Great Age of Familiar Savings.

After all, the newest authors are
the oldest. In this new edition GA
miliar QuotationsO we have familiar
sayings traced away back to Greece
and Egypt. A new author by the
name Of Pilpay figures in this edition.
He was Brahmin, and he lived sew
eral centuries before Christ. Writing
in some early dialect Of Sanscrit, he
deliberately, and with the most hor-
rible heather depravity, stole some
Of the best sayings Of Herrick, Shak-
speare, Butler, Cibber, and others.
He was bold enough to appropriate
such modern sayings as what is bred
in the bone will come out Of the flesh, :"
Possession is the strongest tenure OF
the law" and so on. Hesiod, who
wrote i'm the seventh century before
Christ, was another of those antique
plagiarists. Theognis, Eschylus,
Sophocles, Euripides, Plautus, Ter
ence, and many others, were great
suppliers Of modern familiar quota
tions. Every time you say "hence
these tears" "the flower OF youth, ;"
II do not care one straw" with pres
ence Of mind" or any one Of several
other things equally familiar, you are
simply quoting Terence, who died 159
years before Christ. All the way
through he is as modern as Mr.. How
ellis. Here is one Of his sayings, and
after it is quoted nothing more need
be said: "In fine, nothing is said now
that has not been said before. "-Bos-
ton Transcript.

would have been withdrawn and its
own offered in its place, with the GER
tainty of powerful support from other
quarters. He refused TO reach out for
honors rendered across his loyalty to the
gentleman he had been commissioned to
support, and 80 kept his self-respect
and the respect of every citizen of the
United States.
"Mr. Mckinley has just been elected
governor of Ohio, the prolific mother
of Republican presidential candidates,
after an issue made directly against him
self as the representative of the present
tariff policy fastened upon the country
through the ambitious folly of Grover
Cleveland. The circumstances Of his
latest success point 10 him as inevitably
candidate Of the first rank before the
Republican National Convention to
meet in 1892. And yet as loyal parti-
san he must face the by no means tri-
fling possibility Of being called upon to
stop short of the highest honors and be
nominated for Vice President upon a
ticket headed by the Hon. James q.
Blame. 1t was Blaine who, in no I'M
friendly spirit, gave the slant to the
new tariff bill which conferred upon the
protective system the offensive and de-
fensive powers that make it to-day re-
fleet 80 amply the traditional and ex-
pectant American sentiment.
Blaine and Mckinley would be Re-
publican combination of extraordinary
power and Quality.-New York Sun.

most abbreviated form. With the
exception Of four years, when he was
official court reporter in the Eighth
Judicial district in Michigan, he has
lived in Chicago, and to-day is the
most admired man in his profession.
He is court reporter whom no law
yer, no matter how passionately
quick he may speak, no matter how
irregular or unusual the language he
utters, can disconcert, for his hand is
facile enough to cope with any tongue
and his mind runs parallel with the
brightest.

Forecast for '02.

Congressman Mills continues to hold
and express very sound views of the
political situation, says the New York
Evening Post. In an interview pub
lished this morning he says:
ITO win we must fight the enemy,
and not fight each other. If we go to
the country on the issue Of tariff reform
alone we will succeed, because we are
thoroughly united on that question. If
We press the Issue of free coinage Of
silver, in my judgment we will lose
every Eastern state and gain nothing in
the West. We will lose the presidency,
the Senate, the House, free coinage,
tariff reform, and everything, and get
Vfor our pains force bill, military us
urpation of our ballot boxes, and life
officers guarded by soldiers certifying
local government out Of the hands of
the people"
These words are as true as they are
sententious. There is only one thing to
al to them, namely, that if the Demo-
crats do put silver into their platform
next year, and get as consequence all
the plaques that Mr.. Mills predicts, the
muse of history will give them the
epitaph that was composed for another
fool, viz:
] was we'll.
wished 10 be better,
took physic,
And here lie.

last year the Republicans lost ali but II.
The calamity howl of the Alliance men
made sensible people Of Kansas tired,
and they rebuked the howl. The Kan
sas Democrat, the leading organ of the
Democratic party of the state. says:
The Republicans have achieved signal
that in scarcely county in Kansas did the
Peoples party hold its strength at the polls
yesterday. The defeat of the calamity
party was crushing and complete. IL is
doubtful if the Peoples party yesterday
carried half dozen counties in the state
where there was q contest.
Pennsylvania, Of course, has gone Re-
publican, the majority ranging from
40, 600 to $4,000.

Wearied of False Gods.

Tho Leavenworth Daily Times, the
Oldest established daily paper in Kan
sas, edited for over quarter OF a
century by Col. ID. r. Anthony, brother
of Susan b. Anthony, became an advo-
cate of the new Peoples party nearly a
year ago; to-day it renOunces that faith
and returns to the Republican party
and gives reasons for the change as fol-
lows:
The contest next year will be between
but two parties, the Republican and the
Democratic. No other party can hope to
be more than an interference in the cam
paign. A year ago 1t looked as If the PEG.
pies party would cut figure, but that
prospect has passed away. Many causes
have combined To weaken this new party,
and we have evidence that convinces us
that IN this, the leading Alliance state, its
strength is not half what it was in 1890
The next President of the United
States will be either Republican
or Democrat Voters must make
choice between the party of Lincoln and
Grant and Blaine and the party of Buchan-
an and Tammany and Cleveland, between
the party that stood u solid wall against
the destruction of the Union and the party
that stood and snarled, between the party
that has had faith in America and her abil-
ity to grow and manufacture what she
needs and the party that has believed we
must be dependent upon Europe for the
greater part of the manufactured articles
we use: that we must be the producers Of
raw material for the skill Of the old world
to fashion, between the party of progress
sion and the party of retrogresSi0n. AS
between these two no patriot can hesitate,
and we believe that next year Kansas will
again roll up the magnificent majority of
81, 600 for Blaine and Mckinley, the repre-
sentatives of reciprocity and the repre-
sentativeS of protection.

The Wrong Inference.

An ancedote told in the North Ameri-
can illustrates that a woman does not al
ways draw the right inference, though,
as Dryden says, she "can draw you to
her with a single hair"
Doctor Thompson, Archbishop of York
who recently died; suffered, while
Bishop of Gloucester, from toothache,
and resorted to narcotics to relief the
pain. One morning, after night of
suffering, he left the house to consult
the doctor. Mrs. Thompson begged him
not to allow the physician to persuade
him to take narcotic, as it affected his
brain for some hours afterward.
On his way the Bishop met the post
man, who handed him a large official
envelope. He opened it in the street
and read, to his surprise and gratifi-
cation, his appointment to the see Of
York. He hurried back to communi-
cate to his wife the exciting news.
zoe Zoe % he exclaimed. "What
do you think has happe ned? l am
archbishop of York"
There there p she rejoined.
what did 1 tell you? You've been
taking that horrid narcotic again, and
are quite out of your head ~

Satisfaction.

A little affair in which IncledOn,
the once famous singer, was involved,
shows that there is more than one
way. of settling what is called an "af-
fair of honor"
Incledon had never fought a duel,
and he never intended to fight one,
but he was an unsophisticated man,
and said and did great many queer
things out Of sheer simplicity.
On one occasion some remarks OF
his gave offense to man with whom
the singer happened to fall into COM
pany, and the offended gentleman re-
solved to have satisfaction" for his
wrongs. Accordingly he hunted up
IncledOn the next afternoon, finding
him at dinner in noted hotel.
Mr.. Incledon," said the waiter, sd
gentleman wishes to see you, sir"
SHOW him up, then," said the
singer
Sir" said the visitor, entering the
room in a towering passion, 'you have
been making free with my name in a
very improper manner, and I've come
to demand satisfaction.
After some parleying, Incledon rose,
and striking graceful attitude in
the center of the room began TO sing
"Black-cyed Susan" in his most de-
lightful style. When he had finished
the song, he said, coolly:
There, sir, that has given COM
plete satisfaction to several thousand
people, and if you want anything
more, I've only to say you're the most
unreasonable fellow ever metz"

In HIS Stocking Feet.

Dave Spellan was up In the police
court for the sixty-ffth time. The
charge was drunk and disorderly con-
duct and Dave got his usual sentence
ninety days in the house Of correction.
Jacob Drewniak was in court in his
stocking feet. He was charged with
having stolen two chickens from q coop
in the rear of S07 First Avenue. He
was fined $50 and costs.
Anton Kragmann and Bertha Radatz
had little falling out Saturday night,
and it cost Anton s. and costs. Both
were invited to a surprise party on the
West Side. Anton, it was alleged. put
his arm around Bertha's waist. Bertha
didn't like such familiarity and gave
Anton slap in the face. Anton then
pushed her down stairs, she alleged,
and ahe had him arrested.

A Democratic Opinion OF Mckinley and
the Future.

The Hon. William Mckinley is one OF
the most eminent men in the Republi-
can party. He is able, vigorous, high
minded, old enough for public honors,
and young enough for ambition to rock
his hopes with its most irresistible DOW
er. In the Republican National Con.
vention Of 1883 he became recognized
as one of his party's available states
men. But for his stalwart virtue the

how the Mckinley law, which the free
traders said would 'stife" our exports
has developed them instead.
The democratic party has endured
since Thomas Jefferson. 1t has had a
splendid history and elected presidents
| in the face of appalling difficulties. OF
| late years it elected Mr.. Tilden Presi-
dent In the most inspiring political cam
paign since the choice of Abraham Lin
coin. it has achieved innumerable tri-
umphs by the power of it's own loyal
members and of its organization and
principles. But there has been one
effort beyond its strength. 1t was pow
erless TO re-elect Grover Cleveland.
-New York Sun.
The London News, commenting on
the Board of Trade returns, says: THE
decrease of 20 per cent. in our trade
with America may fairly be attributed
to the Mckinley law. The diminution
in the demand from other countries
must be ascribed to financial depres-
sion."
John Sherman is one of the few living
American statesmen who belong to the
nation rather than to single common
wealth.-Philadelphia Ledger.
Mr.. Sherman's retirement, whether
party caucus. would be a loss to the
republic. In the event of Republican
division on the question of Mr.. Sher-
mans reelection the Democratic mi
nority in the Ohio legislature could per-
form no more patriotic or polite act
than to assist in the reelection of the
statesman whose career for forty years
has reflected luster on the common
wealth.-BrOOkiyn Eagle Dem.).
1t would be the greatest of plumbers
for Republican legislature to side
track John Sherman in favor of ex-
Gov. Foraker or anybody else. Sena-
tor Sherman has been the target at
which free silverites have directed
their heaviest batteries, laying on his
broad shoulders all responsibility for
silver demonetiZation, which they al
lege occurred as the result of legislation
proposed by Mr.. Sherman. A Repub-
lican success in Ohio which permanent
ly shelved John Sherman would, to use
an Hibernicism, be disastrous triumph
for the Republican party in its effects
upon the general prospects of the or
Boston Transcript (Ild.).
Since the passage of the Mckinley
law Americans are buying American
cutlery. For the eight months ending
May 30, $780, we imported foreign
cutlery to the value of $l,594, 422.
During the first eight months under the
new tariff we bought of foreigners
only $535. l39 worth.
This means that in this single industry
the Mckinley law has saved 81 ,000, 900
to American producers in eight months.
