DANGER OF DEFEAT.


1t looks as if the appropriation for the
worlds fair would be defeated by the mis-
cradle democratic house of representatives,
a body of men that has already disgraoed
the country, with its demagogy, drunken
ness and billion dollar appropriations.
The appropriation to the worlds fair
ought to have been made long ago. 1t is
a national undertaking; Chicago has done
all that it was contemplated she should do
in getting ready for the event; states,
cities and foreign nations haYe literally
responded to the invitation to send ex-
hibits, and only the great nation which
issued the invitation lags behind. The
money is absolutely needed to make the
worlds fair as great as it should be, and at
this late day there is no other source from
which to obtain the needed funds. All
these considerations have moved maiori-
ties OF senate and house to vote for such
an appropriation, and the will of the ma
jority should be carried out in spite of the
pestilent economists, who, by flibustering
hope to tire out congress and defeat the
grant of money.
At present, the house is in a deadlock
over the sundry civil bill. because Mr.. Hol-
man and his supporters object to the ap-
preparation Of $5,C0O,COO for the worlds
fair at Chicago. The item has passed the
senate; majority of the house has de-
clared in its favor, and the minority has
been reduced to the miserable expedient of
ilibustering to prevent vote which they
know will result in concurrence with the
senate.
There is nothing in the character of this
appropriation to justify such strenuous
opposition to the will Of the majority.
Fihbustering is excusable where sufficient
time has not been allowed to debate a
given subject, or where the proposed law,
though favored by majority, is an inva-
sion of personal or party rights. Under
such circumstances it is the right and duty
of the minority to resist by every means
at command the perpetration of a great
wrong.
But no such condition now exists, and
against the worlds fair appro-
priation is inexcusable. The members op-
posed to it will have done their full duty
when they have recorded their votes
against it, leaving the responsibility for
the appropriation with those who vote for
it. This miserable pettifogging and dema-
gogy will not help the democratic party.

MY mOTHER,s wEDDING RING.

/ remember when that circlet
Was heavy golden band,
And how chastely rich it shown upon
Her plump and pretty hand.
As boy and man, I've often seen
Pure gems, serene and rare,
Clean brightly on the same dear hand,
So tender, true and fair.
Those Jewels, like the heeting ioys
That come, and glow, and 20,
With all of Fortunes transient gifts,
And many a weighing woe,
Have gone, as go all friends and days,
With every hope or care,
But still the plain gold wedding ring
Shines true and faithful there.
Those dear old hands are trembling now
Beneath the weight of years,
And fragile, thin, has grown the band
That linked her joys and tears,
But to a loving, grateful son,
There is no blessed thing
In all the world, so holy as
His mothers wedding ring.
