IN OBJECT LESSON.

AS the campaign Of education pro-
crosses it is probable that those who
work for living will be able to see
that free silver will mean a rise in the
prices of what they have to buy, and
that rise will not be accompanied by
corresponding increase in their wages
What will happen here with free sill
yer" is what has happened in India and
Japan. Mr.. Edward Dun, United
States minister to Japan, has lived in
that country twenty-five years, and is
thoroughly acquainted with the condi-
ton of affairs there. He points out
that the establishment Of the silver
standard in Japan and the adjustment
of the gold standard took place at
about the time the so-called "crime of
'73" was perpetrated in this country,
but the effects have been of widely
different nature. The standard coin of
Japan is the yen, worth then a few
cents more than dollar of our money.
1t has deprecated in value since then
until 1t is now worth about SIS cents, for
the commercial ratio of gold and silver
is, OF course, just the same in Japan as
in this country. The laborer gets 55
cents worth of pay for full yen's
worth of work; but when he buys any
thing he pays for it in this deprecated
coinage. and gets only So cents worth
of goods for a full yen's worth of labor
That is, the purchasing power of the
money he receives for his work is about
one-half the value of the work he per-
forms to earn that money. Wages
have not gone up and the price of
commodities has not lowered apprecia-
bly,, while the purchasing power of the
money has been cut in two. Most of
the Japanese get about Is cents day
for their labor, and this goes just half
as far as it did before. All imported

The Yale color is decidedly blue just
now. Yale was fairly, neatly and ex-
peditiously rowed out in one round
yesterday. 1t is not surprising, al
though it Is painful. 1t was little too
much to expect that Yale would win
in contest with such a picked and
seasoned crew as the Leander. That
she did as well as she did is solacing.
And it is perhaps just as well, when
the whole situation is considered, that
she did not win. Her representatives,
who have become popular in England,
will now be able to retain their popu-
larity and will have not little SYM
pathy in addition. Yale will have an
opportunity to learn from defeat, which
is often quite as instructive as victory,
and she will have a chance to realize
how she has made others feel. All Of
which is rather cold consolation, but it
is the best that can be offered.
While Yale did not do yesterday for
herself and for the United States of
America what her ''rooters" We're hop
ing and bowling for, those United
States had something done for them.

SOME nNooUR4Gn arENr.

The situation in Chicago is, on the
whole, encouraging to those who wish
the country well. The silver gang are
doing all they can to disgust and repel
the Democrats who are not entirely
crazy. They disposed of Senator Hill,
the greatest Democrat, promptly and
brutally. They are quarrelllng among
themselves with great fervor Comp
troller Eckels puts the situation forcibly
and truly when he says: The impress
sion is already being created that the
canvass they will carry on will be char
acterized by jealousies among the lead
ers and impracticable attempts to for
mulate the issues of their campaign in
such a way as to hold the Populists to
the ticket. The fact that they expect
Populistic aid will make Democrats
who do not believe in the 'isms" Of
that creed slow to lend them any sup
port whatsoever Any alliance with
Populism can only be made by prom
Use to place on the statute books the
laws which the Populists approve OF
course all this will drive still further
from them the business interests of the
country. The candidates of this con-
ventien upon the platform which it is
proposed to adopt cannot but be over
whelrningly defeated. 1t is just as bad
to have the other vagaries of Populism
as to have rotten money plank.
Neither appeals to the conscience or
the good sense of the American people,
and neither ought to. I do not think
there is any choice in candidates Not
one of them rises to the mark of what
a President should be. A single "ism''
is not sufficient to make man capable
of conducting the affairs of this gov
eminent. I do not believe any of the
men suggested could carry on the af.
fairs of the presidential office success
fully, if, after election, he had to listen
to the advice Of those who had here put
him in nomination.
That's about the size of it. The coun-
try can't afford to put its trust in
cranks and conspirators. 1t is good
thing to have them gathered together
into a party which can be knocked into
smithereens when the people get
chance at 1t.

newer sort that Is becoming fits the
arm almost closely from shoulder to
wrist and is finished with a full top
outlined with ornamentation of various
kinds. Consideration of this sleeves
suitability to stout wearers makes
clear how likely it is that tight sleeves
are soon to be, because as is explained
above, women that are no longer slen-
der will adopt them, others whose arms
are well proportional will not be
averse to showing the good outlines,
and the DIRECTORS will not be mostly
scrawny folk. Even the latter can be
completely suited by such forms Of
tight sleeves as are now shown, for
they have puff tops added that make
the wearer cast the same wide shadow
that the recent stiffened puffs did.
But these are coming styles and just
now for dresses of summary stuns the
bishop shape is the best. For a batiste
dress like that displayed here, nothing
else would do half as well. The
ground of this goods was white, and it
was crossed with green, blue and red
lines, it's full skirt being lined with

telling a story about Henry Clay which
is full of interest, and which, so far as
the writer has been able to ascertain,
has never before been published.
They have told it until they fully be-

fixed in the traditions of the town. and
it is told below as they tell it in He

Ready to Welcome Tight Sleeves.
Full bishop sleeves of the sort shown
below have been generally welcomed
this summer because of the comfort
they afford, but the signs that point to-
ward an early return of tight sleeves
are not a few, and there is no denying
that large sleeves are unbecoming on
stout wearers. They add their own
width to the apparent width of the fig
ure, and when the latter is spreading
after the manner of Lady James, the
addition is far from welcome. For
such women the sleeves may be full,
but it should droop towards the elbow
and have no stiffening. Another and a
