Inc outrageous extravaganza
which has run rampant in the state

when one comes to look over the fig
ures that are being published.

These tables show that, notwith-
standing there has been no change in
the salaries provided for by the con
sttutlon for state officers, and no
change in the duties of their offices.
that there has been an enormous in
crease in expense. This increase of
over $50, 600 is chiefly clerk hire,
postage and incidentals.
The appropriations for 1891 we're
high enough, and under Wiley there
was surplus left from the appro-
priation. Notwithstanding the $50. =
COP extra it cost us to have Palouse
Bill in the chair there still comes a
shortage. That is a sample of the
way the goldbug crowd run things.
Beware of them and their allies. Put
clean and honest men into Office.
Frank Steunenberg as governor, and
good Legislature, will reduce the
the state expenses back to the amount
OF the economical first two years of
statehood.

have dollar instead OF half dollar If
the dollar can purchase no more than the
half dollar?
He believes in low prices for the
farmer, as all gold men do. Read
his remark again The use in having
Il dollar instead of n half dollar is
that the farmer will only need to get
half as many in order to pay off his
mortgage and settle his taxes BY
the same rule that one kind of dol
lar will only purchase half us much,
the producer will have to give up but
half as much of his products to set
tie his debts
Men on salaries will scarcely hope to
have their salaries doubled. even nomi-
nally, and then their salaries. such as
they may be- will have only half the pur-
chasing power they have today The
only men bencfiied-and they are few
today, and il is scarcely worth while TO
bring around revolution in the country
to benefit them-are the debtors who have
today gold on hand and who by free sill
yer coinage will have their store doubled
IN nominal value and will be enabled to
reduce their debts by one-half
Men who labor are men on sal
aries If the dollar decreases in
purchasing power it will buy less la
Dor If products increase in pur-
chasing power and will buy more
dollars, labor, which is product,
will buy more dollars. Whoever saw
high priced farm products without
everything else being in proportion.
While they are constantly harping
that with everything equally low the
condition is no different than when
everything is high, they persstently
overlook that colectable paper. pa
per which calls for dollars in cur.
rency or in property, (notes, bonds,
mortgages do not fall and when
everything is high they are easier
settled because it takes less of prop
erty, products or labor to represent
the dollars they call for. That is
the whole secret-the men who own
gold or collectabe paper want it to
represent more property, products
and labor
He says silver coinage will double
the value of gold Not so. 1t will
decrease because the prelate himself
says the dollar will decrease in pur-
chasing power He says the gold
holders debts would be decreased
one-half and they are the only few
who would he benefited. He said
farm products would increase in
value. Would not those who settle
their debts i'll farm products have
their debts decreased and be benefit

FAIR FLEMISH WOMEN.

A recent traveller in old Flanders
says that the Flemish women are tall,
md that they possess great beauty.
Their eyes are usually blue, their hair
is like FURNISHED gold, which they
wear as did the German gods.
The Flemish woman is simple to ex-
cess; not because she has poor taste in
her toilet; on tho contrary, Flemish
woman never goes out on Sunday
without heavy silk dress, with soft
frou-frou marking her steps.
The Flemish woman has preserved
intact the admirable naivete of the
woman of the middle ages. She is an
ideal mother of n family; she has no
ambition, no love for art, for music or
for poetry; not whisper OF rebellion
against the domination-- often brutal
ity-of her husband, who, in her eyes,
represents power, aud for whom she
cherishes an admiration which cannot
be shaken. New York Commercial
Advertiser.

Nainsooks, with gold effects in
stripes and squares, will be used to
trim basques, blouses, shirt waists,
etc.
The waistcoat effect is greatly in
vogue this spring, and much OF the
style and effect of the waist lie given
by it.
The fancy gauzes will be used for
evening waists. They require to be
lined with silk or satin, bat look very
light and effective.
New leather bicycling and outing
belts are shown, with both purse and
chatelaine attached, Pntent-leather
belts, with buckles to match, are also
new.
Gold and silver belts of every vari.
ETY. are selling amazingly. These are
shown both in tinsel and military
braids and in the plated and coiled

like. The black chiffon capes are al
most all relieved by touches ofcolored
ribbons and beaded ruffles

Clerk Turns CObbler.

History records that many cobblers

Flynn, whose cozy homo in this city
IS ut Lexington avenue and Tooth

bier because he is philosopher. Mr..
Flynn, having had commercial train.

house, but although he is in the pos
session Of fairly good salary he some
times finds 1t necessary to economize
in order to maintain his interesting
family Of seven children, who repre-
sent seven different ages and sizes. 1t
is for this reason, and because Mr..
Flynn possesses n natural mechanical
aptitude, which enables him to "tin-
ker" successfully, that, after his days

for the entire family.
"Hhe expense OF shoeing q family of

not pretend to compete with the more
fashionable bootmaker, you will see,
by looking at the children's footwear,
that it compares favorably with, and
| can guarantee it superior in durnbil-
ity to, the store bought article, wher-
ever manufactured. My attention was
first called to the possibility of this
economy, which is now n real pleasure
to me, by observing the employees in
factories, who, when their shoes are
down at tie heels or in need of repair,
tnke out their knives, whip off piece
of old betting, tack it on their shoes
aud trim it up in a jitfy. In this way
they save themselves annually consid-
erable expense.
Having thus laid down the pream-
BILE and resolutions of the art of shoe

before him the smlll army of little
FIynns, who proved to be not only
substantially but handsomely shod.

attention of the folks around Croiton,

Lebanon. The mother OF the curl

has the appearance OF auy common
place calf with the exception OF the
coat, which is as woolly as that OF n
sheep. 1t Is perfectly healthy, and
Mr.. West has been offered good sum
for it, but refuses to part with it for
the present.
Another curiosity of another sort is
