No vote returned.
It is recomended that no proxies
be addmitted to the convention,
and that the delegates present be
authorized to cast the full vote of
the delegation.
It is further recomended that the
state central committee select the
temporary organization of the con
vention. John C. Watson,
WALT.M. SEELY, Chairman.
Secretary.
R. R. MlLLs, in a speech in Iowa,
says that "our wheat shipments are
falling off because our importations
are falling off." The records, on the
other hand, show that our foreign
trade was larger in the fiscal year
ended six weeks ago than it ever
was before in the whole history of
thecountr3'. It is the old story.
Mills doesn't know what he is talk
ing about.
New York Democratic and Mug
wump organs are very sure Secre
tary Blaine is not in sympathy with
his party. They declare "he is for
reciprosity," and "reciprocity is
antagonistic to protection." In the
meantime the relation between the
President and the Secretary are
most cordial, and no conventions of
Republicans assemble anywhere
that don't throw up their hats and
praise both the adminstration and
Mr. Blaine.
A Chicago, man has come for
ward with a novel World's Fair
suggestion. Instead of trying to
build some lofty structure, he says,
the thing to do is to dig the deepest
hole in the ground on record, say
ten miles deep. Besides the miner
al bonanzas that might be struck,
a great many geological problems
would be solved, and a lot of money
could be made by rigging the shaft
with an elevator and taking pas
sengers to the bottom.
The Louisiana farmers' alliance
has decided not to put a third party
ticket in the field! for the coming !
. , . . . . . ... A, ;
State election, but to act with the,
Democratic party to secure alliance :
nominees, as has been done in other t
southern states. That is the rule in

the south. "The alliance" was in-
tended for Ohio and Iowa and Ne-
I THH suit about to be b'ought

the owners of a jreat
amount of Nebraska property once
held by the late David Butler will
be annoying1 to men who supposed
that their titles were perfect, but
under our system of land transfers
such thing are bound to occur, fre
quently. The Torrens plan, under
which the state passes upon all
titles and guarantees them, is
simple and secures justice for all
parties. Some day it will be given
a trial in Nebraska. J lie Austra
lian system of land transfer will be
just as popular as the Australian
ballot.
TIN-PLATE TRADE VALEDIC
TORY. In the course of a retrospecto-
hisforical article the Colliery G
i ilia r-
(lain, London, says:
We may, therefore, take it for
granted that the tin-plate trade of i
the United Kiny-doni at any rate.
so far as the United States are con
cernedhas reached the zenith
- l power in the first half-year of 1891.

Guide to the Tin-I'late Nanufac
j turers" that of the tin. plate mills
I which were in active operation in
I June,377 "are closed until the end of
I July." It is said that the balance
will close for one week during each
of the four succeeding months
I This is undeniably done to raise the
natural price of tin-plates in this

marxe.. it is (lone yy a trust, a
combination, a syndicate. But
those who in the past have charged
that the Standard Oil Trust was a
direct result of Protection will be
found in the ranks of those "stroi

in Chicago and
elsewhere, who "must work and
work hard" for the Welsh tin-plate
trust.
"WAS IT SUICIDE?"
Why marriage is sometimes a
failure is an interesting and im
portant question to all; and every
one, married or single, should read
the absorbing story with the above
title, by the poet novelist Klla
Wheeler Wilcox, written in that
popular author's most forcible
style, which is published in the
September number of that always
bright periodical Demorest's
Family Magazine. It
contains,
besides, an abundance
of Other
good reading matter, just the sort
that one enjo3's at this season.
There is a splendid article, fully
illustrated, about "Brazil;" "A Poet
at Home" tells about Klla Wheeler
Wilcox and her lovely home, and
with.it are pictures of "the poet's
corner" and portraits of her in some
of her noted gowns; whether -you
ever enjoyed that rare sport moose
hunting or not, you will be inter
ested in "A Stray Shot at a Moose,"
written by the fortunate amateur
sportsman who brought down his
game at the first shot, which is also
finely illustrated. "A Seven Day's
Tramp and What it Cost" describes
a "tramp" made by eight girls and
a chaperon, and the chaperon tells
the story; then there are stories and
poems, and the various depart
ments are replete with useful and
amusing matter, ana tnere are
nearly 200 illustrations, besides a
beautiful water-color, 'Play ball Pa!'
which appeals to every admirer
and devotee of baseball. And this
is only a fair sample of what one
gets monthly in this ideal Family
Magazine, which is published for
$2 a year, by W.Jennings Demorest,
