CUNNING For DEMOCRACY.

SlEDIroR ENTERPRIsE: You will surely
give me the floor to speak to the local in
which am represented as ''gOing gun

should have said, "gOing pitchforking
FOR democrats" for when authority was
granted to say something, l had that
dangerous weapon in my hand; but no
sore was shed that day, nothing but
Heat drops of sweat.
However, | did facetiOusly remark

was inspired at the time by the
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. utteran-
ms Of Hon. Mike Harter, whose giant
craftsmanship had evolved plan for the
determination Of anarchists, which was
Gimply, openly and boldly to step up to
shem wherever found, and with gun in
kGnd 'blOw the top Of their heads OIL, "
without trial by jury or benefit Of clergy.
What a. grand opening this plan would
give personal and political enemies to
SsmOve each other. and not be subjected
ssan insulting trial by jury and capital
punishment, which has been serious
drawback to the massacre industry.
But our Mike turned out to be not such
a ''holy terror" after all, but instead as
ld-mannered man as ever made a
snap decision and ignored the masses.
After yentilating his death-On-the-spOt
ansrchy-exteminating discovery, he ap-
pears to have hardly let the sun go down
GA his wrath, but he took his pen in
Raul and wrote as touching and beauti-
snl a tribute to fOrgivness as ever fell

PJ. LINDER, Esq, Wellington, Ohio,
Dear Sir: 1t occurs to me that it il
Eester to forgive than to kill our enemies
X the gentleman desired my cremation
ho certainly has not my i'll will. Your
truly, MICHEAL ID. HARTER.
That melts us down and we accep
she situation. We see no necessity to 6
cunning for democracy. 1t has kille'

Local democratic disgust had its Origi
IN an outside intervention and pressur
which has no parallel for political gal
Hmay be best illustrated by suppOsi
hon. If after Ben. Harrison had got tn
presidency and there was a pOstotic
contest here, how would republican
have liked it if Congressman Wickhal

@rd succeeded in hyptOnizing the gOC
Hsnnamaker and he had acted accOrdin
aoSerage's wishes and made his man IL

republican said: 1--WE would have bee
mad enough to have made kindling woo

The false pretenses Of this reform a,
