THE. sentence imposed on Miss
Flagler or Washington, who shot a
negro boy in August OF last year,
will surely be adversely commented
upon by the different journals of the
country. Her crime, SO the Judge
sentencing her considered, could be
condoned by Imprisonment for three
hours ia the Jail and fine of five
hundred dollars. This it seems to
us, is a mere parody on justice. 1t
were better to have let her off with
out any punishment whatever than
TO have established precedent of
this description. Moreover, if ne
gro boy, aged eight, is worth only
FIVE hundred dollars, an able bodied
man servant of forty years will be
found to be worth twenty five hun
dred, They are hardly worth max
ing at that price.

The Silver Party of Nevada has
on several occasions tabooea The
Populist-notably at its last State
convention. The only representa-
tive of that party in Congress is
Francis G. Newlands, the man whom
the Southern Esmeralda League
dubbed as a man possessing no other
qualification than that of a sack.
Stewart was elected q Silver Party
candidate out and out; he now poses
as Pop. alias Huntingtons right
hand man, who stands by and listens
with approval to c. P defame
Nevada J. p Jones on the Com
mittee of Resolutions of the recent
conference of bimetallists held in
Washington City among other things
said.
We hold that the power to control
and regulate paper currency Is IN
separabe from the power to com
money, and hence that all currency
intended to circulate as money
should be issued and its volume con
trolled by the General Government
only, and should be legal tender.
He also is Pop pure and simple,
,who espouses the cause of rag money
with an avidity becoming a Weaver
The votes of the four Silver Repub-
lican Senators on the tariff substi-
.tute has caused a greater sensation,
and more CONSERVATION among the
leaders of the Republican party than
all the Pops. and rag money fellows
in the world. 1t is threat, a dan
ger signal along the party track
which will be averted. Dingley, of
the Ways and Means, sounded the
true doctrine, an immediate confer
ence OF nations friendly to silver,
and against this proposition every
Pop1list and silver Democrat will be
sure to speak and vote.

BUSY QUEEN VICTORIA.
Very Conscientious About Letter Writing
How She Gets the Daily News.


How She Gets the Daily News.
Queen NictOria's private letters num-
Der many hundreds every year. She
writes TO her numerous relatives, forget
ting no anniversary or occasion on which
letter might be welcome. The London
Chronicle says that to the younger mem
bers of the royal family she never fails
to send birthday gifts, accompanied by
a few loving words of greeting. Every
day the birthday book is consulted-not
that birthday book i'll which singers,
actors and other personages are asked to
write, but that smaller volume reserved
for relatives and intimates. Then therc
are numerous letters of scmiprvatc
nature which are written by the queen
herself-lcttcrs of coincidence, letters of
congratulation TO brides who have been
connected with the court, letters to for
clgn monarchS. Besides all these ops-
ties, written III the blacklist of ink on
paper slightly edged with black, there
arc thousands which are pcnncd by the
private secretary and his assistants.
The queens day begins early and ends
late. After breallfast-a meal which She
still enjoys eating in the open air when
possible-there are the newspapers and
private correspondence claiming atten-
ton. With regard to the former, por-
tions of The Times and other Journals
arc read aloud TO the queen by lady
specially appointed for this purpose.
Very rarely does the queen comment on
the news, except in the case of Il calam-
ity, when her sympathy is quickly cx-
pressed i'll telegram. Inaccuracy in in
important newspaper as toroyal matters
gives the queen grave annoyance, and
The Chronicles writer has known an
official to call and complain of tho mis-
statement and demand rectifcation.
Not long ago an illustrated London pa
per gave a picture in which her majesty
was represented as holding tho arm of
her Indian attendant. Within a short
space OF time member of the ROYAL
household called on the editor to state
the .absurdity of such an error. ''rhc
queen is much annoyed at this mistake
on the part of your artist, as it might
give grievous oifense to important per-
sons i'll India. She could never take the
arm of servant - This will show how
closely she watches oven the pictorial
press. When good illustration appears
of any state function, it is common
incident for tho artist to be requested
to visit the queen, very likely to receive
IL commission.

1.-The fitting of glasses in hyperme-

tween amblyopia without optical lesion

ton whether muscular defects are due to

plainly that the fitting of glasses to eyes

and training make him competent to deal
with these questions, which even to his
mind are sometimes difficult if not i'm.
probable. Beware of so called opticians.

KANSAS ,IrY. Mo, Aug. l4.--Owing
to the act ons of the railroa Is in the
grain rate war the grain busin IS In
Kansas c ty, Kan, is prac icsly at Il
stsudsIill. Although thousands Of
bushels Of grain pass through Kansas
City daily not one bushel Of grain is
bought here, but shipped on to st.
Louis and h cago on account OF the
discr mlnating rain rate against
Kansas City from al points IN Kan
sas an Nebraska. The grain men
have succeeded in having their COM
plant placed l'efore the railroad COM
miss oners at Top'k,, but no action
has leen taken by that body as yet.
What the local grain men are afraid Of
ut the present time is that when
. REIMBURSEMENT Of rates takes place,
which would be beneficial to Kan.
sas City, Kan, the surplus crop Of
last year and the enormous crop Of this
year will have been moved and the
city will not derive any benefit from
the change Of rates ut q later date
Local mills are unable to stop the
grain here and mill it in transit, which
Is Gripping the milling industry, and
some OF the big mills here may have
to close down,
