Free coinage advocates find little en-
couragement when they compare the re-
suits of the late election with those of a
corresponding date in previous political
cycles. In Ohio, Nebraska, Iowa, Ken
lucky, Virginia, and Massachusetts, and
the Democratic platforms ma de the sill
yer issue as prominent in the elections of
1897 as in 1896. In every one of those
States the falling off in Democratic votes
as compared with the preceding Presi-
dental election was greater than was the
case in the election of 1898, the year fol-
towing the Presidential election in which
genuine Democratic principles of free
trade were the issue. The Democrats of
these six States in 1898 stuck to legitimate
1892, while in 1897 they reiterated their
free silver doctrines of 1896. The result
was that in Ohio they lost in 1897 16 per
cent. of their vote of the preceding year,
against a loss of II per cent. in 1893; in
Iowa the loss in 1897 was 10 per cent, in
1898 II per cent. in Kentucky in 1897 the
loss was IA per cent, in 1894 (there being
no election in that State in 1889 6 per
cent. in Virginia in 1897 % per cent, in
1898 81 per cent. in Massachusetts, in 1897
"a per cent, in 1898 II per cent. in Ne
braska in 1897 a loss of II per cent.
against an actual gain of IS per cent. in
1898. Not very encouraging to new doc
trines, eh?

senators rettigrew, Mantle and Dubois
should hasten their reports on the true
condition of goldridden Japan in time to
warn the Chilian statesmen who are now
buying gold in London preparatory to
carrying cut their plan for a change in
monetary standard. But perhaps their
report is not as favorable to silver as they
expected.

Nj Bryan made no effort during his
four Yeas in Congress to obtain legisla-
tiou on the subjects which he now so
uproariously supports as the chief fea-
rures Of his political faith He had not
a word to say about arbitration, govern
ment by injunction, antitrust legislation,
OF any Of the other subjects on which he
now appeals to the public. But of course
he indolses all of them now that the par y
advocates them.

Not one of the thirteen countries which
offered protests against our new tariff
has excluded any American products be-
cause their protests were unheeded In
stead of shutting out our products the
thirteen protesting countries have ncreas-
ed their purchases of our products twenty
i've per cent. while we have, under the
operations of the Dingley law, reduced our
purchases from them in Ike proportion.

The new tariff law presents It's compli-
ments TO its trainers on their return to
Washington with an evidence of steady
growth in earnings. They were in August
$40, 023 GA, in September 81, 933, 09S,
in October 81, 39i, 415, and II November
80, 600, 600. That is a steady, healthful
growth, which indicates that long before
its first year has ended it will be produc-
Ing the promised surplus.

few carols are deeply dogmatical and
metaphysical, but with these we will not
trouble our readers. The monastic doc
trine of the sinfulness of the coniugal
union may be found in most of them, and
in one instance is given with extreme
grossness, and is a SANDER on every human
mother, Mary excepted. Others warn us
to be merry with temperance and sobriety,
an admonition appropriate to all times
and seasons. But as the centuries rolled
on, the high significance of Noel, the dies
1atalis of Christ, became secondary to
profuse eating and drinking. Beef and
pudding were more thought of than the
self sacrificing life of the Man of Sorrows.
The tender plaintiveness that chastened
the JOY of the old carols was succeeded
by coarse and boisterous spirit of revel-
ry and vulgar debauch, as though Jesus
were Bacchus. Hence,
Hark! how the roofs with laughter sound!
Anon they'll think the world goes round;
For they the cellars depth have found,
And there they will make merry
One, however, says:
This feast is to relieve the poor,
And not to drunken Bacchus.

cans are to be told, presumably in their
native tongue, how much better off they
are tn free-coinage system, in which

buy an article which one silver dollar
under the limited coinage system of the
United States will buy, and on his return
to the United States Mr.. Bryan is to ex-
plain to the people of this country the
advantages which would come to them by
exchanging our currency system, with its
% one hundred cent dollars per capita,
for the Mexican system of 5 forty cent
dollars per capita. The public will anx-
iously await this somewhat remarkable un
ertaking of this somewhat remarkable

Mckinley times are evidently appreciat-
ed by the people of Kansas, who have re-
turned her to the column to the Republ-
can States, the plurality of the party in
that State being this year over 1900,
against Democratic plurality of over -,
600 in the election of 1896.
Spanish prisons il Cuoa have given up
every American citizen within their walls
since the incoming of the Mckinley admin
istration. And yet there are people who
have the assurance to complain of the
attitude of the administration in regard
to Cuba.

HE SPOILED THE DEAL.
A Youngster Was Too Ready to
Tell What He Knew.

1t don't do for anyone, especially one
who is selling goods, to tell all he feels
and knows. Something should be kept
in reservation. 1 have a grandson who
illustrates the point. A man drove up
to the store the other day and hailed
me with: Il hear your son has a horse
to sell?'
Yes" said I. HE has a fine little
bay mare he would part with"
Fetch her OUT" said he.
We went back to the barn, followed
by 3year-old Jim, my grandson. The
mare was brought out, and the visitor
was quite taken with her. He asked
her age, looked her over, found out
the selling price, and then asked:
Any bad habits?"
NO" said I, promptly.
Young Jim stood with his hands in
his pockets, his legs apart, and his hat
on one side. AS 1 answered he looked
up, and in a shrill voice, exclaimed:
She balks."
She does, sonny?" said the man.
That's a good boy, always tell the
truth"
The kid doesn't know what he's
talking about" said L Sometimes she
SHES, and that's what he means
Young America turned an Indignant
eye on me. Now, grandpa, You know
she does. Didn't dad build a fire un-
der her to make her go?'

and gave him nickel
You don't want her?' I said.

Dainty BELONGINGS.

Certain peoples bureau drawers, for
instance, diffuse an atmosphere of re-
tinement that is partly exquisite neat
ness and order, partly the faint per-
fume of rose or violet, and very largely
a natural gift. A layer of thin sheet
wadding covered above and below with
cheap silkoline or silesia, caught
through the center with a small bow of
ribbon to match, and finished at each
corner with the same, makes an at
tractive lining for drawers, and is an
encouragement to keep ones belongings
in order.
Boxes of various sizes and shapes are
also a valuable aid to this end, and it
is not difficult to accumulate a stock
of quite pretty ones. A lack of outside
charms can be yelled by deft fingers
with coverings of plush or velvet or old
brOcade, and the finishing-touch of a
monogram worked on the lid leaves
nothing to be desired. The wandering
propensities of gloves and handker-
chiefs can thus be held in check, and
ones sweetness and light not too heav-
lily taxed by having to seek them in
haste
The bureau itself, if low and broad,
can be made attractive with very little
expenditure. A sheer organdie muslin,
with a pattern of roses and leaves,
makes a beautiful cover for it, lined
with pink silesia, and trimmed at the
corners with rosettes of the narrowest
ribbon in pink, green and brown. The
round pin-cushion to match has an air
of elegance quite independent of a
money basis.
On this foundation prettily wrought
metal boxes that are quite inexpensive
show to great advantage; and a pair
Of china candlesticks, with painted
roses, holding pale pink candles, make
the prettiest of finishing-touches
Some peoples smallest properties
seem to express an individuality of
their own-their very bags, paper
knives, and pen-handles characterize
them in some way. In nothing, per-
haps, is this so strongly accentuated as
in the matter Of perfume whiff of
rose petals or of orris root has the
daintiest Of associations; but the over
powering altar of roses or violet per-
fume affects the cultivated sense as a
glaring color does the eye or discord
the ear.-Harpers Bazaar.
