AT that moment the man came around the
corner smiling with delight, and both hands
ready for shaking, and as he halted, said:

You bet you did" shouted the four in
chorus
And want you to drink with me-"
You bet we will! Hurrah for you!"
And they drank his beer and said they had
rather seen all the rest of the ticket defeated
than to have him get left.

Isn't it about time for Connecticut to re-
peal the law requiring majority of all the
votes cast to elect a governor of that statea
Generally there are at least three candi-
dates, no one of whom gets majority
Several who have received pluralities have
been defeated in the legislature, and this is
just what will happen soon. The demo-
cratic candidate in the recent election re-
ceived about 800 plurality, but he did not
get majority over the combined republi-
can, prohibition and labor candidates, con-
sequently the election will be thrown in the
legislature, which, being republican, will
elect the republican candidate. This would
appear to be defeat of the peoples will.

politicians Of the north lot up on the south I.
The south is capable of taking care of her
self. She has done it in very notable
way since the carpet-bag politicians were
turned out. Her progress since that time
has been wonderful. Unless the republican
organs and politicians are more anxious TO
help the republican party than they are TO
help tine south and the country, they will
recognize these facts by ceasing to NEEDLE

very exciting. 'posum is an animal who is

Mail Service in Florida.

The mails for st. Augustine, Fla, have
been for good while and are still very irreg-
ular. The MORNING NEWS has repeatedly
called attention of the postoffice authorities
to the complaints of the people of that city,
but without effect. The postoffice author
tiles do not seem to think it necessary to
exert themselves to give st. Augustine a
better mail service Indeed, it is not too
much to say that the mail servics in all
parts of Florida is about as bad as it can
possibly be. The reason other towns are
not making complaints is that they are
tired of doing SO. Their appeals, COM
plants and protests do not meet with salts
factory responses.
The st. Augustine Press of Nov. II con-
tains the following statement: "Last Mon
day night four days mail arrived in this
city, and there has been no regularity since.
About every other night no northern mail
is received. We don't know who is at fault,
but we do know that it is exasperating. 1t
Is said-we know not with what truth
that the mail arrives in Palatka daily, and
that the trouble is with the Office there. If
SO, the matter should be investigated"
1t must indeed be exasperating to thriv-
ing, progressive city like st. Augustine to
receive no mail for three days, and then to
have the accumulations dumped into her
postoffice on the fourth day There is an
excuse, of course, for DELAYS in the mails
when there are accidents or washouts on
the mail routes, but there are no such rea-
sons for the delays and irregularities in
Florida of which complaint is made. The
postal authorities ought to brace up and
make au effort to give Florida better mail
service

1888 appears to be good year for expo

was a success as to exhibits, attendance and
finances, and the tobacco exposition at
Danville, the national exposition at

position at Columbus are now booming.
Besides, quite number of state fairs have

this indicate that the south is about to be

If, however, she wants pair of shoes, which for
mery cost $3.50 she has only to pay $3.50 $780, ac-

has been taken off hides from which the leather in

If she pays so cents for iron pot pan she gets

Table, compiled from Tenth Census, showing
value of various manufactured products. per cent.
of labor cost rate of duty existing and proposed;

The present high tariff, then, is in the in
terest of the manufacturer, and the President
of the Republican League clubs spoke truly
when he besought the manufacturers to con-
tribute to the campaign fund, because the
fight for high taxes was solely for their benefit.
The laboring man was not mentioned in the
circular, and the sole interest the Republicans
have in him is to get his vote. The Demo
cratic party is the party of the people, and
naturally every workingman and mechanic
belongs to it. The Republican party is the
party of mouopolists, trusts, pools and huge
corporations that are banded together to fleece
the people. Blaine, the embodiment of Re-
publicanism, defends trusts as ''privnte af
fairs with which the people have nothing to
do, and he bewails the Presidents policy of
Retaliation against Canada, because huge
railroad corporations will thereby lose the
freight OH goods shipped to and from Canada
across our territory; and the Republican party
officials are assuring the millionaires in pro-
tected industries that they are fighting their
battle.
The Democratic party proposes to legisate
for the best interest for the whole people; to
do exact justice to the manufacturer, the la
borer, mechanic and the professional man.
1t proposes to legislste so that no class can
levy tribute upon the other, to prohibit as far
as possible combinations for oppression.

Alleged Converts.

The current lists of political converts need
watching. "Mr. Sexton of Bridgeport, who
headed a list recently paraded in Republican
papers, says that he is Cleveland man, and
thinks that many others in the list will also
vote the Democratic ticket" says the New
Haven Neics Ind.)
A considerable number of these alleged
converts to Republicanism, were contradicted,
some weeks ago, in the New York press, over
their own signatures. The fact is, the Repub-
iiean party, in its desperation, has been raking
the country over as with fnetooth comb, to
get up these lists, and in its anxiety to swell the
number has not been particular about adher-
ing to thetruth. as these contradictions prove.
Many of them, it was noted, were confined to
Pennsylvania, and were worked up Sor the
purpose.
The long list of eminent and influential
Republicans which we publish to-day, Ia
another column. from the New Jersey Inder,
are bona fde changes to Cleveland, revenue
reform aud low taxes, who haye announced
the change over their own signatures or in
an oral manner. The list viii be read with
interest.
