THEIR ONLY HOPE.
The Blessings of Democratic Freedom
Falling Upon Dying Party.

The Blessings of Democratic Freedom
Falling Upon Dying Party.
It is pretty serious matter to under
take to raise again party which is not
only dead but rotten, and, in order to
do SO, to reverse it's policies and sus-
pend its traditions. Through all its
career the Federalist- Republican party
has been the enemy of freedom in COM
merce and industry, the party of bar
barous restriction against enlightened
liberty. 1t has held that the Govern
ment will do better for the people than
the people can do for themselves; that
the instinct of trade is a false guide
and the wisdom of the Bourbon
ruler a better. All this Mr. Blaine
has learned, if he did not always
know, is wicked and ruinous folly. He
has caught a spark from the torch of
jefferson, He is trying to turn the face
of this outworn party, at least partially,
towards the morning instead of the
everlasting night. He would set it to
undoing a part of the evil it has accom-
plished. He brought it to a dead halt
when he said of the monOpolists' last
and worst tariff that it opened no mar
ket for another bushel of graiu or
another barrel of pork. He compelled
the incorporation with the bill of the
reciprocity clause-not what ne would
have liked, but all he could get And
upon this slender authority he has pro-
ceeded, with tremendous energy, to ne
gotiate treaties exhausting in each case
the whole OF the power conferred. The
Brazilian treaty is but one of
the series. and the reclamation with
which it has been received in this
country is proof enough of the intense
longing of our people for the new mar
kets which are to give scope to their in
dustrial enterprise, with comparative
freedom to their industries, and insure
to them the enjoyment of a greater por
ton of their earnings. The advantages
of the Brazilian treaty are plain. The
advantages of some of those to follow
will probably be palmer still. With
Mexico and Spain the conventions can
hardly fail to restore natural rights of
trade between the countries of the
utmost value. A mere glance at the
figures of Cuban and American trade
will show that an Eldorado is there
and what boundless possibilities of
wealth for the people of both countries
await the removal of the cruel restric-
tons which confine their commerce.
Cuba is doubtless politically beyond our
reach, but in a commercial sense we
have every thing to gain and nothing to
lose by the most friendly relations
These be blessings of Democratic
freedom. the live Goals from the Jeffer-
sonian altar. It is not strange, not in
the least strange, that any rational at
tempt to revive and popularize the
BourbonMonopoly party must be based
upon the very principles of liberty
against which it has always and con-
sistently contended The statesman

bill and of the force bill, was based

Stanley and the missionary.

Mr.. Stanley is very interesting in
private conversation as well as in pub
lie lectures, and is quick to answe, any
question in the least connected with his
African explorations. He has high
opinion of the integrity of the natives,
and says they do not know how to lie.
He tells of a missionary who contracted
with the natives to build him house
for a certain number of brass rods
When the house was finished the mis-
sionary tried to get the natives to take
less than they had bargained for, and he
told the missionary that he must pay
just what he had agreed upon. This he
did, reluctantly, but the natives had
learned to distrust him, and he was
obliged to leave the country. -Minneap-
oils Tribune.

The rapid progress which the Senate
is making in doing the public business
since the attempt to pass the force bill
was dropped shows that there was not
the slightest necessity of gag rule"
for any other purpose than to get
through that partisan measure. An at
tempt was made to cultivate the idea
that the Senate must abolish the sys-
tenn of free discussion in order to per-
form its necessary work, but there was
never any sincerity in the claim, and
its absurdity is now apparent to every
body. The only effect of the long con-
troversy over this question is that the
Senate must work harder from now UNI
til the 4th of March than it would have
had to do if SO much valuable time had
not been wasted by the Republican
Bourbons. Y. Post.

German
Syrup

G. Gloger, Druggist, Watertown,
Wis. This is the opinion of man
who keeps drug store, sells all
medicines, comes in direct contact
with the patients and their families,
and knows better than anyone else
how remedies sell, and what true
merit they have. He hears of all
the failures and successes, and can
therefore judge: Il know of no
medicine for Coughs, Sore Throat,
or Hoarseness that had done such eff
fective work in my
coughs, family as Boschee's
so~a Tbroa+ German Syrup. Last
winter lady called
Hoarseness, at my store, who was
suffering from very
severe cold. She could hardly talk,
and told her about German Syrup
and that a few doses would give re-
lief; but she had no confidence in
paoent medicines. told her to take
a bottle, and if the results were not
satisfactory would make no charge
for it. A few days after she called
and paid for it, saying that she
would never be without it in iuture as
few doses had given her relief" O

a Sanitary Survey.

In another column of this issue We pub
lsh communication from an intelligent
citizen of Richmond making some obser-
va.ions on the character Of the water OF
Tuckahoe creek. which il one Of the tribu-
taries Of the James. and enters the river
about ten miles west of Richmond.
lie is correct in stating that Iuckahoe is
q sluggish stream. but II has been ascer-
tanned that il discharges itself once in
twenty-four hours. and while its waters
cannot be recommended as health giving
they constitute but fraction of the
volume Of supply upon which this city de-
ponds.
In 1884 the City Engineer made a survey
and examination Of the immediate sources
Of our supply and particularly of the
creeks aud branches which flow into the
James within few miles Of our western
limits To aid him in this work he had
the services Of Dr. W. ii. TAYLOR, the State
Chemist, who made numerous analyses
and reported them to the Engineer, and
these were attached to the Engineers re.
port and in that form were printed BY
order Of the City Council.
Iuckahoe creek WAS one Of the streams
tested and II was discovered that 1t was
hardly pure enough for drinking purposes.
Several othor streams nearer Richmond
were found 10 De in like condition, but
the river water proved TO be all right. II
il true that Il sample which was drawn
from the river OF Rockets analysed nearly
- well as sample drawn from the pumps
ct the Three Mile locks, but it was always
believed that the aforementioned sample
by mischance came out Of a current tina,
was altogether untouched by sewage.
The only satisfactory test that car
be made il Of water from hydran,.
Analysing water thus drawn and water
taken from Tuckshoe creek we at once
see the vast difference between them.

rage city is'sbls 10 secure and Ia far better

That our water supply is good is cmpha-

Gated case where the drinking Of Jamet.

We do not fear to discuss this whole

water will stand oil tests and because We
hope to arouse public sentiment which
will make the City Council set to work to
give us a system Of subsistence rcser-
