Missouri may get a cabiuet port- folio. There is no doubt of the ex- cellent material she has for such a position. Dun’s review reports business excellent the country over with the volume of trade greater than in previous years. From estimates furnished Latham Alexander & Co. bankers at New York, the cotton decrease is 35.8 per cent under last year. There is a mad dog scare at Dan- ville Va as about 50 persons were bitten by a dog that afterwards died from rabies. The official vote of New York is as follows: Cleveland, 663,900; Har rison, 608,230. Cleveland’s plurali- ty 45,670. In 1888 Cleveland received 735,757, and Harrison, 648,758. Neglect to hang out asignal light eaused a collision with loss of life between two freight trains on the Panhandle near Richmond Ind. The Blossburg (N. M.) coal mine fire is still raging. One hundred miners were hemmed in for awhile but all except one escaped nuhurt. President Higginbotham of the Worlds’ Fair Board has appealed by letter to the Congressmen aud Senators as individuals in behalf of an open Sunday at the fair. May Sams, discarded mistress of KR. S. Sampson, shot him dead and seriously wounded his bride of a week at Cairo II]. and then mortally wounded herself with the same pis tol. Cabinet makers are numerous and the cabinets thus formed are no doubt made vf excellent material But Grover Cleveland will make a cabinet about the 4th of March which will eclipse the whole outtit. From the returns received the democrats will have a majority on joint ballot in the Misouri legislature of 64 On this basis the house will stand: Democrats 91 Republican and Populist 49; anel the senate,democrats 28, republicans 6. Sheriff Rogers and deputy Morri- rison of Marion County, Tennessee escaped from the Jasper Jail with the three negro murderers of South Pittsburg just asa mob was about to storm the prison. They have reacked Chatanooga with the prison ers. It is rumored that the General Electric Company is buying up smaller companies to form a trust. The company denies it. On the other hand it is said a combine headed by Edison and his company is buying up the small companies to fight the General Electric Company. Senator John A. Daxiels, of Vir- giuia, had an immense Thanksgiving plum pudding weighing 271 pounds, that being the latest estimate of the number of electoral vote Cleveland and Stevenson will receive. A twelve pound slice was sent to each of the successful candidates, 12 being the electoral vote of Virginia. The wisacres now have it that Senator Hill will yoluntarily retire from the senate when Cleveland is inaugurated. These same fellows are going to retire Senator Sherman and Judge Fields. Senator Hill, like the rest, will retire when his successor is elected and qualified. There is a growing belief that the best interests of the country de- mands an extra session. The Wash- ington dispatches report that a large majority of the congressman now at the national capital favor that course. However, we have the utmost confi- dence that Mr. Cleveland will do the yery best thing for the country. Responsibility for the Deficit.

Text of the Remarks Which Gaye Offence to theEmperor. New York Nov —Much est is felt here concerning the alley ed indiscretion of William Waiter Phelps. United States Minister to Germany, in conde (by infer Ewperor William in his speech at the Kaiserhof in Be on Thanksziviug Day. Mr. Phe!ps presided at th+ dinneraud spoke to the toast “The President.” His words as cabled from Berlin are as follows “Presiden iuter- ence,) Harrison lias the country the c.canest aud most successful sdiinistration in Aw When history inakesap every sou.” Mr. Phelps then gave a toast, which he suid wa! withdrawn for repairs because it has given “temporarily 'some of us office “America,” Mr. Phelps said “is the land in which God bas poured ba ri of good things that it kes a Thanksgiving day to dispose of them. America is the fonly nation that could have a nation- Other nations try | }it and the day instead of becoming al thanksgiving, a day of thanks becomes 2 day of prayer. When othr tions pray they pray for just whet the United States has got. The aud the Gentile is the same in America. A Jew man’s faith or his lack of faith does | not hurt hin there.” Until the cable dispatches bring further assurance that Mr. Phelps made the remarks that have given offense, it is impossible to say how jfar Mr. Phelps bas sinned a la Sack- ville West.

It starts the torpid liver into health- ful action, purifies and enriches the blood, cleanses, repairs, and strength- ens the system, and restores health and vigor. As an appetizing, re- storative tonic, it sets at work all the processes of digestion and nu- | trition, and builds up flesh and strength.
