A CHANGE NECESSARY.

1t is matter for congratuIation,
that the several parties in their
platforms have declared against
official graft and dishonesty and for
greater economy in public expenditures
For years the expenses of both state
and nation have increased out of all
proportion to the increase of popula-
tion. Offices have been multiplied,
salaries increased, until taxation has
become burden. The increase of the
salaries of members of congress was
steal by which hundreds of thou
sands of dollars was taken out of the
national treasury for the benefit of
men who were receiving more than
their services were worth and twice
as much as three fourths of them
could earn at home. Commissions
have been created to do the work for
which officials draw salaries amounting
to hundreds of thousands of dollars
annually, that the officials may gall
want around the country at the expense
of the people instead of remaining in
their Offices and attending to the
business they ought to perform. 1t is
high time, that there was q marked
change and the inauguration of honest
methods and practices in state and
nation. During the past two years
Offices in the nation have increased
for 1886, 600 to $40, 900 and in the stase
large number of Offices and COM
missions could be dispensed with,
without loss to the people and gain
in the treasury for the benefit of the
taxpayers.

The fellows that have an abnormal
itch for a seat in the United States
senate are already looking with long
ing eyes and hopeful expectations for
the seat now occupied by Senator
Stephenson. On account of his advan-
ced age, they anticipate vacancy at
no distant day and then the squabble
will begin. Stephenson is mighty

Col. Roosevelt in his speech to the
New York republican state convention
strongly endorsed President Taft and
his administration, and in the Wis
consin republican gathering at Madison
during the week, no mention is made
of the president.
After reading the several party
platforms adopted at Madison by the
several political gatherings pus one
conclusion could be reached. and that
is, that they are all progressive and
then some. even to wildness.
The republicans of Ohio, New York,
Iowa and Illinois endorsed President
Taft and his administration by giving
him credit tor what has been accom-
plished thus far during his term of
Office. Wisconsin endorsed the boss
only. who dominated the convention in
his own interest.
We like Roosevelt for two things:
He stands by mis- friends (sometlmes
when they are unworthy and fights
within his party, but never tries to
destroy it for. selfish ends. He is a
progressive, but never a political
ingvate.

WORN BY FASHION LEADERS
New Ideas, Both in Materials and
Makeup, Mark the styles of
the Season.

Wooden knitted coats In light colors
are extremely popular. They reach
almost to the hem of the skirt and
are in the palest and most delicate
shades, as well as in the usual scarlet
and navy blue colors.
Pretty and inexpensive dressing
gowns are made of cotton wolfe in
lavender, pink or ~pigeon-blue. Cot
ton crepe is also used. They are, Of
course, not so warm as wooden and
flannel kimonos, but are much pref
tier and daintier.
Medieval reception gowns are mach
the rage this year. They are greatly
modified, of course, though they still
retain enough Of the medieval not to
give q certain romantic effect. They
are most of them made with tight
fitting transparent sleeves and oval
shaped yokes, finished at the throat
with a rather high collar band. The
material Is Of velvet, cashmere or
crepe de chine, the skirts usually dec
Grated with heavy embroideries and
draped at the knees.
Satin r~eticules to match every
dress is the latest craze in hand bags.

Realism In Millinery.

Yet another luxury has been invent
ed for women's benefit. This is the
trimming of the hat with perfumed
flowers.
For the use Of the who IS
wearing other than the flower hat, lit
tie sachets have been made by a we'll
known firm. These are stitched In
side the crown OF the hat to obtain
the scented hat effect.
One of the first perfumed flowers
which has arrived from Paris was a
beautiful Malmaison carnation. the
perfume .sachet of which is entirely
hidden In its base.
Violets will smell like fresh v%iolets,
lilies as lilies, and the same with all
the flowers all the time the hat is
worn, for the scent Is lasting.

BEST FORM OF EMBROIDERY
Ribbon Work a Charming Pastime
and May Be Made a Source OF
Income.


Probably the expense alone keeps
many women from taking up the
beautiful ribbon embroidery. This
Is ideal work, however, for those
who need not consider expense and.
too. for those who make pin-money
from their embroidery articles. They
make an appeal to the paying public
that less fancy articles do not.
For the sake OF economy all Of the
ribbon from an eighth to an inch in
width should be got by the piece.
More of the extremely narrow widths
viii be required, and 1t is economy in
the long run to lay in a supply of the
wanted colors.
Corded silk and poplin are the best
backgrounds for ribbon embroidery,
and all thinner silks should be basted
first upon an open weave canvas to
prevent their pulling and prawing.
All short spaces may be crossed on
the wrong side in going from flower to
flower. but for longer distances the
ribbon is cut and a fresh start made
with a small knot, both to prevent
unsightly drawing and as an economy
IN ribbon.
That delightful puffed effect in the
blossoms will be destroyed If the rib
bon is drawn too tightly, and all at
tempts at fastening ends should be
left until last, and the cut ends be
pasted with library paste to the
wrong side TO insure fairness of back
ground.
