ence. It is true that in 1S4S Austria
thought she conquered Hungary, but the
real fact is that today Hungary, through
the inherent power and intellectual u
periority OF the Magyar race, is the most
important and influential part of the
empire.
Hungary has had an organized gov
eminent ten centuries, and next year she
will celebrate the fact with one Of the
most interesting and instructive exposi-
lions of modern times. Great fairs are
rather palling on the civilized taste,
there have been so many of them, but
this one will be unique. Americans 60
ing to Europe in 1896 will. find rare
pleasure and profit in the Hungarian ma
tional show. Even though Austria down.
ed the Hungarian patriots, she could not
down the Hungarian home rule parlia-
ment and government which the Mag
var land has always enjoyed, and this
home government is preparing the ex-
position Of 1896.
1t is believed to have been in the year
SS7 that Almos, the head duke of the
Turanian tribes, crossed the Carpathians
and conquered the Slavs in Hungary.
The Turanian tribes numbered seven,
and they already had at that early day
worn compacts guaranteeing justice and
equality among themselves. In 500
Arpad, the son of Almos, finished the
job Of conquering Hungary and organ
lied a regular government. This event
will be celebrated by the exposition of
next year. The historic souvenirs and
displays Of a romantic, semioriental
country a thousand years old will be
worth travelling half around the globe
to see. The Turanian tribes of a thou
sand years ago are believed to have come
straight from the regions which were
the cradle of the human race in Asia.

stance, ten years ago very little thought
was given to political matters. The av-
erage voter knew little of what was 60

that the leaders would take care Of that.

"Do you think there will be a reor-
ganization Of the senate?' the reporter
asked.
81 think there ought to be areorgani-
cation. Why shouldn't the silver men
in the senate reorganize that body?
There are enough of them to do so, and
they could then control. Men have been
sent here year after year upon their dec
larations i'll favor Of silver, and it seems
to me that if they refuse to come to-
gether and organize the senate, they
will have to answer to their constituents
later on"
"Do you mean al organization on q
nonpartisan basis?" Mr.. Butler was
asked.
"Certainly. Why not? Why shouldn't
the silver men simply get together in
the interest of the II great issue before
Tie country, and for which they all
claim to be working? They could organ.

English Wages and Cost of Living.

A representative of the Merchant
Tailors of New York recently visi-
ted England. Investigating the sub
iect of wages and cost of living, Mr..
Robert Blissert found that girls
earned from 10 to Is shillings
week; men from one pound to 30
shillings; foremen were paid more.
He found all tue commodities Of
life from 10 to 90 per cent. dearer
than what they were in New York.
He stated there that the people Of
America could live much cheaper
than in England, and was told this
could not be, because men got board,
lodging and washing for s shillings
to 10 shillings (S2 to 81 SOY a week.
He went to see these places, travel
ing over about 80 streets leading out
Westgate. They were small houses
of 3 to rooms; a great many were
in alleyways or courtyards, 2 TO 4
rooms. They seemed wretchedly
dirty and the sanitary condition was
awfully neglected; ali sorts Of refuse
thrown about, no closet attached to
any of the houses, with but one in
yard to supply the wants of from
one to ten or fifteen families. The
food, on his inquiring, consisted:
tea and bread and butter,
or bread and herring; dinner, pork,
inferior beef or mutton, which cost
one shilling a pound for beef and ten
pence to shilling for mutton, with
pork at the same price. For tea, or
bagging, as they call it, served at
4 o'clock, they have tea and bread
and butter They have supper at
to 8 o'clock, consisting of tea,
bread and butter and sometime a
herring. This is the sum total Of
the food for the day.

WASHINGTON, April 27, 1896
While nothing IS certain in politics until
it has been accomplished, the impression is
well nigh general in Congress, although a
few of those who are committed to other
candidates will not publicly admit as much,
that Gov. Mckinley will be nominated for
President by the St Louis convention.
The original Mckinley men express conf
dence that no ballot will be taken but that
the nomination will be made by acclama.
ton OF course it is possible that some
thing may occur that will change matters,
and it is largely upon that something that
the opponents of Gov Mckinley are now
banking. but from the best obtalnable in

time as if Mckinley was bound to win

financial legislation that placed this
Government beyond condition

over to the Democratic party Il sur
plus in the Treasury, with a law
which, if the Democrats had lett it
standing on the statute books, would
have abundantly supplied the whole
necessities of this Government dur
ing all of these years. What did
the Democratic party do? Coming
into power with a threat that they
would destroy the revenue-raising
law of the country, with a threat that
they would destroy the great princi-
pie of legislation upon which the
industries of this country were thriv-

down the enterprises of the coun-

people of this country could pay
