The Washington Post, democratic
paper, refers to the act of Napoleon l., who
crowned himself emperor In the cathedral
at Notre Dame, in the presence Of Pope
Plus, and then says:
A similar scene will occur in the city Of
st. Louis on the Sth day Of June in this
year of grace 1888. MIR. Grover Cleveland
has summoned National Democratic con-
ventiOn to renominate him for the presi-
dency of the United States. and $40 dele
gates will assemble to do his bidding. But
they will really have nothing 70 do. When
the time comes to vote 1t will be apparent
to the veriest tyro among them that Presi-
dent Cleveland has already renoMinated
himself. He is man of destiny and he
will do as men of destiny do. The demo-
cratic nomination is his by right of con-
quest, and he will notcondescend to receive
it from any hands but his own.
Well, let Il be so. This is a self-nade
country, and it is natural that 1t should
fall down before a self-made man. But
was there ever so thoroughly self-made a
man as Grover Cleveland 1? We think
not.
And the party which is to allow this
American emperor to crown himself, is @
democratic party, is it? What is democ-
racy? We refer the general public to Web
ster and Worcester.

Tuesday evening to wreck the fast mail
train on the B. & o. road near Quaker City.
A rail was placed across the track. The

track. The hind wheels, however, caught
the iron rail and it was dragged along the
track mile or more, tearing up the earth,
it being finally thrown to one side.
The train was loaded with passengers
and they knew nothing of the hair-breadth
escape until the train was stopped and the
conductor and engineer went back and
found the obstruction as it was dragged
along. 1t is thought that robbery was con-
