This week we publish the very able
address delivered by Hon. Patrick A.
Collins as permanent chairman of the
democratic national convention. Space
would not permit us to publish it in
full before. But as the doctrine which
1t lays down is sound and enduring, it
will make good and profitable reading
for all times and all seasons.

The Democrat was well aware that
brother Chandler of the Lancaster
Herald had his heart firmly set upon
the nomination of Judge Gresham by
the Chicago convention; but we hard
ly expected that his disappointment
would induce him to give the Cleye-
land and Thurman ticket such sub
stantial support as he did last week by
publishing the platforms of the repub-
lican and democratic conventions side
by side.

THE QUESTION OF WAGES.

Price of Labor in the United States.
HOW TO INCREASE WAGES.

FfS" ~ lNSNCSoC "NSCOs
To THE EDTOR:-Among the MANY
strange things assumed by the high
protectionists, one of the strangest
is the assumption that the democratic
party, which at present designates
one half the American people, is
hostile to all American and friendly to
all foreign interests; that it desires to
legislate in favor Of the pauper labor
of Europe rather than in favor of its
own members, their wives and their
children; that for some unknown and
undiscoverabIe reason it desires the
advancement and prosperity of for
eign nations rather than the advance
ment and prosperity Of its own
| people. These assumptions are the
great arguments against the Demo
cratic party and its continuance in
| power. | shall leave them untouched

is true, but the adiudicating of all the
estray claims is in the hands of the same
secretary, and he would not be likely to
pay out dollar in this way until he was
compelled to do so, with the temptation
of Is per cent always before him for the
use Of the money.
Section 50 provides, that all fees, sal
aries, compensation, and expenses in
CURED under the provisions of this act,
shall be paid out of the round up and in
spection fund, and the estray stock fund,
respectively; and no fee, salary, compen-
sation or expense incurred under the pro-
visions of this act, shall ever under any
circumstances be paid u of any fund
other than those named in this act"
This closing section reads very safely
for the territorial treasury, but I'm afraid
1t might not prove SO. The live stock
commissioners are under no bonds, and
subject to no penalty and l cannot see any
thing to hinder them from employing
many men at $50 per month each, and
after paying out all the money in the
funds referred to, saddling the balance on
the territory. There would be no penalty
attached for doing this, and the innocent
employees would not be to blame, and
could not know whether the money was
in the funds under the control of the com
missioners TO pay them, or not. They
would surely have an equitable claim
against the territory and would be en-
titled to their pay. The commissioners
are nominated by the governor, confirmed
by the council, commissioned by the gov
ernor, and are known as THE Board of
Live Stock Commissioners of Wyoming"
1t seems to me that the territory would
be responsible for their official acts, and
compelled to pay any Indebtedness ere
ated by them in the discharge of their
duties, and ought to be in some way pro-
tected in return.
That legislation is needed to wipe out
the present obnoxious maverick law"
aud afford just and adequate protection to
the live stock interests of the territory, |
am fully convinced, and realize that this
would be in accord with the public de-
mand; hence would gladly approve a bill
looking to these ends, with such changes
and limitations as arc herein set forth. [
am, very respectfully,
[Signedl THOMAS M%ooNLIGuT,
Governor.

a Blow at Iccd Tea.

'Give me n tenderloin well done, some
Lyonnnise potatoes and some celery"
"Yes, sir"
"And, waiter, bring mo some iced tea. ~
1.-THE worst thing you could drink" re-
marked a doctor who was taking lunch
with n reporter.
"How is this7''
First, the cold wator is not good for
your stomach, and then as a preventive
from any epidemic it Is well to boil all
fluids used for drinking purposes. Tea
taken hot is more wholesome thar iced tea.
To prove this just look ut the Chinese.
Their population is enormous, but it could
never have increased TO the present num-
Der if epidemics had ravaged that empire
as they have those of the west. The
Chinese are a healthy people in spite of
their i~ndescribably filthy surroundings. 1
attribute this to their use of tea as O bev-
erage. This is the only redeeming feature
of their lives. They do not drink it iced,
but hot, and to make it they have to boil
the water. In the presence of an epidemic
of cholera, typhoid fever or dysentery the
wisest ]precaution to take is to boil all
fluids used for drinking purposes. New

The Eskimo costume consists in sum,
mer Of scalskins, and in winter of reindeer
skins, the latter being always worn in
duplicate, n set with the fur next the
body, the other with the fur outside, an
arrangement that is even better than the
famous one of Brian O'Lynn, who, &C
cording to the old song, having no breeches
to wear, got him a sheepskin TO make him
a pair, and then
With the skinny side out, and the woolly sido in,
He was fine and warm was Brian OLynn.
The pattern of their garments varies not
a whit from generation to generation, Tho

on over the head, has n large capuchin, in
Eskimo language, 'amook, " ut tho back
of the neck. The only difference between
the coats of the men and the women lies
In the latter being graced with a tail, both
fore and aft" so to speak, upon which
the feminine fondness for o"rnamentation
is INDUCED to tho full extent of the
wearer's means, so that they may be seen
adorned with numerous rows of beads and
bits of brass or copper, such things as the
works of n clock not being despised, for
instance. A very popular form Of decora-
ton consists of tablespoons, which they
break in two and arrange in various de-
vices, grouping the handles in one place
and the bowls in another.-J. Macdonald

is enlisted over the lower ribs in the re-

parable efficacy. Inaction of the liver is
accompanied by constipation, sick head.

vertigo, an unpleasant breath, yellowness

routed by the Bitters is accompanied by
them in its flight. Fever and argue, which
always involves the liver, dyspepsia, rheu.
matism, debility and kidney troubles are
all maladies to the early relief and final
r of which this standard medicine is
adapted. Don't use it by fits and starts,
but Systematically, that its full effect
may result in a perfect restoration Of

Various Methods of execution.

The following are the various methods
of executing criminals: Auto da fe, or
execution by the Spanish inquisition,
usually by burning; beating with clubs,
practiced by the South African tribes;
beheading or decapitation, known to the
Greeks, Romans and Jews, and used
formerly in England and France, and
now in China and Japan; blowing from
cannon, employed in quelling n rebellion
among the Sepoys in India; boiling,
formerly used in England in the case of
prisoners; burning, a familiar mode of
execution in the time of the early relig-
ious prosecutions; burying alive, IN
ployed among barbarous tribes and oven
in civilized countries; cruciixion, q very
ancient form of execution; decimina-
ton, employed by military trib-
unals, where every tenth man was
chosen by lot to die in cases
where q large number of soldiers mutt

Greece, Rome and Persia; exposure to
wild beasts, al ancient punishment; flaw

A young New Englandor, who went out
to Colorado q few years ago to engage in
cultivating tho soil, remarked here tho
other day that it wGs for q long time in
comprehensive to him that what was ap-
parently the most barren and sterile land
in that country became the most pro-
ductive by irrigation. ut was only by
hard study and Investigation" said he,
"that 1 ut last became satisfied as to the
process of nature by which this result was
brought about. Farms taken up in the
sage brush looked unpromising enough,
but with watering became immensely pro-
ductive. The soil was full of alkali. The
action Of the water was to decompose it
and CONVEX 1t into n fertilizer. 1t was
literally a Presto change and almost in
a night the result was effected. Such land
continues productive right along, If prop
erly cultivated, and yields in rotation
crops of oats, barley, potatoes, wheat,
grass and vegetables the Same ns else
where. 1t is for retaining these waste
lands that immense irrigating canals have
been built, n of them nearly 100 miles
long, to bring the water down from the
mountains. New York Tribune.

1t can not be too strongly impressed
upon the popular mind that the mere
prescribing Of drugs is but a small frac-
ton of what is to be expected from the
competent physician, More good is often
done by the Withholding of unnecessary
indications than by the giving Of a
bread pill or a bottle Of colored water.
In other words, it is the knowledge and
skill of the physician, expressed as an
opinion, for which the patient has to
consult the physician. The drug part of
it, expressed in a prescription, is often a
necessary, but still the least important of
the results of a medical consultation.

money value a be placed upon health

sary to give salaries to judges and fees to
physicans.-W. B. Hazard; NJ. D., in

thing bright wedged in between the bas-
network seat TO the wooden arm. / poked
it out with my knife blade and found my
prize to be n silver dollar. I had never
found any money before, and I felt so
good that when 1 got of the train 1
stepped into n cigar store and bought
four cigars for 81, instead of three
Tor n quarter, as usual. That
noon at luncheon I felt aw-
fully thirsty, and, being 81 ahead, I
ordered a bottle of claret. Later, buoyed
up by the same thought, 1 asked the boys
to take something, and the round cost me
ninety cents. When It came time to go
home the elevated trains were crowded, so
i thought I'd spend my dollar for n nan
som cab and drive home, stopping at a
theatre, where, on account of my find, l
bought tickets of a Spectator instead of
at the Office. 1 told my wife about my
luck and showed her the identical dollar,
which l had saved. She was delighted,
and insisted upon having the piece
smoothed off on one side and the place
and date of my good fortune inscribed
thereon, the carrying out of which conceit
cost me $500. Altogether, l should
think my find cost me nearly $40; so take
my advice, n if you run across any stray
dollars don't pick 'em up."-New York

Protection Against Cold.

1t Is well known hat paper is a great
protection against the cold. On the from
tier miners and woodsmen preserve large
sheets OF wrapping paper and newspapers
to put between the covering blankets
when there is an insuficienoy Of bed COW
ering in the hotels or camps. An excel
lent protection out of doors for the chest
when wearing the dress suit, with the low
cut vest exposing n portion that is gen,
orally well covered by the fashionable
high cut coat and vest, is u few folds OF
paper underneath the o%vercoat. Many
roadsters in driving put a few folds OF
paper across the chest underneath the
overcoat as well as at the back, and find
effectual protection against the cold winds
that prevail at this season. The paper is
like a wall in completely protecting the
wearer New York Times.

perhaps, preferred the new comer's cause,
