having carried the whole pageant through
without ever once calling it a carnival.
The wool schedule of the tariff seems to
have been full of burrs. but it was well
secured before the Senators finished
with it.
People who wish TO know how Ohio
will go in this election have only to mark
Hanna. He is leading the way and carry
ing the people with him.
The Queen may have been satisfied with
the voices of the jubilee, but the world
would have preferred 10 hear something
from Gladstone and Swinburne.
Everybody in London says it was the

1t is gratifying to know that the pro-
posal to make the Mechanics Fair this
year an occasion for thorough exhibit of
the pure foods of the State is likely to be
carried out with complete success. The
pure-food agitation should be kept up
until the battle is won, and the proposed
exhibition will have a good effect in re-
newing popular interest in the subject and
strengthening the cause in the public
mind.
According TO the New York Tribune
Vermont farmers are complaining that
deer are so thick it is impossible to keen
them out OF the felds.' This NAV be a

that the item should have been paid for
at advertising rates.
In making his proposal for the appo1nt-
ment by the Government of committee

care to venture suggestion.

throughout the United States and Europe
