The public plundcrers, otherwise the
partisans in power, will control the So
called Republican convention in Chicago.
The federal o~fice-holders intend to run
that, and Mr.. Blaine and his friends will
have to be content with a side show.

CONSTITUTIONAL CENTRALIZA-
TION.

During the present session of Congress,
proposed appointments to the Federal Con
s]titution have been quito prolific, and the
most of these come from the Republican
side of the two law-making houses. The
magma eharta of our country is hardly u
century Old, yet it has already been most
seriously patched up, and many of the
patches certainly do not add much i'm
provement to the original document. If
the patching continue, in the future, in
ratio to the past, it'll not be long ere this
great instrument of state will be much
like the Biblical garment of the Jewish
Joseph coat of many colors. Such a
result is to be greatly deprecated. Our
organic law ought to be wise, settled and
certain. If it be not so, our statutory
enactments based thereon can never be
clear, satisfactory or effective. All tam
pering and tcmporizing with organic law
is a source of menace, and will, if not
stopped, be reduced to practice and under
mine the very foundations of the Repub-
lie. Any one conversant with the history
u llt hhbltlbU VI Alt ibuIlttillI anu
Fifteenth amendments should deplore
any further radical alterations and
innovations. Secretary Seward never
believed that the Fourteenth amend
ment was lawfully passed, nor in
deed the Fifteenth, although indorscd by
Hon. Hamilton Fish, his successor. These
amendments were bulldozed through the
legislatures of the several states, and
there is no guarantee that other amend
Ihents may not be incorporated by the same
means. A Republican from Iowa, Rep
rescntatiyc Cold, has prepared II joint
resolution which proposes to violate
Article Fifth of the Federal Constitution
and pave the way to unconditional cen
tralization. This new and undemocratic
measure should at once be ignored by the
dominant party in the House of Repre-
sentatives. 1t declares hat the presi-
dent, with the advice and consent of the
Senate, shall appoint a commission of
seventy-six persons, two from each state
and of different parties, to consider and

There is doctor in this town who is

He eats about one square meal day,
and tries to make himself believe he gets
two more, but he don't, for breakfast
and supper are merely sham. Not
contented with starving himself and
family, he has Just hit on a new scheme
to starve his own horse aud yet make
the poor animal think il is his own
fault that he don't get latter.
In the back part Of the manager,
where the corn is put, he has set a
square piece OF looking-glass, which he
keeps highly polished. He puts in
about four ears of corn and of cours,
the poor horse sees the reflection and
braces himself for good square meal,
fondly imagining that he is getting
eight. As he eats the corn of the cobs
the fictitious ears also disappear, and
eight cobs appear to his astonished
eyes. He then wonders how he car
have gotten away with eight ears and
yet feel no more weight in his stomach

feed, is wearing the poor animal away

change ere long, he will 60 around

Iwish was doctor. / would like
to study my own case. Doctors ought
to be sickly folks anyhow, SO they could
learn from their own experience what
is the matter and how to give relief.
When rheumatism gets in my bones l
want to know what to do for il on scien-
tific principles. II change of atmos-
phere relieves me why won't something

He would want to live always il he
never had pain.
There was old Parr who lived 10 be
LAG years old, and was married twice
after he was 100, and he took on
powerfully about dying when be was
taken suddenly with pneumonia. He
was no account. He was lazy and he
never concerned himself about anybody
or anything, but Just lived along like o
mud turtle. Some men live longer in
one year than old Parr did in hun
dred. l reckon that three score years
and ten are about right. That long
suits most Of folks very well. notice
that most all old people are willing to
die. They get reconciled to II in due
time, and I'm glad it is SO, for it is
wonderful change, leap in the dark
and it takes abundant faith in Provi-
dence TO prepare one for it.
/ used to think when was boy that
il was awful and terrible, and couldn't
bear TO think of it, and one day heard
an old man get up in church and say he
had just rs leave to die as to live, and
he could shake of life as easily as he
could shake of his coat. He had on Q
great big old fashioned cloak with
sleeves to it, and he just gave it little

THE GORILLA At HOME.


Domestic Habits and Fighsing Mesh.

Il is said by the natives that the gor.
lila makes sleeping place like o ham.
mock by connecting the branches OF q
Sheltered and thickly-leaved part of q
tree by means of the long, tough,
slender stems of parasitic plants, and
lining it with the dried broad fronds OF
fern, or with long grass. This ham.
mock-llke abode may be seen at differ.
ent heights from ten to forty
feet from the ground, but there
is never more than one such
he Il in tree. They avoid the abodes
OF men but are most commonly seen in
the months Of September, October and
November, after the negroes have
gathered in their outlying crops and
nave returned from the "bush" to their
valleys. So observed, they are usually
in pairs, ur If more, the addition con.
ssts of few young ones of different
ages and apparently of one family. The
gorilla is not gregarious. The parents
may be seen sitting ON branch restin..
their backs against the tree trunk
munching fruit. while the young goril-
las are at play, leaping and swinging
from branch to branch with boots
or harsh cries of boisterous mirth.
In passing from one tree to another
the gorilla is said to walk semi-erect
with the aid of his club, but with !.
waddling and awkward gait when he
Is without his club he has been seen to
walk Us man, with his hands ciasped
behind his head, instinctively balancing

negro does not make the attack, but re.
rvcs his fire in self-defense.
The enmity of the gorilla to the
whole negro race, male and female, is
uaIformly attested. Thus when the
,oing men of the Gaboon tribe make
excursions into the forests in search of
ivory the enemy they most dread to
meet is the gorilla. II they have come

Theoretically sealed and had been well

which require the deliberative wis.

centrated intelligence Of the whole
live stock industry needs to be made
effective by organic action. The
power and influence Of American
stock men are ample for their own
protection II, through organization.
these can be given force and direction.
The practical need of organization has
just been powerfully illustrated In the
inception of the animal industry bill

before Congress IL was substantially
the creation of the national conven.
ton of stock men held in Chicago last

We do not say that the original bilr

displayed. Such IA condition of thing.
is not only reproach to the live stock
interest of the United States, but is u
menace to It's prosperity and security.
