As to Mir. Cleveland.

A reader of The Republic al Anthony Kas., writes that he has recently joined the Democratic party, and he wants to know if MT. Cleveland owns it.
 As the question seems to be asked in good faith, It is entitled to can did answer.
 No. MT Cleveland does not owr the Democratic party, nor is the Democratic party in anywise depend ent on Mir. Cleveland. As long as he occupies a position of usefuInes ss and influence in it, it will be through serving it. The idea that he or any other man is "Man of Destiny" is nonsense. MT. Clevelands pro- motion through the Democratic party was not due to his Destiny" but to his service to Democratic princi- pies. The Democratic party makes it's leaders. Its leaders do not make the Democratic party. There are thousands of men in the Democratic party able enough, honest enough, trustworthy enough to fill acceptably any place it can give them from that of Sheriff to that of President. Mir. Cleveland Is one of them, and that IS all he is or that he ever has been. Whatever success he has achieved in politics has heeI the success of the Democratic party, not his own. The Democratic party no more owes him eXecration for its failures. Where it owes him gratitude, It is only for such service as every Democrat who is not selfscekcr and hypocrite owes to Democracy.
 Such service MT. Cleveland has rendered, and because of it he has enjoyed the confidence of his party. But it does not depend on him for anything whatever. If the time ever comes when il is dependent on any one man when it cannot take a man from it's ranks, as it took him, and make him leader as it made Mir. Cleveland, it will no longer he the Democratic party. That time certainly has not come. It will not come in 1892.

Anniv ersary of Postage Stamps.

The postage stamp will celebrate its iifty-second anniversary on May 6 next year, It's invention is due to printer, James Chalmers of nun- dee, Scotland, who died ir 1853. England, iifty-two years ago, intro duced the new system of preparing letter postage, and, according to decree Tn December 2l, l839, is- sued the first stamps, which were to be put before the public on May 6 of the following year, as noted above. A year later they were in troduced in the United States and Switzerland and within three years had become common in Bavaria Belgium and France. One of the most important and valuable collec- tions of postage staRps and other postal device, in the world is in the German Imperial Post Office Mu. scum at Berlin.

Throw Your Gun Away,

There are plenty of wild ducks in the vicinity of Brinkley. MT. Thos, Edwards iS an electrician and the inventor of the aerial war ship. He has hit on novel way of capturing ducks, which, while it does not af- ford much sport, is very profitable, He has invented basket woven of durable wire, which closes similar to helmet, and will contain as many as fifty ducks. By means of an cleo. trc current this is sent to midair, and by magnetic automatic device, assumes a position opposite the course of the ducks. The basket cover stands suspended, but closes automatically upon the entrance of the ducks into the basket, at the same time fastening itself securely. The basket is then drawn in and the ducks taken out. The invention is creating much interest in Brinkley. Mir. Edwards has captured, during the past week, about l,400 ducks and some geese. He has pens made for them, but ships them immediate ly to avoid the expense of feeding. His invention is fortune within it. self. .-1 Ex.

This does not mean that the party may not nominate Mir. Cleveland in 1892.
 It means only that it is under no necessity whatever of doing it. Nor does it mean that it may not be de- sirable to nominate him. He is an earnest, honest and capable man, . very strong aud effective fighter in any cause in which his sympathes are enlisted, and if the Democratic parry needs him next year it will say so in its National Convention. But it is no more dependent on him than it is on Boies, or Palmer, or Noor- hees. or Gray, or Carlisle, or Mills, or any one of the hundreds of Dem ocrats who have done yeoman's service for Democracy in the ranks or in front of them.-St. Louis Re public,

DECREASED NEGOTIATIONS.

Says the New York Recorder "Protective tariff has decreased i'm portations. That means the use of a larger quantity of American products more work and steadier wages for American workers, and greater pros perity for American business. - Is that what it means? More work Perhaps more work for the same value. How does more work benefit worker if he had already ten hours work a day, especially if he is going to get lower wages with the extra work? Steadier wages. Is this a euphemism for lower wages? It is notorious that under protection wages and employment are jerky, not steady, as long as wages remain high. For wages to become steady the workers must have been so thor oughly ground down that they can not strike with any chance of success, otherwise under the protective svs- tenn steady work is an especially bold false pretense. Prosperity for business is looked at from the stand point of trusts. They are best satisfied when the people are most helpless in their power. What es- timate does the Recorder put upon the capacity of the American people to think? One would say decided ly low estimate. It says that the de crease of importations means the use of larger quantity of American products. Instead of being self evident, as this proposition ought to be before t he Recorder could pre-. sent it without shred of evidence or argument in support, it is contrary to reason. Less importation m cans less on the market and primarily higher prices. The customers have so many dollars to spend. They must buy and consume less. Sup pose Germany were now to exclude American pork. Would the result be greater consumption of German pork, or might it not be simply a smaller amount of pork consumed? :? There is of course tendency, for a time, to increase the domestic product under protection, but in most lines it will be found that that stage of protection has been passed
 The tendency now is to combination, which forbids the use of a larger quantity of the domestic product, by raising the price. There are un- considered ifs in the path of the pro- tectionist sophist and he ignores them. There are few people who can afford to have certain quantity of everything they desire no matter what the market supply and price. - Da Has News.

flush of youth" said MT. Ross but then, neither are you quite young girl"
 "Me. almost shrieked Mrs. Kip son. "Mr. Ross, what on earth arc you talking about?'
 "About you! said the widowcr. II want you to be my wife, Mrs. Kipson."
 "l-thought-it-was Kitty !'' cried Mrs. kipson. "Do you mean to say that it isn't Kitty you want 2" "What should l want of Kitty" sad MT. Ross, changing his seat to one close beside the little widow. and resolutely taking possession of her hand "Does October mate with April? Should l be happy with a child like that, as long as there was the least possible chance of winning you for my own.''
 "I never dreamed of such a thing said Mrs. Kipson, hysteri- cally. "But-but-if you really think I could make you hap py-"
 And so they became engaged then and there.
 Kitty was delighted. and kissed her stepfather- with the most cordial affection.
 "Didn't I forsee it all along:" said she. "When mother, there, was as bllnd as bat, bless her dear little heart. And now mother, what do you think about widowers getting married?'
 "Don't, Kitty" said little Mrs. Kipson, blushing just as prettily as if she were eighteen instead of forty one!
 cor widows elther?''
 Now, Kitty, that isn't fair,"
 And then Kitty deemed it a fitting opportunity to confide to her mother her own engagement to one Mir. Nicholas Allen. Under other cir cumstances, Mrs, kipson would probably have pleaded that the swain was too young or too old, too this or too that. But in the new sunshine that had streamed into her life, Mrs. Kipson saw everything couleur de rose. And she kissed Kitty, and hoped she would be happy.
 Mrs Kipson was married the first of the two. She wouldn't have con- sented, only MT. Ross suggested that It would be such fine plan to have Kitty's wedding from the Ross | house.
 "And. said Kitty, ''if anything could make me more glad than l am now, it would be seeing my dear little mother so happyl'

kitty! Kitty.run and turn the white COW out of the cloverfeld And, bless me. there are all the turkey chicks out draggling themselves in the dew. and the pony has broken his halter and is kicking up his heels in the middle of the pansy bed."
 Kitty kipson ran, first this way and then that, now scolding and now laughing in the extremity of her be- wilderment, until the COW was safe in her paddock once more, the pony tcthered in his stall, and the turkey brood restored to the sunny quiet of the farm yard. And then she came in, flushed and rosy, and resumed the beating of eggs and sugar for a cake
 Mrs. Kipson sighed. She was rather a plaintive little woman, with a fresh complexion like q girls, blue eyes, and a trim figure, which still retained its youthful curves.
 1t seems as if everything went wrong this morning" sine murmered, And it's all MT. Ross's fault"

 "Ics, it is, '" persisted Mrs. Kip son. He left the garden gate open when he went out this morning. l declare don't see what brings him here 50 much"

 "NeighborIy nonscnse," retorted her mot"cr. Il do hope, Kitty, that you're not encouraging that mant''
 "Why shouldn't l seriously en. courage that man, mother:"
 "lIe's twice as old as you are, said Mrs. Kipson, psusing in the act of buttering the pans, and wistfully gaNng at Kitty's round, rose-like face.
 "Well, he might be that, mother without being so very old, mghtn't he?"
 "Hc's a widower, resumed Mrs Kipson. And widowers have nc business to marry again"
 ''Nor widows neither, motherT' archly.
 No" snapped Mrs. Kipson "nor widows neither. Now. if you are through with the cake, Kitty, the oven is ready"
 Kitty went singing about her bak, ing that morning-and as she sung she cast glance ever and anon al the weary-looklng little woman who was mcnding the torn spots in the parlor curtains.
 "I won't get married, if have tC leave mother here all alone" " she thought. "Mother 2 life is hard enough without being deserted by her only child. If she only would like Mir. Ross a little"
 Presently old Deacon JacImar came along from his daily jaunt tc the post-oilice.
 "Hcre's q letter for you, Sister Kipson," said he, with the York p0stmark on it."
 Mrs. Kipson took the letter and held it in her hand, while she and the deacon discussed the chances of plentiful peach crop, and sighed over an epidemic which had lately broken ont in the loulI2 yards 0. the ucighhorhood, And when the old man had trudgcd slowly away she broke open the Undiscovered missive,
