CHARITY.

A beggar died last night, my soul
Went up to God, and said:
II come uncalled: forgive it, Lord;
l died for want of bread
Then answered him the Lord of Heaven:
''SOn, how can this thing be?
Are not My saints on earth? AMI they
Had surely SuccOred thee"
"Thy saints, o Lord, the beggar said,
"Llve holy lives of prayer;
How shall they know of such rs We!
We perish unaware.
"They strive to save our wicked souls,
And fit them for the sky;
Meanwhile, not having bread to eat,
(FOrgiveD our bodies die
Then the Lord God spake out of heaven
In wrath and angry pain:
40 men, for whom My Son hath died,
My Son hath lived in vainl'

THE wage-earners of the State of
Massachusetts have been able to save
out of their earnings, and deposit in saw
ings- banks, for use on rainy days, more
money than have all the wage-earnerS in
Great Britain and Ireland together.
They have done this, too, under a pro-
tective tariff. This one fact is of more
practical value as an argument in pOlit-
ical economy than all the theories in the
world. Give it to the first revenue re-
former who wants to argue his case with
you. He can't get over it if he talks all
day, and you need to add nothing to it,
unless you say that General Harrison not
only represented this brand of protection,
but that he also represents the best mind,
manner and manhood of American life.

GENERAL SHERMAN does not appear
to be scared by the thought of dying.
Indeed he frequently jokes about death
in a way that is as reckless as it is ridic-
ulous. Not long after Sheridan's fun
eral, for instance, the subject of the ra
pidity with which the prominent officers
of the late war are passing away came
up. "Yes," Clipped in Sherman, Il shall
have to hurry up and die pretty soon, or
there will be nothing but militia to bury
me-"

THE direct tax of Great Britain bears
with equal burden upon the rich and the
poor. If a gentleman wants to shoot
game he pays SIS for a license; if a man
wants to earn his living as servant he
pays s. IS: but if the kind of service
that he wants to render is that of game
keeper he pays SO. How would these
taxes satisfy Americans?

POSTMASTER GENERAL Don DICKIN-
son thought he would meddle with the
Union soldier question, so he declared
in speech that the State of Missouri
furnished more Union soldiers than all
the New England States outside of
Massachusetts. The records of the War
Department show that Dickinson lied
just 100 per cent. The States referred
to furnished twice as many soldiers as
stated by the Postmaster General.

IT will be remembered that it was as
serted on the floor of the House of Rep
reSentatives pending the consideration
of the Mills Bill that the Democratic
majority of the Committee of Ways
and Means admitted Mr. Theodore a.
Hayemeyer, the President of the Sugar
Trust, to secret conference, while work
ing men interested in the Tariff were
denied admission to the committee
room.
The following from the New York
Press of the 4th inst, possesses interest
in this connections:
BIG SUGAR REFlNERIES SHUT DOWN.
One Thousand Men Suddenly Thrown Out of
Employment.
When the whistle blew the signal for
quitting work in the sugar refinerieS of
DE Castro Il Bonner on Kent avenue,
Williamsburg, yesterday afternoon, there

lnerS. During the morning the remain

ance with the order issued by President
Theodore IL. Hayemeyer that the work
of the two retinerieS should cease for an
indefinite period. The discharged men
stoed about in groups and discussed the
situation, and bitterly condemned the
sugGr trust, which they held responsible
for the lockout. The men said they did
not know how they were going to provide
for their families during the coming
winter.
THE retineries have shut down before"
said one of them, but never before has
there been such wholesale discharge of
employees"

THE report comes from Washington
that it is admitted even by Democrats
that the next House of Representatives
will be Republican, and that it is useless
to make any effort to prevent it. Truly,
the Democratic party is having a hard
time this year. But it's no wonder that
the people are aroused by the effort to
ruin the industries of the country If
they do not resent it in the most emphat-
ic and crushing manner it will indeed be
surprising.

THANKS to the financial policy adopt
ed by the Republican party and the pur-
chase Of bonds with a part of the sur
plus, the bonded debt of the nation can
now be expressed in nine figures, for the
first time in twenty-six years. The bond
ed debt, as shown by the Treasury state
ment published last week is 1884, $685.
162. A month ago it was $1,00S, ,137,-
562. The whole debt, less cash in the
Treasury, is now S1,141,S75,657. On
September 30, 1866, the total debt was
$2,773, ,236,173, its highest point.

THE Republican Executive Commit
tee of South Carolina has made an effort
to secure a fair vote and an honest count
in that State in November, but of course
it has been repulsed. No Republicans
will have place at any of the boards
of election at the polls. "None but
Democrats on guard" is the motto in
the State of Hamburg Butler. OF
course if there are no Republican judges
or inspectors of election, the Democrat
ic party can be made as large as may
be thought advisable, Indeed, there
is no use of going through the motions
of an election in that State at all. In
view of these facts, what is the Four
teenth Amendment good for?

CHAIRMAN TOWNSEND, of the Demo-
cratic State Committee, who has been
abundantly supplied with means tO'con-
duct the campaign in Ohio, having thou
sands of dollars for that purpose, is now

State, who never have held, and never
expect to hold, any official position, beg
ging them for any amount from 81 up
ward to add to the corruption fund
There are very few who will be deceived
by his complaint of poverty, for it is
well known that Brice, who is worth his
millions, has given Townsend carte
blanche to draw on him and the Nation
al Committee for all the money they can
use in Ohio, and that immense sums of
money are also being realized by the 10
per cent. assessment on all Federal of
ficeholders.

grades of the service to which It is apple.
able. The spirit and purpose Of the re.
form should be observed in all executive
appointments, and all laws at variance
with the object Of existing reform legisla.
tion should be repealed, to the end that
the danger to free institutions which turks
in the power Of official patronage may be
wisely and effectively avoided"
The gratitude Of the nation TO the de-
| tenders Of the union can not be measured
| by laws. The legislation of Congress
should conform to the pledges made by a
loyal people, and be so enlarged and ex-
| tended as to provide against the possibility
that any man who honorably wore the
federal uniform shall become the inmate
OF an almshOuse, or dependent upon
private charity. In the presence of an
overhowing treasury it would be a public
scandal to do less for those whose valor.
Gus service preserved the government.
We denounce the hostile spirit shown by
President Cleveland in his numerous
vetoes Of measures for pension relief, and
the action Of the democratic house of
representatives in refusing even a consid-
Grafton OF general pension legislation.
In support Of the principles herewith
enunciated we invite the cooperation of
patriotic men of all parties, and especially
Of all workingmen whose prosperity Is
seriously threatened by the free trade
policy Of the present administration.
Additional plank submitted by Mr..
Boutelle of Maine, and adopted by an
almost unanimous vote: The first con.
cern OF all good government is the virtue
and sobriety of the people and the purity
OF the home. The republican party
sympathizes with all wise and
well directed efforts for the promotion of
and morality.
