q Hear-a great semi-weekly paper for
the price of q weekly. It gives the
news at least half q week earlier, and
much more fully than any weekly.
Everybody should subscribe for it now,
and get the news, fresh and complete,

publican administration, as well as
after the Inauguration of Cleveland and
Stevenson. when the Democratic party

utive and Legislative Departments of

THAT large and influential element
in the Democratic party is not heartily
in favor of the Tariff Reform policy Of
its Chicago platform is not denied by
any one. and that this element is rela-
lively large among the leaders is
equally true. 1t is also a fact that the
tariff reformer of the East approaches
the subject from a different standpoint
than that occupied by his brother OF
the West. While the latter is willing
that there should be reduction of the
tariff on raw material, which is prin-
cipally his product, and will aid bring
ing this about, he is vOciferOus in his
demand for tariff reduction on manu-
featured articles-articles which he
consumes. On the other hand, the
Eastern Democrat, as a rule will view
with smiling complacency any reduc-
ton of tariff on the raw material which
he uses in his manufactures, but will
resist to the bitter end any reduction
of the tariff on their perfected product.
1t may as well be understood now, as
later on, that the people who have de-
clared in the most unequivocal manner
in favor of tariff reduction, will not
tolerate any further pandering to class
interests, either in the East or West.
~ Roforvn hoo t,ono,,o a tradition
of the Democratic party, and those who
cannot accept 1t in good faith should
find no place in its ranks. The Democ-
racy of the Nation has a very unpleas-
ant duty before it, and one which the
Democracy Of Texas has ably performed
for itself. 1t must eliminate the I'M
friends of Its household, if it expects to
live.

PeOpIe Who Throw Pennies AWAY

Have you ever picked up penny on the
street? If so, you probably have not
stopped minute to think how the copper
coin came to be lying there 1t probably
never entered your mind that the former
owner of that penny threw it away pur-
posely. Your natural conclusion after find
ing the coin was that some one had acct
dentally dropped it.
1t is fact that Chicago has many men
whose superstition takes the form of re-
garding the possession of copper coins as
unlucky. These men will never keep a
copper in their pockets if they can help
themselves, for which newsboys are pro
foundry grateful. Should n stray penny
find its way into the clothes of these super
stitious creatures it is quickly flung away
with a sigh of relief.
This habit is common among politicians,
spectators, gamblers of the ordinary kind,
actors and some business men who would
rather lose a good dinner than be among
thirteen at the table These men who
look upon the despised but useful copper
as a ''hoodoo" are the same men who carry
the left hind foot of rabbit, a horse chest
nut or other supposed charm in their vest
pocket to ward off the evil genius known
as bad luck.-Chicago Tribune.

Practical Fire ExtinCuisher.

A method has been devised for extin-
gushing fires by the effect of the fire it
self, aided by the operation of electricity.
A chemical generator of sufficient capacity
is first provided, and from this pipes are
carried into each room in the building.
Attached to the ceiling of the room is a
jar, in which acid is stored and inside Of
which cartridge is placed. An open cir
cult battery is used. The thermostat in
each room is set at any desired degree, say
at so degs In case of fire the mercury
rises to this figure and the circuit is closed
This explodes the cartridge in the jar, a
valve drops and the chemicals are precipi-
tated into the room through series Of
sprinklers.
There is also in connection with this de-
vice system of dry pipes, and if it be
found that the chemicals will not eXtin-
guish the fire, an officer on the outside Of
the building can determine by the emu
merator in which room the fire is located,
and by turning a switch can food the
room.-New York Telegram.
