city eneineer said 1t was almost necessity
that the reservoir be filled, as the city has
been in bad shape In regard 20 fire protection

AMERICAN ENTERPRISE

No invention of the nineteenth cen
fury has worked greater revolution in
household economy or conferred more
of a benefit on humanity than the sew
ing machine.
The first productions were crude anc
uncouth in the extreme, and it was re
served for American skill and ingenuity
to bring forth o machine of any practica
value.
In order to appreciate the great adj
vancement which has taken place it il
only necessary to compare one of the
machines built during the infancy of the
invention with one of the latest improy-
ed "Light-Running New Home"
ALI the really good points contained in
other machines have been utilized in its
construction. Many new improvements
and devices have also been added, the
result of which is machine nearly as
perfect as 1t is possible to make one.
For simplicity, durability, and ease OF
management and capacity for work, the
Light Running New Home" has no RI
val, and the happy possessor of one may
rest assured that he or she has the very
best the world affords. See advertise
ment on another page of this paper.

REPUBLICANS had some respect for Eu-
gene Wilson before he appeared in Man.
kato. They had been led to believe that
he was brainy. high-minded man who
would discuss matters with some show
Of intelligence and fairness. 1t is sad to
say they were disappointed. His dis
cussion of the tariff was about on par
with the arguments that are heard
among the hangers-on at campaign head
quarters, and he did not hesitate to get
down as low as the others in his party
who are making personal abuse of Mr..
Merriam a specially. Altogether, Mr..
Wilson's Mankato appearance did him
no good, and his speechefying qualities
on which the Democrats are basing
claims of superiority to Merriam are GER
tainly no recommendation If he puts
them to no better use than he did in this

A POSITIVE HINDRANCE.

What has the Third party ever done
for temperance? 1t has been in exist
ence nearly twenty years. Before its
birth sixteen States had enacted prohib-
itory legislation, and since that period
lS69-fifteen additional States have en-
acted stringent laws against rum, IN most
cases unaided by, and in many cases in
spite of, the Prohibition party. From
the day of it's advent till now, it has been
a positive hindrance to the cause of pro-
hibition by playing more or less directly
into the hands of the avowed rum party
of the country. But its power to exc
cute this mischief has reached high
water mark and Is now on the wane.
Prohibition in the guise of third po-
lltical party is sham. Prohibltory leg
islation owes its existence and success
to the Republican party. That party is
the tower of its defence and its hope for
the future. The sooner the advocates OF
third-partyism recognize this fact and in
good faith strike hands with the only
party of progress and reform, the sooner
and more completely will triumph come
to the cause they claim to love so well.

IT is almost certainty that the Demo-
Gratis have abandoned all hope of carry
ing New York fairly. and will enter upon
mammoth scheme to simply purchase
enough votes TO give Cleveland the cleo
toral vote of that state. A special tele-
gram says:
For week or more the Democratic and
Mugwump papers have been filled with stories
about alleged schemes on the part of the Re-
publican managers for carrying the election
by fraudulent means. This is highly amusing.
Every intelligent observer knows perfectly
well that the regular Democratic canvass, that
is the Campaign of IDEAS" that Mr.. Brice un-
dertoOk, has petered out completely This is
not only true In New York, but In other states
as well. In Connecticut every speaker of
prominence has beer Withdrawn. The stump
there is practically abandoned. and the entire
management of the state, so far as the admin
istration is concerned, is in the hands of Pat
Sheedy, the gambler, who gained such dis
tinction as the hacker of John L. Sullivan He
is now in Hartford as Barnum's representa-
tive. A few speakers are still on the field for
appearance sake, but that is all. In other
words, the leaders know that they are beaten
unless they can carry the election in an illegit-
innate way, and that is Just what they propose
to do. They are going to try to win by buying
New York. The conspiracy they have entered
into will find expression particularly here and
in other large cities Of the state, Troy, Albany,
Buffalo. Rochester; but Suffolk, Queens Rich
mond. Westchester, Putnam, Orange and Che
mung, and number of other counties have
also been selected as being favorable for ac-
tive operations. Into each of these places ex-
perienced election workers have been sent or
will be this week. These men come from Bal
timore, Chicago and various Southern states
Private dispatches from Maryland says that
for a month past there has been aquietexodus
from Baltimore of the leading members of the
gang that Germans lieutenants, Higgins and
Thomas, depend on to steal that ring-ruled
state. Their main object will be to control as
many Republican election inspectors and poll
clerks as possible. All this villainous work
will be done in the most secret manner posi-
BILE. German and Barnum think that it will be
possible to purchase enough election boards in
this way to give Cleveland majority.

does not vote to reduce the tariff is in

Or course the Globe has to lie about
the size of the Democratic procession in
New York. Wherever its correspond
ent wrote $1,000 it inserted $4,000. Good
judges in both parties say 5000 will

it rained all day and instead of en-
thusiasm it was a parade of damp and

soaked out of them.

no more than give the advice any loyal
