When a woman makes up her mind
to get into the charmed circle of so
ciety there is noth-
O'ltmblntc the
ingin heaven above
Social I.adder. n()r on tJ)e earth
beneath that will check her effort.
A story in illustration of this persist
ency of the fair ones is told by a
well-known leader in Washington so
ciety, says the Chicago Chronicle. In
high officialdom is a little lady, dainty
as a spring crocus, who was a mem
ber of the inner circle long before
she became a part of officialdom. On
one of her last reception days she was
chatting with cabinet women when
the servant announced the arrival of
a woman who is struggling to get
into things as never a social climber
struggled before. The hostess knew
her by sight merely and had never
so much as had a bowing acquaint
ance with her, but official people are
used to seeing strangers at their re
ceptions and the lady of the house
bowed with her usual graciousness.
The climber's quick eye took in the
situation. She saw the two cabinet
women and she knew they saw her.
She rose to the occasion in masterly
fashion. "My dear Mrs. Blank," she
said, gushingly, clasping her hostess'
hand warmly, "I was so sorry not to
have been at home when you called
on Friday. It was so sweet of you
to come so soon and 1 do hope you'll
come in very often, informally, that
way." And before the hostess had re
covered from her surprise the climber
had passed on, well content, for she
had appeared in the presence of two
cabinet women as the intimate friend
of a lady who had never set foot cjr
her doorstep.
On June 1 many thousands of men
officially known as enumerators began
Help the t0 ,ake the twelfth
census of the Unit-
Kn (i m era tor. , r ,,
ed States. During
the month they will be expected to visit
every home. They will ask many ques
tions. Xot one of these questions is
unnecessary, and, rightly regarded,
none is impertinent. Every accurate
answer will help to carry out the pur
pose of the census, which is to deter
mine and record the social condition
and industrial stiaiding of the peopln
of this country. Truth-telling cannot
possibly have embarrassing results.
The information given the enumerator
will not be used as a basis of taxation
nor communicated to any assessor; and
if the enumerator makes any facts pub
lic he will be liable to a heavy penalty.
The enumerators will undoubtedly try
to do their work discreetly and well,
for they are reputable citizens, care
fully chosen. The government gives
them all the aid it can, in the form of
instructions so comprehensive that
they fill a pamphlet of 04 pages. Hut
the success of the census really depends
upon the intelligent cooperation of the
people. Receive the enumerator cour
teously, urges Youth's Companion, an
swer his questions frankly and in no
way hamper or delay him. lie is the
agi nt of a great governmental enter
prise which should interest and must
benefit every citizen of the United
Slat es.
The Boston Transcript tells of an
Episcopal church that is being sued
because it is not sufficiently "Iligh
church." It appears that a certain
person left money to this church, with
the provision that the services should
come up to a certain standard ol
churchmanship. The minister has
failed, it is olaiined, to get as much
ritualism into the service and tlie re
sponses of his flock as the money calls
for.
"English as she is spoke" was exem
plified at the bridge soon after the con
solidation o.f the roads, when a public
school-teacher of Manhattan was over
heard to ask at a ticket window: "Does
it make any difference what train you
take w here you buy your ticket now V
The ticket seller, stolidly oblivious to
the ambiguity of ■.he question, replied
that it did not.
A recent rearrangement of the relies
in the agricultural museum in the L'ni

old Lincoln home at S-priujrfield.

"There is no reason why Ohio should
not give President MeKinley this year
the biggest majority that it lias ever
given to any republican candidate for
president. On the contrary, there is
every reason why it should," says lion.
Jacob 11. Bromwell, of Cincinnati, O.
"The increase in business, the great
er employment of labor, with a much
larger amount of wages circulated
within the iast few years, when con
trasted with the poverty-stricken con
ditions under a previous administra
tion, are conclusive proof that a re
publican administration' is the best
tiling for the United States, and cer
tainly for Ohio. It is safe to say
that every person in the Buckeye
state has felt, in some shape or man
ner, the benefits arising from Pres
ident McKinlcy's administration, and
from the protective tarilr for which
he has always been the strongest ad
vocate in the country.
"The increase in wealth in our state
has been enormous. Deposits in the
national banks jumped from $.'12,000,-
<MI» in IBD4. to $49,000,000 in IS!)*). In
the state and private banks within
the same period, the gain was from
$4,000,(KM) to $11,000,000. In the loan
and trust companies it was from
$3,000,000 to $9,000,000, and in the sav
ings banks the increase has been from
a little less than $5,000,000, in 1594, to
almost $11,500,000 in 1599. In fact, the
bank deposits in our state were more
than SO per cent, larger last year
than they were in 1894.
"Now this shows a most decided in
crease in the wealth of the state. But
what is far more satisfactory is that
the prosperity has been felt by more
people. For instance, in 1894 there
were less than 92,000 depositors in the
national banks, while last year there
were over 122,000. In the state and
private banks the number of deposit
ors lias more than doubled, from less
than 10,000 in 1894 to nearly .'IS,O<X) last
year. In the loan and trusl compan
ies the number of depositors has in
creased from 4.500i to over 7,000. In
the savings banks, which hold the ac
cumulated wealth of the poorer peo
ple, the number of depositors has also
more than doubled, from .'fo.o;S2 in 1894
»O (HI. 189 in 1899. Notwithstanding
the large increase in the number of
depositors, the average amount to the
credit of each holder of a bank ac
count was $357 last year, as against
$314 five years ago.
"Prosperity can be gauged not only by
the bank deposits of Ohio, but also by
its bank clearings and record' of busi
ness failures. The bank clearings have
shown enormous gains, while the trade
failures have shown correspondingly
large decrease, both in numbers as well
as in the amount of the liabilities.
"Farmers, as well as the workers in
the factories, have benefited by the im
provement In business under President
MeKinley. With all the factories busy,
and many of them running overtime,
there has been a much better demand,
right, in our own state, for what the
farmer grows. The factory hands earn
better wages, and more of them, than
they did under the last democratic ad
ministration. They are, therefore,
able to pay better prices for their food.
Talk to any farmer in the state,
whet her he be democrat, populist or re
publican, and' he cannot help acknowl
edging that he has received better
prices in the last two years, and that
his farm is in better shape both finan
cially and as t o its appearance and con
ditions.
"There has been a wond'erful im
provement in the value of live stock in
Ohio, particularly in sheep, and) that
is due entirely to the protective tariff
on wool. Under the free wool tariff
of the democratic party, the best
grade of Ohio wool sold at 17y 3 cents
in l'oston: under the MeKinley tariff it
sold at 33 cents, so that free wool
meant a loss of 15'/C, cents a pound. But
this year, in January, the same grade
of wool which sold at 17% cents a
pound in 1895. was sold for 35 cents,
having doubled in value under the pro
tective tariff, which is now in force
during President McKinley's adminis
tration. It is the same with sheep.
On January 1, 1897, just before Presi
dent MeKinley was inaugurated, all
the sheep in Ohio were worth $5,877,-
171. according to the figures of the de
partment of agriculture. Three years
later, on the first day of this year, they
were worth $10,535,250. So you see,
that not only has t he price of wool doub
led. b;it the value of the sheep is now
almost 100 per cent, more than it was
before the farmer's wool was protect
ed. and before the country began to re
alize the benefits of this republican ad
ministration.
"If this is not cause enough for every
farmers in the state of Ohio to vote for
the reelection of the president from
his own state, then no degree of pros
perity or well-doing can make a repub
lican out of him."

"The trouble clown in Washington,
Kli," said an old Dakota farmer on the
train the other day, "is caused by
their having too many one-horse east
ern farmers in congress. Now we are
so prosperous that we sold twelve
hundred million dollars' worth of stuff
to Europe last year, and only bought
back six hundred million dollars'
worth. This gave us a surplus of six
hundred million dollars, which came
back to us in gold and bonds. That's
all right. It' we goon that way for
ten years longer, we'll have six billions
of their money—about a fourth of the
money in the world! Now. why can't
we let well enough alone? What's the
use of flying off on free silver and free
trade again?
"Then again they say we ain't man
aging our commerce right. They say
we don't own the ships that carry this
stuff to Europe. They say European
ships get $200,000,000' for carrying this
stuff across the ocean. Now. why
don't congress bolster up our ships a
little, as it did our tin factories, glass
factories and silk factories? Why.
suppose congress should give our ships
ten or twenty million dollars to help
them start in? Call it a subsidy.
What of it? By and by, when the
ships get started, we'll save $200,000,-
000 a year from going to Euro]lean
ship owners. We bait a trap to catch
a rat. don't we. but we don't have to
feed him cheese after he is caught.
"We farmers won't squeal if con
gress will spend twenty millions to
save two hundred millions. England
and Germany back up their ships and
give them a bonus on the money they
make for their country. They steal
the carrying trade anil take $200,000,-
000 out of our pockets every year. T
say tight them with their own am
munition, as w«* fight the Russian
thistle, liy and by when we sell Eu
rope a billion and a half dollars' worth
of cotton, corn, meat and manufac
tured goods and get paid for carry
ing it to them—why then we'll have
the whole earth! You hear me!"

Democratic Iloer Trick.
Referring to the visit of the Borr
peace delegates to the United States,
t lie Daily K\press, of London, says t hat
the democratic Tammany leader, of
New York city, -Mr. Croker, is running
the delegates for all they are worth for
political purposes. It adds:
"Records of Tammany are already
black enough without the add'ition of
this new infamy. What makes the ac
tion peculiarly infamous now is the
fact that Mr. Croker claims the hospi
tality of an English (Domicile and'poses
as an English country gentleman, yet
he is aiding and encouraging the worst
of England's enemies. Mr. Croker's po
sition is practically on all fours with
that of the duke of Orleans."
The paper points out that the dul-.e
of Orleans paid the penalty of his of
fense by being socially banned. It sug
gests that Mr. Croker. having reasons
for spending as little time as possible
in the Cnited States, take an Italian
villa near the duke of Orleans, whose
company, it says, he will probabTy find
congenial.

Kansas has made another record.
Not content with plastering the walls
of her state buildings with caiecled
mortgages; not content with doubling
her bank deposits since 1896; Kansas
now has but one inmate in the state
poor farm. Dining-lialls and'bedrooms
that a few years ago were crowded
with the idlle, with the hungry, and
with the poorly clad, now echo and're
echo the solitary tramp of their
sole inmate, who is without kith or
kin, and who is too old and feeble to
work. But one sad relic remains in the
Kansas poorhouse, to remind the tax
payers of the days when its free soup,
free bed and free clothes were donated
to those who were compelled to idle
ness und'er a democratic administra
tion, and under its policy of destruc
tion to all American industries,both of
farm and factory.

Representative Brosius, of Pennsyl
vania, chairman of the house commit
tee on banking and currency, has made
a statement, official in character, and
based on information carefully pre
pared by the treasury department, on
the workings of the recently enacted
financial law. The statement says in
part:
"The refunding provisions of the law
are working out an achievement in
finance without a parallel in the his
tory of the world. The statement I
submit is official and shows the
amount of bonds of each kind ex
changed since the law went into opera
tion, March 14, to the Ist day of May,
1900, together with the saving in in
terest. the premium paid 1 , and the net
saving."
The statement shows the following
totals:
Amount refunded, $260,020,250; sav
ing in interest. $32,699,255; premium
paid, $26,034,771; net savings, $6,664,-
454.
The "net savings" shown by this
statement represents the difference
between the amount of interest the
government will pay upon the. bonds
refunded to the date of their respective
maturities, and the amount of interest
the government would have been
obliged to pay had not the bonds above
described been thus refunded.
"It will be observed that the total
amount of bonds exchanged is $260,-
020.750. The treasurer has already
made full settlement for bonds amount
ing to $259,051,950, and of the prem
iums paid and to be paid. $26,034,771,
the treasurer has already paid $25,-
923.732. leaving unpaid only about
SIIO,OOO. Of the $260,027,050 bonds ex
changed. $48,508,000 were from institu
tions or private persons other than na
tional banks.
"The operation of legal tender re
demption under the provisions of the
law exhibits a highly satisfactory con
dition of public confidence in our gov
ernment paper and is a happy omen
for the success of that branch of our
monetary system in the future. The
secretary of the treasury informs me
that the amount of United States notes
redeemed in gold out of the reserve
fund since the new law went into opera
tion is $5,133,149."
The most interesting of Mr. Brosius'
statement is a table prepared by the
treasury showing the extent to which
new national banks have been organ
ized under the new law. The total
number of applications approved is
244, with a capital of $8,380,000. The
total applications on file for author
ity to organize national banks is 508.
the total applications for the conver
sion of old banks into national banks
is 382, making a total of all kinds of
new bank organizations of 890.
Mr. Brosius also adds, from unofficial
but reliable sources, a detailed esti
mate of $124,788,858, as the amount of
currency the national banks may issue
in the near future, as gathered-from
their expressed intention.

Prosperity In Colornilo.
Colorado's bank deposits have more
than doubled in five years, increasing
from $9,379,733 in 1894 to $20,0-58,377 in
1899. The number of people who had
bank accounts increased in the same
time from 18,532 up to 30,047. This can
be credited up to McKinley prosperity,
and accounts in part for the fact that
thousands oIS Colorado men who left the
republican party in 1896 are returning
to it.

A shovel cost six and one-half cents

Even then he would still have a cent

Philadelphia, June 16. —The repub
lican national committee yesterday
putin three long sessions on the con
tests brought before it, and adjourn
ed late at night with all of the con
troversies practically disposed of ex
cept that from Delaware. This lias
been referred back to the sub-coin
niittee, with instructions to again en
deavor to bring the factions to a basis
of agreement and will receive filial
action to-day. An important action
Friday was the seating of the lirown
loiv delegates in the Tennessee eon
test and refusing admission to the
friends of Pension Commissioner Kv
nns. The contest, was very bitter and
at one time there was the possibility
of a serious encounter between
Brownlow and Evans.
The most interesting feature of the
day was the speech of Senator Hanna
in the Delaware case. Senator llanmi
is anxious to harmonize the factions
in Delaware and his speech before the
committee urging another attempt at
agreement showed his leeling in the
matter.
The action of the committee in the
various contests lias caused it to be
irencrall.v remarked that it has not
been influenced in the least Iv Ibis
leaders. Senator 1 (anna's friends from
the south, especially the oflice-hold
prs. have received scant consideration.
Where there were rival factions of
office-holders, as in Alabama, both
sides have been denied scats. The
defeat of Winiberly in Louisiana and
the elevation of Warmouth is said to
have been antagonistic to the wishes
of the close friends of the adminis
tration.
Speculation, gossip nnd informal
conferences among national commit
teemen and other leading republicans
who are here has failed to indicate a
crystallization of sentiment arounl
any individual. .Neither Senator Han
na nor those who are close to him
give anv intimation that the admin
istration has a choice. The number
of delegates who will vote for any
man that the administration favors
seems to accentuate the general im
pression that the nominee will be the
man most satisfactory to the presi
dent. "If \ou would take us into
your confidence on this vice presiden
tial matter it would simplify the sit
uation greatly and gi\e us an oppor
tunity to do what the president would
like," said a prominent republican to
Senator Hanna yesterday, and the re
ply he made was: ' You know all
that I know about it."
Senator Piatt's talk of Odell. of
New York, caused a little flutter here,
and Dolliver stock took an upward
turn about the same time, the cause
being the impression that in easj
Odell should be pressed by New York
there would be a concentration on the
lowa congressman by those who do
not favor the New Yorker.
The candidacy of Lieut, tlov. Wood
ruff. of New York, who has arrived
here, is still being kept in evidence by
his friends, but apparently without
any backing from the republican
managers and with the distinct dis
approval of Senator Hanna.
It is generally believed that Sena
tor Allison has made it plain that be
will not be a candidate under any
circumstances.
• The position of Secretary Long
causes considerable comment, and it
is being freely asked why the Long
candidacy should proceed so far un
less it has the tacit consent of the
president. The fact that Long is a
member of McKinle.v's cabinet gives
rise to a widespread belief that the
secretary of the navy will finally re
ceive the support of the administra
tion. If such is the case, however, it.
is being carefully kept from view.
As the matter stands now it would
seem that Long, Dolliver arid Fair
banks are lhc leading possibilities for
vice president.

its climax in the parade which took
place in the afternoon. The United

about 1.200 men. The Marine band
