the name of Cleveland and the cry of tariff reform have become fixed in the habit of voting the Republican ticket. Even Governor Odelrs assump- ton of the State chairmanship did not dislodge enough of them to defeat his candidates. Seventy-five thousand plu- rality for Higgins is evidence that Judge Herricks nomination failed to remove the popular distrust of the ma chine of which Hill has been chief en- gineer. And yet the most ar-sighted Republicans themselves admit that just now the gravest peril to their own party in this State, as In the nation at large. Is lack of an effective Opposi- tion.

New Orleans Picayune.
 The agitation of the servant ques- fion, which was opened in yesterday s Picayune, seems to nave met with the general appreciation of women. At all the meetings yesterday there was a general consensus of opinions that the discussions through such a power ful and widespread medium as The Pic ayune would be productive of much good, in not only reaching the heart of the problem. but perhaps in bring ing about & better condition of affairs an our own city.
 Yesterday morning Mrs. Reter r. Pescud, who is not oIly one of the most prominent social leaders, but q woman who has entered heart and soul into every movement that makes for the good of women, and especially for the poor and unfortunate and the wage earners. was interviewed as to her views on the servant problem.
 q do not think that there is any problem at all, or. at least there has never been any in my personal ex- perience," said Mrs. Pescud, though I hear on all sides of the poor qual- ity of the help we have now-a-d days. the difficulty of keeping help, and above all the great trouble that housekeepers have with cooks.
 l any trouble with my cook. my house. man or porter. my haid or my laun- dress. I have had four cooks in twen- ty years; they did not leave my service till they were each too fat and big to move around the kitchen with ease; they simply retired from service, hav- ing grown old in work, and leaving my home. they have continued my staunch friends. People said that if I did not feed my cooks so well I would have had them still in my employ. That may be, but I do not see it in that light. I simply treated them as hu- man beings. as members of my family. I believed in them, trusted in them: they in turn believed in me, and trust ed me. Faith begets faith, I never questioned their honesty. and they never questioned my sincerity in deal- ing with them.
 The servant problem is an all-round one, and not only refers to cooks" con tinued Mrs. Pescud. but to all domes- tic help. I have had my houseman, Charles Williams. in my employ for over eighteen years. He came to me when he was a little boy of g years 10 do odd jobs around the house, such as opening the door chores, etc. He bids fair, from present Indications. to remain with us to the epd of his days. Mfr Pescud and have trusted him i'm riicitly. We had him taught to read NSnd write and to keep )accounts. He attends to everything (of that nature

A-unique AMI most important

shown in the Gulch or outside

1t is remembered that at Chi

chronology, consists of a most
valuable collection, chief among
which is the wonderful Harvey
collection, brought here from
Albuquerque. From an artistic
point of view it cannot fail to in

who pronounce it by far the best
