The Injured Innocence Dodge.

Burlington Gazette.
This is the ''injure innocence" dodge,
but won't work. The country has not
forgotten that the campaign of detrac-
Blaine's friends, when he had but to
open his mouth to stop it, and that he
himself invited the retaliation by an In
diana paper which disclosed "a grinning
skeleton in his own family closet" Nor
have the people forgotten the ignoble
ending of his libel suit begun to vindi-
cate his honor wounded by that ''pois-
Oned shaft"

How a Senator Amuses Himself
Chicago Herald

Senator Wade Hampton, of South
Carolina, has new way of amusing
himself during dull debate in the SEN
ate, such as the Blair educational bill
presents. He makes bOOmerangs out of
stiff paper, and sticking them under his
left thumb nail shoots them several feet
away toward the faces of senators sitting
near him, and when their outgoing
force is spent they return to the sender
as faithfully as the leather end of flip
jack. The senator fired a boomerang
six or eight times the other day, sending
it ten feet away and each time caught it
on the rebound

Western Republicans would feel

the especial benefit of none but the
trust robbers that take shelter be-
hind such tariff, which enables them
to limit production, reduce employment,
cut down wages, and charge consumers
the full amount of the bOunties that
such excessive protection affords them.

DOSIOn Herald.
Another point to be considered is,
how the withdrawal of Mr.. Blaine is to
affect Mr.. Cleveland's prospects of the
Democratic nomination. There is very
little doubt that Mr.. Cleveland's most
intelligent supporters felt that it would
be easier to defeat Mr.. Blaine than any
one else; but the denomination of Mr..
Cleveland is so much peoples matter
IN the Democratic party that it is out of
side seriously to affect it. The event
may, nevertheless, stimulate the op-
position to him to added effort.
