Times.
Guiteau's last words were: I'm
going TO the Lordy. = The Republican
managers last words will be: 1--WE are
going TO the devil
The battery which supplies Mr..
Blaine's magnetism is fed by Mr.. Steve
Elkins The metal he uses is the prod
uct of our Western mines
1t was positively cruel to take
poor Mr.. Hayes out of the obscurity OF
a living death to make a side-show OF
him. Manchester (N. H. Union.
Mr.. Roscoe Conkling's silence is
SO profound that you can hear the glad
some chirp of Rutherford Hayes clear
across the continent Chicago Herald.
r. B. Hayes should do the square
thing by Blaine in return for all this
taffy the latter is giving him. He might
contribute few hens for the next bar
becue. = Utica Observer.
IS 1--WE must always have the ladies
on our side,'' says the artful Blaine.
They are certainly quite essential in a
great many things, including secret
marriages. &c Chicago Times.
DIR. w. E. Forrest withdraws as

The New York Tribune has an
editorial on some of the charges against
Mr.. Blaine, and heads it "a Carnival of
Lying Can't The fact is that, SO far
as Mr.. Blaine's friends are concerned,
it is carnival of lying cant.-Balti-
more Day.
There is no channel in which the
rings know Mr.. Blaine could be more
useful to them than the channel of the
White House. From the helm of the
ship of state is good perch from which
to cast anchors to windward. --NaShUstLe
(1e:sn.) american.
-" IT'S worser to have writ and
lied than never to have writ at all, - is

The States that the Democrats

the Southern States, including Delaware

Mr.. Fishers plumed partner is
appealing to the business interests, yet.
if he had little less brass and a little
more shame, he ought to know that

gagged in legitimate business who would
employ him for dav in a position OF
trust.-C Chicago Times.
One of the citizens of Buffalo en-
gagged in the last contemplate attempt
to SANDER Governor Cleveland has made
humiliating confession that he was
drunk when he lent his aid to the in
famous conspiracy. The other SLAM
derer, the Rev. Mr.. Ball, can hardly
offer so good an excuse for his men,
dacity.-M. Y. World.
The laborers all over the country
who are ''protected'' out of employ
ment can scarcely be in a mood to be
misled by the cry that employment and
high wages are only to be secured by a
high tariff. If high tariff is to give
constant employment and good wages
to laborers. why have they not such
employment and wages NOW? We
have the tariff. Employers are pro-
tected. What, then, is the matter?
