The boss of Buzzard's Bay has
swallowed the time honored De-
mocracy.
The policeman who is so inhu-
man as to club and kick poor
cripple should be removed from
the force. He is not fit to be en-
trusted with a baton and the au-
thOrity to arrest citizens.
A free circulation of what money
is in the country would leave little
to be desired in the way of circu-
lating medium. 1t is tied up in
in the safety vaults and is not in
circulation. This hurts.
The democratic party of this
country are running down the
steep hill of disaster into the sea
of free trade, just as the swine
We're rushed into the sea, by the
instigation of the devil.
Chauncey Depew wants a short
and hot campaign IN the state Of
New York, on the part of the Re
publicans. Chauncey knows that
the democracy can be whipped in
short meter this year.
There are no end of delightful
retreats on the Texas gulf coast
where the sultry days of August
might be pleasantly spent if roomy
and airy hotels were built there.
This also is coming.
Texas shares to some extent in
the business depression that has
settled down temporarily upon the
whole country, but she is not
breaking her banks and busting up
her bushes firms.
The prayer still ascends for the
proper lettering and placing of
the names of the streets, but the
prayer seems Intellectual. Are the
ears of the council heavy that
they cannot hear?
The Texas delegation never was
so we'll placed in Congress as it is
under the present committee as
signments. This means that Texas
is better known now than she ever
was before.
The monthly record of disaster
by fire ind flood was greatly
heightened by the hurricane that
swept the Atlantic seabOard and
the fire that surged through South
Chicago.
Italy is hot while France keeps
cool. This is an indication of wis.
dom on the part of France that she
has not always given when she has
found herself in a hard row Of
stumps.
Free silver is not married to
tariff reform, and it is not in order
to publish the bans between them,
for the parties are not agreed.
Free silver is betrOthed to free
trade.
The situation is very much like
that of Tantalus'. There is peace
and plenty while the country is
troubled and starving for lack. of
what she abundantly possesses.
Dixon is not satisfied with the
drubbing that Plimmer gave him
and wants to try it again. Dixon
is not like John Sullivan. John
knew when he had enough.
Peach brandy ought to be cheap
this season, after the thousands OF
bushels that were blown from the
Delaware and Jersey trees during
the late storm.
The first duty of policeman up
| on his beat is to preserve his tenn
per and use no more force in max
| ing an arrest than is really neces
Sary.
There is not man in San Anto
Mo so stingy that he is not ready
to make his neighbOr a free gift et
his share of the garbage smoke.
One would think that HEAVIER
was an old sock, from the care
which some people take to lay III
their treasure in it.
That garbage smoke is an int
grail part of the garbage furnac
and cannot be helped, even if it i
a little loud.
| Gold keeps coming in and
should not be long now befor
general confidence marches in wit
, his forces.
