A Party of Promises.

The Democrats had majority in the
last house Of representatives Of more than
two-thirds. There is scarcely anything
that party with two-thirds vote in
parliamentary body cannot do. They can
absolutely overpower minority, no mat
ter how able or vigorous. This Demo
cratic majority could have accomplished
i'm its own branch of congress anything
and everything it promised to do before it
was elected. What did it promise and
offer to do?
To repeal the Mckinley tariff.
To pass free coinage bill.
To abolish reciprocity.
To repeal the sugar bounties and the
subsidies for ocean mail service.
To cut off one or more hundred millions
of dollars from the alleged excessive ap-
preparations of the "billion dollar" con-
gress.
Did it do any of these thingsf Did 1t
fulfill any of these promisesp Not one.-

visiting several points of interest in the

which were Frankfort and the new

which is still in primitive state but
shows the effect of push and energy on
every side, and if it improves rs fast in
the next ten years as it has in the last
two its citizens may well feel proud of
the result. AT Frankfort on the Lake
we saw some of the finest fruit of the
state. That place is also taking a big
boom and great orchards of peaches,
| plums, grapes, etc, are being planted
among its hills At Thompsonville we
met the old Prospect Lake correspond
