What the REPUBLICAN Party has Done.

Tt subdued Rebellion and saved the Union
Itconquered war and established peace.
1t gave freedom to q race and a free ballot
to all men.
1t was patriotic enough to create debt to
carry on war and honest enough to make
provision to pay that debt.
1t made liberty universal throughout the
States and the flag honored throughout the
world.
1t made treason odious and loyalty the
badge of respected citizenship.
1t raised the nation from bankruptcy and
secured for our public credit the faith of the
financial world.
1t made persons and property freedom OF
thought and of expression secure in every
part of the land.
1t has dignified labor and secured its right
full reward by protective tariff laws.
1t has practically given each citizen a free
home by securing the public domain from the
monopoly of capital.
1t has, by a rigid supervision of corporate
franchise, made transportation cheap, safe
and rapid for persons and property.
1t has, by wise economies and just laws, re-
duced the public debt and the interest upon
it.
1t has, by generous, and yet just appro-
priation for PENSIONS illustrated its love and
respect for the Nations gallant defenders.
1t has made competency condition for
appointment to office and fidelity to duty
the tenure for holding it.
1t has reduced the public expenditure to
the lowest point consistent with the general
welfare and collected the tax from sources
best able to pay it.
1t has made religious liberty more secure
to all forms of faith by an enlightened public
opinion and establish free schools with no
sectarian denomination in them.
1t has, by fidelity to public trust, by it's
constitutional amendments, by it's statutory
enactments, Federal and State, by the life
and character of its long line of statesmen,
heroes, orators and martyrs, by its sacred
traditions, and it's matchless history of great
things accomplished, proven itself competent
and worthy to achieve the great things yet
to be done for the good and glory of the
country.

Tie Uncut Leaf.
From the New York Star.

From the New York Star
One of the fossilized absurdities
and Inconvenience of our time is the
uncut leaf of the book or magazine.
1t amounts simply to an unfinished
book or magazine. The trimming of
each book can be done by a machine
in the fractional part Of a minute.
The reader is now required to do this
part of the publishers unfinished
work. The custom is almost "Early
English" in it's origin, and dates as
far back as the time when the Eng
lish man hadn' tmany printed books,
and was SO proud and careful of his
periodical as to want it sent him with
the leaves uncut as a proof that no
one had read it before him. Two
hundred and odd years ago it was a
sbig thing" to have any kind OF
printed matter, and books were then
regarded with actual reference. But
the uncut leaf is one of the many
barnacles of custom and usage we
stagger under and endure, along
with the idea still current with a
class that a woman has no head for
business, or that a man can learn no
new art, trade or profession after
fifty.

HOW Maine Went:

just for the encouragement of the Demo
cratic brethren, who still continue to discuss
the political situation down in Maine the
central facts of the situation are given as fol-
lows.
l. Ever congressional district in the state
was carried by an average plurality of about
5000
2. Every county in the state elected, for
the first time in years, a Republican to the
State Senate
g. Every county in the state also gave
plurality for the state ticket.
4. The plurality in the entire state was
about $4,000.
5. The majority over all wassomethingless
than $4,000; when the Republican managers
gave it out cold few days before the election
that they confidently expected 10000.
6. The total Prohibition vote in Maine
the mother the Prohibition movement
was 1000.
Now, it is not worth while for our Demo-
cratic friends to get out of temper and sulk
The truth is that four years of Democratic
experiment has furnished sufficient amuse-
ment for the American people, and they have
determined to quit, and return to the yirtu

A Millionaire---But, Oh, So Hemely.

A Millionaire---But, Oh, So Homely.
The homeliest man in the United
States was in the Capitol recently,
and all the clocks stopped at once.
His name is Melville Demon, he halls
from Dakota, is worth $5, 900, 900 in
cash, has over 100000 cattle on his
ranches, and owns so much land out
in that Territory that he does not
know how much it is worth or how
many acres there are. To look at
him you would size him up as being
worth just a ten-cent plugged dime.
He is travelling for his health and
to see if he cannot better his homely
looks. State Senator Erwin would
be an Apollo alongside of Mr. Demon
for beauty. II know am not good
looking" he said, with a smile that
started all the clocks again, "but do
you know my homely looks saved
my life once? How? Well, when I first
settled out in Dakota the highways
were filed with desperate road agents
who were ready for murder and rob-
berry at any moment. I had consid-
cradle dust with me when started
out prospect ing for land.
II had been on the road for about
three days, riding a white horse and
looking about me- Fortune favored
me, for | had not run across any of
the road agents until aboutsun down

OF me several suspicious looking Gus
toners. They gradually approached
me, and when about twenty-five feet
away suddenly halted. They were
all agents, on horseback. They
whispered for few moments among
themselves with frightened looks,
and then the leader shouted: Great
Scott! boys, it's the devil on horse
back. Let's git and off they flew,
as if Old Nick himself was really af-
ter Them Mr.. Demon is rather
proud of his homely looks, because
it makes him an object OF attraction.
He has fiery red hair and an extra
ordinarily large head, but his looks
are indescribable. In addition to his
pleasure trip East, he shocking fora
wife also, and went down to New
York City to see if he could
find one who wiltshire his $4,000
900 and lands with him. He was
told he had better stop right here in
Albany for day or two, and he
promised to come back if he could
not find wife in New York-Albany

Impudence.

1t is sheer, bald-headed impudence on the
part Of the Democracy to go on talking about
their tarif-reform." They are for giving US
the Irish end of British free-trade. They
would go back to the colonial system from
which weescaped at the cost ofthe Revolution
airy War. They would secure the operation
in the tariff regulations of the Confederate
Constitution. They put up Texas and
Arkansas to legislate for New England and
Pennsylvania. There is no capacity ofreform
of any kind in the ranks of the Democratic
party. That party is as deficient in business
ability as in patriotism. In matters of bust
ness Carlisle and Mills are babies at the
public breast-M. Halstead.

knitting Cleveland,

The Iowa democratic state convention
adopted the following resolution:
The democratic party, now as heretofore,
declares itself opposed to prohibition, and
strongly condemns the same as injurious
alike to our business interests and the cause
of temperance.
This is a very peculiar resolution for a
democratic convention. Peculiar because it
is true. Prohibition votes are liable to hurt
every business interest in the country, as
well as the cause of temperance, by helping
to elect man for president who represents

democrats of Iowa knitting Cleyeland?-New

A Little Fable

New York Tribune: Once there was a man
who got caught out in the rain. He was
hailed by Noah as he sailed by in his ark. At
the time Noah hailed the man the man was
standing tip-toe on top of a flag staff which
was planted ON thereof ofthe tallest building
that the man could find. But even then the
man, at the time Noah hailed him was up to
his chin in the water How does the wet

humidity to speak of.

A Feint.

If Brice makes any fight in the western
states it will only be in the nature of 1eint.
His real struggle is to add New York to the
solid south by means of the slum vote of
New York city and the practical consolidation
of the eastern corporate monopoly interests
to keep the rule of the country away from the
west. The republican hope is that outside of
the Gould-Brice class, with it's motto of''The
public be DID," outside of the slum vot-
ers of the metropolis, outside ofthe northern
men with southern principles" enough votes
can be had to save the state of New York

The assault upon our protective system'cis

unconstitutional in law, or as vicious in

A Sensible Vorkingman

Said Democratic workingman in New
York the other day: l would rather pay one
cent more for dinner pail and establish an
industry worth $50, 100000 annually to this
nation than continue to support 100000
Engishmen in making tin plate, when that
number Of Americans want employment"
The argument is sound. 1t is sound from the
workingman's standpoint especially, and it
is sound from the standpoint ofevery intelli-
gent American citizen.

Natures Cosmetic.
Philadelphia Times.

Philadelphia Times.
No surer preventive Of wrinkles or
worn-looking skin can be obtained
than sleep at the proper times or at
odd moments, but of course this does
not apply to the sleep obtained by
artificial means. Healthful and
natural slumber is of all remedies for
skin prematurely old the best, and
the society belle who has the good of
her complexion at heart will contrive
regular rest daily, if possible at a
stated hour. One of the most famous
beauties of the day, the wife of
well-known artist, and whose social
life is not altogether one of inclina-
ton, since there are actual duties in
volved in it, told me that she made
it rule to sleep daily after her after
noon exercises from 6 to 7, arising re-
freshed and ready for the duties of
the evening, while she was certain
that the delicate texture of her skin
had been preserved by this means.
Certain it is that at 40 years of age
this woman has the peculiar bloom of
girl of 20. "Beauty sleep" is only
so-called because among the women
of the Orient the practice of early
sleep at night was cultivated, and in
Paris there are few bellies who do
not take a siesta before attending a
ball. Of course the busy housekeepeI
will smile at suggestions which hel

possible, but | am inclined to think
that with a little effort even such 6
one could contrive a brief period o.
rest which might recuperate not only
the complexion but the spirits of the
governing head of the house.
