The Democrats of the parish of New
Orleans are perfectly frank and honest
with themselves aud everybody else
They have resolved In mass meeting as
sembled that they are In favor of a tariff
sumcient to pay the expenses OF an econo-
mical government, coupled with the
incidental protection OF its established
industries" This Is the kind OF Demo
Gratis that Mr.. Watterson advises TO vote
the Republican ticket.--Journal.
And the Democrats of the parish of
New Orleans will be premium idiots If
they don't take the advice.
The real in dependent press runs right
along like we'll creased machinery, while
the organs can get no foothold. Woon-
socket Reporter.
This statement may be accepted with
out reservations. But we should define
the real independent press" TO mean
those papers which have the courage Of
their opinions. Nobody is less indie
pendent than the fellow who sits hesitat-
ing on the fence, the prey of every tickle
breeze that blows.
Ask the shopping women" how much
more they have to pay from their hus-
bands earnings for dress or a sacque
than they had to pay before the McKin
ley tariff was passed.-Pawtucket Tri-
bune.
Wen, ask 'em. Do you know what
they will say? "Why, we were scared
before we were hurt two years ago.
Things were never so cheap before"
that's what the shopping women say.
Why, Great Scott! man; look ut the
bargains advertised in your own col
umns!.
Walkers record is indented on the
poiitIcal sky in letters that are ineradi-
cable.-Worcester Post.
As natural curiosity this beats a
two-headed calf. We'd like TO see that
indented sky.
The Peck case has again come up in
court IN Albany, and for the sixth time
IL has been postponed. Isn't il about
time this farce was oncludeds-Brooklyn
Times.
No, William; not until after election.
Then 1t will be concluded.
1t looks now as if we were really to
have city election 1t is TO be hoped
that 1t will run smoothly, and that we
may have free election, pure ballot, a
Just count and a generous submission to
the popular verdict.-Newport News.
There, indeed, is the danger. The
manhood of Newport is on trial, and its
liberties are at stake.
According to some of the Republican
papers more credit is due to Major Nc
kinley for irving to build Chinese wall
around America than to CHRISTOPHER
Columbus for its original discovery
Journal
Credit is to both due, but differing in
kind. Columbus was a discoverer and
Mckinley merely applied
truths. Both men had
courage, however, and both are deserv-
ing of honor.
But the fact cannot be concealed that
there is pressing and imperative need of
economy in national administration, and
hi gh policy may have to give way to abso-
Lutte necessity.-New York Press.
The Press ought not to forget that the
next Congress will not have to appear to
be lavish in order to atone for Demo
cratic niggardliness, as the present Con-
gress was obliged to.
In proportion to the population there
are mere paupers in England than in the
United States.--New York Herald.
But if the Heraid's party is allowed to
get control of the government the dis
will not be as great. There
will then be as many paupers in this
as in England, and for the same
trade.
Mr.. MacVeagh continues to hold his |
Herald,
What mighty easy time Mr.. Mac |
Veagh is having.
Mr. Cleveland ia irving hard to rro,,a
nat he isn't better than his party, and |
5he country will soon convince him that |
le isn't bigger.-New York Tribune.
No, the country can scarcely do that:
lothing would convince Cleveland that
ne is not bigger than any party.
