wump claim that he is really popular
with the masses is transparent humbug
The people gave their verdict in regard
to the chronic candidate in 1888, after
they had had four years experience of
Clevelandism at Washington. That they
are of the same mind still is shown by
the result this spring in the representa-
tive industrial State of Rhode Island,
where the issue Cleveland and free
trade was again presented, only to be
decisively condemned. The country long
ago took the measure of David B. Hill
of petty, unprincipled trickster, un-
capable of rising to the level OF states
manship. If anything were needed to
intensity the popular contempt for the
politician who stole the New \ Eork Leg
islature last winter, it is found in the
late cowardly flight of Hill from the
Senate chamber in order to dodge a vote
on the silver question. Other Demo-
cratic candidates are equally lacking in
the qualities that command popular re-
lot is of Presidential size.
Aside from the fierce factional quar-
rels over the claims" of various bosses
which distract the Democracy, the record
of the party in the House of Represen-
tatives is enough to bar it out of power
for years to come. Their overwhelming
majority gave to the Democrats the ab-
solute control of the House. The country
has had a chance to see how the Demo-
cratic party would conduct national
affairs if it had full swing in all the
departments of government. No sensible
Democrat will undertake to point with
pride" to the record of his party in the
Fifty-second Congress. The action of
the Democratic majority in the House
has been characterized by recklessness
and rapacity. They have demonstrated
their malignant hostility to American
labor by passing bills to strike down
great industries and place the workers
of the United States in direct competi-
ton with foreign labor. They have
voted to degrade the currency and lessen
the purchasing power OF the working
mans dollar. While refusing to make
adequate appropriations for the navy
and Notifications to protect our great
cities, they have broken the record by
passing S50,000,000 river and harbor
bill. In power the Democracy has again
shown itself incapable, unpatriotic and
dishonest. Its own recent record fur
nishes the most powerful argument
against intrusting it with more authority.
No matter which of its third rate poll
ticians is nominated, the Democratic
party must 60 before the people as the
advocate of British free trade. The
voters of this country have shown by
indisputable evidence that they do not
want free trade. The party which has
not single leader that knows how to
lead, which has just demonstrated its
utter inability to govern, and which
must make its fight burdened with an
issue squarely opposed to intelligent
popular conviction, will be beaten as it
deserves t. be at the polls.

PUBLIC OPINION.
CORNMEAL IN EUROPE.


Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
Secretary Rusk has made commenda-
BILE progress in his efforts to dissipate
the prejudice which exists among Eu-
ropeans as to the edible qualifications
of American cornmeal. The chief
trouble has been ignorance as to the best
methods of preparation and cooking.
Cornmeal, as all Americans know, can
be made into a great variety of very
palatable dishes, and it goes without
denial that when properly cooked it is
wholesome and nourishing in whatever
form in may be served. The conditions
are a good quality of meal properly
manipulated in the kitchen.
A special agent has been travelling
through Scotland and Germany, making
exhibits of corn bread, and he has met
with remarkable success. The proof of
the pudding is the eating. When his
samples were distributed at nominal
price they were eagerly purchased and
tested. In Germany bread was baked
of one-third cornmeal and two-thirds
German rye, and loaf was sent to every
member of the reichstag for inspection.
As an indication of the progress which
is being made in breaking the crust of
prejudice, it is said that during the first
three months of 1892 there were received
at the port of Rotterdam 8, 3,203, 90 bushels
of American corn, as against 97,723
bushels for the corresponding period of
1891. The Germans are beginning to
get their eyes and mouths both open to
the advantages of this really cheap and
wholesome food product, and once they
take hold with their teeth they are not
likely to let go very soon.

Queer Stories of Lucky Miners.


Haper's Magazine for June.
A few of the many stories that art
told of miners luck will enable the
reader to understand how and why the
heads of whole communities may be
turned in mining regions. Jim Whit
latch, the discoverer of the Whitlatch.
Union mine, near Helena, led typical
Western miners life. The mine in ques-
tion is now owned in England, and has
produced s20,0O0,000 in gold. After
Jim Whitlatch had sold the property for
$l,500,000 he went to New York "to
make as much money as Vanderbilt" !"
He was a rare treat to Wall Street, which
fattened on him, and in one year let him
go with only the clothes on his back.
He returned to Montana, began "pros-
pecting" again and discovered mine
for which he got $250,000. He went to
Chicago to rival Mr.. Potter Palmer in
wealth, and returned just as he did from
New York-"fiat- strapped" as ne would
have expressed it. He made still an
other fortune, and went to San Francis
co, where he died poor man. Another
Lewis and Clarke county mine-the
Drum Lummon-provides another such
story. 1t was discovered by an Irish
immigrant named Thomas Cruise. AL
though he owned it, he could not get
sack of flour on credit. He sold it to an
English syndicate for $1,500,000. But
he remains one of the wealthy men of
Helena.
There is an ex-State Senator in Beav-
er Head county who owns very rich
mine, the ore yielding 500 to the ton
net He is California "Forty- MINER"
who came as prospector to Montana,
and since discovering his mine has lived
upon it in a peculiar way. He has no
faith in banks. He says his money is
safest in the ground. When he has
spent what money he has, he takes out
wagon-load of ore, ships it to Omaha,
sells it, and lives on the return until he
needs another wagon-load.
There is queer story concerning the
Spotted Horse Mine, in Fergus county.
1t was found by P. A. Meadow, who
sold it to Governor Hauser and A. M.
Holder for 100000 three years ago.
They paid large sum down In cash, and
the payments were to come out of the
ground. The ore was in pockets, each
of which wasfeasily exhausted. What
ever was taken out went to Meadow,
who got about 100000 Then the pur-
chasers abandoned it, on the advice of
experts, and Mr.. Meadow took hold of
it. He found the vein, over which rails
had been laid for mining car. He has
taken out $500,000, and it is still good
mine. One of these children of luck
came to Helena with money, picked out
a wife, who was then poor seamstress,
hired hotei, and invited the town to
the wedding. The amount of cham
pagne that flowed at that wedding was
fabulous, and it is said that the whole
town reeled to bed that night. !

SOME unique features were introduced
at wedding in Wisconsin recently.
Besides the maids of honor, best man,
four bridesmaids, and four ushers, one
lady acted the part of Queen Venus,
dressed in classic robes, with jeweled
crown on her head. Her part was to
bring the minister from some hidden
retreat.

A Fun-Loving Seal.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
The mother seal at the Zoo got rather
gay last Sunday afternoon, while big
crowd of ladies. gentlemen, and child
rem was standing around eagerly watch
ing the baby seal. The mother seal
would watch and see where the crowd
was thickest, slide quietly under the
water, come up close as possible to
where the crowd was, and then, with
seemingly pure fun, jump up and splash
the water in such way as to cover and
wet those standing there. And it kept
this sort of fun up all the afternoon.
No matter on which side of the tank
the crowd got, the seal would make a
quiet swim under the water, and then,
quick as lightning, show up near the
crowd, and get in its funny business.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DOES IT.
I,;&+

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY DOES IT.
Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
"Wheney er there is anything to be
done in this country, and by this country
and for this country, the Republican
party is called upon to do it," said
Permanent Chairman Mckinley in the
convention last week. And this is
simple historical truth. The great
measures that have been embodied in
the wonderful, political, constitutional
and material development of the country
are the work of the Republican party,
and to it the country looks for such
legislation just as naturally as it looks
to the Democratic party as an instru-
ment of obstruction.
