TnE recent rains o'ught to be an in
centive to tbe-merchant9 of Platts-
mouth to hold a street fair.
Anothek oue of those calamity
abolishing rains fell last night and
this morning and now the pessimistic
howlers are sad.
Thk wtge9 paid by the railroad com
panies in 1S98 amounted to the enor
mous sum of $133,C55,618,au increase of
$29,4o4,037 over the preceding year.
One more ruin like the one of last
week and it will be next to impossible
to get enough men to take care of the
Nebraska corn crop. Step ladders
will be necessary to reach the corn, so
fast is it growing.
MkI BRYAN, says the St. Paul Dis
patch, ought to get om-i consolation
out of the thought th t if this country
is wrecked on the roi-fc of imperialism
it will save it from gong to smash on
the gold standard.
IN 1S92, the big year of American
foreign trade, the tirat billion-dollar
year of tun -emn try's history, the
value of manufactured exports was
$158,5:0,937; the year ending June 30
their value was $338,607,794.
Says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat:
"Democrats must not forget that
Thomas Jefferson, who wrote the De
claration of Independence, annexed
the Louisiana purchase without giving
the slightest attention to the consent
of the governed."
The president h:m issued orders to

Notwithstanding the agricultural
exports for tho yesir entliny June 30
were $Si,0'O.0iO !-hs th;ii the previous
year, the total ports of all kinds
was only about $3,ino,C;u less. The
LlilTerer.co was nearly made up by an
increase of S:!,000,(X0 in tho amount
of manufactures sent abroad. The
Dingley law is getting all kinds of
vindications.
The Louisville Kicker, edited by G.
C. Klckerj which was started for the
purpose of kicking against everythir g
that is not in keeping with the ideas
of the demo-pop, is now kickig"very
strong because it has been refused
transmission through the mails as
second-class matter. Very little of its

is a question whether or not it is a for

LAW WILL UK STRONU I'OK GOLD.
The interview with Mr. II. II.
llanna, chairman of the Indianapolis
monetary convention, expressing ap
proval of the plans for currency legis
lation already agreed upon by the
caucus committee of the house and the
finance committee of the senate, fur
nishes gratifying assurance that the
currency bill that will be presented to
the fifty-sixth congress will unquali
fiedly recognize gold as the fixed
monetary standard of the country,says
the Chicago Times-Herald. Having
been J.n.S9n3u!taV3u '.Titatn'e.'members
oi the senate fiaance committee at
their recent meeting at Narrapansett
Pier, Mr. Hanna is in a position to
speak authoritatively regarding the
prospects for financial legislation
That he was invited to tta council of
the committee will doubtless surprise
the party trimmers, who have always
opposed the scheme of currency re
form proposed by the Indianapo'.i
monetary convention. But the po
litical trimmers on the currency ques
tion have had their day. The time
for evasion and equivocation is past.
The gold standard party must take
counsel of such men as Mr. Hanna,
who stands for honest currency reform
and who represents the intelligent
business interests of this country.
. The party in power has been pre
vented by a silver majority in the sen
ate from redeeming its promises made
at St. Louis, to give the gold standard
"the validity and vitality of law."
With a sound money majority in both
houses of the fifty-tlxth congress there
is every reason to expect tKe enact
ment of a law "coasistsrt in abroad
and courageous way with the pledge
offered the people in the money plack
of the St. Louis platform."
PHILIPPINES AND THE REPUBLICANS
Sod at or Burrows of Michigan, who
is an anti-expansion ffet,saya that if the
end of the Philippine war is not in
sight next year "the situation will be
to the disadvantage of the republican
party." There is a very strong prob
ability that the war will be ended be
fore the national conventions, early
next summer, meet. The increase
under way, however, when the next 1
national conventions meet this condi
tion would not necessarily injure the
republicans. It would simply provoke
an inquiry as to who was responsible
for the war in the first place, and that
would exonerate the republican party.
The men who wanted the treaty de
feateflrand who voted against it when
it came up in the senate are among
the person who are responsible for
the war. All of ' those except an in
significant fraction are democrats. '.A'-l
large share of the responsibility for
the war also belongs to the men who
opposed the bill for the creation of an
army of 100,000 men. These too, were
almost all democrats.
Here are some facts which will come
out in a very impressive way next sum
mer if the war in the Philippines
should be still in progress at that time.
These facts will be destructive to tie
democratic party. Many men were
declaiming from the beginning of the
war against all purpose to obtain any
territory fr5m Spain. These men
would have given up even Porto Rico.
They would give it up now, notwith
standing its cession by the treaty, if
they could bring this about. All
these persons are democrats. The
Bryans, Gormans, Vesta, Cockrells,
Stones and the rest of the men who
which is being made in the army
points in that direction. The trouble
heretofore has been that Otis did not
have enough men to garrison the
towns which were captured. This
drawback will not exist when the cam
paign next fall opens, says the Globe
Democrat. Even if the war should chance to be
have been howling against expansion
and all of those who were in congress
voted against all measures calculated
to strengthen the hands of the govern
ment in the war are the persons who
responsible for the conflict, and they.
with a few trifling exceptions, are i
democrats. It is reasonably certain j
that American sovereignty will be ac-.

There can be ne good reason offered why Platts
mouth should not hold a Street Fair this fall. Other
towns, not so large-as Plattsmouth, have conducted such
enterprises with great success. It is an entirely new
idea for this part of the state and this fact would insure
largfe crowds. The agricultural exhibits, with the mam
moth crops that are now growing, could be the finest in
the history of Cass county.
A number of merchants of the city have expressed
their willingness to contribute from $50 to $100 toward
the enterprise and if all of them would take hold of the
project, it would be an easy matter to raise SI, 000 or
SI, 200, which would be an ample sum to provide suitable
amusements, music, etc. It would be a lasting adver
tisement for the city and even if the merchants did not
get their money back at the time, it would only be a
short time until they would.
Hastings and Lincoln are the only cities in the state
which at present have such plans on foot. The former
city raised $1,"400 in a half day. Is there any reason
why Plattsmouth cannot do as well
By securing reduced railroad ra-tes, large crowds
could be attracted from every town in the county and
also from neighboring towns in Mills county, Ia.
Now is the time to act.

INFORMATION &f OPINION.
The Mutual Life Insurance company
of New York has instituted proceed
ings against Thomas Chase and wife
of Milligan, Tenn., in wlich it alleges
that Chase, who is supposed to have
died In February, is not dead, and that
$20,000 collected by the supposed
widow was fraudulently paid. Tbe
bill enjoins four baiks. In which the
money is deposited, from paying it to
Mrs. Chase's order. An order has
also been secured allowing the grave
in which Chise is supposed to have
been buried to bo searched.
Three hundred years ago, in Eng
land, it was customary to add beer to
mortar to produce the required con
sistency. It was asserted that tbe beer
rendered the mortar more durable
than if it were made with water. I',
is certain that the workmen oft i
tasted the beer, perhaps to convince
themselves that it was of the proper
strength and flavor.

There are certain languagea which,
although they are still spoken and
written, are to all intents and pur
poses dead. For in st iii co, Icelandic is
practically identical with the dead
Norse language, out of which the
Scandinavian tongues have grown.
Provencal, the ancient language
of Provincia, and the speech in which
the Troubadours sang, has now sunk
to the level of a pa tois,al though a cer-

efforts to revive it as a literary lan
guage. Hebrew, again, though still
spoken, is to all intents and purposes
dead ia the sense that Greek and Latin
Hie. Cornish, Manx and the old mys
terious Romany tongue are also exam
ples which should be mentioned in
this connection.

cruiser. Reina Mercedes, and other
Spanish vessels captured in the late
war has aroused a suspicion that Spain
is trying to buy the vessels back. The
navy department will sell none of the
vessels. The Mercedes is not worth
repairing and will be kept merely as a
relic.

The eagle, as an emblem of author
ity, is so old that it would be impos
sible to clearly trace its origin. It is
found upon the most ancient sculptures
that have yet been discovered, and
was no doubt one of the very oldest of
the totems, or tribe signs. The early
Persian empire appears to be the first
which adopted it as an imperial em
blem. Among the Greeks the eagle
was the emblem of Jove. The Romans
also adopted the eagle as their stand
ard, and so it became the token of
Roman dominion. When Constantino
became emperor he adopted the
double beaded eagle as the insignia of
his authority over east and west,

shown by an exciting struggle be

rolled into the water, and to get them
the constable paddled out in a punt
This drew the notice of tbe male swan,
which deserted his consort and the
brood of cygnet, and went for the con
stable with great fury. Once or twice
he almost upset the punt by causing
the constable to overbalance it in sav
ing his legs from the bird's beak. It
was only with difficulty end risk that
the balls were recovered. The swan
then followed the punt to the bank,
makiog vicious darts at the constable.

fl Large Force fl waits the Arrival
of trje New Candidate For
the Presidency.
Havana, Aug. 4. General Juan
Isidro Jimincz, when his attention was
called today to a cable summary of
an alleged declaration made by him
here recently and published in tbe
United States to the effect that he was
about to proceed to the United States
to organize an expedition against the
existing government of San Domingo,
replied that ho had not made the
statement attributed to him. He went
on to say that it was quite unneces
sary to proclaim himself hostile to the
present government, as it could not
possibly last beyond August 15.
"I did hear," he continued, "that
Heureaux was sending men to Cuba
to kill me, but I know nothing what
ever regarding the plot to kill him. I
had no connection and have no con
nection with Ramon Caceras, who did
the shooting. I do not believe that
the United States will interfere with
my government in San Domingo,
which will be a government peaceful
and helpful to all, for the United
States did not interfere with the gov
ernment of Heureaux, who robbed and
murdered for fourteen years."
Leader Is Sore ef Welcome.
General Jiminez admits that he has
often been to the United States in
cognito, but says he has not had in
terviews with official persons. He
considers that there is no need of
promoting expeditions to land in San
D miogo, as there already are 1,000
men waiting for him, a force which
he deems quite sufficient for his pur
poses. Referring to the future relations of
San Domingo with the United States
he expressed a desire to be on friendly
terms with Washingtonvand said he
could count on American sympathy.
Gomez, he referred to as "esteemed
by all classes of Dominicans, but not
sought for as president."
The people of San Domingo, he de
clared, are impetuous and are urging
him to come to thorn at once, but for a
time he prefers delay, "as each day Is
worth a battle won."
GOATS ARE SOLD AS MUTTON.
Thousands of AaKra Are Pieced Upon
Markets of Chicago.
CllICAOO, Aug. 4. The Daily News
Bays: Thousands of goats are brought,
slaughtered and placed upon the mar
kets of Chicago and sold as mutton by
some packers at the stockyards. This
traffic is carried on most extensively
during the winter and early spring up
to and including the month of April.
The goats and kids are of the Angora
kind and come from the northwest,
while a few are shipped in from the
south. The latter are of the common
goat species and do not find as ready a
sale as the Angoras.
Besides being very palatable as a
food, the Angora goat and kid are
used for other purposes. The skins of
the goats are usod for making floor
mats and robes for babies, while the
skin of the kid is used in trimming
furs.
Dr. W. S. Devoe of the Bureau of
Animal Industry, when asked today in
regard to goats being sold for mutton,
said: "They certainly are quite free
from disease, are fat and make ex
cellent eating. Of course the very
common 'billy' goat would have a ten
dency to bo strong and have a bad
odor. There is no law to prevent them
being sold and when we find them in
tho packing houses they are inspected
the same as any other carcass."
The records of the yards show that
some weeks as high as 8,000 goats have
been received.
Washington, Aug. 4. Referring
to the reports that goat meat is being
sold in some of the western cities as
mutton. Dr. Salmon, chief of the
Bureau of Animal Industry, said today
that the law provided only for the in
spection of cattle, sheep and hogs and
that nothing Bhort of congressional ac
tion would remedy the defect. Dr.
Salmon said, however, that he did not
anticipate much danger from the use
of goat meat, as goats were generally
healthy animals.

START A BANK ACCOUNT.
Erery Woman Who Could Ought tm
Have a Check Book.
A business woman, whose experience
has been long and successful, said to
me the other day: "If I were asked
to give the best advice I could think
of for young women who are earning
their awn living, or who have the
cares and expenses of a household to
look after, and if I had to confine my
self to Just four words, I should say,
'Start a bank account.' It is an easy
matter to do so nowadays, when both
the saving's banks and others offer
women every opportunity and Induce
ment. Beaides, it is a good thing to
do for several reasons. It fosters a
feeling ef Independence and develops
buatneM-ltke habits, two essentials for
ev business) woman. Then, too, it is a
convenient and desirable thing to pay
bills by means of checks where it U
possible to do so. It preserves a rec
ord of the transaction and frequently
prevents annoyances and mistakes. To
ay way of thinking, a bank aeount,
even theugh It be a small one, should
be looked pea as a necessity rather
than a luxury by every woman who ha.t
business affairs of any consequence
whatever." Albany Times-Union.

Doctors Can't
Cure It!
Contagious blood poison is absolutely
beyond the skill of the doctors. They
may dose a patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease ; on tlie
other hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. S. 8. S. is tho only cure
for this terrible affliction, Iecanso it id
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of the disease and forces it
from the system.
I was afflicted with Blond Poison, and the
best doctors did me no kwmI, OnmKli I took
their trcntiiM'iit fal t h
fully. In fact, I m-mied
to ft wnr nil the
while. I took almost
every go-culled lilood
remedy. Hit they til not
seem to rciu-lt the dis
ease, and luid no efTVct
whatever. I was 1 1 s
heartem d, for It seemed
that I would never lie
Cured. At the advice of
a friend I then took
8. h. ts., and lc(an to i m
rrove. 1 continued the
medicine, and It cored me completely, imti.i
lngupmy health and lnereasinK niy apix'tite.
Although this was ten years asro, I have never
ret had a 81ku of the disease to re tu rn .

It is like self-destruction to continue
to take potash and mercury ; besides
totally destroying the digestion, they
dry up the marrow in the liones, pro
ducing a stiffness and swelling of the
joints, causing the hair to fall out, and
completely wrecking the system.
