Street-Sprinkling Improvement.

There was notable improvement yes
terday and last night in street sprink-
ling, the result in the Rosas case hav-
ing become known. There is room,
however, for a great deal more of inn
provement. Mud, slush and floating
slickens in the streets in dry season is
a nuisance, reproach and an outrage
on human nature. The example cf the
Rosas case has brought many users of
the streets to declare that they will take
like action in other districts If the
sprinklers defy decency and common

The Republican
Financial Plank
Adopted by the National Convention at St.

"The Republican party is unre-

the enactment of the law providing
for the resumption Of specie pay
ment in 1879; since then every dol
lar has been as good as gold.
1--WE are unalterably opposed to
every measure calculated to debase
our currency or impair the credit of
our country. We are, therefore. op-
posed to the free coinage of silver,
except by international agreement
with the leading commercial nations
of the world, WHICH WE PLEDGE
OURSELVES TO PROMOTE; and
until such agreement can be OBJ
tanned, the existing gold standard
must be preserved. All our silver
and paper currency must be main
tanned at parity with gold, and we
favor all measures designed to
maintain inviolable the obligations of
the United States and all our money,
whether coin or paper, at the pres
ent standard, the standard of the
most enlightened nations of the
world"
