When Democrats arc defeated
they surrender like men. When Re
publicans lose the fight, a conspiracy to
get there by foul means is straightway
organized Utica Observer.
The picture of the g. o. p. drawn
by it's friends represents it just now as
sacrificing a humane measure to which
it stands pledged in order to plunge the
country into financial disaster. They
ought to know their own party.-De
troit Free Press.
Mr.. Mckinley Smith You fellows
may talk as much as you please; but
Republicans are going to keep right on
saving wood.
Mr.. David B. Jones-You are wise.
You'll find this is going to be pretty
cold winter. Puck.
1t seems that, finding themselves
outclassed by the Democrats in the or
deal of physical endurance, /" the Inn
perialists will try to devise new YER
sion of the gag rule. into the support Of
which they may dragoon majority OF
the Senate It would be an act OF
shrewd party politics, as well as of pa
triotic duty, for to-morrow's caucus to
abandon the programme of fraud and

He Needed q wife.

A recent wedding in England was SO
interrupted that the friend of the we'd
ded pair found special reason to con-
rratulate them when the ceremony was
at last over. All went merrily until
the bridegroom was called upon to pro-
duce the wedding-ring. In vain he felt
in his trousers pocket for the indispen-
sable trife. Nothing could be found,
except a hole through which the ring
had evidently fallen into the high boot,
which is adopted by young men of that
district. What was he to do? Take
your boot off, said the parson The
suspense and silence were painful. The
organist, at the priests bidding, struck
up a voluntary" The young man re-
moved his boot, the ring was found,
also a hole in his stocking, and the
worthy minister remarked, evidently
with more than the delay of the cere
mony in mind young man, it is time
you were married. "--san francisco Ar

INFAMOUS CONSPIRACY.
Free Government Threatened by the Force
Elections Bill.

Free Government Threatened by the Force
Elections Bill.
In many respects the desperate deter
mination to pass the force bill that has
been manifested by the leaders of
beaten and repudiated party resembles
the activity of the Southern members OF
James Buchanan's Cabinet after the
election of Lincoln. Every one of those
worthless foresaw the rebellion, and
while yet in power did what he could to
further the cause of disunion. That
the United States Government which
was turned over to Abraham Lincoln
in 1861 was capable of resisting armed
treason for a single day was due to no
fault Of these lingering official repre-
sentatives of rule that had met the
most emphatic public condemnation.
SO now, if the shameless crew at Wash
ington, representing force and fraud,
plumber and waste, shall leave the Gov
eminent where the people can reach it
as they did last fall it will not be be-
cause they have not tried to establish a
law that would perpetuate their own
power regardless of the popular will.
The new force bill has no other mo-
tive but the destruction of free gov
eminent. 1t is intended to give a Re-
publican President, surrounded by the
most capable political villains that the
earth now holds, the power to re-elect
himself and to return a Republican
monopoly Congress IN 1892. The fanat-
icism of Hoar and the swinish drunken
ness of many of his associates who have
sought to force this odious measure
through the Senate are characteristic
of so Infamous conspiracy. The time
will come when this treason to the
people will be as cdious as is the
traitorous record of Thompson, Floyd
and Cobb.
Drunken United States Senators may
depend upon it that the people are very
sober and that the shameful proceed
ings that are marking the last days OF
! Republican rule in Washington will
leave as lasting an impression upon the
| public mind as did the closing acts OF
the slave oligarchy in 1s61.-Chicagc

UNCLE WILLIAMS PICTURE.

Uncle William, last July,
Had his picture took,
a Have it done, Of course" says I,
"Just the way you look"
(All dressed up, he was, fer the
Barbecue and jubilee
Tho Old Settlers helt) So he-
Last he had 1t took.
Tide she'd CT axed and begged and plead,
Scnce he, mother went;
pnt he'd cough and shake his head
At all argument;
Mebby clear his throat and say:
whats my likeness mount to. hey,
Now, with mother gone away
From US, like she Wentr
But we'd proiick'd round, tell we
Got it iggercd down
How'd we'd git him, Lide and me,
Drivin' into town;
Dragged how well he looked, and fleshed
I'D around the face, and freshed
With the morning air; and breshed
His Coat-collar down.
All so providential Why.
Now he's dead and gone.
Picture pears so lifelike
Want to start him on
Them old tales he ust to tell
And cd talks, SO sociable,
And old songs he sung SO well
Fore his voice was sone
Face Is sad to Ltde, and theys
Sorrow in the eyes
Kisses it sometimes, and lays
1t away and cries;
I smooth down her hair, and low
He Is happy, anyhow,
Bein' there with mother now
Smile and wipe my eyes.

oDloUs IMPERIALISM.
Tho Tendency of Republican Methods to
Overthrow q Free Vote.

Overthrow Free Vote.
In the contest over the fraud and
torce election bill there is evidence of a
tendency on the part of the more con-
servative Republicans to press amend
ments to the measure calculated to
modify its odious Imperialism.
The suggestions have value as calling
the attention of the country to pro-
visions so detestable that even the
strongest Republicans hesitate to ac-
cept them. But they have another and
less agreeable significance. They
evinee the effect of the pressure Of the
foater fund machine for aid to the
project that has become the tavorite of
the Administration, because In no other
way is there reasonable prospect of
overcoming the popular majority
against the Republican party. A free
vote and fair count would mean the
election of Democratic President and
another Democratic House of. Repre-
sentatives in 1892. Trained to- reliance
on the methods of intimidation and
chicanery, the imperialistic chiefs fail
