Men who wish work, men who wish bet.
ter wages, men who wish profits on their
industry are all interested in the tariff,
and that issue, therefore, despite all thai
Democratic dodgers may do, will remain
in the hands of the people as one of the
most important to be decided at the
coming election.

One of the notable features OF the cam

two parties in respect to able orators. On
the Republican side there are now in the

Personal Attendant.
Miss tombstone Bennett is RESPONSE

Her personal attendant is not a maid

and play the part of the actress maid.

Conveyed BY a WHALE.
Pacific Ocean Ships Accompanied on 9
Voyage by n Monster of the Deep.

Occan SHIPS accompanied on =
Voyage by a Monster Of the Deep.
Pacific ocean whales are sometimes
very friendly, especially oil the coast
of Los Angeles county, Cal. On more
than one occasion they have astonished
if not alarmed sailing parties who have
been becalmed.
These whales, says the New York
Journal, are harmless, and their atten-
tons are merely from curiosity, but to
have several of them floating in close
proximity is not altogether pleasant.
What is supposed to be the same whale
has recently earned reputation for
friendliness. During the summer
months it frequently met large steam
er off shore and either followed it along
or played about, entertaining the pas
sengers by spouting. On one trip the
whale placed itself ahead of the steamer
and swan with it so deliberately that
the captain was obliged to slow down
and finally stop, fearing to run into the
huge creature.
On another occasion the steamer had
on board as passengers the Medical So
ciety of California, consisting of sew
eral hundred physicians. When about
half way over, the whale appeared and
at once displayed unusual friendliness.
1t swan up to the vessel, and turning
followed her along so near that the
spray of it's spouting came aboard and
the eye of the monster could be plainly
seen. The steamer slowed up for few
minutes occasionally as the whale be-
came too friendly, and the passengers
had fine opportunity to see a whale
but a few feet away.
