what a progressive and euthusias-
tic promoter of education the gov
ernor is and what undreamed of
miracles he will continue to per-
form if only granted time and OPP
portunity. The teachers will, in
considerable numbers, become
imbued with the instructors ideas
and readily communicate them to
the good people with whom many
of them board or otherwise come
in contact. We are pleased to
note that Republican senators are
opposing this measure but it is
little more fagrantly political than
some they are supporting. In the
presence of this systematic effort
on the part of the administration
to construct, at public expense,
stupenduous political machine
whose ramifcations shall reach
out into every hamlet and pre-
cinct, and have power to influence
every class of people-a machine
that will employ dozens of politi-
cal experts paid by the taxpayers
in this presence, after a ques-
tionable alliance had been formed |
to prevent it, is there not Just
for critizing with severity
Republicans who countenance

The look in a woman's face is expressive
Of what she is. One can easily tell whether
she is healthy, wealthy, happy or sickly.
Nothing adds more to a woman's attractions
than a pleasant face and this is something
all can have or easily acquire. It's simply
obtained by cleanliness, air, light, diet, eXer-
else.
Many q woman is continually cross, mo-
rose. weak, nervous, ailing; made so by the
exNetions of household careg, or the COndi-
Ciitions incident to her sex. But back of this
and the cause of all the trouble, will be
found that the system is out of order the
blood needs toning up. When this is done
there follows, buoyancy of feeling, and
merry household.
The preservation of a woman's graces and
charms requires care and common sense, but
nOmore than is bestowed upon her fine laces,
bric-a-brac, etc. The good wife keeps the
silver from tarnish, but neglects herself
Every woman desires to be "picture of
health" and she can be, for it is only mat
ter of health, rather than regular features or
perfect proportions, for without the vitality
Of good spirits which good health denotes, no
woman is charming.
Many a woman is respectfully watching the
growing pallOr of her cheeks, the coming
wrinkles, the thinness that becomes more
distressing every day. The best way to over
come this and acquire the pleasant look in a
woman's face is expressed in the following
story told by Mrs. A. Fox, an esteemed resi-
dent Of New Hampton, Mo.

troubles set in. 1 had very little appetite, |

IT IS understood that Mr.. lake
Horn, of the Caldwell Record
has been promised the appoint
ment of commissioner of statistics
labor and immigration, if the bill
pass. We heartily congratulate
MIR. Horn and, if the bureau be
established, sincerely hope he may
become its presiding officer. A
knowledge that he expects the
appointment, is almost enough to
induce support Of a measure,
which upon its face deserves con-
demnation. Through his varied
experience, wide acquaintance
and ability as a writer, Mr.. Horn
would certainly come nearer to
making such bureau of tapgibIe
value than any other admininis-
fratlcn man in the state. The
salary is liberal, as it should be, if
a man of ability is expected to
conduct the office. Whatever
influence the TRIBUNE NAV bo,.o
with Governor Steunenberg-but
we fear it is all slightly impaired
will be cheerfully exerted to
assure the appointment of Mr..
Horn.

lie expense. 1t was claimed with
out the alliance this could not be
accomplished; that unless the Re-
publicans entered into an arrange
ment with the Populists the Dem
ocrats would do SO, and thus rend-
er the Republicans powerless for
good. The argument had some
force and it was hoped and ex-
pected that those who favored the
alliance would carry out the pro-
gramme strictly, 1t was expect
ed that the Republicans and Pop
ulists would work together upon
prearranged caucus plans; that
they would present a solid and
harmonious opposition to political
measures, and that no important
action would be taken without a
thorough understanding and
agreement. But, unfortunately,
the alliance had scarcely been con-
summated before some Republi-
cans began to exhibit a DISPOSE
ton to violate its terms. It seems
that they considered that they had |
satisfied every legitimate require
ment upon making a fair division
of the spoils; yet, they at first in
sisted that in effecting the alliance
nothing was more out of their
minds than any though of spoils.
1t was but a short time before the
vote began to scatter,
and under circumstances justify
ing a suspicion that the action
came in response to local interests.
The Populists were not a little in
aignant at the course pursued by
he Republicans and, we have it
IN good authority, protested Wig
orouslyI The action of Repub-
lean senators can be best under
stood when particular instances >
ire cited. A bill was introduced
supporting to have in view the !
Improvement of the navigation of
ivers and their tributaries in the E
tate of Idaho. This measure j
would give to individuals or cor |
fifteen years exclusive $
to the use of any stream q
hey might desire to control. Fer a
ppearance sake it contained a c
revision permitting any one to r
Sc such stream upon the pay t
lent of toll, but that, in practice e
'ould be a valueless privilege; n
u, as soon as any Improvement v
as begun upon stream, prepar- fl
ion would be made for logging g
a an immense scale, and when Il

poles and such tor their use; tn,
small mills would be obliged t.
close down; the best timber land'
of the state would soon be ex-
> hausted, and all under the direc-
: ton, at its inception, of a Demo
cratic administration. There il
. no doubt private interests are
connected with this scheme which
need not here be explained. The
political advantages are quite APP
parent. The individuals and cor
porations seeking franchises would
be treated according to their po-
litical affinities; those obtaining
the most valuable franchises would
very likely be good Democrats,
under moral and business obliga-
tons to make good showing for
Democracy at the next election.
Under the provisions of the bill,
the land board will regulate tolls
and a concern that can furnish
couple of thousand of votes is not
likely to be mistreated by the
!
board that grants the franchise.
Notwithstanding the dangerous
tendency and the political posi-
bilities of this bill, nearly all the
Republican senators voted for it,
which was, at least, rather sur,
prising if not entirely suspicious.
Next, a bill was introduced to es-"
tablish the office of state examiner
to which Senator Church lent the
influence of his name. The off
Ger was to be appointed by the
governor and his duties under the
bill would be to examine the Off
ces Of county officers all over the
state once year and, originally,
the financial condition of
banks. This latter clause was
thrown in probably as a make
weight and a blind. The officer
was to receive a good salary and
travelling expenses. 1t will read
lily be seen what a powerful po-
litical agent the right sort of a
man would be. He could not fail
to find serious and damaging ir-
-egularities in every county office
occupied by a Republican or Pop ,
llist, and he would be bound to
observe the ability and integrity I
prevailing among Democratic Off t
,ers. OF course, in the language :
If his reports, he would be very t
oath to do it and it would be very t
but he would not dare c
hirk his duty or violate his solemn il
'ath. Republican senator's are t
eriously disposed to support this h
ill which is shrewdly designed to e
arass and libel Republican coun- S
Y officers and glorify Democrats. ii
here is also another political c
1easure which is receiving Re- il
ubllcan support in the senate. {
is bill for the establishment of b
bureau of labor, statistics and b
immigration and the appointment, ?
y the governor, of a commits c.
oner to run the bureau. This "
gent will come in contact with te
Il classes of people and may be- d
ome an effective Democratic te
visionary. He will go among m
re farmers, horticulturalists, min OF
s, laborers, stockraisers and in
echanics in quest of data. He W

e state. He will tell them of la

and promotive of Democratic sue
cess. Upon the face of it doe
this look like a measure worthy
of Republican support? Again
it is reported, not mere rumol
either, that a Republican senator
has entered into a wagon roac
deal with the governor, whereby
an effort is to be made to pass al
the wagon road appropriation bills
pending with the understanding
that the governor will veto all OF
them except the measure desired
by this particular senator. The
politics behind such a scheme is
too apparent for anything. 1t is
simply a gubernatorial play for
Mormon favor and in addition a
scheme whereby the governor
could get all those appropriation
bills in his own hands to be used
as a club to compel various refac-
tory delegations to dance to his
music. OF course, his excellency
would in the end be obliged to
veto all of those bills, not on ac-
count of any lack of merit but for
constitutional and technical rea-
sons which could not be overcome.
AS an evidence of the political
of the measures to
which reference has been made,
an examination OF other but SINH
lar measures is necessary. The
state already has one mine in
5pector which is great plenty for
al legitimate purposes but evil
lently insufficient for political pur-
poses, so a bill was introduced to
,reate three or four more. A bill
las been introduced to create an
Ill inspector, and one to reSurrect

AIRY liberal appropriations and

Sexton ana Undertaken is the sign
USUALLY found affixed to or near the
New York churches, but it does not
mean that the sexton actually conducts
gn undertaker's establishment. He
merely contracts for the funerals OF the
members Of the congregation and sub
lets the work to what are known as
wholesale undertakers who attend to
this class of work exclusively.
A 30 per cent commission Is the sex
ton share of the proceeds, and, taking
into consideration the large member
ship of some of the New York churches
and the elaborate funerals that take
place almost daily. it can readily be
seen that to be sexton is an honorable
calling-for it is business that brings
in the coin. The profits of sexton IN
one of the large down town churches are
estimated at $40, 600 annually from his
funeral business alone. Weddings are
not so profitable. but they do fairly well
and are cheerful He collects the pew
rents and takes his habitual commits
sion; he is paid for opening the church
and for closing il and few other
things that keep him from starvation.
But there is one thing he must look

George Purcell tells some stories
about mining coal that are interesting
Purcell says. rat, when caught in a
trap, will cut off q limb 10 escape. He
one day caught rat with 4 black
smith 5 pincherS. He had only time to
fix the pinchers on the rats tail, but
with sufficient grip to hold the rat for
a time He intended taking the rat to
a feed box in the barn, where It's fight
ing qualities could be tested b ter
rier. The rat, hanging by its tai. turned
around To free itself from the pinchers.
Finding that the pinchers were harder
than its teeth, it turned its attention to
its own tail. 1t cut with its teeth a
ring around the tail and then made a
jump. The skin peeled off the tail leav-
ing the tail covering in the grip of
Purcell and the pinchers. 1t is needless
to say that the rat escaped.
Miners believe that rats leave fall

Of rats one day when he was entering

with stick, but as fast as he knocked
one ont another took mis- place. He was
accompanied by cog, and the dog was
so badly bitten by the rats that he
sought shelter behind Kerrigan. Seeing
that the dog was badly injured by the
attack of the rats. Kerrigan took him
outside the mine to have his injuries
