the big barrel of Tom Shotwell, to
represent Bushnell's Barrel for
Boodlers, also the barrel of money
it took to persuade the last legisla-
ture to desist from having another
session, thus to save the state from
complete bankruptcy. Many other
wagons followed with similar rep
reservations of which space will
not permit us to tell. The parade
was II success and will leave a last

WITH great flourish Generals
somo Asa S. Bushnell says that Il
party "who is in complete control
of the government, in all its depart
ments, and in time Of profound
piece cannot meet its obligations
without going into debt should not
be continued in power" When the
hireling of George Is. Cox made
the above statement, he must have,
for n moment, forgotten that the
Republican party of the State Of
Ohio had made II deficit in the pub
lie funds OF over tUO millions OF
dollars in the three years last past,
that bonds or certificates of iudebt-
ednesS had been issued by the last
General Assembly to the amount
of half a MILTON Of dollars. That
Mark Hanna, the millionaire 0i
Cleveland, and who is Gov. Me-
Kinley's most ardent friend and
advisor into Whose hands fell these
certificates of indebtedness-ex-
cluded from.taXation-is the Shy
lock of Ohio, seems.also to be for
gotten by Mr.. Bushnell.
1t is Mr.. Bushnell's purpose as
well as Cox, Foraker! and Kurtz,
10 deceive the people, but in the
words of Lincoln, "you can fool all
the people part of the time; part OF
the people all the time; but never,
all the people ll.thei time" And
go 1t Is on State issues. The people
of Ohio have been fooled for the
past four years, but their eyes have
been opened and nothing but plain
truths will he tolerated.
The state of Ohlo's deficit il, in
proportion 10 her inhabitants, al
most ten times gs'great as the in
debtedness Of the United States.
Figures won't lie, any one can fig
ure IL up.

THAT the Populist party is side

Campbell meeting Populists docu'

persons calling themselves Popu'

last Tuesday wearing Bushnell

he denounces Governor Campbell and
the Democratic party, but hasn't a word
to say against George b. Cox and thu

true to his employers. The Republican

During campaign, the pickets of 8 certain regiment'found considerable dif1- culty in preventing the men absenting themselves without leave.
 One particularly sultry evening, while sentinels were pacing their beats with their tongues fairly hanging out of their mouths with heat, one of the guards observed a private approaching, who was staggering along under the load of an enor- nous watermelon under each arm.
 "Who goes there?"
 "Friend," answered the truant.
 "Advance, friend, and give the coun- .rsign."
 "Hain't got no counterSign," amiably replied the private, "but give: yer-er-a- a- war-ter-m -melin."
 Pretty soon the officer of the day came around and said to the sentinel, who was absorbed in munching a huge piece of watermelon stuck on the end of his bayO- net:
 "Did Perkins pass you just now?"
 "Yes, sir" .,>-.
 "Did he give you the countersign?" in- quired the lieutenant, taking a bite as the man presented arms,
 Well, no," said the sentinel, confden. tially: , :''The password Was Cholera but he said watermelon so passed him, and put the other half in your tent"
 "Did, eh ?" unused the officer. "Hum Watermelon, eh? We'll, suppose that was near enough"

 with which he degenerates, first in his own eyes, and secondly, in the eyes Of other people. His habits constantly call attention to the dry rot in his heart, and that continues to eat until his whole nor- al nature is blighted aud withered. It Is very sad to hear small boys swear-it is like looking at the black spots on the face of the sun. The boy begins by using slang, he then becomes coarse and vul- gar, and then by an easy transition he becomes profane. o, you who are teach CTS i'll our public schools, you who teach in the Sunday School, and especially you who are still more important teachers, in that you are fathers and mothers, what advice can give you more wholesome or timely than this: Teach the little ones that if they want to meet with true suc- cess in life "they must refrain their tongue from evil and their lips from speaking guile."
 In conclusion, what is the outcome of evil speaking? One word answers it, de- generation. Observation tells us that q life of sin weakens the body and shortens one's days. Evil speaking is one form of sin that gives no nourishment to either mind or body, and without it we must dee cay and die. It needs no expert to go through mans barn and tell the cattle that are well fed and those that are half starved. Neither is extra ability required to talk with a man five minutes and tell whether there is anything to him or wheth- CT he is nothing but a shell. The only an- tidote for this starvation is to be some- thing and to do something noble. Feed on that (which is meat and drink indeed to your souls." I sometimes look up and see rift in the heavens leading to the land of eternal light and beauty. But an angel stands guard over the entrance with a drawn sword to keep back the impure aud unclean. In my anxiety thus ad- dress the angel: Who are they that can enter your landP Without the least hest tation the angel answers "He that has clean hands and pure heart"

HE SAW THE JoKE.-Lord Fitznoodle, the second cousin of Lord Dundreary, had with his valet, the estimable James Yel- lowplush, come to America and gone west in the hope of bagging few grizzly bears and buffaloes. America and the Ameri- cans seemed to the noble lord tbeastly vulgar, doncher know" and this opinion he frankly told those Americans whom he favored with his lordly society. New ertheless fate compelled him to accept as travelling companion 8 rampant Ameri- can. They were travelling on horseback across the pTairies, and one day after g vain search for the settlement in which they were to spend the night, they came to a cross road which boosted charcoal blacksmith's hut and a sign post. The sign read "Mugg's corner, four miles or the right hand road. If you can't read ask the blacksmith"
 Thereat the American laughed long and loud, but the Englishman remained silent and pensive. ..
 II say, me good fellow" he expostula. ted, ''I cawn't see the joke, donoher know, What is it ?"
 If you don't see it,' replied the Amer jean, II shan't tell you. But I tell yot what I will do. If you see it before VI leave the innto-morrow TIl pay the bills. :
 All through the rest of the day anC evening the Englishman remained silent He was working the brain evolved by fivt centuries of culture. When the Ameri can retired to his straw mattress and an tediluvian spring, there had as yet dawnec no gleam of intelligence on the English mans face. But in the middle of the night the former was awakened by a loue knock on his door, accompanied by 2 hearty laugh.

 hear, for little heed seemed Jo be paid to them.
 I asked them why they did not go out and help, and they pointed to their case ments. Then l saw that they were pris- oners in their homes for across each case ment were the hard iron bars of law and the strong silken bars of custom. Yet, though these women were prisoners, they watched the scene with unabated interest, and when the two great parties flourished their clubs to keep away the tariff and sill yer bugaboos which were flying like mos quitos about the head of the giant, these women called to them to join forces and kill the vampire. From these barred easements went petition after petition try ing to turn the attention of the men to the blood drinking beast in the beloved giants bosom. In them they set penants of white inscribed "For God and Home and Native Land" to which they pointed ever and anon with earnest gaze
 "Ah," l thought to myself, "were these women free, they would strike straight at the vampire"
 And cried to the men again:
 "Why don't you mbar the easements and let your women help"
 "No, no, no :" came a chorus in reply. What would become of the home ?" "Who'd rock the cradle 7" "They would grow so masculine!" "They would want all the offices !" ''The bad women would come too !" "They would grow so inde- pendent they wouldn't marry :"
 The vampire itself lifted it's ugly head and shot it's red tongue out spitefully and in the babel of voices I awoke.

 In addressing recent public meeting in Glasgow, Premier Roseberry said "We know how much of crime and how much of all the evils of civilization are to be traced to drink. And there is this further danger in this question; see 1t coming in that shape, nearer and nearer, that owing to the enormous influence yielded, directly or indirectly, by those who are concerned in upholding the drink traffic, we are approaching a condition of things perilously near the corruption of our political system.

 l dreamed mighty giant whom the people loved lay sick. And men gathered about him in groups as he lay, and listen- ed to his pulse beats and watched his breathing. Yet no two groups seemed agreed as to his malady nor as to the treat ment he required.
 As looked more closely saw with horror 8 huge vampire nestling to him, constantly drawing his hearts blood; yet, strange to say, but few of the multitude of men gathered around the giant seemed to recognize in this creature the cause of his malady. Some few, indeed, made oc- casional efforts to drive it away, and one small group seemed intent upon killing 1t, but all their efforts were intellectual be- cause one of the larger groups seemed to regard the vampire as something to be protected instead of killed. The other large group seemed either utterly careless of or oblivious to the creature.
