Justice, equity, fair dealing, equal taxa
ton and the condemnation of all special
privileges should be endorsed and embodied
in every general law that is enacted by a
democratic congress. The Wilson bill is
destitute of these principles and it should
be condemned, and it must be condemned or
the party which is entrusted with power
will be condemned by the people. Correct
the bill by taxing all imports and treating
all labor and money employed in American
industries alike under the law; then, and
not till then, will it be a democratic meas

Democratic Panics.


-DtNNOtftt'
The democratic panic of lS93-94 is not so
bad as was the same party's panic in 1887,
but this is due to the fact that the opposing
organization is stronger and more resolute
now than it was then. The proportion of
cussedness per capita in the democracy is
just as high in Cleveland's days us it was in
Van Buren's.

Turn of the Tide.

Merchants and manufacturers concur in
testifying to the evidences of returning
prosperity. The mills are resuming work,
collections are good, failures are few and
the outlook hopeful. The advent of better
times can no longer be put off by singing
dolorous songs in the market places.

Worthy of Recognition.

In an attempt to save the lives on board a
wrecked American steamer six sailors of the
Dutch steamship Amsterdam imperiled their
own lives in an open boat on a tempestuous
sea and were drowned. The American gov
ernmcnt should take prompt recognition of
this act of heroism.

Patriotism Doesn't Run that Way.

1t has just transpired that owing to a mis-
take in the law Michigan state officers have
drawn thousands of dollars from the treas
ury to which they were not legally entitled.
1t is a little singular that officials in Michi-
gan or elsewhere never fail into the mistake
of drawing less than the law allows them.

For auRht that we hear of he may be a saint,
And none of his errors makes any complaint.
He knows all the canons and rubrics by heart.
And oft to the needy will blessings impart,
But he isn't the shepherd we want at our fold.
We think for our parish he's rather too old.

And cannot quite compass the world in a day?

Where angels invite to the city of gold,

Spoiled It All.

A farmer went to hear John Wesley
preach. Wesley said he would take up
three topics of thought. He was talking
chiefly about money. His first was,
"Get all you can." The farmer nudged
a neighbor and said: ''This is strange
preaching. l never. heard the like be-
fore. This is very good" Then Wesley
discoursed on Industry" ''Activity,"
Living to Purpose" and reached his
second division, "Save all you can"
The farmer became more excited. "Was
there ever anything like this?" he said.
Wesley denounced thriftlessness and
waste, and he satirized the willful wick
edness which lavishes in luxury, and the
farmer rubbed his hands, and he thought.
"All this l have been taught from my
youth up" and what with getting, and
what with boarding, it seemed to him
that salvation" had come to his house.
But Wesley advanced to his third head,
which was, "Give all you can" "Ah,
dear! ah, DEAR" said the farmer, .she has
gone and spoiled it all. - Rams Horn.
