and oppression with no fear as to
results. l. the war it is waging
the democratic party feels and Knows
that its position is correct. 1t
feels and knows that it is lighting for the
welfare of the people, and for the safety
and perpetuity of free government. Its
cause being just, it is thrice armed; and
when the shock of battle comes, its enemy
will ind it invincible. The extreme at
titude the republicans have taken, ignor-
ing the counsel Of several of its past
leaders, gives the democrats An advant-
age that they had not looked for or
dreamed of. Nobody supposed they
would assert that they would make whisky
free, rather than to reduce the cost of
clothing and other necesssries of life.
No, such madness no one was prepared
for and the second sober thought will
open the eyes of tens of thousands of
republicans TO the viciousness of the
principle involved Republicans who
yet appreciate morality in politics may
not vote the democratic ticket, but they
'0iH vote the prohibition ket. Moth
ing is more certain than that, because Of
this outrage on the moral sense of the
country, the republicans have defeated
themselves beyond hope of recovery. 1t
passes all understanding that the repub-
lican party should have committed itself
to policy so repUgnant to the intelJi-
gence of the people, but it has deliberate-
ly chosen to do so and it must take the
consequences.

confidence in the virtue of an iron grssp

THE SPONGE TRADE.
The Immense Stores Along the Coast Of tue
Mediterranean.

The Immense Stores Along the Coast Of tmc
Mediterranean.
Of the NeapolItan coast and in other
parts of the Mediterranean, where there
elastic articles are found, diving is the
approved method of getting sponges. In
the clear, white waters of the Bahamas.
however, says the New York Sun, cranes
are used. Cranes are long poles, varying
in length from twenty to thirty eight
feet, with curved prOngs at one end, and
are employed to aetach sponge from the
rock to which it clings and TO convey it to
the boat in which are the fishermen. So
clear is the water that, with the aid of a
water glass-a pail or box with glass
bottom-fshermen can easily distinguish
sponges from other forms of marine
plant life at distance of fifty or sixty or
more feet. When first taken from their
fsstnesses sponges appear and feel like
pieces of raw, soft liver, being slippery,
elastic, ugly and repulsive. In color they
range from dirty purple to dull choco-
late.
Having been brought TO the deck of the
6sherman's schooner the spoages are
washed, rubbed and dried. They are
then strung on strands, dozen 10
strand, and are washed down with buck
cts of sea water three times a day until
the schooner reaches one of its crawls.
Crawls are large, half submerged
stockades of saplipgs, generally sapodillas
and unfamiliar sub-tTopical growths,
bound together by MANILA and palmetto
fibre. The catch is deposited in these
and kept under water until the vessel
makes its final round and draws its de-
deposits preparatory to taking them to
Nassau.
Sponges are extraordinary plentiful in
this part of TIE globe. II may surprise
any body who has just paid dollar or so
for bath sponge at q Broadway drug
store to learn that he could duplicate II
in Nassau for cents, or buy strand of
similar sponges, fresh from a coral reef,
for 60 cents. This is one reason why SO
many are taken home BY sagacious tour

A sponge famine would be moIe disas

hurricaae- the trade amounts 10 over
$250,OO0 annually, and is more impoItInt

5000, 900 sponges are annually dragged
