and begged that he would not trouble
to paint for longer than the morning.
The terms We're good, and the artist.

what the painter had done in the morn

DEBORAH Republican,: Iowa greed,

greeness makes the state perennial
spring of wealth for the Chicago board

grain buyers, stock buyers, and men in
all occupations are all the time buck
ing this board Of trade tiger, and al
ways to their loss and the benefit of
the Chicago end of the deal. 1t is the
biggest bunco game on earth, and the
wonder.is that the thing keeps right on
and on, year after year. There is hard
ly an Iowa town to be found but has
one or more financial wrecks, the vic
Tins of this business. Then there is
the crop of embezzlements, thievery,
suicides and all the long list of gener-
al cussedness growing out of this thing.

Something Worth Know

Never, we believe, in the history of
the United States has there been such
a difference between the price of cattle
on foot and their hides or skins as there
is at the present time. Cattle at Min
neapolis, South St. Paul, Omaha, Kan
sas City aud Chicago range in price
from $1.75 to $3.50; COWS average 2M;
steers 2 to 81; bulls 1M; veal calf 2
to ~,
If tho cattle were all hides and tai
low the farmers would receive more
money according to the price circular
issued by the North western Hide &
Fur Co., Minneapolis, who quote the
following cash prices: !.
Cow hides green salt cured, No. 9116c
No. 2, 819c. 4
Cow hides green unsalted, No. $40,
No. 2715c. +
Heavy steer hides 15c per lb. more;
bull hides 16c per lb. less. !:
Veal calf green salt cured, No. 1910,
No. 2 1lAc.
Veal kip green salt cured, No. l 1015c,
No.2 SC.
Veal kip green unsalted, No. 91zc,
No. SC.
It is shown from the above figures
that hides and skins are worth from 3
to 31a times as much per pound as the
cattle on foot. Rendered tallow is
worth 411c per pound, rough 2Ac. 1t
would seem exceedingly wise on the
part of the farmer and stock-man to
slaughter his stock at home and eat or
sell his beef rather than ship to market;
after the freight and commission are
paid there is but little left in common
stock.

OF the 1856 members of the next
national house of representatives, the
republicans will have 25l and the
democrats 1875, giving the republicans a
clear majority of 116 votes. This is
said to be the largest majority in the
history Of congress. With such power,
great responsibility attaches and the
people will hold the majority party
strictly to the fearless discharge of
public duty.

JAPAN proposes that Russia evacuate
