The Tail Is Weak.

There is no reason to believe that Mr..
Stevenson will strengthen the ticket in
the sense of bringing to it electoral votes,
as Mr.. Gray might have done. Indiana
was Democratic in 1884, and in 1888 Har-
rison's plurality was only 2, 34S in a total
vote of 536,949. But Illinois gave 25, 1879
Republican plurality in 1884, and 90, 1876
in 1888, with total vote in the latter
year Of 747,676. The chances that the
Democrats might carry Illinois with a
popular local candidate are much less
than that they might carry Indiana by
the aid Of state favorite. Philadelphia

THE MIDNIGHT PLOT.
Tho Democratic Assault on Our Induk
trial Interests.

The Democratic Assault on Our Indu
trial Interests.
The tariff plank in the Chicago plat
form is direct assault on all the indus
trial interests of the republic. II means,
if Mr.. Cleveland is elected, free trade
as soon as he and his followers are
strong enough to get at It.
It was fitting that this meditated as
sassination of the great policy which
has made the United States the most
prosperous nation in the world should
have been planned in the darkness of
night, not in the clear sunlight of open
day. The plot will fail. The conspira-
tors will be foiled.
Governor Mckinley, quoting the great
Cardinal Manning the other evening,
said, Free trade creates two things
the world of wealth and the world of
want" The intelligent voters Of the
country will. irrespective of party, cast
their ballots next November against the
creation of q world of want" in these
United States. lyon can always" said
Mr.. Mckinley, "trust the people Of the
United States to vote for themselves,
and remember that the campaign this
year, waged under the banner of Presi-
dent Harrison, is campaign in the
United States, for the United States,
against all mankind" Mr.. Cleveland
will wage, as he waged four years ago,
a campaign in the interest Of the British
manufacturer.
The London News, referring to the
Minneapolis convention, said: "The can
didate selected will stand as the ex-
ponent of protection, which blocks the
American market against British manu-
facturers. A Republican victory in the
coming election would retard for long
time the progress Of the sound COM
mercial doctrines that underlie the CON-
mercial greatness Of. Great Britain and
alone maintain British ascendency."
Mr.. Cleveland is the ideal British candi-
date, and if his policy can be carried out
British ascendency will be the result. A
vote for him will be vote for England.

Two Records.

It is Harrison against Cleveland.
The one is backed by success at the polls.
by an administration which even his
political opponents have commended
and by progressive action on the part Of
a Republican congress. The other has
behind him defeat and the work Of q
congress whose wild acts have led many
influential Democratic papers to con-
graduate the people upon the possession
Of wise Republican president who
could be trusted to stand resolutely be-
tween the country and vicious legisla-
ton. Behind him also is divided party
in the pivotal state. Harrison won four
years ago. Today he is stronger than
then. His old opponent is weaker. Under
these conditions the issue should not be
doubtful.-Troy Times.

Fred Hillabrand, than whom a more
jolly fellow, or stronger Democrat
never lived, was home from his tours
through the country over Sunday last,
and was enjoying himself by relating
few things which he understood Lord
Byron Ritchie would promise to do for
this locality. Fred says that Governor
Ashley is pledged to use his utmost
endeavors to have the Maumee river
and the old historic Fort Meigs improv-
ed and cared for in manner becoming
their historic and commercial import
ance, and he also says that Lord Byron
Ritchie. is not so slow as he might be,
and that next Monday night when
Byron mounts the stage to enlighten
the Democracy on what they should do
at election, he will go Governor Ashley
one better and promise to dredge the
river half mile further up than Ash
ley will, and to put draw in the river
bridge at this place, put four men on
to turn the draw, with relief gang Of

he will improve Fort Meigs by making
it National park, build dock and
run steamers to that place, where the
people of Toledo and surrounding towns
can enjoy themselves on Sundays with
free beer and weiner-worst, and in
short, will make himself public bene-
factor on the wholesale plan.
All people will appreciate such
wonderful generosity on the part of
Mr.. Ritchie, but he would be going too
far; we don't want the earth. Byron is
too good. He better go to Bowling
Green and promise to have the Maui
NEE river run over that way. He
could do as much toward accomplish
ing that as he could toward getting an
appropriation for the Maumee i'm
provements. We are very sorry Byron
can't be elected to something, but we
thank a kind Providence that it isn'l

brass cartridge case and she'll are loaded to-

allowing great rapidity Of opening and clos

The recoiI Of the gun is checked by hy-
draulic cylinder in 10 inches for the 4-inch
and u inches for the 5-neh gun. and the
gun is returned TO battery by powerful
spring almost instantaneOusly. A single
man trains and eleYates the gun, both me-
lions being produced almost without effort,
and either rapidly or slowly as required.
1t is expected That smokeless powderswili

considering their rapid fire. the fatness of
their trajectories. due to lHgh muzZle velocity,
and the character of their proiectiles. the
destructive effect of the modern rapid-fire
gun can hardly be overestimated, aud it is
destined 20 play most important part in
the next naval war.
The most efficient distribution OF these
guns in the new ship designs OF our own
navy has been the subject Of careful consid-
Grafton, and plans have been worked out
for giving a maximum volume Of fire in all
directions. IT is also proposed TO protect
< these guns by thin armor, SO as TO shield
their crews from the effects Of explosive
shell, and from the fire of the smaller cali
bres.
The system Of mounting these guns was
develoued in the Bureau of Ordnance and
deserves special mention on account of its
simplicity aud hardness. The same type
of mount is used in all the Tapid-fire guns,
from the 1-pounder 10 the 6-inch. aud
works equally well with each, permitting
rapid and easy manipulation combined with
perfPct control
