Spring must surely be approaching, for the
men are beginning to withdraw their heads
from the kindly protection OF their coat-col-
lars. Unless they can deyise some other
means of keeping their ears warm we shall
have in the course of few generations, ac-
cording to the laws of evolution and natural
selection, a race of monsters who will have
no neeks at all, or, worse still, will be pro-
vided with some sort Of extensible apparatus

review Of party management that has

defeat and disaster. We give an extract:
What kind Of Democracy Ia In power

tion with the Republicans, and for his
"thirty pieces OF silver betreys his fell
low Democrats by unblushingly selling
out the Democratic members and voting
for Republican president Of the coun-
cn, and then after the perAdy IL done,
unblushipgly takes his reward In open
day, In the presence OF his betrayed
party2. This delectable skid has been
permitted, since this base betrayal, to
appear and speak to Democratic con-
yention, when no ought to have been
