover? Look around
home first.

When your stomach begins to trouble you.
it needs help. The help it needs, is to digest
your food, and, until it gets it, you won't have
any peace. Stomach trouble is very distress
sing, very obstinate, very dangerous. Many
of the most dangerous diseases begin with
simple Indigestion. The reason is that indi-
gestion (not-digestion, not-nourishment)
weakens the system and allows disease germs
to attack it. The antidote is Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial, Strengthening, nourishing cur
alive. 1t cures indigestion and renews
strength and health. Tt does this by strength
ening the stomach, by helping it to digest
your food. 1t nourishes you. Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial is made of pure herbs, plants
and wine. is perfectly harmless and will GER
tainly cure all genuine stomach trouble.

to the conclusion that if the farmer is
to get good pricee there must be
mouths to fill; and without money to
buy with, the mouths must go empty,
while plenty of work alone will give
the money"
Senator Proctor, of VT, paid fly
ing visit to Washington in connection
with National Committee business.
AS it would have been an obvious
waste of words to have asked him
how things political were in his own
state, which has never since the re-
publican party organized voted any
other way, he was asked what he
thought of the general outlook. He
replied in an aggravated Yankee
drawl which he uses upon occasion:
stWell, I don't believe that the Ameri-
can people are entirely crazy yet, SO
I feel pretty safe as to the results"
It will be long time before the
country has such another exhibition
of political freaks as the populist con-
ton was. The disgust aroused by
reading the proceedings of that con-
vention will, of itself make thousands
of republican votes among intelli-
gent men who have heretofore been
democrats. The action of that con-
vention in nominating Bryan and
Watson instead of Bryan and Sewall,
as the little side show at ST. Louis did
may fool some of the more ignorant
populists, but it will fool nobody else.
If any populist electors are elected
next November they will cast their
votes in the electoral college for Bry-
an and Sewall Tom Watson is mere
ly dummy, who was put up to scare
the Bryan managers into acceding to
the demands of the pOpulist leaders;
the scheme worked, too, and written
promises were carried away from St.
Louis in the inside pockets of some of
the populists.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, july 27, 1896.

Washington, July 27, 1896.
Republicans generally regard the
proposition of the gold democrats,
that the republicans drop the tariff as
an issue, as bait to secure the votes
of the gold democrats for Mckinley
and Hobart, as about the most as
founding exhibition of political gall
ever witnessed in this country, The
cornerstone of the republican party
is its belief in protective tariff, and
as soon as it has the power it will put
that belief into practice again, with
every confidence that it will restore
the prosperity of the country to what
it was under wise republican govern
ment in the past. 1t is perfectly true
as claimed by the gold democrats,
that sound currency has become
one of the main issues of this cam
paign, but it was democratic tariff
tinkering and the general incapacity
of these of these same gold demo-
Gratis, in the person of Mr.. Cleveland
and his administration, which made
it an issue. Believing this, and that a
protective tariff will bring back pros
porous times and remove the causes
which have made the question of a
sound currency come to the front, the
republicans could not for a moment
even consider such a proposition as
the abandonment of the advocacy of
a protective tariff. IF gold democrats
wish to support Mckinley and Hobart
on one Of the best platforms ever
adopted by a National Convention,
well and good; but if they do not, al
so we'll and good. The Republicans
can win without their votes, and have
no inducements of any kind to offer
them. The only advantage to be had
from their votes will be to add to the
republican majority and consequently
to the force of the rebuke which the
ed to make presidential campaign
on such platform as that adopted. at
Chicago and practically readopted by
the populist convention.
According to Mr.. James Mcdowell,
member of the Republican State
Central Committee, of S. Dak., and
representative Picker, of the same
state, both OF whom are now in Wash
ington, the boiling of Senator Petit
grew is not indorsed by a sufficient
number of republicans to put the
state in the doubtful column. The
Congressional committee has receiv-
ed quite a number of letters from
democrats announcing their intention
to vote for Mckinley and Hobart. The
following from Virginia farmer is
fair sample: IT have always been
moss back democrat, but I cannot
stand free silver, populism and an
archy all at one dose, and I believe
that Mckinley is our only hope for
good times again. I was fool enough
to advocate free trade, but have come

NOT A DEMOCRATBUTA PoPULIsT

The last time Mr.. Bryan was elected
to congress was in 1892. The vote of
that year showed that he then had
lost all claim for Democratic support
and that his constituents were out
and out Populists The vote for the
president that year, in Bryan's dis
trict was as follows:
Cleveland, 4,186.
Weaver, II ,O81.
Harrison, 1921.
The vote for congressman was as
follows:
Scattering, 3,269-
Bryan, (Populist and Democrat),
1884
Field, Republican,, 1854.
The Democratic presidential ticket
mustered only 1900 votes, while the
Populistic ticket polled 1900 votes.
The four thousand Democrats of that
district who voted for Mr.. Cleveland
were divided for congressman some
where between the scattering and
Mr.. Bryan. Giving to Mr.. Bryan all
the Populist votes that were cast for
Mr.. Weaver and he had but 2,700
Democrats among his supporters. In
a speech made this year, Mr.. Bryan is
quoted as saying 81 am not a Demo
crat.'' He could have truthfully add
ed stand I have not been a Democrat
for more than four years"

On one of the Southern railroads
there is a cat that lives on one of the
trains. When the train stops, the cat
jumps off at the station and walks
about The moment the conductor
calls out, Cali aboard!' puss jumps
on the train. She has the freedom of
the train and makes friends with the
passengers. Nor is this cat the only
one that likes to travel. On one of
the ferry boats that crosses from an
uptown ferry in New York City to
the Long Island shore there is a cat
that has been on the boat ten years.
She is pet of the crew and the pass
engers. Once in a while puss stays on
shore for one trip. When she does,
she stretches out on one of the big
beams on the bridge, and waits for
her boat to come back. She never
makes the trip on any other boat.
The crew feed her and care for her
tenderly
