As the editor of the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette well says, the
election of Carlisle to the Speakership
puts the Solid South at the head of
the Democratic procession. All OF
the officers of the House except the
Sergeant at arms and Postmaster are
from the Southern States. Free trade
and race prejudice are therefore
made the Democratic platform.

The following little episode is
reported to have occurred at Harris
burg shortly after the veto message
had been so ANONYMOUSLY disposed
Of.
A rumor having obtained some
credence that the Attorney General
would be pressed to issue writ
enjoining the State Treasurer from
paying the expenses of the session,
delegation OF Representatives
hunted up the Attorney General and
one of them acting as spokesmen,
said:
"Mr. Cassidy, il is announced that you
are about to enjoin the State Treasurer from
giving us our pay to prevent our aiJournlng
is il true?'
NO" said the Attorney General, firmly.
"IfyOu will only get out of this town and
relieve its atmosphere from the pollution OF
your presence why in Gods name 60
If one of the Representatives
had, in reply to this brutal insolence
applied a number ten boot to the
Attorney Generals seat of honor
the interview would have been
properly and deservedly rounded

Deliberate Assault on American In

dustrIeS.
A. X Mcclure. in Philadelphia Tiwes.
It's a revolution in Democratic
policy, bold departure from all
Democratic teachings and traditions
of the last century-a defiant decla
ration OF war against even inciden-
tai protection to the dissatisfied
industries which are to day the
pride, the force, and the wealth OF
the Republic. For years the Dem
ocratic party has battled against
prohibitory protection, but never
until now has it avowed its purpose
to discard even discrimination in ia.
vor of domestic industry.
The new Democratic deliveranct
will startle the country North and
South. The suicidal declaration fol
"a tariff for revenue only" in 1886
defeated the Democrats in Indiana
Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York
Connecticut, and nearly lost New
Jersey and Delaware, but the party
disavowed it in all these States, anC
the country had enough faith III
General Hancock to prevent thc
positive disintergration of the party
But now the Democratic proclama
ton of aggressive hostility to any
and every shade of protection
to American industry comes from I
House assuming to speak for The
party Just on the threshold ofa Pres
idential contest, and the proclama
ton comes from the body that il
charged by the country with tn
preliminary legislation about the
subject.

I'm prisoned for Life.

Would II not be wise to have court in
perpetual session to keep an oversight of
persons who are imprisoned for long terms
or for lite? Many cases occur in which peo-
pie are sentenced wrongfuly, or when pub
lie indignation runs high, and review Of
SUCH cases would do no harm, and might
save UGH suffering. Any of us has been
kept AT home by bad weather, sickness, or
forsome domestic reason, will recall how
irksome was the confinement. Think, then
what imprisonment means, and that for
life. In the Jail OF Br oklyn, n. Y, there
are six women undergoing sentence for life.
Two of them have already served sixteen
years. They all declare their innocence OF
the crimes imputed to them. Two were un.
dergoing punishment for destroying chill
dren who should never have been born: an.
other had in the opinion OF the court, COM
mitted arson. More than one OF these wo.
man had been sentenced by Recorder
Haokett, who died insane, and was noted
for his iorocious sentences. He was un.
doubteoly out OF his mind for several years
before he died, and scores of prisoners sui.
Tered nom the diseased malice of this mad
judge. IL should be remembered that these
people in time come to have no friends,
Relatives move away or die, and many
years do not elepse before they are entirely
alone in the world. Some of tho various
charitable societies, composed mainly ofwo-
men, should move in this matter, and t.y
10 learn the story of every person sentenced
to Imprisonment for life, or for any long
period,-IDemorest's.

Dr. Mulhall, OF the st, Louis Medical col.
lego, adds his opinion to that of many
others that cigarette smoking Is injurious,
because the smoker inhales tho smoke. He
Is satisfied that smoke In the process of in.
halation comes In contact with four times
the extent OF mucous membrane that Il
does In ordinary smoking, and hence the
absorption Of nicotine Is excessive. The
doctor remarks that about all cigarettes
manufactured In this country are cheap
and vile.
