that purpose; and, that the Union
Reform party organized at Cincin-

and at the same time a very broad
basis for such union, that it is the

principle by the individual; and

such union; we, whose names are

that was never known to possess All
ounce of sense since the civil war,
wants to try to engineer political
campaign in Washington all alone
by itself, nobody on earth is more
willing that the trial should be
undertaken at once than tie silver
republicans and populists of Wash
ington!
Again-and we speak by the card
If the Anticipated Burhon dem
ocracy-of civil war odor-desires
to withdraw from the union of
forces, as set forth by The Seattle
Review, which pretends to be a
simon.pure Democratic paper, and
The Yakima Democrat, both OF
which have been having conniption
fits ever since fusion was formed in
1S96-then so far as The Times be
concerned, all we ask is that they
just "get out" and play their hand
All you will have to do, gentle
men is to call a convention and
name it "Simon Pnre Bourbon
Democracy" and be exceedingly
careful that you invite nobody
thereto who don't sneeze when you
take off your hats. And when you
get through with your self-satisfied
exhibition of pomposity you will te
convinced that there isn't 10000
democrats in a state that will cast
100000 votes in 1909.
We want it distinctly understood
that when we entered this fusion
deal we did so with our hats on
our banners flying and with the
same principles which have moved
us during our entire life--but il
order to save silver to the people
we were willing to 20 it blind as te
party name for the sake of the
principle which we Endorsed ant
for which we had for 25 years-bu
which the republican party hat
forsaken-in order to rebuke thu
traitors to our monetary system.
Now, if you democrats think i
was a "sacrafice" to have joined il
that union, then promptly quit ant
flock by yourselves, and submit tt
the inevitable defeat that will come
Just as surely as election occurs il
November, 1900.
But if you don't want these re
suits, then stop your childish ant
pusillanimous talk, get in line
formulate principles and invite
American citizens to indorse then
without regard to what name yol
may be compelled to adopt in order
to organize the great anti'repub
lican forces of the nation into ont
harmonious party. who, if thus led
will surely win victory in 1900.

BABY COMFORTS.
Tying Strings Instead of Pins Con.
duce to Comfort-Unyvholso
ness of Down Pillows.

It requires considerable experience
to select u baby's dress. AS rule, plain
clothing is not only more attractive,
but much more comfortable for little
child to wear. So long us pins arc super
seeded by tying strings the child Will
be much more comfortable, and the
sizes Of the bands can l,c regulated to
the rapid growth of young children al
most as easily by tying strings us by
pins. Use narrow strips Of linen bob
bin, and let them be long enough SO
they can be let out as tho child grows.
No trimming should be put around the
neck or sleeves of little gowns Ssand
dresses except mere edge of the finest
and softest lace or little ruff1e of linen
lawn as soft and fine as a handkerchief.
1t is not Kindness to provide little
one with down pillow, though the
down be that which the elder duols pulls
from its own breast to line its nest. No
down pillow is SO wholesome a head
rest as flat pillow of hair, which will
raise the child's head but mere trile
above the level Of its body. Down or
feather pillows are too heating fer the
head Of an infant to rest upon. Keep
the little ones feet warm, and keep on q
warm bandage as well as high-necked
and long-sleeved shirt Of light wool
throughout the summer.-N. Y. Trib-

CLEVER PIECE OF ACTING.
How the GIRL Who Was Being Hnzea
Turned the Tables on the
Hrxera.

The girl of my heart came home to
attend cousins wedding, andsSShe
stayed in town for two days Before
going back to school for the co,npaence-
1nent which will make her sophdmore.
It wouldn't be fair to tell the name of
her school, but it's g very excellent
one, where the fashions Of the mems
colleges are followed, even to the pos
session Of a college yell, and the prac-
ticing of hazing. The girl of my heart
was hazed last fall. She did not faint
when the girls touched her arm with
a bit of ice, and said they were branding
her with an iron. She endured every
ordeal SO smilingly that the girls at
last determined to do something per-
fectly dreadful. They marched her
through dark halls, blindfolded as she
was, opened closet door in the physic-
al laboratory, snatchcd the bandagc
from her eyes, pushed her in, locked the
door, and left her in the arms of a
skeleton.
Now, skeleton to her is no more
terrifying than a hoop-skirt, but she
saw an opportunity to amuse herself.
SIZE is one of the cleverest amateur ac-
tresses Washington possesses. She let
down her hair and tangled it aboutsLer
face. Her gown was an old one. soshe
sacrificed it, and tore it to tatters.
Then she waited. Presently she heard
the girls returning. She began to Groom
softly to herself q weird songs The
girls opened the door. She took no no.
tice of them, but went on lavishing
/, tho rrrj,, ,,3,, 81,
idiotically to herself the while. Final.
~ one of them whispcrcd:
Girls. she's raving mad!''
That was the cue for the girl of my
heart. She raved; she tore her hair;
shrielzed when they tried to draw her
away from the skeleton; she laughed;
she flung herself about, and finally
danced out into the outer room, moan
ing in blcod-curdling way. The girls
dared not even breathe. They were
ghast!y. They chung to each other and
shuddered. The girl of my heart danced
to the door, caught up a knife from
table waved it with hideous scream.
and sprang at them. Then, as they
huddlcd together in perfect agony of
fright, she dropped the knife and
opened the door. Fl
well, girls" she said, drawlingly,
II hope you've enjoyed the fun; I'm
sure have"
Then she disappeared, and dozen
crestfallen girls, too frightened to dare
to go into Mysteries, too much relieved
to be angry. stole quietly away. They
are clever girls, the girls at this col
lego, but the girl of my heart is bell

The new lovely rose color called
american beauty is prominent shade
among rich or dainty summer textiles
and on French millinery in hats entire
OF among the striking accessories.
Many dressnakers are using hounces
cut straight from the goods, instead Of
the long-popular circular shapes cut
bias. The reason is that on wash
fabrics the former como from the laun-
dry in better condition than the others,
and on very light, airy fabrics they
hang better, even when the flounccs are
first arranged upon the skirt. White
India linen or Victoria lawn dresses
have three flounces on the skirt, grady u
ated in size. They are each made with
11a-inch hem, with three tuclls above
the hem. India muslins of pale forget
me-not blue are trimmed with deep
cream-coiorcd lace insertion bands and
appliques. Some Of the imported
dresses have tucked bodice and hip
yokes alternating with insertion, with
sleeves tucked and banded from wrist
to elbow. Blue nuns yelling gowns are
similarly made.
The toques, turbans and English
walking hats Of this season are greatly
liked, these shapes being patronizcd by
come of the best dressed women of the
city. A great fancy prevails this year
for making up tullc into sailor, tcouc
and other fashionable styles. Two col
ors are generally used on these models,
like green tulle combined with white
,tulle, blue with violet, etc. A charm

White trimmings arc greatly in evil

fashion to match the color Of the even

1t is not considered good taste to wear
red gloves anywhere, or to wear blue

gloves with yellow one, etc. The
strict law about gloves is that nothing
but suede Should ever be worn in the
evening, no matter whether the wcarcr
is in full dress or not. Now that so
much white lace, white chiffon, cord
