t,ons we're held in Pennsylvania, a motor
ious Republican state, whose people have
been "protected" in their Republicanism
for generations OF the expense of the
west and other sections of the country
Naturally one would expect, according to
the theories of the Republican press, not
to fnd Democrats enough in Pennsyl-
vsnia this year to make respectable
funeral gathering; but few of them APP

UNDER the present gold-standard-at-
any, cost method only about $52,0O0,O00
in gold will have actually been received
by the government from outside sources
for which it will have assumed an indebt-
edness Of $l00,00O,000. In other words
the "endless chain" system of redemption
will have cost the public $59,00O,000, of
the gill 100000, which should have been
added to the gold reserve through this
last sale of bonds. Such facts as these
are serving to educate the voters of the
country far more thoroughly than ever

Herr Ernst Faber. a son OF Johann
Faber. has just delivered, before the
Polytechnic Society OF Berlin. a lecture on
the history OF lead pencils. How old the
lead pencil is nobody knows exactly. But
graphite. out OF which the pencils are
fabricated. was not used for drawing In
Albert Durer's time. so that the pencils
must have come into vogue subsequent to
his period. The Cumberland deposits
were discovered IN the sixteenth century,
and carefully watched by soldiers lest
the precious material should be stolen.
A century later the first German pencii-
maker commenced business IN Nurem-
burg. He THIS founded what grew to be
a most important Industry. At present

OF Bohemia. But IL can easily be made
