The difference, between the two
great political parties now striving for
supremacy is well illustrated BY the
following quotation froessia speech de-
.livered by Zachariah Chandler to the
citizens Of Chicago upon che eve Of
his death in the fall Of 1879;
& The republican party is the only
party that ever existed, 50 far as ! have
been able to ascertain, which has not
one single solitary uhfaathful pledge
leftrnot one. The republican party
was created with one idea, and that
was to preserve our vast territories
from the blighting curse Of slavery,
and we saved them. But we did more
than that. We pledged ourselves to
save your national life; we saved il.
We pledged ourselves to save your
national honor, and we saved it. We
pledged ourselves to give you 9 home
stead laws we gave it. We pledged
ourselves to improve your rivers and
harbors and We did it. We pledged
ourselves to build you d Pacific rail.

you, tho last pledge we gave was that
the very moment we We were able We
would redeem the obligations Of this
great government il tho coin Of. ths
world and IA the 1st day Of January
1870, we fulfilled the last pledge evel
given. Notwithstanding all this they

THE letter Of acceptance Of Gen.
John A. Logan, republican nominee for

the head of the ticket. In it the
general declares himself in harmony
with the Chicago platform and the
grand old principles Of his party,
touching all the vital issues of the day

eloquently conceived and ably edited.

AS the time for holding the fail
elections draws nearer, the political
pot begins to simmer and boil with
increasing yehemence, and multitudes
OF candidates pop up and bubble and
stew and twist and are twisted around
and appear to disappear, as the mis-
cellaneous contents Of the vessel are
agitated by its own emotions. Many
are the schemes on foot to catch The
farmer vote, and many pose as reform
ers whose living come from an opposite
order Of things Figs cannot grow
upon thistles, neither can lifelong
tricksteTs forget 81 their calling calling the
short space of a campaign. Voters
who become deceived by such have
but themselves to blame, as those who
shout reform merely for the purpose
Of grinding their own little axe are
easily distinguished by their ear-marks
and have the impress Of their motives
clearly stamped upon action and
uttefance. In their gatherings and
political action farmers should remem-
Der that not everyone who cries shame
is himself above reproach.

The latest scheme Of immigration
philanthropists is to establish a colony
Of Irish in Utah. We wish the phil
anthropists every success in their
scheme, but at the same time remem-
ber that such colonies have invariably
been anything but conducive to the
public veal. Colonizing emigrants
prevents them from becoming acquaint-
cd with and appreciating our institu-
lions, and bands them together in ali
unnatural union to the disadvantage
of others.

The cholera epidemic In France,
fostered by unusually hot weather, is
rapidly increasing and has reached the
capital. Great CONSERVATION exists
among The populace, whose sole desire
is to flee from the terrible scourge, re-
gardless Of domestic ties or the public
safety. In Toulon and Marseilles the
death rate averages fifty per day,
while many of the scenes recounted in
dispatches are heartrending in the ex-
treme. Poor wretches creep to the
churches that they may expire before
the shrine, and the blood-curdling
shrieks Of their death struggles ring
out upon the ears Of the multitude like
the wall of lost spirits heralding the
way all seem doomed to follow. While
the authorities are taking all precau-
tions in their power to prevent the
spread Of the disease, it is practically
admitted that from cool weather-alone
can a respite be expected. Meanwhile.
while the fiery heavens pour down their
unbearable heat upon the numerous
cesspools and bitches Of the stricken
cities, fostering and distributing their
foul contents upon the plague-smitten
atmosphere, the epidemic mustincrease
and humanity perish. Famine, also,
has made its grim presence felt in
many localities.

Breaking a Mustang.

In an entertaining paper IN the
March ST. Nicholas entitled among
the Mustangs" Noah Brooks gives the
following graphic account of the me-
thods OF capturing and breaking the
wild horse of the prairies: "Riding at
full speed. the McXicans career over the
plains like wild men, whirling their
coiled lariats, or lassos, over their
heads as they tly. Their horses are
covered with foam, and often bleeding
from the cruel spurs with which they
are urged on. The earth trembles I'M
der the tramp of many hoofs beating
the solid ground as pursuer and pur-
sued gallop madly far and wide. Sud
denly the lariat sings through the air,
the moose opens itself and drops over
the head of terrified fugitive, the
hunters steed instantly braces itself
with its forefeet and drops on its
launches so as to make an anchorage,
rs it were, for the caught mustang.
Aud there is no escape now for the
captive.
1.-The hunter next blinds his prize,
takes turn of the lariat around its
forelegs, forces heavy bit into its
mouth, and ut once begins to break
it to the saddle. How do you suppose
the poor mustang feels when it finds it.
self saddled, bridled, and straddIed
by tyrant man? In vain it jumps
stifl-legged, plunges, and kicks. No
animal in the world has so many tricks
and antics as a newly captured wild
horse; but man its conqueror, is equal
to all of these. In few hours. the
poor beast, so lately a free and careless
creature, wild rover OF the boundlcss
plains, is reduced To abicct subJcctlon.
Its spirit is broken, and though 1t may
still retain some of its native vicious
ness. it is the slave of its owner
Henceforth it never forgets the lasso.
1t knows and breads the sight of one;
and if it escapes. there is very little
difficulty in catching it again. But its
rider. too, must never forget that the
hapless captive is only half-tamed. He
must watch it narrowly; for often aft
erward, when he least suspects such
insu mission, the steed he rides will
try to throw him, and will struggle UNI
der the saddle as if it were but newly
shared.

Good work bags are made OF colored

Something new in the way Of wall

for the pc ;ket from satin downward,
but pretty cretonne is most used, and

First cover the fan with cretonne, put
ting it on in fiat folds; then make a
pocket the exact shape, either pulled or
in folds having full edging an inch
deep at the top, sew this on the fan
and finish off the outside edge with silk
cord or ball fringe. The pocket should
be at least three inches below the top
of the fan, 50 that the background may
be seen. The handle can be ornament

much, and especially il he is anxious
about some important matter there is
no opportunity for the vessels TO be-

By far the most influential factor in

powerful in this direction anxiety
comes first. / suppose there is more

who are engaged in stock speculations
appear TO me TO be most liable to be
affected with anxiety. Not even the
certainty of disaster SO etfectually
wears away the brain as the uncertain

transactions relating to stocks. The
