The amount of money in circulation on October 1, 1893. was SI. 596,049,983, according to the treasury circulation statement. Tariff reform is frightening no one but fools. All well informed people know that this administration will make but little if any change in our tariff laws. Cleveland Republicans are beginning to receive appointments and promotions now. Can it be that Grover is going to organize a new party and ask for a third term?

Twelve million acres of the public domain have been disposed of during the fiscal year ending June 30. 181)3. In exact figures the aggregate of public land.', disposed of was 11.891,143 acres of which 1,404,958 acres were sold for cash, 10,397,727 acres were miscellaneous entries and 89,457 were Indian lands. The cash receipts of the general land office during the year aggregated 4,479,734. The whiskey trust is said to owe the government one hundred and twenty millions of dollars.. On account of the hard times those interested in the steal are to see if they cannot get a bill through congress to take the tax from whiskey so as 1 ) let it through clear. But this will not affect the price to consumers of that great help to political enthusiasm and political success.—Advance Thought.

Van Alex, the monocle man of more money than brains, who paid fifty thousand dollars to the corruption fund that elected f trover Cleveland, has made three campaign bets that he would be appointed ambassador to Italy, as per agreement. Agreement with whom? Grover or Daniel? At this rate were Madam Restell alive and willing to pay enough, we suppose she could be posed as the model for a new Goddess of Liberty, and educator of the president's children if she desired to be thus held aloft.—Advance Thought. It was “a dirty Democratic move" last year. Yes. and it is still a Democratic move. The whole solid south is moving into it. Democratic Congressman Bryan moved into it last week. Twenty-three Democratic U. S. senators are getting ready to pack up and go. Oh, yes. it is. a Democratic move with the Republican U. S. senators. Teller. Stewart, Wolcott, Dubois and their likes in it. Friend Republican. we care not what you call it. All we ask is that it will still con tinue Jo move as it has been moving for the past two months and we will be satisfied. A Republican friend said to us the other day: “The Pilot is giving the Democrats some pretty hot shot here lately and is wisely, yes, necessarily letting the Republicans alone, for it now sees that we have been about right.” The Pilot is wasting no ammunition on dead ducks. The Republican party is a thing of the past. It is the Democratic party that now has control of this government and is responsible for what is not being done. We are not like the

I Irishman who pounded the snake to pieces after he had killed it. and when asked why he did so. replied: “Faith, I want to teach him that there is punishment after death.” We have no time or desire to give this old Republican carcass lessons of this kind. Though the Democrats' sins be as scarlet, yet as compared with the Republicans they are as white as wool. The Democratic party will never have the opportunity to do the evil the Republican party has done. The people have not the confi dence in it they once had in the Republican party, consequently they will not trust it far enough for it to betray them as the Republican party betrayed them. Friend Republican, the Pilot is after live game, so do not think because we say so little against your party that we have any love for it, for above all parties this country ever saw we think we have just grounds for hating yours the most.

Though political or financial legislation in Congress has put the silver mining industry of the country to sleep for a time, and though there has been a panic stalking over the land to the ruining of tens of thousands of men and corporations, the At-lantic-Pacific Railway Tunnel Company has weathered the storm, with all its properties intact. Now it begins mining for gold, to a certainty of property enough to meet all the interest on the eight per cent, bonds, that it has sold or will need to sell to ensure the completion of its tunnel for railway as -well as mining purposes. It has purchased all the shares issued by the Eldorado Gold Mining Company of Colorado, on whose properties is the largest and best mill in Summit county, and will soon enlarge it to a total capacity of one hundred tons of ore per day and thus treat the ore from that mine and others. This ore yields from one-half ounce to five ounces of gold per ton of ore, gold being worth exceeding twenty dollars per ounce, the average of the ore being more than two ounces of gold per ton of ore. The company counts on one thousand dollars per day as the nett earnings of the mill when it will treat one hundred tons per day, and hopes to double this sum as the proceeds from this one mill. It will also bring out ore from the gold veins crossed by the tunnel and add this product to the output of gold, and thus benefit those who are financially interested in the great tunnel enterprise. It is a work that should be hurried on to the completion of the tunnel, as when it is finished, cars can be run direct from Denver to Salt Lake City and save over 200 miles, and open to mining purposes the greatest gold, silver, lead and copper mines in the world. Tens of thousands of men in this country who have invested in other directions and lost, might have better invested in the bonds of this tujinel company. The history of the work is one of patient struggle, leading up to success, following honest management for the benefit of each and every investor. By sending to the president of the company, Room 46 World Building, New York City, facts can be obtained that will guide those who have money in large or small sums to invest. It is only a question of time ere trains will be darting straight through the Rocky Mountains, and then profits will come in double volume, from mining and from -rentals of the tunnel for railway purposes. Here is a good place for both capital and labor.

“During my term of service in the army I contracted chronic diarrhoea,” says A. E. Bending, of Halsey, Oregon. “Since then I have used a great amount of medicine, but when I found any that would give me relief they would injure my stomach, until Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was brought to my notice. I used it and will say it is the only remedy that gave me permanent relief and no bad results follow.” For sale by F. B. Meyer, the druggist.

Washington Letter.

I From our regular correspondent. Washington, Oct. 13, 1893. President Cleveland may be surprised at the failure of the continuous session of the senate, which began Wednesday and is still going on. to force a vote on the Voorhees bill; if so he is probably the only man in Washington who is. So far the much advertised and entirely needless contest of physical endurance has fulfilled public expectation to the dot. It has accomplished nothing, except to put a lot of ordinarily pleasant tempered, elderly gentlemen into a very bad humor, by causing them to lose their accustomed rest. It is now said that Mr. Cleveland insisted upon this test being made, not because he expected a vote to be reached on the Voorhees bill, but because of his belief that it would result in stirsing up public indignation towards the senators because of their refusal vote on the bill. How long the test is to be continued is, of course, problematical, but it will not surprise those who know how the more conservative senators on both sides feel about the matter to see it end any hour by their acceptance of a compromise The proposition to adjourn or take a two weeks’ recess as soon as the* repealers became satisfied that a vote could not be reached met with little favor, the majority of the senators seeming to be determined that neither recess nor adjournment shall be had until the matter is disposed of. To keep a quoram of senators on the floor constant calls of the senate are required and the call may prove fruitless at any hour.

A ring of real estate speculators which has for some years been in control of the municipal affairs of the District of Columbia so far as they relate to the expenditure of money for street improvements and sewers is now behind one of the most bold faced jobs ever attempted to be put through congress. This ring has large investments in suburban property, and not satisfied with getting a much larger share of the money annually appropriated for street improvements, etc., than it had any claim to, it now proposes that congress shall authorize the commissioners of the District of Columbia to issue $10,000,000 worth of bonds—practically United States bonds —the entire amount to be spent in sewers and street improvements, the lion’s share of which would, of course, be spent upon the suburban property owned by the ring, which includes in its membership senators and representatives. The ring has secured the endorsement of the commissioners to the bond job, but that was not a difficult feat, as every civil commissioner the district has had for years has virtually been the creature of this ring, and those who have dared to object to obeying any of its decrees have never served more than one term. Nine-tenths of the people are opposed to increasing the already outrageously large debt of the District of Columbia by any further issue of bonds,’ even if the money were to be fairly spent, but the peculiar form of government here gives them no chance to make themselves heard or their influence felt, the commissioners always acting on the Vanderbilt system. When this matter gets before congress some member with a good stiff backbone, which can neither be bent by money nor social influence—twin aids of crooked legislation—will have an opportunity ta make reputation by a complete expose of the objects of this ring.

A fair idea of the extent to which the holding of office in the government departments at Washington has been made a family snap is given by one of the reports made by the joint congressional committee which is engaged in investigating the workings of the departmental service. The figures in this report are decidedly interesting. They show that very nearly onefourth of the 17,599 United States employes at Washington have one or more relatives in office, and that a considerable proportion of them have from two to seven relatives in office, while two individuals have nine relatives each upon Uncle Sam’s pay rolls. This showing is made up from statements made by the office-holders and does not include distant relatives.

It seems that while some of the sensational newspapers were crediting the new Chinese minister with making threats of re-

' taliation in case the Geary law | was enforced that moon faced I diplomat was engaged in a far l more pacific task—that of assuring Secretary Gresham that if the law was amended so as to give the Chinese in the United States a reasonable time to register he would pledge his government to see that they registered. The McCreary bill which now has the right of way in the house until disposed of amends the Geary law so as to give the Chinese six months to register, and modify it in several other ways. It is thought that the bill for the repeal of the Federal election laws, which was passed by the house this week, will be amended by the senate before it passes that body. Many Democrats who voted for it in the house consider it entirely too sweeping and will be pleased to see it amended.

Pomeroy’s Advance Thought is red hot for free coinage of silver into full legal tender money for the payment of any and all debts maturing in the United States. During the past summer its editor has been a day and night student in the Library of the British Museum, in London, and has dug out several chapters of important facts of history relating to the coinage of gold and silver, the making and use of money in England, and many other matters of commanding interest that will appear from month to month, from copy already prepared, and commencing with the October number. He has learned who is benefitted by gold coinage. Why the coinage of silver here in the United States is so opposed in London, by Jews and other money lenders, and why the American laborer is so much better as a mechanic, and does so much more work than an English working man. Advance Thought is sent one year for one dollar. Ten copies ordered at one time for five dollars. Address M. M. Pomeroy, World Building, New York City.

Perhaps some of our readers would like to know in - what respect Chamberland’s Cough Remedy is better than any other. We will tell you. When this Remedy is taken as soon as a cold has been contracted, and befoie it has become settled in the system, it will counteract the effect of the cold and greatly lessen its severity, and it is the only remedy that will do this. It acts in perfect harmony with nature and aids nature in relieving the lungs, opening the secretions, liquefying the mucus and causing its expulsion from the air cells of the lungs and restoring the system to a strong and healthy condition. No other remedy in the market possesses these remarkable properties. No other will cure a cold so quickly. For sale by F. B. Meyer, the druggist.

Literary Note For October.

Marion Crawford, opens up a new line of thought in his article entitled “Rome, the Capital of a New Republic,” appearing in the October Cosmopolitan. It is not likely that the October number will have the success which attended that for September. The extraordinary spectacle was presented of a 124-cent magazjne selling for 50 and 75 cents, and many hundreds were even sold at $1 each. Probably the record remains without a parallel, in periodical sales, of a number proving so interesting that, after 211,000 copies had been sold, the News Company had orders for 50,000 more than they could supply, while dealers in various parts of the country, discovering the esteem in which the magazine was held, immediately raised their prices to double, treble, quadruple and in many cases to eight times the regular price. The publishers do not yet know what their real circulation is, owing to the limited capacity of their presses; but machinery is being out in place which will supply an edition for December exceeding 300,000, and during that month it will be possible to determine just how many Cosmopolitans the public will buy.

“I consider Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy a specific for Croup. It is very pleasant to take, which is one of the most important requisites where a cough remedy is intended for use among children, I have known of cases of croup where I know the life of the little one was saved by the use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.” J. J. LaGrange, druggist, Avoca, Neb. 50 cent bottles for sale by F. B. Meyer, druggist.

Was It Hypnotism?

From West Shore. Portland. O*e., Cc . 18. 'OO. As I was coming down t >wn a few days ago I met Grizzly in the car, and as we were old chummies and had not seen each other for a few weeks, I greeted him very cordially. “What's hew in the papers this morning?" I inquired to set the conversational ball comfortably rolling. “Paper isn’t out yet this week. Say, I hear they have discovered gold in California.” I looked at him a little curiously. and before I could make up my mind what he was driving at, he said: “No use talking, General Taylor is our man for president.” Then I looked at him rather closely to see if he showed any symptoms of insanity in his eye; but he was in appearance as rational as ever.

“Now that we’ve got the Mex lean war closed up in good shape and the Oregon question settled, it.is time we—” “Say,” said I, breaking in upon him, “are you crazy or just giving me a whirl of some kind?” He looked at me blankly for half a minute, and then a smile began to spread over his face. “I beg your pardon, old man, I believe I am getting a trifle off. You see, I got one of those for-ty-year-old dictionaries as a premium the other day for subscribing to a newspaper that is of no earthly good itself, and it just keeps my mind working about forty years behind the times. Let’s get off and take something.” Quill.

Rhinestones. Indianapolis News. Enough is as good as a feast—to the dyspeptic. Idleness has brought many a man to want—something to do to kill time. Frankness is probably a great virtue, but it is a greater menace to friendship. The preacher who is tried for heresy is the man who gets the benefit of the doubt. If there were no worse people in the world than ourselves it would be a mighty lonesome place. The reason that most of us don’t fall oftener is because we seldom meet with a profitable opportunity to stumble.

A purer medicine does not exist and it is guaranteed to do all that is claimed. Electric Bitters will cure all diseases of the Liver and Kidneys, will remove Pimples.

The troupe of colored players which held forth at the opera house last Saturday night had a better house than was thought. It was a very rank show, most of that kind generally are, but there is a class of people who always patronize such snaps, and when something refined and elevating appears, they curse it, because they think it’s of the same order as the one they attended.

Fendig was at Wheatfield last week, and while there purchased an old library of Dr. Deming, which among its contents are some pretty old volumes. We have one of the books, “Pearson’s Principles of Surgery,” which bears the date of 1783, and was printed in London. Several other interesting books were among the number he purchased, which are valuable as old relics. There were seven men in town last week from Illinois who were wanting to buy farms.
