How to Cloan Bronzes.
It Is not a good plan to clean bronzes,
as tbe polish is very easily spoiled, lint
if necessary nothing is better than
cleaning them with water and am
monia, using a stiff brush like a nail
brush. Dry carefully after rinsing
.thoroughly. They should be carefully
dusted eVery day with a soft cloth and
a feather brush, and a little sweet oil
may tie rubbed on occasionally. To re
move stains from bronze make the
article very hot by dipping lt in boiling
water. Then rub lt with a piece of
dannel dipped In suds made from yel
low soup, rubbing clean with soft linen
cloths.

Wky This Solicitude?
Tho New York Sun, which is own
ed out and out by the trustB ?nd
which defends their interest on all
occasions, calls upon Senator Till
man of South Carolina to speak in
regard to the candidacy of William
Jennings Bryan. It concedes the
great influence of the South Caro
linian upon tho political sentiment
of the South, but says that "the
question is one of pure expediency
at a critical moment in ihe fortunes
of the Democratic party." ''Wc all
know," tays tho Sun, "that Tillman
doesn't believe that Bryan could win
if nominated, and so we hope every
thing." That is to say, tho Sun
hopes that Mr. Tillman will consent
that South Carolina shall be repre
sented in tho Convention at
Denver by an uninstructed delega
tion. "It is not the habit of tho
.Southern States," says the Sun, .Vto
send instructed delegations. Virgin
ia does not, nor yet Louisiana. . Ala
bama has.not the habit, nor Tennes
see, But there is ono of them that
can do more than all the others to
keep th? questioniopcn until tho del
egates assemble at Denver, and that
just now is South Carolina. Sena
tor Benjamin R. Tillman has on
ly to speak and all will liston anx
iously. Will Senator Tillman speak?"
Why this great solitude about South
Carolina's action in sending dele
gates to tho National Democratic
Convention on the part of tho Now
York Sun, which is ono of tho bitter
est Republican papers in 'ho coun
try? Why is the Sun so anxious to
have Bryan who il admit s will bo
elected President, defeated in the
nominating convention? ls it be
cause Mr. Bryan is too good a Dem
ocrat to suit the Trusts, whom the
Sun serves? The Sun need not wor
ry itself about Senator Tillman, Me
is for Bryan and will use his influ
ence to have a Bryan delegation sent
from this Stale, and all the honeyed
words of the Sun will affect him not.

have been compelled to curtail pro

means six cents for cotton next Kail.
A 13,000,000 bale crop at six cents
would be worth only $390,000,000,
while a 10,01)0,000 bale crop at ten

In the face of these facts, farmers,
