Just now there isa flurry in Wall street and the stock gamblers are erying out for government aid to make the financial conditions which are, of course, “firm as a rock,” suffi- ciently solid to hold them up.

What is the matter with the repub- lican financiers? They cannot get together and ee upon some plausi- ble fiction whichean be advanced with at least a show of unanimity.

The Toledo State Hospital was vis- ited yesterday by a committee from Missouri that is on a tour of inspec- tion to obtain pointers to use in the building of a state institution to be constructed at Farmington, Francois county. The visitors consisted of J. D. Allen, J.E. Berry, O. C. Clay, J. L. Buchanan, Dr.C. H. Rigg and State Senator H. H. Hohenshield.
