The Springfield Republican has at last
come to slight realization of the real
nature of the filibuster, as will be seen
by the following extract from its edito-
rial columns:
For such a crowd OF incapables and filibusters
as are now gathered in the chamber OF the ma
HAT Reed rules are none too despotic. They
do not appear to be up to Republican forms OF
government
The editor of the Springfield Republic
can might have come to this sensible
conclusion long ago had he been willing
to study little more closely the pro-
ceedings of the last Congress. There
was probably not a single important

COFFEE ECLAIRs AND ICING
Shape the cream-cake mixture with a
pastry bag, bake, cool and fill with coffee
cream. Mix cup of sugar, a generous
third of cup of flour and two slightly
beaten eggs. Pour on one pint OF hot
milk and cook in the double-boiler 10
minutes. Cool and flavor with one table,
spoonful of coffee extract.
Ice the tops with coffee icing made by
boiling together cup of sugar and three
tablespooffuls of water until it becomes
brittle when dropped in cold water.
Pour this syrup over the slightly beaten
whites of two eggs, beat well and boil
again. Set the pan in ice-water, then
add tablespoonful of coffee extract;
beat with the egg-beater until the icing
is thick and cold. Dip the eclairs in
this. This is satisfactory icing to use
on cake.
HINTS TO HoUSEKEEPERS.
1t is frequently stated that granite iron
ware cannot be mended after it lie AXIS,
and so must be thrown away. But in
fact it is quite possible to mend it in the
same way as tin, by soldering.
If you use copper tea Kettle and have
any trouble in keeping it bright yon can
remedy the matter by keeping an old
dish with sour milk and cloth in it and
washing the kettle with this every
morning, then washing in clear water,
wiping dry and it will always look new
and bright.

If the Mckinley bill has raised the
prices of the necessaries of life, as the
Democrats allege, it ought to be per-
fectly easy to specify what particular
articles have been increased in price by
it. But the Democratic allegation is
always lacking in these particulars. This
lack is significant because everybody
must see that specific allegations would
be vastly more impressive than the gen.
eral one which is made, and the only
rational explanation of it is that speclfl-
cations cannot bo given.

The principal interest in the campaign
in the Fourth district bids fair to centre
in the contest between Don A. H. Pow

nominated by the peculiar scaling down
process adopted in the convention, and
Gen. S. D. Leavitt, the victim of the
scaling process, who is running indepen-

A Man of Many MeIees.

The story that an eminent border leader and hero, Captain Hatfield, of the West Virginia line, who escaped all the bullets of the McCoys during the Tug Fork tug of war, which deluged some of our Kentucky soil with very bad article of blood several years ago, had passed in his checks during poker game in the wilds of West Virginia is indignantly denied by the friends of that gentleman. They assert that Captain Hatfield is a reformed man and nc longer exposed to the casualties of feuds and poker games. The Williamson (W. Val New Era, which makes a small circle of light in the dense darkness of the Hatfield section, refers to the re. ported death of the gallant hero and says:
 We can most emphatically deny the above, and will state that Captain Hat. field has been an invalid for the past six months from the effects of wound re. ceived when a boy. We understand that he has professed religion, and that nc poker games have been played sl his house for some time. 1t is unfair to even such men as he to circulate reports as the above without any foundation.- Louisville Courier-Journal.

near the bed, when snake gllded across the floor and disappeared under it. Then a lizard and big beetle barred her pas sage to the door Next big turtle, on its back, opened it's jaws, as she thought, viciously, and paved the air in a vain effort to get upon its feet,
 What was she doing all this time?
 Why, she was standing in the middle of the floor, every muscle paralyzel save the vocal ones. A locomotive footing for cow~to get off the track was be- hind the distance pole when Susan let loose a yell. Then there was a fall, a squirm. gurgle and all was still, while the bugs entangled themselves in Su- sans hair and the snakes kissed her cheeks with their forked tongues.
 Now was the appointed time fer the rescuer to come, and he came. He picked up the reptiles and the bugs and the rats, and unwinding them threw them like dead things upon the bed. The cause of all this trouble was Mir. Dick Trumbull a traveller for New York toy house. He had had customer in his room. and for his benefit had set the machinery inside the varmints gO- ing, and it had not run down when he escorted his visitor down stairs. Thon Susan came in. n.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

George Meredith's Son.

The marriage of George Meredith's only son to the granddaughter of Sir George Elliot is an event that touches at once the literary world and the world of society. MT. William Meredith in- herits much of the intellectual bright ness and force of his father, but none apparently of his fathers literary gifts at least do not know that he has been guilty of so much as magazine article or poem in penny newspaper.
 He has entered the less flowery but more fertile field of science, and is an electrical engineer of good promise and performance. His best man was a gen tleman, Professor Vernon Boys, F. R. S., who looks young enough to be nO- body and yet already st.nds, for his scientific requirements and discoveries, high among the baldest and most white bearded of our savants. - Black and White.

A New Geographical Fault.

At the annual meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Sci ence, Dr. G. c. Knott gave a report on earthquake phenomena in Japan.
 Among effects of the recent severe earth quake were mentioned the depression of a valley by about nineteen feet for a distance of thirty miles-thus forming a great geographical fault-together with the destruction of mills, bridges and towns, and the curving of railway line running along an embankment and bridge in the path of the earthquake. It is stated incidentally that in many earth quakes-though not in this one-oil is overturned, and by catching fire causes more damage than the earthquake itself.

A Delayed Photograph,

The most surprised man at the late Grand Army encampment at Washing. ton was Postmaster John B. Emery, of Williamsport. When MT. Emery was at the front in 1862 he had photograph taken of himself and mailed to his mother. She never received it, and the picture was long since forgotten. Dur. ing the encampment the postmaster was naturally interested in the dead letter office. There is there a collection of several thousand photographs that have failed to reach their owners, and while looking over them MT. Emery was as- tonished to find his own among them. By unwinding the necessary amount of red tape the postmaster established his claim to the photograph, and it was sent to him a few days ago. Washington Letter

Forgot His Military Duty,

Lieutenant Colonel Villiers, deputy adjutant general at Winnipeg, has been suspended by Major General Herbert for absence from his post without leave. There is something approaching a grim joke in connection with this suspension.
 The colonel, who is of rather mature years, recently married a charming young lady much his junior, and the event appears to have excited him so mnch that he went off on his honeymoon

The New Cruiser Olympia.

The new protected cruiser that is to be launched at San Francisco will be named the Olympia, after the capital of the state of Washington. It is equally capi- tai as name, for the mother of Alexan- der the Great had fearful temper when put to it, and that is about what is ex- pected of her latest namesake. San Francisco Examiner.

Rental of the Highland Deer Forests.

Some of the Scotch papers have been calling attention to the continued ab- senteeism of MT. Winans, the American lessee of the highland deer forests, His shooting territory in the north extends practically from sea to sea, and for this he pays an annual rental of over $25, 900. But for five years past neither MT. Winans himself nor any one on his be- half has over this great extent of coun- try fired a single shot

Canadla's Muskmelon.

The muskmelon season has just closed in Canada. The Montreal market shows some of the finest canteloupes raised anywhere. The wagons of the inhabit- ants stand about the Nelson monument, piled high with splendid fruit. The warm lands along the St. Lawrence produce them beautifully. They beat Hackensack.

MLnt Susan Saw.

A chambermaid at the Palmer House yesterday thought she saw snakes, bugs, turtles, scorpions, lizards and all un- canny things that creep and crIwl and bite and sting,
 In the feeting moment that elapsed between the time she saw the vile crawl ing things and the screams that she let go, string and all, she thought she saw the doors of Keeley's open to receive her, and conscious of her own abstemious- ness and antibibulousness she believed the curse had come to her from the third or fourth generation gone,
 The door had closed behind her, and she was well into the center of tbe room.

A Race of Giants in Old GauI.

In the year 1890 some human bones of enormous size, double the ordinary in fact, were found in the tmnulus of Cas- telnau (Herault), and have since been carefully examined by Professor Kiener, who. while admitting that the bones are those of very tall race, nevertheless finds them abnormal in dimensions and apparently of morbid growth. They un- doubtedly reopen the question of the giants" of antiquity, but do not furnish sufficient evidence to decide it.-London Globe,

consumers sinco 1850, on teA coffee,
dried fruits and tobacco, which are not
produced in England, while goods pro-
duced IN competition with English man
ufacturers have come in entirely free.
That is, the difference between the
American tariff system and the English
system of custom duties is that, while
both nations collect large sums ct money
on imports, the United States imposes
and e1acts duties on articles that COM
pete with American production, while
England permits home production to go
unprotected and levies duties on articles
largely of common necessity which En-
gland does not produce. Which of the
two systems is the best, ought not to be
difficult for sensible men to determine.
England has seen important industries
wane, and her once fourishing silk man
ufacture, for instance. almost entirely
disappear under the withering influences
of so-called free trade, while the United
States has witnessed an industrial de-
velopment in every direction that amazes
the world.
The Globe-republican., 1892-07-11
BOTH POLICIES POPULAR.

From the New York Tribune.
The reelection of Senator Aldrich as
a vindication of republican policy was
almost as necessary as the triumph of
Governor Mckinley was last year. He
had taken in the senate as conspicuous
part in the preparation, perfection and
passage of the tariff bill as its author
had done in the house, and at every
stage of committee revision and public
debate he had shown complete mastery
of the subject. Moreover. as the author
of the reciprocity amendment he had
opened the way for the negotiation of
the remarkable series of commercial
treaties which is, perhaps, the most i'm
portant achievement of the Harrison ad-
ministration. Senator Aldrich was thus
the recognized champion Of both pro-
lection and reciprocity, and the democ-
racy by defeating him would have dealt
both policies a staggering blow. His
reelection by large majority is prac-
tical demonstration that both policies
are popular and have received the ap-
proval of the people Of New England.
The majorities relied up for the repub-
lican candidates for congress in Oregon
have been the response of Puget Sound
to the earliest tidings of victory from
Narragansett day. It is a republican
year. The principles of protection and
reciprocity are commanding the support
of the American people.
The Globe-republican., 1892-07-11
MUST BE ONE OF TWO.

The next president of the United
States will be either republican or a
democrat. No sane man doubts that.
The Kansas peoples party will try to
elect presidential electors, and the Kan
sas democrats will assist them. The ef-
feet of this will be, if it is successful, to
draw Kansas nine electoral votes from
the republican ticket and waste them
upon ticket which cannot possibly be
elected. The benefit will all be reaped
by the democrats, whose candidates 8
chances will be improved exactly in pro-
portion as the republican strength is
weakened. The old republican alliance
men of Kansas will thus be rendering a
valuable help to party and politician
for whom they have no liking and whom
they would rejoice to see defeated.
There is but one intelligent thing for
Kansas alliance voters to do under the
circumstances, and that is to foil this
democratic scheme by placing their bal
lots where they will count for something;
or in other words, by voting the presi
dental ticket of the republican party.
1t is not only the privilege but it is the
duty of all conscientious alliance voters
to do what they can toward defeating
Cleveland and goldbugism by support
ing the party that is the democratic
party's only formidable opponent.
The Globe-republican., 1892-07-11
COULD GET SOMETHING,

Continuing Mr.. Taubeneck said: ut
now remains for Judge. Gresham to
make some positive announcement.
With him as our leader, Harrison or
Cleveland cannot carry state west of
the Mississippi. His nomination would
throw the presidential election into the
house"
Taubeneck is chairman of the national
committee of the peoples party. 1t
would be great victory for Taubeneck
to elect Cleveland by throwing the elec-
ton into the house. He could have a
postof6ce or even fat consulship.
The Globe-republican., 1892-07-11
CAMPAIGN PLANS.

From Washington letter.
At this early date there is no uncer-
tainty of the campaign plan that will be
followed by the democrats. They do
not hope to carry New York or Con-
necticut and will only make bluff at
doing so in the campaign.
With all their boasts they are likely
now, since Gray's defeat for second
place on the ticket to make no effort to
carry Indiana. They will dump all
their money, oratory and corruption
fund and world of tin plate lies and
Misrepresentation into the states of
Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Wisconsin,
Minnesota, South Dakota and the silver
producing states. They will not at
tempt to carry these states for demo-
cratic electors, but will assist the alli-
ance. By this plan they throw the elec-
tion into the house, where they can elect
Cleveland. The alliance is to be used
as the monkey to climb the fruit tree
for the benefit of the democracy. It is
certain that the democratic national
committee will dump more campaign
Doodle in Kansas this year than has
been spent in the state in all previous
elections
