A Dog as a PAGE.

In South Kensington one DAY last week,
writes correspondents, I was struck by the
manner In which a lady had evidently traibed
her dog. The streets were dirty. The lady had
a parcel In one hand, an umbrella in the other.
Her dress, although what women call a short
one, would have touched the mud had IL not
been held up. And 1t was TO This she bad

side, Just pace behind her. he held the train
OF her well-made gown In his teeth as carefully
and as daintily as q retriever carries game.
Never once did the dog allow the dress to touch
the ground. It was evidently a daily task car

A Mastery Speech.

The more the great spesch of Hon.
Thomas B. Reed at Old Orchard, last Sat-
urday, is studied the more its strength will
be appreciated. 1t is political classic, and
will well repay more than one reading. In
its clearness of statement, its comprehen-
sive grasp of the issues involved in the
present campaign, it's convincing array of
facts, and the irresistible logic of its con-
illusions, it viii justly rank among the finest
of the many able political addresses which
Mr.. Reed has contributed to the support
aud advancement of Republican principles.
1t is an address which will exert a power
full inf fence far beyond the first congress
sional district or the State of Maine.

Governor Cleaves addressed. an enthusi-
astic Republican assemblsge at North An
son, last evening, in ringing speech. He
showed how the Ubiquitous tariff bill aims
to ipjure Names advantages; how Demo-
cratic Congress has reduced or destroyed the
duty on that which the farmers of Maine
produce. He contracted the excellent
financial condition of the State
under Republican management with
the deplorable condition of the nations
finances under Democratic misrule, in such
convincing argument as to leave no founda-
ton for the silly charges certain Democratic
stump speakers in this State have essayed
to make. The address was an admirable
one, and those places in the State at which
it will be possible for the Governor to
speak are to be congratulated.

Stultifcati0n.

1.-The Democracy of the land plead most
earnestly for the speedy completion Of the
tariff legislation which their representative
have undertaken; but they demand not less
earnestly that no stress of necessity shall
tempt those they trust to the abandonment
of Democratic principles" HI =.
So wrote President Cleveland at the close
of bis letter to Chairman Wilson. This
morning the bill of sale is law and the
author of the Wilson letter had pow
er to prevent it but has been tempted
by "stress of necessity" and has yielded !;
has abandoned Democratic principles, has
deserted those who supposed him better
than his party; has proved faithless to his
record for backbone" He is on record
in black and white as appealing to Con-
gress to "strenuously insist upon party
honesty and good faith and sturdy adhe-
renee to Democratic principles He
undertook, in unprecedented manner,
to bully Congress into defeating
the Senate bill. He was willing then to step
outside his executive station, to effect pur-
pose, but now in the performance of execu-
tive duties, duties entrusted to him and
performance of which is expected of him he
has not the moral courage to perform them
"How can we face the people after in
dulging in such outrageous determinations
and violations of principles?" This pertinent
question Mr.. Cleveland asked more than q
month ago. 1t is still unanswered. In
shrinking from vetoing the bill of sale he
has placed himself particeps criminis; he
has stultif1ed himself.

"When needs must there are queer con-
tortions in the attitude of Democratic lead
ers. They are now telling US that there
wasn't but little difference between the
Senate and the House tariff bills after all !;
that the new measure will be a boon to
business; that after all the Democratic
party knows just how to run this country.
No difference between the Senate and House
bills. For what pray, was the country held
in weary suspense for months, all business
sidetracked until the extent of obstruc-
tons to be placed on the track could be
ascertained? Why did Grover Cleveland
write to MI. Wilson:
"There is no cause for mistaking or mis-
experimenting the feeling and the temper of
the rank and file of the Democracy.
They are downcast under the as
sertion that their party fails in ability
to manage the government, and they are
apprehensive that efforts to bring about
tariff reform may fail; but they are much
more downcast and apprehensive in their
fear that Democratic principles may be sur
rendered.
Grover was right. The rank and file of
Democracy are downcast, they realize the
full truth of the inability of their party to
manage the government, they know
that Democratic principles have been
surrendered and it only disgusts
the better class of Democrats to read
the twaddle, the crow eating, the per-
version of truth, the twisting of sentiment,
the abandonment of every principle by
Democratic organs and stump speakers.

A Great Mistake.

Congress, controlling the Democratic party
by reason of their majority, and endeavor
to accomplish results which are absolutely
Inconsistent with the business interests of
this country.
1t would be great mistake for the peo-
pie of the United States to suppose that the
action of the Senate, so much blamed by the
Democratic party, and so much attacked by
the people of the country in general, was to
be deemed entirely the result of personal
feeling. The truth is that the action of the
conservative senators on many subjects is
the result, not of their individual opinions,
but the result of the business interests
which surround them. A senator from the
state of New Jersey could not be reckless
with the business interests of his constit-
uency, like a senator from Arkansas; and
even senator from Arkansas, like Mr..
Jones, who has devoted patience and intel
ligence to this tariff question, although not
surrounded by business interests which con-
troll him, was irresistibly borne in the direc-
ton of the Senate bill as it finally passed
that body.
The reason why the Democratic party
has been failure is reason so simple
that it is a wonder that we did not under
stand more fully and completely that this
result must take place. 1t was inevitable.
The Democratic party has had, in the last
30 years, no underlying principle on which
it was united from one end of the country
to the other. This is not said as reproach
it is said simply as an historical fact. That
such should be the fact, also, is entirely
natural. A party which has been in the
minority for long period of time gathers
together all the people who are opposed to
the party actually in power, and opposed
for different reasons. 1t is only when they
endeavor to combine and to take positive
and affirmative action themselves, thst we
begin to realize the tremendous diversity of
opinion which was masked under the SEEM
ing unauimity of opposition. That the in
capacity to control was so great az has
been shown during the past year, no one
ever dreamed. Not even the bitterest enemy
of the Democracy ever prophesied any such
thing ~ has actually become the history of
the country. That they should fall short of
an exhibition of ability to run the country
in manner suitable and satisfactory to its
people seemed foregone conclusion; but
