..''.'7 .;. ,: .i i ' & : ! .71 I Daily democrat A sweet potato weighing twentr-teven poundt, raised at Waxahacl.le.Tex , and a lobster weighing twenty pounds, raised out of deep water oil Atlanllcville, L. I., are the !r.btet champion heavy weight edibles. Prof. Thurston says: "The assumption eemi fair thai the locomotive engine will have been superseded when wre double our speeds, and that we must find ways to utilize the weights of the cars themselves for adhesion, and to make each to carry its own motor." Gold while in circulation is handled less than any other medium. It is usually kept in the vaults of banks for demand rarely made, and for this reason the loss by abrasion Is but about one-half of one per cent In twenty years. In a 20 dollar gold piece, the standard weight of whl:h Is 516 grains, the government allowance for loss, by abrasion is 2.5S grains. In 1S20 Missouri was the twenty-third state in rank. In iS3o she moved up two notches and became tha twenty-first, In lS4o she jumped to the sixteenth; in 1S51, to the thirteenth; In 1S60 to the eight, and in 1870 to the fifth a position she ha held ever since and stili occupies. Grand old Msiouri. Some of the most important dates In American history are these: The discov ery of America by Columbus, Oct. 13, 149; the landing of the Pilgiims from the Mayflower, Dec. 21, 1620; the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776; the birth of Washington, Feb. 14, 1759; the attack on Fort Summer, April 12, 1S61 ; the death of Abraham Lincoln, April 15,1865; arid the surrender of Lee at Appomattox, April 9. iSfiS- The nomination of Ex-Governor Rich ard Oglesby for senator by the republican legislative caucus in Illinois Is a s.'veie set-back for Senator Farwcll. If the farm ers' alliance members wereslncere in their revolt against the republican policy they will vote , for and elect Gen. Palmer. Three-quarters of a loaf ought to be re garded by them as better than the old crust, Gen. Palmer stands for neatly everything that the farmers want, and he can serve them better than any new and Inexperienced man. The tin-plate muddle is fully Illustrated by the Chicago Tribune. It rays the Chi cago firm , which U claimed to be already making tin-plate under the fostering in fluence of the McKinlcy Welsh plate, dip ped it In melted tin, tariff, has simply taken some Imported, using Welsh work men, also recently Imported, and then labeled "Ameiican tin-plate." But they have made no plate for the market aril it h not claimed that they will be able to fur nish It at any lower rates than those now charged. The common remark of some men that the world "owes them a living," needs some modification.' They must -.ollect this living themselves, and in doing so they must earn as much for the world as the living costs. Besides this the kind of living that such men can claim w ill not pay anybody else the trouble of collecting.. It Is far better policy not to rely on the living that the world owes, which is coly charity for those unable o support themselves, but rather to go to work and earn some thing more than a living, which, when ever fa'rly earned, Is never paid grudging lv, as the bare living is always sure to be.

Pteffer ,the new Alliance senator from Kansas, elected to succeed Ingalls Is as sound as a dollar on the tariff, question. When elected he made a speech in which he suid: We ore opposed to high tariff duties upon anv article of common use. We be - lieve free trade is sometimes ansouuc pro tection. We believe in raising revenue 01.lv to defray expenses of the (jovern ment. Next year an army of people will muster under "one banner to take posses sion of the government, and at the dawn ot the twentieth century the United States will be governed by the people mat live In tlicqi. When that good limes comes woman will vole and men quit drinking. Every political move In the country seems to weaken the protection theory. In February, 184S, a treaty of peace was signed at Guadalupe Hidalgo, by which the Rio Grande was mide the boundary of Texas, and the reat tracts of lands embraced in Cal ifornia and New Mexico were ceded to the United States. She i" her turn assumed Mexican debts to the amount of $3,500,060, and gave in addition $15,000,000 to the Mex ican Government. Notice.
