THE REPUBLICAN PARTY MUST
LkAn

The Carson appeal INDUCES in a
small bit OF a growl about the action OF
the Republican State Central Committee
at its recent meeting in Virginia City.
The appeal naturally favors Carson as
the proper place for all conventions and
political gatherings. as well as legisla-
tive sessions. yet since 1t Is decided not
TO hold the State Convention there,
approves OF Eureka as the favored place.
II thinks, however. that the time and
place for holding said convention has
been fixed too long beforehand, as
though the Eureka saloon.keepers did
not need a longer time for preparation
than those Of Carson. The Appeal
winds up its rheumatic growl as follows:
Wa are frank 10 say that We had hoped
that the time for holding our convention
would not be made public until after the
Democrats had shown their hands. IL
there Is any advantage IN DO gained In
having Q chance TO sec what your opponent
proposes 10 do before acting yourself. the
Republican Central Committee would
seem TO have made the precipitous blunder
Of giving the Democracy the advantage
indicated.
The Appcal should bear in mind that
tho Republican party is the leufi"9
political power. We propose to take
the fsld and whip the Democracy in q
square fight. asking neither favor nor
advantage. Such action as the appeal
iavors would indicate conscious weak
noes. fear OF excessive caution. Let
the Democracy stand back and wait re-
specially until We have made u non,i.
nations. and moreover let us nominate
better and stronger men than they ean.
Read the kilograms from Washington
and see II It is not about time that the
Democracy was made to stand back.

The CAT BIRD.-One of our most
familiar birds, and one which should
rank in our affections along with the
bluebird and robin is the cat-bird. But
unfortunately he is the subject of very
general prejudice, not merely on &C
count Of his undeniable propensity to
steal cherries, but also because many
persons dislike the cat-like notes which
he utters on certain occasions. But if
he is to be condemned to persecution
on account of these faihngs, we must
also consider that he is worse than the
Robin and mocking-bird only from his
greater abundance; and when we enlist
our thoughts in his favor, and consid er
his confident familiarity with us, his
graceful form, playful manners, and in
teresting song, we may readily forgive
all his shortcomings. Though dis
tinguished by his song, which notwith-
standing its frequent interruption by
limitations, is eminently original in
style, it is, however, his manners which
commend him most to our notice.
There is scarcely an orchard in the
land, from the Atlantic coast to the
western base of the Rocky Mountains,
and from the Gulf Of Mexico to the
British Provinces, which is not enlivened
by the presence of one Or more pairs of
cat-birds; and very incomplete an
American orchard would seem without
them. At all hours of the day his
cheerful song may be heard from among
the green boughs of an apple tree; and
when the heat of the midday sun tells
him that a bath would be refreshing,
he comes and splashes in the wash-nasin
at the back-door In the most perfect
civilized style. And then when we re-
turn his familiarity, and, unlimited, in
trude upon his own household, We can
Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1878-04-24

not but admire the courage with which
he rem onstrates and defends his home.
And then, too. his trim graceful form,
plain but neat dress, and bright, easy
manner still further tend to win our
esteem.
The song of the cat-bird is one which.
though vigorous and pleasing, we can
not ourselves admire, though we admit
our liability to error of judg as
of other things, and may through bad
taste do him injustice. But in our
assumed Office of critic it is our duty to
speak truthfully and plainly, and dis
claiming any intention of disparaging
tho qualities of cultivation of his voice,
we will proceed in the performance of
our task. His song has sufficient vigor,
for he is untiring in his efforts to please
us: and itshas strength enough, for he is
ever ambitious to make Lis voice con-
spicious in the morning chorus; and we
occasionally catch snatches of soft and
sweet notes, or he even now and then
manages TO execute some very brilliant
passage. But should the latter be the
case, he seems himself astonished
though evidently we'll pleased, for he
pauses as if waiting for expecting ap-
plause. In his performance there is too
much elaboration, and the general
effect is that he is merely practicing,
during when at times get tired ofhis own
voice, and substitutes other sounds which
he has heard. These he initiates with
tolerable success, but we must say that
the squeal ola young pig, the squeaking
of a hinge, or the squall ola Cat sounds
which he affects more than the notes
of songsters- a harsh interruption
to a song which might otherwise be
pleasing RIDGEwAY, in Har-
per's Magazine for May.

A Dog OF a Husband and Plucky little
Woman

The st. Louis Republican of recent
issue contains the following: Since Mrs.
Martha A. Berge got divorce from her
husband, Louis Berge, on the ground of
inhuman treatment of her, she has had
a great deal of trouble with the cast off
man. He is musician and keeps a
little music shop. She was the money
partner of the welded firm, having in
herited wealth, all of which Berge had
not yet been able to wiring from her.
She got the custody of all their five chill
dren and the court did not give him
any further interest in his wife's prop
erty. But he was in the habit of taking
it whenever he could lay hands on it..
He took her piano by force and seemed
still to regard his divorced wife's prop
erty as his own ifhe could get it. The
other night when she was out visiting,
her apartments were entered by win
dow, and diamonds and other Jewels to
the value of ST. 400 were taken from her
trunk. Mrs Berge had her precious
ex-husband arrested for burglary and
robbery, and has a dead case against
him. A witness testified that he saw
Berge enter her rooms by the window
and come cut fifteen minutes latter. The
police found a package Of jewels hid
den in the cellar of Bergo's store, and
the wife Unidentified them as hers. An
other witness swears Berge told him that
he was going to take the property in
question from Mrs. Berge and that he
returned to his shop subsequently with
a large bundle. Mrs. Berge is little.
dark, determined woman. The prison
er tried to catch her eye while she was
giving her evidence, but it would not
turn towards him. When she came
down from the witness stand, Berge
rose from the side of his lawyer and a
very dramatic scene ensued between
the former husband and wife. Berge
addressed her.
" Have you no pity for me?"
Had you any pity for me when you
made my life miserable for eighteen
years." replied his wife.
"Have you no lover"
Lover with a sarcastic laugh, Glove!
Oh, no, that's dead long ago-you killed
it."
Would you send me down to pris-
on cell?"
:" What is a prison cell compared to
the hell you have kept me in all these
years, you who killed my father and
our child. Yes, I would send you to a
prison CELL"
{" But my misery-my misfortune
will nothing move your"
" Nothing, you have brought this up
on yourself; you can take the conse-
quences"
And the little woman took a friends
arm and left the court The prisoner
was held in default of bail.

Hot Springs (Ark.) Telegraph.
A poor, unfortunate man by the
name of Brothers, from Texas, who is
suffering from insanity caused by ex-
cessive use of ardent spirits, has caused
considerable trouble and excitement in
the upper part of the valley during the
past few days. He is boarding at the
Kingsbury Cottage, we learn; and night
before last in consequence Of his raw
ings was taken in hand by the police
and locked in Jail. Yesterday about
noon as he was passing by the store of
Mr.. Lowry, near the Jordan cottage,
he went into the store and Selling a
heavy weight, threatened to kill the
clerk unless he would let him have
what he wanted. He then seized a
quart bottle of whisky and putting it to
his mouth drained every drop before
removing it. He then seized another
bottle and nearly drained that. In a
few minutes he dropped insensible
from the effects of the oyerdraught of
the liquor, and was taken up and car
ried to his boarding house. 1t is be-
lieved that the enormous amount of
whiskey taken into his stomach may
kill him; if he should survive it, his
friends, if he has any, should come
for him and either take him away or
put him under proper discipline and
surveillance.

principles. Your horse having worked
hard for you during the past season, it
is your duty to take good care of the
animal after the service he has performed
for you. Plenty of warm bedding, good
feed, and bran mash once week, with
some of Sloan's Condition Posoders, will
nut him IN good order for next season.
If your Druggist does not keep the
'owder, send IS or so cents, and you will
