Are We Guilty!
NVaf1al 4. oo1a,o4

There is hackneyed but almost
truthful charge brought by the Re-
publicans against the Democratic
party, and that is, at has done
nothin'." what" asks the excited
Republican, "has the Democratic
party ever done for the country?"
Ignorance of history, now somewhat
ancient, may be an excuse for the
Republican who does not know that
the Democratic party has done more
for the common people than all the
other parties that ever existed. But,
tor the past thirty years, the Demo
cratic party has had no chance to do
anything, until the past year, and it
has encountered such mass of Re-
publican deyilment, which it is its
duty to get rid of, that it has we'll
nigh despaired. Chief among the
difficulties are number of Demo-
cratic leaders who see no higher OBJ
ject in politics than a division of the
spoils and the offices, and who are in
favor of any Republican infamy in
legislation, provided they or the
people of their respective districts
are getting the benefit of tariff rob
berry. Hence we have what are called
protection Democrats, who are per-
fectly willing for free trade upon ev-
erything except what their people
make, produce or raise at home
These men are able to thwart the eff
forts of their colleagues in their at
tempts to reform the tariff, and so
we stand to-day before the bar of
public opinion under charge of ne
glect of duty, if not of incompetency,
and dare we plead not guilty?

The assaults that have recently

The Tariff Issue Conc.

BIZ the passage Of the tariff bill.
Objectionable as it may be to earnest
reformers, coupled with the possibil-
ity of free coal, ore and sugar by the
special bills, it is clear, as the New
York Evening Post" puts it, "tbat
the Republicans have lost the tart fl
issue" The utterances Of Governor
Mckinley and President Harrison
since the bill passed the house con-
firm this view. They talk of Presi.
dent Cleveland eating crow, and in
that line of comicality, but not a
word about making the re enact
ment of the Mckinley tariff an issue
at the elections this fall or in 1896.
Very different this from the action
of the Democrats after the defeat OF
Mr.. Cleveland in 1888. They at
once and without hating nailed the
banner of tariff reform to the party
mast. Defeat neither discouraged
nor inundated the Democracy
They have won at last in reversing
the travel of tariff legislation. The
greater portion of President Cleye-
lands tariff message Of 1887 was de
voted to plea for free wool. He
has before him to day a bill for free
wool. 1t is the corner stone oftarifl
reform.
A few weeks ago Governor Nc.
Kinley seemed to be the predestined
candidate of the Republicans fol-
president in 1896. His candidacy
would of course mean the Mckinley
law over again. The feeling in favor
of the amiable Ohio governor is de
clining at rate that promises to
leave him on his back far outside
the breastworks two years since. WI
have not heard of Pittsburgh manu-.
facturers throwing the Mckinley
tariff to the breeze They are good
tempered and resigned; and wei
they may be, as they have sent g
great many thousands Of dollars
across the line to help along the
Napoleonic. They will save in thai
respect, and under the new tarif
they have every assurance of ap
preaching prosperity. Were it mo-
for their sleepless nights because o
''pauper wages their situation
would be altogether a comfortable
one. Let them. learn to parse the
sentence, LESS dividends and better
wages"
The chances to-day, and the turr
affairs have already taken, are al
together in favor of revival of bust
ness, industry and commerce, foreign
and domestic. If this comes about
it will have the effect of convincing
the people that tariff reduction is 8
good thing. The result may come
too late to counterfeit the adverse
political influences operative at this
falls elections. But how will it be
l
in 1896? Senator Allison, of Iowa
the foremost senator of his party in
dealing with economic questions
and very clearheaded observer
says that "the new bill is moder.
ate measure that will do less harm
to the industries of the country than
the Wilson bill would have done,'
and that he does not look for tar.
legislation to repeal the bill for a
long time.
The Republicans have lost the
tariff issue The chances are that
the tariff of 1894 will be amended
as the tariff of 1916 was in 1857, in
the direction of still lower duties, by
both parties coming together after
the lapse of a few years and adjust
ing it on business rather than a
political basis.-Pitfsburg Post.

Tariff agitation is at an end fol

benefit of trusts and rich manufac

Battles for the Flag.

If it had not been for the little cruisers of
the United States navy during the
war of the Revolution our soldiers ON land
would not have been able to secure arms
and ammunition with which to fight the
British troops. All during that struggle
our cruisers were running in and out of our
harbors to France and to the West Indies,
bringing in warlike stores.
One of the most successful of the cruisers
was the Andrea Doria. Early in August
Capt Isaiah Robinson started from the
Chesapeake to the West Indies for the pur-
pose of transporting cargo of muskets
and powder for Washington's army Arriv-
ing at st. Eustatia in the West Indies, his
flag was saluted by the Dutch Governor.
This was the first salute ever given to the
Stars and Stripes by foreign power. I'm
fortunately for the Dutch Governor, he was
removed for paying this compliment to
"Old Glory"
On Oct. 6, when off the western end of
the island OF Porto Rico, the Andrea Doria
met an English war vessel. AS the Ameri-
can cruiser was laden with stores that were
greatly needed by the American armies,
Capt. Robinson did not try to bring on
battle until the Englishman showed that he
had the swifter vessel of the two. The Ameri-
can then bore down for the English vessel
and Immediately began desperate battle
which lasted for two hours, with little or no
intermssion. The Americans fired so fast
that their cannon became heated and it was
necessary to dash buckets of cold water over
them. The English vessel finally surren-
dered, and gave her name as the Racehorse,
commanded by Lieut.. Jones, who was NOR
tally wounded early in the action. The
Andrea Doria had four men killed and
eight wounded, while the loss of the Eng
lish was much greater.

over the top, seasoned and covered. with

The best stuffing for fowls is made by crumb-
ling the soft part OF stale bread very fine into
seasoning bowl. Add pepper, salt and butter
in generous proportions. Mix dry and stuff
your fowls. The juices ia cooking, will moisten
sufficiently. You may add sage or thyme to
the stufing for turkeys chickens and a lit
tie chopped onion to the stutiDg for ducks and
geese.
All poultry is improved by wiping the inside
carefully after washing. so that no bloody water
may run into the stuffing. and then rub with
half OF an onion. to take the wild taste off"
For variety, aud a good one it Is, stuff your
ducks with apples. cut as for sauce. and your
turkeys with boiled chestnuts mashed and sea-
soned. II you very fond of onions you may
chop up quantity parboIl and season and
stuff your geese with them.
Ducks geese, chickens, and turkeys more
than year old shonld cook slowly from three
to five hours, according TO the size and age. IF
possible avoid poultry over year old, as the
fine flavor is lost after that.
Some people add an egg to turkey and chicken
stuffing, but when this is done the egg should
be well beaten. Your bread should be abso-
lutely sweet, If not little dissolved soda may
be mixed in with the butter; but be sure it is
little, as it will turn the stuffing yellow.
Give special attention TO your gravy; it
should always be brown. For this reason be
careful you do not pnt too much water in your
pan. Better add little as needed The finest
favored poultry is cooked without water. but
this requires very fat fowls and very frequent
basting.
Remember that poultry to be choice requires
careful attention while cooking; also, that
good cook tastes her gravics to see that they
are neither fresh nor salt, but just right.
To make gravy, remove the fowl from the
pan, and if there is great deal of fat pour off
the top. Then add the quantity of water you
want for gravy; some like plenty, others little:
chickens require little cream or milk Taste
it. then, to if it is just salty enough If too
salty, add little water if not salty enough,
add salt.
Put some -four in bowl and add water, little
by little. until it is smooth like cream. Then,
when the water is boiling stir the -four mix
ture in slowly, being careful not to put in too
much. Remove from the fire quickly after
thickening, the -four will deposit and the
gravy become thin.

In the flush of golden afternoon,

A somg-bird sang to his sweetheart, June,
Of a love that would live foreverI
That would die-ah never, never.
And the mellow notes swept out on the tide

We were happy as lovers ever,
FINE our hearts caught up the birds sweet song.
With hope that WAS high and love that was strong
And we sang we lazily drifted along,

That would die-ah! never, neveri
But the pleasures of earth too soon sped
They fade rs the sun from the river
And June has fled and the bird is dead,
And never again-ah, neveri

DEAR EDITOR: In THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE
of July 10 Amos L. Seaman gives the rule for
finding the golden number and the day of the
week OF any event in the past.
/ have a family Bible, left by my grand
father, in which is a record Of the birth Of 10
children; the day of the week, month, and
year are recorded.
! have tested Mr.. Seaman's rule with these
dates, and find it tallies with seven Of the 10
The three following do not agree with his (AIr
Seaman's) rule as / understand it, The dates
as recorded are: Born Thursday, Aug. q 1875;
figure 1t Tuesday. Born Saturday. Nov. a.
1875; / figure it Sunday. Born Thursday,
July 3. 1900; j figure it Monday Mr.. Seaman,
which is correct?
Are we living in the last years of the 18th or
18th century of the Christian Era? People
living in the year one of that era, | suppose,
were living in the first century; those living
in the year 10l had commenced on the second
century, and so on.
