Love Powder. in M,nne.o...

About the richest thing in the way Of
. criminal prosecution comes from
Warrington. c. A. Roberts. a photog-
rapher at Jackson, Mich. has been u.s.
Ing the mails to dispo e of "love pow
uers" which were to absolutely cement
the affections of any contrary miss or
hayward laddie whom the buyer wished
to control and make them love for ever
more. Uncle Sam, however, is unsenti-
mental and one day a postofflce in
spector dropped in on Mr.. Roberts and
hauled him before the court commits
sioner for using the mails for fraudulent
purposes. The evidence proved conclu-
sively that he had been prosecuting the
uefarious business all over the country.
Canada and Australia were some Of the
countries represented in the corre-
spondencs. The circulars shown were
spicy reading and explicit instructions
given as to the use of the powders and
potions. One powder was to be taken
internally, and the person to be sub
jected to the bond Of love was to be
kissed on the middle of the forehead
or on the back of the neck. and the
breath blown very hard on the spot
kissed. II the breath was not blown as
directed the spell would not work. Nu-
merous other concoctions were present
and each was to be used in different
manner, and the user was cautioned not
to use It for immoral purposes. The de-
fense set up the claim that these pow
ders were not fraud and proof could
be produced that they did all that was
claimed for them. The accused was
bound over to await the action Of the
United States court at Mankato.

National Reform convened In Old City
hall at 1920 this morning. The attend
ance was slightly better than yesterday.
The arrival of Gen" Jacob S. Coxey,
the Populist leader, and his presence
during the session, lent renewed inter
est to the conference. The session was
devoted to reading Gideon T. Stewards
paper on reforming reform parties At
Il meeting of the Executive committee
quite an animated discussion was
aroused over the proposition TO hold the
national convention in this city on May
%, just two days before the National
Prohibition convention, so as to give 1t
a chance to indorse the new partys
nominees.
At the night session 1t was decided
to name the new party, "The National
Reform party" and ii national conven-
ton was called to meet in Pittsburg on
May 20. ]. S. Coxey spoke on non

EXCITEMENT IN KENTUCKY.

Menbcrs Of the Houss and Senate Un'
seated for Partisan Purposes.
Frankfort. KY, March 11.-This, the
11th day of March. will be an unen
viable memory In the history Of Ken
lucky state politics. Blind partisan
ism and bitter passion usurped the
place of cool judgment and sober
thought. At times it looked as II there
might be an outbreak of mob violence
When 1t became known outside tha'
the House had unseated Kaufman. th'
Democrat. and that the Senate ha'
unseated the Republicans, James and
Walton. the aspect looked so threaten
ing that many OF the great crowd that
thronged the corridors made rush to
get away. There was an unseemly
rush for the Joint assembly door which
was guarded by large body Of armed
men. At one time the explosive point
was almost reached. That point would
doubtless have been reached II the Re-
publicans had attempted to force the
unseated senator's into the joint assem-
bly, meeting. Kaufman, the Democrat
unseated by the House. was already
in the hall. Senator James. one of the
unseated senator's. got in by strategy.
Within the hall Of the joint assembly
matters We're made to run smoothly
by the ruling of Speaker Worthing
that the clerk Of each house should
call the roll for the vote of the house.
Once under way, the joint assembly
proceeded to business in true parlia-
mcntary style. When it adjourned
every member left the hall In a good
humor. The breaking of the quorum
indicates this will be the strategy of
both parties through the few days that
remain of this session, and that neither
party will elect senator.
Mr.. w. G. Dunlap. who on yesterday
afternoon withdrew from his contest Of
the seat of Representative Kaufman,
returned to Frankfort to-day and i'm
mediately was besieged by the friends
of the Republican senatorial nominee,
who endeavored in vain to induce him
TO withdraw his letter addressed to
Mr.. Blanford, speaker of the House, In
which he abandoned the contest.
Mr.. Dunlap states that he will not
participate in the proceedings Of the
Legislature in any way.

use to Dewsbury must contain a GER
tain proportion of wool or consist en-
tirsly Of It. Hundreds Of tons are TAX
en- into town every week, there to be
knocked down under the auctioneer's
hammer at the regular rag sales which
IRE held. and then to be converted into
what 10 known as rag wool or "shod-
dy." When the rags reach Dewsbury
OF course all sorts and conditions go
to make up the bulk. The different
varieties have to be sorted out carefully
and placed In different heaps. A sail
or's jersey. for instance. is Of different
texture to the worn-out evening dress

Ing that the rags reach Dewsbury from
nearly every foreign and colonial port,
It can be easily understood that the
job Of sorting is not an easy one. Sol
diers Of all nations have to surrender
their uniforms at stated intervals. and
after these have been worn by some
one else until they are absolute rags
they are collected and shipped to this
country, eventually finding their way
to the Dewsbury sales. The same
thing applies to carpets. blankets,
skirtings. stockings. bed curtains and
the like from all over the world. Wool
rags go direct to the grinder for treat
ment. Even the dust is used, this be-
Ing saved and sold as a fertilizer.
Mixed cotton and woolen rags must
have the vegetable fiber destroyed
without in any way injuring the woolen
material. This is done by what is
known as the "carbonizing" process.
The raw material is then sold to manu-
facturers in various parts of the world
and a. time goes on probably finds its
way back again to Dewsbury as rags,
there to go through the same process
over again.

Can All BE Millionaires?

The Populists discount the silverites
by claiming that grcenback dollar,
which only costs cent, is just as good
and just as honest money as the 90 cent
silver dollar or the 100 cent gold dollar;
and although they join the silver miners
In supplanting the 100 cent gold dollar
with 55 cent silver dollar, it is only
for the purpose Of little later sup
planting the 55 cent silver dollar with
the 1 cent paper dollar.
Now, if the silver men are right on
silver, are not the Populists right on
paperp But if irredeemable paper
money, made legal tender for debt, is
sound constitutional money, why should
the government ever tax the people for
any purpose whatever? Why not issue
legal tender paper money to pay the
current expenses of the government In
stead of raising funds bystaxes? And
why not go still farther and let the gov
ernment issue 81, 900, 600 for every adult
person in the United States, and thus
make every citizen millionaire?
Is there not something radically
wrong in all these theories? Should not
the legal tenders for debt be made of
tomc material that contains a value
that is an equivalent for tho debt it
pays?-Dr. L. p. Miller.
Catoctin clarion. [volume] (Mechanicstown, Md.) 1871-1940, 1896-07-09
a Specimen Argument.

The following is one of Judge Crisp's
favoritc Illustrations Of the horrors of
the gold standard:
Suppose that you had been owing a
debt Of 500 for five years. You could
have satisfied that debt five years ago
with two bales of cotton. Today it will
require three bales Of cotton to cancel
the same debt Tho reason is the supply
of money has been reduced and the de-
mand has correspondngly increased. y
"Thero are several fnllaciCs in this
statement" says the Atlanta Journal
''In the first place the supply of money
has not been reduced within the last five
years, either in bulk or per capita.
"But if Judge Crisp's argument is
good there must have been an immense
increase in the currency last year. for
while it would have required nearly
four bales of cotton to pay Il debt Of 800
in 1894, two bales and a quarter would
have paid it in 1895.
"If Judge Crisp is ignorant on the
subject he is discussing, he should in
form himself before he poses as Il Demo-
cratic leader. If he knows moro than
his speeches indicate, he should not try
to deceive the people.
"When politician, after study and
thought, changes from being IA free coin
age to sound money advocate, he is
turncoat and traitor, but when, to
keep in the political swim, he changes
from sound money to free silver coin
age, God bless him! he is a statesman
and patriot, say all the silverites. y
