A KANSAS farmer was arrested the

boring farmeress, and az there is no law
against OSCILLATION Of the kind, the charge
of. assault and battery was preferred

the Kansas court which can convert
kissing into assault and battery, and
maintain it's reputation for equity and
Justice, will need investigation.

The st. Paul Dispatch publishes a tell
ing resum of the dolngs of the national

pSAA
ing resume of the dolngs of the national
democratic administration, as follows:
A full and complete fiscal year has now
transpired in the second term of Cleve-
lands administration OF the government.
TIE people now nave the means of judging
whether the government has been wisely
or distructively administered under Cleve-
lands second regime. Since the republi-
cans surrendered the executive and the
legislative departments into the hands of
the democrats there has been a constant
change for the worse in administrator Of
the treasury department. Up to tina time
the gold reserve had never for one moment
been impaired, the surplus was such as to
create no uneasiness in regard to its con-
t%inuance. the national debt was in steady
progress of reduction, and American Sc
curities commanded a premium everywhere.
How has it been since? Since the advent
Of this administration the federal revenues
have been steadily falling off, and as if to.a &C.
celerate their depreciation. the first purely
plitical act of complete democratic control
was the passage of an act whose very pur-
pose seemed to be to hasten national bank
ruptcy. Instead OF continuing the reduc-
ton of the national debt, which had con-
tlnued in a steady and healthy progression
from the close of the war, we were treated
with the spectacle of its increase beyond
$500 900, at a rate of interest that had
not been known except Din active wal
times themselves. Both branches of con-
gress, with the executive, were under the
absolute control of the democrats, and
while themselves arguing the necessity of
creating these great loans, their incompe-
tency was displayed in suffering their own
administration to create them without pro-
viding for a rate of interestthat would con-
form to the actual condition Of the money
market. Through their lncapacity, inter
nal dissentions, supineness an unnecessary
annual interest Of more than $1O,OOO,OOO has
been imposed for thirty years upon the
people. Worse than all their utter inan-
cial incapacity has forced the government
to place itself in the power Of a foreign
syndicate that has been levying a grievous
toll upon our foreign commerce by forcing
the rate of exchange upwards to such an
extent that it has become a source Of daily
oppression and exaction to American mer-
chants, and IS finally wrung from the
masses through the purchases they made
of merchandise from abroad.

Democratic sentiment in Carroll Is anti
Gorman-that is, the majority Of Democrats
Of the county are against Mr.. German.
Whether this sentiment is sound or unsound
is not a question. Il sKisis, and il has right
to be heard in the election Of United States
Senator 10 succeed Senator Gibson. There
fore the Democratic nominees for State Sen
ator and the House of Delegates should he
anti German men. As to the nominees for
purely local Offices il matters not whether they
are German men or anti Gorman. Il is also
true that, while the majority have right to
control, il Is neither just nor polite that the
majority should be yindietive and give no
consideration TO the minority. 4 vindictive
majority will soon develop into minority.
The American people, above all else, believe
in fair play, snd they will not tolerate an over
bearing aud vindiciiye spirit.
To win in Carroll solid Democratic vote
is necessary. This can only be secured by 8
spirit of fairness being shown. II the anti
German Democrats secure the Legislative
ticket. they should ask no more. Ifthe German
men concede this, as il is generally under.
stood they will, there is no reason why there
should not be a full Democratic vote for the
whole ticket, and Democratic victory in
November.
We believe that all Democrats are agreed
that the Legislative nominees shall be anti
German men. Ifthis be true, there is no ex'
euse for contests at the primaries and in con-
vention, and those who promote them are
more interested in local supremacy them in

The Savannah News says No doubt the
iron and steel manufacturers are surprised
that they were so greatly mistaken about the
effect of the Wilson tariff Many, il not The
majority Of them, viewed that tariff with the
greatest alarm. and vet il has been in opera
ton but liitle while and the iron and steel
mills have more work at a tair profit than
they can do Recently Mr.. Joseph ID. Weeks,
the secretary Of the Iron and Steel AssOcia-
ton, explained the increasing activity Of the
English iron mills by the statement that the
American pills are unable to dll all the
orders offered them. They have more bust
ness than they can attend TO and have to re-
fuse contracts. This condition of affairs is
what the democrats predicted. The predie-
ton, however. was the occasion among re-
publieans of sneer and laughter. The repub-
licans are not laughing and sneering now,
however, at the prediction, because the iron
and steel trade is enjoying extraordinary
prosperity. And the prosperity promises TO
continue for long time. This prosperity
deprived the republicans of their one great
issue. namely, high protective tariff. They
are, therefore, considerably alarmed in re-
speet to the next national campaign. With
out tariff issue the outlook for republican
success is rather gloomy,

Would Attempt Radical Measures



Ii the Republicans should succeed in carry
inc the State this fall and establish themselves
in control Of the law making machinery. there
is but little doubt but that they wOuld attempt
radical measures in order to perpetuaie their
power. Since the making of the constitution
of 1867 Baltimore city has more than doubled
in population. while most Of the counties have
barely held their own in this respect. Under
the plan Of the present constitution, Baltimore
ciy' instead Of being entitled 10 twenty -one
REPRESENTATIVES in the Legislature, as given
her for population of about 200, OO0in 1867,
should have about fifty, and if the State is
thrown into making a new constitution, which
would be one of the first things attempted by
the Republicans, the power Of Baltimore city,
which already dominates the State to great
extent, would become absolute with as much
influence as all the rest Of the State combined.
The making Of a new constitution by Re-
nublieans would legislate every officer in the
State out of office, upset and render worthless
the established construction of the fundamen-
tai law, and land us In confusion and chaos.
The cost. too. would be enormous, as a con-
yention would have to be called for the pur-
nose, and the delegates paid for their services
Amending the constitution, whilst objectiOna-
bic in some respects because of its patchwork
character IS still for many reasons to be pre-
ferred at this time The Republican consti-
tutiop of 1864 was such an i'll constructed
fabric that il lasted but three years and they
can not make one now that will satisfy the
people for even that long If we must have
a new constitution it should be made by
Democrats who have the property interests at
stake, and who have ever stood for individual
rights and liberties,
