Waits from the Political Whirlpool.

THE Democratic party is party of Professors-of
Reform.
THE Bookwater Literary Bureau is to be edited by
j. Edwin Spear. He ought to be incisve.
lNlooks as though when Cook struck Morrison he
knocked the cents-es out of the American people.
WHAT a huge joke it would be, now. if that Demo
crat would hunt up Capt. Cook, and give him good
drubbing.
THE n. Y. Tribune has the Ohio campaign fgure
down in this way-Bookwalter represents Guiteau
and Foster represents Garfield.
WE still have the cheering news from Washington
that the President is ION the high road TO GONZALES
cense.' 1t seems to be long weary way.
THEY going to Greenback ticket in Pike
County. If the Greenbackers want to succeed over
there they will have to put 'Gnral Jackson on the
ticket.
PRESIDENT GARFIELD is still in very dangerous
conditon-notwith iths landing the bulletins of the ply
sicians. That lone chance is still somewhat sen
der
| BooKwALTER is trying to initiate Mr.. Tildens po-
itical methods. He ought invent cipher dispatch
scheme. What beautiful "coparcener'' Col. Vance
would make.
| MIR. BooKwALTER may be large employer, but
that gives him claim upon the workingmen. They
doubtless render him full value for every dollar they
get from him.
DEMOCRATS bitterly denouncing the
'spnils SYSTEM They beginning to that the
abolition of party lines is the only hope Dem. poll
tician has of getting an Office.
CAPT. Cook, who slapped George Morrison's mouth
for saying he hoped Garfield would die has already
received enough by one-cent subscriptions to buy
him gold watch and quarter of beef.
THE old wheel-horses of Democracy, having been
uniformly defeated for than twenty years, are
standing back this year. and allowing the boys to run
capital lasts.
Now let the truly pious Democratic country editors
of Ohio say, honest lnjin,' which commands their
admiration most-the fact that Bookwaters name is
John Wesley, the fact that he owns big hotel in
Springfield, with big bar under it.
+ GEORGE MORRISON must think he is of con-
siderable prominence in this country as the Ameri-
people willing to give at least five hundred
dollars to see his mouth slapped. If we were Morri
son would keep that mouth shut-just for spte.''
SOME of the Democratic barrel-suckers argue that
Mr.. Bookwalter is very good, religious man, because
/, his mother gave him the name of John Wesley
Some of the meanest and lowest men we ever knew
were named 'John Wesley" There's nothing in
name
OUR DEM friends greved full sore, because. as
they allege Governor Foster does not love the Meth
odst preachers with the love that "surpasseth the
love of women" The DEM party has been very piou:
since Bob ngerson went around in 1876 telling
it how mean it
THE Democratic loafers who make a living out o.
politics. loading up the labor question, and
will shortly have the amusing spectacle of oafel
who never did days work in his life, standing up
with tears in his eyes, and bewailing the hard lot o
the laboring man, in these prosperous Republican
times.
WITH Bishop, and once with Allen, the Democrats
succeeded in carrying Ohio. Both these men were
old line Democrats at the time of their nomination
They have not been successful with renegade Repub
licans-either in State Nation. Possibly our Dem
ocratic friends have noticed this but it
nevertheless.
DEMOCRATIC politicians still harping abou
being the champions of labor and laboring They
men. Now, if there is newspaper man anywhere
whom it would be perfectly safe to believe, Nichols
of the Springfield Republic, is such man. Nichols

warmly praised by Democrats, and he finds that dur
ing the hardest times of the panic Mr.. Bookwaltel
sent his foreman to the foreman of another manufac
turing establishment in Springfield, to learn wha
wages were being paid. Upon being informed, Mr.
