WORCESTER BUCKEYE. ="

We are on hand again this year with car
load of these well-known mowers; the
farmers are fast learning that the party to
buy machines from is the one that sells every
year, and the same machine and always has
repairs for them, and not the party that
handles one machine this year and another
next, or perhaps none at all and does noe
feel under any obligation to keep repairs for
any machine. The above facts are reason
enough why they buy the Buckeye, but there
are others they are the most durable and
lightest draft machine made and warranted.

The Wildcat Money Danger

The suspension of several banks,
beth state and national. in California,
and of a private bank operated under
the statutes of Pennsylvania adds
another to the series of disastrous sob
iect lessons" which the democratic
party is inficting upon the country.
One needs only to imagine the
removal of a prohibitory tax upon
currency issued by state banks to rea-
lie how multiplied and widespread
would lave been the suffering caused
by these local suspensions if each of the
private banks had had untold quanti-
ties of its paper floating about the coun-
try as currency. As for the suspen-
sions themselves they are bnt symptoms
of the uneasiness caused by the ac-
cession of the democratic party to
power.

Special Session of Congress

The mining industries in the west are
at stapdstill. Many of the mines and
smelters have shut down and others
promise 10 do so. The action is due 10
the low price of silver, forced in a meas
ure by the action of India in closing her
minis to free coinage.
The action has no doubt been magni-
fled in its results in this country. The
opportunity has been seized upon by
the enemies of silver to depress the
price of the metal beyond production.
There is no doubt there has been
much misrepresentation of the finan-
cial situation and such misrepresenta-
ton is largely responsible for the great
distrust and lack Of confidence sown
among the people. 1t has been done
with the object of forcing the repeal Of
the Sherman act.
The unrest thus created has been
Sc led upon to force an extra session of
congress That session has been set
for August eth, by President Cleveland
The time is considerably earlier than it
was originally proposed. The change
is due entirely to the pressure OCCASION
cd by the financial uncertainty that has
been unnecessarily augmented by the
action Of India and its effect on the
price q silver.
Ii has also been stated that many free
coinors have been converted recently to
the other side II is also asserted THAT
these statesmen have changed front in
measure to the administration attitude
toward the Sherman act By the distribu.

Practical Politics.

Some western people have an idea
that thoroughly-in-earnest civil SER

must Of necessity be sort of kid-glove
and silk-stocking character in the poll.
tics of the day. But this is a mistake.
MIR. Roosevelt is thorough republican
and practical politician who has no
sympathy with the ideas of the Miss
Nancy crowd in politics. Mr.. Roosevelt
lately spoke to the graduating class of
western university upon the relation
which its members ought to bear to the
state 1t was Vigorous plea for public
spirit manifestlng itself by active par
ticipation in politics Among other
things Mr.. Roosevelt said: 1.-The man
who shrinks from the hard work of
practical politics should be as much
ashamed as the soldier who shirks SER
vice in the field or on the march be-
cause the Tork is distasteful. What if
you are roughly handled? Hold your
own and you will eventually command
respect and influence in your circle.
Sweetness and light are good things,
but the great battles of civilization are
won by striking out from the shoulder.
The sheer is not the proper attitude for
any citizen to assume toward American
politics. 1t is better to make mistakes
trying to elevate politics than to make
no mistakes through non action. There
is o practical side to politics which
must rot and cannot be ignored. To
succeed you must recognize that fact,
but in the rough and tumble struggle
do not loose sight of the lofty ideal that
is" the inspiration of the true patriot.

that you have to work with very inn

August 9Th. What it will do is quite
another thing. Its avowed object is to
repeal the Sherman act There is no
doubt the Sherman act has been much
abused and misrepresented. So sue
cessful has this course been that the
public generally probably regards its
repeal as the signal fer the return Of
confidence and larger financial ease.
Securing its repeal there may be a re-
turn of confidence that the real condi-
tions may not warrant, but which
might have beneficial effect for time
at least. Since it has been represented
so ardently the cule Is in repeal, if re-
peal comes the public may affirm the
cure effected.
Financial ills are largely Ills of faith.
When faith IS strong the conditions of
finance are good, but when confidence
is impaired the doctrine of monometal-
lists, bi-metalists or greenbackers will
not save the public from disaster.
Thus far the financial purposes of the
administration are not made clear be-
y0nd the repeal of the Sherman act.
Whether it is the intention 10 replace it
with other legislation is not known
Every effort to force its repeal will be
exhausted, with the prospects rather in
favor of success.
But if its repeal should not relieve
the situation in more than temporary
manner by causing bankers and others

fishing confidence, MIR. Cleveand's mas

Justice for no ore knows better than

court, advocate and jury
with perfect safety to himself, polite

pardons are SO frequent as to practically
make our courts mere utilities and if
appeals for clemency fail under one ad-
ministration they are soon brought
before another, and thieves and murder
ers are turned loose to again prey upon
the public and give the courts more
work. Such proceedings are childish
undignitied and selfish, and clearly tend
to encourage crime rather than to re-
strict 1t. We excel any other nation in
the world in the increase of our criminal
classes and we must soon reach a point
where something must be done to check
the lawless tendency. 1t is now a
question whether we can successfully
establish code which shall be able to
hold crime in check, and by which
criminals can be quickly and sufficiently
punished. The failure of our present
criminal code to punish crime as it
deserves has led to frequent and horri-
BILE iynchings. 1t is a serious fact that
more supposed and actual criminals are
every year put to death in this country
by the lawlessness of Judge Lynch than
are summarily punished by due process
of law. This means great danger 10
innocent persons who may be acct
dentally in the vicinity when some
hideous crime is committed. In some
of these trials and consequent hang
lngs or shootings, it is not an un
common thing for some of the leading
citizens to take an active part and
sometimes theygo about it unmasked for
they well know that the law is power
less to punish. This form of violence
exists here and there all over tie
country and it is demoralizing in the
highest degree upon the growing
generations. 1t simply and surely
tends to exalt mob law over civil law
and TO place momentary passion intlu-
enced by spirit of vengeance in the
place of justice and cool reason.

The unjustness Of these democrats is

that of the 252 offices under the district

The trouble with the democrats is that
they always want TO get the best of q

administration they want things run on

by the trouble which has invariably fol-

While he was making his first speech in
New York after his election as Speaker
he received telegram stating that one
of bis sons was dying, and he did die
before he reached his bedside. Upon
the second occasion he received tele-
graphic notice of the fatal illness of
