A York State Farmer Who
Loves to Fish.

In Chilli there is an elderly farme,
who is passionately fond of sport
especially fishing and hunting-and
he has son who is chip of the old
block in that as well as in other res,
poets.
One day last summer the old gen,
tleman left home, but before going
set his boy at a job he was anxious ,e
have done. Returning sooner thar
he was expected, he found that the
boy was missing.
where's Tom ?" he growled, as he
entered the kitchen door.
"Gone fishing" said the girl.
Fishing !! the rascal; I'll fish him
when l catch him !"
And away the angry old fellow
went for the brook. Coming within
hailing distance of his hopeful son
who was bending eagerly over the
stream, the father yelled:
"Tom! you scoundrel, Tom!'
There was deprecating movement
of one hand on the part of the boy
who did not, however, turn his head
Still more angry, the avenging par
ent came nearer and bawled out:
I'll learn you to stay home and
work when"
"Sh !. sh! sh! father" said young
Izaak Walton, "Pve got a bite.'
The old fellows passion percepti.
bly, cooled at that announcement, and
luckily for the boy, the latter jus,
then hauled up handsome perch
This was too much for dad, who
sprung forward and helped unhool
the fish, and then:
tom, have you got another hook p
Victory perched on the boys fish.

DEMOCRATIC ,mrAMY.

We are confident the history of th'
Lower House Of our National Legis
lature never showed such q wanton
unjust and dishonest, unseating o.
members of the minority by the ma.
jority, in the case of contested seats
as has taken place in the present Con-
gress. The last case is that of Oar.
relI, republican, whose seat is given
to AckliD, democrat. Not one dem.
ocrat who has contested q republican
seat, has been defeated. In this case
there was not even the color of title
by Acklin. In addition to this ras-
oally unseating of republicans, the
House has turned out all the Grip
pied union soldier employees and left
not q republican serving that body.
Every democratic Governor off state
has made q clean sweep Of republican
officials within his reach; even Wade
Hampton and Nichols have not left
one republican in the state govern
ments. No where withinthe whole
union, have democratic officials given
place to a single republican and yet a
republican President goes right on
giving Office to democrats, in order
to conciliate them. Is it not about
time that the President saw some ev-
idencc of fruits, by return Of the
compliment on the part of the democ-
racy, or else ought he not to put
stop to his foolish, nonsensical policy
of bestowing favors upon them?

An Old Shaver.

An English physician relates an an

from some slight symptoms ofgout.
| recommended glass Of hot whis-
key and water every day, in prefer
ence to physics of any kind, but my
reverend friend, with upturned eyes,
absolutely refused to accept my pre-
scription, saying: "No, no, Doctor,
have all my life preached against al
cohol in any form. 1t that is the only
remedy 1 must continue to suffer.
Besides" said he, 'if I rang for OF
water my servants would guess its
purpose" Said l, "You shave, ring
the bell for shaving water, mix your
glass of medicinal whisky, and who
will be the wiser but yourselt?' The
parson at last submitted and we
warmly shook hands and parted. In
a few weeks time, my carriage pas.

me of my clerical friend. l touched

The New York World is par er-
cellence the leading democratic jour.
nal of this country. 1t does the silver
business thus:
Those who have deluded themselves
into the notion that this scandalous
movement means simply the remone-
tization of silver will do we'll now to
consider whether it is in human ma
ture that q desire merely TO see two
kinds of metal used as money instead
of one kind of metal, should so ex-
cite the passions of great people.
Where 30 formidable an effect ap-
pears an adequate cause needs to be
found and the true significance Of
the silver movement must be sought
in the insolvency of great masses of
our population, who have madly per-
suaded themselves that their individ-
ual fortunes can be redressed by ad-
Indicating the whole nation into
bankruptcy. Ifthey are now to have
their will Of the credit and the hon.
or of the American Government, it
may IS we'll be plainly understood
that this bill, which has already been
openly described and advocated and
advocated by its most conspicuous
representative in the Senate, Mr..
VOORHEES,, as measure in behalf of
labor and the rights of labor against
capital and the tyranny of capital,
must inevitably lead to a systematic
and sustained assault upon property
in all the forms of credit, private as
we'll as public, What that will lead
to we prefer to leave our readers to
consider just at present for them
selves.
There is no law against mans de-
claring himself idiotic or a rascal.

MANCHESTER, Iowa, Feb. 2l.-The
latest sensation in these parts is the
flight of P. s. Marvin, well-known
live stock dealer and resident of
Dyersville. He left about fifteen days
ago for Chicago with nine car loads
OF hogs, since which time nothing has
been heard ofhim. He also left num-
erous debts behind him, amounting
in the aggregate to about 100000.
He had been owing many farmers
for the past two years for live stock,
and had also borrowed several thou
sand dollars, giving forged notes on
his brother-in-law, as collateral Sc
curity, and none of his unlawful
transactions were discovered until a
few days after he had left.
He was an active member Of the
Congregational church and superin-
tendent Of q Sabbath school, man
Of pleasing address, and had many
friends and the confidence of the
public in remarkable degree.

WHAT becomes Of the story so in.
dustriously reported, that our bonds
were being returned to this country
ON account of the certainty of the
passage Of the silver bill, when our
dispatches, yesterday, showed that
American securities had gone up in
stead of down. London is the seat
Of the money power of Europe, and
right there better demand for Amer
lean bonds is exhibited upon
the heels of the passage of the silver
bill by the Senate. No more scare
crows, gentlemen The people OF
this country have discarded the false-
hoods 30 freely given out from Wall
street, because the people demand
both gold and silver to pay their
debts with.

THE war in Europe has not, up to a

recent shipments show that 1t is now
being felt quite perceptibly. During

seaports have shown . shipment from
this country Of about twelve millions
Of dollars Of produce, which is q very
unusual amount. The mobilization

Mrs. Chisholm AttDNding tho Tria
OF Her Husbands Mas1daEero.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.-Mrs. CHS
holm has returned from Mississippi
where she went to attend as q witness
the trial of her husbands murderers.
She represents matters as completely
under the control of the desperadoes
who murdered her husband and chill
dren. Before testifying she was
warned by the District Attorney not
to say one word except in answer to
questions. If she alluded to any
event calculated to prove the conspir-
acy by reference to murders subse-
quently committed, she was immedi-
ately arrested in her testimony aud
not allowed to 60 on. If she men,
toned anything said by her husband,
she was told the court did not wish
to know anything of the pivatc COM
munications between her and her
husband. When she stated that shots
were fred at the house and into the
house, which she knew because she
heard the bullets striking it, and be-
cause she sent her son to the roof of
the house to see the bullet-holcs, and
he reported number, she was again
stopped and asked if she saw those
bullet-holes herself, her reply being
that, as she was not an expert il
climbing, she had not. The whole
testimony was pronounced insufficien
Many of the rabble. Who were dis

some Of these Same persons are OF

comes up. The Judge charged the
jury, and he assured them that unless
there was conspiracy, which there
was not, and unless Chisholm was
proven qualified voter, which he
was not, they could not but acquit,

Legislature should be cut down to
the lowest practicable amount. We
must provide with economic care and
yet not to their injury, for taking

We should not, however, UNDER

or additions to our public buildings
that can by any reasonable possibili-

the loss Of desirable improvements
even those which might subject US to

The Logic of It.


The Cincinnati Times, the leading
Republican paper Of the Presidents
own State, thus sums up and sets out
in brief sentences the logic of the
Louisiana trouble from the beginning
of it under Hayes. 1t is so good ,and
so true, that we copy it here editori.
ally to endorse it:
l. 1t Was perfectly correct to use
all the influence of the Federal Gov
ernment to protect the Louisiana Re-
turning Board from violence while q
President was being elected.
:. The President being elected, it
was no longer right to interfere with
the affairs of Sovereign State even
to protect its government from being
overthrown by mob violence.
3. But, at the same time, it scas
right to interfere with the affairs Of q
sovereign State by sending Com
mission to assist the mob violence in
overthrowing the aforesaid govern
ment.
4. But, the Returning Board hay-
ing elected President it is no long
err right to interfere in the affairs of
sovereign State to protect them fr
violence, so they are left to be sen
prison by packed jury.
5. 1t being observed that the Re-
publican North is cup on its ear" so
to speak, over the matter, it is con-
cluded to announce through the press,
that the President is getting . good
ready to be Indignant" on the SUBJ
ject.
6. He writes letter, and, in con-
sequence of the disgust of part of his
Cabinet, concludes to write another
with little bit moro indignation in
it.
z. The point over which he is in
dignant Is that the new Louisiana
government, established by mob
force, did not keep the bargain which
it made with the Commission in re-
turn for their help in overthrowiug
the legal government.
8. The net result is that the people
are SO diabolically disgusted with
that which the honest work Of the
Returning Board brought upon them
that it somewhat overshadows their
sympathy for the Board in the midst
'of their atrocious prosecutions.

The Silver 6lll

Az it came from the Senate, passed
the House, yesterday, 2lst inst. Pru-
dence, common sense, finally prevail
ed and silenced the hot heads whom
the bill didn't entirely please. The
vote Of l95 to II was q sufficiently de-
cisive enc to show where the House
would surely stand in case Of veto.
The president will probably take
some action soon. It would be inn
possible to guess what he will do.
II we knew the president personally,
were acquainted with his disposition,
We would make guess, but as it is
We won't try. His refusal to sign il
will not kill the bill, but it will quite
effectually kill him.
