done by both democrats and republicans
tomorrow, but the latter will be apt to do
the most, as there seems to be more dissat-
isfaction with their ticket than there is with
the democratic. Mr.. Jackson H. Ralston,
the populist candidate for the state senate,
will lead his ticket. Indications are that a

Revolution
In Eating

has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discovery Of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
. comfort from lard-cooked food;
while tits we'll known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstain entire
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, CorToLENE is of
peculiar value, widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CorToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t combines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CorroLENE is worthy of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, Of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

A NIAGARA ADVENTURE.

The Involuntary swim of . Large New
foundlard Near the Great Cataract
Not long since a very exciting ad-
venture took place at Niagara. As sev-
eral tourists were walking along the
shore of Luna island, above the cat-i
aract, they saw large Newfoundland;
dog leaning from rock, and engaged.
in tapping water from the rushing curl
rent. The rock was slippery and the;
dog not very nimb1e; and presently his.
feet slipped, and he fell headlong into;
the water.
In moment, says the Youths Com
panion, the dog was drawn out into the:
current, and well on his way toward
the cataract. Even so good a swimmer
as the average Newfoundland dog could
make no headway againstsuch stream
The bystanders, Mortified. pressed to-
ward the falls to see what should be-
come of the unfortunate dog. To their
great surprise they saw him landed BY
the current, and with great force, upon,
a rock near the Cave of the Winds
From this position he was rescued,
with much courage, by four tourists.
He was found to be bleeding heavily,
as the result of his collisions with the
rocks, and probably he would have died
soon if he had not been carried to q vet!
mary surgeon, who stopped the bleed
ing and bound up the wounds
Several hours later he returned toI
the shore, lmping, but wagging his tad
very cheerfully. His tail was about the
only part of his body which had escaped;
injury, and he appeared to be deter
mined to use it to the best advantage.
Since this adventure the Newfound-'
land has been quite hero at Niagara
He still haunts the neighborhood of the
precipice, but he is no longer seen try
ing to drink out of the river.

Mayor Browns efforts to muzzle
the RECORD is only another evil
dence of how a certain class of
rich men, who pose as philanthro-
phists, would throttle the poor if
they could. His political friends

SINGULAR TRADITION.
The Bella Coola story OF the Noachian
Deluge.

The Bella Coola Story OF the Noachian
Deluge.
All the Northern Coast Indians, says
the Victoria (B. C.) Colonist, have a
tradition of food which destroyed all
mankind except pair from which the
earth was again peopled- Each tribe
gives the story a local eoloring, but the
plot of the legend is much the same.
The Bella Coola tradition is as follows:
The Creator of the Universe, Mes-mes-
sa-la-nik, had great difficulty in the ar
rangement of the land and water. The
earth persisted in sinking out of sight.
At last he hit upon plan which worked
very well. Taking long line of twist
ed walrus hide he tied it around the dry
land and fastened the other end to the
corner OF the moon. Everything worked
well for a long time, but at last the
spirit became very much offended at
the action of mankind, and in fit Of
anger one day seized his great stone
knife and with a mighty hack severed
the rope of twisted skim Immediately
the land began to sink into the sea-
The angry waves rushed in torrents up
the valleys, and IN short time nothing
was visible except the peak of very
high mountain.
All mankind perished in the whelm-
ing waters with the exception of two,
a man and his wife. who were ont fish
ing IN a big canoe These two succeed
ed in reaching the top of the mountain
and proceeded to make themselves at
home. Here they remained for some
time until the anger of Mes-mes-sa-
la-nik cooled. which resulted in his
fishing up the severed throng and again
fastening it to the moon. From this
pair thus saved the earth was again
populated. In later years an Indian
succeeded in reaching the top of this
mountain, and there saw the remains
of the fishing gear and implements used
by the Bella Coola Noah.

Desperation Run Mad.

False statement and perversion
of facts will not deceive the peo-
pie as the true issue to be deter
mined at the Primaries on We'd
nesdav evening March 2a. 1893.
Extravaganza, and a disregard
of the interests of the people have
characterized the action of few
men in power whose sole aim is
to retain power and position that
they may carry on their work unex-
posed and undetected. Men who are
certain Of their position and hav-
ing right on their side need not,
in self defence, resort to methods
intended to divert the attention Of
the people from their acts and raise
questions having no bearing upon
the issue thatis of vital Importance
to every taxpayer in this City.
Don't be deceived by election
day promises. They are easily
made and quickly broken. Acts
speak louder than words. The
record of the past two years is
history and cannot be wiped from
the memory of the taxpayers
Don't vote for two-more years of
the same rule if you value your
prosperity.

Why We Advocate Mr.. Slater.

This paper advocates the eleva-
ton of Jno: ]. Slater to the posi-
ticn of Mayor of this City after
carefully Investigating the wants
Of the tax payers, believing it to be
the duty of the press to serve the
public regardless of private opin-
ion. A person having served one
term is only entitled to another
when he has proved himself for
the people and careful of their in
terests, not otherwise.
Those who have been running
things to suit themselves instead
of the tax payers are in favor of
our present Mayor, but Mr.. S. does
not rely upon any clique or faction;
he is in league with none and leaves
the public to decide the issue.
Our present want seems to be a
man who is under no personal
pressure; one who can say No, when
the occasion demands it.

Liabilities over Assets. .$176, ,o36. 81
In two years our liabilities over
assets have jumped from $o3,I55.3o
to $I76,o36.54, an increase of
$82, 88I.24. The current expenses
Of the City are in excess of receipts
and as consequence the City had
notes outstanding Dec. 81, 1892
which had been discounted amount
ing to $Io5,
Ordinarily, the inflow of taxes
during November and December
very materially reduces floating
indebtness by retiring notes as
they mature.
Taxpayers need not rely on
statements put forth to serve per-
sonal ends. Personal investigation
cannot fail to convince that un-
checked extravaganza will result
in tax rate that will be oppress-
i've.
No statement can be made that
can truthfully disprove the asser-
ton that the City is now in a worse
condition, financially, than it
was two years ago.

"Passaic Opinion" After a
Death of Many Months, Re-
Surrected to Publish Mat
ter the "Daily News"
Dare Not Father.

Under the pretense of taking no
part in the political contest de-
funct sheet is galvanized into life
and run off on the presses of the
Daily Nesos to spread broadcast
matter intended to create support
for the "ring" that now has its
grip on the City Government
Why is it that City officials are so
active to retain power?
Look at the list of those who are
exerting themselves to defeat the
will of the people:
The President of the City Council,
B. w. Spencer.
The City Treasurer,
Harry Meyers.
The City Counsel,
Geo. P. Rust.
The City Clerk,
r. B. Tindall.
The Poor Master and Assessor of
the Fourth Ward,
F. c. Cogan.
Men in subordinate positions
have had it intimated to them that
they must give their aid and in
fuence to those now in power or
their positions would be taken from
them. Is this manly? Is it hon
orable to coerce employees of the
City into acting contrary to their
convictions /?
This is the taxpayers fight
against those who have wasted the
public funds, and the people will
rise in their might and speak in no
uncertain sound at the Primaries
on Wednesday night, March 27d,
that it is their determination that
"Ring" methods shall cease, and
that they, the people, intend to
have an inning.
The election of John ]. Slater to
the Mayoralty would mean that
questionable methods would cease.
His public career is a guarantee
that if elected he would not dis
appoint the people.
