gard the passage of this resolution
as nothing more than another salary
grab for which the Republican party
should be held responsible.

CHAIRMAN WASHBURN,

OF the Peoples Party National Commit
tee, Make. a Statement.
Chairman Washburn closed the
Chicago headquarters of the Peo-
pies Party National Committee last
week, and made the following state
ment concerning the election:
"As result of the present cam
paign we find victory in defeat. The
fact that so much was accomplished
in so short time with the limited
means, inspires the belief that we
can win four years hence. We were
confronted with united army and
an unparalleled campaign fund,
while our own forces were divided,
with secret foes in our midst, as well
as fusion difficulties and the ANAL
gamation of opposing forces to con-
tend with. Mr.. Bryan made the
greatest campaign record in politi-
cal history and stands unrivaled as
a leader Revolutions never go
backward, and the momentum of
this campaign will be continued by
the allied silver forces. l believe
this election will result in separat-
ing the gold chaff from the silver
wheat and force the traitors in the
silver ranks 20 unite with the Re-
publicans, where they belong. 1t is
worth all our efforts to shake of
these barnacles and start afresh with
renewed hope.
1--WE begin the congressional fight
of 1898 and the Presidential fight of
1900 tomorrow. We shall have a
conference of our national leaders
within a short time, when the plans
of the contest and the policy of the
future may be determined upon.
Let no one believe that silver is de-
feated. The movement is simply
purified and regulated. In new
form, with new hope and vigor, and
with the goldbug traitors eliminated
from the movement, we emerge from
this contest stronger than ever to
march forward to the victory that
awaits us.

A pleasing decree of fashion is
that the dinner-table must be attrac-

palate. The modern dinner-table in

plete in its appointments, whether
its owners are rich or poor. Refine
ment is never a question of money.
The well-laid table is fully equipped
before the dinner is served, and, If
a servant is wanting, forethought as
to spoons, forks, etc, will greatly
reduce the duties of the hostess, OF
