The Coming Prosperity.

The St. Louis Republic, a leading
paper of that city and silver Demo-
cratic in it's politics, makes the occa-
sion of the visit of the South Ameri-
can business delegation one for
showing the advantages of st. Louis
as a commercial city. In doing so,
it states that whatever gloom that
delegation may find elsewhere they
will find none in St. Louis. They
will find that city rejoicing over an
encouraging record of business for
the last six months. The sales of
the wholesale houses were immense
and the prospect for the coming
season exceptionally good. 1t goes
into details of the increase of bank
ing business and clearances to prove
it. When politics is left out, this
is the general verdict. Business is on
the gain and the only trouble is that
1T is the partisan interest ofsome one
to ignore or deny the fact. They do
their best to keep up the everlasting
squawk about hard times. They are
hard enough, but they are lettering.
Why not admit that much? And
the way to aid in the Improvement
which every one most heartily desires
for the common good of all, is not
to discountenance, hinder ard deny
the hoped for gain. Come out like
The Republic and state the truth.

E. D. Coz, chairman of the Repub-
lican State Central committee, in his
pa per, The Whitewater Regist er, last
week had few pertinent remarks on
the Hall pass resolution about which
there is so much noise being made by
Democratic journalists. Mr.. Coe re-
resolution came before the conven-
ton, and shows that the resolution
was not in order when first presented,
as Mr.. Hall confessed the next day,
and when it did come up after all
other business was done it was not
looked upon as regular, but as an
act of respect to Mr. Hallit was voted
upon simply, as he said, TO get an ex-
preston of opinion. Very few if any
of the delegates considered it a part
of the real work of the convention,
or that it would be binding on the
men who should be elected to the
legislature, and it is doubtful if Mr.
Hall thought it thus binding or a
part of the platform. We were
delegate to that convention and
we are opposed to the pass business,
especially as it applies to public
officers, but we had no feeling that
Mr.. Halls resolution had any bear
ing as feature of the platform.
The vote was simply an expression
of the opinions of the individual
members of the convention. Those
virtuous editors who make so much
fuss about this matter, with good
passes in their pockets probably,
and if not would be glad to get some,
will do themselves a favor by reading
Mr.. Goes article, and then spending
few minutes in earnest, honest
meditation, and probably they will
feel better, and the chances are they
will write better, at least on this sub
iect-Lake Mills Leader.

VASSAR GIRLS FOOD.

Immense Quantities of Provisions De-
voured at the College.
A New York Mail and Express report
er has discovered a downtown house
shat rejoices in the honor of supplying
the sweet Vassar girls with what they
eat It is quite a serious affair, the
educated appetites of these young la
dies. They have increased steadily the
past five years, and the merchant who
furnishes "a few figures says that il
the increase goes on it will be neceS-
sary to include the daily food purchases
of the college in the market reports
to see what effect they may have on
prices. This merchant would not give
his own personal figures, but he ex-
hibited an annual statement of the
college that has just been issued.
What will Boston culture and other
things esthetic say to an army of young
women who will so far forget all con-
ventionalism as to eat 1885, 600 buckwheat
cakes in one year? Nothing surrep-
titious about this either. All done
openly and above the table board. Look
ing along the list it will be found that
the young ladies consumed $50 barrels
of -four, 10000 oranges and lemons,
$4,000 bananas, 10000 quarts of milk,
1900 bushels of potatoes, $4,000 pounds
of fresh meats, 10000 pounds of smoked
meats, 5000 pounds of chickens, 5000
pounds of turkeys, 5000 pounds of fish.
10000 CLAIMS, 10000 gallons of oysters,
$4,000 pounds of butter, and last, but
not least, by any means, in Vassar
girls composition, $4,000 pounds Of
sugar.
In the above no allowance is made,
it will be noticed, for the stolen fruits"
such as forbidden luncheons and candy
smacks after retiring. nor is any atten-
ton paid to the tea, coffee, vegetables
and sweetmeats. Surely these young
ladies have educated appetites.

The American Girl.

A new note has been struck in the
ever-popular theme of the American
girl: "There is no typical American
girl; there are many types, but no
one type that can be regarded as
national" This is the conclusion
arrived at by those who have made
a serious study of the subject and
this view is exemplified by the artist,
j. Wells Champney, in his collection
of pastels representing "Types OF
American Girlhood," exquisite repro
uctions of VIII ch Illustrate 1rm-
ing article in Demorest's Magazine
for August, entitled a study of the
American Girl" And there are more
characteristic pictures of American
girls in the handsome Illustrate n to

which furnishes much inte estine
information about the world-famous
summer-school. In thes same number
beautiful illustrated article, ga

there might be some extraordinary circumstances justifying a devia- tiOn from the rGie. This is not be. cause he has not high opinion of
 the ex officials, but because he
 thinks others should now have an
 opportunity to share in the party
 honors.
 The vacancies in the Senate com-
 mittees are worrying the opposition
 more than they are the Republi- cans although the latter are perfect ly willing that they should be filled, but so tonga the opposition cannot agree to vote together and assume the responsibilities of the majority, the Republicans very naturally object to allowing the Democrats who are only one faction of the majority, to dictate how those va sancies shall be filled. Although not in d majority, the Republicans were given the important chair manships of the Senate during the last Congress, and they now insist upon the vacancies being filled so as to give them control of the i'm portant committees or not at all, unless the opposition chooses to and reorganize all the on a silver basis bv taking the chairmanships away from the Republicans

Immigration Commissioners.

The law creating the board of immigration commissioners of Ari- zona finds one of it's strongest re- commentators in the compilation of statistics of the commissioners of the respective counties, which have been embodied in the report of the governor to the secretary of the interior. One of the objects in creating this board of commissioners was to establish an official and reliable resource of statistical in formation of the respective counties, with view of aiding the governor in securing reliable data for his annual report to the secretary of the interior, of the resources of wealth, which going out to the Country at large, through his an nual report. would be accepted as reliable, on account of the official sanction of the the chief executive of the Territory.
 Another object was 10 give every section of the Territory an oppor- tunity of being heard, through this channel of information, it being conceived that commissioner in each county, interested in it's well fare, would give a good report of the advantages which his county possessed, thus supplying the Gov ernor with information from every sectron of the Territory. The value of this feature or object of the law is strikinely apparent in the report referred to. Not only in the in dividual reports of the commis- sioners, which are published as an appendix to the general report, but the value of this information is seen all through the governors views and observations on the Territory. Added to all this, the report IS profuse with attractive illustra- tions, suggestive of the conditions, both natural and artificial, which will arrest the attention of the reader and give good returns.
 This one result of the work of the commissioners of immigration of Arizona shows it's great value in one line of the duties prescribed There are other lines of still greater advantage to the respective counties which must be apparent to those who have studied the law and it's full purpose. The failure of the legislature to repeal this beneficent law, reflect credit on the judiciary committee of the council, which stood as veritable wall of granite agail the p'r n ing ic' n oclastic spirit which ran riot through both bodies of that boodling aggregation of shame and disgrace to the name of Arizona.
