Tin: piosiict'ts for an extra session of congress are becoming very apjiarant. Tin: siipjiression of :iinb!iii in its Avorst form at Uoly, Las leen iimugjurrateil lv (Ioverntr Matthews.

Tin: president has been requested to remove John (!. Carlisle, (i rover says nothing but continues to "raw wood.

Tin: production of gold for the year lbl'l, anniuntstoslT-VMiMtlie largest yearly out put in the hist ory of the world. I!i:rm:Ts from Florida show that the extreme cold weather has ruined the orange crop. The loss is estimated at 2,ooMHto boxes.

following the iron clad rules of the court, and enforcing the laws as they are laid down by legislatures and construed by the decisions and precedents of the higher courts. Tiiom: who get mad at positive men who have opinions and are able to exPress them, are generally those who have no ideas or opinions of their own and never did have. A dull, ignorant, stupid w ooden man, who is only the tool or puppet of some shrewd manipulator, and only expresses such views on any subject, political, theological, or practical, which he lias heard some other person promulgate, is invariably self-conceited, intolerant and boorish.

So.mktiiin; had better be done at "Washington in regard to the merry-go-round, known as the currency bill, or the whole combine should be turned down.

A fourteen-year-old South Carolina boy banged himself because he was whipped for smoking cigarettes. The wonder is that . i Jad so sensitive as to public opinion, shouldhave smoked cigarettes.

!!: rM-: may say what they please against the ' Federation of Labor," but so long as it makes compulsory education one of its fundamental principles, there is but little danger that it will advocate many disorganizing or hurtful doctrines.

A kavoi:ai:le report has been mace in the senate on the bill throwing open to settlement, all the lands of the old military reservations not now occupied by the government, comprising 7-11,01:1 acres scattered throughout the different states and territories. Tin: monument erected at Springlield, 111., to the memory of President Lincoln, is fast falling into ruins, and unless an elTort is soon put forth the shaft that marks the last resting place of the martyr president will topple over for want of proper care. A ni:w way of committing suicidewas brought out by a saloon keeper at Omaha, Xeb. He connected a rubber tube from a gas jet to the faucet of an ice chest; turned on the gas, jumped into the box, closed the lid which for his convenience had a spring lock, and, and there you are.

Any administration in this country no matter what party it is elected by, may always count upon the hearty support of the intelligent and enlightened sentiment of the country in all efforts for any genuine reform. The people are right, as a rule, after a cjreful and educating investigation of any great question of principle or policy which affects the best interest of all. The opposition to what is right and practical in national affairs does not come from the people, but from the spoilsmen, the rings and the machine manipulators.

In yesterday's Chicago record the following utterances from Mr. J. I. Morgan, a banker of New York City, will bear careful reading. lie sa)s: "Mr. Carlisle's unfitness to manage the linances of the government has been demonstrated over and over again, and he is injuring the credit of Urs country at home and in Europe by advocating before congress such a measure as that now pending in the house of representatives. When a man will do that there is no telling what he may do hereafter. He has lost the confidence of the financiers ami the business men of this country, and we cannot expect any improvement so long as such a man is intrusted with the linances of the government."

Tin: labors of the national committee of the people's party, which met in St. Louis last week ended with their labors complete. In their report they outlined the following policy: They adhere to the Omaha platform; insist upon the coinage of gold and silver as it was prior to 1873, and at a raito of 10 to 1, and that to, without regard to any other nation. That all money should be issued by the government without the intervention of banks of issue, and the same to be a full legal tender. They also denounce any further issuance of interest-bearing bonds. The pooling bill, which is now before congress was denounced, being considered another

step toward complete monopoly of trans

portation, and reiterate their former as

sertions regarding the ownership of

railroads by the government.

Your wife will tell you that we have just purchased from the largest Cloak Manufacturers of the West, 150 Ladies', Misses' and Children's Cloaks at 50c on the dollar and are prepared to furnish those that have not

yet bought, Bran New Cloaks at about half

of former prices. For instance, a $5.00 garment for $2.98, a $7.00 Cloak for $3.98, a $10.00 one for $698, etc.. all the way through. Our January sale of Bleached and Unbleached Muslins will be something immense, as we just bought about $1000.00 worth of cotton goods sold at the late New York auction sale at about 75 cents on the dollar. You will be astonished how cheap we will sell them to you. Come in and price them. L. A. KLOEPFER.

Tin: demand of Japan for indemnity of China is but in full accord with the custom of nations in these latter days. It is no more unreasonable than the indemnity demand of Trance by Germany. The chief point of interest in the whole thing is that Japan keeps increasing the amount for every day's delay. China had better act quickly, because Japan, evidently has the power

and ability to enforce her demands.

Most of the schemes now being pro

posed on the currency question are work

ed by cunning tricksters and are the

schemes of men, the following of whose

advice heretofore, has only brought pan

ic and disaster. The people of this

country are not an ignorant multitude. On the contrary t heir's is generally good sense and intelligence, and tlat this good sense and intelligence prevails, is shown by the results of the late elections. The people will stand by the government, when it shows honesty, courage and fidelity to all the interests of the people. When, on the contrary, the government panders to the trusts, the gold bugs, the great monopolies, the people may be depend upon to turn it down as they did on the Oth of November last.

It is likely true that much of the complaint made about the delays and trouble in obtaining justice speedily in the courts now a days, is not the fault of the courts, but of the laws. A judge in these days can hardly consider it his function to administer justice. Unless the case on trial is left entirely to the court, instead of the jury, the justice of the issue lias no bearing on the dccissions he is called upon to make. The judge's imparative duty is to enforce the rules of law. His sympathies may all be in one direction, and be thus enlisted because he firmly believes that justice lies that way, but if justice is contrary to the rules of law, allhis sympathies and sense of justice must be suppresed in the supreme necessity of
