The latest returns received show that
the Democrats won a big victory in Flor
ida, but how big it will take some time
to figure out, for Florida voted the Aus
tralian ballot for the first time, and the
counting is slow, while. the recent storm
blew down all the Hsgrayh wires. It
is probable that Florida has cast the
bigges, majority in her history.

SAID BY PARROTS.
Proof That the Birds Knew What
They Were Saving.

The old idea that parrots did not un-
derstand what they said seems to have
been exploded by stories Of instances
where the birds have used phrases ex-
actly adapted to the circumstances.
There is the story of parrot whose
feathers had been singed before it was
rescued from burning house. The
parrot said:
THAT was ID hot
A sailor sold a talking parrot to a
preacher. 1t talked sailor talk in a
way that distressed it's owner, who con-
suited a friend and was told that the
way to break the bird of the habit of
swearing was to thrash it soundly
The thrashing was duly administered
When the bird gots it's tongue untwisted
it's first remark was:
THAT was h-ll of a cyclone"
A bird that had been hung out in a
tree was forgotten, when a thunder
shower came up and drenched it. The
bird sat silent for awhile, but the rain
kept falling faster and faster. The
bird began to scream:
Its wet, wet! Gee, but it's wet;
rains like all creation"
When a parrot gets hungry it will,
if alone, become nervous, working from
one end of it's perch to the other and
back again, looking about as if it Won
dered where all the folks were. Then
it begins to mediate out loud:
"Polly's hungry, dreadful Where's
Pollys master? Polly's tired. Polls
thirsty. It's hot; Polly wants a
cracker" Then should some one stir in
an adjoining room the bird screams it's
Polly wants cracker" adding
quick to it sometimes.
In a Brooklyn house there is a par
rot. One day the cat came in and
looked at the bird, licking its chops to
think how good the breast would taste
Just then the mistress of the house
came in, and, seeing the cat, drove it
out, saying:
Scat! Get out! You'll eat Polly"
The bird sat with it's head cooked on
one side, silent. A couple of days later
the cat got into the room unnoticed by
anyone but the bird. Suddenly the par-
rot gave a yell, and then said:
"Cat eat Polly! Get out! Get ont,
S-c-a-t!"
The scat" was long drawn out. and
was repeated with a jerk. The mistress
got there just in time to see the cat leap
at the bird. When the two were separ-
ated the bird said:
"Polly's eat. Polly's eat. Cat eat
Polly. Boo-hoo!" 1t had heard the
children cry, and initiated the voice as
nearly as it could.-New York Sun.

FOR GOOD TIMES.
See That Republican Congressman
Are Elected.

FrOm the Stockton independently
Republicans should not underestimate
the value OF winning the Congressman
this year and they will see the import
ance of the contest If they give the mat
ter little thought There is now no
doubt in the minds of the supporters of
the republican party that the election
OF Mckinley is assured and that he will
sweep the country by the largest plu-
rahties that have been given since the
days Of the war. All indications point
to that result of the national campaign
and the voice of the people in the State
elections in the East give good reason
for the prediction that the Republicans
VIII sweep the country in November
The business interests of the land are
with the Republicans, the farmers. who
are watchful for their best interests
are joining the throngs of supporters of
Mckinley, and the wage earners of the
land, who have suffered the past three
years through the depression brought
about by the enactment of the Wilson
bill, are in line for the election of Nc
kinley. Thinking men cannot doubt the
election of Mckinley, and that he will be
the next President is as certain as any,
thing in politics can be- The signs of
the times point to that result and after
the Windstorm of the fusion forces is
spent the Republicans will take charge
Of the Government and begin the dis
tribution of the plums of office to the
faithful. The Postoffices that are worth
having will be filled, the Mints will be
cleaned out, the customs service will be
improved by the removal of the other
fellows so far as can be done and the
Republicans will take the places of the
Democrats who have had charge of the
anairs OF government since President
Cleveland went into office The Con-
gressmen who are elected by Republi-
cans VIII be looked to by President Nc
klnley for advice in the distribution of
favors and districts unrepresented by
men who are in accord with the Pres
iGent will be overlooked. That Is a prac-
tical view of the necessity for the cleo
ticn of Republican Congressman, but
there are other and better reasons for
the support of the ticket which will not
be lost sight of by earnest partisans. All
things considered it is most important
to Republicans to elect their Congress-
man, and the voter who throws his vote
from his nominee through friendliness
or neighborly feeling for a good fellow
does wrong to himself and to his party
which he may regret. Let us reach out
for everything in sight and run all
branches of the Government once again
to bring about good times.
