Political,

Mr.. T. Adams is too old bird to
be caught with chaf He declines to al
low his name to be used in connection
with the Governorship of Massachusetts,
Charles A. Buckalew. recently a
United States Senator from Pennsylva-
MIA, will be one of the Democratic candi-
dates for the State Senate.
The Richmond Enquirer says
g Brick Pomeroy has turned up as a
temperance lecturer We have ceased to
feel any interest in him. 1t is like lion
turned vegetarian
The World is encouraging the Ger
, mans to become Democrats, in order to
secure unrestricted lager 1t is direct
insult to the Germans to intimate that
they will follow a mug of beer anywhere,
just as a hog will run in tow Of pail
full Of swill.
-Gerritt Smith, in recent letter, ad-
mits that prohititory Jaw cannot be en-
forced by such governments as the world
Is generally cursed with. A new govern
ment is needed. A new style of Govern
ment is needed 'sHe does not describe
the ''new STYLE" nor say when the world
is to have it.
