The Queen and Crescent Route to the
South challenges attention as having the
best appointed service of trains and the
fastest schedules of the day. The track is
in faultless condition, sleepers and coaches
are of elegant pattern, aud few stops being
made BY the Limited Express train after
leaving Cincinnati, no difficulty is expert
enced in obtaining accommodation of the
highest standard. The line penetrates the
richest mineral and cotton sections, and en-
route to New Orleans and Shreveport the
phenomenal cities of Chattanooga, Gads-
den, Birmingham and Tuscaloosa are passed.
A journey south, via Queen and Crescent
Route, is recommended.

him famous both in this country and
abroad Twenty-Five years ago he was
elected bishop Of Minnesota. The great
state was then little more th,n a howl
ing wilderness. He settled at Faribault
small village sixty miles south of st. Paul,
and founded the great educational plant that
bas since made that small place famous On
the hills overlooking the pretty little place
there are now three educational institutions
owning Sl.OoO,OO worth of property theo-
logical institute, school for girls and a
military school, the latter the West Point of
the west All of these have been nurtured
into prosperity by the rare executive ability
and the indefatigable labors of this man. His
greatest work has been in aid of the Indians
For quarter of a century he has done mis-
sionary work among them, converted thou
sands; has appeared before congress before
presidents and even before the crowned heads
OF the Old World in their behalf. He is
greatly beloved by all Of the western In.
dians, and is familiarly known by them all
as 1.-THE Straight Tongue or the 'sFather
Who-Never-Lies.n When he first went to
Minnesota there was not a railroad in the
state. Winter and summer he made his nil
grimages among his distant fiocks, and MANY
times Travelled for days all alone over the al
most endless prairies. In his ministerings he
rode one faithful horse over fifty thousand
miles. He was frequently caught in terrific
snow storms, and suffered all kinds of kard
ships, and ,he story of his life would make
book of absorbing and romantic interest.

AFTER THE ELECTION, WHArq

The result of the impending presidential election on the future condition of the parties is a matter of interesting specuIa- political study. It is pretty generally recognized that this Is campaign of almost vital importance to the two great political organizations that are contending for supremacy, aud many believe that the result will settle the political and economic conditions of the country for years to come. The New York World core spondent at Washington has undertaken to collate the views of leading men in both parties, and the result of his effort is in- teresting
 A significant incident is the almost unanimous consensus of opinion among democrats interviewed that democracy will continue to flourish, with all it's great vitality unimpaired, whether or not the eagles of victory perch upon its banners The fundamental principles of democracy are inherently and essentially permanent, and they can never be eradieated from the governmental problems of free and eosmo-
 
 politan republic. Administrative power is an incidental but not an essential force in the existence and continuance of these principles. The principles remain, and loyalty thereto will always flourish and be extensive, whether or not the incident of governmental control be present. It is constitutional party, and can never pass out of existence while the constitution Ives. With repubIicanism the case is very different That party WAS organized for the accomplishment of distinct and def mite mission. With that mission effected the party lost it's cohesive power, and is held together by a vague, visionary ambition to hold and con- trol the plumber of public pap. It has no grip upon the Wage-earners, by whom it is distrusted, and must appeal for con- tlnued existence to the pampered classes who profit from it's unequal and unjust administrative and executive discrimina- tions. It is hardly 10 be wondered at,

CHAIRMAN QUAY reckoned without his host when he thought he could hook General Master Workman Powderly as easily as he did Secretary Litchman. Powderly refused to sell himself-he isl nt built that way. Mir Powderly declares that he was offered the commissionership of the department of labor by republican leaders just prior to the election of 1884, provided he would pronounce for Blaine, A similar attempt was made this year, two weeks after the nomination of Harrison, when he was offered the place of Colonel Wright at Washington ''by a man who came direct from republican headquarters, " provided he would stop the opposition of the knights to Harrison in the state of Indiana. There is not gold enough in all the monopolies and trusts of the republi- can party to purchase one hair of Terence V. Powderly's head.

HE TOWNS HIGHWAYS.

It can hardly be questioned that the con dition of the highways in the town of Waterbury is susceptible of very great im provement, and many citizens will be dis posed to approve any method that may be competent to bring it about. That super intendent should be appointed, however, at considerable salary, as was done at the town meeting last evening, may be open to question, and it certainly will not meet with approbation from all the taxpayers. Care should be used ill the creation of sal ariedotfices and the fewer paid funct;onaries the town has the better. The wisdom of last nights action, however, can only be demonstrated by it's results. If it be effec- tive in oiving us better roads, making travel safer, easier and more comfortable, and insuring an attention that seems to have been rather conspicuouslyab in the past, step in real progress will have been made, and the office of superintendent of highways will have demonstrated it's own utility
 If the wisdom of creating tine office be debatab1e, excellent judgment was shown in the selection of an incumbent. MT James Sutton is particularly we'll adapted to the duties of the position, and his experience has amply qualified him for their perfor nance We may confidently look for better roads, economically constru cted, repaired and maintained, and with the genial super intendent at the helm we shall have less of the complaints that have been so numerous in the past. We can congratulate citizens and taxpayers that man so well qualified has been chosen to fill the position of su- perintendent of highways.
 We bespeak for lin successful career in the office

HARRISON OFF HIS BASE.

General Harrison is unbalanced. Or perhaps he is an intentional liar. He told a delegation of visitors a few days since that 'every revenue tariff has been fol lowed by business and industrial depres- son" This is very wide of the truth. In fact the very opposite is the case. Every change in the tariff toward lower rates has induced business and industrial prosperity. Take, for instance, the period following the adoption of the Walker act
 in 1846. Instead of depressing business or industries it inaugurated a season of re- markable prosperity. And right here in New England the effect of the Walker tariff was particularly beneficial, so much so that in 1857 every one of its repre- sentatives in congress who voted at all voted for still further reduction Every representative from Connecticut voted for the reduction, proving that the experience
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-09

of our state and the nation under low tariff had been beneficial
 General Harrison, if he knows anything of the tariff, knows that he spoke falsely when he said that "every revenue tariff has been followed by business and indus trial depression" Such misstatements destroy confideflce in his candor and inspire mistrust. \ man who will publicly make such false declaration is either dis, honest or ignorant. General Harrison should be more careful.
 He is evidently eff his base.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-09

therefore, that republicans gre divided as to the effects of defeat this fall on the permanency of the party. Many of them are prepared, in the event of defeat, to accept the judgment of the people as tolling the requiem of the party. As Congressman White says, "the next thing in order will be receiver to wind up its affairs" This is the view of the best in formed repr blicans, though some consider able portion of them are hopeful that Blaines mag letism will hold the party to- gether with himself central figure and the offices a vivifying force. 1t is des- perate situation that confronts the repuo- lican party, and the battle will be made with all the grim energy of giant des- pair.
 The democrats have a mighty inspiration to vigorous effort in this campaign. A victory means rout. and possibly annihila, tion, to their great opponent, and ln any event it mears shock from which 1t will not rally for many years to come. And ii means, too, that the great cause Of tariff reform-lower and more equitable taxes, cheaper raw materials for manufacturers, larger fields of competition and greater outlets for pre- durtion, steadier work and better wages-wiN receive an indorsement that will encourage it's friends and sup porters to push it to its best and highest results The democrats should feelit duty to their party and to themselves to r"ll ul grand and glorious victory this fall.
 With such victory the country will bt democratic for years to come.
