The bitterness of political amin
osity is drowned in the tear OF sor-
row called up by the fresh bereave-
ment which has just cast its shad-
ow over the home of the late Secre-
tary of State. Hon. james G. Blaine,
in tho death of his son. Mr.. EN-
mons Blaine, which occurred in the
city of Chicago, Saturday, June Is.
Three children, who had reached
the full stature. and beloved sister,
have been called since the advent
of the present administration, and
all this in addition to the disap-
pointments which have resulted to
his ambitious hopes, his own brok-
en- health, and the mental worries
engendered by an unworthy son,
coupled with the weight of ;ncreas-
ing years, calls for our full measure
of sympathy.

Kanawha Gazette
The third party is now in the
field, and we wish to say a few
words to Democrats.
All mon admit that the third
party viii not be able to elect its
ticket.
Casting j, argost possible vote
the third pA could only imperil
Democracy, and if the Republican
party proiessesS ,st in the Alli-
ance men, it is b the Repub-
licans wish TO rio power on
on their backs.
If there are any Democrats who
are contemplating casting their
votes for tho I'd party ticket, we
call upon them to consider well
what they arc about to do. The
main principles for which the Ali
ance is contending are tho same as
those for which Democracy has beon
bal sl;t'g fes years.
In the Republican party there is
not one principle for which the Al
lance or third party is contcsting.
Can you benefit yourselves by
electing the Republican ticket and
defeating the Democrats?
If the Alliance decides to become
a third party in the coming cam
paign it means Il war on its own in
teres,s and possibly fatal blow to
Democracy, its best friend.
IF you have already determined
to enter the field, then you will play
into the Ands of the Republican.
party and help to elect the candi-
dates of that party when it now OPP
enly threatens the South with a
Force bill and bayonet rule.
The Republican party is now
made up of the most remarkable
combination of moneyed kings ever
united against labor and farming
interest.
Alliance men, you may cast your
arms around the pillars and tear
down the temple, but instead of de-
stroying the Philistines you will de-
stroy your friends, and yourselves.
We can stand it if you can, but
we both would be benefited by a
calm and thoughtful consideration
of the great interests now at stake.

DEMARE OF SIDE ISSUES.
Democrats Must Present Solid Front
TO the Enemv

Democrats Must Present a Solid Front
TO the Enemy
Here are some facts for the con-
sideration of those Democrats at the
south and elsewhere. who are dis
posed to embarrass counsel with
Alliance issues, third party move
ments and the like.
John l. Davenport, under Senator
Hills cross examination, has de-
clared upon oath that he was the
author of last years force bill, and
that he will bring it forward again
to secure for Republican officials
what Mr.. Lodge called for-aa bay
onet behind every ballot.
That bill was passed as a party
measure by the Republican house
last year and only beaten in the
senate by a spIendidly brilliant
combination formed by Senator
German.
The Republican president not
only favored its enactment. but was
active and urgent in its behalf.
This force bill champion is the can
didate of his party for re election to
the presidency.
Not one of the Republican leaders
whose influence is feltin the party
has had one word to say in oppo-
sition to this scheme for the control
of elections by force and fraud.
All of them favor it as the surest
method cf retaining power for their
party irrespective of the popular
will.
The platform-adopted at Mime
apolis means force bill if it means
anything. In brief, the Republican
party committed to the force bill
policy, the Republican campaign.
will be for the force bills passage,
and if the Republicans win the force
bill will become law.
With such prospect staring
them in the face it is no time for
Democrats anywhere to indulge in
disgruntlements, to potter over
secondary issues, to divide strength
with strange movements or to do.
anything else except work with
might and main for the election of
the candidates selected at Chicago.
So long as this force bill threat
hangs over the country the Demo
cratic party confronts danger that
should solidify it like a crystal
Netc York World.

The absurd controversy as to
whether the art department. of the
Worlds Fair should be held open
on Sunday or not still goes on in
the daily papers. What earthly
harm can be done by looking at
the beautiful pictures on the Sab
bath Day. Would it not be better
to offer such an opportunity for the
publication of mind, the rest of
body, and the elevation of soul, thrn
to have the crowds rushing off to
ball games, to beer gardens, or to
idIing along the streets and corners?
In many large cities the public read
ing rooms are kept open on Sun
days, for the purpose of affording
the young men the opportunity OF
improving their minds, instead OF
wasting their time in idleness which
isfull of temptations. With so many
real evils to confront and combat it
is pucfiIe business to oppose the
opening of the display of pure art
at the Worlds, or any other, expo
sition. Let the art department OF
the Worlds Fair be open on Sunday.

The Republican party has its can
didates in the field. Harrison and
Reid are simply representatives of
the party that nominated them.
They stand on the record of that
party They arc the representa-
tives of the party that has endeav-
ored to stamp the liberty of the
people under by interference with
our election laws.
The party that has maintained
war taxes in time OF peaos. Divid-
ed Offices as spoils. Gave bounties
and subsidies to favored interests.
Promoted the imitation of currency
with short dollar notes, and Wall
street reaps a harvest.
It's the party with scandalous
pension frauds. Reckless expendi-
lures of the peoples money. Scat
tering millions yearly in pensions
as political bait. It's the party
that fosters and protects the rich
manufacturer by robbing labor.
The platform of the party in
power is made up Of its record in
Office. Whatever high and fne-
sounding sentiments they adopted,
the real platform is the party's
record, and on that record Harri-
son and Reid must stand

Snubbed Even by Robbers.

1t wasn't two minutes after the
first passenger cried ontthat he had
been robbed before exclamations of
surprise and indignation were heard
from end to end of the sleeping car.
When they came to compare notes
it was found that every passenger
but one had been atouched" more
or less heavily. The exception was
tall, stoop shouldered man, whose
face betrayed a secret sorrow. He
admitted when questioned that not
a thing had been taken from him.
"It's very funny that you should
have been excepted" observed a
man who had lost 5000.
The thieves seemed to be posted
on who to let alone, added the sec.
ond victim.

"Don't it look rather queer that
you alone should be exempted"
1 can't see that it does.
We'll, the rest of us can. Can
you identify yourself?a
The man with secret sorrow
hunted for his pocketbook. He
placed it on his knee and searched
among a lot of newspaper clippings
until he found card. 1t was a
card of the vintage of two years be-
fore, but it held together as he han
ded it over and whispered a mo-
ment to his questioner.
"FeIIow citizens, said the man
who was running the investigation,

At regular semi annual intervals
since the enactment of the McKin-
ley law the wage earners in the big
protected industries have been sub.
jected to reduction in wages
And now again the workers in the
iron mills, particularly those-of the
Carnegie Company are notified that
on July first another big reduction
ranging from 10 to 40 per cent. will
be pade. The reason, and the only
one, ven is that the workingmen
cannot help themselves. The Nc
Kinley bill accomplished two things.
1t increased the tariff, and of course
the cost to the consumer OF many
articles, and it also invited foreign
panper labor to come to this eoun-
try. Having filled the country with
idle labor the manufacturers now
say to teir workmen stake less
wages, 0. lose your job. What are
they to do? The alternative is to
work for half pay or starve. So
they work for less pay, and most OF
them continue to vote the Republi-
can ticket.

Paving Debt.

The celebrated French poet,
Saint Folk, who. in spite of his large
income, was always in debt, sat one
day ina BARRIERS shop waiting to be
shaved He was lathered, when
the door opened and tradesman
entered who happened to be one of
the poets largest creditors. No
sooner did this man see Saint Folk
than he angrily demanded his
money. The poet composedIy beg
ged him MOTTO make scene.
"Won't'you wait for the money
until ] am shaved2''
Certainly" said the other, pleas
ed at the prospect.
Saint-Foix then made the barber
a witness of the agreement and i'm
mediately took a towel, wiped the
lather from his face and left the shop.
He wore beard to the end of his
days.

The currency plank in the Re-
publican national platform is about
the finest piece of literary carpen-
tering on record. Itcovers a great
deal of ground, and contains enough
compartments to accommodate each
class of currency tinkers separately,
obviating the fear of contamination
by association with each other.
You can understand it to mean that
the party intends to stand by the
existing law, with free coinage as
an ultimate result, or that it
fayors immediate free coinage, and

There is no better Republican
authority in this country than the
Chicago Tribune. In a leading edi-
torial, while the late lamented Min
neapolis Convention was in session,
it said:
1t is Mr.. BIaine's sincere belief
that the Republican party can not
re-elect President Harrison. Mr..
Blaine has repeatedly shown him
self a sagacious politician. He fore
saw what happened in the fall Of
1890, while other Republican poll
ticians did not, and he pressed his
reeiprosity policy on Congress in
the hope of averting a defeat which
was even more disastrous than he
anticipated.
No one doubts the sincerity of
Mr.. BIaine's belief, albeit the wish
may have been father to tho.
thought.
