Democratic Magnanimity.

Hon. J. D. Lynch, who contested
the seat of General Vandever in the
Sixth Congressional District, COM
plains that the Committee on Elec-
tions gave him the law and his op-
ponent the case. 1t does look little
that way, but surely there ought to be
some way OF furnishing county
clerk who refuses to register
legal voters upon mere techni-
cality, outside OF the House of Rep
resentatives. Citizens are not to be
disfranchised because partisan Off
cial refuses to do his duty fairly and
impartially. By the way, the Demo-
Gratis in settling the case in favor OF
VaDdever, have given the lie to all
the bowling of Republican organs to
the effect that Lynch would be seated
whether he was elected or not. In
deed, it would appear to any candid
observer that the law and the evi-
dence have been stretched little
in favor of the Republican. This is
the old, magnanimous Democratic
way, rather to favor the opposition
when any matter is in doubt, and tc
direct opposition to the policy of Re-
publican politicians, who invariably
claim everything in sight and take
everything they can get by fraud o.
bulldozing, no matter what may bt

WHAT'S In A NAME?
A Good Deal, II Appears, When II
Is Not Properly Bestowea.

A name is certainly not the least
important factor in a mans career.
How much more difficult would it be
for Muggins or Finnegan to gain ac-
ceptance as poet, however great his
talent, than for Tennyson or Mil
ton! No matter how great mans
energy, talent or courage may be, an
odd or ridiculous name will be clog
to him through life, and add i'm
mensely to his difficulties in making
his way upward. Of what avail a
mans aristocratic appearance, cor
rect dress, coat of the most fashion
able cut, and satisfactory balance
at the bank, if his visiting card
condemns him to pity or to ridicule :?
What consolation it must be to lady
afflicted with a disagreeable name to
know that she may have an oppor-
tunity of changing it for a better in
way at once gratifying to her pride
and affections. This privilege Of the
ladies has been assumed by the Popes,
who change their names when they
are chosen as successors to st. Peter.
The introducer of this papal custom,
Sergius III, may we'll be excused for the
innovation, seeing that his own name
signifies hogs mouth. Melanethorne
was not above this weakness, and he
adopted the Greek form Of his proper
name, which signified 'Black Earth )"
and the learned Erasmus made SIM
liar transformation OF his Dutch name
Gerard.
In the time OF Louis XIV a distin-
guished writer who was member of
the academy, Counselor OF State
and friend of Richelieu, had the
to bear the name of Gueux
(Beggar.) Can we wonder at his
the name of his patrimonial
estate and calling himself Balzac?
Many other instances might be quot
ed of men of talent and eminence be-
ing dissatisfied with the names that
were borne by their ancestors.
Some people, in their anxiety to
compensate their children for the
vulgar or ridiculous family names
which they have inherited, couple
with them what they consider aristo-
cratic or euphonious Christian names.
Hence we have such combinations as
Gladys Beatrice Higgs, Constance Au-
relia Smith and Victor Augustus
Jones. One can sympathize with the
fact that many pleasing hours of con-
sultation and discussion are given by
the young mother and her husband
in deciding what name will sound
most mellifiuously and assort most
with the sterling and attract
i've qualities which are so perceptibly
packed up in that little cherub-their
FIRST born.
The ancients had many supersti-
lions as to the names, and even ele-
vated the study to science under the
little of Onomantia.
When the Romans raised an army
0r numbered the citizens, they were |

Both sides have their lessons to
learn. Capital sought the benefits of
cooperation, widened cooperation to
combination, and thought to use that
combination to compel labor to
it's own terms. Labor profted
by the example, organized itself
still more perfectly and then
applied the same force to the
accomplishment of its ends. Both
thes have yet to appreciate the limits
acst the public good must eventually
set to the principle of combination,
unless new servitude worse than
that of old comes upon us; unless the
country is to divided into warning clans,
the common enemies and destroyers
of those outside the favored circles.
Combinations will not be banished
from the industrial world. But its
future must be that of force regu-
lated in the public interest, and not
that of system that could end only
in one of two political and social tyr
annies which are named monarchy
and socialism, ST. Paul Pioneer
