Mrs. Mary S. Lease, the Populist
leader, is President of the Kansas Board
of Charities. In her official position she
has just voted to retain in Office the Su-
perintendent of the Soldiers Orphans
Home, who is a Republican. "He was a
member of the famous Bucktail Regi-
ment," she says, land stood beside and
cared for my two brothers, who died on
the battlefield. He is Republican, but
for that deed he deserves my everlasting
love and support" Mrs. Leases graft
tude is natural and proper enough, but
the Kansas Populists are furious and can
find nothing too bitter to say about her.
The narrow, merciless partisanship of
the Populist movement in the West is
well illustrated in this episode. 1t is no
wonder that Republicans and Democrats
have forgotten their old differences to
make common cause against it,

A young lady of seventeen summers,
highly educated, refined and of prepos-

acquaintance of some nice young man,
whom she would advise if troubled with
dyspepsia, to use that great blood puri-
fer. Sulphur Bitters.

1t is restraint which is honorable to
man, not his liberty; and what is more
it is restraint which is honorable even in
the lower animals. A butterfly is more
free than the bee; but you honor the bee
more, just because it is subject to GER
tain laws which fit it for ordinary func-
tions in bee society.

Every farmer should learn to trust
himself in economical and political mat
ters. There is just as much sense in
asking lawyer when TO plant corn, as
asking him whom to vote for. The farm
er has learned certain things about rails
ing corn and he asks nobody's advice
about the business. He trusts his own
judgment as to what TO do and how to
do it, Likewise should he learn certain
things about his duties of citizenship and
be able to trust his own judgment as to
what is right and what is wrong.

They are discussing queer bill to
deal with drunkards in Michigan. 1t
provides that the man who gets drunk
and is arrested for that offence may Ell
ther paythe ordinary fine and be locked up
if he cannot pay it, or give satisfactory
bond that he will go to some good place
where men are treated for the liquor
habit and be cured of his disease. If a
man says he wants to be cured, but is too
poor to foot the bill, then the expense
may be paid by the county. When this
bill becomes law, Michigan will be a
fine State to get drunk in.

In saying that Hoods Sarsaparilla
cures, its proprietors made no idle ex-

Hoods Sarsaparilla is always within the
bounds of reason, because it is true; it
always appeals to the sober, common

subsUantiated by endorsements, which in
the financial world would be accepted

ENFORCE THE LAW.

Some months ago the general assembly
passed a law making trackwalking y
misdemeanor yet although the danger
ous practice still continues without
abatement not a single prosecution has
been instituted.
IL may not be amiss to ask Of what
value is law If it is not enforced
The purpose of those who framed
and passed this measure was TO
prevent the unnecessary sacrifice of hui
man life. 1t is humane measure
and should be enforced. Were the au-
thoritles to make an example Of those
who daily place their lives in
jeopardy there is reason to be-
leve the reckless practice would
be abandoned, and tragedies such as
that which occurred near the Wood
lawn station last evening would be
fewer.

CANDIDATE OF A FACTION.

AS was as,expected the machine held a
convention in Pawtucket last evening
and went through the form of nomin-
ating the ticket which had previously
been made up by the co.erie Of Carroll
Democrats who are still striving to con-
troll the destinies of the party. The
convention, it is needless to say, was
harmonious as Mr.. Carroll and his fol-
lowers had taken care that none but
members Of the mach1ue should have
either voice on vote.
Mr.. Robinson was named as the candi-
date for mayor as it was known he
would be, and without contest and
opposition Of any kind. The unanimity
shown does not by any means indicate
that the party as whole will be equally
united when 1t goes to the polls. Indeed
the convention represented but small
faction Of the Democracy of Pawtucket,
faction which has earned, and de-
servedly so, the distrust Of the people
through the treachery and trickery Of
its leader and the readiness of the rank
and file to do any work, however ques-
tionable its character, that may be
ordered by him.
Under such circumstances not even
Mr.. Robinson can claim he Is the can
didate of the Democratic party. He is
not. He is simply the nominee OF the
Carroll coterie which manipulated the
primaries In his interest and procured
the election of delegates pledged to his
support. IL is not difficult to imagine
what the result of Mr.. Robinson's can.
vass will he. Defeat is foreordained in
his case aud by a majority larger than
that under which he was buried year
ago.
Even were Mr.. Robinson the choice Of
a united and enthusiastic Democracy
there would be little chance of his cleo
ton. because the sensible citizens OF
Pawtucket have had two discouraging
and costly experiences under an executive
put forward by that party and they do
not care to repeat them. They have
come TO the very sensible conclusion that
IL Is only by committing the affairs OF
the city 70 the care and control OF the
Republicans that they can be certain of
good, economical aud honest govern
ment.

STILL FOLLOWS PRECEDENT.

The New York Herald recently said
| that ''it is a curious coincidence that
the Democratic party occupies upon its
return TO power very much the same
critical position before the country as it
occupied when IL went out with James
Buchanan. 1t is confronted by an
issue vital TO the nation and to its own
existence. And it is prepared to meet it
in the same way 1t met the issue in 1860.
It is split into three factions, each at
war with the other two, just as it was
when ii came out OF the Charleston con-
vention and continued to be until ma
tional calamity followed its indecision
and bickering," There is this difference
between the situation fortunately. In
1860 its indecision and inability to
govern led to the horrors
of the civil war. Today
fortunately it can have no such ending
Ruin and distress, however, has fol-
lowed in the wake of its advent to
power and so long as the Democracy.
with its free trade principles, its deter
mination to substitute theory for
we'll tried and successful policy, is in
full control of the government there
en- be no relief. The silver question
grave as it is better remain unsolved
until the control of government passes
back into the hands of the Republican
party rather than have free trade
measure throy down the protective
system.
The Democracy unable to control
itself is not fit to be entrusted with the
control OF government Thinking men
have only to consider the difference in
the attitudes of the two great parties at
the present time to reach conclusion
as to which is more fitted to govern
this nation. The Republicans are
present, eager and willing to act, real
izing as they do the absolute necessity
of action on the big financial matters
that at present through the obstinacy
of the Democracy are bringing the
naion TO the verge OF ruin. The DEM
ocrats divided. vacillating, and found.
ering about without a leader or a plan
which offers any solution, gives the
other side of the pictu:e.
The government is running behind in
its actual expenses sixty millions of dol
lars year, and there does not seem to be
ability and statesmanship enough in the
whole Democratic party to grapple with
and dispose Of the difficulty. And not
content with having no remedy of their
own they refuse to allow action by any
one else.
Incompetency and inability to con-
troll even itself marks the Cleveland ad-
ministration, which was to bring such
'good times,' SO great prosperity to the
nation when once it secured control of the
government. II is now in absolute con-
troll of the legislative and executive
branches and still is unable to perform
even the simplest act of legislation.
And as the party in 1860 split up,
divided and went 10 pieces, so it will
now. Already the forces are at work
disintegrating and separating it, and an
indignant people will do the rest.
The Democracy is still following prec-
edent.
