ears. Why cannot those who are de-
tanned in the city by plenty of business
or a plentiful absence of cash
devise means to enjoy themselves?
They can, or else the Lawn
City is miSnomer for
Minneapolis. Why do not the owners
of the thousands of lawns in Minneapo-
lis utilize them for lawn feteS -fetes
champetre? Nothing comes with more
cooling charm to the heated frame, dur
ing this Brazilian weather, than
thoughts of handsome lawn, illumin-
ated by Chinese lanterns. Oh one of the
gorgeous summer evenings for which
Minnesota is famous. Why don't our
people try the plan more extensively?

There has not been a single social
event of Importance in the Flour City
the past week. 1t was the quieteSt
week that society has experienced for
the past year. This doubtless is due to
the excessive heat of few days, which
caused the pOStponement of many enter
tainmentS.
There have been numerous picnicS at
Lakes Harriet, Calhoun, Johanna and
Amelia.
~
1t is generally believed that the COM
ing society season will be the livelieSt
one that Minneapolis has ever expert
enced. Aside from the annual balls,
banquets and receptions of the organ
lied associations and societies there are
numerous announcements of swell af-
fairs.

Lawn parties are not so plentiful as
they we're a short time ago, and the
church entertainments are rarely
heard of.

The platform Just adopted by the
Michigan Republicans puts in this forci-
BILE shape the issue OF tariff revision and
revenue reduction:
We believe in reduction OF the in
creasing surplus and national revenues
to governmental requirements 6y. an
American Protective and Republican
system, and not by an English Free Trade
and Democratic system.
This is the doctrine-an American
protective and Republican system against
an English Free Trade and Democratic
system. liza man had need to remodel
| his house he would not employ an archt-
tect and builder determined to destroy
| it. II he had occasion to submit to a
surgical operation he would not employ
u surgeon bent upon taking his life. II
we mean to revise the tariff and reduce
the surplus in the interest OF the people
OF the United States, is it not clear that
we ought to entrust the work to men
friendly to the interest OF the people OF
the United States?
In this country we have tried Free
Trade and we have tried Protection. Ii
the people desire to return to Free
Trade, they should hand the tariff over
to the Democratic party. II they desire
to maintain and perfect the system oil
Protection, they should commit thework
to the Republican party. So says Mr.
Watterson, one of the ablest OF our Free
Traders, and Mr.. Watterson is right.

Mr.. Blaine had not set foot once more
on the soil Of his native land before he
had given utterance TO a truth which
will go ringing through the campaign
1.-THE wages OF the American laborer
cannot be reduced except with the con-
sent and the votes OF the American
iaborer himself"
The truth itself is not new, but 9lr.
Blaine has crystalized it in one sentence
that rivets the attention and embraces
the whole contention between the
American party of Protection and the
English party of Free Trade. 1t pre-
sents to every wage-earner, to every
friend of every wage-earner, to all who
are interested in the prosperity Of this
Republic, the one overshadowing issue
OF the campaign.
The contest is to decide whether the
wages of the American laborer are to be
reduced for the benefit Of foreign. pro
ducers or maintained for the benefit o.
the whole American people. The party
of Protection stands for American wages

TIE Parkersburg Journal speaks in
these complimentary and well deserved
terms OF well known citizen OF Ohio
county:
The many friends OF Augustus Pol
lack, Esq, OF Wheeling, will present his
name to the Republican State Conven-
ton Mt Charleston ms n suitable candidate
for Elector.at-Large. In this instance,
the choice would be most happy one
for the Republicans and one which is
merited. Mr.. Pollock is one OF the most
liberal and enthusiastic Republicans in
the State, is universally popular among
all classes, is an able, intelligent man and
fine speaker. He is n power in his
community and the State and is one Of
the most representative men OF the
party. Our Wheeling friendswill make
no mistake in urging the claims OF such
worthy gentleman. He would Ger
tainly add strength to the ticket.
The Republicans OF West Virginia will
honor themselves by honoring Mr.. Pol
lack, who seeks nothing Mt the hands OF
party to which he has been SO true
and serviceable.

This Evenings Republican Primaries.
This evening, between the hours OF
six and nine, the Republicans OF Wheel
ing will hold in each district an election
to choose delegates to u State convention
and another set to the convention OF the
First Congressional District.
1t is well known that two citizens OF
Ohio county, Mr.. Atkinson and Capt.
Dovener, have been hard ut work to Sc
cure the nomination. 1t is not MS yet a
demonstrated TACT that either should be
nominated; that either is the preference
OF Ohio county, or that either should
have the support OF the county, or OF any
considerable part OF it, III the nominating
convention.
The duty OF the men who shall COM
pose the nominating convention will be
to select, ii possible, the strongest Re-
publican in the district-thc man who
can poll the most votes and who, ii elect
ed, would best serve the district. 1t is
the present duty OF the Republicans of
Ohio county to see to it that the men
whom they trust to act for them in the
convention shall assist, not obstruct, the
convention in the discharge Of its high
duty.
How is this to be done? Not by
sending to the convention delegates
committed to Mr.. Atkinson, Capt. Dove
ner or anybody else. The delegates
should bo men willing to consult with
the delegates from all parts of the dis.
trict.
At each poll there will be an UNI
pledged ticket. 1t will not be difficult
to ascertain which is the unpledged
ticket. II the Republicans Of Wheeling

Pittsburgh Times.
Before Sheridan was 10 years old he
ceived surrender. This was from his
old school master, Patrick McNaiiy, who
was right good schoolmaster, but n
merciless disciplinarian, not to say des-
pot. For once Sheridan, who had Jared
i'll with the teacher, came to school
earlier than the rest. He made his
promptness count by placing bucket OF
ice cold water over the door in such n
way that the next conner, who was sure
to be Mr.. McNally, was cruelty douBed.
After the enraged teacher had shaken
satisfactory evidence OF innocence out OF
all the pupils as they entered the school
room, judgment OF conviction was
passed on the only one yet to appear,
the little Sheridan boy. The judgment
was not wiped out until the master had
chased Phil all the way home, and there
had been in turn chased up an apple
tree by the bad boys big Newfoundland
dog. After five minutes OF negotiation
and dickering, the shivering and chat
tering master made an unconditional
surrender and the boy called off the du-
tiful dog. Sheridan 4fterward said that
McNaily kept his word with him strictly,
but he had henceforth to take two whip
pings for every offence committed in
that school.

Sheridan's home was the place on
earth he loved best. Only those who
have been intimate in that domestic cir
Gle can tell OF its harmony. The young
wife, almost twenty years her famous
husbands junior, had all the pride in
his career that the daughter oil an army
officer, reared to appreciate to the full
the triumphs Of war, alone could know.
The trophies ofibattle adorned their hos.
pitable homestead, and flags were grace
fully festoonod about swords and arms,
and everywhere were pictures and busts
of the hero Of the twenty miles ride
from Winchester. He was devoted
and tender husband and proud and
happy father. No two happier people
could be seen in the drawing-rOoms OF
state than sturdy Gen. Sheridan and his
beautiful wife. There are four children,
Mary, Irene, Louise and Phillip. Mary
IS u years old, and took her first COM
munion VOWS on Ascension Day. Irene
and Louise are twins, and look SO much
alike that members Of the family often
fail to tell one from the other.
