~ Our esteemed neighbor of the Signal
unfurled his ensanguined garment last week
and tapped it in the breeze with his old time
prestage, all because the good people of De-
fance had selected the Hon. W. D. Hill to be
President of the day at the unveiling Of the
soldiers monument at that place. Sensible
people see nothing out of place in Mr.. Hill
acting in such capacity. True, he is Demo
crat, but is there not one Democratic soldier
to every Republican soldier? We think so.
And as for Mr.. Hill being any less defender
of this union Of ours than our esteemed
brother himself, we don't believe it. He
may differ in opinions, and during the war
may have differed with the powers that be in
the mode of defending and preserving the
union; he may have done this, and still be
none the less a friend of the union. This
government is just as dear to Democrats, who
framed it, as it is to our Republican friends,
and the sooner such nonsense as that indulg
ed in by our neighbor last week is laid away
as relic of the past and war times, the bet
ter it will speak for the enlightenment of the
people and the soundness of his own mind.
Come, neighbor, live in the present, not in
the past.

There are now published in the United

Gals. There are about 1900 periodicals of all
sorts, which enjoy circulation of more than
5000 copies each. There are 700 religious
and UNCONVENTIONAL newspapers published in
the United States. Three newspapers are
devoted to the silkworm, six to the honey
bee, and not less than thirty-two to poultry

Typical Republicanism.

Rhode Island has for years been pocket
borough of the Republican party-a typical
Republican state. With total vote far be-
low that of our own little congressional dis
trict, and equal to but about two-ffths of
that of Hamilton county, itspoorer classes dis
frsnchised by the property qualification for
voters, surfeit of rich manufacturers and
aristocrats, and an inordinate amount of
bigotry and self conceit, the state belongs
naturally to Republicanism, and is as helpless
in the hands of the Republican bosses as if
its people were mere political serfs. A mans
true character is best displayed at home in
the family circle, and if the Republican party
is the champion Of political integrity and
civil service reform it would be most patent
in this typical Republican state. The Provi-
dence Journal, Republican organ, denoun-
ces the election of Charles R. Brayton as
chief constable of the state by the General
bosses as ga fragrant violation of
all sense of fitness and decency" in the face
of frauds equaled only by the election of
Boss Tweed to the New York senate by a "de- /
graded constituency" Among the charges
against the official in question
by that paper is that while postmaster at Pro-
vidence, he was defaulter for $3O, 900, after
ward made up by the unfortunate victims on
his bond. What beautiful picture Of Re-
publican purity in Republicanism's own
home.

sy When the Republicans stole the Sem
ate they knew they had partisan Supreme
Court that would declare all their outrageous
and indecent acts legal. No doubt they had
an understanding to that effect with the Re-
publican members of the Court. But de-
cision by the Supreme Court is of no force
SO far as the members of Congress are con-
cerned, and if the Democrats do as they
should, hold their elections in the old dis
tricts, the Republicans will rue their act of
after the next Congress assem-
bles, when they will find themselves without
in that body.-KeBtOp Dem.

,B We desire to call the farmers attention
to the fact that the wealthy men of the State
are the ones who pay the least proportion OF
taxes according to the value of property.
Their property is invested in town real es-
tate, stocks, and government bonds, and
about the time the tax collectors make their
rounds they invest their surplus cash in
greenbacks. But few business blocks, fine
residences, and town lots are down at any
thing near their value; stocks and bonds are
in the same catalogue, while Government
bonds and greenbacks are entirely free OF
taxation. On all the above except the last
they derive an average interest Of at least six
and on some as high as ten per cent. while
the farmer by hard toll, and the sweat of his
brow, is seldom able TO realize more than
three per cent on his investment in farm
Now comes Governor Foraker and asks that
farms shall be appraised higher, asserting
that they we're appraised too low six years
ago. How do farmers like this p FFen'oas'
Messenger.

az The editor of the Defiance Erpress is
not SO ignorant as he would have people be-
lieve. He certainly knows better when he
charges that the Democrats voted against
the admission of Dakota upon purely parti-
san grounds. The facts are patent to every
reading mind that Dakota has never asked to
be admitted into the Union. The South half
of the State, against the wishes of the North
half, asked to be admitted, but the territory
as whole did not ask to come into the
Union. A set Of hungry Republicans set up a
State government in half of the State, and a
Senator recognized them, but a
Democratic House was the watchdog, and
very properly set down upon the scheme.
Had thesehungry- for-ofice Republicans been
successful the people would have been COM
PEELED to pay hundreds of thousands of dol
lars for the mere privilege of finding place
for these fellows. No doubt when Dakota
has the requisite number of inhabitants and
asks to be admitted into the Union she will
not be debarred, no matter what may be the
political complexion of Congress.

eB One of our contemporaries says: SIN
looking over our exchanges we are frequent
ly struck with what seems to us senseless
custom that every day is growing and becom-
ing more prevalent. A member of a family
dies, and forthwith it is considered the pro-
per thing to extend "Card of thanks" to all
who have in any way shown sympathy with
the sorrowing friends. A church social is
well patroniz d and "Card of Thanks"
must be published. Such things are fulsome,
and in exceeding bad taste. If you desire to
thank friends for kindness of these and
many other sorts call upon them and do 80 in
person, unless it is case of very extraordi-
nary character"

s:g- The following sentence, in lettel

~ The following sentence, in a letter
from workman, published in an Eastern
exchange, is pregnant with truth:
ssMy advice to all wage earners is, to make
themselves SO thoroughly proficient in their
respective positions that their employers
can't afford to dispense with their services"
In point of fact thorough proficient and
capable workingman is always in demand.
Employers are looking for such men all the
time, and when they find one they will not
lose him if they can help it. First-class men
are never out of employment except from
their own choice. Their work has been and
always will be at o premium.
