And For The Democracy.
The Sun believes that the campaign for
the election of a Democratic Congress in
1890 and Democratic President in 1892
should begin on or about the fourth OF next
March. The Sun will be on hand at the be-
ginning and until the end Of the most inter-
esting and important political conflict since
the war, doing its honest utmost, as ever, to
secure the triumph of the Democratic party
and the permanent supremacy of the princi-
pies 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 Democrats political organization
for whose overthrow the Sun fought tor fif-
teen years, the memorable years of Grant
and the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and Ar
thur.
It is the same old enemy that Democrats
now confront, and he will be intrenched in
the same strong position. 1t has been carri-
ed 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 loyal efforts of united
press, cherishing no memories Of the past
differences in non essentials, forgetting cv'
erything but the lesson of experience, and
that victory is duty.
Probably you know the Sun already as
newspaper which gets all the news and
prints it in incompsrably interesting shape,
which chronicles facts as they occur and tells
the truth about men and events with abso-

gizing to his stomach.
It was summer. One day Mr..
sniverly, his daughter and Pete went
on q little excursion all by themselves
up the Hudson. They put up at a
little country hotel and amused them
selves by walking around and gazing in
a semi.entranced condition at the
beautiful mountain scenery. They din
ed in an open pavilion. The bill of fare
consisted principally of tomato soup,
boiled cabbage, string beans, rye bread.
with boiled rice for dessert, moistened
with nice spring water.
Pete ate very sparingly. He did
not seem to have brought his appetite
with him. He yearned for ham
sandwich.
After dinner he sat with Laura in an
arbor and read the Lady Of the Lake
to her on a comparatively empty stom.
ach. Her father was IN his room TAX
ing siesta. The longer Pete read the
hungrier he did become.
At last he put down the book and
said:
4 remember seeing some beautiful
flowers near the brook where we were
this morning. I will 60 there and
gather them for you
Do so, dearest, and will await your
return, but remember we must get on
board pretty soon. Don't be gone too
long
Pete disappeared. Mr.. snlverlv
having finished his siesta, came to
Laura, and from her learned that Pete
had gone to where the flowers bloom.

but III the meantime III settle the bill.

The waiter came.
'Three OF us had tomato soup, two
gallons Of milk. string beans, etc.
What does 1t come TOP
Are you paying for the young man,
too?'
Certainly
In that case it amounts to little
more. He has had two beefsteaks,
some mutton chops, some cold ham, fri.

Who has had all that? snorted Mr..
Sniverly.

hungry man in my life
Mr.. Sniverly went with the waiter,
and, peeping in, saw his prospective
in-law hard at work in the kitchen
guawing mutton chop. He seemed
to be very hungry.
When Mr.. Snlverly told Laura what
he had seen with his own eyes. fear.
full suspicion that Pete had lied to her
took possession of her mind.
What william! Mutton chops and
beefsteak What shall I do? And he
told me he was going to the 1ivulet
where the aowerets bloom, she gasped.
Half an hour afterwards Pete saun-
tered into the harbor with happy ex-
preston on his face and large bunch
of violets in his hand. On the table was
a note in Laura's handwriting. He
wrenched 1t open and read:
Everything is paid for, even your
beastly beef bill is paid. Farewell

THAT Middlemiss.C annon Suit.


The proceeding yesterday in the
above well-known action, was princi.
palIy before the District Court. In the
morning, the warrant that had been
placed in the hands OF an officer the
day before was served, and Mr.. Can
non appeared before Commissioner
Cross. who desired him to give bail in
the sum of $500 for his appearance
Saturday. This Mr.. Cannon, by his
attorney, refused to do, and commit
ment papers were made out and handed
to the sheriff. In the meantime the at.
torncys for Mr.. Cannon had been busy
with q writ of hGbeas corpus, which was
granted and O'Clock named for the
time of hearing. The petition on
which it was sought to stop proceed

bodied the complaint in full. Argu-
ments by counsel for both sides were
heard, and the question whether or not
the libelous language complained OF
was sufficient cause on which to base .
complaint, was thoroughly ventilated.
The defense allowed even If the lam
