self to the silver Republicans d
Idaho, we may readily divine the
general tenor Of her remarks,
After surveying the situation she
would point out that Silver Re-
pubiicans erred grievously in their
estimate of Democratic sincerity
on the financial question, and that
the only result of the alliance was
10 promote local Democratic sue
cess without in the least advance
ing bimetallism. Then ii would
be pointed out that all the honest
Silver Republicans and nearly all
the intelligent ones had come to
a realization of these facts or
were rapidly opening their eyes
to them. She would then come
to specific facts, showing that
there was nothing left of the Sill
yer Republican party except a
few odds and ends like julie Bas-
sett, Bartlett Sinclair, Fremont
Wood and few others, and that
the Silver Republican press had
practically ceased to exist. She
would marshal the facts in such
convincing number and order as
to satisfy every intelligent Silver
Republican that he no longer had
a party or a respectable germ
from which to propagate a party.
Then the author Of "Heart to
Heart Talks" would get down to
business, and she would tell the
Silver Republicans that as they
were honest and patriotic citizens
it behooved them to unite with
that great national party which
believes in upholding the Ameri-
can flag and the honor of our coun-
try; that party which has brought
joy and prosperity from the
gloom of misery and adversely;
that party which believes there is
nothing too good for the Ameri-
can people, nothing, possible, too
great for them to achieve. And
after she had explained that this
great party is earnestly seeking
the cooperation of every patriot
in the land, she would cordially
invite them to come in and make
themselves at home. There
wouldn't be any prodigal son, or
bench, or foot of the
ladder business about it either;
because if there is anything
in this world that a re-
American detests it is
o be subjected to that kind of
humiliation; and if there is any
hing a good American will avoid
t is the humiliation of his fellow
If man make politi-
al mistake 'and find it out, he
will make all necessary repara-
ion of his own accord in due
ime. At any rate, the idea of
process in political
!ffairs is at once absurd and brut-
j. In this country a man has a le-
Sal and moral right to change his
political views as often as reason
nd conscience may dictate, and
e is under no obligation to spoil
'gize to any one for exercising
hat right, More particularly
as a man a right to get out of
ad political mess as quickly as
and we heartily congrat-
late the Silver Republicans on
heir expedition.

THANKSGIVING.

Governor Bradford, in I62r,
issued the first Thanksgiving
proclamation known to the his
tory Of this country. Il was not
a very imposing or elaborate doc
ument, but went right TO the
point. Ii directed that four men
go out fowling in order that the
Pilgrims "might after a more
special manner rejoice together"
1t would seem, however, that the
idea of our modern Thanksgiv-
ing day was suggested by the
feast of the tabernacles,
or "feast of ingathering at
the end of the year" The
occasional observance Of day Of
Thanksgiving, formally recon-
mended by the civil authorities,
was not unusual in European
countries as early as the 12th
and 18th centuries, and probably
earlier; but there had been no
regular annual observance of such
a day in any country until il was
established by the continental
Congress" During the Revolu-
tionary war, thanksgiving day
became national institution, be-
ing annually. recommended by
Congress; but after the general
Thanksgiving for peace in 1884,
the observance became irregular.
In 1868 the annual observance of
q Thanksgiving day was reestab-
lished by President Lincoln, and
custom has fixed the-time for the
last Thursday in November. We
can trace the origin Of Thanks
giving day TO the same source as
Fast day and both are equally re-
ligious institutions, but the form
.er is much the more popular, and
this illustrates a happv fact in re-
ligious development. In by gone
ages the piety Of man consisted
largely of torturing himself to APP
pease the wrath of heaven and in
melancholy praying and fasting.
Whenever an evil befell him he
complained 10 the Lord and in
yoked His help, but for about all
The good that came, man credit
ed himself and said nothing. So
fast days formerly were much
more frequent and regular than
days OF thanksgiving. But in a
great measure men have ceased
to blame the Lord for all evil and
credit themselves with all good,
They have come to understand
hat most of the misery and dis
tress they suffer are Of their own
and that by the exercise
Of reasonable precaution, and the
living Of true Christian lives, all
Of the evils can be mitigated or
ayerted. They now more than
ever realize that the blessings
hey enjoy are the gifts of heay-
IN and the evils they suffer, the
wages of their own sins, Hence,
here is more thanksgiving and
praise and JOY and less fasting
and complaining prayer. The
day of festivity and good cheer
md fullness has superseded the
day of repining and lamentation
and hunger. The man who is
illed with woe goes off and kicks !
himself ior it, but the man who is
over with joy lifts his
'Oice q heaven in praise and
thanksgiving, and it is well,

Of the effect upon the human system o.

and. the opinions that have been pnb-
lIshed from noted scientists 10 the ef-
feet that such powders render the food

inquiries for the names Of the various
alan powders.
The following list OF baking powders
chntaining alnm 10 made up from the
reports OF State Chemist Nicholson, Of
Nehraska, the city chemist Of st. Louis,
the Food Commission Of Minnesota, or

In addition TO these it is learned that
many grocers are selling what they call
their own private or special brands
These powders are made for the grocer,
his name being put upon the Labels BY
manufacturers Of alum powders in st.
Louis, Chicago. Kansas City, Salt Lake
etc. The manufacturers. it is said fnd
their efforts greatly aided by the ambi-
ton Of the grocer to sell q powder with
bis own name upon the label, especially
as he can make an abnormal profit upon
it. Many grocers, doubtless, do not
know that the powders they are thus
pushing are alum powders which would
be actually eontTabrand in some Sec
tiOns II sold without disgu0ise.
II is quite impossible 10 give the
names Of all the alum baking powders
In the market. They are constantly ap
pearing in all sorts Of DISCUSSES, under
all sorts OF cognomens. and at all kinds
Of prices, even as low. as Ave and ten
cents pound. They can be avoided
however. by the hoasekeeper who will
bear in mind that all baking powders
sold at twenty-five cents or less per
pound are liable 10 contain alum, as
pure cream of tartar powders cannot
be produce d at anything like this price.
