The New York Sun seems to have had
it in for Mr.. Cleveland for purpose,
whatever that purpose is. The Sun
never allows an opportunity to rip
Grover up the back pardon the siang) to
pass unimproved. One would think
that from the record the Sun has made
out and published of the ex-president
that the sun could never under any
circumstances lend him its support, but
there is no greater mistake than TO sup
pose so. The Sun takes to crow as diet
as naturally as duck does to water. In
view of the rather sortuous career OF the
Suns ancient editor, if Mr.. Cleveland
care TO reply to his structures, IN kind,
he could truthfully exclaim: "As bad
as am and as good as you are. I'm as
good as you are as bad as | ann, or
words to that effect.

The new grain law passed by the Mis-
souri, legislature turns out, now that it is
signed and published, to be a holy terror
on option dealers and elevator men gen
orally. 1t is charged that the fine
Italian hands of prominent men have
been discovered in its compilation. 1t
would be a matter of much conjecture
if indeed it should now turn out that
''poor old Missouri had taken the first
step in the destruction of that most
precious of all steals, option dealing. The
whole legal force of the state is mar
shaded by this law for its own enforce
ment. Notaries, clerks, corporations
and their agents, and real estate agents
and owners subject themselves to many
fines if they in any way become parties
to option dealing. Bucket shops and the
like can no longer exist in Missouri.

Kansas City offered one-half million
dollars of bonds for sale on Tuesday last
and all she could get offered was the
pitiful premium of two hundred and

quarter of a million of installment bonds

bonds for an investment that can be
offered, and the premium paid was up

In reading the accounts of Stanley's
explorations, one is struck with the low
value evidently set upon the lives of ma
tives by the explorer. No more atten-
ton is paid to the shooting of half
dozen or so of them than if they were SO
much wild game. This is in striking
contrast TO the actions of that other
equally successful explorer Livingstone,
who was never known TO take a life,
always accomplishing his aims by gen.
tleness and persuasion. 1t is now in
order for some adventurous humani-
tartan to get UP an expedition and fly to
the rescue Of the barbarians from such
barbarous treatment. While such expe-
dition is being fitted out, however, it
might be well to hear Stanley's side of
the story, which will no doubt be forth
coming in due time.

The Chicago officials in their appar-

are likely to throw a boomerang, if, in

the accused-the first and only one he

HIS HAUNTING SPIRIT.

Since ST. John and his party disgraced
the name of prohibition in 1884 by prosti-
tuting the movement to the paying off of
personal spites, the prohibitory cause has
suffered overwhelming defeat in nine
sfates-the only ones in which it was
brought before the people for action-as
follows: In Michigan the adverse major
ity was 5, 645; in Texas, 81, 661; Tennessee,
1858; Oregon, 1885; West Virginia, 35,-
574; New Hampshire, 5000: Massachusetts.
A, 552; Pennsylvania, 1S5, 173; Rhode Island,
1886. Nebraska will probably soon sup
plement the list. 1t is a fearful thing for
the professed friends of great moral re-
form to make its very name stencil in
the public nostrils.-Emporia Republican.
From both a money and political
standpoint ST. John found the advocacy
of prohibition profitable. He came up
from Missouri, an unknown country
lawyer, settled at Olathe and then work
ed Kansas on his prohibition racket for
all the state was worth. He became
governor and run the state for st. John
and for his family and friends. When
he couldn't manipulate million people
longer by his hypocritical cry of "God,
St. John and Home" ne employed the
prestige he had secured in Kansas in sue
cessfully defeating the national Republi-
can party. Whether, as the Republican
says, he disgraced prohibition or not, he
gave Kansas her first and only Demo-
cratic governor, and the nation the only
Democratic president since the rebellion.
st. John was a sweet pill and slick one
and many Of us were compelled to swal-
low him knowing him to be only a pill.

If any one donhts the political
earthquake that is yawninc to en-
gulf and overwllelm MalnneiSm,
in November, let him read the ont
givingS of some of the lending Re-
publicsns of the State, published
in this issue Of the Vlrginian.
They are only reflections OF the
deep feeling that pervaslcs the
masses of the Republican party.
and which will find expression
either in an adverse ballot TO the
little boss, or in a silent manifesto
tion of rehnke for his despotic
methods. The conditions and the
times are propitiouS for II free de-
claralion of the resentment by thn
Republican voters Of Virginia of
the tyranny and the treachery Of
Mahoneism. They have horne, with
astonishing patience, his insolencc
his aggression upon their rights
his reckless purpose to rule or ruin,
and have determined TO settle aC-
counts with him once and for all
time. The deep mtlercurrent of
outraged feeling that perva,les the
great mass OF tho Republican vo-
tiers finds voice in the bold, brave
utteranceS to which we give a me-
dunn to-day, and which will be
given a more forceinl method Of
expression on the fifth of Novem-
her. The verdict that will inform
the world that he Republicans of
Virginia have ceased to he the alb
iect slaves of MISUNDERSTANDING
their manhood has been stirred;
their self respect aroused, and that
the incubus OF Mahonei>m has been
thrown off now and forever.-Val-

A GoOse Bone Forecast.

NEW HAVEN, September %
Henry Stillman, of Woodstock,
Windllam county's weather pro-
phet, has made his annual forecast
Of winter by Il goose bone. He
says the bone shows clearly that
we will have an open winter. The
goose hone il accepted by many
Windham county people as a bet
ter authority than Virgins or De-
Voc, or even old David A. Daboll,
the Connecticut almanac maker.
In many farm-hcuses it will be
found hanging in the hall, where
it is frequently examined. The
trne prophetic bono, it is said, can
only be obtained from goose that
has a trace of wild blood and that
was hatclle1 ont in the Spring. a
bone taken from goose haIched
IN May by Mr.. Stillman shows -
row 0t dots around the Keel OF it
indicating he probable tempela-
lure. The darker these spots are
the colder the weather is sure to
be. 1t is asserted that the marks
dividing the bone indicating the
Winter months, December begin
ming at che front. Mr.. StiIIman
says he has read the lore closely
aud finds that 1t indicates more
regular weather thar last year and
not so severe as even the last mid
Winter. There will not be many
days during which running water
will freeze. The coldest weather
will occur during the latter hall of
January, and during that time
there will he several days of freez-
ing. Near the point Of he hone is
"a mark discoloratior, showing that
the, first day of winter will give
proof OF tho seasons change.
Christmas will be green but wet
aud cold January's entrance will
be marked with warm days, grow
ing gradually colder. The coolest
day of winter will be January ~.

and the traditional January tEaw
will come in February. This month
will he \ dlSagreeable one, with
heavy SHOWS and rains. An early
and decided tLaw is among the
promises OF the bone. February
will. burst into March with swollen
mountain streams, and disastrous
floods may he looked for. There
will he an early spring.

The Valley Vireinian Repnbi'-
can, continues to fire hot shot at
tie Boss, aud in commenting upon
his spe, ch at Abingdon, last Mon
day, uses the following vigorous
language, which sounds very much
like that used by the Democrats
some years ago, when Mahone was
seeking from the Democratic party
Tie nomination for Governor, which
he failed to obtain.
His plea for protective tariff
Was neither novel nor original. 1t
was rphash ofargnments framed
by better men and prepared III
better form. The protection that
Virginia wants just now, more
lhanapy ntberisprotec'ion against
Alahompism. That liz the menace
10 Eer peace and prosperity, and
nntilt that is effected, The popular
mind Will give very little thought
to the platitudes Of this arch-plot-
ter against her material life.
Malone has DO element of a
statesman in bim. He is pur-
loinerof other mems ideas and
COMPILER of other meu's facts and
and arguments. The highest
claim he can present in either
State or national politics is that OF
otficr-brokcr. That is the climax
of his ambition and the limit of
his capacities. He is the incarna-
nation of hate and the perfection
OF inslpcerity. His speeches and
his acts are antlpodes. He cares
nothing for Virginia or the coun.
try, except as he may promote sell
in pretending otherwise.
Virginia has no use for such a
character in the Executive Char
1T was not made for boss and il
will never be occupied by one OF
his pattern.
