yidcd, and no women and children

These provisions arc to be enforced

Then and Now.

In July, 1892, the well-known trade
report, Dunn's Review, described the
character Of the fiscal year then just
closed as follows:
"a fiscal year never matched III the
history Of the country in volume OF
industrial production in magnitude
Of domestic exchanges or in foreign
trade has just closed. Railroad earn
ings have been the largest in'aHy
year thus far, and clearings in June
the largest ever known in that month
exceeding those Of last year s per
cent, and for the whole year the lar
gest ever known outside Of New York.
Failures < have been the small
est in five years"
How would such a description
apply to the fiscal year which closed
June 30, 1896? What a change the
! four years has wrought!-River Press.

"There is no need Of man starv
ing or begging in this world" and
the speaker, a well-dressed man, be-
slowed look Of mingled pity and
contempt upon a poor specimen or
humanity that had struck him for a
dime. III came up to Omaha about
a week ago without a red cent,
white cent, or any other colored cent.
Just one nickel was my pile. What
did I do? Go out and strike some
man for a quarter to buy meal? 60
out and rustic for Il job while I was
starving? No, sir. | went to a cheap
hotel where my baggage was sutfi-
cicnt guarantee for room and 4 few
meals.
After engaging a room [ hunted
up Il drug store and invested my
nickel in one Of those little bottles OF
perfume. Then I jollied a cigar man
into giving me several sheets Of tin
foil used in keeping tobacco moist.
With these I returned to my room
and contiscated the slab OF CASTLE
soap which ornamented the saucer on
the wash stand. [ cut it into pieces
about quarter of an inch square.
Then poured about half a pint Of
Missouri river water into the basin
and into it empticd the perfume.
My next step was to drop these
chunks of CASTLE soap into the water
and leave them until they were
scented.
After they had become quite sweet
scented I took them out, wrapped
them in the tin foil and was ready
for business. Going into the resi-
dence part of the city, where the
houses were small, made canvass
and sold these pieces Of soap for %
cents each. People thought they
were samples of some wonderful new
soap warranted to take out grease
spots, no matter how deep or how
ancient.
Well, yes, perhaps l did tell them
so. But if I hadn't I wouldn't have
sold the soap, and if hadn't sold the
soap I couldn't have paid my hotc]
bill, and if I hadn't paid my hotc
bill I'd have been thrown out, ;ano
maybe have brought up in the police
court. So think I did right. ANY
way, my conscience does not trouble
me.
After l had sold out the first in
stallment I had $3.50. With it
purchased some more perfume an(
some more tin foil and was ready fol
the second batch. These I sold il
another part Of the city, and realized

there is now running from the mouth
Of the tunnel a flow Of water of about
1000 gallons per minute. This tun-

majority that cqualed the prediction

900. This is the largest majority
ever given TOR a governor IN this
state, the nearest approach to it
being in 1888, when the majority was
27,6S3. Henry Fl. Powers, the re-
publican congressional candidate in
the first district, and William Grout
in the second, are both reelected by
increased majorities, and the state
senate and house are in the control
Of the republicans by practically the
same majority as two years ago.
The weather was cool and fair
throughout the state and brought
out hundreds of republican voters
who have not been to the polls in
years. Practically the full rcpubli-
can vote was cast. On the other
hand, the lack Of organization in The
democratic ranks was apparent.
Many democrats who are for indors-
ing the Chicago platform remained
away from the polls, while the more
dissatisfied ones voted the republican
ticket. The ticket elected is as fol
lows: Governor, Josiah Grout; lieu.
tenant governor, Nelson w. Fisk

Of state, Chauncey W. Brownell: state
