ocrat. As soon as he became ap.
prised of what had been done, he
gave orders to have the flag and

the estreamer was all right but order
ing the flag down at the same time
was to much even for the "Hoosi-
er" Democracts, and the result
has been to turn nearly ever dem
ocrat in the county to the Repub-

proves the truth of the theological
statement, that, the devil some
times overshoots the mark.

Vestibule rains to h ieago.

The Vestibule train is a new
factor in western railroad trans
portation. 1t is claimed for these
trains that on account of their be-
ing connected by steel hoods all
danger of telescoping in case
of accident is removed, the train
being practically one long car. 1t
is certain that the oscillation of
the cars is greatly reduced, and it
is also certain that the yestibule
trains afford the greatest comfort
yet known to travellers. The adop-
ton of this style of train by the
Chicago, Santa Fe d California
railway between Kansas City and
Chicago is strong bid for the
passenger trafc between the West
and Chicago. This new road is in
many particulars ahead of any of
its Older competitors, and will un-
doubtedly be the popular road to
Chicago.

When the inevitable conse-

man in Mr.. Cleveiand's position in
the language which he used, free
trade at once becomes a
living issue. There is an end of
