The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1902-07-24

The South Bend Tribune says that
Governor LaFollette, of Wisconsin, is
not a safe man to tie to. He is a
shrewd politician in managing his own
interests but that is about as far as
his ability goes, and when the repub-
licans of Wisconsin turn their backs
upon a man like Senator Spooner and
swear allegiance to one like Governor
LaFollettc they are doing wrong and
such action will endanger the success
of the party at the polls next fall.
The same line of reasoning might be
applied in the Thirteenth congression-
al district Right usually makes
might everywhere.

The South Bend Times, one of the
leading democratic papers of Indiana,
despalrs of harmony in the democratic
party. 1t says: Men who believe
alike on the main questions before
the people belong together under one
party roof. There can be no harmony
when political views are so widely
divergent as are those held by
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Bryan.
If Mr.. Cleveland's definition of
democracy is correct, William Jen-
nlngS Bryan cannot be regarded a
democrat. And if Mr.. Bryan correct
ly defines democracy, Grover Cleve-
land certainly is rot a democrat. How,
then, can these two men pose as apost-
les of one and the same political party?

The democratic papers which per-
sist in calling Bryan the ''wrecker of
democracy" are not doing their party
any good although they are partly
telling tho truth. Bryan and his sup
porters wrecked the party, but they
constitute about four-fifthS of all the
democrats In the United states and
Bryan is powerful force in the demo-
cratic party whether he gets another
presidential nomination or not.

Burmese Midsets at EIkhart.

The Elks, of Elkhart, hgve secured
the Burmese midgets for the carnival
which will be held soon.
These are the two smallest human
beings alive. Fatma is Il years of age,
20 inches high and weighs IL pounds.
Smaun is 10 years old, IA inches high,
weight 12pounds. The little couple are
brother and sister andca me from East
India. They were discovered by pearl
fishers. The midgets worked taking
care of goats and fishing and were not
regarded by the people of their coun-
try as very great curiosiaies, conse-
quently they were easily procured and
sent to Germany, where they attained
the artistic ability and athletic skill
which they possess.

The Savannah morning news., 1902-04-20

From Scribner's.

For some twenty centuries the COM
merce of London has drifted up with
the tide and down with the tide. The
strenuous Romans of old found a town
of the Britains at Lin-dyn, and con-
.quered it; and the strenuous Saxons
conquered the town the Romans had
left. The strenuous Danes made them
selves masters of the Saxons, and then
came the strenuous William of Nor
mandy, and built the massive tower
over there to dominate the city and
port. But in London to-day the COM
merce still drifts, and is steered. None
of the great ports of the world has had
a longer or more varied history; it is
the heart of the greatest of CONNER
cial nations, and the cradle of the
mistress of the seas; but it is still reg
ulated by the tide. 1t is at last well
proved, this philosophy of drifting and
steering. Who can say that it will not
continue to rule the world for another
. 600 years? Its methods are not brill
liant, but they are sure.

Today this chaotic whirl of shapes
has settled somewhat. so one may judge
from the present what the coming win
ter and spring will show forth. The
old fashioned large sleeve was immense
at the top and small and narrow at the
bottom. With the new large sleeve,
however. the case is exactly reversed.
II is small at the top and overgrown at
the bottom. The general idea of IL is
that Ii shall Mt the armhole loosely
enough to be comfortable, but be either
entirely. plain or have one or two rows
of plating along each side OF the outer
seam. These plaits may stop at the
elbow or run on down over IL toward
the wrist. In every case the lower end
OF long sleeve must, however. be very
full. Sometimes IL is gathered into
wristband, sometimes left flowing, and
these two styles are about equally rep
resented In the latest garments.
Both the flowing and the wristband
sleeve will be used I'm heavy furs and
outdoor garments. Modish fur manu-
facturers have already exhibited jack
cts and looser coats in which both
styles appear. So they promise to be
the vogue for at least two seasons, or
anything so costly as Persian lamb and
seal would not be made with these
sleeve shapes.
The accompanying Illustration shows
in one of the groups of sleeve pictures
the varieties that will mostly appear in
heavy outdoor garments. The odd fam
cy for mingling fur with lace has not

somewhat small, plain sealskin sleeve
with the very large open cuff, from
which falls the deep lace frilling. The
above style OF sleeve is seen on a very
loose fitting Jacket. Here is also fur

inches of the ground. The artistic
French dressmaker takes infinite pains

she tries IL upon the person and meas

floor TO the top OF the skirt. Then she
measures up from the floor exactly as
many inches as she desires the skirt to
be above the floor and marks this
length with a bit OF chalk here and
there all around the goods. Thus she
