DoN'T LIKE PARKER GUNs.-The DEM
ocrat is opposed to all breech-loaders, and
to Parker guns in particular. In fact the
Doctor is opposed to all new-fangled notions
and innovations in firearms as well as in
politics. The Editor belongs to the era Of
flint-locks which extend back to the poetic
period of bows and arrows. We, too, have
a warm side for the old tiint-lock, for what
it has done. 1t gave our Revolutionary
sires "big lift in gaining American In
dependence. The old flint.lock was an
effective weapon at short range on dry
day. 1t was a flashy old gun, however,
and made great ado about going of, burn
ing nearly as much powder in the pan as in
the barrel. We commend the Doctor for
his love Of the time honored old fint-lock,
and advise him to stick to it. The inherent
properties of that old arm for making
noise and smoke, burning powder and flash
ing at the pan, bore singular resemblance
to the Doctors political fusillade. The
Democrat pops away with the old fiint-lock
lively, at the President in Washington and
Gen. Butler in Massachusetts,, which is a
very harmless amusement. The range is
entirely too long for that old gun. 1t
seems to please the Doctor, however, and
does not hurt either of those dignitares.
Stick to the old fiint-lock and States
Rights, Doctor, in fire arms and politics,
and don't attempt to master the philosophy
of patent h-loaders and political econ
omY of this fast age.

George E. Pugh, the once gifted lead

out, however, with a conundrum, which is
unanswerable. Hear him:
Now, where is your Democratic party
Talk to me about it 1 give you the
answer which the people gave when
Louis Philippe thought he might put his
grandson on the throne: " 1t is too late, !"
[Applause.l And you marched off to the
city of Baltimore, and, with the delegates
of the Democratic party from every State
in the Union, you supported Horace Gree
ley and B. Gratz Brown, with the relega-
ton of free trade to the Congressional dis
trict. And now we have my dear old
friend William Allen brought up-and a
parcel of other old boys and young boys
with paper caps on their heads, with chick
en- feathers in them, and wooden swords,
blowing tones from tin horns and beating
drums! And talk to me about the Demo
cratic party. You killed it, and you new
or can revive it.

Grand total,


This is the Democratic showing of ex
penditure in county taxation in sic gears;
a matter of 1902, 1919 more, in sic gears
management of the county finances than
the Republican party expended in the previ-
Gus seuen gears. Comment is needless. If
any sensible man had a business amounting
to upwards of a hundred thousand dollars
annually, and he had two sets of managers
to select employees from, the difference
between which, in the expenses incurred
in transacting that business for period of
seven years, would involve about three
hundred thousand dollars, which class
would he be likely to select from? Is not
the saving in taxation precisely the same
to every property holder as saving like
amount in conducting his private business
The servants which have saved for you in
the past it is fair to presume will prove
economical in the future; while those who
have been spendthrifts will, if unrebuked,
become more reckless and extravagant in
future,
