allev-way at one side two feet wide

five partitions 4A feet apart and one

spaces to fill with apples. Place SIX
inches of clean prairie hay in the bot
tom of the car. With careful handling
from 800 to 1000 bushels OF apples
can be packed in car. Keep varieties
separate, bright colored sorts next to
the door; fill the alley-way with apples;
place clean carpet or sacking over the

the motion of the car brightens and pol
ishes the apples up. On-the other hand,
apples not covered get grllny witn

Missouri Republicans.

1t has been good many years
since the Republicans of Missouri
entered into active contests against
one another for nomination to
office, and the fact that they arc
doing so this year is an indication
of confidence in the success of the
party at the polls next November.
There are men contesting for
nomination to-day who have been
content in the past to be known as
Republican workers, interested
in the pcrpetnation of Republican
principles in Missouri and the sue
cess Of the party in national clcc-
tions. These men, conservative.

ing the present As a propitious time
to claim their rewards. They fee
that Missouri is going to drop int,
the Republican column this year.

the question, no attempt to adopt
an cquivocal statement, which the
silver men might declare meant one
thing and the gold men another.
The convention used the plaincst
words possible on the subject and
there was practically the same sort
ofunanimity in favor ofthc mainten
ance of the gold standard as
the recent Democratic convention
exhibited in declaring for the sub
stitution Of silver for gold as the
standard of values.
The Republican platform is much
the honest of the two. There is
the prctcnse in the Democratic plat
form that the adoption of the free
coinage of silver would ''restore
bimctallism," that is, result in the
use of both gold and silver as a
standard money, whereas no one of
any intelligence believes anything
of the sort. Nothing in the world
is more certain than such policy
would result in silver monometal-
lism, pure and simple, and the men
who wrote the Democratic platform
know that to be true.
There is no such false pretcnse
in the more Republican platform. II
does not mincc the words. 1t de-
clarcs emphatically for the use OF
only so much silver as may be
maintained on parity with the
present gold standard. There is
not even the mild and harmless
iugglc Of words which makes it
appear that under the present
system silver As we'll as gold is ;
''standard money"
The Missouri Republicans have
gone as far as any state convention
has gone in its declaration in favor
of maintaining the existing stand
ard of values, and against tht
plunge into the dark abyss of de
prcciated currency which is dc
mandcd by the 16-to-l advocates
The advance stand thus taken il
certain to make Missouri an i'm
portant battle ground in the coming
campaign, and it is certain to giv'
Missouri Republicans a conspicuous
position in the Republican admin
istration, which in all probability
is to come into control of the GOV

SENATOR BUTLER, of North Car
DINA, has succeeded in getting be-
fore the Senate bill to prohibit
the issuance of any more interest
bearing bonds in time Of peace.
Senator Butler is, of course, a Pop
ulist. for such measures never
cmanate from any other source,
but he has behind him the support
Of the free silver Senators. The
object of the bill is to force the
government to redeem its obliga-
tions in silver, and while it may
pass the Senate, the possibility of
its becoming law is very remote,
as the sentiment of the House is
overwhelmingly against such meas
ures. 1t means reputation, pure
and simple, and, as Senator Hill
said, in speaking against the bill,
''the creditors of the government
would eventually be paid in de-
based money

crmcnt is running behind in its

repay the loans in gold and not il
silver, or cheaper money. Unit
the revenues of the government
are again sufficient to meet al
its obligations, it will either have
to borrow on ercst-bcaring bonds
or rcpudiatc its Indebtedness ant

that this is what Senator Butler

of having to pass between triple
lines of sokliery to avoid the assas-
sin whenever he appears in public,
is not conducive to the belief that
he places much confidence in these
expressions of good will. He is a
mighty autocrat and his word is
law with millions, yet he is in con-
slant dread that each moment may
he his last. The days Of the one
man rule are nearly over, and un-
less the new czar adopts a more
liberal policy towards his people
than that of his predecessors, the
time is not far distant when it will
also be overthrown in Russia.
Nicholas II has it in his power to
do much good, and let us hope he
will make the most of his oppor-
tunity.
