Grover Cleveland's letter of ac-
ceptance was given to the public
last week. The letter is only not
able for its brevity. The New
York Tribune comments upon it
thusly: cit is commonplace in the
extreme. The first point worth
noticing is the assertion that he does
not believe in the reelection of
the president This really need not
have troubled Mr.. Cleveland for ne
will never get a first election to
that office. Then follow soft and
sweet, but indefinite words for the
workingmen, with a repetition of
the promises made to the working
classes when he was elected Cover.

The s'Sage Of Nininger," Igna-
tious Donnelly, is the most nomin-
ated candidate for Congress in the
country-in fact he is the Ben. But.
Ter of the Northwest. On Tuesday
of last week a so-called farmers
convention met at Glencoe, and
Donnelly was the outcome. On
Wednesday forenoon the same dele
gates resolved themselves into a
peoples convention, and Donnelly
was endorsed. Later in the day the
Democrats met in convention, and
lonnelly was made the nominee of
that party, though not without a
strong protest from the old liners.
The Democratic convention was
mainly composed of delegates to the
two former conventions. Of. course
Donnelly harangued to all Of them,
but he came so nearly being left in
the Democratic convention that he
was all broken up when he appeared
before that body. Donnelly will be
a worse beat man than he was in
his former canvass against Major
Strait.

The Sham and the Real.
TIM FINNEGAN.

Every good thing has its host of imi.
tators; every genuine article its coun-
terfeits. Bad manners and wicked
habits have theirs also; but he who
shams the bad never boasts of it, while
they who ape the virtues of the good or
simulate the genuine never hesitate to
place the counterfeit before the public
in their most alluring tones. When
these people initiate they generally
choose pronounced type or popular
subject to copy from; and when they
claim TO be as good as ''So-and-So,"
the public may depend upon it that
Mr.. "So-and-So" and his article are
always the best of the kind. Thus the
sham is always proving the genuine
merit of the thing it copies.
A firm of enterprising gentlemen
produce and and popularize an article
of household use, such as the Royal
Baking Powder, whose convenience,
usefulness and real merit make for
himself an immense and universal
sale. A hundred imitators arise on ev-
cry hand, and as they hold their sham
articles to the public, yelp in chorus,
Buy this, it's just as good as the Roy
al, and much cheaper!' The Royal
Baking Powder is the standard the
world over, and its imitators in their
cry that theirs sis as good as Royal
are all the time emphasizing this fact.
In their laborious attempts to show by
analysis and otherwise that the 'sSnow-
ball'' brand has as much raising pow
er las the Royal;' or that the ''Resur-
rection'' powder is as wholesome .'as
Royal or that the 'Earthquake''
brand is as pure t'as the Royal" as
well as by their contortive twistings of
chemical certificates and labored ef-
forts to obtain recognition from the
Government chemists and prominent
scientists who have certified the superb
GRITTY of Royal over all others, they all
admit the ''Royal'' to be the acme of
perfection, which it is their highest am
bition to initiate. But the difference
between the real and these limitations,
which copy only its general appear
ance, is as wide as that between the
paste and the true diamond. The
shams all pay homage to the ''Roy-
al!''

Monday night the country adjacent

The devasted region was about a

Our beautiful willow groves and

Now harvest is over. politics will
soon be the general topic Of converse
tion. In national affairs the Republi-
cans have it all their own way, as
Cleveland is the weakest opponent
they have ever had to contend with,
and will hardly furnish shadow of
opposition.
The summer wanes and the cool
north wind heralds the approach of
autumn, and though our fields are
teeming with an abundant harvest
and peace reigns throughout our great
and glorious country, yet we turn and
view with sadness a declining year.
Soon the biting frost will rob the
landscapes of its beautiful green, and
tinge all nature with a golden hue,
and yet a little while and then the
harsh north wind will burst in fitful
gusts upon the fallen splendor of an.
other year, and rustic around our wea-
ry feet the fallen leaves, causing US to
pause in our busy career and look
back for moment upon the past; but
quickly we turn and consider the near
future when the beautiful white snow
will envelope the dreary landscape
and the snow fakes clothed in their
garland of purity will twirl and
twist around those spots made dear by
association.

Mr.. Blaine's libel suit against the
Indianapolis Sentinel provokes con.
siderable discussion in political cir
cles, and the opinion is general
that his prompt action in the matter
will cause the story to react in his
favor. There was disposition in
some quarters to deride it as being
done merely for effect, the trial to
be after the election. but this is ST..
fenced by the assurance that the
case must be tried in the October
term of the Indiana courts, and will
be disposed of before e|ection day.
Mr.. Blaine announces that he will
go to Indianapolis to testify in the
case. The Democrats struck a
wrong chord when they assailed
the good name Of Mr., Blaine's
family.
