THE FALL ELECTIONS.

The elections in the various states
in the fall preceding a presidential
election are always Of great import
ance to both political parties, but the
elections this year are more import
ant in that respect than any within
our recollection. The issues are clear
ly defined and we'll understood by
the voter. Mr.. Mckinley stands
squarely upon the protection plank,
which upholds the Mckinley tariff
law, and Mr.. Campbell is against it.
Mr.. Campbell is c%hampioning the
free coinage OF silver, while Mr.. Nc
Kinley is against it. Both are living
questions that are to be- made the
issues of 1892, unless the results OF
the coming election force n or the
other of the great political parties
from their present position. There
fore the results will be watched with
interest by the whole country.
Should the democratic party he sue
| cessful in most Of the states, notably
| Ohio and Iowa, the republican out
look for 1892 will not appear as
bright as it does now. On the othel
hand should the republicans redeem
Ohio, Iowa and Massachusetts,, thu
democrats will be forced to strad'
die, or recede from their pres
ent position on those two i'm
portant questions. This, ofcourse,
would not be so difficult for tn
democratic party, but it would be i'm
possible for the republican party
That party has never been laugh
the lesson Of straddling any question
and will not do it. 1t will stand by
its principles though defeat should b.
invited thereby, The whole country
has its eyes turned toward the cas-
and the republicans are hopeful, W.
believe, they will carry the dag. Lee
the result be as it may, the effect oil
the campaign and the issues CT 1879;
will be great. Democratic success
would make that party sanguine of
national victory and it would max
them very formidable. Their defea
will force them TO readi Just thei
party plank. Free silver will be re
tired and Mr.. Cleveland will becom
their Moses.

The St. Louis Republic never
waits to be driven along the path OF
progress by sharp competition, but
keeps so far IN the lead that compe.
tition is an impossibilIty. Its first
bold and original departure was the
publication of its weekly in five sep.
arate editions-one for Missouri, one
for Illinois, one for Texas, one for
Arkansas and Kansas, and another
for the rest of the union. Next, it
made the Weekly Republic a semi
weekly, issuing it every Tuesday and
Friday, in sections of six pages each.
Then it established q special tariff
department, edited by the Hon. w.
j.. Wilson, one of the ablest of the
democratic leaders in congress. Now,
it announces that each of these
striking and original features will
continue permanently, and, in adj
dition to all this, that two more
pages will soon be added to one issue
each week 50 as TO give subscribers
to the "Twice-a.Week" Republic
fourteen pages regularly every week
for only n dollar a year. Besides
these special attractions, which no
other paper in the country can offer,
its general merits MS a newspaper are
unequaled. Sample copies will be

1. Was a Great Invea.,on.


The st. Louis Globe Democrat tells
about cranky invention Of a westerner
who thought that horses are worked
too hard. It was a carriage that ran
on four very high wheels. The driver
sat in front of the passengers ON each
side, like those on an Irish jaunting
car. The horse was underneath the
affair, and wiggled along with only his
head sticking out like a turtles. The
beauty of the arrangement was a 4-foot
belly band that went underneath the
horse, and when the concern started
down the hill the driver turned crank
and lifted the horse of the ground, and
the whole business, horse and all,
rolled ON together till level road was
reached, when the crank was again
turned, the horse lowered till his feet
reached the ground, when business was
resumed In the old way.
Tho advantage of the invention was
that It enabled the horse to ride down
hill; tho disadvantage was that it
could not foresee and follow the wind
ings of the road. There is no knowing
how much might have come of it
had 1t not happened that the machine
ran off the track one day when going
down winding hill. ran into gulch,
killed the horse, smashed the whole
continuance to pieces and hurt the man
so badly that when he got well he de-
clined to undertake the constrnction(

II think that man has IN under
standing with tho walters" said a little
man with big steak in front of him,
as two men at the next table got up
and left the restaurant.
"What do you mean p asked his COM
panion.
Notice the big man at the head of
the tableW
''Yes,"
"Notice he didn't pay the check2 OF
course you did. He never does, and
I'll tell you why. He comes in with a
companion every night-seldom the
same man. He lets the other man
order first generally, and then takes
the same. When the order is served
the waiter invariably asks: Zone check
or two sirf' and he invariably ad-
dresses the query to the big mans
companion.
Now the result of this great Ameri-
can treating Is that one hesitates to say
Two under those circumstances, al
though there was no expectation of q
double check when he came in. But
the remark Is addressed to him and he
has to answer, especially as the big
man becomes deeply interested in a
newspaper about that time. Ninety
nine men out of hundred are afraid
of appearing niggardly and will answer
'One check

many times, and, as say, have never
seen the big man pay check, nor have
ever heard the question, One check

Children Cry for Pitchers Castorla.
Local English.

A recent writer upon English man
ners and customs calls attention to
some of the different names of employ
ments and callings in England and in
this country. lie mentions among
these that what we call a lumber
dealer is there known as timber
merchant. 1t may be remarked that
the word dealer is in frequent use
only in America.
The other word, timber, suggests q
great variety of usage. Timber, in
New England, is applied to trees
large enough to cut logs for the mill,
to the logs entire, and TO the large
single sticks into which they are
hewn, or sawn.
When the logs are cut into boards,
planks, joists, and so on, they form
lumber. In the West, timber is gen.
orally stand trees, and it includes all
trees, large and small, without refer
ence to their fitness for the mill.
The cutting and hauling this timber
is numbering; but in large part of
New England it is logging. What
we call joist is elsewhere known as
scantling, and what we call boards or
planks, the English call deals.
In this country person who splits
out shingles in called shingle-weaver.
In England shingles are not made in
this way; but lath are regularly riven,
and maker of them is called lath-
render.
Work-pecple like to specialize what
ever they do. They are always ready
to borrow words from the professions
to describe their work. The writer
was once amused to hear an English
puddler employed in an Ohio foundry
explain how the ore was reduced. In
stead of using limestone as fiux, he
said, they mixed with the native ore
a small percentage of Missouri and
Lake Superior ores; and 'these," as
he expressed it, Operated to physic
the native ore."

OF all games In which have played,
tho most remarkable for sudden re-
vulsion OF feeling was one between
Harvard and Yale played upon Jarvis
Field in June of 1889.
Yale went first TO the bat but failed
to score. Harvard followed suit. In
the second inning q muff by the Har-
ward first baseman, followed by the
Yale catcher's making two bagger''
hit, gave Yale run. Our happiness
was shortliyed, however, for In the
third inning Harvard made two runs,
followed by another in the fifth. Yale
scored one in the seventh, but Har-
ward matched it with one in the eighth.
so that we began the ninth with Har-
ward four to Yale's two. l think we
had not the least hope OF winning.
l remember feeling, as we came In
for the ninth inning, that this defeat
would settle our chances of the cham
pionship, and thinking of the crowd Of
boys who, as I knew, were sitting on
the Yale fence awaiting the news,
would hear 1t and dwindle away In ST.
lence to their rooms. Our first man
at the bat in the ninth inning went
out quickly, and our catcher followed,
with the same result. Wilcox, the last
man on our batting list, came to the bat
Two men out, two runs to reach even
tie, and three to wini noticed that
the crowd was leaving the field and
that the young rascal who had charge
of our bats was putting them into the
bag.
Here you'll stop that" cried I, for
we all were superstitious about pack
ing up the bats before the last man
man was out. Besides, was the next
batter, If Wilcox should by any chance
reach his base, and wanted my bat.
''Two strikes" heard the umpire call,
and then at the next ball, to my great
Joy, Take your base" and Wilcox
trotted away to first. I remember
thinking how much would give for a
home run, and then there came good
ball just off my shoulder and hit 1t
with ali my power. It went between
third and shortstop on a swift drive,
but bounded high, as l afterward
learned, for was meanwhile running
ut my best speed toward first.
When l was fifteen feet from that
base saw the baseman give q tremen-
dous jump up into the air and i knew
somebody had made an overthrow.
How ran thenl for every base I
passed knew was one nearer to tying
the score. AS came dashing past
third base ] saw Wilcox just ahead of
me, and we crossed the home plate
within three feet of each other. Our
next batter took his base on poor pitch
ing and stole second; the next followed
with a base hit past second, which
brought the first runner home with the
winning run. We then went into the
field, put three Harvard men cut, and
won the game-when probably half the
1000 spectators were already on their
way home with the victory for Har-
ward in their minds. Walter Camp in
st. Nicholas.
