ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

Last Thursday afternoon the many
relatives and friends of the above
highly esteemed and popular young
couple, had the pleasure of witnessing
the beautiful wedding ceremony of the
Catholic church, performed by Rev,
Father Henrionet, which united the
lives Of Mr.. Joseph Stansbury, ofPerry,
and Miss Lucy Sherman, of Crosse Isle.
Thus, Cupid, the god of love cap
lures another victim, and Two hearts
that beat with warm and afIectionate
love embark-0n the sea Of matrimony.
True love, when it eliminates in bend
ing the lives of young people, is indeed
d grand thing. Poets, authors and
well-known writer's have written about
it, until they carry it to one Of the
most sublime happenings of human
lie. Poets have dwelt on the subject
OF love, until they carry ones self into
ecstasy.
The bride entered&thc church clad
in p beautiful dress Of white silk and
orange blossoms, and was attended by
the following bridesmaids: Miss Lizzie
Mills, Misses Mary Stansbury, Dora
Stansbury, Bertha Jettun, Mary Brous-
sard, Virginia Broussard.
The bridal party Immediately after
the ceremony, repaired to the BRIDES
residence at Crosse Isle, where an ele-
CANT wedding dinner was served to a
large number Of friends. And at night
an elegant ball was held at Perry,
where a large number of acquaintancos
and friends joined in dancing until a
late hour.
The MER1DIoNAL joins with their
numerous friends in wishing a pleasant
smooth voyage along the stream Of lifo's
troubled waters.

A CANDID REPUR.1caN.

When good. Intelligent Republican
ALI these words OF qualification are es-
sential-ioses his partisan consciousness
and invites his soul to frank Repression.
there Is remarkable difference be.
tween his accountings for the financial
depression and the Industrial paralysis
and those he fabricates when he drops
candor and robes himself in party rau-
cor. There is then striking similarity
between his views and those OF the equal.
~ good and intelligent Democrat. We
printed the other day partial report of
the speech Of Hon. o. NJ. Hall, in which
he attributed the conditions mainly to
the collapse of the boom preclpitated by
bad legislation. but not caused wholly
by 1t. The editor of the Northwest
Magazine-who is ordinarily a pretty
thorough going Republican outside
OF his magazine. bnt candid
and philosophic writer in it-has an ed
itorial entitled "Out Of Gear, In a re-
cent number. in which he discusses the
present conditions In conneetioH with
Coxevism. THE real underlying cause
OF this curious movement" he SAYS.
"must be looked for In the Industrial
condition OF the country. tits, in fact.
q legacy of the late pariod of expansion
and speculation" These ledit0 an un--
due activity in the cities. drawing fn,-
menseiy from the country. and. when
the collapse came, leaving in the cities
large numbers Of the UNEMPLOYED.
Equally sound are his conclusions:
"l'here must be REIMBURSEMENT Of the
forces Of society. 1t is a painful pro-
cess. but there is no escaping 1t. Leg.
islstion can accomplish nothing. Eco
nomic laws are a part of the machinery
of the universe az much as the law Of
gravitation. We have violated these
laws in our national graed for sudden
wealth and our craving for the excite
ments of city life and for comparatively
easy forms Of labor. Now, there Is
nothing to do but to begin the slow
process of readjusting our industrial
machinery" e-
It Is true that affirmative legislation
can do nothing to help this condition,
but 1t is true that negative legislation
repeal of laws-can do much. All laws
whereby special advantages. giving un.
natural facilities for m aking money; all
laws that interfere with the natural dis
tribution of wealth, no matter how
backed they are by those mere senti-
mental ideas of betteriBg conditions,
should be relentlesslv. swept away.
They are the breeding places OF specu-
latfon. melting abnormal and feverish
activities, which spread their infection
to the land and business, and create
conditions as sure to end in disastrous
collapse as will continued and pro-
longed dissipation break down the
strongest constitution. As old John
Wesley said hundred years ago:
''Take your hands of. and then let
things alone"

TIE DENVER GATHERING.

The convention of Republicanleagues,
now In session at Denver. IS large in
point Of members and representative
In character. In no respect is 1t so
thoroughly representative as in its cow
ardice. The committee On resolutions,
it Is said, at Its meeting Tuesday
evening manifested strong disposition
to frown down all Issues such as free
coinage of silver. woman suffrage, ETC.,
and will simply reiterate the decIara-
lions of the Minneapolis platform. with
possibly some good advice concerning
the evils of Populism.
This anti-progressiye programme Is
no doubt the result of mature delibera-
ton, and Is in c0nsonance with the pol
10y of the party to do its fighting under
cover rather than openly. 1t desires to be
left free to take whatever side of every
question may seem to be the most popu.
lar, whether right or wrong. 1t pro-
poses to run no risk by making an
honest declaration of policy upon mat
tiers that concern the welfare of the ma
ton, but will trim its sails to catch the
varying winds Of popular caprice, what
ever the consequences to the country
may be.
And yet this party Is loud In It's pro-
LESSONS of patriotism and devotion to
principle. 1t claims to represent the
Intelligence Of the American people,
and to be q directing force in political
affairs. The truth 81 the matter IS that
it never leads, but always follows. It
does not create policies; it merely fol.

perhaps it will be winning one in the
future. But it does not increase the es.
TEEN in which the party is held by all
sensible men. And in the long run it
will prove destructive policy. When
the people of the United States realize
that the Republican party has no fixed
principles. and can be depended upon
to adopt any heresy from motives of
policy. they will realize that it is a
sham, and to ask their support for i,
will be an insult. The league OF clubs
is no more cowardly than have been the
national conventions of the party in the
past. For score of years the platforms
of the party have been equivocal-cap pa

by all honorable men who have the well

1T APPEARS that even the anarchists
have been seized with a sense Of the

slaughter were frequently killed or
manned, and much suffering was en-.
