" " tj-wysuiuiwpuiurrninu-me-uowns," but If they did It would ho fjund tliat in this city the spirit ot democracy has repud lated the merchant tailor to an extent almost un precedented in a plsce of this slse. The greater portion of welt-to do business men look with disdain on the tailor's frills, and those who do have their clothes made to order are In many instances those least able to bear the extra expense. Nearly every body buys ready made clothing. If you don't believe it, count theclothlng stores and then the tailoring establishments. A long time ago, as long as six months in sows Instances, the preparations for the coming battle of the ballots in this city were commenced. Some of the men whose names are now enrolled on one of the two tickets have labored with more or less dill genee and persistency for a half year to at taia their ambition, and a number of those whose political aspirations were put to sleep ia the conventions, devoted an equal amount of time to saving the country in general and nursing their own boomlsts In particular. For weeks and months candidates have neg lected their business, and their religion, in the frantic chase after that delusive and elusive thing, politics, and they have thrown away time, bad cigars, aud, mayhaps, con siderable money with reckleai indifference, They have cultivated a real, live campaign smirk and kept constantly on tap a sickly sort of stuff which they have sought to palm off aa the milk of human kindness. And now the nominations are all made and the ones who are fortunate (or unfor tunate) euough to have secured places on the tickets are waiting for the result of Tues day's election. None or the candidates for the more Important offices has, at this writ ing, aa absolute walkover. Fear and hope have been doled out with impartiality. What are the prises sought for I Hut paltry trliea,to be sure; not wcrth the striving for. " But they'are 'offices, and men are so constituted tat they will actually throw away valuable time and spend several times as much mosey aa they can expect to re ceive, simply for tha aake ot holding office. Of course nearly every man who is elected next week will aay to himself, "This is but a beginning next time I'll try for something better, and I'll be in a position to get it." And most of them will delude themselves with a vain hope. For in politics in this city and county, and the state too, for that matter, there U 110 line of promotion, aud the fact that you hold office or have held office, is quite likely to be made tbe excuse for putting you on the shslt to make room for some one who baa not yet had a chance at the "public crib." It is generally supposed that municipal officers have unlimited op portunities for enriching themselves that the salary ia but a small part of the income to be derived. But this, like a great many other popular beliefs, baa only little founda tion in fact. Unless they are glaringly dis honest, the salaries named below will be, with possibly one exception, all the re numer ation candidates will receive, and after the campaign expenses have been paid, tbe larger portion of the first year's salary will have goitegUmsJMrtag.,Tbost, who will re ceive the smallest income are ia most cases tbe ones who have made tbe greatest out lay, A candidate for the city council can drop a00 ia ante-convention and aate-elec-Hon contests before be knows it.

If the excursionists who re turn I from the Hills Thursday have been hi vie to undcrstant the present condition ami future ksIIIIIUm of that country a good deal hss been Rained, It mutt Iw gratifying to Mr, Ilryan's friends, and thsy aro many, to note the fair ness with which Lincoln's, already famous congressman, Is being treated on all sides. With, perhaiif, one or two exceptions, his political adversaries have boon unanimous lis praise of his brilliant achievements. K epub Means whllo questioning tho wisdom of his doctrines have admired the tnanunr in which they have leoii prownted, and they have not hesltntal to say so It In a fact that tho iwges of history may bo searched In vain to Hud anothor Instance since tho early days of the govenmont, where udngrMtmin on serving his llrst term has mails such n decided Impression 011 the country at large. A fow people wero wont tossy, "Mr. ilrynn shin us all right at home, but his light will bo put out very quickly when ho takui hi pi tee In congress." Tho young democratic states man from Nebraska has demonstrated his ability to cope with tho ablest talent, and his light Is still burning. Even the stralghtest republicans must feel n certain amount of pride In the success of tho "boy con gross man." He reflects credit ukm the city, the district and the state. There died In this city this week a man who, actuated by solflsli motives It Is true, has done a great deal to advertlss Lincoln.

DEATH OF PAUL MAYER. ast Sunday, after a short illness, Paul, (Infant eon of Mr. and Mrs. Charles prer, breathed its last, and at the age of fi months and eleven days leaves heart en parents and a circle of many friends relatives to mourn its untimely end. ,0 little one was the first bora Into a house uld where it was fairly idolized by all. kd the sad affliction comes to the family as ,huiisrbolt from a clear skv. Provlouslv little Paul has enjoyed the best ot health, every attention poasble was given him and every care ot most devout and loving parents were lavishly bestowed. The fu neral took place from the family residence 031 south Eleventh street, Monday after noon at 3 o'clock, and the remains were de posited in a vault at Wyuka pending future Interment. The following lines are respect fully dedicated to the memory of deceased: IN MXHORV or UTTLK PAUL. 'The Lortlgtveth and the Lord laktth away llUuta be the name of the Loi-d." How precious the home that Is blessed With llttlo ones, many or few, For they are tho angels that guide us And hold us to ways that are true. Bueh nhome Is a paradlso, truly, A portion of heaven on earth; And fortunate they who possess them, Forgold cannot measure their worthy But oft are the little ones taken, And wo are loft s idly to mourn ' For the deal onus who left us so early, In the first flush of beautiful morn. Just three months ago our darling Came to gladden our hearts for a time; Put Uod has seen fit to take him To dwell in n higher ell mo. And our home Is sod and lonely, Forwe miss our dear little Paul; No moro on earth will he feel our kiss Or hear us when we call . The precious life that budded here, That by "Our Father" was given. Has been recalled by tho solfsnmo hand To bloom mid the flowers of heaven. --J.E. M. Merit Wins, It Always Wins. When the Interior Decorative company announced to the public, about a year ago that they would open a resort where the finest goods obtainable in bouse decora tlons would be kept on hand to supply a growing demand for these goods, few people ( innunit aieuier crewn 1 or carry; ingout suoh intentions, The competitor joined with the croakers in saying: "it won't pay aint no people here to buy such flue goods, etc." But the opening of the place and the class of hangings and other decora tions shown from time to time since then, haa been the causs for disappointment to the aforesaid croakers and genuine delight to tbe class of people that appreciate high class goods and superior work. Tbe company's present location, 1338 O street, presents to tbe visitor, ow ot the most elaborate and finest wall paper emporiums to be found any where.
