delighted audience wltnemicd the re
aentatlon of the cantatA BclohAixar at

probably the areatent amateur tucceM
in the hiMtorr o! the city. It waa pre
Rented smoothly and without hltchea
that often mar amateur efforta, all the
little detail hoi rig attended to. Only 2
houri and ft ininntea were conaumed In
the rendation of It. The caat waa for
tunately made, and eonld not have been
improved in the city. Prof Iee ia a great
ncishaxtar ; lira K W Iangdom t queen
ly, and with her magnificent voice
charmed the audience as the qn.en
regent; W H Young performed the diffi
cult character of Kerrubhabet with pro-
(eaiiional ability, both in singing and in
acting; Mine Bertha Ellla not only makes
' a beautiful Antonia, queen of KelahaMar ;
but her singing is of a pleasing nature ;
(lone K I-arlmora was cut out for Cyrus,
king of Persia, and presented that fa
mous warrior in a splendid manner- The
soldier battle march waa A prominent
feature of the entertainment. Mrs Kate
Aiken Is a good Mhelomite, wife of
Kerrubbabel. Her voice i ewset and
her acting excellent. Little Carrie
I'richard p'essed the audience as her
child. Kva Cowan made a uret'y angel
with a very sweet voice. C if Hart did
Festus, the Lord Chamberlain well. C
W Sears was a prominent character as
Paniel, and the interpretation of the
writing on the wall aa a striking feature
of the cantata. Mrs J K Miller was
good as the Jewinh princess. Anna
(io'.lNinitli, Minnie Van Horn and Mrs
Sherman Thompson mado a splendid
Cant as ladies of Helsbaiiir court, not
only looking well in their rich eontumes
but doing some excellent theatrica
work. The Magi attracted deserved at
tention, and the chorus of maids, revel
ers, soldiers, guards, messengers
heralds, etc. was a i ich one. The tine
costumes, and good aUire settings added
greatly to the effect. Prof l-orillurd is
entitled to credit for his perfect accom
naniment. Tw much praise cannot be
bestowed on Prot le and Mr Young, as
well a the entire company of fifty people
for their nntiring efforts in making
llelsliazxar so great a success.

nipped off the tip end of tho finger. A
lew moments later Sir Taylor's father
was explaining to some bystanders how
the accident happened, lie took hold of
the . machine and was showing its
mechanism. "Now." said he. "Tavlor
had his finger right here when the chop
per came down and clipped the end of it
off." And to exemplify the explanation.
at this very juncture tho chopper blade
came down, catching the senior Dunn'a
nnger on the block and cutting its end
ofl just as it bad done the finger of the
young man only a moment before. This
is what the writer's informant chose to
call a "funny" item. But there la prob

The proposition for an amendment to

ator by the direct vote ot the people wll
attract considerable attention this session.
Turple, senator of Indiana, has already
made the question a prominent one by
making a speech In Ita favor. We trust the
proposition will pats through congress and
nd that three fourths of the state? may
dopt It. The people can ssfely be trusted
to elect senators. The people are more
secure In their rights by keeping such
power in their own hands. Ithascometo

voice long and loud for the amendment.

tnemseives directly in statehood matters since
the present congress convened. Just before
the democratic senators held their csucus, to
sgree upon minority representation on the
senate committees '.be Utah and Mew Mexico
boomers attempted to pack the senate com
mittee on territores wtth men who would
favor statehood. Aboutl that moment the
matter was mentioned to President Harrison
and it was lesrned he would not fsvor it. He
believed that Utah ha d not suflicien'ly long
enjoyed freedom from polygamy, and that
New Mexico had aot a sufficiently large Amer
ican cttisensbip, so a csmbinstion wss nude
between Arizona and Oklshoms, and it Is

As to this verbal understanding," it hss no

ia that way. New Mexico will come in when
Arizona does and before Oklahoma.

Rililori Democrat 1
Capltrllsts In Washington City Interest
ed In procuring money from the treasury
ot the United State to enrich Ihe private
owners of stock in the Nlcsrsguan canal
corporation," have sent out petition to
various psrts of the country ssklng the
people to demand that congress appropri
ate money to assist the canal enterprise,
Whl e, no doubt, the canal would be of
great benefit to the coast, Is It not wrong In
principle to tnke money from the nstlonsl
treasury, money wrun from an already
high taxed people, to build up a, or any,
private enterprise.
For the government to appropriate
money lo btilld up the navy, government
al bullclngs, and to I 'n prove a I property
Owned by it in fee simple, Is not onlv con
stitutional but Is proper and right, yet
when the government goes bryond this
and appropriates the people's money to aid
private capiulllK,U,ln the humble opinion
of your correspondent, not only unconsti
tutional, but altogether wrong. The peo
ple should be slow In pi-liil'MiIng congress
to aid Ihe ''Nicarajjuan canal corporation,''
or any other private enterprise. There
has already been too much special legisla
tion for the private few and I'. Is certainly
time a halt was made along thit line. It
may be well counted on that if the canst
enterprise will pay, a most people think
It will. Hut private capital will build It,
wthoui the people's money being used
that way. Is it not wrong In principle
to say becau e if some of the mine In the
nstlon.tl treasury wss given to private cap
italist thst they would build a structure
thst would benefit u, an I therefore the
money of the msnv should be turned over
to a few for that purpose? Such a line of
policy would afford an opportunity to
every capitalist to knock at the vaults of
"Uncle Ssm" ar.d tsy .forsooth, because, I
hsve some tnonry, now thcrcfore.the Unl-
ted. States must tax the people to raited a
fund for use, that I may use It not to build
a structure fur the United Slates but to
build up an entctptlse that will enrich me
Individually. A man might with an armtd
ship steam Into the harbor of Rio Janeloro
and isy lo the Brazilians, pay me a half
million dollars or I will bombsrd your
city. He might Induce them to pay htm
a half million and afterwards bring It here
and build up great enterprises of benefit to
us, but would any one ssy that to acquire
money In that way would be right because
of a benefit to us. Now, when the money
wrung from the people by taxes aie reck
lessly psld out to build up frivol tUr-
friu is not the government using the peo
ple's money for purposes other than gov
ernmentalIn other words Is not such a
use of the nstton's money Illegal and
wrong In principle?
For the government to ts the people
for any other purpose save and
raise a revenue to carry on the
ment economically administered Is
stltutional, and when a tax or ti
levied, not to carry on or build
mental works and prore rty owned by the
government, but to build up and protect
private capitalists, then in the opinion of
your coriespondcnt, the government uses
its powers Illegal! and unwarranted under
the law of or republic, and is simply as
sisting In the perpetration of a fraud upon
the people bv taking the taxe exacted from
It citizens under the plea that the money
Is needed for nub'.lc nurnruu. when. In
fact, It Is diverted to the channels of the
capitalist ot Ihe country who, by their
becelnsr and corruntintr our national ra- I
(statures have, so, far, blinded so many of
of the people of our country a- to crest
to sonr,e extent a sentiment, that the na
tional treasury i a thing to be looted, and

give to the other half enough to live on.
The government of the United States
should psy Its employes, Itssoldiers, and
those who deierve pensions liberally; It
hould, s It does, al way s meet Its obliga
tions and take c: re of Its own property
and attend to the matters delegated to It
by the several states by their power of at
torney, vis, the "constitution of the United
States," but lo appropriate money to build
up private enterprise never, no never, was
such power given to it, Is the opinion of
your subscriber.

The appointment of Stephen B Elklnsby
'rettdcntJIUrrlion to the war portfolio la
Ignlficiant In more than one way. For
years Elktna has been Blaine's right hand
man. At the last three or four nationa
republican conventions he has been on
hand urging the nomination of Blaine
So strong and Influential was he with
Blaine's f sixes In iSSS at Chicago, that he
led them, In the Jfinal move, to Harrison,
Many will regard the appointment as In
dicating that Blaine has definitely re
tired from all hopes of ever being; presi
dent, and, that he has turned his forces
over to Harrison. Others will, with equsl
reason, regard this move on the part of
Harrison as a shrewd one to capture
Blaine's 'principal lieutenant. Another
conclusion, the most Important of all, Is
that Harrison has decided to run the neat
presidential campaign on the most ap
proved plan of republican practical politics
as represented by Elklns, Quay, Dudley
and Clarkson. "Blocks of Five" and the
pious Wanamaker's $400,000 corruption
fund schemes will be tbe principal means
used to secute the election of the next re
publican candidate. There can scarcely
be a doubt (hat the administration will
boldly challenge the virtue and manliness
of tbe voters of the country at the ballot
box. Will the votera of the country be
able to stand tbe test? It ia as If the per
petulty of the government itself was being
put to the test. , There can be no question
as to what the result would be were the
people left free to express an unbiased
choice. The party In power would be
quickly voted out, But the means of the
party in power are potential and the re
sult uncertain.

Vigor tu restoring gray balr to its orlRinal
eolor, promoting a new growth, prevent
ig the hair from falling, keeping It soft,
silky, and abundant, and the sealp coot,
healthy, and free from dandruff or humors.
The universal testimony Is tliat this prep
aration has no equal a a drelnit, and
Is, therefore. Indispensable to every well
furnlshed toilet
"I tiave used Ayers Hair Viior for some
tinis and It has worked wonder for me. 1
was troubled with dandruff and was rapidly
becoming bald ; but since using the Vigor my
head Is perfectly clear of dandruff, the lmir
has eeased coming out, and I now have s
good growth, ol the same color as when I
was a young woman. 1 can heartily recom
mend any one suffering from dandmll or
loss of balr to use Ayer's Hair Vigor a a .
dressing."-Mrs. Lydla O. Moody, tast
fittston, Me.
"floroe time ago my wile's hair began to
some out quite freely.
Ayer's
Hair Vigor
w only prevented my wife from lieermiing
bald, but It also caused an entirely new
growth of balr. I am ready to eertily to this
statement before a Justice of the peace."
11. llulsebus, lewtoburgli, Iowa.
"Some years ago, after a severe attack ot
brain fever, my balr all came out. I o.sed
S'U preparations for restoring it as my phy
sicians ordered, but failed to produce a
growth of hair. I tlien tried, succew.ivly,
several articles recommended by dnipgtut,
and all alike fell sliort of accomplishing the
desired result. The last remedy 1 applied
was Ayer's Hair Vigor, which brouglit a
growth of hair in a few weeks. I think I
used eight bottles In two years; more thsn
was necessary as a restorative, but 1 liked it
as a dressing, and have continued to use it
for that purpose. I believe Ayer's Hair
Vigor possesses virtues far above those of
any similar preparation now on the market-"
