"She came in, climbed into her chair,
folded her little hands demurely, bowed
her head and said in a low voice: Let

Tho stereopticon in Politics

While the republican organs are irving
to make it appear that Chairman Brice's
management OF the democratic campaign
is not altogether satisfactory to his party,
Mr.. Brice keeps steadily at work, and the
headquarters Aside from his rou tine
duties, Mr.. Brice is accredited in some
quarters with making the cleverest move
OF the campaign. By means of stereonti-
con he causes to be poured into the repub
lican camp, nightly, the hottest kind of
shots.
The stereopticon man works up his in
scriptons during the day, and for several
hours at night he throws them upon the
large canvas which overlooks Madison
square, in the pivotal city of the pivotal
state, and causes the spectators to feel
nettled or merry, according to their poll
tics Here are some samples of the inscrip-
tions flashed upon the canvas by the wicked
man who operates the machine: "Hurrah
for His Grandfather" TRUSTS Cannot
Prosper Under a Low Tariff" ''National
Senatorial Theater, Capitol, Washington,
James G. Blaine, manager. Scene, Senate
Chamber Act 1. Eater Blaine. He
Rushes at the Trembling Tariff Revision
Committee, and They fly
That this original campaign work is not
without its effect is shown by the spiteful
manner in which the republican organs re-
fer to it; and it is not improbable that after
awhile they will have to hold up on Mr..
Brice's alleged shortcomings, and give
-
stereopticon, which promises to take it's
place in the campaign alongside of the po-
litical cartoon in influencing voters. Terse
inscriptions like the above, or extracts from
Mr. Clevelands letters and messages can
not fail to be effective. Mr.. Thurman has
furnished lately some excellent material for
the stereopticon man to work on, who no
doubt will catch on to it. In tho moan
time, the crowds before which he performs
increase nightly.

His Voice is Too Weak.

Senator Edmunds viii not take the stump
this year for the republican ticket. He
didn't take it i'll 1884, but the reason he gave
for declining then was altogether different
from that which he gives now. Then he
permitted it to become known that he could
not conscientiously advocate the election of
Mr.. Blaine. He did not express himself
quite so strongly as the late Mr.. Conkling,
who, when asked to make campaign
speeches for Mr.. Blaine, said that he had
no taste for criminal practice, but the i'm
preston prevailed to some extent that he
could have given a reason for his silence
equally as uncomplimentary to Mr.. Blaine
without doing any violence to his con-
science.
He says that he cannot make speeches for
Gen. Harrison because he is worn out by
his labors in congress, and that his throat is
in such an unsatisfactory condition that he
could not do himself justice. He declares,
however, that his heart, hopes and wishes
are in the success of the republican ticket,
and that he has no doubt that it will be
triumphantly elected.
There is just little ground for suspicion
Iudb CLc ochdOOi 10 AOb very W6ll pledS6Q
with the prominence which Mr.. Blaine has
been given in the campaign, and that he is
not altogether satisfied with the indifference
with which he has been treated by his
party. He has long regarded himself
as one of the greatest of its leaders,
and thinks, perhaps, that if he had
been nominated at Chicago, the chances of
the success Of the republican ticket would
be much better than they are.
Senator Edmunds is very able man and
has been frequently mentioned in connec-
ton with the nomination for Presi-
dent There never has been any great
probability, however, that he would get
the nomination. The hold which he has
upon the hearts of the people isn't strong
enough to secure for him that honor. He
will probably remain in the senate as long
! as he wants to, but the probability that he
will ever reach the presidency, or even
receive presidential nomination, is so re-
mote as to be hardly worth considering.

Mr. ohsndlor,s Outrage speech.

Senator Chandler occupied great deal
of the time of the senate dCring the week
just closed with bloody shirt speech of tie
old fashioned kind. 1t would havc attracted
considerable attention from the republican
press doubtless, if the Presidents message
on the rejection of the fisheries treaty had
not been sent to the senate at its close. and
caused the country TO overlook It.
The speech was very much like the sena-
tors previous speeches on the same subject,
and consisted largely in statements about
outrages committed in various parts Of the
south. The statements, of course, were all
drawn from republican sources, and may
have very little, if any, truth in them.
Being intended for partisan purposes, they
were colored as highly as possible without
appearing ridiculous Those relating to
alleged outrages in Texas were vigorously
denied by the Texas senators, who promised
70 produce evidence to show that they are
false.
1t seems strange that Senator Chandler
hears of so many more political outrages in
the south than the southern people them
selves. The suspicion is strong that
ooiAO "a Ciiein are manufactured lOI his
especial use. He certainly appears to have
a monopoly of them.
His main effort last week was to show
that the last state election in Louisiana
was carried by the democrats by fraudu.
lent means. He was not able to produce
any evidence of fraud. He compared the
returns in some of the parishes with those
of 1894, and assumed that he had made out
his case. He may be satisfied, but he can
rest assured that he hasn't convinced the
country. The Louisiana senators will sub
nit few facts which will make clear what
Senator Chandler attempted to clothe in
doubt.
But why does not Senator Chandler say
something about the election frauds in the
northern statesf Does he not think it as
great crime to stuff ballot-boxes in Ohio
as In louisiana When he has shown that
the skirts of the states in which his party
has the upper hand are clean, he can speak
of alleged frauds and political outrages in
the southern states with far greater effect.

| A good n.ary reasons Why this country
/ should buy Cuba il il can be bought, and a
good inany wiz it should not, have been
presented in the public prints within the
nast few weeks. There is one reason in
! favor OF buying il, however, that has not
J been giTon by those who represent the af-
! fsTnativo size Of tho question. 1t is the
| possibility of uiaiiag Havana healthy
| city by sanitary means, and thus prevent
/ ing it from Icing a constant menace to the
health c. this country.
| Havana is tho bone of yellow fever. II
is there al the year and almost every sum
mer it is epiolemic 1t appears occasionally
in othcr parts of Cuba when the weather is
such as to cause it to spread, but the opinion
prevails that it does not originate at any
place on the island outside of Havana.
There the disease originates. and other
places are infected from that city.
There is no doubt that the disease now
prevailing in Jacksonville and other points
in Florida was brought from Havana.
When the disease first appeared in Key
West year or so ago it was traced directly
to bedding from Havana, and the charge
has been made that it was brought to Tampa
by the Plant steamers There is every rea-
son to believe, however, that the charge
against the Plant steamers is unfounded
The evidence that it was brought there by
a vessel engaged in smuggling is convinc-
ing.
But if the Plant line of steamers were
discontinued, the danger of infection from
Havana would not be greatly lesseued.
There are sailing vessels entering Florida
ports all the time from Havana, and they
are not one-hundredth part as careful about
health matters as the Plant steamers are.
These steamers, carrying passengers who
are travelling to and from Cuba from all
parts of the world, cannot afford to neglect
any precaution against the fever. If a case
should occur ON one of them. their passenger
traffic would fall off at once, and would not
regain its original volume until all appre-
hension of danger had died out.
AS Florida increases in wealth and popu-
lation communication with Havana will
become more frequent, and the closer the
communication the greater the menace to
the health of this country will be-
Can the fever at Havana be stamped out
altogether by the adoption of all the means
known to sanitary science2 Assuming that
it can, it would oe advisable for this coun-
try to buy Cuba, even if good big price
were demanded tor it.
The cost of yellow fever epidemic in
this country is immense. In great epidemics,
like that which desolated the Mississippi
valley in 1873, thousands of lives are
sacrificed and millions OF dollars worth of
property are lost. This country could
better afford to pay $l0O,OOO,0O0 for Cuba
than TO have another such a visitation.
Why should not congress take steps at once
looking to the purchase of the island? If
the suggestion to purchase it is regarded
with favor, it cannot heacted upon too soon.

High Tariff g Funeral.
FRIENDS, DEMOCRATS AND FELLow-cITIzENs


FRIENDS, DEMOCRATS AND FELLOW CITIZENS
Lend me your ears
come to bury High Tariff not to praise it:
The good it has done exists but in theory;
It's evils shall be Inferred with its bones
So let it be with TRUSTS" The noble Blaine
Hath told you Trusts are for the country's
good.
II it is so, it is grievous wrong
That they should go but It's not so.
And grievously must they answer fort.
Here under leave of Blaine and the rest
(For Blaine is an honorable man;
So are they ALL all honorable men),
Come to speak in ''Protection'S' funeral
1t is the republicans friend, faithful and just
TO them;
But it hath brought the laboring man to ruin.
Whose Golfers does Protection" fill,
Yet Harrison says it ia the labOrer's friend;
Aud Harrison is an honorable man.
l speak not to disprove what Blaine has said,
But here am to speak what do know.
We needed Protection" once, not without
cause;
But now we need it no more:
What withhold you then to mourn for it?
My heart is with Cleveland and Reform,
And must pause till it come back.
But four years ago the word of Blaine might
Have stood against the world; now lies he
there,
And none to do him reverence.
Oh citizens! If we're disposed to stir
Your hearts and minds to rage
l should do Harrison wrong, and Morton wrong;
Whom YOU all know are honorable men. /
rather choose
To wrong myself and you
Than will wrong such honorable men.
But here's document, with the name of
Cleveland,
l found it on the Records It's his message,
Let but the People hear this read
And they will flock unto his Standard
s roaming with Bandana< red.
l tell you that which you yourselves do know,
That give us CLEVELAND ut the head,
And that grand OLD ROMAN by his side,
And nothing, saYe the Intervention of
Providence
Can block the wheels of that Triumphant
Chariot,

versation. In the crowd were Maurice Barry

slack for moment he would raise his voice and
pipe shriDy
''We It is my candid opinion that Bob In

At once there would be torrent Of argument,
invective, abuse. Endorsement and disseusion,
which would keep things in whirl until every
one was tired odt, and then the voice of the
little man would rise again with some sucn re-
mark as:
"Well, when James G.. Blaine is half as clever
as Charles Stewart Parnell, want somebody to
explain to me how it ls."
When he finally came to comparing Bismarck
to Bouanger, however, a light Of suspicion
flashed around the eyes Of the group, and there
was quiet melting away. Still, the idea is not
bad one for any debating club, il it is stranded
by the aridity and barrenness of the summer

because he did not want tbs senate repub!i-
