What Democracy Means.

The Chicago Times, which is good
democratic authority thus defines
democracy:
Democracy is word Of various and
contradictory meanings. In South Car
olina it means civil service reform; In
Ohio, Indiana and divers other states
it means the spoils to the victors; In
Pennsylvania it means protection, in
Iowa free trade, and in s'indry other
commonwealths it has no meaning at all
upon the subject; in the east it means
honest finance, and in the west it means
cheap money; in the south it means
prohibition, and in the north it means
free whisky; in the white house it
means economy in public expenditures;
in congress it means extravaganza and
jobbery; in theory it means pure ad-
ministration; in practice it means Pan
Electric scandals and river and harbol
jobs. To say that man is democrat
or that he belongs" TO the democratic
party does not afford the slightest clew
to his opinions on the tariff, the cur
rency, the civil service, prohibition oi
any other question of politics OF inter
est to the present generation. Or, as
Mr.. Dana would say, ut is not neces
sary for man to believe anything
about any living issue to entitle him tf
good standing as democrat. All that
is necessary is that he should vote the
ticket prepared by his bosses and asl
no impertinent questions.

The Myth of the FIRST Tear rot.

The myth Of ths first teapot is that the
island Of Mauvi, now sunk deep In the sea
near Formosa, was once wealthy AMI
prosperous country, whore the richest and
finest porcelain in the world was made.
The tops of tho high rocks Of this island are
visible now at the low water, and divers 60

teapots, shared like small barrels, with
short, narrow necks and Of greenish white
color. They used to te worth $500
apiece when cracked AMI fssnred and hav
ing shells sticking to them. These were the
birth marks by which connoisseurs identi-
fled them as belonging to the very Oldest
family Of teapots in the world
The legend is that the king Of Mauvi was
q piou, man; that he duly crooked his
knees before his brazen and wooden gods,
and showed devoted reference to them in
all his affairs. He was warne,i in a dream
that when two Of their chief idols grew red
then would tho island DO suddenly de.
stroyed because OF the great wickelness OF
its people. Some wags OF his court con-
ceiycd the idea OF playing a trick upon his
ana .esty, and went in tho night and stained
both images vivid carmine When the
king o served that his dream had come
true he instantly put to sea AMI laid his
cours, for China And none to soon, for
the island, with its rascals who dared to
paint things red, sank out Of sight with all
its treasures OF lovely porcelain n-the earth's

BISHOP SAMUEL FALLOwS, of the Re-
formed Episcopal church, who was in
timately acquainted with the late
George G.. naddock, who was murdered
in Sioux City, Iowa, two weeks ago,
while endeavoring to pursuade the law
breakers to obey the law, preached a
sermon last Sunday on the tragedy in
which he took the ground that the
murder Of iIaddock by the saloon inter
ests would result about as the murder
of Lovejoy, by the slave fiends, did.
This is the same grounds taken by the
Sunday Telegraph previous to the bish-
ops sermon. 1t may safely be stated
that the saloon element which in the
most cowardly manner assassinated a
reputable citizen, whose only ofiense
was that he tried to make them obey a
constitutional provision, will regret
that act more than any OF the acts OF
their lawless lives. When men in this
country cannot engage in honest, open.
manly effort to prevent the lawless
classes from violating law without be-
ing shot down, it is high time that the
public understood that fact; and it is
also high time that the public took
such steps as will make it no safer for
a man to leap into a cracking flame
than it is for him to violate the law

land created intense enthusiasm when
he assaled Mornonism in his most Wig
orous style. The republican party did a
great many good things while it was in
power; did things which, if they had
been left undone would have resulted
in the overthrow Of the republic, but it
deserves censure for not having taken
hold of Mormondum and shaken the
life ont of it long years ago, when its
life was not as many pronged and per-
sistent rs it is to-day. OF course every
true American knows that Mormonism
will be suppressed sooner or later, and
there are millions of Americans who
are wondering why il has been SO long
tolerated. This great strong govern
ment ought TO have taken the monster
by the throat and choked the life out
it when it was an infant, instead of per-
mitting it TO grow to the stature Of the
hideous. monsteroHs old viper we find
il to-day. This administration is en-
titled TO credit for having made some
WllOleSOInc ulONto dSdlIiot Ahoi ihioihobis
but it's moves have not been wholesome
enough. The government has not said
what it can say any day, TO the Nor
mons: Obey the laws of the land or
take the consequences and if they re-
fuse to obey, blow them out OF ex-
istence. That is the medicine that
must be given sometime, and what
sense is there in withholding it and per-
mitting the patient to grow steadily
worse. If the republican party comes
into power, and it very likely will, its
first great work should be that cf sweep
ing Mormonism out of existence, and If
il dallies with that question, hesitates,
trembles and holds back, then let it go
out of power at the next election. Let
us sincerely hope that the agitation
started 10y the q. A. II. at the last Ma
tional Encampment Will continue TO
grow until the great monster evil has
been thoroughly oyerthrown and bur
ied-securely, deeply buried.

1t begins to look as though Mormon
ism would come to heartily despise the
Grand Army OF tho Republic for having
decided to hold its National encamp-
ment at San Francisco. We base this
belief on the fact that while the dele
gates were on their way to San Fran
cisco, hundreds of them spent season
at Salt Lake City, and during the en-
campment the question of Mormonism
was frequently brought up, and in
every instance roumlly condemned, and

it. Gen. Logan, in his speech at Oak.

THE COLOR or THE SEA.
Different Theories Advanced to Account
for Its Many Chsagea

The changes In tho color OF the sea have
attracted the attention Of seafariRg men
from tue earliest times. Numerous theories
were offered In explation Of these changes,
some ascribing them to the varying color of
the sea bottom, some to tho difference In
depth, others to the presence OF certain
coloring substances, others again TO tho
chemical composition Of the water. Most OF
these su ygestions contained an element OF
truth, although no one of them, taken by
itself, su ficed to account for alteration in
color which had often been obser sei to oc-
cur in the courss Of few hours sail, and
within distance measuring less than u
ships length
Of late years, as the reader a aware,
numerous scientific expeditions have been
fitted out and dispatched by the govern
ments Of England, Norway and America for
the express purpose Of exploring the secrets
of the deep. Among the problems which
have now for the first time received salts
factory solution, new light has also been
thrown upon the conditions which affect the
color Of the sea water in every part OF tho
which we were indebted to the unaided ex-
ertions Of earlier travellers One Of the
most remarkable and most widely distrib-
utei contrasts Of color II that which II
known to exist between the intensely blue
seas situated between the tropics anl tbs
green seas Of higher latitudeA 1t appears,
as the result of recent observations, and
more especially Of series OF experiments
made on board the German frigate Gazclle,
that there is an intimate relation between
the colors OF seawater and the proportion or
salt hold In solution by the latter.
On comparing the specific gravity OF
green water with that Of blue water IL was
found that the latter Is always heavier
than the former, and, therefore, contains
more salt, tho two differently colored
waters being supposed to have the same
temperature. In other words, the greater
or lesser intensity Of the blue color Of sea
water may be taken as direct index Of its
saltness and Of its specific gravity, 30 that
when we observe the color OF tho water sue
cessively change from deep blue to BLUSH
green and dark green we may conclude
that tho water has become ut the same tim3
| less salt and less heavy. This result agrees
with the experience Of navigators In every
part of the ocean, for as the vessel proceeds
from the dense and salt waters of the tropi-
cnl regions towards ths lighter and fresher
waters of higher latituies and OF ths polar
regions the color of the sea is seen to change
from an intense blue to a greenish blue and
green tint There are, however, numerous
exceptions Green seas are met with be-
tween the tropics and blue seas are en-
countered In the temperate region, and even
within the Arctic circle, but these excep
tions, far from contradictiny, only tend q
confirm the above rule. for AL
