The BANANA TRADE.
JNo. III. RoRNER.

The consumption OF bananas in
the United States has STAINED pro
portions which almost pass compre-

present generation the fruit was g
comparative luxury, scarce and dear.
while at present the price is as cheap
as the supply Is enormous I'm

have brought the Central American
producer and the North American
consumer into closer proximity: and

markets which few years sgo were

Michigan Democracy

One of the most sueservient organizations
in existence is the democratic party, Dartic-
ularly of tn northern states. No wonder
they were known of old as dough faces,
since facial expression was SO easily mOul,i-
ed. With flourish of trumpets, the demo-
cratic state convention in 1890 at Grand
Rapids, proclaimed for free coinage of sill
yer and six months after pass ever the ques-
ton at Lansing, unmentiOned in name
Notwithstanding 1t has been the stock demo-
cratic argument of the state. All this is be-
cause Cleveland Is eulogized i'm the Grand
Rapids platform and free coinage demanded.
Free coinage is either right or wrong and
the Michigan democrats find themselves I'm
the position of having been wrong in their
demands or else were right and do not dare
set themselves in opposition to the express
sion of Cleveland. Ii the financial prosper
ity of the nation depends upon free silver,
then financial prosperity is of less import
ance than the demands of an eX-shertf, of
Erie Co. From their own standpoint the
question was put to Michigan democracy,
''Choose we this day whom ye will serve"
national prosperity or Cleveland, and the
answer was Cleveland.

state for congressional and Legislative pur-
poses and to pass the Miner electoral bill
with view TO electing a democratic sena-
tor in 1892, and giving majority of the

spurned by Wilcox were the whole sum

A Wise Suggestion.

Otis Fuller, of st. Johns, introduced a
resolution at the Clinton Co. Republican
convention reciting in substance that the
race and municipal government problems
were largely resultants of ignorance and
that the difficulty could be most effectually
remedied by imposing educational qualifica-
ton 70 the right of franchise.
The statement of fact above mentioned is
one that is appealing each year more and
more to the intelligence of the public. AS
Stunning the position of democracy regarding
the negroes in the south as correct and the
known reason for Tammany misrule in New
York, Cregierism in Chicago, Jacobsen IN
Detroit, and the thousand little bosses &C
cording to the size of the places, all is based
on the ability to control the ignorant and
vicious elements. These are the menaces
to good government that the Fuller resOlu-
ton aims to reach, by providing an educa-
tiopal qualification for voters. Its merit Is,
that is is aimed not at democrats or republic
cans the negro, or any foreign born citizen,
but at ignorance To know how to vote
rightly involves intelligence, and any party
that would oppose intelligence would ulti-
mately fail by reason of its own evil genius.
Partisanship can be dismissed in the consid-
Grafton of this question, the problem of good
government be given place rather than that
of party advantage.

A mother should DO careful to make only
reasonable demands upon her child's obedi-
ence, but when once made, to enforce them
implicitly. One should be very careful
never to enter into contest over point
that cannot be enforced. A child may be
made to do certain things, but no power on
earth can force him to do others, or to say
words that he has made up his mind not to
say. The prudent mother will enforce her
authority and teach obedience on ground
that she is sure of being able to hold.
Points that she knows she cannot carry she
will avoid until the habit of obedience is
formed, and then there will be no discuss

Republican Platform.

The republicans of Michigan, in convention as
sembled, in the city OF jackson, where &c years
ago, under the oaks, the great party OF human
liberty and equal rights was born, looking back
wards over period Of unparalleled national and
state prosperity, as the result OF the sumprema-
cy of republican principles, do hereby adopt the
/. Resolved, that we believe in maintaining
the integrity ofthe currency and that silver and
gold should be used as O money basis by the
United States; and to accomplish this end all
the American silver product should be received
ut its market value by The government, and legal
tender silver certificates or silver coin should be
issued therefor
q We believe in the purity OF the ballot box,
and that abridgment Of the right Of suffrage Is
perilous to the safety Of the nation, and we de
mand the enactment Of such national laws rs
shall protect every American citizen in the ex-
ercise Of this sacred right.
3. The republicans OF Michigan, believing in
the rule OF the majority demand that the United
States senate shall adopt such rules as shall
enable that body to reach vote on any question
after reasonable debate.
d. We hereby endorse the late revision Of our
national tariff laws, protecting producers, labor
ers and farmers against the ruinous competitions
of foreign productions and cheaper labor, and
especially commend those features OF the law
which provide for the protection OF farm prod.
ucts as well as manufactured articles and we
cordially approve OF the reciprocity provisions
therein contained under which important treat.
les, opening onew markets, have already been
entered into by the administration under the
magnificent leadership of James @. Blaine.
8. We ind0rse and commend the action of the
republican party In carrying out its pledges I'm
relation TO pension legislation.
g. We reaffirm the position OF the republican
party upon the subjects of temperance legisa-
ton and taxation as expressed In its last state
platform. and demand such state tax law as
shall make taxes upon nonresident lands col
lectable with promptness and certainty, that
there may be no discrimination against the resi-
dent owner

Talking Of patent medicines
You know the old prejudice.
And the doctors-somc of
them are between you and us.
They would like you to think
that what's cured thousands
won't cure you. You'd be-
lieve in patent medicines if
they didn't profess to cure
everything and so, between
the, experiments of doctors,
and the experiments of patent
medicines that are sold only
because there's money in the
stuff, you lose faith in every
hAang.
And, you can't always tell
the prescription that cures by
what you read in the papers.
SO, perhaps, there's no better
way to sell a remedy, than to
tell the truth about it, and
take the risk of its doing just
what it processes to do.

An early Greek writer on arithmetic
says that "Agamemnon was so ignorant
of the names of numbers as not to
know that he had two feet" This state
ment was, no doubt, too strong, but it
is clear that the idea of number came
slowly to the Greek mind as compared
with the idea of form.
