increased taxation which the burden OF their
debt had brought. Rich capitalists of Charles

exempted from taxation, and, in violation of
the very words of the Constitution, were eX-

The parisIenne and Her Cigarette.

Smoking, as is well known, is a habit which
IL not confined TO men in France and other
continental countries. Many Parsiennes now
indulge in cigarettes even in their boudoirs,
and a recent writer, who is herself a smoker,
has drawn up set Of rules for the benefit OF
fashionable female votaries OF the tweed s"
Some of these regulations are rather pecu-

friend of fashionable fumeuses, never smoke

company with your husbands. Never light n

most intimate friends only are present.
Smoke after your meals at home, either in q
room ad hoe or in your boudoir. Do not hold
the cigarette between Your teeth or at the
sides OF your mouths. Such low tricks are
unworthy even Of well bred men, and you
must be mindful 10 carry the cigarette grace
fully 10 your lips, and to blow gentle wrcaths
OF ethercalized essence around you from your
mouths, or if You like, down from your

Ii is Harrison.

1t is folly to pretend that we do
not believe that the election of a
Republican Presidentisa a profound
/ ly discouraging event. 1t is an in
Opportune check to a movement
that promised the largest immedi-
ate advantage to the mass of
American people. But 10 tears
need be shed. When we order
beafsteak at a railroad restaurant
and get pork instead, we may not
like it so well, but it beats nothing.
We shall MUNICH our pork because
we cannot help ourselves, and be-
cause we are bound in honor to
give loyal support to whatever
government the American people
constitutiOnally set up for them
selves. So much we should have
expected from the opposition in
case the Democrats had been sue
cessful. The majority must rule.
But, while paying all respect to
the "powers that be-" we do not
abate one jot or title of our faith in
the efficacy Of the policy of Tariff
Reform as proper means ofimprov-
ing the condition of the country,
and for making more work, more
wages and better times. Nor do
we see that the friends Of Tariff Re
form should be utterly cast down.
If "A small majority of people have
cast their votes for a Republican
President, they have at the same
time elected another Tariff Reform
Congress, stronger in the faith than
is the present Congress. There is
no reason why the battle should
not proceed.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1888-11-10

Some who pretend to be Demo,
Gratis, were on Tuesday last ped
ding scratched tickets, and trying
to induce their friends in the Dem
ocratic party to give their votes to
the Republican candidates. This
was notably the case with the can
didates for Treasurer and Common
Pleas judges.
The mean part Of the business is
that it is reported that the influ-
ence of these traitors to their avow-
ed principles were influenced by
money. We recognize the right
'of every man TO work and vote for
the candidate of his choice, but the
man who holds himself for sale
should be marked by all honest
men, and his contaminating influ-
ence eliminated.
Let all such be remembered and
closely guarded. Their advice is
impure and their methods dishon-
est.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1888-11-10

Now let all political managers
and others who have been guilty
of any wrong deed, or of prevarica-
tion, dupIicity, or mendacity in the
interest of their party or of any
candidate, repent, and resolve
never again TO fall into temptation
like that which misled them.-Cin.

The above does not apply to any

s!ructed over the pattern of George

which almost disqualified him from
manual labor, but amidst all this
afIliction he bore it with christian
patience and fortitude. Always
fully reconciled to the will of the

One peculiar feature of his ca

continuously with the exception OF
one year, and was never out of the
State of Ohio.
Whilst young and in the prime
of life he took an active part in
education and political affairs of

Politically his influence was al
