The Democratic Plan.

This country is filed periodically
with cries for reform; and most of the
reforms demanded are reforms in the
management of the Federal Govern
ment Here is an association which
tells us that the civil service is utterly
corrupt, shamefully inefficient, and the
best efforts of our public servants are
given TO partisan politics instead OF the
public business. 1t must be reformed
or we are ruined. There is another
declaring that we are being eaten up
by monopolies. and that the policy Of
Government is TO foster and encourage
them. They must be restrained or VIC
are undone. :,

CHRISTMAS EVE.

How lovely must have been the night
When, from the silent sky,
Pure angcl-voccs sang aloud,
'.Giory to God on hight
bright Christmas stars their radiance shed
Where weary shepherds lay,
And starting from their dreams, they heard,
'sTo you Is born this day
/. A Savior. who is Christ the Lordv'
Thus to n world of shame,
At midnight, centuries ago,
The blessed message came.
Tho shepherds listened eagerly,
Half-hopeful, half-afraid;
Then followed where the brightest star
A cleaning pathway made
II sbone before them through the night,
A glowing, steadfast ray.
That chcercd their hearts, and guided them
To where the ''young CHILD" lay.
in a manager slept the holy child.
Within static dim:
For in the homes of Bethlehem
There was mo room" for Him!
But high in heaven that blessed night
Thus did the angels sing:
"GIad tidings Of great JOY TO you,
Good will and peace we bring.
And down through all the ages,
From that land so far away,
These words OF glorious promise
Sound clear TO US to-day.
And so the dearest festival
OF all we keep on earth
Is this OF Christmas, when We mark
The Christchild's lowly birth.
In every land the self-same JOY
Is felt ON Christmas Eve.
The night when the gay are gayest,
And the sad forget to grieve.
when in city, and town, and hamlet,
Gled chimes from the beifrles ring,
And the Christmas waits under English skies
Their sweetest chorals sing
When children in many peasants nut,
And in many lOrdly hall,
Are sleeping, and dreaming they hear the voice
Of the beautiful Christ-child call.
For they firmly believe, when the midnight
He comes from His home above,
And whispers to them, and leaves gift
In token Of his dear love.
But the spirit of Christmas is always
The same, in whatever guise
He may come, whether that OF the holy child
With the light of heaven in his eyes,
Or the fur wrapped Saint of our carly dreams
The giver of endless joys,
Who drives through the night In reindeer
sledge,
Packed full 10 the brim with toys!
He fathoms the secrets Of every house,
He knows where the fir-trees stand
Waiting to bloom, and the stockings to grow
At the magical touch OF his hand.
And up through the chimney away he flies
As soon as his work 10 done;
And out of the darkness we hear him call,

which it was to proceed were simple.
Mr.. Parton chocolates the whole theme
In this brief passage: 1.-THE simplicity
Of his political system was such that he
could give q complete statement OF it
in few lines; and II was so sound that
the General Government from 1889 to
1873 has worked well so far as it has con-
formed to it, and worked i'll as often -
il has departed from it. Jefferson was
so right that every honest, patriotic
man Who has since gone to Washington
after having learned his rudiments from
Jefferson, and has had strength enough
to vote up to the height OF his convic-
tions, has made a respectable public
career. no matter how ordinary his en-
dowments; while every public man who
has not accepted this simple clue to the
labyrinth of public business has made o
career which time and events will con-
denim, though he may have had the
talents of Webster or Clay. This 10
the Jeffersonian system in brief: Let
the General Government be reduced to
foreign concerns only, and let our al.
fairs be disentangled from those OF all
other nations, except as to commerce.
which the merchants will manage the
better the more they are left free 10
manage for themselves, and our Gen.
eral Government may be reduced to .
very simple organization anda very un-
expensive one; few plain duties to be
performed by few servants.
This plan did indeed work to admira-
tion--to the admiration of all mankind.
In twelve wears of Democratic admin
istration the relatively enormous debt
was reduced from $83. 900, 600 to $45.-
600, 600, notwithstanding the Louisiana
purchase for $15. 900. 600 and the doub-
| ling of tho territory of the Nation.
And this was done not by increasing
the number or amount OF taxes. but by
wise and frugal administration, begin
ming in the removal of every needless
tax consumer in the person OF every
supernumerary officeholder. Jefferson
Topped off the excise on stills and do
nestle distilled spirits, on refined sugar,
on licenses to retailers, duties on car
riages and stamps, and with these taxes
were swept away three-fourths OF the
beef-eating officeholders. 1t will bt

Immediately into contact with the PEG

those days; no complaints of an army

"few servants transacted it honestly

It is our duty to announce to the
Democrats of this part Of the country
that the Democratic party is dead
again, that they may properly prepare
to attend the funeral and bury the
corpse. It will be no new thing under
the sun for the party which founded the
Republic, and which has done SO much
to preserve it through the storms and
tempests of twenty years, to die. 1t
has been pronounced dead and damned
at intervals since the civil war in which
the flower of its membership made pos
sible the triumph of the Union arms.
and it was never more certainly
dead" if we may believe the solemn
averments of its ancient enemies, than
when in 1875 it rose up in the might of
a miraculous resurrection and smote
down the corrupt cohorts of Grant and
the carpet-baggers as preliminary to
the fierce struggle of 1875. in. which it
swept the country under the matchless
lead of Tilden with a tornado of victor
les. 1t must have been desperately
.sdead'' again, after being robbed by
every known crime of its rightful con-
troll of the Government in 1880, when
it gave such terrible proofs Of a vigor-
Gus life that it required millions of mon
ey to buy away its majority in Indiana,
leaving the treason in New York to
compass its final defeat by meager
plurality in that decisive State.
1t is nothing new for the Democratic
party to die; its power of returning to
life is what most deeply concerns those
who are again assuring it that 1t II
"dead" again just at the time wher
the vultures are again gathering in or
ganized force at Washington to resume
the old robberies that Mr.. Randall and
Democratic Congress arrested with
the strong hand six years ago. The or

elected President by majority vote
and which owes its existence to bribery
and bayonets in thwarting the will o
the people, may continue to denounct

ooh, Kiss Me-"

A rather good story is told by a
German paper. The servant of the
newly.married wife of q Berlin
banker had remarked that every af-
tsrnoon in the absence OF Frau-,s
husband, q shabby looking indi.
vidual, ugly. ill-bred, and suspi.
cious, called at the house and re.
manned closeted with her mistress
for an hour. SuspectiDg some in
trigue, she one day listened at the
key-kole, and was borrified to hear
voice say, kiss me-" and an
other apparently replying to the
tender invitation by playfully ex-
claiming: "Oh, you Don Juan!
You good for nothingw The next
time that shabby man called the
servant managed to let the hus.
band know. A violent scene be-
tween the "happy pair" was the
consequence. The presence of the
suspicious visitor was, however,
soon and satisfactorily explained
He was q bird fancier who had

Blood Atonemenf,

The Mormon doctrine OF "blood
atonementn is one of the strangest
features OF that extraordinary re-
ligion. The law, under which 80
many murders have been commit
ted, reads thus: "rhere are sins
which men commit for which the
blood OF Christ cannot atone; but
when the mans own blood is shed
and the smoke thereof ascends as
sweet incense to heaven, then are
his slns remitted." ''If we love
our neighDors s. ourselves we
ought to bs willing to shed his
blood for salvation's sake.u If
these odious rascals were only will
ling to shed their own blood as
freely as that of those whom they
would thus admit to the privileges
of self-atonsment, it would be
we'll, for it would help to solve the
much-vexed problem OF how to get
rid of them. But they are towards
as we'll rs bullies and impostors,
and always shed the blood OF others
rather than their own.
