POLITICAL MECHANICS.

The latest contribution to the vO-
cabulary OF politics comes from Iowa,
wherethe ''standpatter' has teen coined
to designate those. advocates. OF pro-
tective tariff who thinks it wiser to
''stand pat" as the expression of the
card player is. on their favorite princi-
Pile, than to admit that the time for
tariff changes has arrived. The proven
bal ingenuity of the Yankee is thus
once more illustrated. He has found
scope for the display Of his talent at
various eras In politics, for usually
political nicknameS are the outgrowth
Of exciting political struggles. In the
strenuous times of Van Duran we had
the "barnburners" and the ''hUnkers !"
During the civil war democrats in the
north who sympathized with the south
were stigmatized as "copperheads.
The 6issension In the republican ranks
over the proposition to nominate
General Grant for third term led to
the use of the word ''stalwart" in the
designation of Grants supporters. The
extensive detection OF tariff reform and
free trade republicans to Cleveland,
later on, gave rise to the term mug
wumps," as applied to the seceders,
term which is still in common use. It
is not unlikely that in the strenuous
discussion of the tariff issue, bound to
occur in the coming presidential cam.
paign, the name "standpatters" Will be
applied to ultra protectionist very
generally. and not alone IN Iowa. And,
by the way, it is not bad word in this
connection .--Leslie's Weekly.

A CAMPAIGN DEAL.

BY the aid of documents supplied by
Mr.. Leland, Mr.. Morton Albaugh has
been able to prove pretty conclusively
that the managers of the republican
state committee had agreed to pay
Conner Dawes, Of the Conoordia Kan
san, $4,000 In consideration of his flop
from the Populists to the Republican
party. At the last moment the deal
was called off because of the objections
Of George Clark, who had purchased a
Republican newspaper at Concordia,
and, naturally, did not want his rival
doomed. Davies denies all knowledge
of such deal, but there can be- no
doubt that the deal was made with MIR.
Crum, just as Mr.. Albaugh, Mr.. Leland
and Mr.. Clark have said it was. And
now the matter sits itself down to q
question OF what the people think of a
state central committee which con
fesses that it broke the laws of Kansas
by agreeing to buy the votes and in
fluence of POpuIists for cash.-Kansas

Laugh and Grow Fat.

Life Is such serious business with
the average mortal that an opportunity
for hearty laugh Is more than welcome
to most people. "A merry heart doeth
good like a medicine" and so do the
humorous features OF that great
metropolitan daily, The Chicago
Record Herald. The first thing that
greets you on the first page of eyery:pa
per is the humorous cartoon by Ralph
Wilder, the we'll known artist, that
frequently tells more at glance than
could be- conveyed IN a column of read
ing matter. Every issue contains also
humorous small story on the editorial
page and the "Alternation Currents
column, written by S. E. Kiser, one of
the most pop ular humorous writer's in
the country. In addition to all these,
the Sunday issue always includes a
comic section, guaranteed to produce
laughter.

fIFTY-CENT DOLLAR
MEXICO WILL SOON HAVE A STA
BILE CURRENCY AT
THIS RATIO.

Ell Psso, Tex, May 25-From Off
cial sources IL Is learned that Mexico
soon will have stable dollar fixed al
q on-fuctuating value of 80 cents.
1t is said that Mexico's tinanciers will
never permit silver to be secondary in
the republic. They will allow it to
be the coin Of the realm. however, only
at q fixed ratio. Within six months
Enrique @. Creel, who, in commune.
ton with Secretary of Finance Liman'
tour, controls the finances Of Mexico,
is expected to bring this about.
or all the silver produced in Mexico
9s per cent is now in Asia, and the to-
tai amount of silver now in the repub
lie will not exceed 400, 900, 900. Sill
yer is being boarded in Mexico today
as was gold in the days Of the gold
standard. As q result of assurance Of
stable currency for Mexico, more
foreign capital is being invested there
and more will be placed there within
the next few months.
