The Rotifers.
TGood Words.l

It was Leeuwenhoek who, in 1875,
first beheld the bell-animalcules, and in
1902 he first sawathe wheel-animalcules
in some .colored water which had col
lected in q gutter of a house-roof. AT
the present day we know good deal
about the rotifers; the list Of species
yearly increases, and the fascination Of
their study does not diminish on closer
acquaintance with their life and habits.
Within their family circle are tube
builders and house-constructors; the lady
rotifers exhibit the superiority to their
partners already alluded to, and, last Of
all, they seem to possess vitality past
comprehension as to its limits, and be-
yond explanation as to its details. In
nature the rotifers are dried up from
their pools by the heat of the summer
sun, and as mere mummifed dust-specks
they are blown. about by the summer
winds.
You maydry them as they lie on your
miscroscope-slide, till not trace Of
motion remains, and you may keep them
thus dried and parched for days, weeks,
menths, or even years; yet, after such
desiecation and drying, if you but add
a drop Of water or place them amid
moisture. the functions Of life are re-
newed and resume1 with vigor, as If no
epoch Of Rip Van Winkleism, with its
awakening to new life, had taken place.
In what condition the organs, systems,
and tissues of the .wheel-animalcules ex-
ist during their mummy-like period,
physiology does not yet explain; and how
this suspended animation, Stimulating
death, can persist for such heightened
periods with certainty of revival, zoolog-
lists do not profess to make clear.

POETRY.
The EDITORIAL Bore.

As he sat alone on his paper throne,
A stranger strobe through the open
door
A man to the editor not unknown,
Though he had never seen his face be-
fore;
He was one of the kind too well defined
In the editors mind. by the name of
Bore.
He had traced his line back to Palestine
To the Hebrew king so great and wise 4:
He had plucked all the fruit the fair Eve
left
On the tree of knowledge in Paradise /;
And the little below he failed to know,
Was not worth knowing-in his eyes.
He knew the taste of the pOpulace,
How quick the public heart is won
The kind Of news the people choose
How easy an editors work is done;
And he wanted now to show Just how
A first-class paper should be run.
He tried to peruse the political news,
To write leader on who would win /;
On the latest phaze of the Garfield craze.
The chances of counting him out or in /;
And whether the claimant would force
his payment,
And take the prize at the city of CHM.
But the foreman said there were proofs
to be read;
1t was time the telegraph was begun |;
And the pressman below came up to
know
How many extras should be run;
Thus questions of hundred things
Took time and not line was done.
And through them all came the terrible
call
The cry of "copy" from the office lad /;
He clipped out piece Of ancient
Greece"
1t proved to be medicine "ad,'
When the publisher saw the same he
said
Well, some of the words he used were
bad.
He stepped on the toes Of friends and
foes,
And printed as news score of lies,
He left out an "ad," made patron mad,
Pulled man who did not advertise;
Oh, can't begin to relate the sin
That man must answer for when he
dies.
1t was time each chase was locked for
the press,
But still of closing there was no sign
"The mail is missed" the pressman
hissed-
"There goes the whistle of number
miner
For an hour or two the air was blue,
And smelt Of sulphur along the line.
So the editor Gd interim discovered a
place,
To stop the sharp call of the men at the
case,
And out of the basket-the sorrowful
tomb,
Where the buds of young poets were
wasting their bloom
He brought forth these verses, for which
l make room.

Attitude Of the Democratic Party
Toward the Tariff

The attitude Of the democratic party
tawards the present tariff system is still
another cause for the reluctance of the
business public to trust it with the ad-
ministration of the government. Outside
Of the States largely engaged in manu-
featuring, the party is almost solid in its
opposition to protection. In the West
and South it openly favors free trade
Its national platform demands "a tariff
for revenue only" the old phraseology
of "a tariff for revenue affording Incl
dental protection to home industries"
having been changed to square avowal
of opposition to the protective idea. A
tariff for revenue only means, of course,
one with duties so adjusted as to en-
courage importations and thus produce
a large income for the treasury. Heavy
importations imply a small home pro-
duction. The logical conclusion from
the tariff plank Of the Cincinnati plat

The Rev. c. H. Fowler, D. D., Mission
ary Secretary of the Methodist Episco-
pu Church, and formerly Editor of the
Advocate, the chief organ of that
church, has published in the Cincinnati
Gazette an important conversation
which he had on September 81 with Gen
eral Grant, at the latter's home in Gale
ma. The subject of the conversation was
General Hancock and his famous Louisi-
ana Order No. 40. DR. Fowlers state
ment is as follows:
Speaking of Hancock the ex-President
said:
Down to 1854 he seemed like a man
ambitious to do his duty as an officer; /;
but in 1864, when Mcclellan was nom-
mated, Hancock received one vote, and
that greatly excited and changed him. He
was 30 deligh ed that he smiled all over.
1t crazed him. Before that we got on
well; after that he would hardly speak
to me. / was working to enforce the
laws of Congress, and he was working
for the Presidency. Perhaps he thought
1 did not praise him enough but, any
way, he hardly spoke to me. 1t was on
my nomination that he was made a
Brigadier-General in the Regular Army.
When was made General, Stanton told
me it was compliment to me, and that
/ could name the men to fill the vacan-
cies in the Lieutenant-Generalship and
Major-Generalship caused by my pro-
motion. / nominated him for the va
cant Major -Generalship in the Regular
Army. He acknowledged it manfully.
He was a very fair corps commander,
but was never thought of for any great
place. When the Army of the Potomac
was hunting for commander it took
almost everybody-evenc came over into
the West for officers, but nobody ever
even suggested Hancock for the place
After he received that vote in 1864 he
had the bee in his bonnet, and shaped
everything to gain Democratic and
Southern favor. He has watched, and
planned, and waited, till at last he has
received the Democratic nomination"
General, do you think he is in sympa-
thy with the South?"
"He is crazy to be President. He is
ambitious, vain and weak. They will
easily control him."
"Do you think, General, that his cele-
brated Order No. 40 represents the direc-
tion of his sympathies?" ?"
well. 1 will give you the true inner
history of Order No. 40. Congress was
striving to prevent Andrew johnson
from undoing the Reconstruction laws.
Whenever Congress passed law, john
son bent his energies to defeat its en-
forcement and would find pretexts to
dodge round it. Then Congress would
pass another law to hedge him up there.
So it went on till Congress had taken
from him all control of the Generals |
commanding the seven Districts of the
South, except the power to remove them
and appoint others in their places.
These commanders could remove any |
civil officer of any grade, Judge or Gov
ernor. When l was made General and
they were determining my powers and
duties, they gave the General, by acci-
dent / think, or without seeing all it in
volYed, coordinate power with these

The Meaning of It,

The proceedings of the Republican
State Convention will be found in
another place. While bare majority
of the delegates were induced to vote
for an expression in favor of Grant,
yet the vigorous fight made by the
friends of Blaine, and the closeness of
the vote, render it not only no triumph
but actually damaging to the cause of
Grant. All who understand the mat
ter know and see that Pennsylvania
was and is for Blaine, and would have
said so if the people had got fair play.
The meaning of the whole thing, there
fore, is not Grant, but triumph of
Senator Cameron. Allegheny county
turned the scale, while we have not
the slightest doubt that two-thirds of
her Republicans are to-day in SYM
pathy with the Republicans of other
western counties. But her Republican
masses were not permitted to be heard.
Such things must have an end and
soon will One more such victory for
the machine politicians and they will

own representatives, and to attempt to
steal the government of that State.
Our Republican form of government
will be a signal failure when any polit-
ical party can succeed in defying the
public will as shown by the people at
the ballot box
Seventh-We deeply yregretthe grow
ing tendency to throw elections aside
on mere technicalities The right of
the people to choose their public ser
wants is too sacred to be subverted
upon any pretext that the returns of
elections are deficient in some trivial
matters of form.
Eighth-We thank our Senators and
Representatives at Washington in the
last Congress and in this for their firm
adhesion to Republican principles and
policy, and for their opposition to DEM
ocratic schemes to renew the obsolete
doctrine of State rights and to cripple
the Government by Withholding needed
appropriations in order to coeree legis-
lation repeating all National laws that
protect the safety of the ballot box.
Resolced, That the chairman of the
republican State Committee is hereby
instructed and required to carefully ex-
anime whether any person to-day
placed on the electoral ticket be legally
disqualified from any cause from serv-
ing as an elector, and in case any such
legal disability be found the State
Committee shall substitute another
name from the same Congressional dis
trict.
Resolutions indorsing the admins
tration of Gov. Hoyt and providing
for the selection of State Central Com
mittee were also contained in the plat
form, and adopted with it.
After appointing State Committee
the convention adjourned sine de

there are not many who believe he
will do SO. They argue his future by
his past, and say that as he has here
tofore betrayed and misrepresented
the people of this county he will do SO
again. They think that it is 'chronlc"
with him to do so. But in this case,
with the whole three counties OF this
district, Butler, Mercer and Crawford,
instructing their delegates to chicago
for Blaine. we cannot believe those III
structions will be violated in the Ma
tional Convention, and the more par
ticularly as the whole proceedings at
the late Harrisburg State Convention
show that the so-called 'unit rule" Is
a trap, anti-republican in principle and
not to be respected, and in fact was
not respected. Besides, the rute in
our National Conventions expressly
allows delegate to vote the voice ol
the particular district of a State he
NAV represent, regardless of any as
sumed power outside of his constlt-
uents to give him instructions diff
ferent from what they have given him.
The Republicans of this county will
therefore watch closely to see what
will he the outcome of this matter
Mr.. Gordon, we believe to be an
honorable man, and one who will
faithfully carry out the feelings and
instructions OF his own county of Mer-
Ger as we'll as of this and Crawford
counties. They all instructed for
Blaine for President, and did and Will
assert their right to be directly rep
resented in the National Convention.
This right they asserted by naming
their delegates to the National Con-
vention. two of whom were finally
agreed upon among themselves as the
delegates to represent the district.
Other districts in the State claim the
same right, and the National Repub-
lican Convention UiU recognize that
