LOVE.

Mind and Heart of God were weddedl
Unto them child was givenl
All the earth was dead with darkness,
But this child appeared from heaven,
And a flood of light came with him,
Bringing peace and sweet content
Unto all whose hearts were open
To the being God had sent.
Where he makes his habitation,
There he dwelleth evermore;
Faith, the bar upon the gateway;
Hope, the seal upon the door,
Keeping him a willing captive
From his erstwhile home above.
Mighty child Of mighty parents,
Everlasting, perfect Love.

A CHANGED CONDITION.

1t has been said that no matter
which way the election is decided, the
country will find safe man in either
President Harrison or Grover Cleve-
land. So far as the two men are indi-
vidually concerned this is probably
true. But it should be remembered
that when Mr.. Cleveland was presi-
dent, he was confronted at all times
with Republican senate. which pre-
vented him and the leaders of his
party from thrusting upon the coun-
try their ruinous policy. Should Mr..
Cleveland be successful this fall, in
all probability he would carry both
branches Of congress with him and
then the country would have chance
to learn what Democratic rule is in
all it's name implies. There is no
doubt that the statement that Mr..
Cleveland is better than his party is
to a certain extent true, but the
country would find that his position
in the White House would be greatly
changed with a congress that is in
perfect harmony with him, and a
party behind both that George Will
lam Curtis described as very thirsty
and very hungry for the crumbs OF

VARIOUS OPINIONS.

St. Paul Pioneer Press: In spite OF
all the changes and differences in
alignment since then, in spite of the
open swing of the party toward free
trade, in spite of his own messages
and letters on the subject, Mr.. Cleve.
land was not unnaturally reluctant
to face the country, after his verdict
in 1S8S,on platform that should hon.
estly and directly declare for free
trade. He had instructed his repre-
sentativeS to have the convention
adopt tariff plank that would serve
all emergencies, and they were dumb
founded and dismayed when the con-
ventiOn took the bit between its
teeth and voted in favor of the Neal
free trade resolution.
New York Press: Mrs. Ingalls,, OF
St. Louis, petitions the United State
Senate to abolish the deadly cigar
cite, but in so doing she begins the
proposed reform at the wrong point.
1t is not the cigarette that needs
aboliShing SO much as the shallow
chested fellow at the unlighted end
of it.
Faribault Republican: IfMr. Cleve-
land was new man, without record,
there might be a chance that the
number who are ever ready for a
change with vague idea that it may
bring improved conditions with it,
might turn the scale in his favor; but
he will have no such advantage. The
history of his administration in the
future has been written in the past.
Minneapolis Journal: Under that
reciprocity clause our foreign COM
merce increased during the first year
of its operation about S136, 100000. 1t
has given us the lions share of the
trade of the Spanish West Indies, and
it has added the Spanish American
republics of the south continent as
factors of our foreigf commerce to-
gether with Central America, and ne
gotiations are in progress with old
Mexico. 1t hurts England. 1t is ter
rifying to her manufacturers. :.

PRESIDENT HARRISON has appoint
ed Hon. John w. Foster, of Indiana,
as Mr.. Blaine's successor as the head
of the state department. Mr.. Foster
begun his diplomatic career in 1873 as
Minister to Mexico, and in 1881 he
was transferred to Russia. A year
later he resigned, but in 1883, he was
appointed Minister to Spain, which
position he held until the advent of
the Cleveland administration. Dur
ing the last two or three years he has
acted as a diplomatic agent for the
United States in the promoting of
commercial treaties under the reci-
procity clause of the Mckinley law.
He is well informed as to diplomatic
matters, and his appointment is con-
sidered good one.

Social Life at Saratoga.

At the height of the season hops
are held at each of the large hotels
every night, while from sunrise to
sunset the sweet and melodiouS strains
of music vibrate in the air atevery turn
rendering SojOurn at this resort one
of indescribable pleasure. The near
proximity of Saratoga Springs to other
noted seaside. mountain and summer
resorts of the Eastern States, renders
the selection of this place particu-
larly fortunate one for the National
Educational Association, and in this
connection it is proper to say that
very liberal arrangements have been
made and are now being further COM
pleted, by which holders of excursion
tickets will be able to purchase, while
at Saratoga, side trip excursion tickets
to the principal summer resorts as
well as to the principal eastern cities.
Excursion tickets to SARATOGA for
this occasion will be on sale at the Of
fees of the Chicago & Grand Trunk
Railway from July 5 to July 13, 1892.
These tickets are good for return
journey on being stamped by the agent
of the terminal line at Saratoga. until
four days after the close of the gener-
al meeting, and the return limit may
be extended to September Is, 1892. if
the original purchaser deposit their
tickets with the agent of the terminal
line at Saratoga, to be called for when
return trip is to be made.
The Chicago & Grand Trunk Rail-
way offers to the members of the
National Educational Association and
visiting friends a variety of routes,
which cannot fail to be appreciated.
The passenger trains on the G. & N
w. Ry., make close connections in
Chicago with the Grand Trunk line.

THE fact that some thirty Demo
cratic state conventions this year de-
clared for the absolute free coinage of
silver without any reservation what
ever, and their actions has been en-
dorsed by a majority of that partys
Representatives in congress, while the
national convention of that party
was more guarded in it's utterance, in
that it called for the free coinage
only after suitable international ar
rangements can be made, has caused
many to wonder just what position
the Democrats intend to occupy upon
that question. It's state currency
plank, however, shows that it intends
to stand upon all sides of the finan-
cial question.

IN letter to the New York Press,
George Alfred Townsend, the we'll
known newspaper correspondent, says
he asked Henry Watterson who wrote
the plank favoring the restoration of
State bank notes by reLealing the
tax upon them. Watterson replied:
II do not know, but-it is the greatest
error in the platform. If anything
has come out of the civil war for the
benefit of everybody it is a good cur
rency. A dollar is a dollar every
where. have no sympathy with any
scheme to put it in the power of an
individual or partnership to issue
their notes and make them legal ten
der, or to make the multitude pay the
depreciation upon them. 1t is step
back to barbarism."

change it for such as you do like, at a

if that is the case, for it is safe so say
that the Democratic party will engage
in no house cleaning this year.
