The indications are that oar merchants will hare the best holiday trade
this season they have bad for some
years.
Two transportation lines will soon be
making regular trips between Havana
and southern Florida points. Cnba
will shortly be the favorite winter re sort for Americans.
Now that we have the Philippines
we can begin to eonsider the question what we shall do with them. If we
should find it unprofitable to hold them
we can at any 1 time close them out a job lot at a good profit.
One would hardly expect the following resolution, which will be offered at the Federation of Labor convention at Kansas City, to come from the gallant stae of Kentucky: Resolved, That the National Convention of the American Federation of Labor draft resolutions, which shall be placed before congress, and thereby have laws passed by which our government will remove all women in its employment and thereby inaugurate a precedent for the removal of woman from the erery-day walks of life and the relegation ot her to the home.
In his very interesting letter from New Mexico, printed in the Palladium yesterday, Indian Agent Reynolds enters a protest against the expansion policy of this government. He seems to be unduly impressed with the slow progress that has been made in civilizing the natives of that locality. "What nonsense," says he, "to talk about annexing such a horde ot barbarians to the United States and undertake to govern them." We would remind Mr. Reynolds that we are not exactly annexing the horde of barbarians in the islands we have acquired but we are annexing their territory. That sort of annexing has been going on ever since this government was established. We have not succoeded very well in governicg the native Indians of this country, but that fact would hardly be used now as evidence that we made a mistake in extending this government from Atlantic to Pacific. It is not supposed that we will have perfectly smooth eailicg in governing the islands we have taen in. The choise is between trouble with our people who are not barbarians but whi must be kept in fairly lucrative employment, or trouble with natives on the islands that we need and must have to expand our commerce. Theories, liowever beautiful, must fade before stern realities. So Car as assimilating these islands is concerned it mav be said we have not assimilated the Pueblo Indians, and yet no one would advocate taking New Mexico out of fur jurisdiction. The body politic is somewhat like the human body. A good deal has to be taken in that does not assimilate. " We never heard of anybody who quit eating on that account.

- The circuit court is in session all this week, but there will no trials. The time will be spent in the calling of the docket and the making up of issues. Judge Fox is here this week and Judge Ribb will be here next week. The young men of this city ate certainly trying to boom up Richmond. Tne following taken from the Cincinnati Enquirer speaks fo itself: "The wheelmen of Richmond. Indiana, are made of the right stuff. They intend to give a theatrical performance
next Thursday night at Richmond, for
the purpose of raising funds to purchase necessary paraphernalia which they intend to use at a society circus that Will be given in July, J899,for the benefit of the St. Stephen's hospital. That popular L. A. W. official, Barry Normandin, is behind the worthy cb ject. The benefit will be given under the auapiees of i he Richmond members of the L. A. W." The only way to boom a city is to let the world know that it is alive and what talent it has in all branches of business and amusements. The L.A W. entertainment should be well patronized. See the program for the seven musical ages of man, Musical club concert.

Evolution of a Paris Gown. j The Paris gown that burets full blow j
on the eye cf the elient is not, as the public believe a creation of the great
dressmakct himself, nor is the great
dressmaker responsible for the fashion, j This model cowu is the result cf an al j
biost infinite collaboration. Up In th
garrets t.f the crisscross street" live a
modest class of artists that make proj-'
sets. They gtt tbeir inspiration from
Old portraits at the Louvrt,, at Ver--. failles, f rem elegant women in th
driveways of the Bois or from some hazard. They modify, develop, combine,
following a drift which they da .uut
control, till thev have prodnced a novel
idea that the public is likelv to acceDt '
and that is therefore salable. Their proj j
ects are uira in SKetcne a, ana triey are i
known as marchaads H - "-o;;nis. Others
of these specialists o their proj
ects in clocb and vu as mar iliands de modeles. it.'se occupy a more important rack than the first, since the models form a demonstration
that the ideas can be realized. The
model merchant is in relation with the
manufacture j, who provide her with
the new materials. Scribuor's.
