He was so very pure within.
And hatched himself acherubim,
And he's fit an angels lamp to trim.
-Mugwumpian hymn to Grover
He Is n beauty, you can bet,
The Pan Electric scandals pet;
Ask Charles A. Dana, he can tell
How Garland and great Grover fell.

New orders on the Consolidated require
the free transportation OF baby carriages
and child. To make sure the child must
occupy the conveyance at the baggage
room door aud the baggage man must see
the infant. = Pawtuxet Valley Daily

That's fair; no baby, no free wagon,
and all the baggage masters can qualify
after three months experience as judges
at prize beauty baby shows.
Every man VINO honors political convic-
tion, courage and fidelity, and who shares
Mr. Cleveland's views of public questions,
will! feel certain moral enthusiasm in
promoting his election. George William
Curtis.
What are a mans views on public
questions when he poses in public as a
tariff reformer and dictates in private
so cowardly straddle to his convention
henchmen that 1t is voted down with
emphasis and derision?
It must be phenomenally unfit candi-
date for the second place who would de-
ter man from voting who was satisfied
with the candidate for the first place.
Harper's Weekly.
Personality counts for everything
when it's a case of Cleve and for moth
ing when it's a case of Steve. If it
weren't that the remark is getting trite,
the NEWS would say, Mugwumps are
queer.
The appointment of one DR.. w. ID. Crum,
postmaster of Charleston, s. c., seems
to have been one of those theatrical moves
that are sometimes made on the political
checker-board with view to conciliating
a vast number OF people OF certain class.
In making appointments in the South a
feeling of delicacy should prevail. l.-Woon-
socket Evening Call.
Towards whom? Whites are the only
people who have sensibilities 1t is
common sense and practical politics to
make appointments somewhat according
to the numerical proportions of the
classes from whom appointees may be
drawn. The blacks are numerous
enough in Charleston to claim large
recognition.
The Evening Post seems to be hurt in
ternally. bridgeport Morning News.
The Suns support of Cleveland gripes
Godkin worse than green apples.
Mr.. Clarkson thinks that the Mug
wumps will have great difficulty in sup
porting Mr.. Stevenson for the Vice Presi-
dency or any other office. That Is one OF
the smallest of the difficulties that the
present political situation presents to
them Journal.
Good for the Journal! It's getting
over its indigestion. The headsman's s
axe will lie in its stomach as light as
hot biscuit or lobster salad. It'll be
ready for Hill himself soon.

Monroe The morning. iish-horu did the
business. Newport Observer.
No, Mr.. Observer. These three were
Yankees of too lusty growth and too
healthy patriotism to be killed by 80
healthy noise.
III duties are in behalf Of labor alone
why does the Republican party insist upon
keeping them far above the margin repre-
senting the difference between wages here
and abroad f--Boston Globe.
II doesn't. Read Lansing's letters.
The Republican organs show n dispo-
sition TO make the best of bad case by
arguing that the trouble between Mr.
Carnegie aud his workmen at Homestead
arises from the fact that the iron industry
hasn't protection enough, the tariff rates
OF the Mckinley law really being re-
duction, to meet which the tenant Of
Cluny Castle must cut down wages
Providence Journal
II isn't case of argument, it's case
uf facts, rs to the reduction. Leaving
the merits Of the Carnegie dispute ont of
account, the Journal might stick TO the
truth, and the truth is lowered tariff,
whatever deductions may be drawn rs TO
consequences.
