the social. political, or club life SO far
distant from theirs, in every way.
Writing New York letters under these
restrictions is not making bricks with
out straw, but making them all Of
straw, and pretty finely chopped straw
at that, so it is matter of congratula-
tion to the wliter when he finds his
paragraph on the poor out of work has
moved some one in Yates county to
send him an application for servant
girl to help on farm, offering her
good home for years if she can suit.
The application was handed over to
lady visitor of St Johns Guild who
will take care that the demand is filled
Persons who make such requests in fiji
ture will remember that it is necessary for
them to send satisfactory references
from people of standing as to their abili-
ty to pay and treat a servant well, be-
fore any one will be willing to risk going
to them.
No one who has any feeling for the
poor can object to aid in the work of
helping them to homes and employment
where the benefit is as much on one side
as the other. In the country, where
help is scarce, it is pitiful to see the
numbers out of work here, yet it is diff
ticult to find those willing to leave the
city. A sewing machine agent lately
sent to New York for an operator to
go to a Western city, offering salary
nearly twice what one could get here,
but not one woman could be induced to
take it, though it was offered to some
whose earnings were hardly enough to
pay their board, and whose chance at
best was very preearious. The poor
creatures will run the risk OF starving
rather than go out of town, where-they
would be welcome and comfortable.
The fact is, they will not leave the
city so long as they can exist in it. To
the poor bred here, and accustomed to
the city, there Is nothing SO terrible as
the country. They cling to the city
with all its wretchedness. ignorant that
there is anything better for them out
side. Half the unemployed girls il,
New York are needed in the country,
where they could have good comforta-
bic homes, but they will not go.

A'young man in the rural districts
had parted his hair in the most impair
tial manner; if there was hair more
on one side of his head shan on the
other the difference could not be OBJ
served. He had tolerable good ten
or voicD, and he had mastered a new
song. The moonlight shone brightly
down on the green's ward in front Of the
residence which held the maiden of his
heart. The youth crept softly up the
sidewalk, and let out his soul in melo-
dy, Darling, I'm waiting for thee,
waiting for thee" He had hardly
completed the second chorus when O
window blind was cautiously opened,
something white was seen by the light
of the moon, and an oldish voice, not
in harmony with the music, said Its
all right, young man, bat you needn't
wait any longer; Mariar has gone to
bed.
"Suppose, Belle" said a poor but
honest Chicago youth to a Prairie
avenue girl one day this week, "sup-
pose that q yoang man loved you
dearly-very dearly-but was afraid
to ask you to marry him--maybe be-
cause he was very timid, or felt too
poor, or something-what would you
think of such a case 2"
"Think? ?" answered the girl imme.
diately. "Why, if he was poor, I
should think that he was doing just
right in keeping still about it.
The question was dropped right
there.

feel in earnest now, as I did during
the war. ] have no retreat to make
The reason | have left the Democratic
party is, | have no faith in it, and no
faith IN the old rebel element which I
have long feared would come TO the
front, and which ! now know and see
has come, and whose coming has made
my way clear and my course of duty
plain. Seeing these men again at the
head of the party, and seeing the def
ance of the men who last held Office in
the National Government under the
Democratic party makes things plain
enough. Among the last Democtstic
officers of any note were Floyd and
Jake Thompson, the Democratic Sec
retary of War and the Interior. Thev
sole from the Government they we're
sworn to serve to help the rebellion
raised to destroy it, and beside their
crimes and their corruptions all that
is charged against the Republican Off
cials, admit it all to be true even,sinks
into insignificance.
Why, old Jake Thompson, encour.
aged by the defiance of Ben Hills
speech, went down to Washington
few months ago. and like a braggart
demanded investigation, pompously
saying that he would wave the legal
point of time. He went down there
blowing, and got sue6--for the money
he had stolen for the rebels. IF old
Floyd We're alive, he, too, probably
would go down there, under the pro.
lection of the rebel shadow of Ben
Hill, and demand investigation. But
like the child covered with the curse of
crime against Abraham Lincoln, he
also had the good sense to die. He

out early so as to be safe. If he had
stood his ground like brave man, he
would probably had the good fortune
to die earlier. But he lii out. He
could steal for the Confederacy, but he
couldn't die for it.
1t is his fault, gentlemen, and not
mine, that his memory is not to be
spoken of with more respect. This
Thompson and Floyd were the last of
the Democratic rulers, and they rep
resented the domination of the South
in Democracy then. And Thompson
and his friends, and the friends of
Floyd are again pressing to the front
to assume party control. AS they have
come as leaders, | have asked and ta.
ken the privilege of leaving the Dem.
ocratic ranks. This, fellow citizens, is
why l am here tonight.
Finally, gentlemen, l would say
keep a solid front and we will beat
them. l hope and think we will. I
am with you in earnest. Close up to
the fight. They mean business, and
we must. 1t is something of the old
fight, only it is to be fought at the bal
lot box instead of on the battle field.

heard me so patiently. 1 have not

you, my neighbors, why / have chang

A DIseUsTED DEMOCRAT.

Perhaps the severest loss which the
Democratic party has yet suffered in
the West is that of Gen. James M.
futile, Of Iowa, who has abandoned
the party unequivocally, and told in
vigorous language why he can no lon
ger remain with it. Gen. Tuttle was
War Democrat and, as a, successful
officer and strong man Of great popu-
larity, he has been the head of the
Iowa Democracy for fifteen years,
their candidate for Governor in 1853,
and for Congress in 1860. He was
always stronger than the party, and
has always maintained the principles
for which he fought. The recent sue
cesses of his party and the doings of
the House of Representative and the
st. Louis Convention have shown him
what would be the result of Democrat.
ic victory in the Presidential canvass.
He therefore repudiates his party and
their two faced ticket, and announces
himself a voter and worker for Hayes
and Wheeler. This he did in response
to serenade by the Hayes and
Wheeler club Of Des Moines, recently
rendered. We take the leading points
of his speech from the IotOd State Req
ister. The speech was impromptu but
is none the worse for that, as it
breathes throughout with strong, clear.
cut sentences. Gen. Tuttle spoke as
follows:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMAN
OF THE HAYES AND WHEELER CLUB:
When concluded to change my party
I thought that might get to do it
quietly. 1t was private act and re-
quired no public announcement, and
there was no one to whom / was obli-
gated to account for such an action.
But as my course has been so assaiIed,
and l have been called so severely to
account, may as we'll embrace this
opportunity to tell both my Demo.
cratic and my Republican friends why
| have left the old Democracy and
why am here tonight. The act of
my change was private one, but my
reasons for SO doing were public ones,
and they may be told, and shall be.
| am no speaker and make no preten-
sions of being. But / can talk to you
as neighbors. have been considered
doubtful by many Democrats for
nearly two years. Indeed / never
have been Democrat if fhe issues on
which they are fighting this year are
the principles of the party. But
nearly two years ago the course of
duty was developed much more plainly
than it ever had been before. What
| had seen before that was wrong l
had continued to hope would be found
to be mistakes that would be mend
ed.

REBEL DEMOCRATS.

Nearly two years ago was in St.
Louis. Now there is nothing peculiar
in simply having been at St. Louis.
But was there also in 1851. That
was just after the first battle of Bull
Run, and St. Louis was thoroughly,
wildly, insanely rebel. 1t was worth
mans life then almost to be seen in
the Union uniform. A Union officer
about the hotels, where congregated
the noisiest secession elements, was
hooted at and derided, and told, with
sneers, Eyes, you'll go South, and you
will come back, as the Union soldiers
have just come back from Bull Run,
with their tails tucked. But, as I
remember it, none of our troops from
Iowa ever came back in that shape.
That was the feeling in st. Louis in
1861, and this feeling l found there
again in the same spirit and in the
same places, re-expressed by the very
same men, when | was there in 1874
it was then that heard that the Dem
ocrats had elected a majority of the
national House, and these same fell
lows who swaTmed about the hotel
talking treason and deriding Union
soldiers in 1861 were exultant and de-
lirious with joy this last time. l re-
marked to a gentleman who had been
a comrade with me in the war, "This
looks like the same set of fellows who
were spouting treason here at the be-
ginning Of the war. What is it that
is exciting them so, and what ails
them ?" We asked a squad of them
what it was that made them feel so
good? heard one of them say, "We
have got them this time. We can
beat them this time" We asked who
they ment by "them ?" They replied,
"We'll elect the next President, and
then we've got them. Then we'll get
pay for all our property destroyed in
the war, and then we'll get pay for
our lost slaves. We have the House
overwhelming now, and in 1876, the
Centennial year, we can get the Senate
and a Democratic President. Then
VIC can appoint our committees to
suit ourselves, and choose our own
Southern claim committee or South
ern Claims Court, and make good our
losses by the war" They meant that
they would get pay for all-the proper
ty destroyed by the Union Army, and
pay for all their emancipated slaves.
