Whales of the Scottish Isles.

Few people would guess the etynology
of 'sca'ing" when applied to d whale,
printed as it was exactly like this in the
columns of weekly contemporary. 1t
is really "ca' ing" the Scotch for calling,
that name being given to this species of
whale from the curious bleating sound
they make. A stranded calf whale has
a very pitiful call for its dam, which the
latter answers in a harsher tone. The
name is really local to the Scottish
islands, the proper name being the de-
ductor. the whales being SO called be-
cause they roam about the sea under the
guidance of leader in the shape of an
old bull. In the early spring, just before
the breeding season, there is a very keen
competition for this Office, and more
than once the contending bulls have both
been known to die from the effects OF
the encounter.
The whale is not q very large one,
being only from sixteen to eighteen feet
long; it has occasionally been taken in
immense quantities among the shoals
and channels of the Hebrides, Orkneys,
Shetlands and Fair Isles. When a herd
makes its appearance the natives lose nc
time in collecting all the boats, guns and
harpoons which they can lay their hands
on. They then try all they can to get
seaward of the shoal, and if they succeed
endeavor, by advancing with blowing
horns, splashing oars, firing guns and
shouting, to drive the terrified cetaceans
on shore. Once they are stranded ter.
rife attack is made. end hundreds have
been slain in single battue. The scene
is one of the most picturesque it is pos
sible to witness in the north of Scotland
1t is quite another affair from the occa'
sionaf grounding of a Greenland whale
the ca'ing whale being Of an entirely
different and far more gregarious species

We ask our old grcanback friends who left Us in lSS0 to pause mo- ment and see where they stand. They left the democratic party because they thought il uniiiendiy to the people. They have hcld out until now trying to secure those reforms. Many of these reform, have been secured through the democratic par ty and that too against the protest of the republicans. The Grecnback party has dissolved and the |. l.. r. is now ahout to he formed upon the ruin>. rhi, party has formed an alliance with the T.PuhGraG party and have endorsed a .rca, part oi the republican free Whiskey and high tax platform and have placed Dr. Norwood up for governor If the old Grecnbackcr now join the L. l.. |. they must endorse the high tax and free whisI,ey idea promulgated by their leaders and must say by their votes that they favor a pension list which will almost bankrupt the gov ernncnt and last but not least. the must favor dethroning the fair wo- men of county. and dragging them down in the cess pool of oar cotrup- ted politics. rheseold greonbackcr- left the democracy because they were led to believe that they were joining . party which upheld thc old democratic ideas of their father. but now that they see they are drifting far away from the old landmarks they should take their bearing, and come back to the party that has met the wants of the people for one hun dred years and that is su true to1 the interest of the whole people.

The St. Louis Republic, in speak of the employees in the bagging fac tories at St. Louis, has thi, to say "They are barefooted, ragged ur- chins. who look with envy upon the munilicent gains Gt tue average boot black and newsboy. During t,c hot weather there is no diminution of the working hours and the poor child, who is upon the pay roll at Sl.50 per week struggles along from sun rise until sunset for the paltry sum of 2j cents day" Yet the bagging pool will extort g. 2,OOO, ,OO0 out of the Southern farmers this year which is permitted by the protective tariff - The Republicans say they cannot af- ford to give up any part of the pro tection system because it will reduce the wages of the factory employees. This combine has raised the price of bagging three cents per yard, but have not raised the wages of their operators one cent. Yet the L. l.. r. is for protective tariff.
