in His ONCE.
A dispatch to the Boston journal from
Concord, N. H., tells about the death OF
Franklin Z. Norris, a young lawyer, show
ing that he died from starvation. Norris
was, until within two years, telegraph
operator in the South. Two years ago he
was admitted to the bar in Concord. He
was extremely poor, and was upright,
temperate, and industrious, but did not
develop much aptitude for the profession.
His earnings were not enough, 1t now
turns out, to pay for ordinary table board,
but his straitened circumstances were not
suspected. Wednesday, late in the after
noon, a visitor TO the Office in which Norris
had desk found the poor fellow alone
and in convulsions. He lay on sofa with
a thin quilt over him. The only food in
the room was a small bag OF ordinary
crackers and tumbler Of water. 1t seems
that he had no other lodging-place except
the Office, and that he had no food that
day except q few crackers. Five hours
after he was discovered he died, physicians
being unable to restore his vitality. There
were many in Concord who would have
helped HIM had they known his desti-
tutiOn.

A Chance Yet.

The masses Of the Democratic party
breathe more freely to-day. The bin intro
duced in Congress TO precipitate pre-.
mature and needless discussion OF the
tariff has been defeated. The practical
statesmen Of the party, including Mr.. Til.
den, have for months seen the folly OF
wasting the time Of Congress and alarm
ing every business interest Of the country
by an agitation which could bring nothing
but disaster. wy .
Nearly every Democrat In the United
States Is In favor Of tariff reform. Mr..
Randall certainly tavors It; ard should The
Democratic party acquire power he will
lead the movement in favor OF a iudicious
modification OF existing laws and such an
adjustment OF their provisions as will pre-
vent injustice and hardship alike TO pro-
ducer and consumer. - Louisville Post.
