An Imprernnble Candidate.

For the third time the Democracy o.
the nation summons Grover Cleveland
20 lead it against the host Of Republic
anisIn. The third time he is summoned
from private citizenship by the almost
unanimous voice Of his party, with the
approval Of hosts Of independents and
amid the applause Of patriotic citizens
generally, whose interest in good gov
ernment and honest administration is
not hedged in by party lines. It was
the desire-aye, the demand-of his
party that the brave, courageous. hon
est president who suffered defeat in the
first battle for the peoples cause should
lead them on in the final and decisive
battle. when promises Of victory are 50
abundant. The forces that compel the
nomination Of Cleveland will be potent
in the election. Grover Cleveland will
be chosen 70 the presidency by the larg-
est popular majority and by the largest
electoral vote ever given 70 any canIi-
date.-Utica Observer.

UNION. HARMONY. DEMOCRACY.

Differences of opinion and judg.
Inent in Democratic conventions are
by no means unwholesome indica-
tions, but il is hardly conceivable,
in view Of the Importance Of our
success to the country and the party.
that there should be anywhere among
Democrats any lack OF harmonious
aud active effort TO win in the cam
paign which opens before US. Ihavc
therefore no concern on that sub
ject. 1t will certainly be my con-
slant cndeavor TO deserve the sup
port OF every Democrat. - Grover
Clcycland's Card to the Public.

The Embodiment Of Denoc,srv

From the instant that Mr.. Cleveland
was declared its nominee by the chair
man Of our national Democratic conven-
ton he ceased to be a private citizen and
became the representative and embodi-
ment OF the success and the principles Of
Democracy, 80 1t is our duty as Demo
Gratis TO bury in the grave Of oblivion all
past differences, and with a unanimity
of purpose and in unbroken ranks bear
onward and TO victory the banner Of our
party. The man who seeks to revive old
differences or attempts TO create breach
in the Democratic ranks Of this or any
other state is traitor 10 his party and an
enemy TO his people. There are but two
parties known in the great contest now
upon Us. Republicanism, as represented
in Benjamin Harrison, and Democracy,
as represented in Grover Cleveland

Now il makes no difference who may
be the president whom the Republican
party elects. That party Is by It's nature
and traditions under the necessity Of
enacting and executing an election law
whose purpose and effect will be 70 put
the negroes in control Of several Of the
southern states. There will be some
unwiningness Oh the part Of patriotic
minority among the Republicans who
will revolt AZ the consequences Of such
measure. but their opposition cannot
avail. The necessity Of the situation
will suppress all such resistance. :

that Of the queen Of flowers. The ancient
Greeks and Romans revelied il roses

soldiers after the battle Of Cirrha refused
10 drink any wine that was not perfumed
with roses while Ct the regatta Of Baie,
the whole surface Of the Lucrine lake
was strewn with the flowers. Nero a.
his banquedngs showered rose-water
upon his guests from an opening in the
ceiling; and when honoring the house Of
noble with his presence, the host was
compelled 10 have his fountains playing
rose.water. In the repast itself roses
found place in the form Of rose pud.

with rose-leave.: the tyrant Dionyeius
had his couch filled with them: verus

and round his neck, and over his litter
he had thin net with rose-leaves inter.

bed Of blooms even in winter days and
nights; and when Cleopatra entertained
Antony, she had roses covering the fooJ

told that Heliogabalus supplied 20 many
at one Of his banquets that several Of his
guests were suffocated in the endsavor to
extricate themselves from the abundance

Doubtless the immoderste use Of roses by
the ancients led in after days to their be-
ing relegated to their proper sphere in
the garden; for although we have had
the wars of the roses in our modern
times. the flowers were only plucked as

Cleveland Can Carry New York

1t is almost certain that the candidate
Of the Democratic party will be elected.
II there is Democrat living who can
carry the state Of New York that man
Is Grover Cleveland. AS strong can
didate, as a safe candidate, az a popular
candidate, he was the most available
man TO be found in the ranks Of the
Democracy. One thing which the
Chicago convention has demonstrated
beyond any question is the marvellous
popularity Of Mr.. Cleveland with the
voting masses. No ex-president has
been so conspicuous figure as has Mr..
Cleveland. No statesman has been ac-

There are antelope driving gloves in the
natural rich tan hue, very velvety to the
touch, and very strong in the wear. Russia
leather gloves are now imported in black,
as well as in tan and gray colors. The de-
lightful perfume remains to the last. The
wear of I'D and suede is tolerably even
now for both day and evening, in the day
time four buttons being the most general,
and for evening entertainments, ten to
twelve bItton length Mousquetaire. Pale
canary and suede have divided the honors
with a1es of fawn and ficelle, while deli
cate silver gray and mauve have been well
worn with black evening gowns. A new
color cal ed field mouse and made striking
with black stitching furnishes a novelty in
gloves for dressy occasions.

Marie Antoinette Fichus, Beads, Etc.
The days of Marie Antoinette are to be
vividly recalled to us. Once more we are
to wear the pretty fichus, which owe their
name to that unfortunate sovereign, and
the new ones are made in chiffon, with
frillings embroidered at the edges These
and other modes make great demand for
lace, and one of the newest kinds is simu-
lation of tatting.
This 81 ason will be one in which tiny
beads viii have more than their usual
prominence, and they are applied to all
kinds of trimmings. Belts are to be worn,
especially red leather ones. High collars
are the mode. They are made in gauzes
and other materials
Gauze is also being applied to the wide
scarfs, finged at the edges, and made in
a variety of pretty colorings and combina-
tions of color, striped and spotted. The
same will be also used for sashes.
Sequips in every color, including bright
and brilliant heliotrope, form the center of
many of the tiny gallons, placed close to-
gether and overlapping.
