PRAlSING DEMOCRACY WITH
LOUD ACCLAIM.
What Free Trade Would Accomplish for
the People of the United states
Some Interesting Facts for the People
to Read and Remember.

The nation is on the threshold of
another Presidential campaign. The
issues to be decided are not less mo-
mentous than those of 1883. Upon
tho verdict of the voters next Novem-
be. will depend the industrial indie
lCndeucc of the United States Re-
publican triumph means the mainte-
nance Of the protective tariff, the con-
tiuuOus development of American in
dustries and the securing of the home
market for American products. A
sweeping Democratic victory would re-
verse the nations industrial progress.
1t would put out the factory fires, stop
the whir of thousands of looms, throw
open the American market to foreigners
and place the American consumer at
the mercy Of the British manufactures.
In the contest just beginning the
work Of the foreign manufacturers will
be done by the Democratic party.
There is nothing that Great Britain
would like to see better than Demo-
;ratic success. 1t would take millions
Of dollars out of American pockets and
put them into British pockets. 1t
would make us once more commercial
dependency of Great Britain. 1t would
restore England to the industrial SUI
prcmacy of the world Nobody under
stands this better than British manu-
racturers, The following article from
an editorial in London Engineering of
April some of the leading trade journals
Of Great Britain shows how American
politics are regarded in England. In
speaking of the exports of British
manufactures to this country the article
in question says: The volume of that
export trade has decreased it is true;
The Mckinney bill was intended to
foster native industries, especially the
tin plate industry, and this it is doing,
to very satisfactory extent from the
American point of view, and just so
much rs it has stimulated American in
dustries at the expense of our
own, by just that extent it is regarded
with favor by u large majority
in the United States, no matter what
their shades of political opinion may
he. There is a somewhat general idea
in this country that the Mckinley
l'ariH bill will be repealed before long,
or at all events he so much modified
that the sting will be taken out of
those clauses most Objectionable to
British manufacturers; and it is for
ocrats for the approaching Presiden-

Irish Voters and British Interests.

The number of voters of Irish birth
or parentage is very great in New York
State. 1t is safe TO say that nine
tenths of them at least are firm adj
herents of the cause of Irish rule.
Many of them have seen with their
own eyes the evils which British mis-
government and alien landlordism
have inflicted upon Ireland As a
rule they have generously given
both moral and financial support
TO the champion of Irish national
ity across the sea. The effect Of their
action has been admitted alike in the
British press and the halls of Parlia-
nent. 1t is common saying among
Englishmen that but for American
contributions the persistent fight for
IRISH self government could not be
kept up. The abuse and sneers which
British Tory organs and orators lavish
upon Irish Americans for the aid they
have rendered to their oppressed coun-
trymen is the best evidence that this
aid has been effective.
Yet great majority of Irish Ameri-
! can citizens while sending funds over
the Atlantic to maintain the contest
against English greed and tyranny
have been fighting highlands battles
In the United States. In associating
themselves with the pro- British, free
trade Democracy, these voters have
been working for British interests fan
more effectual than il they had re-
manned in Ireland as bewers of wood
and drawers of water for the English
landlord caste The success OF the
Democratic party at the ensuing Presi-
dental election would be triumphantly
hailed by every British Tory as blow
to the industrial independence of the
United States. 1t would be greeted
with delight by every British manu-
/ teturer.

An Imnudent Claim

A New York Mugwump newspaper
makes the astounding declaration that
"the traditions of the party that now
controls the House all favor n liberal
support of the navy" 1t would be
ditiicult-even for Mugwump organ
to frame a more impudent Justification
than this. Inasmuch as the history of
the United States for the past quarter
Of a century is tolerably familiar to in
telligent American voters the folly of
such transparent attempt to de-
lude the public is evident 1t is
true that there have been some
patriotic Democrats who have
favored the creation of respect
able navy: but they have been few and
far between. Their action has been
squarely opposed by the great mass of
their party. As in the recent instance
of Senator German, they have been de-
nounCed and vilf'cd by their own party
for daring to forget that they were
Democrats and TO remember they were

A Cnrc For Mosquito HItes.

The best antidote for the bite of u
mosquito is undoubtedly ammonia
weakened with a little water or salt
and water Some people go so far as
to press the poison out of the bite with
some small metal instrument like the
point of watch key before applying
the antidOte. This prevents the pain
full swelling that sometimes oc-
ours AS in other cases, zone mans
meat is another mans poison, I"
and the same remedy will not
apply to all individuals. Some
find camphor most efiicacious and salt
and water will not avail. Ammonia,
however, seems to be generally sue
cessful as a neutralizcr of the mosquito
poison. Where there are large quanti-
ties of mosquitoes and no reason for
their appearance is apparent, it is we'll
to look about the premises for some
thing which attracts them. An I'M
covered barrel of rainwater will bring
them in hordes, and damp places and
stagnant pools are spots where they
delight to cOngregate.

HALF BOY, HALF ALLIGATOR.

A Wonderful Freak OF Nature in the
Town of Wayoross, Ga.
One OF the most curious and revolt
Ing spectscles OF deformity is to be
found OF WaycrOss, Ga, in the form
OF human alligator.
The monstrosity is a boy IA years
OF age, who NOT only bears close re-
semblanCe to saurian, but Kisses,
bellows and foams at the mouth, just
as an alligator does when angry. He
can neither talk nor walk, and is an
idiot, practically, save for the fact
that when hungry he can make known
his wants. If it is time for eating or
drinking he letH those about him know
by grooming and crawling around the
floor on his belly.
The boys body is almost entirely
covered with scoles OF delicate tex
ture. His head is long and fiat; his
eyes are round and beady and blink
with a superficial lid or film, Ike those
ola gator. His mouth is long and
wide and filled with an unusually
large number OF teeth.
His legs and arms bear a close re-
semblance to the corresponding men,
bers of an alligator, being fiat and
turned sideways from immense joints.
Altogetherh he is as near blending OF
man and reptile as was ever seen.
Water he loves and he seems to know
the presence OF it by instinct.
A few days ago the creature was
taken before the Grand Jury and ex-
amined by the jurors and several ply
sicians. The jury pronounced him
harmless and returned him to the caro-
OF his mother.
The secret OF the deformty is in the
history OF the mother some time be-
fore the birth OF the child.
She and her husband then lived in q
wild portion OF Florida. One day
they were crossing a mill dam togeth-
er when two enormous bull alligators
met in shallow water and began a ter
rible combat. She startled, turned
away and shuddered like an aspen.
Her husband compelled her to look
again. She did and seemed to have
her gaze fixed on the monsters, which
crushed each other with their wicked
jaws, rolled in the contortions OF pain
and dashed the water with their tails
into bloody foam, until one was killed
and the other crnwled out on he bank
victorious. For days and days after
ward the vision OF the battle haunted
her, even in her dreams, and the
dreadful r,sult is the monstrosity she
bore.

England is for the Democratic party
because that party is for British inter-
ests and against American interests
"Thc hopes of the Democrats" are the
hopes of the British manufacturer. The
cause of the Democrats is the cause of
Great Britain. 1t is useless for Demo
Gratis to deny this fact when the princi-
pal journals of England themselves
acknowledge it.
No words of sympathy for the Re-
publican party are found in British
newspapers. The hopes" Of that
party are not shared by British
capitalits. The voter who wants to
uggrandize aristrocratic Great Britain
vt the expense of Republican America
has no business in the Republican
ranks. The voter who wants to main
tain American labor, prosperity and
independence has no right anywhere
else. Rcpubicanism and Americanism
are Synonymous terms.

The Last Lay of the Minstrel.
The way was long, the sun was hot,
The minstrel found shady spot
And laid him down to rest awhile,
Dreaming not of human guile.

Captured, gagged and tightly bound him
Then, confirming all his fears,
Pulled the cotton from his ears,
Placed the organ by his side
Played him "Comra des'' tin he died.

A great many people contract serious
diseases in the summer time from two
causes. The most common cause is
drinking too much ice water, and the
other one is in sleeping in draught and
getting thoroughly chilled through Now
If person takes too much ice water it
congests the blood vessels of his stom-
ach, and If he sleeps in n draught he
congests the blood vessels in the skin,
and if this is done over any large amount
of surface the cold is severe, and if to a
small extent, the cold is slight. 1t will
