dant in Africa has been proftably util-
lied by French artisans, the leaves, it is
stated, furnishing 80 per cent of Il fiber
which is extensively used us cheap
substitute for horsehair, according to
the following process: The fiber is ex-
:racted either by hand combing or by
means of drums with needles and knives
worked by steam power. Tho green fiber
Is twisted or curled in its raw state and
finds several applications. The black
sort is at first dyed in baths of sulphate
of iron and logwood, then twisted and
again dyed. This fiber, it is alleged,
possesses two advantages over animal
fiber. which have led to its extensive
employment, it being exempt from in
sect destruction and some 75 per cent
less expensive than horsehair. There
are, 1t is said, large works in Algeria,
where the leaves are bought in large
quantities and the fiber cleaned on a
commercial scale. In Oran one factory

THE question of the business revival
is apparently like many questions of
politics and theology, varying with the
varying prejudices of those who exam.
inc and comment, Dunn's report for
last week says the revival is unprece-
dented, and the republican dailies
quote him under big flash head
lines. But Bradstreet's report is alto
gether different in cOlOring, and few
of them say anything about it. He
says: "JUbbers and other wholesale
dealers in general merchandise do not
report the anticipated increases in the
volume of goods distributed,th this week.
Relatively the heaviest demand
has been for dry goods, shoes and groc-
cries, but even in these lines, particu-
larry dry goods, the volume is smaller
than expected, and disappointment is
result. There has been a decrease
in the jObbing trade. In fact it is
slightly larger than a week ago, and in
most lines is tending to increase. The
many industrial enterprises which haye
started up continue a feature of each
days news bulletin, but there is rea-
son to believe the significance of these
exhibits has been over emphasized in
some instances. There were 30S
business failures in the United States
this week, fifty more than last week.
but fifteen fewer than in the CORE
spending week one year ago, thirteen
more than in the like week in 1894, and
fifty less than in the third week of No.
vember, 1893" 1t is very plain that
the promised business revival is not
materialiZing to any unprecedented
extent in any territory approximate to
Hutchinson at least. The revival of
business, we fear, will have to be
postponed till after Mckinley gets
comfortably seated. Then it will be
deferred till they get some legislation.
When they get the legislation we will
have to wait Till it has time to take eff
feet, and before it takes effect Bryan
will be president.

RECENT days seem to show that John
j. Ingalls, has an equally unique and
nondescript rival in the person of
Henri WatersOn thu gallant Kahn
lucky colonel' who conducted his cam
paign on Bryan and the regulators
from the house tops of Paris. During
the summer convention time he went
up into high mountain in Switzerland
and trained his thirteen inch baZoO
with such bOmbardment of lurid rhet-
Oric on the convention that chose Bryan
that by the light of the cOnhsgra-
too old man Palmer and his running"
mate Buckner, saw their way to a NOM
nation. Henri still has mis- artillery
in action but has changed its direction
somewhat. In a recent illumination
he said: in 1900 we were a few mil
millions of people and loved liberty.
In 1900 we are nearly hundred mil
lions of people and we love money"
Then he says further:
Let the East take TO itself the les
son of the South. In its concentration
Of the wealth of the country and in its
ostentatious display of this wealth, in
the gradual cultivation of caste, in
the tendency to hug its vast riches, and
in the finding of means to keep its mil
lions at home, let it behold a danger 1t
will do well to consider in the light of
both ancient and modern history, aud
if it has any real statesmen they can
not put their genius and resources to
better uses than by the construction of
policies which will bring them ALI
ances and make them friends-pOlicies
wise and broad, justifying in some
measure the unlimited accImulatlOns
they have been able to pile up in such
a relatively short compass of time
Those accretions notouly serve to breed
corruption among themselves, but they
unite against the simple rights of
property all the forces Of cupidity and
rapine, operating on agrarian and sec
tiODal lines.
This is almost as awful as John j.
ingalls, illusions on a social system
that offers to tender and yirtuous
woman the alternative between prosti-
tuition and starvation, etc." 1t is al
most ready to wear Pefferian whiskers.

symptoms of lunacy peculiar to COM

The Harvesting of Niagara proceeds
little by little, but surely enough. A
week ago Sunday a circuit was COM
pleted between the power generated
by the falling water at Niagara, and
Buffalo, by which power is to be fur
nished that CITY at the rate of $4,000
per horse power per year. 1t lis claimed
that only from five to ten per cent of
the power is lost in the transmission.
Now if that colored Chicago police
mans alleged discovery by which he
claims to be able to generate almost
any kind Of electrical power either for
lighting Or locomotion, out of certain
secret powder and a little water, don't
prove to be lie, Niagara will have a
chance to go on spreading the area of
country over which she spreads her
power unmOlested.

ers' Congress met in Indianapolis, and
all the gold papers heralded the tact
to the world that 1t, body represent
ing Of all classes one the most inclined
toward free coinage of of silver, had
declared for the gold standard. 1t
now transpires that this FARMERS
Congress" is body of men appointed
upon the same basis as the electoral
college, and chosen, not by the farm
ers, but by the governors of the vari
GUS States, and in most instances not
of practical farmers, but of those
whose practice is farming the farmers
Net only this, but those controlling,
railroaded all important measures
without discussion. 1t was part of
the purpose for which it was called to
declare as a majority of the governors
felt, for gold.

PROSPERITY may be- at hand but
there are altogether too many business
failures and closing factories to make
us feel just secure and certain that it
is going to creep into our pockets
Fridays State Journal brought news
of fifteen per cent reduction of wages
BY the Pullman Car Company, the
failure of the First National Bank Of
Sioux City, Iowa, the closing of East
st. Louis Packing COmpany's plant,
and the Alexander Smith Il Sons car
pet manufacturing company of Yon-
kers, New York, throwing 1000 men
out Of employment, and these are not
in Kansas either, also the failure of
the PrObst Construction Co., the one
which built the Worlds Fair Build
ings was included among the unfort-
unates. We would all be glad to believe
that the long heralded prosperity had
arrived, but some of us, at least, can
hardly do so yet.

FIGURES show that the democratic
ticket in Kansas received a large num-
Der more votes than the pops, In
Reno county it is claimed that the
Bryan and Sewall ticket received one
hundred and five more votes than the
Bryan and Watson ticket. Now of
course, republicans are bowling that
the democratic party has swallowed us
up. Well it makes little difference
anyhow as parties are now organized.
But the reason for this is obvious. In
the first place, about seven different
shades of disgust filled the breasts of
average populists at Tom Watson's
operations, and they didn't want to
compliment him vita a vote. In the
second place, a great many of them
voted the democratic ticket so as to
be sure aud avoid any ENHANCEMENT
over the miudle-of-the-road populist
ticket. Even some of the county CEN
trail committees gave such advice.
