"Tho people- In Grand Rnplds, Kala mazoo, Niles, Ann Arbor, Wayne, Ypsl. lanti and other Micliigan town's are twenty-soven minutes more rapid than tho rest of tho world, and at tho samo time aro 'way behind tho times," re marked George Westiake, a drummer for a Cincinnati paper company. Mr. Westlako talked as If ho wero not at all pleased with the indication of rapid progress in the Wolverlno state, and de clared it was tho occasion of lib losing valuable- time. "When I say tho pec plo are rapid thero," continued tho trav eler, "I mean that they keep their clocks twenty-seven minutes ahead of standard time. "When tho scientific men discovered that tho world was twenty-seven minutes too rapid tho edict went forth that tho hands of tho clocks and watches should bo turned back. "Nearly everybody recognized that the earth could not keep paco with tho sun, but tho Micliigan people would not acknowledge this, and positively refused to adopt standard time. All tho clocks In tho hotels, stores, resi dences and boarding houses In tho Michigan towns ore run on what is called 'city timo,' which is the old time. Tho railroad trains, however, run on standard time, and as travelers aro compelled to eat on 'city time,' etc., and aro not notiiied of this out of date stato of affairs, tho stranger gets to tho depot just in timo to learn that his train lias been gono a half hour."

The manufacture of rubber shoes is not very much different from tho man ufacture of leather shoes. They aro made on lasts just the same, but in stead of being sowed they are cemented. "Wo get most of the raw material from South America," Baid a drummer. "It is about the color of molasses, and is of a spongy nature. "First it goes through a crushing or rolling process, and comes out. in rough sheets and looks very much liko a cow's iiide. Then it is taken into a compounding room, where it is mixed with a compound and vulcanized. "After that it is cut up into small pieces, according to tho parts of shoes which wo wish to got, and is afterward fitted on to lasts by tho workmen in tho samo manner that leather is." Denver News.

Bays President McOrath, of the Southern farmers' alliance lu Kansus, "for the reason that there is nothing to fuso with. Wo have destroyed that party in Kansas, leaving nothing of It save a few superannuated fossils, whom wo do not waut," Prcsidout McQrath states a fact whloh Is not generally sufllclontly considered. Tho Southern alliance did lust year sweep away, at least tempor arily, thousands of republicans from the discipline of tho party. The republican being tho party in local power had to bear the brunt of tho tempest. It lost the lower branch of the last legislature and tho legislature in Joint session, thus falling in the senatorial contest. The republican party was hurt, of course, by tho Southern alliance movement as a political agitation lu Kansas, aud the hurt has been greatly exaggerated by those whose views of politics is generally nar rowed to a single campaign or to a local result. But the republican party in Kunsas did not lose its or ganization nor its supremacy In tho state. The party stood ns firm as au oak lu tho storm, aud in the cri sis showed a clean popular majority, electing the stato ticket entire. It was never In bettor condition to tight than today. Tho democratic party in Knnsns Is different. President McQruvb correctly describes tho situation wheu he says that the democratic party was practically swept out of existence by the Southern nlllauce wave. The party completely lost its organization. Its leaders dishon estly sought to increase agitation, in t no impoo t breaking down tuo re- publcan party, but they could not rule tho storm. Tbo democratic masses in most of tho counties were lost in the new movement. The majority or t'jo democratic orgaus renounced the old party and be came tho exponents of the new. They became involved in associa tions which they cunuot now break oO. Tho predicamont of great numbers of the local democratic leaders Is the same. Oyer a great portion of Kansas thus there Is no local democratlo or ganization for tho democratic mem bers of the Southern alliance or of the people's party, which, for tho most part, Is another form of tho that alllauco to rally on. Accor dingly, the few democratic leaders, who in tho new circumstances of another year's politics are trying either to realign or to barter their party, aro embarassed. Tho South orn alllauco leaders, having destroy ed the democratlo organization, do splso propositions to barter and to fuso and they mock tho bosses. The republican party in Kunsas Is in a condition of halcyon prospeIty In comparison with tho degenerate votaries of Audrow Jackson. Sioux City Journal. Highest of ail in Leavening Power. Latest U.

The Albany Democrat, true to its democratic Instiucts, says, in italics: "There is Just as much reason for giving a bounty to the wheat grower us to the sugar producer." But it assigns no argument to support this straugo proposition, aud, wo pre sume, for the best reason, because there are uone. It Is a fact that this country has not produced enough sugar to pupply ono-thlrd of tho de mand, uud, whllo the republican party docs not believe in taxing necessary articles, it advocates tho fostering of all homo productions. By aid from the government beet sugar could bo produced, aud this bounty is to encourage tho growth und manufacture of this necessities of life. America exports mlllloiiH of bushels of wheat every year, nnd a bounty given to growers could In no wlfio stimulate agriculture, By tho exercise of a llttlo common sense, any one can percevo how consistent the democratlo party is on natlonul Issues.
