THE NEWS" TURN NOW

The only reason that William f. Har-
rity didn't take more Republican scalps
while he was Mr.. Cleveland's postmaster
at Philadelphia was that there were no
more to take.--N. Y. Press.
Which is the only reason that could
be expected to appeal to an ingrained
Democrat, fit to lead his party to de-
feat in an important campaign.
No American could support an Angel
for Office IL his election would tend TO
destroy his chances for gaining nveli-
hood.-East Greenwich Pendulum.
And neither Grover nor Adlai was
ever regarded as an angel.
We see the farmer listening to delu-
Nve story that fills his mind with visions
of advantage, while his pocket Is robbed
by the stealthy hand of high protection.
Grover Cleveland.
So we protectionists are robbers, are
we3 Impolite but vi gorous!
The appeal Of the locked-out workmen
at Homestead for justice should promptly
be needed by Congress. s.-Boston Globe.
Certainly, they and the people whose
peace has been broken ought TO have JUS
tice. But what has Congress to do with
it?
The suicide of an owl in New Haven last
week was strange thing.-Brookly
Eagle.
Not SO very. Probably the owl got
despondent hearing Prof. Summers free
trade lectures, and thought the country
was going to the dogs.
Would not the people of the United
States be as we'll off IL the tariff was re-
duced to a reasonable standard and they
had to contend against pauper labor In
the shape of manufactured goods as they
now are while competing against Inn
No, because foreign labor conforms to
the American standard Immediately up
on arriving here.
II am Democrat" said Mr.. Cleveland
to the Harlem Democrats. The senti-
ment il not strictly original, but 1t semed
to please the boys In that vicinity.-Bos-
ton Herald.
Grover has caught David N bathing
and has stolen his clothes, in Disraeli's
famous figure.
Mrs. Cleveland must have been highly
gratified on witnessing the magnificent
ovation rendered her husband Wednes-
day. night in New York.-Woonsocket
Call.
She wasn't. She was highly disgusted,
and just little bit frightened, not
being used to Democratic mob exhi.
bitions.
+ The PROVIDENCE NEWS does not seem
to realize that it's vapid talk about Gro
YER Cleveland's weight and its silly In
situations that he Is a man of small men,
tai capacity, hinders rather than helps
the cause Of the grand old party."-Ol
neyville Times.
This is terrible! If we thought Gro
yer man of small mental capacity,
would we have taken the trouble to
print for him Complete Guide for
country as free trade champion and
frightful example is great, wholly aside
from his mental capacity, which Is cer-
tainly respectable.
The fire fiend struck Moosup, Conn,
yesterday. The confiagration might have
been more destructive IL the town had
been arger.-Newport News.
Here's an inexcusable error of pure ig-
norance. The village is large enough for
fire costing two or three millions. AS
manufacturing centre, Newport isn't
in it with Moosup.
Senator Aldrich in his report for the
Senate Committee on Finance upon the
effect of the tariff laws upon wages and
the cost of living, says wages are raised
and the cost of living lessened. This
joke will probably go the rounds of the
bune.
1t will go the rounds certainly, since
every member of the committee, Re-
publicans and Democrats alike, say it's
true.
