When the Dog Came Back.

To the Editor:
II Is the custom OF the owner Of . dog In my
street to take him for a walk every night after
supper While he was performing this duty one
nisht last week the dog ran away and was not
to be seen anywhere, 20 the gentleman went up-
stairs and went to bed. for he was not foolish
enough to lose his sleep for a dog when he
got upstairs he told the mother of the house. and
she did not know what to DO: but what do you
think she did, She went to the front room window
and waited and waited for her dog. but could
not see him. Well, about 4 o'clock In the
morning along came the dog all wet and dirty
and his mistress In the window yet. Up she
jumps and runs downstairs like a wild woman.

his dirt. after staying out all night till 4 in

CONSPIRACY AaAInsT REPEAL.

when President Cleveland called an
extra session Of Congress to repeal the
Silver Purchasing clause OF the Sher-
man law the Republican politicians in
this city and elsewhere, declared that
repeal would he defeated, and that the
President would have a mice job" in
getting a repeal bill through the Senate.
Thers Can be no doubt that the Re
publican leaders hoped to embarrass
the Administration by a continuance Of
the financial and business troubles their
own policy had drawn upon the coun-
try, and desired to prevent the Demo-
cratic party from gaining the credit
Of restoring prosperity by repeating
Republican laws.
1t is now reported from Washington
that Republican Congressional eau
Gus. to be held this evening, is called
for the purpose of considering the ex-
pediency of defeating the effort of SEN
ator Voorhees, to press the repeal bill
to vote.
This policy IL urged on the Republi-
cans by ex-Speaker Reed and other I'M
scrupulous partisans. 1t is the duty OF
the Democrats to compel the Republi-
conspiracy. II 1t really exists, should not
be suffered to succeed without exposure.
The rumor is that the Republicans are
to aid the Silver men in defeating re-
peal in return for the assistance Of
Democratic and Populist Silverites in
preventing the repeal Of the Supervisors
OF Election law.
The Democratic Senators ought to
take care to expose the plot and to
make 1t plain by the immediate applica-
ton of extreme measures on the Silver
Purchasing Repeal bill.
