The political situation in the Third

fully decided to be a candidate and will
do all he can to secure the nomination.

HOW TO CARE FOR FURs.

Treat Them, Like Naughty Children, to .
Dose of the Cane.
The time approaches when heavy furs
must be laid aside, and the usual difficulty
looms up as to what shall be done to keep
them from the ravages of moths. The
simplest method is that adopted by fur
riers for the preservation of their goods,
and the simplest method is also the best,
or it would not be employed by dealers
whose prosperity depends upon the good
condition of their stock. All that is eces-
sary is a cushion about 20 inches square
and a rattan cane about yard long. Place
the fur upon the cushion with tho pile up
permost and whip it vigorously with the
cane, moving the fur upon the cushion

CARLOAD RATES.
Judge stedmnn Throws Light on

Austin, Tex, Feb. Especial THE
railroad commission thinks that much
complaint has been made In Texas
newspapers to the effect that serious
injustice results to places In the IN
terror of Texas from the carload rates
which are given to Houston and Gal
weston upon certain articles shipped
from st. Louis and other cities beyond
the limits of the state, and on account
of the supposed injustice Of 1t, the rail-
road commission of Texas. has been
frequently and severely criticised.
Judge Stedman, one of the commits
sioners In a statement given out Tor
publication today, says:
In view of such criticism. doubtless
the statement that the Texas commits
sion is not in any manner responsible
for the rates to which objection is made
will be a revelation to many people,
Nevertheless, the fact is that the COM
mission is not responsible for the car
load rates which Houston and Calves

of false principle of political economy, the editor of the Gdsette makes the Secretary say thatwhich he did not say. Under the caption of "A New Doctrine" Fridays Ga&ette says:
 The assertion of Mr Carlisle, in his Chicago speech short time since, that the free coinage of silJer meant the expulsion of gold from tho country, the diminishing of our volu1ne of currency one-third, an in crease in the price of commodities and reduction of one-half in the purchasing power of our remaining currency, is the announcement. of a new doctrine in political economy. He gravely asserts, in effect, that a contraction of the currency would cause an increase in the price of commodities
 Secretary Carlisle did not say that "a contraction of the currency would cause an increase in the price of commodities. What Mr. Car lisle did say was that an imitation in values would result from @ deprecta- ton in the parehasi5tg poaeeF of the money remainingTa very different thing. With the free coinage of silver, gold would be driven from circulation and the volume of money reduced one-third so that We would have nothing but silver money and paper money based on silver in circulation, which would reduce the purchasing power of the circulating medium to the instrinsic value of silver, and in consequence of the depreciated value of silver the prices of all commodities would be- come inflated in a corresponding ratio.
 That was the doctrine enunciated by the Secretary of the Treasury at Chicago; and it is no new doctrine, but true doctrine based upon the experience of all nations that have tried it.

opinion, would be the ''best system of finance ever devised by the mind of man. Perhaps, if money grew on trees, it would be still better, be- cause it would then require less effort to produce or obtain it. But money don't grow; neither can the govern ment mahe it. The government cannot n,ake money. The govern ment has not dollar in it's treasury that is not derived by taxtation, direct or indirect. Every dollar in the Federal treasury represents the earnings of the people. The Con- stitution of the United States does not say that Congress shall have power to atake money, but to coin money, regulate the value thereof and of foreign eoiEs. Fiat means to make" or "let 1t be done, and the government by law cannot mqke money. The prerogative of issuing "fat money" or making money belongs to and is exercised by despotie governments where the will of the King, Emperor or Ruler is the law, and has no place in a Ra- publican form of government. The Democratic party from time inn memorial has been a "hard money" and an "honest money" party, tread Jefferson, Jackson and Benton's speeches), and the fiat" doctrine has no place in the Democratic creed.

ONE of the remarkable things about the Pulaski County primaries held last Wednesday is that there were 2,35l votes cast for silver and only 355 against it, while every sound money candidate on the ticket was nominated over num- Der of 16 to shouters. This is a recognition of the fact at least that the best men for public servants can be found in the sound money ranks.
