EXACTLY OF A SIZE.
Bt Hit. P. J. Bru. ut The Voic.
Have joa seen a sort of puzzle
They are giving at the (tore?
Two little card board pieces
Three inches long or more;
So shaped with c nin es and angles,
Almost any one would swear
That this ticket here is larger
Than its fellow over there:
But 't is simply an illusion
That deceives the best of eyes,
You put 'em both together
They're exactly of a size.
. ClIOKCS:
Exactly of a size, boys,
Exactly of a size;
Don't jump at a conclusion
Xor always trust your eyes;
For things may seom as different
As solid truth and lies,
Yet be, when put together, boys,
Exactly of a size.
You have seen the two old parties,
There's not a doubt of that;
The woollej-eyed republican,
Arid moss-grown democrat;
With histories so different
They stand out side by sido,
One looking pusillanimous,
The other grand and wide;
But appearance is deceiving.
And, to your great surprise,
You put 'em both together
They're exactly of a size. (Chorus.)
Those parties build their platforms
Of old worm-eaten plank3.
Expressing, quite ambiguously,
Anathemas and thanks
On ill-assorted entities,
From silver down to sin,
All worded most adroitly
To draw the voters In;
There seems to bo soma difference,
But if you 're sharp and wise,
You put 'em both together,
They're exictiy of a size. (Chorus.)
And then how soon there follow
The candidates of each,
. To fill the streets with torchlights,
Tho atmosphere with speech,
To tickle all the rabble
With their antiquated straws,
And crack old mildewed chestnuts
'Mid the wildest of applause;
You think they differentiate
Between their party ties,
But put 'em both together,
. ' They 're exactly of a size. (Chorus.)
Is not this the greatest puzzle,
Yes. the most satanic game, ' " " '
That things can look so different
And yet be just the same?
That Christians are so blinded
As never to compare
The license that they sanction
With the whiskey that they share!
Let us leave the league unholy,
And combat it till it dies,
For, put 'em both together,
They're exactly of a size. (Uhjrus.)

To the Honorable the Senate
assembled:
The undersigned, citizens of the United States, would respectfully represent:
That the business of option sllifgand the selling of products which have no existence ii a great and growing
evil, and a menace to the prosperity of the American farmer:
That these option sales, and offerings, are prodigious, and exceed the entire products of the articles dealt in
many thousand times:
That it is not unusual for as much wheat to he sold in a day as there is of actual wheat received in a yer:
That these enormcus sales of products which have no real existence have the same tendency to reduce values
of actual products as would an over production of those articles, if such over production were possible:
That the losses inflicted upon thi agriculturists of the country bj these sales are enormous, and are placed by
the most competent and best informed men at from f 100,000, ooo to $150,000,000 per annum.
That the effect of these option sales is to reduce the value of all grain, cotton and swinegrown, by mor: than
ten per cent: ,
Tfcat the sum of ten per cent on
prosperity to the American farmer: i
That these option sales, or sales of products which have no existence, and are never delivered or intended to
be deliyered, are cot in any manner necessary to the sale or marketing of actual products that the system contra
venes honest business principles and methods, and is used to enable ldlespeculatorsand traders to absorb the profits
of others without labor to themselves that it is opposed to the commercial genius and spirit of the age, and not in
harmony with Christian progress and civilization, as it tends to make the masses the unwilling servitors of the
classes, and to unjustly deprive producers of the fruits of honest industry. t
Your memorialists would further respectfully represent that the depression of the value of farm products from
these enormous sales of products which
the value of. farming lands in the United States, and is thus doubly an injury to all engaged in agricultural pursuits.
That there are no means of ascertaining the exact loss in value in agricultural lands, but that areduction often
per cent on the lands devoted to the production of corn, wheat, rye, oats, barley and buckwheat for 1S88 would
amount to the gross sum of $438,843,000; and that the same per cent of loss on the hay and pasture lands for the
same year would amount to 54,367,61 2, or a total of $593,210,612:
That your memoralists have no doubt that these estimates are largely within the sum of the actual loss from
the cause named.
Your memorilists would also further respectfully represent, that the business of option selling is of the nature of
gambling; that it is demoralizing in its tendencies, and that it dots not produce a benefit to the class engaged in it
at all comparable to the injury it inflicts upon the agricultural classes and the community at large. '
Your memoral.-sts therefore respectfully pray that you will pass into law what is known as the Butterworth bill,
for the prevention ot such option dealing, or that you will in your wisdom devise some preventative measure equally
as effective as said Butterworth bill.
And your memoralists will ever pray, etc.

FRANCE AND BULGARIA.
Diplomatic Relations Severed
tween the Two Countries.
Be-
POLITICS OF THE POPE.
Leo XIII. Disconcerts French Radical by
Declining to Take the Aggressive.
Rough Trip of British Steamer.
Other Foreign New.
Sofia, Deo. 13. The French diplomat
here has broken his relations with the
Bulgarian authorities to accede to tho
demand of France that a journalist
named Chadonine, who was recently ex.
polled from the country, be allowed to
eminent, protested against the expulsion
return. The French charge d'affairs, M.
Lanet, in a note to the Bulgarian gov-
of the journalist as a flagrant and pre"
meditated violation of the treaties ex
isting between France and Bulgaria. In
reply the Bulgarian government sent a
note sayin? that Chadonine had been
systematically sending tho French press
lying and calumnious stories about Bul
garia, and that the Bulgarian govern
ment was unable to rescind the order of
expulsion, but hoped that the incident
would not disturb the good relations
existing between Bulgaria and France.
The French government then ordered
M. Lanet to sever diplomatic relations
with Bulgaria. The event has caused
great uneasiness in political circles.
The Pope's Politics.
Paws, Dec. 15. The silence which
the French bishops have maintained
since the question of the separation of
church and state in France was raised
has caused much amazement in political
circles, and greatly disconcerted the
Radicals. It was expected that the re
cent prosecution of the archbishop of
Aix would have led the clergy to take
some rash and foolish step, but they
seem to have discounted events and are
acting with remarkable coolness. This
is. of course, largely due to the circular
which the pope has addressed to the
French prelates, enjoining them to re
frain from comment on the action of the
government and censuring anti-ministerial
utterances.
The members of the triple alliance
have been considerably surprised by tho
firmness of the position adopted by the
Vatican. It was supposed that the pope
would have taken up an attitude dis
tinctly hostile to France.
A Ghastly Incident.
Dublin, Dec. 15. A ghastly incident
is reported from Bessbrook. Theodore
Ford, tho Protestant rector of that place,
was opening his door, when he was hor
rified by the spectacle of a coffin, con
taining a dead body, on the steps of his
house. The reverend gentleman sent
for the police. The body proved to bo
that of Patrick Kenny, who had been
buried a fortnight before in a Catholic
church yard at Mullagloss. Kenny was
a Catholic who had married a Protestant
woman and joined the Protestant faith.
His bnrial in the same gronnd with the
Catholics excited much bitter feeling,
and in consequence the body had been
resurrected by parties unknown and
taken to the house of the minister who
hail performed Kenny's marriage cere
mony. When the widow heard of the
affair she went into convulsions. Tho
police caused the remains to berein
terred in a Protestant churchyard at
Carnlongli.
Rnngh Trip or a British Steamer.
London, Dec. 15. Tho steamer Gleo

and reports a most extraordinary rough
passage. In fact she came within an ace
of foundering, and her officers and pas
sengers aiiree that their deliverance
from death was almost miraculous. The

Wrecked a Depot.
London, Dec. 15. A serious railroad
accident occurred at Accrinton, Lanca
shire, on the Lancashire and Yorkshire
railroad. A freight train jumped the
track and burst into the wall of a freight
depot, which collapsed, burying several
persons in the ruins. One dead body has
been taken out and the search for others
continues. -

EXPORTS AM IMPORTS.
The Dalance of Trade Still Setting
Strongly in This Direction."
Our, Foreign Trade for November Condu
. clve of flood Market and Befr -:
Prices ITeai Ing of Important Case '
in tho Supreme CourU'
Washington, Dec. 15. The bureau of
statistics issued its Nummary statement
of imports and exports for the month
ending Qct. 31, 1391, and for . the. ten
months ending the same date, at the
same time giving a comparison with. the
corresponding periods of 1890.
From this summary it appears that the
Value of the imports of merchandise dur
ing the month of October was $80,835,
589, as compared with $72,550,279 for
October, 1890. The value of the imports
for the ten months in 1891 was $093,981.
691, as against $098,377,317 for tho ten
months ending Oct. 31, 1S90.
In the matter of exports the summary
shows that the total value of the exjwrts
during the month of October, 1891, was
about $102,000,000, as against $97,000,000
in the same month of 1890. During tho
ten months ending with Oct. 81.1 W) I,
tue value ot onrexports was $720,555,511
as against $000,529,999 for the corre
sponding ten months of 1890. There is
an increase in our exports since Jan.
of this year of $69,000,000 in round num
bers. Of these total exports during ten
months the agricultural products were
or tne vaine ot f.)j,4,4ia as compare!
with $181,285,253 for the ton months of
last year. The value of the manufac
tured products was 141.07fi.aS3 us
against $129,403,760 for the ten months
ot last year.
It will bo observed there has been an
increase of over $17,000,000 in agricul
tural products, and over $11,000,000 in
the exports of manufactured products.
It shows a very gratifying condition in
our foreign trade.
During the ten months mentioned the
excess of our exports over our imports,
or balance of trade in our favor, was
t35,'70,850. The increase in our exports
has been in breadstuffs over $22,000,000.
in cotton about $20,000,000, manufact
ures of cotton about $3,000,000, in manu
factures of iron and steel over $3,000,000,
in leather and manufactures of about
$1,500,000.
At the same time there has been a de
crease in the exports of mineral oils of
something over $4,000,000, of $10,000,000
in the exports of provisions and $3,500,
000 in the exports of wood and manu
factures. At the same time the condi
tion of our foreign trade in the way of
exports is very encouraging, as the indi
cations now are that the exports during
the month of November will be largely
in excess of what they were in Octoiwr,
and this large excess is mainly of agri
cultural products, all of which is condu
cive of gojd markets and better prices
for the fanner.
In the Supreme Court,
Washington, Due. 15. John II. Ames
of Lincoln, Neb., moved in tho United
States supreme court to dismiss, on a
technical le.d ground, the suit of James
F. Hilton, appellant, against James E.
Jones. The motion was opposed by W.
Hallera Phillips of this city in behalf of
Hilton, who also moved to get the case
down for a later day, to be heard in
connection with another case. The suit
involves the title to a large tract of land
in the vicinity of Lincoln said to be val
ued at $300,000.
Chief Justice Fuller of the United
States court dismissed, for want of juris
diction, the appeal of David L. Ham
mon et al. against Walter S. Johnston,
receiver of the National bank of tho
state of Missouri, and Clara A. Baker.
Tho suit involved title to a large amount
of property within the city of St. Louis.
The decision of the court is based on thy
ground that the state court's decision
covered the case so as to leave no fed
eral question necessary to be passed
upon.

A DENIAL BY MR. CLARKSON.
Be lias Declared for Neither Blaine Nor
Harrison for President.
Chicago, Dec. 15. James S.Clarkson,
chairman of the Republican national
committee, demolished the story tele
graphed from Washington recently that
Mr. Clarkson had declared for President
Harrison for renomination. Said Mr,
Clarkson: "I have not declared myself
for either Mr. Blaine or the president. I
have not any preference and I do not
knowanything about the intentions of
either. I saw Mr. Blaine several days
ago anu ne looKeu as wen ana nearty as
ho did when he returned from the In

doubt that the relations between Mr.
Harrison and Mr. Blaine are cordial and
as friendly as they have always been."
