An Explosion Exploded.

These are times when sensations go or like
hot cakes. 1t was recently the pleasure of
Miss Fanny Gould, daughter of Newark,
N. j., merchant, to request friend to pur-
chase and send her burglar alarm, which
was done. This simple contrivance is only
useful by reason of an explosion which oc-
ours "when the burglar is q burgling."
Miss Gould or some one else caused it to ex-
hibit its merit in this direction. Where.
upon the wires were instantly laden
with the thrilling tale that not Miss
Fanny, but Miss Nellie Could the daughter,
not of the Newark merchant, but of the New
York millionaire, had received not burglar
alarm which she had ordered, but an internal
machine intended for her destruction. This
story gets twenty-four hours the start of the
correction, and all Europe is now sympathiz-
ing as deeply with the United States over the
common use made of dynamite in this coun-
try for the blowing up of rich mems daugh-
ters as our people do with Great Britain over
the awful havoc which would follow If any Of

Their Own Little Row.

Tho democratic party is fighting out the
presidential campaign year in advance.
Tho battle was prematurcly commenced
last fall and still goes merrily on, with
hourly increasing interest. There are nearly
dozen different candidates for the speaker
ship of the house, and tho adherents of each
are making war upon all others. The hori-
zon Of contention is gradually narrowing,
however, to the factions headed respectively
by Mr. Carlisle and Mr., Randall. The CO.
horts arc forming and being moblized for the
encounter. Headquarters for three Of the con-
testants arc established in Washington,
but the little booms arc growing so
beautifully less, that one Of them will soon
| be discontinued and a dual battle will be
fought. The contest will be between FREQ
trade and protection, as represented by the
statesmen named above. Before tho snow
flies again there will bo music meath the
dome of the temple on tho hill. Bad names
arc being called on all sides. The state of
Kentucky, yclept Watterson for short, was
imprudent enough to cry "go to the devil"
Now comes the state of Pennsylvania, yclept
Singerly, shouting You're another!" All
along the line these cries are taken up and
the rattle of journalistic musketry is grow
ing fiercer and more deadly. Soon the heavy
guns will boom. 1t is extensively interesting
to tho republicans, and somewhat discourag,
ing to democrats.
Tho republican party is fairly and squarcly
in favor of the protection of American indus
tries. The people have no desire to place
themselves upon par with the mendican
laborers and serfs of Europe, and they viii
not do so. They will support the party who's
ayowed principles are in behalf of the inter
ests of home industries. If the democrats
party were solidly in favor Of free trade, the.
