OPPOSED TO TRUSTS.

Mr.. Bryan, as Chief Executive, Would
Drive Them Out of Existence.
Ny friends, in so far as Republicans
and former Democrats have criticised
my election as menace to law and Or
der I want to say to you that their
fear is not that as an executive I will
be lax in tho enforcement of law. Their
fear is that as an executive I would not
respect persons.
Who is it that is so afraid that law
will not be enforced? Those who are
most fearful that there will Re lax en-
forcement of the law are the very per-
sons who would suffer most if the laws
were enforced.
Those persons who are afraid that
law will be violated with impunity are
the ones who have violated law with
impunity.
If Mr. Harrison wants to raise the
question of the survival Of or ;nstltu-
tioEE, I will tell HIM that the great
trusts Of this country that are support
ing the Republican ticket are the great
est menace to our government.
The Coal trust sends its representative
to sit by every fireside ard e1acts trib-
ute from those who need warmth. The
trust sends it's representative to collect
tribute from those who use light.
The trusts Of this country, with their
representatives, are collecting tribute
from the people, and when re protest
against it they call us disturbers Of the
peace and anarchists.
am opposed to trusts. AS an execu-
tive shall use what power I have to
drive every trust out of existence.
If present laws arc not sufficient to
meet this evil, I, if elected. will recon-
mend such laws as will.
If the constitution Of the United
States is 30 construed as to prevent any
interference with the operations Of the
trust. shall recommend such amend
ment to the constitution az will permit
the punishment of these mer.
My friends, there is great contest
in this country which must be settled,
and that is whether few men banded
together are more powerful than all the
people.
And while J. do not want to array
class against class, I an willing to ar
ray all the people who suffer from the
operations CT these trusts against the
few people who operate the trusts.

COMFORTABLES AND BLANKETS.
;ry5cessary Articles in the First Cool
Weather.

Weather.
The first cool days of fall, and ever
the days of late summer, frequently
call for warmer bedclothing. Nothing
is likely to be more serious than night
chill, such as is frequently brought on
by insufficient protection from the COO
night air. The sudden changes of this
season are too well known not to warn
everyone to be cautious. Flannels of
light quality and warm cashmere stock
ings are as much needed now by infants
and invalids as heavier tiannels are il
the depth of winter. Where expense is
of no moment, blankets of soft wool are
the first choice, but a vast number OF
people are forced, from necessity, to use
comforta bles.
There is really very little choice OF
the score of economy if the comfort,
ables are purchased all readymade, as
a good light one that is properly mad,
costs almost as much as pair OF
blankets of the same warmth. The
readymade comfortable is, moreover
seldom put together so that it can be
laundered.
It is a very simple matter to make &
good-sized comfortable at home, il
there is a quilting frame in the house

than the cheap bats" that require

"Eow To FIJI the Milk Cam

This is the title of a novel and instructive
pamphlet issued by the Smalley Mfg. Co.,
Manitowoc, Wis. 1t describes the most
modern method of stock feeding, emphasiz-
ing the Importance of the silo on the farm
and the intelligent feeding of ensilage. The
Smalley Mfg. Co. are doing good work in
their effort to advance the interests of the
farmer, the stock raiser and the dairyman.
Their pamphlets are a source of valuable
information and should be read by every
one interested in the subject. No. l de-

OSTRICH PLUMES.
Feather Tassels of the New Thread for
Boas and Capes.

Thread
Boas and Capes.
There has been a new departure in
the manufacture of ostrich feather
trimming. The feathers themselves
have been transformed from the
sprightly, curly tips to a stem with
long fringe hanging from its fiues. The
attempt is to make them droop like
paradise feathers, as that is the craze
of the hour. The fringe is usually in
a different tint from the rest of the
Feather. white feather, for instance,
will have yellow fringe about eight
inches long.
1t appears to best advantage, how
ever, when made into tassels and used
ito trim boas and capes. This material
lis not new; it is merely a new way
of using the feathers themselves. The
stiff, ungainly stem, which has always
been so much in the way of progress
in feather manufacture, has at last been
removed, and the soft fiues are found
pliable. The fringe is made by simply
twisting the fues together, three or
four being used to make one string
for feather, and more according to
length wanted when a tassel is to be
made. The tassels on the end of the
white feather boa mentioned are about
IS inches long and as thick as mans
arm. 1t took four girls ten days to
twist the 1000 ends used in these tas-
sells.
p. Small tassels are used to trim feather
,,1,rs7t-;4,- cs7- I'd -collarettes, and in this way
they very much resemble the fur tails
that edged fur capes last year. In
stead of the bushy mink tails used on
fur boas we shall see soft feather tas-
sells and ostrich boas during the com
ing season. They are dyed in all col
ors, but the prettiest combination is
white and yellow. A white feather col
larette has yellow tassels about eight
inches long, set around the bottom at
intervals of six or eight inches. There
is sort of jabot of yellow tassels in
front.
A very handsome black cape has
green tassels, which is a fashionable
combination now.
Out of pound of feathers containing
from 90 to so plumes about eight tas
sells can be made of the size described
on the white boa. 1t is a new indus.
try, but there are already 100 people al
work in the factory. The product is
called plume de saule. The manufac.
turers intend to use it in connection
with novelties in fur goods. There viii.
be ostrich tassels on fur mutfs and boas
and it is possible that we shall soon see
soft fabric woven out of the silver
threads.
Feather muffs with ostrich tassels
are being made to go with the Ostrich
boas. \ large firm in New York holds
the patent on this material, but it is
being scattered broadcast all over the
country, and there is every indication
that it will be the leading trimming
of the coming season.
In making this feather thread the
very best quality of plumes are used
as a poor grade would give stringy
fringe that is not pretty.-N. Y. Sun.

Those who have reached a point in
their journeying on wrong road where
they have lost their pride in a good
name are in a very dangerous position,
They are not far from the moral case

quaintance said to another:

he does not seem to think much of his

Little Gunner Pande, aged ten, of

with juvenile curiosity, examined the
eggs on his way home to satisfy him.

One OF the eggs appeared heavier
than the others and was slightly
cracked. This the urchin handed
over to his mother who, thinking it
might perhaps contain young bird
opened it. Her establishment can be
better imagined than described when
she found nickle five cent piece.

A Reaction Will Come.

No agitation of the silver question
had been made previous to the holding
of primaries with view of getting out
a majority vote of the republicans.
The actual fight on the issue was left
to the later convention. A certain
element had agreed to deliver gold
delegation to the national convention,
and the rank and file did not see fit to
make fight at the primaries for elect
ing delegates to the first convention.
The only surprise is, under the circum-
stances, that so large a silver element
bobbed up in the cut-anddried affair.

The Silver Issue.

A special correspondent of the Led
ger IN Washington city writes that the
consensus of opinion there is that the
Everett convention did not speak the
sentiments of the masses of the repub-
lican party of this state on the finan-
cial question. The Pr. assumes that
this is the opinion of our delegation
in congress, though the letter does not
so state, and intimates that our repre-
sentatives have been away from home
so long that they have failed to keep
in touch with the growth of the sound
money sentiment here. Our represent
atives probably know as we'll as the P
/. what the views of the Washington
republicans on the financial question
really are. At any rate, they have
been strictly in accord with the plat
form adopted at the Spokane conven-
ton, on which most of them were elect
ed, and they have no need to be anxi-
Gus about the record they have made.
They have carried out the instructions
of the people they represent, and if
the views of these people on this ques-
ton have radically changed, which is
by no means certain, their representa-
tives cannot and will not be held ac-
countable for it.
The Pr. further says that the con-
vention next fall will be quite as out
spoken on this question as the one at
Everett was. There is no reason why
the next state convention should make
any expression whatever on this or
any other national issue. Before it is
held. the national convention will have
declared the policy of the party on all
national issues, and the state con-
vention can consistently do nothing
but accept and approve this declara-
ton. Its business, 50 far as making
a platform is concerned, ought to be
confined entirely to declarations of
the party's intention with regard to
State matters. The candidates and
the party will be pledged already to
the national platform. What the
voters will want to know from the
next state convention will be what the
next republican state administration
will und ertake to do in such matter.
