THE REPUBLICAN TICKET

The nomination of William McKin- ley was not in any way a surprise. For months it has been evident that, barring astounding accidents, he would the natural candidate. Under the Mo Kinley bill this country enjoyed such haps never seen. When the Mckinley bill was demolished by the tariff for deficit the country immediately went into the slough of despond, and has been there ever since. As soon as the situation was seen there was a natural and powerful revulsion of feeling, and not only the Mckinley bill was appre- ciated but the man whose name is in- separably connected with it became an object of widespread popular admira- tion and respect. This feeling was most wisely and shrewdly taken advantage of by political managers who have shown that they have no superiors in  this country, and the result has amply vindicated their sagacity and rewarded their industry. There has been popu- lar demand for McKinley's nomination, and the arts of the politicians who have tried to stem the tide have count ed for little against it.
 MT. Mckinley is a man of the people. He does not boast a long line of dis tinguished and lordly ancestors, but he can claim what is better-a long line of sturdy honest, industrious, patriotic and God-fearing ancestors, from whom he has inherited the qualities that has made him great American citizen. He was born at Niles, Ohio, January %, 1843. His early youth was spent in obscurity, toll and poverty. His wise parents were ambitious for their chil- at the academy in Poland getting an education" He studied law, taught school and did other work to help him self along, and was happy, popular and respected, as he deserved to be. While at Poland he joined the Methodist church, of which he has ever since been faithful and consistent member. He was at Alleghany college for awhile, but could not go on on account of ill- ness and after his recovery went to school ol-teaching again. H" was still teaching when the war broke out, and he left his teaching for the front, being the first man in Poland to respond to LincoIn's call for troops. During the war he rose from the place of private to that of major, and earned every step of his promotion. Ex-President Hayes once wrote of him: Young as he was, we soon found that in business, in ex- | ecutive ability, young Mckinley was a man of rare capacity, especially for a | boy Of his age. When battles were | fought or service was to be performed | in Warllke things, he always LOOK ms place. The night was never too dark;
 the weather was never too cold; there was no sleet, no storm, or hail or snow
 or rain that was in the way of his
 prompt and efficient performance of
 every duty After the war he studied more law, including a two years course
 at the Albany Law school He was ad-
 mitted to the bar iii 1867, and began the 1 practice of his profession in Canton i Ohio. which has been his home since i He speedily made an impression on his
 fellow citizens. In 1876 he was elected

A curious illustration of the red-tape methods of the Brush Postoffice de- partment comes from Norfolk. A let ter-carrier, with long country round, recently purchased a tricycle., which enabled him to get over his district with greater ease to himself and a more convenient promptness to the public. In some way or other the Department became aware of this fact, and sent down an official censure to him for hav- having received permission from head quarters.

Dealers in corsets are to much pains to blan summer stays, and every good make gets out what may be called q summer edition, so the time has passed when it was impossible to get any but a cheap and badly shaped corset of the summer pattern, They are now made with a great many bones, which are connected by a flexible fibre that is as cool as net and yet as serviceabie ds the heavy twill of the winter corset, Many women wear the summer corset all the time.

A doctor in Philadelphia hospital has made study of the different ex- pressions of pain, as ejaculated by the people of various nationalities who come to the hospital to have their wounds dressed or their bones set. AL most invariably Americans relieve their feelings by profanity, the length and quality of the paths varying with the mans status in society. Some few con- fine their expressions to owl" or "Ouch!" but even mild-mannered Am ericans feel that they are privileged to swear when in pain. The Italian mur- murs a continual string of words that sound like Mama mama" and the Russians who come from the sacred precincts of Middle Alley and vicinity sway their bodies to and for while pain full operations are being performed, and a sound like "Oyer- -oyer-oyer" comes from their lips. A Chinaman has much to say while preparations are being made, but when the pain grows intense under the doctors manipulation the Ce- lestial says nothing, but looks a great deal

Queen Victoria has lived long enough to know what is good. It is said that all the apples used in her household are grown in the United States, being obtained exclusively from New Eng land The apples sent are of the kind known as the "Albemarle Pippin," and they are especially packed in polished barrels with the small United States flag and an English union jack painted on the top. They are shipped in quan- titles of a dozen barrels at a time, and her majesty has been obtaining her supply of apples from this country for nearly twenty years.

 Interesting facts concerning outdoor poor relief were submitted at the Char tiles and Correction conference in Grand Rapids One of the aims of all charitable organizations Is to care for poor humanity without pauperl2ing them through the public treasury and the greatest evil they have to contend with is the system prevailing in some cities of periodic doles, often largely influenced by political considerations, to the professional paupers, whose eX- ample and easy profit is contagion to others. Twenty-eight cities reported to the conference that the amount of outdoor relief is decreasing, while sev- en reported an increase. New York, Brooklyn, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and San Francisco are practically without this form of relief. The most marked decrease was in St, Paul from $47,000 four years ago to SIG 791 in 1895, despite the increase in pop ulation and the industrial depression, The expenditure in that city in 1895 was about twelve cents per capita of popu- lation. Other per capita expenditures in that year were seven cents in Chi cago, twelve in Denver, seventeen in New Haven, twenty-nine in Buffalo, and thirty-three in Hartford, which last named city has long had unenvia- ble pre- eminence in this respect.

THE RECESS.

The recent departure of congress from Washington for the holiday re- cess is no detriment to legislation. It can hardly be called a relief, except as it gives absolute assurance that for few days there will be nothing done in the way of manufacturing a war scare. Indeed, the lack of important business, outside of the routine ap propriation bills, marks the closing session of the Fifty-fourth congress as notably as it has it's existence up to this time It has been do-nothing congress, and so it will continue to the end.
 There is much that the members of this congress can learn of public senti- ment by observation during these holi- days away from Washington. And if they learn that the first desire and the first necessity of the country is rest from disturbance and economy in ap- propriation of the public money, it will be an advantageous lesson.

THIS BUSY WORLD.

Senator Vest, while feeling secure of being returned to the senate by the Missouri legislature next month, pro poses to take no chances. He has al ready secured headquarters at the prin- cipal hotel in Jefferson City, and it is understood he will conduct his cam paign in person there. He expects to remain in Washington until after the holidays, and then go to Jefferson City to remain until the result of the election by the legislature is known. Secretary Francis has considerable
 following among Democratic mem bers of the legislature, but Senator Vests friends do not believe these will bolt the caucus nominee.
 Women who are so pronounced in their aversion to men who assiduOusly read newspapers in street cars while women are standing, ought to know that the men who read papers while standing are by far the more danger ous class. There is a class of thieves technically known as 'mollbuzzers,' v who always operate in street cars through the medium of newspapers. They work in pairs. The accessory pretends to be so absorbed in his news paper that he does not notice that it strikes the chin of man near him and covers his scarf pin, while the principal dexterously makes away with the pin. At other times the inter- ested reader allows one sheet Of the paper to cover the lap of a woman
 who has her pocket book there, and the pocket book thereupon disappears Philadelphia Record.

The Tucson Star has no doubt what ever as to who will be the next govern or of Arizona, as witness the follow ing: up to date there are sixteen candidates for governor of Arizona, and about fifty who expect they will be rendered a commission, on account of the personal admiration Mckinley has for them, and his generous feeling for all the Buckeye boys. One thing is certain, there can be but one man appointed, and from the present indi- cations, which will continue to be- come more certain until the middle of March, the gentleman who will reach that persimmon is the individual who halls from the state of Wisconsin, and who has been the leader of the McKin- ley fight in Arizona for four years straight. That is the way it looks to a man who believes Mckinley stands by his true and tried friends

PAVE THE STREETS.

The need of street paving in Phoe- nix is emphasized every time it rains. After the tremendous downpour Mon day night the streets were transformed into lakes. Yesterday mud abounded. It was ankle deep in places. Washing ton street, the principal thoroughfare, presented disreputable appearance.
 It is high time for the people of Phoenix to address themselves to the question ,iof pavements. Washington street ought to be paved from Seventh avenue to Seventh street. In all prob ability macadam pavement would be the cheapest. The material lies close at hand. With proper supervision a roadway could be constructed which would make Washington one of the finest streets in the country. The city council should take hold of this mat ter. There is no economy in further delay The city is now full of strang- CTS. Most of them are people who live in regions where street pavements are considered necessities. It is bad ad- vertisement for Phoenix to have strangers wading through mud in the chief business thoroughfare If Wash | ington street were to be macadam:zed the improvement would be so marked | that Adams and Jefferson and other streets would speedily demand atten- tion. In few years, by careful work the chief streets of the town might be reclaimed. The investment would be a paying one The experience o1 other towns attests to this.
 Topeka, Kansas, ten years ago, was as badly off in rainy weather as Phoe
 nix now is. Kansas avenue was al
 most impossible on wet day. Pub
 lie spirit finally brought about the
 much needed reform. Street after
 street was asphalted, until now Topeka
 is one of the best paved cities in tht country In Phoenix the reform coul(
 be made at fraction of the cost en
 tailed upon the Topeka taxpayers.

There is no especial appropriateness in the use of the word Yuletide as a substitute for Christmastide or Christ mas. Yule was the old Scandinavian name for the holidays that came at the winter solstice; and although some of the heathen customs remain-the use of Christmas trees, for eXample-that is hardly good excuse of referring to "Yuletide services" at the churches, as has been done of late.
