The lone female is, as. q rule, treated
very ungraciously in Gotham, says. the
New York Sun. She Is looked upon
with suspicion, and. If admitted at all
to the better hotels,.is relegated usually
to sky parlors or back bedrooms, unless
she comes, armed with enough creden-.
tials to warrant admission to Bucking-
ham palace or the United States treas
ury vaults. Under the old regime per-
haps these restrictions were necessity,
because women were then carefully
guarded, usually too timid to venture
on visits to the metropolis unattended,
and the lone traveller was frequently an
undesirable guest. But within the past
decade the American woman has writ.
ten a new declaration of independence,
set thereto her hand and seal and re-
fuses to submit to the tyranny of con-.
ventionality any longer. g.

The importance of achieving victory
10 30 urgent and the disastrous conse-
quences of defeat are 30 manifest that
no chances which may aid in winning
the battle must be neglected. The de-
pressing effect upon the country and the
party which would inevitably follow a
Democratic repulse in November was
truthfully portrayed by Mr.. Cleveland
m his speech, and he emphasized the
necessity for systematic and intelligent
effort on the part of all who are enlisted
in our cause" Vigorous fighting and
brilliant campaigning alone will not win
the election. That army fights most
successfully whose forces are most COM
psctly organized and whose movements
are directed by an intrepid, sl1illful and
confident commander. The valiant SOL
diers of Democracy can safely trust the
wisdom and the courage of their leader
in this campaign.-Chicago Herald.

The wornout Ere. Trad, Haul,

The Republican tendency in tariff leg
islation has Enthusiastically been toward
excessive protection. 1t is tendency
that the Democracy desires to check.
1t will be checked without proceeding
toward the opposite extreme. The issue
is moderation against excess. The Re
publican platform is embodied in the
Mckinley bill. Our opponents must
successfully defend that measure or be
beaten. The false and outworn free
trade howl has nothing to do with the
case. Tariff reform is not free trade

An Auspicious Outlook.

The outlook for the triumph of the
Democratic candidates and Democratic
principles is indeed auspicious. In all
sections of the country nothing but good
reports are heard, and in all sections
Democrats are confident that Cleveland
will be the next president. The indie
pendent vote of the country is rallying
around our standard bearer to greater
extent even than was anticipated. In
every city, village and hamlet acquisi-
tions to the Democratic cause are almost
daily reported.-Syracuse On. " Cou-

The Beginning Of the End,


Mr.. Frick is credited with saying that
he recognizes the necessity of getting
the Carnegie works in all departments
upon basis that will enable them to
dispense with protection, and that this
is the reason for the reduction Of the
wages and the contests with the labor
organizations that have occurred during
the last year or two. II Mr.. Frick made
this remark it is creditable to his per-
ception, and his conduct toward his
Homestead workingmen is eminently
calculated to bring about the conditions
for which he claims to be preparing. It
is probable that the future historian in
writing the history of the Nineteenth
century will point to the Homestead
carnage as the beginning of the end of
protection in the United States.-St.

1.-The Proof Of the Pudding" Etc.

The Peoples party in Kansas need not
be alarmed by the announcement that
Governor Mckinley is to take part in
the campaign in that state. AS long as
the farmers of Kansas have to buy agri-
cultural implements and nails and lum-
Der and clothing, and their wives are
compelled to purchase carpets and
blankets and woolen fabrics and gloves
and tinware, all of the talking which
even as slick an orator as Mckinley can
do will not make protection popular
The quality of pudding in Kansas is al
ways determined by the sense of taste

A Very Bad Well Enough,

The administration organ puts forth
the old plea of the sleek and contented
ins in favor Of "letting well enough
alone" Whether the irony of this plea
be conscious or unconscious, it is great.

thousand necessaries of the people at
more than war rates and breeding mil

Chairman Carter is fiippantly spoken
of as ''the little wonder" and though
young is said to be a ''hustler." Uncle
Jerry Rusk is reported as saying that
there are "no flies on him." All this
would sound very well in ward politics,
but used in connection with the man
agement of a great national party it
certainly has very vulgar ring.-Bos-

High Tariff.


tA,r--"Tit willow."l
Republican friends. have you tried long enough
This tariff, high tariff, high tariff
Don't 1t look to you now like big game OF
bluff,
This tariff. high tariiI. high tariff
Can you see where it's helped you to sell or to
buyi
Is 1t truth which they've told you, or Is It lie.
And VIII you continue to vote TIL you die
For tariff, high tariff. high tariff?
The workingmen now have just opened their
To tariff. high tariff. high tariff.
Republican pledges they've learned to despise
On tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
McKinlcy's loud talk has turned out mighty
thin;
II amounts to the same as American tin;
It's vanished outside, but It's rotten within,
Like tariff, high tariff. high tariff.
Monopolists cry for protection, you know,
And tariff, high tariff, high tariff. 81
We're taxed to protect them-you all know
With tariff, high tariff. high tariff.
They urge us TO vote. and. with promises fine,
Inform US we'll have more prosperous time;
They gobble the fat and then throw us the
rind-
That's tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
The Force bill you know is another rank fraud,
With tariff, high tariff, high tariff;
How can any party such measures applaud,
With tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
It's blot on the nation such bills TO put
through,
But Republican schemes Of that sort are not
new;
Wen change the whole plot IT, you'll only pull
true
Against tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
With tariff reform we will swamp the whole
crew,
And tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
With Republican chaR honest men have got
through,
And tariff, high tariff, high tariff.
For Cleveland and Stevenson now clear the
way,
We see through the mist the bright dawning
Of day;
We see better times and we see better pay
