How to Light n Cigar.

To give some people good cigars is
but casting pearls before swine. They
don't know how TO light them. The
best Havana" that is imported
from New York will yield but vile,
unsatisfactory smoke If lighted so as
not to burn in a clear ring all around
and evenly. The outside, or wrapper.
is OF the best tobacco; the next the
binder. is Of a poorer grade. while The
bulk Of the cigar, tho "fller," is the
poorest. They are assorted with the
intent that they may be burned to-
gether. When this is done, the result
is delicate and gratifying smoke
Light even a poor cigar thoroughly,
keep the cinder moderately close so
il will not break OFF right at tho fire.
and on my word as a connoisseur, you
will enjoy il.

it be, that promises most for the ad-

the blighting influence of a policy that
would destroy American industries
that British manufacturers might have

MANS LAWS.
Outrages Against Which the Ballot Is the
Only Defense.

Only Defense.
How about some customs in our
boosted Christianized civilization? How
about the mother having no legal right
to her child? No right TO the little be-
ing whom her own vitality has nour-
ished. and for whom she has undergone
the pains and perils incident to its be-
ing ushered into the world, and for
whom she will have the most unceas-
ing care and solicitude for the proper
development of body. mind and heart.
Yet it is not hers! Who dares to say so?
The law. And who makes the law?
Man, and man alone.
Listen, coolly, if you can, while 1
| mention another outrage on natural
and maternal instincts which this same
power authorizes-the right of the
father to will away the child before it
is born. This was actually done not long
since. in one of the free States of Amer
lea. The details of the case are sad
and touching. representing injustice it.
self, and also the ingratitude of the dy-
ing husband. whose wife had supported
him during his sickness, with money
earned by school teaching previous to
their marriage. How about property?
An injustice, but still a lesser outrage
on natural instincts Take an actual
fact, as given by Wendell Phillips some
years since. and which occurred in
Massachusetts,. A man married a lady
with large property. After enjoying
the benefits of it for a year, he died,
leaving to his widow in his will this
property to be hers as long as she re-
manned his widow. Magnanimous!
One can not help smiling at the ludic-
rousness of the thing, while amazed at
the injustice of it
have heard of one or two cases
lately, where the wife left her property
to her husband as long as he should re-
main a widower. Why not? She
might as we'll object to another wife
having tho use of her property. as
husband might to another husband
having the use of his. Aside from these
points. there are many that might be
spoken of. showing the disabilities with
which women have to contend, as a
class unrepresented by their own bal
lots.
But brighter day is dawning. The
cause Of woman's enfranchisement is
grandly advancing. 1t has outgrown
its swaddling clothes. and is attired in
garments of dignity and proportion.
1t can not be remanded to its germ life,
for, as Talmage says in regard to pro-
hibition, Its wings are spread for
fight across this land. and no power on
earth can crowd this Rocky Mountain
eagle back into its former she'll" More
than that, its power has been success

Give Her a Chance

she would vote or not, Grace Green
wood recently said:

member once to have seen superbly
overshadowed by his magnificent moth
er-in-law, the Duchess OF Sutherland,

gressive manhood, is sternly conserva-

twenty years ago, he was gracious
enough to deliver before a mechanics
institute. he said. "A woman has no
right to appear upon platform except
when she is about to be hung; then it
is unavoidable This smart saying
caused a great hilarity among his
grace's audience, a little wit from a
nobleman going a great way. / used

laugh-at woman's expense-but then.

particularly smart, never failed to
bring generous applause, and this COM
ment was: The freedom Of the scat

SOUTHERN REPUBLICANS
A Movement Distinct from Office Seekin
and Office Getting.

A Movement Distinct from Office Seeking
and Office Gett;ng.
The Birmingham convention has
some features of interest. 1t is the
first time in the history OF Ala
bama that a convention has been held
exclusively of white Republicans for
the avowed object of organizing a new
political movement for purposes dis
tinct from office-seeking or office-get-
ting. One of the resolutions adopted
declares:
The aim and purpose OF this meeting IL not
to commend any man for office, or to interfere
In any manner with the distribution OF Federal
patronage, but its supreme purpose IS to a6-
vance the interests Of the Republican party
and to enlist in its upbuilding the new men and
new forces now developing the material inter-
ests OF the State Nor is II the purpose Of this
organic at on TO keep out or drive out any man
from the Republican party on account Of race
or color, but to promote the peace, welfare and
happiness OF the party and OF all classes Of CIT
liens.
The character of the delegates
seemed to corroborate this statement
There were about three hundred of
them, and they were not what are
called professional politicians" but
solid business men of decided political
convictions and deeply interested In
good government and in the develop
ment of the South by the advancement
of Republican principles. The exclu-
sion of colored men from the new Or
ganization is not according to Repub-
ican ideas or methods in the North,
but under the very different conditions
which exist in the South it may inure
ultimately to the benefit of both par
ties, though, of course. colored people
can not be excluded from the Repub-
lican party. If the movement results
in obliterating the color line and sub
shutting therefor a new party line
which would divide both the colored
and the white vote of the South, it will
have accomplished a very desirable
result That is the avowed purpose of
the movement. and intelligent South
ern Republicans who are engaged in it
believe it will be successful. At all
events, it is an interesting indication
of the drift of political sentiment in
the South.-Indianapolis Journal.

ARKANSAS POLITICS.
Democratic Papers Denouncing the Cli
ton and Smith Assassinations.

Democratic Papers Denouncing the Clay
ton and Smith Assassinations.
There have been numerous efforts
on the part of Democratic organs to
disconnect from politics the recent
murder of the negro Smith near
Plummerville. Ark, and to make it
appear the result of quarrel between
him and Richmond, his murderer.
The Arkansas Gazette (Dem.). how
ever, seems to have no doubts in the
matter and frankly acknowledges its
suspicion that the murder was only
another chapter in the Clayton assas-
sination case, basing its suspicion
upon the testimony at the coroner's in
quest and upon the fact that Smith
was an Independent candidate for sher-
if at the late election. had rendered
what the professional detectives en-
ployed consider valuable assistance in
the investigation of the Clayton assas-
sination, and was in constant associa-
ton with them. More than this, the
Gazette is shrewd enough to foresee
that it is just such outrages as these
which are endangering the future
success of the Democratic party
in Arkansas. 1t warns the party
that il they do not cease it
will be defeated in 1890. The Arka-
delphia Standard. another prominent
Democratic organ, also sees the COM
ing danger and says: at is safe to as
sert that in 1890 Arkansas Democracy
must rise early and fight long and
hard If it would win the crown. We
can carry no dead weight, and. if we
have any clinging about us now, the
sooner we rid ourselves Of it the bet
ter" All signs indicate that if the
Administration gives the Arkansas
Republicans half chance they will
make a good showing at the next cleo
ton, and there will be no more Clay
ton murders, either. The largely de.
creased majority with which the DEM
ocrats carried the State at the judicial
election recently is another pointer in
the same direction. Though they
made desperate efforts to get out their
vote to offset the increasing tide Of
Republicanism. they only succeeded in
carrying the State by little more
