The Fourteenth.

The Fourteenth Ward club held rous-
ing meeting Tuesday night. The parade of
last Friday seems to have given an impetus
to things political. The Calling band was
on hand, playing patriotic airs while the
people assembled. The programme was
carried out as follows:
George M. Cannon, Esq, lectured on the
subject OF democracy and Republican
Ism, with their main points of difference.
A select reading, Responsibility was
given by Miss Emma Simpson.
1.-The Star Spangled Bannern was played
by the band.
A beautiful white silk banner, mounted
with insignia representing the universe.
was presented to the marching club by
Miss Annie M. Cannon, in behalf of the
ladies' relief corps, with the following
speech:
have been requested to say a few words in
behalf of the young ladies of the Fourteenth
ward Without attempting much of speech, /
wish to present. with our compliments this ban
ner. We are all, as it were, on a troubled sea at
midnight-the powers of darkness asSailinC us
on every hand-but the star is our guide and will
lead US Alright, while the fair moon is as 'ssym-
Dol of love IN the heavens reminding us that
the great and merciful Creator will not desert us
in our hour of need. Anchor safely in the har-
Dor of truth and justice, where we ever wish to
remain, although temptation may strive to lure
us astray.
Spotless as our banner is now NAV our cause
ever be, and marching steadily on may we
find that victory is ours"
A response was given b. Captain Daniel
Harrington. The presentation was at
tended with rounds of applause.

The Thirteenth Ward.

The meeting in this ward was announced
to be held Tuesday evening in the school
house and all arrangements were thought
by the programme committee to be straight
until the hour of the meeting, when the
house was found locked and no lights.
Toere was boy there with the keys, but
with positive instructions from the lanitor
(who had gone to the convention or else
where, so he couldn't be found not to
allow any one to enter without written
order from Mr.. Walden (the junior trustee;
Mr. E. B. Critchlow is chairman OF the
trustees.) So not wanting to please those

having the meeting broken up, 1t convened
in the assembly rooms and was addressed
for short time by A1r. S. A. kenuer, who
in his impressive manner showed up the
liberality TO be expected at the hands OF
the Liberals, quoting as al illustration the
circumstance that compelled US to meet in
the assembly rooms. Surely, he said, they

A PARODY.

From the death and burial of Sir John Moore
to the death and burial, politically, of o. w
Powers chairman of the Liberal party Feb
ruary 10, 1890, Salt Lake City, Utah
Not drum was heard, not campaign note,
AS his corpse TO the Alta we hurried
Not a Liberal fired farewell rocket
Ger the grave where our hero was buried.
We hurind him deem February tenth
The Sods with our helmets turning,
By the struggling moonbeams rusty tint.
And the torches dimly burning.
No useless coffin enclosed his breast
Nor in flag nor in banner we wound him,
But he lay like a carpetbagger taking his rest
With the Liberal voters around him.
But roughly they'll talk of the Powers that's
gone,
And e'er his colonizers upbraid him,
But little he'll care if they let him sleep on,
In the grave where young Utah has laid
him.
We thought as we followed his narrow bed.

That Murray and Lannan would weep DER his
head,

But half of our heavy task was done
When clocks tolled the hour for retiring;
We heard the cannon and campaign gun
That the Peoples party were firing.

Few and short were the prayers the ''LibS'' said
They spoke not a word of sorrow,
But they steadfastly gaZed ON the face of the
dead
And bitterly thought of Tri6. tomorrow.

The Twelfth

The Peoples Twelfth Political club held
an interesting session Tuesday evening.
The Mandolin and Guitar club added much
tie the interest of the meeting. Remarks
were made by William M Stewart, and E.
A. POLAND, the speaker of the evening,
delivered brief but enthusiastic speech.
The gentleman referred to the substantial
work done by the Peoples party, contrast
ing it with that done by the Liberal party,
dwelling sarcastically on the wordy
promises of the latter.
A quartette by Miss Lucy Hardy, Miss
Wheeler and Messrs. Allen and Butler
closed the interesting programme

A Lille TarIH Poem.

He sat in his door at MONDAY,
lonely, gloomy and sad; brooding
over the price of his corn crop and
figuring how much he had. He had
worked from early springtime, early
and late and hard, and he was count
ing his assets and figuring out his
reward. he figured that il took two
acres to buy his two boys new boots,
and ten acres more on top of this to
fit them out with new suits. To
buy his wife protected dress took
one hundred bushels more, while
five acres went in a solid lump for
the carpet on the floor. His taxes
and his grocery bill absorbed his
crop of oats, while the interest on
his farm mortgage took all his
fhtted shoats. The shingles on his
cowshed and beef-steers, the bal
ance of his corn. So he sat in
his door at MONDAY, lonely and
gloomy and sore, as he figured up
his wealth at less than it was the
year before. "By gum, they say
I'm protected, but I know there's
something wrong. I've been de.
ceived and gulled and hoodwinked
by the lying traitors, and held up
the bloody rag, and followed along
Ike pumkin-head and now I am
holding the bag. But from this
time on I'll investigate and get tc
the bottom of facts, and I'll bet 81
to begin with that the tariff is 8

LUCK DID DNOTTuRNTHEIR
HEADS.
Two Wise Young Clerks who
Won $4,000 in the LOuisi.
ana State Lottery.

Henry Hudson and Harry Knots,
two young clerks in G. d. Kenny's
tea store, 500 n. Gay ST. furnish an
interesting instance of the fact that
a stroke of good fortune does not al
ways turn the heads of those who
profit by it. A couple of weeks ago
they drew SIS, 900 in the Louisiana
State Lottery and have already re.
ceived the money. Instead of cele-
brating their good fortune by giving
up their places and proceeding to
"enjoy life, J" as so many persons do
under similar circumstances, they
put their money in the bank, and are
working just as hard ut selling tea
as they did before they became
bloated capitalists. A Ne,0s report
er saw Mr.. Hudson this morning at
his place of business. "Have you
received your money yet?" inquired
the reporter. "Yes," was the reply.
"We learned of our good luck March
18th, the day after the drawing, and
we placed our coupon in the hands
of the Adams Express Company for
collection. l tell you it made me
feel like new man when handled
my half of it, and my friend was
just as happy as 1 was.
"Both of us made up our minds
to hold on to our heads and not let
our good fortune run away with us.
SO we deposited the money in bank
the same day. 1t is there to stay,
for q while at least, as my friend
and L don't intend to give up our
places just yet.
at only cost me so cents to get
that $1,000 and it happened this
way" continued Mr.. Hudson. "My
friend and ! had invested a dollar,
or fifty cents apiece eight times
without getting anything, and we
began to feel like dropping the
thing. In fact we came very close
to not buying a ticket this month.
eve haven't struck anything vet"
said my friend, shut still fifty cents
apiece isn't much. We won't miss
it even if we don't get anything"
81 thought would spend the
money for something else, anyhow,
so L said all right, and we sent one
dollar and got one-twentioth ticket,
No. Sl32, which won $500, 900, of
which we received S15, 1000, the one
twentieth part"
II is said that another Baltimor-
can drew s15, 900 in the last months
drawing of the lottery, which was
collected through the Franklin
Bank of this city. AT the bank the
officers refused to say anything
about the Baltimore, (Md.)
Neics, March 81.

Protection Protects the For.
eign WOrkinRmau.

1t is shown in a Communication
in the Philadelphia Record from Mr..
Farquhar, of the York Agricultural
Works, that since the fall of 1889
the worlds demand for iron has ex-
ceeded the capacity of other coun-
tries to produce it, so that the only
result of our high tariff Is to OBJ
struct our entrance into the foreign
market. We alone of all countries
are in position to increase our pro-
duction of pig iron and steel indefi-
nitely. With free trade in raw ma
terials we could compete in price
with England and Germany, but
under our present system, no mat
ter what our productive power, our
product costs too much to sell
abroad. Practically, our tariff pro-
tects other making countries
from our competition. A wiser tar
iff, Mr.. Farquhar holds, would set
-us to producing for the whole
world, would multiply our furnaces,
mills and factories, would increase
the demand for labor, and would
put up wages.

Will Have a ReactIonary

Cleveland Plain Dealer.
The Republican organs are al
ready figuring on the chances of the
next Presidential contest, and as
sumo that the admission of the six
new States will make Republican
victory certain. The calculations
omit Arizona and New Mexico, it
being understood that these would
give Democratic votes if admitted.
and therefore they are to be kept
out until aftor 1892. The admis.
sion of six territories as States and
the rejection of the other two, bet
ter qualified for Statehood, as they
are, for purely partisan purposes,
may have reactionary effect in the
older States and assist in demoral-
izing the carefully worked ont cal
culations of Republican victory.
There are more "doubtful States"
than figure in the Republican list
of that class.

Meeting of the state League Of
Democratic Clubs.

The Huntington Democratic club
has given an invitation to the State
League of Clubs, to meet at that
place to consider matters pertaining
to party organization and other in-
terests Of the party.
We are glad to see such move
ment being made, and we hope the
State League will either promptly
accept the invitation or appoint
some other place of meeting.
The coming fall elections will de-
eide which party shall have pre-
dominance in West Virginia, and
will settle it for some time to come.
When the Republican party once
gets into power, it don't stop at any
measures to perpetuate itself This
is now being well illustrated at Wash
ington. "It will require" as Mr..
Tilden once said, ga two thirds vote
of the people to dislodge it"
We will probably have that ma
jority in the next presidential elec-
ton. The masses of the people be-
gin to realize that if they would
preserve their constitution and the
integrity of our government the
party of spoils and corruption must
be retired. But West Virginia will
be depended on to help perpetuate
Republican rule. IF the plans now
being secretly aud industriously
laid by the Republican spoiIsmen to
capture this State next fall are not
thwarted they will succeed. The
lonly way they can be thwarted j:

The farmer never will be protect

National Farmers Trust is organ
lied and half the farms in the conn
try "clOsed down" to restrict pro-
duction. That's plain. He now
must meet competition in the free
markets of the world. Why not,
therefore, protect the farmer gener-
ally as Mckinley proposes to pro-
tect the Southern sugar grower
by bounty on his products-corn,
wheat, eggs, butter, potatoes, tur-
niPs, parsnips, etc.7 If the South

farmers would make oath 70 the
amount of their products and re-
ceive their bounties. That would
give the farmers some share of the
protection Doodle. A farmer would
come to market with so many BUSH
els of potatoes, dozens of eggs, etc.,
etc. All he would have to do would
be to make oath to the amount and
receive his bounty. It's a great
thing, that bounty scheme of Nc
Kinley's, only he doesn't carry It
far enough.-Register

to Organize the party-organize it
as the enemy is organized. Every
voter should be polled in advance
and thus ascertain where work is
necessary to be done.
A list Of the voters of every poll
ing place in the State was in the
hauds of the Republican benchmen
at the last election, and they knew
exactly what they had to do to car
ry the State before the vote was
cast. That is the only effective way
to conduct a campaign, and if we
haven't got an executive committee
who will perfect such an organiza-
.tion we ought TO have Domin-
ION.
