STRAW COMFORT.

The republicans are sucking comfort through straws. Not, as might be suspected, through the straws that cheer and some times inebriate, but through the straws that are blown on the winds of the little town elections held in this state on Mon day. Thiris pretty cold comfort, but some republicans could fir d sweetness i'll gall and worm. wood Mondays elections show nothing unless it is that the parties main tain about their same relative strength throughout the state. Party lines are not closely preserved in the town electione- local considerations are ordinarily de termining factor. But the democrats have generally held their own, and have scored a notable point in electing, for the first time in twenty years, democratic board of selectmen in Ridgefeld, the home of Governor Lounsbury. This might be cited as a very significant straw if the democrats were disposed to take their in spiration through straws. But they are satisfied that the elections of Monday show that the strength of the party is intact, and that the contest of principles and party polity involved in the national elec ton will close up the lines in Connecticut next month. The democracy will enter upon the struggle for national success with a firm and united purpose to hew closely to the common interest that has brought victory in the past. Tariff reform is a gonfalon of victory. The east wind of promise is laden with buds of conquest These buds will bloom and blossom in the economic study that intervenes before November 6, and when the polls are closed throughout the land they will burst in all the splendor of a glorious victory for Cleveland and Thurman.
 The knowledge that the Connecticut democracy stands firm and united dis counts the straw comfort of the repub- licans.

commendable one! If this demand or the move to meet the demand be free trade in the democracy, it is open to the same ob- jection when coming from the republican side. If the small raid on the tariff pro posed by the Mills bill is free trade, or "a step in the direction of free trade" then surely any raid engineered by the repub licans can be styled the same.
 Truly the Press has conceded the dem ocratic position. All honest republican organs must do the same. Excessive tax ation for surplus and boupties is net con sistent with our republican institutions, and the people are determined that such taxation must go.
 Tariff reform is the crying need of the present.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-03

sumption, making greater the demand and stipend for labor, cutting down the 'ex- cessive tax on consumption-this is truly a system of expanding opportunities MT Morton, without intending it, has epigrammatically stated the relative posi- tion of the parties.
 MT Morton's letter is the weak and tot tering production of one who walks on uncertain ground. It shirks the direct declaration and development of economic ideas and reveals the mere perfunctory performance of a publicly accepted obli- gat;on. It will stand with General liar rison's acceptance as public confession ot the inherent weakness of the republican policy. And it will convince anew the student of economics that the democratic policy of free raw materials with protec- ton for manufactured goods is the best for the welfare of this great and growing country.
 This conviction will be overwhelmingly registered at the polls.

THE DEMAND IS JUST.

"The demand for a (tarif) measure of some kind from the republicans is just one and will be met by the senate" says the New York Press. And yet the Press and lesser luminaries and the stump crackers have been holding that no measure was necessary, that the tariff is now per feet and should not be altered, and especially in any direction of lower taxes. That the republican senate has felt the pressure of public opinion and been forced to devise some scheme for amending the present excessive taxation knocks the pins from under the party's position and makes it target for the very objections that have been so strenuously fired against the democracy.
 If the demand for tariff reform is just, why is not the democratic party's desire to meet this demand a

THE present has already gone into his tory as the longest continuous session of congress ever held in Washington. The longest preceding session was that of 1850, when the Missouri compromise bill was passed, which ended September 30. There is no telling when the present congress will adjourn, as the senate is about ready to launch a tariff discussion. However, all things come to him who will but wait, and there is hope that even the republican senate may yet see the folly of it's unprece- dented procrastination, shut up shop and go home. And the sooner the better.

WITH free wool the $44 ,0OO, 900 worth of woolen goods imported into this country last year from Europe could have been made here. This would have meant an in creased demand for labor here and more wages. And it would have given the con- sumer cheaper goods, for the cheaper the materials the cheaper the production, and the cheaper the production the cheaper the price put upon the finished goods.

THE republicans took the tax off in comes, railroads, banks and other sources of wealth. They left the tax on the neces- sa-ies of life and the articles that are used by the poor. They resist all forms of tax reduction that would inure to the veal of the poor man. Tax reduction for the rich taxation for the poor-is the republican policy

PLANETARY MOVEMENTS IN
1881

The migra,ious in the planets in
1883 will bring several of these
members Of the suns family in close
proximity to each other. In jan
uary the two brightest OF the plan
cts, Venus and Jupiter, will be in
the same constellation, Libra. From
January TO August. Mars, the earth's
nearest neighbor, outwardly from
the sun, will occupy a position in
Virgo near Uranus, the remotcst
member but one from the planetary
brotherhood. In August Venus will
be with Saturn in Cancer, Mars and
Jupiter will each he skurrying out
OF Libra into Scorpio in September,
Just as Venus enters Libra. Two
months later Venus overtakes Jupi-
ter in Sco,pio, although Mars st that
time has passed out Of that star
group into S%aggittarius.
Unlike 1887, one or more of the
conspicous planets will be visible in
the evening sky in every month in
1888. Saturn will be evening star
from The beginning of the year until
Angus, l.; Mars from January 5 to
the end OF the year Jupiter from
February to December s, and Venus
from July II through the remainder
Of 1888. Saturn will be the bright

One Of the simplest barometers
is a spiders web. When there is a
prospect Of a rain or wind the spider
shortens the ilsments from which
its web is suspended and leaves
things in this state as long as the
weather is variable. If the insect
%elongates its threads, it is a sign OF
fine, calm weather, the duration Of
which may be judged OF By the
length to which the threads are lie,
out. If the spider remains inactive
it is a sign Of rain ; but if, on the
contrary, 1t keeps at work during
the rain, the latter will not last long
and will be followed by fine weather
Other observations have taught tina
the spider, makes changes in its wei
every twenty-four hours, and that i
such Changes are made in the even
ing, just before sunset. the nigh
