&C. ~ Terl9 Premlns.t,

II 10 amusing to nOte the strennOus
efforts that the Democrats are making
70 have II sppear that the present cam
patgn involves nothing bnt local issues.
Republicans must see TO II that tho nA-
tional issues involved are not lost s'ght
Of In tho political discussions OF this
yeAf. The Democrats themselves mAdN
the tariff the question pre- eminent III
Iowa last year. BY their systematl. ed
misrepresentation they achieved . par-
tial victory for free trade. This ycar II
Is to be decided, largely. whether hat
victory shall be permanent ir lows
Success this year for the Democracy will
BE- interpreted to mean an Endorsement
Of tariff reform In the interests Of tho
importers and foreign manufacturers
Defeat for Democracy this year will
mean that the "new allies Of the North.
west" are not permanent allies Of tho
free traders Of New York aud London.
The Mckinley bill has changed In
popular opinion since last year. What
wa then denounced as an atrocions 'aw
Is now praised ~ q wise and patriotic
measure enacted for greater and more
general prosperity. Instead OF higher
prices for everything, prices on many
articles have remained stationary and
on others have been lowered. In tho
item OF cheap sugar alone . whole
mountain Of prejudices has been lifted.
Tho Republicans are not wise II they do
not take advantage Of these facts and
conditions. The Democrats laid down the
issue last year when McKinleyism was
unpopular; the Republicans must insist
upon It this year when M~cKinleyism Is
popular. The Democrats must not be
allowed to cover the tariff with the per-
sistent cries Of slocal issues There Is
reason in their madness-they are afraid
to 20 before the people on the question
Of the tariR.-Des Motnes Register.

An unusual oDes
tho one that's made by the propri.
etors of DR.. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
Unusual, but made in good faith.
It's q reward of $500 for an incura-
bic case of Catarrh. If you have
one, the moneys for you. But you
can't know whether you have one,
till you've tried Dr.. Sage's Remedy.
What's incurab1e BY any other
means, yields to that. BY its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing
properties, it cures the worst cases,
no matter of how long standing.
That's the reason the money can be
offered. There's . risk about it, to
be sure. But it's so small that the
proprietors are willing to take it.
The symptoms of catarrh are,
headache, obstruction of nose, dis
charges falling into throat, some
times profuse, watcry, and acrid, at
others, thick, tenacious, mucous,
purulent, bloody, putrid and often
sive; eyes weak, ringing in ears,
deafness; offensive breath; smell
and taste impaired, and general
debility. Only = few of these
symptoms likely to be present It
once.

The Alliance in Ohio.

Small comfort the Democrats will get
from the Alliance nomination for Gov
ernor Of Ohio. John Seitz, OF Seneca,
who 10 the Alliance standard. bearer. was
. lifelong Democrat up to 1877, and
served two terms In the State Senate as
. Democrat. He was the author OF the
famous Seitz bill, prohibiting the use OF
money In electio9s. Though he fell
away from the party In 1877, he returned
to support Ewing for Governor In 1879.
Two years later he was the Greenback
Labor candidate for Governor. All his
friends In political life are Demo rats.
Whatever votes he polls personally will
be drawn from the Democrat party.
The Democracy has been encouraging
the Farmers Alliance to put up q ser q
rate ticket In Ohio, and it has ever been
charged that It has been willing to foot
al the expenses Of the third party cam.
paign. A Democratic candidate for Con-
gress in . Republican district IN Nebras-
ka set up such . plot last fall, paying
the expenses of an Alliance man to run
for Congress in . triangular fight and
carry OF enough Republican votes to let
him be elected. The Alliance man was

ment Of the Democrat who had paid tho
Alliance mans bills. The Alliance will
not win In Ohio, but 1t looks - though
the Democrats In encouraging the third
party movement had given solid q d to
Major Mckinley and would insure for
themselves IS complete discontinue rs

Of tho Republican party all are urged to

Protection is growing popular In the
South, says the Des Moines Register. In
the States whore industrial development
has made most progress the protective.
tariff sentiment is very marked. A
meeting Of protectionists was recently
held ct Asheville, N. c.; delegates to the
number Of 500 we're in attendance, rep
resenting every part OF the State except
the Democratic back-woods reg ons. 1t
Is the intention of the leaders OF this
movement to organize protective tariff
leagues In every township Of the State.
The old South has been hope!essly we'd
ded to free trade, but under the domin
ion Of It's bosses the chief products OF
that region have been . shareholders
rebellion, mules, wooden p'ows. noon
sinners, and repudiated debts The
dawn Of the new era, let it be hol ed, has
come-the era OF progress, schoolhousos,
factories, and improved farms under tho
b~ene6cent reign Of protection to the
products Of labor and to labor itself.
The business depression that followed
In the wake OF the free-trade victory
last fall has aroused the South to the
interest IL has In projection, and may in
time effect . political change.

How People eleep.


Though it is true, as the author
Of . school composition once asserted,
That Sleeping is . universal practice
among oil n~ations,' it is also true that
there is . great diversity in the methods
Of sleeping among people Of different
nations and different ways OF life. The
things which one person needs to make
him sleep are precisely the things which
would keep another awake all mig ht.
Even the sedative medicines which put
person immediately into . heavy
slumber excite another into Q condition
OF nervous restlessuess.
The European or American, in order
to sleep we'll, ordinarily requires o
downy pillow under his head; but the
Japanese. stretching himself upon .
rush-mat on the floor, puts . hard,
square block Of wood under his head,
and does not sleep we'll il he does not
have il.
The Chinese makes great account OF
his bed, which is very low indeed
scarcely rising from the foor,-but is
often carved exquisitely Of wood; but it
never occurs to him to make it any
softer than rush-ms.s will render.
While the people Of Northern coun-
tries cannot sleep unless they have
plenty of room to stretch out their
legs, the inhabitants Of the tropics often
curl themselves up like monkeys at the
lower angle Of q suspended hammock.
and sleep soundly in that position.
The robust American often covers
himself with q pair OF blankets and
throws his window wide open to the
air, even in the winter time. and he
does not complain il he finds . little
drift Of snow across the top Of his bed
in the morning.
The Russian, on the contrary. likes
no sleeping-place 20 we'll ~ the top of
the big soapstono stove in his domicile.
Crawling out OF this blisteriug bed in
the morning, he likes 10 take . plunge
in . cold stream, even il he has TO break
through the ice to get into it.
The Laplander crswls, head and all,
into . bag made Of reindeer skin, and
sleeps, warm and comfortable, within
It. The East Indian. ct the other end
Of the world, also has . sleeping-bag.
but il more porous than the Lapland.

While he American still clings TO his

turity.
