AS illustrating the sweeping character
of the Republican victories in the last
election ex-Congressman Yoder of Ohio
tells the following story: "In one of the
counties in Ohio German was running
for sheriff on the Democratic ticket. He
felt very confident of election, but when
he read the returns he found that he
was showed under by about 1000 ma
jority. This reused his ire, and he said
to his wife: Dot settles it. We will
move out of dis shtate, where dey treats
a Democrat like dis Yust you pack oop
our things right away unit git ready to
move away. He left the house in great
wrath, but in about an hour he returned
and found his wife tearing up the car
pets and taking down the curtain poles.
'Shtop dot, Katrina, said the German.
'Yust you let dem carpets alone But
vat is der matter NIT you, John?' asked
his wife. 'Yust a leedle vile ago you
said git ready to move, unit now you
say don't git ready to move. Well,
dot Is so, did say dat, but l yust been

such statement "most astonish-
ing bit of public information" How
ever, if the Visitor will again consult
"bulletin No. TO-" which it gives as

"more astonishing bit OF public

Chapter on Cheapness.

With cheap bread. cheap meat and cheaper
clothing in 1896, it will take good deal Of
courage to try to make calamity a political
issue.-New York World.
But you forget cheap wages, which al
ways travel in the same coach with
cheap bread, cheap meat and cheaper
clothing" In fact, cheap wages compel
the cheapness of bread, meat and cloth
ing, and when cheap wages strike the
people they are more likely than not "to
make calamity political ISSUE" Wage
earners always have decided objection
TO putting less money than usual into
their pockets.

At political meeting held at Robe
line, La, one of the principal speakers
was Senator Blanchard. The senator
took occasion to denounce THAT he had
voted one way in the house ON the sugar
question and another way in the senate
as a base and malicious falsehood. F" We
believe that Senator Blanchard is right.
Our recollection is that he voted the
same way upon every occasion and each
time against the best interests of his
neighbors and friends-the sugar plant
ers of the state of Louisiana.

The republican plan of putting
goodly tariffon wool and wooden goods
and on lumber of all kinds, and hori-
zontal raise of 10 per cent on Wilson
bill rates or other commodities, except
where such increase would make
rates above the Mckinley schedule,
is an excellent expedient for temper
ary relief and is a credit to Chairman
Dingley of the ways and means COM
mittee. AS another Immediate issue
of bonds is probable, it would also
seem wise to authorize the low rate
issue as proposed in the house. How
ever, the NoRTHERNER believes the
tariff should be so fixed as to raise
revenue enough for governmental
expenses, thus obviating the necessity
of issuing bonds after the present
emergency is past.
