8gMr. John Boyle O'Reilly says
Cleveland has not a single quality large
enough to fit him for the Presidency of
the United States"
ggT The Republican party favors pro-
lection not because it benefits the few,
but because it is an assistant and a bless
ing to the many-not because it enables
the capitalist to use his money in luc-
rative way so far as he personally con-
cerned, but because in SO doing he nee
essarily opens new ways and provides
new opportunities for workingmen to
earn fair wages and to secure fair
share of prosperity, contentment and
happiness.

Large fortunes are rare in Switzer-
land, and the salaries of public func-
tionaries very modest. The President
of the Confederation receives $4,000 a
year, few judges more than 81 $50, and
there is probably no bank manager in
the country who gets more than twice
that amount. A man with an income
of s., 500 is considered very we'll off in

Few things in the progress of the
civilized world are more astonishing
then the increased consumption of
wool. This is best shown in the
statistical account of the production,
which in the year 1880 was 100000, 900
pounds, while in 1871 it was nearly g.
600, 100000 pounds. Owing to the
great progress made in improving the
breeds of sheep the quality is also
much better than formerly.

A farmer in Ohio produced 116
bushels of corn from an acre last
season. He plowed the ground about
s inches deep and did not harrow at
all before planting. His theory is
that when the ground is left rough
the harrow will destroy the weeds
better. His reason for deep burrows is
that the hills are down below the
reach of the harrow, which allows of
narrowing without disturbing the
corn.

Irish Nation: The triumph of the

| as much slight and insult to the old
leaders of the party as to the Irish,
the workingmen and the anti-monopo-
lists who opposed his nomination so
strenuouously. The intellect and ex-
perience of the party were contemp-
tuously pushed aside to make room
for dull and plodding country law
yer, who is the merest tool of an
illiberal and corrupt ring, having no
affinity with the able men whom the
party loved to honor in the past, and
whose dark and devious methods are
disgraceful parody on the Statement
ship which once ruled the councils OF
the Democracy. Irishmen of spi rit
have no choice. Cleveland must be
defeated, and the only way to do that
efectually is by voting for James G
Blaine for president. Let us organize

SUAKD, March 27.-The British forces
began an advance on Tamincb at ) o'clock
this morning. The firing opened at 7:3O
and was brisk upon both sides. The rebels
were in larger numbers than yesterday.
The English cavalry and mounted infant
ry led and drove the rebels from the rocks
and dispersed them among the hills.
There were no British casualties.
The loss of rebels is unknown. The reb-
els fired on the Britiah troops from the
rocks upon the left, and the cavalry dis
lodged them and advanced to within a
hundred yards Of amanieb, and as soon
as Graham came up with the infantry and
guns, the shells were thrown among the
flying Arabs ond exploded close TO them.
On reaching Tamanieb's men and horses
they made straight for the wells and
Stacked their thirst, and after a brief halt
the cavalry moved out to the right and
left of the village in pursuit ofthe re-
treating foe. The village forthwith was
burned to the ground, General Graham
will explore the region in the neighbor-
hood of Tamanieb, and then will return
with his whole force to Suakim. The
campaign is at an end.

trial in the county court on the second

too well known to need further mention.
The dispositions of Franklin Whitman and
Samuel Backus, of San Francisco, have
arrived, They read like fiction. Also
the letters of Cordelia Whitman, or Cor
della Mapledoran, or Cordelia Fillmore.
These letters are photographed and make
very interesting reading. This case will
open with the matter of the divorce
granted Mrs Whitman from Franklin
Whitman about n and one-half years
ago The case will be hotly contested,
the best legal talent in the state being en-
ployed on each side. The trial will be
very interesting. This is the most promi-
nent divorce case that has ever been tried
in Colorado.

In a memorial from the legislative as
sembly of Utah, presented to the senate
to-day, the memorial states they were
elected by the people of that territory
under the provisions of the Edmunds bill,
and they have made provision for filling
the registration and e~lecting offices of the
territory as authorized by that law, but
their action has been rendered void by the
refusal of the governor to sign their bill,
and in consequence of that refusal one of
the objects of the Edmunds bill has been
frustrated and the interests of the people
of Utah jeopardized. They also state that
other bills, needful to the progress of the
territory, have been nulliGed by the gov
ernor. Measures have been introduced
in congress looking to the extreme and, as
they consider, harsh and unjust action
toward the people of the territory, and
these measures have been prompted by
untruthful statement made to congress
and by misunderstanding the facts and
political situation of the territory.
