bit of velvetl To the friendless orphan
girl It was a bitter misfortune and her
whole nature rebelled against the injus-

Poor Hopel The past ten years had
been to her continual struggle for exist
ence In this time she had seen her
mother laid in the grave and herself left
alone in the world, with only her own
labor between starvation and life.
She was slender, graceful girl, whose
resOlute, cheerful spirit shone through
her clear, brown eyes; but tonight the
brown eyes were dim with unshed tears,
and as she sat by the window and gazed
out into the drilling twilight she gave
herself up 10 the memory of the past.
Far back in that past she was a child
again, surrounded by all that loving
parents could provide, and as she dream
ed of these days the tears rolled down
the pale cheeks and the sensitive mouth
quivered with emotion.
A few years had brought great
changes. The precious loving mother

RELIGION ANDPoLITICs oNEFAITH,

What a magnificent President of
the United States Mr.. Randall, the
great Pennsylvania Democrat, would
make. 1t is question in our mind
whether he or Mr.. Blaine would give
the country the more thoroughly
american Administrations Catholic
Union and Times.
Yes, but what would the Demo
Gratis do about the Know Nothing
charge.
The Irish American papers were
fierce at Blaine because of an article
in Kennebec journal in 1854 days.
What would they do with Sam.
Randall who was member of the
Know Nothing order? Is the crime
atoned only when one of the dark
lantern chaps became a Democrat.
Is it the unforgiven sin to have be-
come Republican II the crime is
in having been a Know Nothing,
why is it not remembered by Irish
Americans against Democrats, as
well as against Republicans 1t
would be queer to have Sam. and
Jim. the nominees, and the Demo
Gratis using the old charge against
Blaine.
But the Irish Catholic voters will
take Cleveland, even if he did keep
religious freedom from their breth
rem in New York. Religion never
stands in the way fPolitics.-P hiia.

THE DIFFERENCE.

George Washington said, In one of
his messages to Congress: 1.-The safety
and the interest of the people require
that they should promote such manu-
features as tender to render them in.
dependent of others for essentials.
particularly for military supplles.n
Alexander Hamilton, in report to
Congress, said: That the independence
and security of country appear to be
materially connected with the pros
perity Of manufacturers.
Benjamin. Franklin said F." 1t
seems the interest of all our farmers
aud owners of land to encourage your
manufacturers in preference to foreign
ones"
Henry Clay said in the United
States Senate: "That the home mar
ket is first in order and paramount in
importance"
Andrew Jackson said: {" We should
become little more Americanized,
and instead of feeding the paupers and
laborers of England feed our own.n
Abraham Lincoln said: liam in
system and high protective tariff"
Daniel Webster said: That the
protection of American as against
foreign labor ought never to be sur
rendered or compromised in any de-
gree.n y
Ulysses S. Grant said that the great
objert of American statesmen should
be +" Encouragement to home pro-
ducts, employment to labor at living
wages, and development of home re-
sources"
The Republican party Endorses what
these great statesmen and wsrriors
have said. The Democratic antagon-
ICES these sentiments: " Choose We
whom We will serve"

OUR NEXT GOVERNOR.

The nominee OF the Republican
patty tor Governor should be a man
of force and backbone a man of
convictions and action man who
Can give reason for the faith that
is 10 him and "rustler from the
date of his nomination until the polls
are closed on election day; a man
acquainted with the people and
whom the people can trust; man
who is identified with all that is best
in our civilization and who is proud
of West Virginia. Such man can be
had; none other should be chosen.
1t will not do to think that there can
be any straddling or trimming by
our candidate on the questions Of
the day. He must be perpendicular
in his convictions and fearless in ex-
pressing them. He cannot speak
for tariff in one section and wink at
free trade in another; he cannot he
for high license in Parkersburg, low
license in Wheeling and prohibition
in the back counties. He must be
either for or against on these and
other leading questions. To sue.
ceed--and, after all, good politics
looks to permanent SUGGESTIVE
nominee of the Republican Yarty
should not only be "a temperance man
but one who is in favor Of the
amendment and not afraid to say
SO; he should also be an earnest
aud enthusiastic advocate of protec.

sons at this time for these opinions
further than to say that, il we are
to judge OF events and politics 10 adj
vance by the views OF the great ma.
jorlty Of the leading Republicans Of
the State, only OH this line is sue.
cess assured. AS TO the action Of
the Republican party on the prObi
bition question We do not see that
the party is called upon to endorse
it or any OF the pending amendments
further than to pledge itself TO the
necessary legislation to carry out
any changes in the Constitution
that may be made by the people.
We do not think that the probibi.
ticn cause would be helped by any
party endorsing it, whether it be
Democratic of Republican. The
question is mp in non. partisan way,
with every body free to vote for or
against as he may see tit. This is
the right way to settle snch ques
ton. Tie Republican party, how.
ever, cannot hope to win with
whisky candidate for Governor.
The party in this State isn't built
that way and success wonld not be
had with such leader. These
views are based on a careful study
of the field aud are simply expires
sions as to what is good Republican
policy for 1858 in West Virginia.
