THE New York Eveming- Post,
strong and influential Republican pa
per, says: THE Republican leaders
should indulge in no delusion. The
people have begun to become tired OF
the Republican party, as it has been
for some years; tired of its boss rulers
and its machine methods; tired of its
civil service talk, while carrying on
the scandal of political assessments;
tired of its constant plea that an old set
of political tlicksters must be kept in
power al the North to secure freedom
of the ballot in the South. and that

In the Democratic tIatform of 1880
the old doctrine was tersely repro
claimed:
Home rule; honest money consisting
OF gold, silver and paper convertible on
demand; the strict maintenance of the
public faith, State and national, and a
tariff for revenue only.

The campaign of 1883 Is going tc
be long and hotly contested one, ex-
tending over a period of near three
months. Democrats should not be too
over confident, but on the contrary
should work as hard as though the
contest vas against them. The Re-
publicans will move heaven and earth
to carry the State this fall, if not by
fair means then by foul. 1t is life or
death for them IN 1884. Watch and
work increasingly, fellow Democrats,
and the day will be won, and the re-
suit of the Presidential campaign set

THE ravages of field mice in some
counties in Ohio appear to call for
some immediate heroic remedy, says
the Cincinnati Ne,os Journal. If the
great German scientist, Haeckel, was
correct in his view of this subject. the
true remedy is old maids, and the
farmers whose fields are ravaged by
the rodent pests should make requl-
sition on Boston for its surplus old
maids. In his argument to show how
old maids contribute to the population
of England, Haeckel argued that beet
was necessary to the population, and
red clover necessary to the raising OF
beef. But red clover could not be
fertilized without humble bees. Field
mice destroy the nests of humble bees
and the only way to preserve the bees
is to destroy the mice. Cats are nee.
essary to the destruction of field mice
old maids are the only effective means
known by which the cat supply can be
kept up to the requisite standard, and
therefore by raising cats old maids
contribute to the population Of Eng.
land. Let immediate requisition bt
made on Massachusetts, for old maids
to put an end to the ravages Of field
mice that the population Of the ravaged
counties may not fail
