ton. The day for that sort of thing is past.
The time when the Democracy could declare
itselfin the national convention in favor of
a tariff for revenue only ana at the same
time preach high tariff doctrine to pampered
manufacturers is gone forever. There should
be no equivocation, no com promise, no
lodging. The holder the Democracy
are in urging a revision of the tariff and in
ssting upon it, the more likely are they to
succeed at the next general election. 1t is
with political parties as it is with individ-
uals. The parties which have positive con-
victions which they live up to, and, if need
be, are ready to die for, are the parties which
become invincible in the United States, and
which remain invincible until it becomes
evident that they have outiived their useful
ness and have no claim to popular considera-
ton, beyond such sentimental favor as is &C.
corded to them on account of their services
in the past. Then they are nothing more
than tombstones commemorating what is

by its labor for the public good, in the pres

THERE is no room in the Democratic party
for anyone but free traders disguised for the

formers The Charleston News and Courier,
which now assumes the place of chief organ
to the Southern controllers, talks very plain
ly to those Democrats who believe in the doc
trine of protection. The words OF this infiu-
entail newspaper will have special interest to
such men as Senator VOORHEES,, and even to
Mr., Mcdonald who has abandoned his free
trade opinions, and is now for "lncdental
protection" The News and Courier says:
For oar part we do not see that the Dem
oeratic party is strengthened by the presence
OF Protectionists In its ranks at this time.
Such men as Randall of Pennsylvania,
weaken the party, and are a disintegrating

THE Chicago Tribune says of the hanging

THE Chicago Tribune says of the hanging
of ODonnell:
Every person outside the Invincible
brotberhoods which cry out for vengeance
and deal in dynamite and murder will hope
that ODonnells execution may be the last
act in the fearful drama which began with
the assassination of Cavendish and Burke in
Phoenix Park OF all those who have taken
parts in that drama Carey's name is the
most loathsome. 1t was he who melted and
planned the original murder; it was he who
gave standing to the conspiracy; it was he
who encouraged the younger men to proceed
with the bloody work; it was he who fur
nished the weapons, whetted the knives, and
gave the signal for the murderous blows.
And he did all this apparently for the pur-
pose OF betraying his accompices and gain
ing the reward of an informer. There is
none so base as 10 waste sympathy upon
Carey's taking off, however much people
may differ as to the means by which it was
accom- plished or as to the degree of glory
which should be awarded to O'Donnell.
With the death of the latter the case is closed
and passes into history"

ONE would naturally suppose that II any
woman had right to be cynical and doubt
full of the promises of man that woman would
be Susan b. Anthony. So many times and for so
many years she has labored to convince one and
another and another of The righteousness of her
cause: so many assurances of friendly feeling
and promises of assistance she has had only to
see her expected allies go over to the enemy
when the time came for action. Looking back,
Miss Anthony can see long procession of false
aud perfidious men, but yet her faith in the
ruling sax does not appear to be shattered. In
recent Interview she says she feels sure of Mr..
Carlisle's support In the present Congress- A
year ago she told him that II elected Speaker, as
she thought he would be, she should depend
upon his assistance, and he agreed that she
should have it. With his help she feels conf
dent of getting favorable report on the six
teenth amendment. Alas, poor Susan! She is
undoubtedly doomed to disappointment again;
but in the light of past events she may he de-
pended upon to come up cheerily next year and
the next, with her faith temporarily pinned to
other statesmen, who will prove unreliable at
the critical moment. She is justified in saying
from the fullness of her experience that all men
are liars. but with her liberal nature she excuses
the faults Of the many, other women do those
of the individual they have respectively chosen
husbands.

A Rev. SToDDARD is lecturing at Lockport. N.
Y, on the Morgan murder mystery. It is al
legged that Morgan was murdered" by indig-
nant Masons fifty-seven years ago, and some
came TO the conclusion that he drowned.
Now the Rev. Stoddard comes forward with the
identical stone that was tied to Morgan's body
when he was drowned by the wicked Mason's.
1t is O solid3-block of stone niue inches
square at the base and twelve inches high,
weighing sixty-fve pounds, with iron staple
secured at the top. Cut in the stone
near the staple was the number So.
Mr.. stoddard proved the authenticity of this
tragical reiic by saying that among many who
went out in boats and dragged and raked the
bottom of the Niagara soon after Morgans dis
appearance was Peter Tower. of the town
of Wilson, Niagara county, who died
about four years ago. Mr. Tower did not bring
up the body of Morgan, but he did bring up this
stone and the speaker was satisfied that this
stone must have been fastened to the body of
Morgan. What makes the stone so valuable is
the fact that when Masons dispose of recalci-
trant members they Invariably prepare
just such stone - solid - with staple
and number complete. The number
''thirty-five" cut in the stone that held down
Mr.. Morgan indicated that he was the thirty
fifth victim thus disposed of by the local lodge
up to that time OF course, the number is
greatly increased now, and instead of labor
ously cutting the figures in the "solid" stone
plain bronze tags are attached. bearing the
number of the victim, the number of the lodge
to which he belonged and the date of drowning.
Efforts have been made to put END to this
practice of the r. and A. NJ, but all have proved
futile, and this custom will doubtless be kept up
until the country is gradually depopulated.
