will be an example for other boys to

his pardon was so numerously signed
by prominent and influential persons
that executive clemency was fully JUS

TWO REPUBLICAN 1PLANKs.,

The Utah Republicans who have
gone to Denver as delegates to the
convention there have manufactured a
platform of their own to present as
the platform of the Republican League
of the United States. 1t consists chief
ly of buncombe in Iaudation of the Re
publican party, and mud-spattering at
the party in power. 1t is rhetorical
rather than reasoning or declarative,
and bears the ear-marks of hack
neyed local pusher of the quill.
We wish now merely to put in COM
parison, or rather contrast, a couple
of sentences from the document. to
let the public see how they harmon
ize CD.
First read that:
In contrast we exult over the rec
ord Of glory which the Republican par
ty has made; its achievements and, tri-
umphs which, extending over thirty
years, established it as the most mas
terful and enlightened political organ
ization that ever existed.
In the face of the present disasters
to the country, it is with increased SOL
emnity that we once more renew our
allegiance to the Republican party and
proclaim its cardinal principles.
Then read this:
Inasmuch as the great present bus
mess depression which has already
cost the nations more than all the wars
of the past century, and which has
become intolerable was caused by the
general decentralization of silver, which.
in effect, struck out of existence one
half of the worlds money of ultimate
redemption. inasmuch as values fol-
lowing an inviolable law have shran1-
en- one-half; inaSmuch as the ratio be-
tween gold and silver was first estab-
lished by legislation and has never
since been changed except by legisIa-
ton; inasmuch as the purchasing DOW
er of silver remains unchanged, de-
spite the efforts of the nations 10 de-
grade it; and irlasmuch as it is true
that if the nations could unload upon
our people all the silver which the
world through the ages has gathered
and saved, it would not, at Ape stand

the same amount of money per capita

The so-called debate in the Senate,
which has not thrown a single ray OF
light on the subject of the tariff, ought

of a help. Too many of its members

those interests dictate.-St. Louis Post

New York is already beginning the
agitation of the question of an indie
pendent municipal ticket this fall.
The Commercial Advertiser Rep) adj
vocates a straight Republican ticket.
1t says:
A straight Republican ticket under
the conditions induced by the reorgani-
cation means a set of candida tes of un-
usual merit The clements now in con-
troll of the party are the best in the
party and the best in the community.
1t means the support of this ticket by
the united Republican enemies of Tam
many and by Democrats who desire the
overthrow of the plunderers and the re-
organization of the dissipated DeInoc-
racy
The overthrow of Tammany is the
great thing to be accomplished 1t is a
small price for the independents and
! respectable Democrats to pay for so
great service-.this price of the cleo
, ton of such municipal officers as the
Ieorganized Republican party is sure TO
name.
Such a covert attempt to enthrone
any party will not succeed.

The Republicans have a double duty
to perform in the discussion of the
tariff, and if they were not very re-
markable people they would fail. To
eatch the votes of the consumers they
have to show that the tariff does not
increase prices, and to save the pro-
tected monopolist from reduction in
the duties imposed in his interest, they
have to show that if the duties are re-
duced he will have to sell his goods at
a ruinous price. Foreign competition
reduces prices, the protectionist says
in one breath, and in the next he says
that the exclusion of foreign competi-
ton reduces them. A man must be

The outrage perpetrated upon Adju-
tant-General Tarsney of Colorado has
excited the Indignation of Governor
Waite, because the adjusanlt- gem Grad
is a Populist and one of the governor s
assistants. Yet Mr.. Waite can hardly
fail to see that this atrocity is the
direct result of his own incendialy ut
terances and addiction of duty. When
the governor of state threatens to
wade in blood to his bride because
things do not suit him, how can he
| blame ignorant hearers for tarcing and
! feathering somebody because things
| do not suit them? Governor Waite
taught lawlessness, but he has not
been allowed ito direct it.-San Fran
cisco Examiner Dem)
The assault ON General Tarsney was
not only a personal outrage, but it was
an attack ON American institutions.
Governor Waite is an excreseace on
the body polite, and it is to be hoped
his like will never be seen again.

speaking of the political situation in
Kansas, says it is not such as to dis
courage the Democrats, and adds:
1t is the duty of a political organiza-
ton to do its best at all times and I'M
der all circumstances. Even in the alb
sence of hope of success the very best
candidates should be named and every
honorable effort put forth to poll the
full party vote for them. The record
of the Kansas Democracy is radiant
in this respect. For years it fought a
hopeless battle with such energy and
ability as to challenge the admirati
of the world.

Pose of . Moose,s Head.

have Just returned from the head
waters of the Penobscot, where fished
for four seasons. I wish to call atten-
ton to what have concluded from
personal observation is a monumental
blunder on the part of illustrators, and
especially of taxidermists, in the posi-
ton given to the head of the moose.
Last year and this year I saw seven
moose standing quietly in the open,
and took especial pains in each in
stance to note the position of the head.
Instead of thrusting it forward as is in
variably shown neither of these moose
held its head in any such position. Five
of the seven were bulls, one of tl1ese a
patriarch All of their heads were
erect; not so erect as q deer's, but far
from the horizontal position usually
shown. After the moose gets in mo-
ton he does thrust his head forward in
the manner and attitude shown, but he
does not do so when standing. The
same may be said of the caribou. 1t is
manifestly absurd to mount the head of
any animal in any other position than
that of rest, and taxidermists would do
well to take due notice of the fact and
govern themselves accordingly.-FOreSt

The Mother Teaches the Young Ones to
Fish.

Il saw the counterpart of a boys
school one day in the woods of Illinois"
said an amateur naturalist to a St.Louis
Globe-DenlocrGt man.
Il was sitting quietly on the bank of
a creek when there came pacing down
little path an old mother raccoon with
five young ones. The little fellows
were about as large as half-grown cats
and were as full of fun as that mythical
basket of monkeys we read about. If
ever there was a hard-worked teacher it
was that poor mother coon. She tried
to teach the little imps how to catch
crawfish and how to eat them.
"When the old lady (she was a very
ladylike old 'coon) got the little fellows
in line at the waters edge she sedately
walked to a rock and gravely reached
down into hole and brought out a
crawfish. She then proceeded to wash
it, but just as she was about to eat it
one little coon broke ranks and stole
the crawfsh.
"This started a row and all the little
fellows were badly mixed, while the old
one was administering bites and cuffs
indiscriminately among the scholars.
She finally succeeded in restoring order
anu Gl0n S0uL Ou0 OI Jn0 I1CII6 COO0S TO
try it in another hole. Here is where
the fun began in earnest and all the
mischievous boys that ever made a
teachers heart ache were angels of
goodness when compared with these
little 'coons. They pinched each others
legs and worried the old coon until she
turned and gave them general cutting
all around.
ut seemed to me that each little coon
knew his lesson perfectly and was de-
termined to get all the fun out of the
proceedings possible, for when the
mother coon got SO angry that she
made her bites felt the little fellows got
down to business and caught, washed
and ate their crawfish with all the abil-
ity of veterans.
"The comically grave faces of the lit
tie fellows as they reached down into
the crawtish holes and groped about for
the fish was too much for my risibilities
and gave such hearty laugh that the
school was instantly dismissed"

cARRIEL,s TRUMP.
How q Young Girl Cured Her Brother of
Practical Joking.

A certain excellent lady of Boston
has so great a horror of practical jokes
and all other sorts of foolish levity which
does not regard the rights and feelings
of others, that it was with much sur
prise that her friends recently heard
her ayow that she once in her youthful
days perpetrated practical joke of her
own, says the Youths Companion.
"Ah," said young man who was pres
ent. $50 when you were young you be-
lieved in practical jokes yourselfP"
Not at all, she answered. 81 merely
believed in curing young men of the
practice of perpetrating them if pos
sibly could "Please tell us about it, +"
said the young man.
"Well, T&s II years old and was
probably about as timid as most girls
of my age. There had been a revival
of the MiIlerite excitement in our neigh
borhood and some people nightly ex-
pected to hear the sound of GabriePs
trumpet announcing the end of the
world.
81 did not believe in this, but I con-
fessed at the dinner table one day that
if should hear horn blow in the night
should be frightened out of my wits.
was foolish enough to make this con-
fession in the presence of my younger
brother, who was great joker.
at happened that at this same time
another brother, very little fellow,
was just getting over mild attack of
the measles. He was somewhat trou-
blesome in the night and occasionally
called for drink of cold water. 1t fell
to my lot to take care of the child, and
in getting him the water had to pass
through a darkened chamber, in the
floor of which stovepipe hole had been
left open to allow heat to come upstairs
from the sittin groom below.
"As passed out through this room to
get the glass of water l noticed from
the appearance of the stovepipe hole
that there was very faint light in the
room below. went on out, and as /
returned softly with my glass of WAFER
l paused and looked down into the sit
ting-room.
There saw my smart brother stand
ing on chair, getting ready to thrust
the mouth of long tin dinner-horn up
into the stovepipe hole and blow blast
to frighten me.
Il took step or two which he could
hear and up came the mouth of the
horn. And then, just as he was pre-
pairing to blow his fearful blast I poured
my glass of water into the mouth of the
horn.
Instead of hearing Gabriers trump I
heard great gurgling and sputtering
noise and the joker below went tum-
bling out of the chair to the floor. /
rushed downstairs to make sure that he
was not badly choked, but when I
reached the lower room he had van
ished, horn and all.
"At the breakfast table next morning
he looked so crestfallen that could not
help bursting into fit of laughter and
had to tell the story. And my young
brother. found, was pretty effectually
cured of practical joking by the ridicule
that followed this performance.

A KIND OF TELEPATHY.
He Was Nervous, but the Saleswoman
Knew What He Wanted.

He was only one of several hundred
customers in large Washington street
establishment and there was nothing to
a casual observer that would have dis
tinguished him from the mass of human
ity that was pushing and crowding him
along, says the Indianapolis Sentinel.
But to an initiated eye he was different.
And the bright-eyed, black-haired little
girl who had charge of several depart
ments on the floor recognized the diff
ference.
1t was Saturday afternoon and he had
come in on an excursion. The con-
ductor had forgotten to take the check
out of his hat and was afraid he'd loose
it, so he pined it to the band.
His face was of the shade of red that
showed plainly that harvest was over,
while his sand-colored trousers looked
like the front legs of an elephant He
was %, rural, unsophisticated and
ahashed.
He had stood gazing in the window in
sheepish, half-frightened manner for
ten minutes before he came in, and,
after glancing nervously around, had
darted into the store between two real
old, motherly looking ladies. His eyes
wandered nervously from one to an
other in the crowd, as though afraid of
being recognized, and then he was
slowly pushed along by the crowd to-
ward the little black-haired clerk, who
had been watching him with some
amusement. She was standing at the
button counter at the time.
The crowd stopped in its irregular
ebb and flow and the young man was
grounded directly in front Of her, his
face roster than ever. Perspiration
started to his forehead in great beads as
she approached with a smile.
He stammered. took off his hat, raised
one foot and slowly scratched the other
leg with it and tried to speak. 1t was
no use. He just couldn't.
Il know" she said. kindly. as she
came up; don't worry about it. You
want to look at baby carriages. This
way please"
His hat dropped to the floor and he
gasped as though choking on spoon
full of prunes:
"Why-it was only Wednesday,
how'd you know?" he stammered.
Never mind" she replied, kindly.
1--WE get so we can tell. Here is nice
one for S."
1t was just what he had intended to
pay and he bought it as though in a
dream.
And then he walked out with the red
check still fastened to his hat band with
the tsll-tals safety pin.
