A BIv difference.

After all there does appear to be q
very great difference between imperial
ism and Republicanism. Here 10 the
Gear Of Russia, for instance, who went
to Poland some days ago to witness the
manouvros Of the large army he Is
obliged to keep In that unhappy country
in order TO prevent instruction and re-
bellion. To insure his safety soldiers
lined almost every step Of the way.
HIS train was cut into three sections,
the windows were closed and the blinds
drawn In order that no one could dis
over In which car hts Imperial Majesty
sat. During his stay in Poland fully
fty thousand soldiers were used to
preserve his sacred person nom the
possible danger OF assassination. This

Tho Love of EJovers.

In nothing has such an ad yance been
made rs In the cultivation OF f1owers
within few yesrs past. Peter Hem
oerson, the veteran forlst OF New
York, In speaking OF the remarkable
advances OF 1oriculture IN this country
during the past forty years, said no,
long ago that on New Years day 1884
only $500 worth of cut flowers were
sold In the city Of New York. Or
New Years day 1886 the amount
reached every cent of $4,000 The
love Of flowers seems to be growing day
by day among all classes OF people.

than that and wiser. The
motive is not the fruit of
success but the means OF
success. The spirit OF help
fulness-that is the motive
to prompt every one in the
store from boy to master.
There must be this unity,
not another: h e p fu ness.
Service is what the store is
for. Perfect service is what
it must aim at. And just so
long as Northumberland

merchants work for profit

All this management calls

OUR NoTIoN OF A SToRF.

Not the building = the
men and women and bows
and girls-the organization
-principles-last but not
least the merchandise.
The building comfortable,
big enough, full of light and
air, the parts adapted to
seeing things that have to be
seen to be sold, and for
touching things that have
to be touched. If it be a
beautiful building SO much
the better; noble, better yet;
but use before beauty
and dignity. The advantage
of architectural grace in a
store is to predispose you
toward the merchant and
merchandise. That is a
secondary matter. Saving
OF work, which is saving of
time, comes first: all sorts OF
work. 1t tells in the prices;
and prices they are the
test in a store. Accommo-
dations: places to sit, wait,
meet, talk, rest, eat, drink
and be merry; whatever is
done between business

One Of the handiest insti-
buttons of our generation is
the general store in the CITY.

The Democrats are working hard to
capture tho U hited States Senate which,
when captured, will give them full
possession Of every branch Of the gov
eminent. Whether they will get Ii
depends upon the elections to be held
this fall. Toe Senate Is composed OF
seventy six members. The terms OF
twenty-five OF them will expire on the
fourth of next March. OF these six.
toen will be Republicans and nine will
be Democrats. Democrats are morally
certain TO be elected from Delaware,
Florida, Maryland, Mississippi, Mis-
souri,, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and
West Virginia. These nine Senators
added 10 the twenty-five who retain
to seats will make thlrty-four, which
viii be within four Of half the men,
hers OF the Senate. The Republicans
h we, or will have, In all reasonable
probability the Senators from Maine,
Massachusetts, Minnesota, NebraskA,
Ohio, Rhode Island and Vermont,
seven In all. These with those who
hold over will give the Republicans
thtrty-three mem bers in the next CON
gress, or one less than the Democrats
will have for certainty. The
turning point OF the political
complexion OF the Senate then will
be upon the legislative elections Of
California, Connecticut, Indiana, Mich.
gan, Nevada, New Jersey, New York,
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Here
are nine States out Of which Republi-
can majority must come if that party
retains the Senate, and the Republicans
must carry six OF them to get ma
jority. The chances favor Rspubli
cans in Connecticut, Michigan, Nevada,
New York, Pennsylvania and Wiscon-
sin. The only reason for placing Mich
fgan In the list of doubtful States Is be-
cause Of the fact that the present Legis
iature, elected in 1884, has q very small
Republican majority, and that the cleo.
tion for judges In 1888 showed large op
position gains. Tit should turn out, q.
seems to be on the whole the most likely
that the Democrats will carry the Lsgis
latures OF Indiana and OF either Cali.

cans those OF the remaining doubtful
States, the next Senate will contain
forty Republicans and thirty-six Dem.

Ungrateful Democrats

1t Is difficult to see how the Demo
cratic County Committee can make It's
action of yesterday agree with its &C
tion when 1t met to receive the returns
Of the primary election for Sheriff. Al
the first meeting IL threw out the Third
ward return, not that it had polled
more than IL 100 votes, which was out
OF all proportion to the Democratic
vote Of the ward, but because 1t WAS q
day late in making the return. Yes
terday they threw out the ward en-
tirely without any other excuse than
that 1t was scandslously fraud ulent.
This is q wonderful spasm Of Demo
cratic virtue, and makes Mr.. Frank
McCloskey the Democratic candidate
for assessor OF the Second district in
stead OF Mr.. Witsil. We doubt. how.
ever, whether Mr.. Witsll will eniov
this virtuous action Of his party In q
very pleasant manner. The commit
tee would have deserved greater credit
had IL gone a little farther and have
throrH out few more wards for ex-
actiy the same kind of frauds. 1t was
afraid to go farther, however, fearful
that 1t would endanger the nomina-
tion of Mr.. Ware, though he
was returned with over three thousand
majority.
The Democratic of the Third ward
have In our opinion been very badly
treated, and they ought to hold an in.
dignasion meeting and denounce and
burn In effigy the committee that has
hisfranc hised them. The leaders OF the
party OF that ward, that la those who
do tremendous voting, were taken tc
the heart and confidence Of the off ce
holders OF the party who stand high In
social life and political honor, and thew
were paid big prices in money to dc
Just what they did do. They though,
msjorlties were what their masters
wanted and they gave them with a
vengeance We repeat that they have
been badly treated. They did their
