TIE NAPOLEON

Since the death of Napoleon, the
~, who fell a victim to an ambus-
Cade while accommodating in the Brit
ish service in Zululand, there has
been much conjecture as to who
would succeed HIM and the
title of Napoleon V. The telegraph
informs us that the Bonepartists in
France are under considerable EN-
barrassment. While determining to
keep up the empire, they are at loss
for an Emperor. Paul de Cassagnac
is reproached with indiscretiOn in
putting forth the name of Prince Vic
tor Bonepartc as prctendcr to tue
imperial succession. C~assagnac re-
plies that nothing has been officially
determined on, though perhaps a de-
ci8iOn may be arrived at in Il few
days. 1t is believed hat Rouher re-
CARDS the alleged will comforting tina,

is thought that Prince Jerome will
not become a pretender himself nol
allow either of his sons to assume
such a position, and in that event the
Bonapartists must fall back upor

THE VETO.

AS has been expected for s&eSl
days the President has returned "a;
Congress tie s'army appropriation
bill'' and the ''act masking appropria-
tions for certain judicial expenses"
with messages approving the for
mer and Withholding his assent from
the latter. The reason given for
vetoing the judicial expenses bill is
based upon the ground that if allow
ed to become law the bill would de-
feat enforcement of the congressional
election laws by withholding the
means to pay the marshals and their
deputies. The President and the adj
ministratlon are determined to hold
on to the power given them by law to
interfere with elections. They
do not seek to justly their use of
marshais and the army. They seem
to think that the propriety of employ
ing the civil and military arms as has
been done is self-evldent and needs
neither apology nor bolstering. They
maintain that it is the duty of Con-
gross to make appropriations to exc
cute every law that is in the statute
books, whether that be constitutional
or not, political or not, just or not,
condemned by the people or not.
Such a principle never obtained in
this or any other government that
had a Legislative body empowered to
make appropriations. The idea that
representative is bound to regard
an act either constitutional, just, Oh
~expedient because it is in the statute
book is ridiculous. There never
were laws more clearly unconstitu
ton and oppressive than COMPRESSION
oil election laws and the right of Con
gress to defeat them IN any mannel
it pleases is quite as clear. No Law
can be executed without employment
of money, and the constitution vest
in the lower House of Congress thu
right to withhold it. No othe
branch Of the government a a.
much as originate a bill to take none.
out of the treasury. 1t is difficult t
see how any Representative can ap
propriate money to support %unconsti
tutional measures without violation
of his official oath. The bill that has
been vetoed appropriates all the mon
ey that has been demanded for the sup
port of the Judiciary, and when tie

Free election is the great safety

For The Cecil Wing.
How Politics and Temperance Work.

Now that the political agitators of the
temperance question are preparing for a
contest in behalf of Local Option. let us
examine the basis of their expectations.
They boldly assert that the sentiments
favorable to Local Option has increased
rapidly in Cecil recently, but the asser-
ton is improved and without the appear
ancc of any evidence to prove it. They
rely on the promises of Democratic poll
ticians and o.ficc-seckcrs for support, but
these tricksters have often been favora-
BILE to the movements about the COM
mencement of campaigns, and never on
election days; yet some people cannot
learn by experience, because they Twill
not see Another idea is to get up an
excitement that will influence the Demo-
Gratis to nominate ticket pledged to the
support of the measure. What better
prospect is there now than there was four
years ago. when they got up the Wood
lawn meeting for that purpose, and sent
to New York for model leader of the
Democrats to address it, which had the
effect of drawing out a large number of
the faithful. but the object of the meet
ING was failureo Notwithstanding it
was called to meet two or three weeks
earlier than the usual time of holding
nominating conventions, the Democratic
managers, representatives of the liquor
trade, were day ahead with William

| track. Who can find Democrat that
withheld his support from that ticket on
| account of temperance principles? All
| observing men of Cecil county are aware
that the Democrats never have nomi-
mated a ticket favorable to prohibition,
when the question was agitated, while
the Republicans have generally nomi-
mated candidates favorable to the move
ment. thus driving the Republicans in

sition, leaving none but temperance Re

CHANCE SHOTS.

Young man. this is the best advice | can
give you just now: Act natural, or do not
act ut all; always be yourself, nothing more,
nothing less.
We should remember this, the world is
more inclined 10 give lis credit for what we
are doing than for what we have done or
| intend to do.
After a man has made Il reputation, 20
| prevent infringement, it would be happy
thing if he could have it patented.
| The man who will agree TO work for moth
ing, is the hardest kind of II man to satisfy,
when you come to settle with him.
l have seen folks spend all their principal,
| and then try to live on the interest OF it,
This is gloomy.
To let yourself down to any mans level
| is easy enough, but to get back to where you
came from and not tear your clothes is pure
business.
My sweet youth, You We're given two ears,
and one tongue, and two eyes, for a wise
purpose. What do you suppose the purpose
| was?
Many people are afraid to be natural for
fear they Will be called common but the
truth is, we are never so strong nor s.
| interesting, as when we are perfectly
natural.
Money can make n man notorious, but
cannot make him respectable; but one
half the people do not know the difference.
Do not suppose there is any such thing us
perfect happiness, and what little hap
piness there is, is largely composed OF
this mean ingredient; we are happy just
| in proportion as we have got something
that others have not got, nor cannot get.
Probably the great successes of life have
often most been reached by knowing how to
take advantage of our lucky moments.
My dear boy, lay this up on your upper
| shelf-if You hit the bull's-e,e ninety
nine times, and miss the hundreth, the
world never forgets the miss and cannot
seem to rememb Der the hits
| If it We're not for the risks, there wouldn't
| be any fun living in this world; dead sure
| things (enough Of them) will demoralizc
any MAJ.
Why do we love little children so much?
Is it not on account of their simplicity, all
of it, springs from their faith!
| 1t is not after all so much what we enjoy,
us what we expect to get, that makes us
happy.
The man who will not forget anything is
| not agoing to learn much more.
There is one rule which believe has no
| exception to it; when Il man falls down on
| the ice, where the water is an inch and
| half deep, he never feels proud of the job.
About one-half of the trouble in this
world is manufactured to order ont of no
thing, and large share of the other half Is
the result of not knowing the true value Of
| things
The world has many people in it who are
very respectable simply because they are
very proper.
