Simply an nti.Republican Movement.

The prohibition candidates for the presf.
dency and vice-presidency in their letters OF
acceptance devote the greater part of their
attention to abuse of the republican party
and the republican platform.
If they are not playing into tho h ands of
the democracy they should take down their
signs. Gen. Fisk, we are sorry to say, is car
ried away either by unreasonable prejudice
or insane fanaticism. Naturally a good man,
with military record that he Gun afford to
be proud of, he has become imbued with the
idea that the republican party is the deadly
enemy of the temperance cause, when, in fact,
it has been it's mainstay and total dependence
for years.
The other party, Brooks, confesses that he
he has been n rebel at heart; that he was q
traitor to his country; that while pretending
to be in sympathy with tho union cause
his wishes and his hopes were with tho south,
but thanks God that he has never been q re-
publican.
This is Il pleasant statement coming from q
candidate for the vice presidency ofthe United
States. How do the loyal and patriotic pro-
bibitionists of1owa and Kansas like it? How
do the Temperance people of tho north in
general like it?-Chicago Mail.

A Shameful Act,

Sometime ago our democratic English ad.
ministrntion contracted with a British manu-
facturer for a consignment of army blankets.
the excuse being that a few dollars was saved
over the price for which the lot could have
been purchased in tho United states. This
was bad enough, but n deal has just been con.
summated by the war department even more
humliuting to those who believe in the people
and the institutions of this country. Congress
made Il large appropriation todredgeNew York
harbor, and the contract has been awarded
to an English syndicate which owns and op-
crates a large dredge now in the New York
docks, called the estate of Alabam,." The
principle on which the dredge operates is to
sink the sand and mud from the bottom
through a pipe. and transfer it to a vessel
which carries it to tho sea and dumps it:
thus to be employed arc owned by English
men who live i'll England, and they fly at
their lnast-heads the British flag.

An English Workman ON the Tariff.

This talk IL given by WOrklngman OF New
York city:
l am u printer, or rather a pressman. I
served seven years to learn my trade in Lon
don. When l became Il journeyman, my
wages when on piece work averaged not
more than 81, or IS per week, and when l
was lucky enough to get work by the week,
my wages were thirty three shillings, or 50
per week.
II was obliged to leave England to come
to this country to look for a living, and
thank God that came here. arrived here
III 1867 and at once obtained work at $18
per week, nearly four times as much as l
could make in free trade England.
sin England could not afford to get
decent piece of meat for my dinner except on
Sunday. My family was obliged to live most
of the time on n bullock heart, like thousands
of other poor workingmen in England. Four
years ago visited England. found that
the wages were still as low as they were TWEEN.

here. Meat is twice as dear there as here;
other living in proportion. So you can i'm
agine how the poor workingmen haye to

They Seem to Appreciate Cleveland.

The South American wool growers have
made a collection of Argentine woods and de-
ivered the same to Hon. Bayless Hanna,
our minister to the Argentine Republic for
transmission to President Cleveland, "wLo
will see in the gift,'' says the Buenos Ayres
standard, "ncompliment to his policy of tar
in it," As it is part Of this policy of tariff

we demand home rule in Dakota, where tens
of thousands of American citizens are prac-

in the management of political affairs solely

Talking Ono Way and Acting Another.

When Grover Cleveland spoke against a
second term. referring to the fact that "a
horde of officeholders, with a zeal born
benefits received and fostered by the hope
f favors yet to come, stand ready
to aid with money and trained political SER
vice." he was probably even then outlining
his plans for a reelection. No man but an
accomplished hypocrite could utter such
words and then Immediately proceed to con-
tradict them by his conduct. The man who
thus openly talks one way and acts the other
must believe that the people ore fools or that
they love knavery and duplicity.-Clevclanj

An ad. when first looked at, is not seen at all,
And again on the floor it unnOticed will fall;
The third time 1t assumes a familiar face,
And the fourth time is seen I'm Its own proper place:
The fifth time 1t is looked at, the locker half reads II,
The sixth time says, "Pshaw! why nobody needs it.'
The seventh, the ad. is a source of great pain;
At the eighth he blurts out, There's that darned
thing again!'
The ninth time he wonders, "If there's anything I'm
it?'
The tenth time he reads 1t In less than a minute.
At the eleventh he will ask cross the way,
If he sees 1t a twelfth time, how such stuff can payP
Thirteen times makes him think 1t may be a good
thing;
While a fourteenth perusal the longing doth bring.
Fifteen times he has read, and thinks he win try it;
His wife on the sixteenth entreats him to buyit.

On the eighteenth he is told that payday is come.
