Women and Mems Clothes.

Ouida believes that, instead of going

The French horseman does not ride

the French army are better and more
serviceable than those in the United
States. The half bred barbs Of the
chasseurs are up to any amount of work.
and the heavier Norrnans and Bretons
Of the dragons and cuirassiers, although
perhaps too light for the weight they
carry, are splendid specimens Of horse
flesh. The French artillery-believed
elsewhere than in France to be the corps

The physique Of the personnel of the
field and horse batteries is superior TO
that Of the line, and the average eff

steel gun that it is armed with is a
most effective weapon-the fieldpiece
OF 80 NM, weighing 10 AZ hundred

horse artillery gun weighing g. SO hun.

The large number of batteries at

four guns TO 1000 infantry and cav

their artillery. The batteries as they
marched past presented an admira-
bic appearance. The old maxim of

nutely carried out as is the case with
the batteries Of the United States regu-

criticism, and everything pertaining to

II lived at little crossroads hamlet

was blacksmith shop there. In those
days the blacksmith s trade was noto-
riously good one All the blacksmiths
got rich with their horse, mule and OK

repair work which they did. Most of
the blacksmiths combined with their
other work wagon repairing and even

they would make wagons, and when
there was lots of transient work the
wagons had to wait. This state line
shop was a busy place. There was no
tavern there, but the blacksmith also
had cider press, and he made the cider
for all the farmers for miles around
But neither this nor the profits of his
shop could account for the rapid way
in which he accumulated wealth. As is
we'll known, apple cider, If allowed to
stand long enough, will become "hard, "
and after that it will turn into vinegar.
"This cider dealer always had plenty
of hard cider on hand, but never had
any vinegar for sale. The farmers and
others who stopped at his place could
always get drink of hard cider, which
they took out of tin dipper at 10 cents
a drink, and the size of the drink was
something which attracted very little
attention. Hardly any kind of beverage
is more Intoxicating than hard cider. 1t

it one day, and the next day you will
be awfully sick and sorry, and good
deal drunken than when you went to

to sell hard cider, and he worked the
game to the limit. His place became
very popular, and the farmers came
from many miles around in both states

STOC O 1897.

The question of southern stock
ers for northern ranges has already
commenced to receive some atten-
ton at the hands of the more
prominent cattle outfits. Hereto
fore most of the stock cattle for
the northwest ranges have been
purchased in Texas, but owing to
rigid and marked increase in the
price of this class of cattle in that
state the purchases last spring
were much smaller than those Of
previous years, many cattlemen
not purchasing at all. Following
IN the wake Of these decreased
southern purchases, the years
range shipments when summed up
show a falling off of about IT per
cent as compared with the year
before. This is no doubt partly
due to the decrease in spring pur-
chases caused by the advance IN
price made by Texas owners.
But the stocker problem FOR 'o7
bids fair 10 be more troublesome
than it was last year. Texas cat
tie owners seem to have the idea
that they can keep, fatten and
market at a profit the same class
Of cattle which the heretofore sod
as stockers for northern ranges,
and they probably can. At any
rate, they tack on an additional
hgure aud the northern cattleman
can buy or not, just as he chooses.

seems to be the condition confront
ing the northern buyer of stock
cattle this year.
In the event of a continuation Of
this policy on the part of the own
ers of southern cattle of this class,
there is but n sensible thing for
for the northern cattleman to do
and that is to raise his own stock
ers. This, of course, would mean
the outlay of considerable sum for
ranch Improvements for breeding
purposes, but the additional profit
through this method would more
than make it up. Furthermore,
this policy would mean a better
grade of cattle and consequently a
better price. The great northwest
will be stocking its own ranges in
side of five years-mark our pre-
diction.

OFF WITH THE MASKS.

The gold standard means cur
rency contraction. Currency con-
traction means suffering among
the common people. Tear off the
mask and let the policy of iniquity,
injustice and hardship be seen as
it really is. 1t has sailed under
the deceptive and pleasing name
of :'sound money already too
long. Like a treacherous murder
er who stabs his victim under 4
flag of truce, the gold standard has
led the people of this country
under a deceptive name and will
fatten off it's victim for another
four years.
The god standard means a vol
ume of money wholly inadequate
to transact the business of the
country. 1t means a volume of
money which cannot keep pace
with the increase in business and
population. 1t mean a money
which can be cornered and CON
trolled by a few men whose hands
are as uncallouscd by toll as those
of a babe in its mothers arms.
Tear off the masks, turn on the
light and let this misery-breeding
policy be seer in all its hideous-
ness! i means moTe-it means

affairs, i'll view of the result of the

ern republicsnism! So be it. Now

Mexico and other silver standard countries
: = there is great need of education and this
committee proposes to continue the fight for
honest money until the ranks of the free sill
yer and fiat money forces are so thin that
they will not be a barrier to industry and
prosperity.
This committee expects to take up at once
the work left off before election. 4 During
this winter and Spring we shall issue a page
of sound currency plates through the Amerl-
can Press Association and the A. N. Kellogg
Newspaper Co, = We will offer plates to
you free of cost if you will agree to pay

Very truly,
LAWRENCE E. SEXTON,
Chairman.
First, we wish to decline the lib
eral otter of free plate matter to
assist in futhering the foul conspir-
ators against the rights of a free
people and a republican form of
government. These piping gold
standard times make us rustic hard
to meet our bills but when We use
plate matter we will pay for it in
preference to prostituting our col
umns to the use of an element con-
spring against the welfare of a
long suffering people. No, Mr..
Sexton, we don't care for any of
your free plate matter.
Thus the gold element proposes
to continue the fight. fully realiz-
ing that the silver forces are not
vanquished or dismayed. They
have thrown down the gauntlet,
we have taken it up and there
must be no cessation Of our efforts
until the British gold standard and
every hireling who conspires for
its perpetuation in this country IS
crushed beneath the heel of public
condemnation.
