I;lle Sun
For 1889 and for the Democracy.

The Sun believes that the camp
paign for the election of II Demo
cratic Congress in 1890 and DEM
ocratic President in 1892 should be-
gin on or about the fourth of next
March. The Sun will be on hand
at the beginning and until the end
of the most interesting and impor-
tant political conflict since the
war, doing its honest utmost, as
ever, to secure the triumph of the
Democratic party and the perman-
ent supremacy of the principles
held by Jefferson, jackson and
Tilden.
The great fact of the year is the
return to absolute power of the
common enemy of all good Demo-
crats-the policical organization
for whose overthrow the Sun
fought at the front for fifteen years
the memorable years of Grant and
the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and
Arthur.
1t is the same old enemy that
Democrats now confront, and he
will be intrenched in the same
strong position. 1t has been car
ried once by brave and hopeful
fighting. Do you not believe with
the Sun that the thing can be done
again? Wait and see!
The hope of the Democracy is in
the loyal efforts of the united press
cherishing no memories of past
differences in non-esscntials, for
getting everything but the lessons
of experience, and that victory lisa
duty.
Probably you know the Sun al
ready as Il newspaper which gets
all the news and prints it in in
comparably interesting shape;
which chronicles facts as they oc-
cur and tells the truth about men
and events with absolute fearless
ness, making the completest and
most entertaining Journal publish
ed anywhere on earth; and which
sells its opinions only to its sub
scribers and purchasers at two
cents II copy-on Sundays four
cents. IL you do not know the sun
send for it and learn what IL won
derful thing il is to be in the sun
shine.

ton, bnt in Somerset County.

A writer in the Pittsburg Post in
speaking about the earliest manu-
facture of W hiskey in this State
said: "The story dates back to the
year 1896, when one of George
Washington's most viliant soldiers
by name John Large, wandered
into the then wild regions of Penn
sylvania. He had left II pleasant
home in New Jersey, but being of
ambitious al d venturesome turn of
mind he concluded to try his
fortune among the undeveloped
valleys of the Upper Ohio. The
vicinity of Pittsburg struck his
fancy, and he settled here. Find
ing a demand for better and more
whiskey than was provided by
pack-saddle and caravansary he
established a distillery ON Mount
Washington. There, overlooking
the waters of the Monongahela, the
first whiskey madein Pennsylvania
was produced"
Replying to the statement a
Somerset county man writes to the
same journal: "This writer could
have never heard of the whiskey
insurrecton in Southwestern Penn
sylvania in 1874, when George
Washington was President. The
cause of the uprising of the people
to man-including clergymen
and women-was the tax of 37t
cents gallon put on whskey to
help pay the war debt of our revo-
luton.
"Two of the most prominet lead
ers in Somerset county were ar
rested. Others hid themselves in
the deep woods for months to avoid
arrest. The names of the two men
arrested in Somerset county were
Herman Husband and Robert Phil
son. Husband died in Philadel-
phia, within his prison bounds,
which was only few streets in
the city. Philson was released
without trial, came home and WAS
afterward elected to Congress as a
mark of gratitude for his sufferings
in what the people then thought
was a righteous cause"

Most of the French gowns still,
retain II bouffnnt black.
One thing most noticeable ia all
gowns is the increasing tendency
to elaborate details in the sleeve.
The old fashioned grenadine is
again seen in some of the imported
dresses. Many are woven with
satin stripes IN simulate the ribbon
effects which have been for IL long
time popular in net dresses.
Skirts of walking gowns arc
made IL little longer and they
generally touch the ground in the
back. For the house de,ni-trains
are once more popular and many
handsome imported gowns are
made up in this manner.
Sashes are all the rage and no
woman, no matter what her age,
who can possibly have one, cor
sidrrs her wardrobe complete with
out it. Some think they make an
old person look younger, while
others consider them absurd for
any but young people.
Hats, as a rule, are low and flat;
but trimmings brings them up to
any height desired. This is de-
cidedly flower season, and art
rivals nature in the varity and
beauty of the blossoms produced.
Blouse waists, made in both
plain and fancy materials, promise
to be even more popular than last
season. These help togive variety
to contums, as several skirts can
be won with the same waist; they
are particularly appropriate for
young persons.
A charming bonnet is of Il close
fitting shape made of crepe and
embroidered net of the new shade
of green called SaUie. The gown
is made of putiings of crepe caught
into large five pronged buckle.
The trimmings is brought from
the back over the front where it
forms knot. On top in mass
of small pansies, cowslips and roses.
The strings are of embroidered net
caught with n spray of roses.-

AGENTS FOR THE LIGHT.
FRIDAY. FEBRUARY. 8, 1889.
NOT THE GUILTY PARTY.

The Brennan Banner in its issue of
Tuesday morning says, concerning a
recent editorial on Samoan affairs:
Recently Texas paper published
an elaborate and learned editorial on
Samoan Affairs" and shortly af-
forwards the same editorial appeared
in another Texas paper credited to
the Cincinnati Enquirer. The Vic
toria Advocate is puzzled to know to
which paper should be given the
credit"
On the second day of February the
LIGHT published column and half
of editorial on the Samoan question.
That editorial may or may not be the
editorial referred to in the above, but
lest it may be so considered, the
LIGHT emphatically denies that it
took the article in question from the
Cincinnati Enquirer or any other
paper. Nor does the LIGHT believe
that the Enquirer copied Its articles
without giving credit therefor. The
LIGHT has not been to Samoa, but it
has had access TO the en-
encyclopedias, has read the cor
respOndence on this question,
has carefully followed the line of the
United States senatorial utteranees on
this point, has read the articles in
the New York Tribune and otherwise
informed itself concerning the situa-
ton. From the information thus re-
ceived and from its private Washing
ton advices the LIGHT editorial was
written. 1t was written to supply q
want of its own readers imperfectly
informed as to the matters in contrO-
versy between this government and
Germany. 1t does not pretend to
have original and personal knOwl.
