A Challenge.

There is not democratic editor in

who is not to-day buying the very
paper on which he prints his Mckinley

he paid before the Mckinley bill was
passed. We know of our own personal
knowledge that it 10 true of the New
York free trade dailies-one of them is

price of its paper below the price
actually paid for it before the new tar #
was enacted.

Dana on Watterson.

Our gifted and gallant friend, Col.
Henry Watterson, has touched once
more the tangles of the Star-Eyed Ones
luciferous locks, and has had the usual
shock:
We war against protection, plutocracy, am
agrarian pension monogery. And we propose
to carry the war into Africa to shake the rot.

and to make the robbers howl. The black flag
is up against corruption in high places. No dal.

this be treason, let the CALLED jade vince and
make the most Of it: for, when the battle is over
and the victory is won our withers will be found
to be as ever staunch and true, unworsted and
unwrung.
Whoop, hooray! Away with pluto
crazy. Away with ''pensionmonogery,"
whatever that may be. Shake the eta
del, make Rome and the robbers howl,
carry the war into Africa, put spurs
into the fat TANKS of the pampered
jades of Asia, pile Pelion on Ossa and
both upon the skyey top of old Olympus,
take arms against sea of trouble, eat
a crocodile, sit upon monument, grin
like the young-eyed cherubim, bite Off
your face to spite your nose, throw
pity to the dogs, make the welkin ring,
fear not painted devil, leave thy vain
bibble babble, be smart as lizards

viron with wolves the trembling lamb,

no longer wag, pour the sweet milk of
concord into hell, be as your old selves
again, and let all split. Aye, let the
pebbles on the beach FLIP the stars and
rainbows kiss the starry eyes. The
black flag is up, and the jig is not.

Mrs. Rlnine,s Health.

Mrs. James G. Blaine, Jr., has gone to
Saratoga, and will spend the remainder
of the season there. She has recovered
from the operation to which she sub
mitted two weeks ago, and her leg has
been taken out of the splints that were
used at the time. The operation was
undertaken with the idea of bringing the
leg which was so affected with rheu-
matism down into place. 1t was some
two inches shorter than it should be.
The operation was practically success
full, and Mrs Blaine3 physicians hope in
time that she will he able to walk as
well as ever. She goes to Saratoga under
the advice of her physicians. She will
be at the United States hotel and will
have her child with her.
Mrs. Blaine's rheumatic trouble was
contracted at Long Branch last summer
and this year the idea is of course to
keep her as far away from the salt water
as possible. Saratoga air is very dry
and very bracing. and Mrs. Blaine's
friends hope it will have the effect of
restoring her to her wonted health and
vigor. She looks exceedingly well and
is in excellent spirits. which in view of
her marvellous recovery from a serious
illness is scarcely to be wondered at
