THE funniest thing about the story that
man out in Nebraska has seen human soul
by the aid of a microscope, is that it should
have been telegraphed over the country
Utica Herald.
THE bandanna of Allen G. Thurman will
wave over the Democratic hosts in Ohio this
year from the stump. The old Roman has
been badly treated, but he is not resentful,
and he will lift up his voice to secure an
other victory for the party he loves and has
served so well.-Philadelphia Herald.
1t is not true that Mr.. Cleveland intends to
visit Ohio this fall. A man who has fled to
the woods and buried himself in wilderness
three days journey from a railroad station to
escape the opportunities of office beggars. is
not likely to venture into the State of Ohio,
of all places in the world.-Chicago Times.
THIS re-echoing of the Ohio platform by
Pennsylvania and Iowa, in the face of the
storm of ridicule is suggestive of Josh Bill
lings story of how one hog after another
will dip his nose into trough full of hot
slop and go away squealing. None has sense
enough to take a warning from his pre-
decessor's fate.-Omaha Herald.
THE Philadelphia Ledger says: Inter
views with number of leading business men
with reference to the revival OF trade would
indicate that the day of falling prices, scant
purchases and diminished stocks has passed :
that the inevitable reaction has set in, and
that it is the hope and belief that the i'm
provement at present noted will be continu-
Gus, unless confidence be shaken by unwise
tariff legislation "
JOSEPH O'CoNNoR, of Buffalo, is mentioned
by the Buffalo Courier as its candidate for
Secretary of State. Mr. O'Connor was until
recently editor of that paper, and, as it was
generally understood at the time, was re-
moved to make room for some one more in
accord with President Cleveland. Under
such circumstances the proposition of the
Courier looks like gentle prod at the ad-
ministration. Why is Mr.. O'Connor accept
| able for the State Department and not in the
Courier office-Albany On. " Times,
IN Iowa prohibition seems to be the lead
ing issue in the contest between the two
great parties The Republicans have pledged
themselves to maintain the prohibition law,
| while the Democrats are committed to its
abrogation and the adoption of high license
law. Iowa is strongly Republican State,
and up to a recent time Democratic victory
| in that State was entirely out of the question.
While it can hardly be expected that the
Democrats, even with the aid of large mum.
| Der of former Republicans, will be able to
carry the State, the struggle attracts much
| interest, and the Republicans apparently are
not as confident as one might naturally ex
pect to find them in one of their strongholds.
Buffalo Courier.
THE Elizabeth. n. j., Herald says: at is
| pretty generally believed in New York that
| Tilden and Cleveland are out 1t is well
known that Mr.. TiIden opposed the appoint
ment of Postmaster Pearson at the start and
only acquiesced when it was understood to
be reward for Liberal Republican OF mug
wump aid given to Mr.. Cleveland. Since
however, the policy of the President ha:
taken shape, and it is understood that he
will remove no more Republicans on purely
| political grounds, the sage of Greystone has
concluded to let the administration severely
alone. Governor Albeit is said to be in the
same boat, holding to the old Democratic
doctrine that a Democratic administration
should be differed by Democrats"
