the revised edition of the gilt-edged lex
aeon it is brackcted obsolete.
Only a few years ago war was made
ON the common pronunciation of the
word mamma, and in spite of usage tho
French method was carried, that is, with
the accent on the last syllable. Nov,
mother. mamma, and old-fashioncd
Una" have been set aside as common
place and various terms of endearmens
substituted. Ono OF tho wealth1est
ladies in New York has taught her two
little sons to call her precious. Dear
one" is the favorite address in the homo
of rich and distinguished politician,
and the scions of the largest estate In
the country call the young mother "iove

Charming" Dut tho most common term
of endcarment among the children OF
the upper class is sweetheart Com

TO utter tho sounds of the letters, 1t is
very pretty, especially at table or in the
nursery, when the small child has gricv-
ance or heartache. 1t is not, howevor, a
convenient or eallable name at the foot
of the stairs, when the immediate pres
enco or audience of q gentlewoman is
needed. Since the abrogation Of dear
est" which had as long a run as the
Fauntleroy sash and collar, "dearie' has
enjoyed considerable popularity, but OF
late intrenchments have been made up
on the lovers territory and all their
tender appellations appropriated.
"Sweet one" ''my own" lovely"
.'heart's-ease," ''dear heart" queen"
darling" and "sweetness" are some OF
the pet names to which loving and Iowa
bic mothers respond. And after ali
there is something very tender and very
sweet in this love-making of parents
and children, albeit the dignity implied
by plain mother" may appear to be
lacking. 1t is just possible that there
is too much severity in our relations
with the little ones, and that better,
truer, firmer friendship may accrue from
this child worship. One thing is GER
tain, that there Can be no estrangement
between the real lovers of home 1t Is
the sweet privilege of every mother to
be the idol of her daughters and the
sweetheart of her sons, and she has
only herself to- blame if the child-lover
tires of her and in the monday OF life
forgets the glory that frightened his
morning. Mother may do for the

The Democracy Losing in the south

WASHINGTON, July 13.-Po]itical
observers are watching with great
interest the changes that are going
on in the South. 1t is not over.
stating the matter to say that the
Democratic leaders are not seriously
alarmed over the detection of the
farmers. The Farmers' Alliance
and kindred organization in the
various States instead of losing
strength are gaining steadily. 1t is
true that they are moderating their
views and the mass of the farmers
are less radical in their financial
views, but they are thoroughly in
earnest and expect to keep up the
fight until they get some portion of
their demands.
IN KENTUCKY.
The situation is most alarming in
Kentucky. The farmers organiza-
ton has made deal by which they
are to support the Republican State
ticket in August in exchange for
the Republicans assisting them in
electing the Legislature next year.
The Democrats make no attempt to
conceal their alarm. The Louisville
Cu'ier-JougpaM for weeks contained
daily fulminations against the new
constitution which is to be voted on.
1t has been obliged to cease this op-
position to hold the party together
Colonel John Young Brown, the
Democratic candidate is not the
strongest man in his party, and if
the deal between farmers and Re-
publicans is carried out the combi-
nation will win.
Although few leaders of either
party are here now, they are con-
stantly dropping in and out Of the
city, particularly Democratic men,
bers-elect, who are interested in the
Speakership. They all agree that
something must be done by Con-
gress to stop this detection or the
party is done for in '92.
IN THE CARoLINAs.
In North Carolina the third party
movements is assuming alarming
proportions. The Alliance leaders
are firm and do not propose to yield
20 either party. If the Alliance
polls 10000 votes the Republicans
will carry the State in '92. Presi-
dent Polk says the Alliance will
poll 100000 votes, SO it can be

What is the Matter with Quay.

Tie New York San makes the
point that Senator Quay is no bet
ter and no worse than when he
served the great National Republi-
can victory in 1888 in his capacity
as Chairman of the organization
and commends it's consideration to
the reformers who put forth the
late address. The Sa9a also wants
to know whether the cropping out
of this opposition is due to the fact
that with the defeat of Delamater
his political fortunes have been taken
to be on the wane. There is matter
for reflection in what the San says.
When the great shout of victory
went up over the election of Gener.
al Harrison Quay was the hero of
the hour. What has he since done
to forfeit anybody's confidence or
respect ? 1t is true that he has
been the object of numerous attacks
and of serious charges, but nothing
that has been said concerning him
in any way affects his conduct sub
sequent to the Presidential election.
The offences with which he is
charged were committed some
twelve or thirteen years ago and
since that time he has been elected
State Treasurer, United States
Senator and placed at the head OF
the National organization of the
party.
When he carried the State for the
office of State Treasurer in 1885 on
q popular vote over a most repu
table opponent by over $4,000, his
public record was just as much open
to scrutiny and quite as well under
stood as now. But at that time il
did not suit the purpose of these
virtuous reformers to ventilate it.
They had no special object in killing
off Quay. Now however, they have.
The election Of Senator is coming
On and their purpose is to keep Quay
from succeeding himself. Whether
they have any particular man for
the place has not yet been developed,
but it is apparent, at least, that they
haye entered the field thus early
TO destroy Quay.
1t may be that Senator Quay will
have to retire at the end of his term.
lie has no more right to the place
than any other citizen, and the
people may demand some other rep
resentative in the Senate. But,
should Quay be retired, it will hard
ly be on the Blankenburg address.
which simply threshes over the old
straw and revives the stale charges.
If the allegations made against Quay
are potent, now, why were they not
used with all their effect before he
gained his present prominence !!
The fact is, they are simply made
to do duty in the absence of any
thing else, in an altered situation.

PHILADELPHIA, July 13 james
L. Wright, the well-known general
lecturer of the Knights of Labor
and the organizer of the original
Local Assembly No. 1, who has just
returned from the Rochester con
spiracy trials, is brimful of news re-
slating to the order. This is of more
than ordinary interest. The knights
it appears, are taking political
stand of considerable importance,
and this week they will issue a
pamphlet addressed to the working
men of the state that will cause a
sensation in labor and political
circles, indicating, as it does, a
change of base in the organization,
practically committing it to the fu-
ture support of the Republican
party.
"The desire of the Knights OF
Labor to get certain laws passed in
this state," Mr.. Wright said to-day
induced us to support candidates
pledged to ballot reform in the last
campaign. We therefore supported
Pattison and Black and those can.
didates fer the legislature who were
pledged for it. 1t was however, the
Republicans at Harrisburg who
gave us the constitutional conven-
tion that will be voted on this Fall.
son this account the report OF
our committee will be issued in
pamphlet form to the public, show
ing how, each representative and
senatorhas voted on all labor and
corporation bills. 1t is a report
that will cause great sensation"
"Does it commit the Knights oi
Labor to the Republican party?" he
was asked.
Il am not prepared to answer
that question Just at this time ]
will say that the report will show
the working people of this state
just who their friends are. Watch
for that report and draw your own
conclusions. The Knights ol
Labor are stronger now than evei
before, because the organization is
a more intelligent one than it has
ever been. 1t has a steady, health.
full growth, and if it is not stronger,
numerically speaking, than it was
ever before, it is much more power
full, owing TO the more intelligent
and steady character of its member
ship"
"ls it political orgarization ?"
"Yes in every sense of the word
it is political organization but il
is no-partisan.
Beyond his pretty plain intima-
tion of the character of the future
politics of the order, Mr.. Wright
would say nothing more of the sen.
sational pamphlet to be issued.
"You can draw your own con.
clusions from what / have said Of
the report as to our present and fu
ture political sentiments" was his
rather evasive answer to direct ques
tions concerning the details of the
forthcoming pronunciamento, which
he did not think proper to discuss
fully in advance of its official issue
Harrisburg Patriot.
This means positive victory fol
the Republican party in 1892.

TROUBLE IN THE CAMP.

There is q noise Of war ii the
camp at Raleigh, but there Is
no smoke of battle, as far al
heard from. The staid and
sober old News and Observer
and the clipper and saucy young
Chronicle are thirsting for gore,
figuratively speaking, and jam
ming the journalistic knife up
to the hilt into each other every
morning. The public printing
is the bone of contention, but
an unfortunate mistake Of the
local editor of the News and
Observer furnished the occasion
for the outbreak. The aforesaid
local editor dropped into the
railroad commission caucus, and
some remarks were made in re-
gard to intruders, which h
AYERS he didn suppose applied
to himself, as he thought that
it was a Democratic caucus.
The circumstance was made the
occasion for same resolutions,
which the Chronicle printed and
followed u with u column edi-
torial on The alleged breach of
etiquette. Then the News and
Observer waded in and made
the fur fly. The Chronicle ap.
parentiy unconscious of its
drubbing, came to the scratch
again, and gave as good as il

got, with interest. And SO the
light goes on; butnobody seems
in danger Of bodily injury.


The attempt of the Republic
can senators to worry out the
Democrats by a continuous SEES
sion did not work out as beauti-
fully as was expected. On last
Friday night, the Senate re-
manned in session, and during
twelve mortal hours, Faulkner,
of West Virginia, held the floor
against the force bill. The SER
geant-at-arms had his hands
full keeping enough senators
present to constitute a quorum.
During q momentary lull in the
proceedings, George, of Missis-
sippi, incidentally remarked
that he had an eight hours
speech to make on the force
bill, and Morgan, of Alabama,
said that it wonld take him
forty-eight hours to say what
he had in mind. After the ses-
sion had continued thirty-two
hours, the Republican leaders
saw that the scheme would not
work; so they agreed to an adj
tournament.

The Legislature has been busy
during the past week. Many
small bills Of private or local
character have been disposed Of,
and some work has been done
on important measures. Yes
terday, in joint session, Senator
Vance was reelected. The Re-
publican vote was cast for Mr..
Pritchard, of Madison county.
The Senate has passed a bill
providing for paying solicitors
a salary Of $500 instead Of fees.
The House has passed q bill inn
posing a tax Of twenty-five
cents q ton on commercial fer
tilizers. A bill that became a
law on Monday, authorizes the
governor 10 protect the oyster
interests of the state by calling
upon the military power, and
appropriates fifteen thousand
dollars for expenses. This is
an important law. 0ySterpriates
from other states are commit
ing serious depredations on the

the beds from destruction.
