A Great Physical Effort.

Like a member of d circus Bryan
has shown himself in 3S7 towns. He
has travelled yer 5000 miles and has
spoken 988, 600 words on the stump with
out convincing a single human being
thai we knew what he was talking
about. or that free coinage at IL to l
was anything but dishonest. Any
man who can talk forfveand Il quart
er hours a day without saying some
thing worth remembering is not even
a human monograph. His efforts are
lost as quickly as the rafting of the
wind is lost on a stormy night. AS a
physical effort Bryan's campaign is
unmatched. No lime museum freak
is within twenty miles of him. As a
statesman, a clearreasoner, alogician.
n who presents facts in a truthful,
manly and honest way, he is the most
dismalfailure we have ever had.-New
York Commercial Advertiser.

The Blue and the Gray,

The Confederate veteran is no more
inclined to anarchy than his Federal
antagonist of thirty years ago, and is
more than willing to join with the
Northerner in a common battle for
national honesty. On the other side,
there has been a disposition to meet
the South spmpathetically, to treat
the Southern sound money man, not
as a repentant sinner, but asan honor
ed ally in a noble cause No man has
done more to foster this cordial re-
lation than Maj. Mckinley himself

C~Ongenial spirits.

During n of his speeches out in
in Wisconsin the other day, Eugene
V. Debs threw back his head proudly,
struck his bullying chest, and shouted:

The shouts of pride and congratu-
lation had scarcely died out when a
more villianous looking man arose in
the gallery, and, initiating the voice
and manner of his great ~compatriot.
shouted:
I've been in jail, too.

The Honest, OId-Fashioned Demo-
Gratis,

Are not in the Bryan ranks, and
when the broken party RECEIVERS its
enses it will repudiate the Chicago
platform as the worst kind of pOliti-
cal heresy. The time to do this is
not far distant, and then the men who
have led the party in other days will
lead the party again.
For these reasons the Democrats of
the close Middle and Western States
should vote in a body for Mckinley
and sound money, while those in New
York State will vote for sound money
and Palmer and Buckner, and will be
prepared to build up the new Democ-
racy on the corner-stOnes of its old
time traditions.-New York Herald.

Saturdays will hereafter be a holiday in all shops west Of Fl Paso and east of Portland.
 The new rule will affect about 5000 men on inc entire system. lti Is an- bounced that the change is owing to dull busIness and that it will contiu- us until times revive.
 Manager Fillmore said yesterday This change is made to avoid dis charging or laying of number of men, It simply equslizes fortunes and distributes the loss among the total nunibsr of employees"

ON THE BORDER.
How Each One Becomes His
 Own Smuggler.

The Star has an interesting article from Nogsles and recounts the story of the saloon which lies in both re- publics. IL says:-
 As in the story of the "Oid Sjtua- tion" many unusual things happen in Nogales as might be expected in town which lies in two nations, undivided by a natural boundary or any other line than a business street. The line does not run along the middle of the street bat SO near the business houses on the United States side that a niche has been cut into one Of the houses to make room for g n international monu- men'. This house Is occupied ty Mir. ]. i. Brick wood who conducts saloon in !.. Ass a result of the circumstance that cigars are cheaper and rather better than other cigars, very few American or imported cigars are sold in Nogsles on either side. Mir. Brics- W Dod's place has been described in sew erai eastern papers as being divided by the line so that customers by stand ing at one end of the bar may he sery- ed with cigsIs and drinks of M-xican manufacture and at the other end with articles of American make. The description is erroneous, but MT. Brickwood has created an ingenious arrangement 10 meet the cigar emer- gency. Outside his door and within six fee. O: it, he has erected a strong box filled with Mexican cigsrs. None are kept in the house. Cus,omers are invited out fe the box which boipg unlocked they take the cigar cut with their own fngers. Thus every one be. comes his own smuggler and the custom laws of the southern republic are preserved intact.
 The money of Mexico prevails on both sides ai ;iis line 50 the extent that prices are always quoted in it and fl you offer an American piece on lhe American side you will be asked il yon want Mexican money in exchange.
