The Philadelphia Times makes some
little parade of the presence in the
Chicago Convention. holding transitory
positions in connection with the republi
can presidential campaign, of lawyers a
part Of all whose business is from rail
road corporations. There are very few
able lawyers of whom ii is not true that
q part of all his business comes from rail
roads, for one thing, and, for apother. no
men have less influence on the conduct
of campaign than the presiding
officers of the convention which makes
the nominations. All sensible men
know this. Even the Times is not ig-
norant of the fact.
But who has the democratic party
placed in permanent control of its cam
paign?
w. D. Barnum, Chairman of its Ma.
tioual committee, is an officer in six
railroads
Calvin S. Brice, Chairman Of the Dem
ocratc Executive committee, Is an officer
in nine railroads, two of them foreign
corporations.
William L. Scott, the personal repre-
sentative CT tie party candidate on this
committee, is an officer in thirteen rail-
roads, three foreign corporations and
one Of these a foreign government rail
road.
Senator Gorham who stands for the
protection wing of the party, sits on two
boards of railroad directors.
John S. Barbour, who represents the
South in this Democracy council of war;
is Vice President of the Virginia Mid

Mr.. Sewall, who goes on to fiji up and

Death to House Flies.

l have discovered a good way to de-
stroy house flies. 1t has the advant-
age of cheapness and also preventing
dead flies from falling into everything,
as they do when poison is used. Mix
together equal parts, by measure, of
melted rosin and castor oil. Stir until
thoroughly mixed which will take
only minute. While yet a little
warm, spread thin and evenly on any
strong paper that is not porous. We
use foolscap, writing papers, catalogue
covers, show bills, etc. Spread with
a case knife or any straight-edged in
strument, slightly warmed. Leave a
narrow border to handle with. Lay
the paper on tables, shelves or any
spare places where flies are numerous.
They viii soon cover the papers. As
soon as they alight they will stick fast
and soon pull themselves down. When
the papers are covered two or three
flies deep put in stove and replace with
another one. Be sure to use no water
The oil prevents the rosin from harden
ing, and has the popularity of not eva
porating. The oil leaves no odor when
cool Ten cents will buy enough to
kill all the flies in a hotel. Pjcaylnc

now free from the charge of bigotry,
both democrats and republicans were
tainted more or less with Knownothing-
ism, and democrats more so. The in
suits offered to Catholics and lrishmen
in the city Of Boston were shameful,
but they paled before the Catholic
and anti-Irish outrages perpetrated in
Baltimore, Louisville and New Orleans.
In 1856, when the Native-American
party put national ticket in nominal
ton, Maine cast but three per cent of
her popular vote for the Knownouhing
seven per cent of her popular vote for
them, and Maryland, which has been
ever anti-republican, gave to the Know
nothing nominees its entire electoral
vote. What is the spirit that has actual
ed Harp6rs Weekly. the New York Times,
Puck and the Er6Htng Post. if it is not
the Knownothing spirit? And this
spirit, by which the genius of the Ameri-
can system has been exercised out of the
Republican body, now dominates the
Cleveland democracy and sorely torments
its victims.
/ am not araigning the democratic
party for its sins of commission or omis-
sion, nor do l hold it responsible for
the acts or words of individuals affiliated
with it. There are, as it is to be ex-
pected, narrow minded men in both
parties; but the charge Of bigotry
against either political organization is
not tcnable, and Irish Democratic poll
ticians who in the past gave currency to
the fiction that one half the American
people were the sworn foes Of lrishmen
and Catholics were engaged in very
small work, of which, it il to be hoped
those politicians are now ashamed.
With the progress of education, and in
the light of the knowledge of the facts
here presented, the Irish vote, once
solid, is now in n state of solution.
Irish Americans of to-day are practical
and inquiring. They are not to be
amused by fairy tales; they ask what is
the living issue of the day. and the man
or the party that tries to brighten them
with the ghost of Knownothingism in
suits their intelligence and will in turn
receive their contempt The issue of
to-day is the tariff. 1t is the American
system versus the British Colonial sys-
TEN. The Irish instinctively are Pro
tectionists. Nineteen twentieths Of
them are working men, and looking at
the matter as q question of wages. they
very naturally object to free trade.
Knowing this. the democratic politicians,
from Grover Cleveland down, are at
pains to make the working people be-
lieve that free trade is beside the issue
but Mr.. Henry George and every honest
Tree trader in the land say it is a step in
that direction; ard the English press,
which are concerned about our national
contest only in so far as the result may
affect English interests, hail Cleveland S
policy with cheers, and hope and pray
for his success. The fact that the Lion
and the Unicorn lave taken the stump
for Cleveland and Thurman is not cal
culated to hurt Harrison and Morton in
the estimation of the Irish, who will,
promise, give good account of them
selves in the pending presidential cleo
ton.

The National and department COM

the political G. A. r. badge in which
pictures of the candidates for the posi-
ton of President and Vice President on
the Democratic and Republican tickets

able one. 1t is probably the homliest Of
all political badges. No Grand Army
man Of either political party will buy it;
if he should, he would be dealt with ac-
cordingly. Few men can be found to
purchase an emblem they are not en-
titled to wear. But some one has to
wear these British brass things, and

When building new poultry house,
or repairing an old one, it IS best to
rails the stills at least one foot above the
surrounding ground. The soil under
the building should be dug out to
depth of one foot, and the excavation
filed with small stones, packed care
fully, so as not to leave ready made
runs for rats. o. this foundation a
layer of fine broken stones is placed and
packed solid with a heavy rammer,
and upon this coat of cement or con-
crete is spread from sill to sill. This
makes a perfectly dry and warm floor,
easily cleaned and kept clean. An inch
or two of sand on top will pro-
vide a perpetual dust bath for the
fowls, as well as supplying them
with the gravel they need. If
the expense of cementlng cannot be af-
forded, foot of sand on top of the
stone will answer admirably, but it
must be renewed often enough to fur
nish clean supply. If the dropping
boards under the perche5 are kept we'll
covered with sand also, so that the
moisture from the droppings cannot soil
them, and proper ventilation is given,
the house will always be free from IN
pleasant and unhealthy odors. A board
floor is never so healthy. and is difficult
to be kept clean. Wool absorbs
moisture readily and if the floor is not
high enough from the ground, and open
at the sides to give free circulation of
air, the under side will be wet all the
time and will soon begin to rot. If the
floor is high enough from the ground to
obviate this difficulty, it is too cold in
winter, and that is just as bad

The COntagiOn of YaMning.

There has been an amusing discussion
lately in Paris on the subject of kissing
at theatres. 1t is interesting to note
that an attempt made in the last CEN
fury to put stop to the practice proved
a disastrous failure. The edict had
hardly gone forth, under the auspices of
the chief of police, when a first per-
formance came off. A gentleman who
was addicted VIGOROUSLY to hostile
demonstrations was 'sandwiched, " by
way of precaution, between two agents
of law, and soon the curtain arose.
Every eye was directed towards the
inveterate delinquent; but, to the
general surprise, he sat still without
making a sign. Ere long. however, he
began to yawn, and soon the two police
men took to yawning in sympathy.
Their neighbors unconsciously fol-
lowed suit, the contagion spread, and
in a short time pit, boxes and galleries
were yawning as they never yawned
before. Even the actors, with their
gaze fixed on the public could not resist
the example set them; and the unlucky
author had the misfortune Of hearing
his most telling "hits" launched forth
amid perfect chorus of yawns.
The embargo against kissing was
promptly removed, it having been found
by experience that a return to the old
system was infinitely preferable to the
new one inaugurated by the irrepressible
Chevalier de la Molier, who made a
perfect speciality of his demonstrations
against new plays at the Come lie Fran
caisc and had particularly distinguished
himself by the uproar he created at the
first appearance of Voltaire's Tan
crede. list. James Gazette.
