KE1FER and Hayes will go down to
history hand in hand as the two small
men who occupied positions OF note
Both are hypocrites. Keifer, during the
last DAYS of the session, discharged one
OF the house stenographers, who held his
position because he was friend OF Rob
eson, who made Keller speaker. Keller
could expect nothing more from Robson
and SO gave the position of stenographer
to his nephew. The worst of it is that
the work is all done and Keifer's nephew
will draw his salary during vacation
without doing stroke of work. The
i poor fellow who has worked through the
caeeian and InnEo-f A"I' ''.." ." 'iio ''o@
ton must now be satisfied to see his
successor-not performing the duties OF
| the Office, but enjoy the vacation.

SOME of the American papers IN COM
menting upon Oscar Wilde's filial act IN
giving his mother half the swag cornered
in the United States, advises him to stay
near his alma mater because If he goes
a great distance he may have to ask the
old lady to share with him that he may
live. If he ever is reduced to that strait
he can come to America. The people OF
this country are always willing and anx-
ious to be gulled by something foreign.
A new style of standing collar is the only
certificate of character or evidence OF
talent the American public require. Os-
car knows just where to come when his
purse needs replenishing. The knee
breches won't draw next time but he is
ingenious enough to invent some new
absurdity which will scoop out the peck
cts of the anxious o-be-imposed- upon
people of America.

Porter is, judging from the synopses pub,

speech called out by this contest. Every
thing seems to be stated in that wonder.
fully terse, perspicacious manner for

elegant, eloquent and logical and there
can be no question that the speech will
do much toward convincing people
hitherto skeptical, that a great wrong
was done to gallant soldier and that the

WHILE the people are grooming undar
heavy taxes the Legislature is busy max
ing appropriations. The latest steal is
appropriating $4,000 for Moses Strong to
write history of Wisconsin. The bill
has passed the senate, the republican
senate which The Sentinel thinks can do
no wrong because the democrats made
great ado about reform. Another
bill appropriating $500 to the writer of
a life of Matt Carpenter is before the
legislature, Truly there is good reason
for the people being tax ridden.

The late congress succeeded in placing
perfumery on the free list. Nowif there
is anything manufactured whose price
should be brought within reach of the
poorest 1t is perfumery. Put heavy
tax on wooden goods of all kinds and
hardware but let US have perfumery free
of cost. The people would threaten re-
bellion if perfumery continued to be tax
Ell. The astute legislators shifted insur
rection affair off and the cry of perfumery
had in it SO L-lch agony that the scented
water is put where IL pays no more tax.

IHE republican party, by its action on
the tariff bill, shows that it exists now
only for the benefit of monopolists. The
tariff bill was managed solely in their
interests, aud the whole machinery OF the
house was made to run for the same pur-
pose. 1t was almost MS brazen defiance
of right and justice as the counting in of
Hayes. But that party took the bit III
its teeth and resolved to obey the dictates
of its mopopoliSt owners.

a,r,.s,.vn n. STEPHENS died on Sun.

ALEXANDER IT. STEPHENS died on Sun
day morning. The announcement OF his
death took everyone by surprise. for al
though he never knew what good health
was, there was nothing in his condition
short while prior to mis- death, to cause
alarm.
Stephens was one of the most remark
able men of his time. He had great IN
tellectuality and industry. He was al
ways in public life and always leader.
He was honest and sincere in his convIc-
tons and saw the effect of causes though
they developed far in the future He
was born sickly and so remained through
out life although he reached the advanc-
ed age of IL, almost every year OF which
was full of activity. There is no more
remarkable instance on record OF the
minds acting vigorously and perslsteniy
DESPITE the weakness of the body.
