DEMOCRACY AND THE @. A. n

What do the old soldiers think of
the expression of Governor Cleveland's
organ, the Albany Argus, edited by
Daniel Manning, Chairman OF the
New York Democratic Committee,
1t says of the Grand Army Of the
Republic:
Its prominent membership for
years has comprised loud, brswling
men, who went to the war to escape
their characters, or because there was
money in it. The soldiers who had
been and who are the best citizens
have little or no influence in the orGer
in many places. The decorations of
the graves are made the subjects of
orders Of brutality and illtsracy.
Now and then the better influence
gets control, but the effort to keep it
taxes all their energies. The patriotic
citizens who were soldiers, and those
who were not, unite in the conviction
that the organization has survived its
usefulness and is part OF the mill.
tary spirit that ought not to be fostered
among people that would be free.
And it is not too much
to ask the sensible members OF the
Grand Army OF the Republic to start
promptly movements TO disband the
organization throughout the country,
and turn over its habit OF decorating
the graves of the dead 20 civil author
ity. Nor is 1t too much to ask the
civil authorities and citizens generally
to let il lie known that after this year
they will prefer to contribute flowers
and money for decoration and celebra-
ton purposes to governmental or pop
ular agencies, and not to any other
kind

the rough skin. Her iron.g gray hair
was neatly brushed down on the sides

about her, was full Of lustcr, brand

!, Our esteemed contemporary, the New
Orleans city ITEM, was strangely oblivious
to the provisions of the law governing the
conduct of elections in this State when it
remarked that "every man is perfectly free
to print or write his own ballot" The
| posthumous act of 1Ss2-which is alleged
| upon competent authority to have been
| doctored and radically changed after its
passage by the General Assembly
that the names of all candidates voted for
shall be printed upon ballot of uniform
size, the paper to be furnished by the
Secretary Of State. While it is true that
every voter is at liberty to have his ballot
printed 10 suit himself, he can not, under
the letter of the law, demand that written
ballot be recognized and counted; and here
in Ascension this outrageous restriction
was made still. more obnoxious by an
arbitrary rejection of printed strips pasted
over the names of candidates whom the
voter did not desire to support. The object
of elections is generally supposed to be to
ascertain and give effect to the wishes of
the people, but our Louisiana law seems to
have been framed with deliberate purpose
of obstructing and, if necessary, snbvsrting
the expression of the popular will. How
ridiculous it is to require that man shall
supply himself with a piece of paper of a
particular size and color, procured from a
particular individual, and have the names
of candidates placed upon it in particular
manner before he can have ballot that
will receive the recognition Of the law.

Bachelors Abundant.
New York letter.

The announcement that another i'm
mense apartment house is to be planned
exclusively for the convenience of bache-
lors must provoke great deal OF wonder
and Indignation among young women that
men should find celibacy SO satisfactory
as to be willing to make themselves per
manently comfortable in it. A bachelors
"flat" is little, if any, cheaper than one
for small family, and bachelors meals
taken at hotels and restaurants, cost more
money than would supply a family table
for two or three; so why, some reasoning
girls ask, should these fellows who seem
so fond of the society of ladies defer
marriage? II the bachelors were to answer
they would probably explain that marriage
means something different from what it
did very few years ago, when with as
much money as bachelor now spends
for necessities family could live COM
fortably, dress well and be in society. 1t
should be needless to remind women that
marriage is no such cheap luxury nova
days. To hire house in good neigh
borhood now costs what used to be called
comfortable living salary; dress, if the
family is in select society, costs as much
more, and so do the several entertainment
that any family of proper spirit expects
to give in the course of year. Besides
these expenses must be considered the
cost of the church pew, opera seats, a
summer jaunt, and perhaps carriage;
then there are the commonplace necessi.
ties known as food and servants. Every
marrying man should according to affec-
tionate mammas, be able to meet their ex-
penses; every bachelor with conjugal
tendencies would like to, but no one in
fifty is in condition to try. Some few are
so reckless as to wed girls rash enough to
marry for love, but they must live either
on the brides parents or in retirement
So the bachelor lives in solitude, works
hard, and by the time he is rather old tC
marry finds himself rich enough to take
wife. The bachelor who wants to mar
ry young must either inherit money, fine
a rich bride, or wed a country girl anc
avoid coming to the city. Hence the
abundance of bachelors.

The Chicago Journal, of Wednesday,
has the following in regard to the death of
George Wadsworth, son of Mr.. Sandy
Wadsworth, of Rural, this county:
about o'clock this morning George
Wadsworth stock shipper from Milan,
Illinois, was run over and instantly killed
by stock train on the Rock Island road
at Forty seventh street. How he met his
death is unknown, but it is supposed he
attempted to climb to the top of the train
and missing his footing fell between the
wheels, which ran over his body at the
waist, cutting him in two, and looping off
the left hand at the wrist Mr. Wads-
worth's stock, consisting of several cars,
was consigned to McCurdy & Co. His
companions at the time of the accident
were stock men from Victor, Iowa. The
remains were removed to Jennings
morgue, on Halsted and Forty sixth
streets, where they will be held until his
relatives are heard from. He was of
medium size, brown hair and moustache,
and blue eyes. He was not very well
known at the stock yards, and this was
his first shipment to the firm named
above"
