The same effect, so far as Dakota is concerned, is produced by legistation which couples its admission with that of New Mexico, which is not now asking statehood, which falls behind in material at- tainments, and which has the language, cus- toms and ignorance of a people two-thirds of whom are Mexican. Dakota would doubtless prefer immediate admission under the Senate Dill; but the action of the democratic caucus, notwithstanding the suggestion of New Mex- ico’s admission as a condition, marks a distinct forward step by that party in a conciliatory Dolisy towards the territories of the northwest, The Baltimore, Sun, in a strong plea for re- form in the political methods of the party in power in Maryland, and for improvement in the state government as a whole, scores the officials entrusted with the protection of the confirms the intimation of ‘connect Ty are the best, but ofer-4 at p ¥ prices than the Gloves "EVERY PAIR WAKRA| | Sew SE Es ot, ait aod Fhouer Y GIVEN.

Westinghouse, favoring the alternat- ing current, says that the shock of Edison's continuous current of 230 volts ‘‘would be pain- | fal if not absolutely dangerous if the person were at all delicate.” ro oe If Gov. Gray, of Indiana, was moved by pique or any other petty feeling in not giving his consent to the use of one of the rooms of ‘the state house at Indianapolis for a public re- eeption to the Vice-President-elect, he dida very undignified thing. It may be that there fe no legal authority for such use of the build- ing, and, if the governor is equally conscien- tious in respect to everything else, no com- plaint could be made. But in almost every other state, if not every other, it is customary to receive distinguished guests in the capitol buildings, and the chief executive usually Joins in the ceremonies of welcome. The cus- tom isa pleasant one when itis not abused; and, if Indiana bas not yet adopted it, now would be a good time to begin. Piste lt eat nt The southern immigration convention at Montgomery, Ala.. chose a good season for its meeting. There has been no time since the end of the war when the development of south- ern industries with northern capital has been going on at 8 livelier rate than now. In a single week recently, according to the com- mercial reports, between three and four million dollars were either directly invested in enter- prises in leading cities of the south, or funded for the use of stock companies whose plant will be centered there. What the south needa, however, as much as northern capital, is Yankee ingenuity and brawn. She ought to encourage the immigration of the artisan class, which has turned many a pretty village in New England and the west into a thriving business Place. But those men are the kind who do not move readily unless they are sure of a cor- dial welcome in their new home. ——————— What already exists in some northern cities, and is now demanded bya part of the local press for New Orleans, would be » valuable addition to the municipal ordinances of Wash- ington—e legal prohibition. enforced by a fine, on the outrageous’ practice of throwing fruit skins upon the sidewalk. In New Orleans Public attention was called sharply to the nuisance by the serious injury suffered the other day by acitizey froma fall caused by slipping on a banana peel, and the newspapers im every large city have some accident of that sort to record from day to day. The ples universally raised in answer to ® proposal to legislate on the sub- ject is that a law against the promiscuous Scattering of fruit-skins would be very hard to enforee, since the people who eat fruit in the ‘he 4- ete,, for $1 ‘The Cagmere Cloth Gloves for Ladies for 19e. in stead of 25c.
