Harmony at Cleveland.

Now we know the process by which
the 'rabid AGckIssonites' in the CIeye-

monized. Superficial harmony has been
brought about by an ostensible COM

Foraker was responsible for it. Hence
the logical inference that Foraker also

appears, there are Republicans who do

HOW BUFFALO WILL PROVIDE ACCOM-

W D.. Thayer superintendent of the bureau
of information has published a statement to
the effect that Buffalo has two hundred no

persons. There are also go boarding and lodg-
ing houses. affordinG accommodations for eight
teen thousand more. and not less than seven
thousand house owners will take boarders dur
ing the busy season of the exposition. This
will furnish accommodations for one hundred
thousand visitors
In addition to all this. the exposition company
has arranged to house under tents in the exposi-
tion grounds uniformed bodies who visit the eX
position, and two companies have been formed
for the accommodation of persons in tents.
1t will be seen" said Mr.. Thayer, that
Buffalo is prepared to accommodate more than
one hundred and fifty thousand strangers. To
this may be added places for fifty thousand Wis
itors in the nearby towns. such Tonawanda

The accommodations in the private houses
will be of superior character. and the prices
will range from 81 to s. day. In nearly every
instance families will furnish breakfast to their
dodgers at from ~ cents to 20 cents each
The tenting plants are to be run in first class
style. They will have city water delivered to
the street, will be electrically lighted, will have
board floors large tents, and in the summer
months will offer of the most delightful
modes of spending a few days weeks that
