Who are Populists?

A Populist is man who believes that
everything that is, is wrong. There
must be universal change, and change
in accordance with his own ideas of the
fitness of things. A prosperous, level
headed business man, manufactures,
merchant or farmer is never Populist.
In accordance with the Populists' no.
ton, the experience of the world, the
accumulated wisdom of time, are of no
account 1t remained for the advent
of the Populists to determine the true
political science. As Roscoe Conklin
once said in the United States senate,
so in Populist gatherings, "the amount
of wisdom flying around loose is aston
ishing."
The old story of the coon dog is appli'
cable to the average Populist: He is a
failure in business, in politics, and in
everything else; and so he is of the
right kind of material for a tirst-class
Populist.

is Mayor Pingree the first individual
who, failing Of the public appreciation
according to the standard of his own
self -estimated merit, sets himself mp as
an apostle of political reform and en-
deavors TO awaken the public conscience
to the enormity of the crime OF having
preferred others to himself.
In the meantime the world moves
right along. Mr.. Rich was renom-
mated for governor, as it was expected
he would be, as it was right and proper
that he should be, and the people are
satisfied Mr.. Pingree says that he is a
Republican. lie will establish the JUS
tice of that claim if he will abide by the
decision of the Republican party and
loyalty support the nominations which
have been made = made with more
than usual unanimity in a convention
of which he and his followers consti-
tuted a part. Mr.. Pingree ought to
have sense to know that all the enco-
NUNS and flattering attentions be-
slowed upon him by the Democrats at
this time are not owing to any interest
which they take in him personally, but
for the purpose of utilizing the chagrin
and opposition which he shows, To en-
danger the success of the Republican
ticket. Mr.. Pingree's republican fealty
has poor flavor when we find him
consorting with Messrs. Fisher and
Stone, and Tarsney, and Bush, and
Nichols, and Champion, and the other
leaders of the conglomeration that is
arrayed against the Republican party.
Mr.. Pingree's head has swelled too
much. His success as mayor of Detroit
he imagines entities him to universal
recognition. He thinks himself big
enough man to spread all over the
state, as did Cleveland from being
mayor of Buffalo cover all the United
States We hope that some of his bet
ter advised friends will step on his coat
tails and hold him down; for we feel
sure that if he listens to the siren voice
of his tlatterers they will entice him to
ruin. TO the democracy are peculiarly
applicable the lines of Truthful James,
that, For ways that are dark and
tricks that are vain the heather Chinee
is peculiar"
Mayor Pingree has many friends in
the Republican party all over the state.
He has made his record thus far in the
Republican ranks There let him stay
and do his duty to his party in this cam
paign, as in former campaigns, and the
Republicans will remember his services
and forget his kicks, and hoist him, ii
may be, into greater leadership at no
distant future.

relief TO the people and to some extent
revive business. and this, as a mere
matter of contrast, would help the
party. But IL they were to adjourn
without passing any bill, such wave
of graduation and hope of returning
prosperity would sweep over the land
as would sink the democracy into utter
oblivion. 1t is this apprehension of a
restoration of prosperity to the country
as result of no tariff legislation, as the
lesser of two evils, that will impel the
democracy to agree upon a measure.
and that measure, the writer predicts,
will be substantially the German bill

The President will be Beaten.


1t is something that has not happened
before in recent years, when Presi-
dent of the United States has been
arraigned by his own party aud boldly
accused Of falsehood and double deal
ing. Mr.. German, in his great speech
replying to the Presidents letter adj
dressed to Chairman Wilson, openly
accuses the President-not in words to
be sure, but in fact, of downright lying
He says that the Senate bill was sub.
mitted to the President and approved
by him. and substantiated his statement
by calling upon prominent Democratic
Senators in open Senate to verify his
words Thus we have the spectacle of
one Senator appealing to others in his
own party to rise up in their seats and
testify to the duplicity of their own
Chief Magistrate, and of these men
thus called upon, coming forward and
freely and completely sustaining Sena-
tor German in the charges which he
has made.
Mr.. Cleveland, in his letter to Chair.
man Wilson, accused the Senate of
"perfdy" and "dishonor." But Mr..
German, by his own declaration, and
admissions somewhat reluctantly made
by Senators Vest, Jones and Harris,
plainly establish the fact that the terms
"pertidy" and dishonor" have re-
tnrned to rOost permanently upon the
shoulders of the President.
1t is exasperating to note the assump-
ton of interest by the President in the
welfare of the farmers when he asks of
the Senate how can they look the farm
ers in the face when they put wool on
the free list and iron and coal under
protection? And this is given as a
reason for making coal and ore free of
duty. That is, because one of the chief
products of agriculture is made free,
then other important articles of raw
material, as iron and coal, mus also
be free, in justice to farmers. Why
could he not have said, if he IL so yer,
anxious to do farmers justice, that mas
much as the senate bill provides for
duties on iron ore, coal, ETC., then also,
in justice to farmers, wool should be
protected? But no; he don't want wool
to be protected; he wants it to be free.
The president imagines that it would
be some sort of solace to the farmers
OF the country in their ruin and misery
to see the coal and iron mining indus
tries suffering also in the same helpless
collapse.
The farmers want neither free ore,
free coal, nor free wool They want
the prosperity of all industries; for the
prosperity of all other branches of in
dustry insures the welfare of their own
The two branches OF congress are
very wide apart with their respective
tariff bills, but the great danger is that
they will come together and pass, sub
stantially, the senate bill. The presi-
dent and the house will be beaten.
Congress dares not adjourn without
passing some tariff measure. The mere
fact of their finally passing law, no
matter what, and adjourning, will be a

ORIGIN OF NAMES.

BARK, Barker and Barkley show the importance of tan bark in early English i times.
 TABORER was a drummer and his sons are the Tabrars, Tabors and Tabers of to-day.
 PINNER and Pinster remind us of a time when pins were rare and costly ornament.
 LOCKE, Curl, Crisp, seem to indicate an ancestor with marked capillary at fractions. TERowER was once the winder of silk threads, hence the Throwers and Throwsters.
 BEHDEL, Beddall and Riddle are de- rived from the name of an old English functionary. HAC2ER, Pipe, Piper, Dancer, Luter, Crouther. Baird, Singer, are all profes- sional names. DAW8ER is a descendant of him who chinllcd or daubed the cottage walls with wet clay. BLONDE, a complexion adjective, was the progenitOr of Blund, Blunt, Blount and Blondell.
 PATTENs were overshoes, hence the Pattons, Patons, Patteners, Putners and Putnams
 PELTER, Peliper and Furrier recall the fur trade of the English with Nor way and Sweden.

A CLEVER BOSTON GIRL.
Even a Chicago Hackman Was Paralyzed hy Her Financial Onerations.


 The Chicago hackman is supposed to be endowed with a full allowance of the smartness peculiar to men in his profession, but Boston girl is cred tied with getting the best of him. The hackman himself tells the story, says the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette. His name is Johnson, and his business during the summer has been mainly in | the service of the guests in the dormi- tories of the Chicago university. Johnson has run daily excursions for them through a twenty-five mile drive for one dollar,
 Within two days after her arrival Johnson took the Boston young woman ! out as one of his morning party. She occupied the seat with him and piled him with questions On the following day when he called for passengers Johnson noticed this Boston girl flying around in a lively way. Soon she came to him and wanted to know how much he would charge to take forty persons up to the center of town and back for an evening reception. He gave his figures, and then she went shopping.
 The next day she told Johnson she could get the work done for twenty eight dollars, and that he might as well take the job at that figure, She preferred his rigs, she said, because they looked nicer than any she had seen elsewhere. Johnson took the job, and on the evening appointed the young woman marshaled out her forty people. They were in evening dress and full of gayety. Suddenly the Boston young woman spoke out: We may not all get together when we come back and may be very tired. Suppose collect the fares now and be done with it?'
 She did so, and each person paid her one dollar for the evenings transpor- tation. She quickly counted out twentyeight dollars and gave it to Johnson, and placing twelve dollars in her own purse rode to the event ng's reception with satisfied smile and a most charming affability. Three days later she did the same thing over again. As she put the twelve dollars in her purse Johnson scratched his head and says he muttered: Well, I'll be d-!'
 The next time he proposed a di- vision of the spells. She eyed him for a minute, saw that he was in earnest, gave him four dollars out of the twelve, and after that they did business on this basis. She got up sightseeing parties inside the fair, theatrical parties, lecture parties, made scores of friends, and at every move seemed to add to her purse. So well did she succeed that she had two months at the fair and went home with one hundred dollars in her pocket.
 Johnson says he has traveled about a good bit, his last excursion Of impor- tance being trip to the Paris expo sition, but he never saw person who could do up'' Chicago hackmen as that Boston girl did

tained life in such place and under such conditions will forever be puzzle to the most discerning archaologist. There is a large spring of delicious, cool water on the face of the cliff near the only entrance. This at least in sured a permanent water supply against any prolonged siege of the en- emy.
 They buried their dead on the mesa in catacombs hollowed out for a dis tance along main avenue of over two miles. The sight is, indeed, ghastly, grewsome one, never to be forgotten.
 Grinning skulls and crumbling bones reflect back the light from torches. The sepulchers are hollowed out in the walls similar to the rooms in the face of the cliffs, It is dry, soft conglom- crate formation, the arches and walls of which are self-supporting, and never was there a more favorable place, nor could there be, for repository of the dead than this.
 We have already excavated to a con- siderable amount pottery in a good state of preservation; also copper orna- ments and vessels. We have four Mex jeans at work and will remain here a month yet in hopes of making further important discoveries.
 The ruined city was discovered in January last by MT. A. P. F. Coape, an Englishman, who has spent the last six years in this part of New Mexico hunt ing and fishing.
 The ruins are so well preserved that they look as if they might not have been long abandoned; yet how many thousand years have rolled around since the city throbbed with life and action no one can even conjecture.
 The country abounds in many other ruins of the prehistoric race of Amer i2a. In Canyon Largo, about sixty miles from here in southern Colorado there is quite a tier of cliff-dwelling villages in which much valuable pot tery is said to have been found. But this was evidently the chief city and capital of the cliff dwellers, as the pow-wow holes and foundations ot large public buildings and the plaza about them would indicate. This is indeed the Pompeii of America, and well worthy the attention of the scien tific world generally.

French suburbans in the Bronx val ley delight in holding old world fash ions, and the peasant blue is still seen among them, while doubtless there are sabots in every house, called into use on wash day and at other low barometer seasons.
