A Deadly Parallel.
(From the Philadelphia Ledger.)

(From the EhltaQelpnla Leuger.
The course of the Bryan cn.npaign has
recalled memories of the Greeley cam
paign in 1872, to which it bears many
striking analogies. Greeley was first
nominated by liberal Republicans op-
posed to Gen. Grant for second term,
and his nomination was endorsed by the
Democrats by an almost unanimous
vote. 1t was ireceiyed with enthusiasm,
and for time it looked as though the
Republican party would be defeated.
Greeley conducted personal campaign,
and was greeted by crowded houses eve
rywhere. The utmost enthusiasm pre-
vailed, but there were "middle-of-the-
road'' Democrats who preferred Grant to
Greeley, and some who could not vote
for either, so two other tickets were put
in the field. Greeley continued to stump
the country, but Grant remained in the
seclusion of the White House. In the
meantime, however, the Republicans
had been perfecting their party organizn-
ton. At that time there wsre a great
many States holding elections before
November. The returns therefrom were
Gdk6u db nIIdWnt cAOWAuB WulOu way Unt
political wind was blowing, and much
| to the surprise of every one they
showed Republican gains everywhere
This had a dispiriting effect on the emo
tionnl followers Of Greeley, and at the
November election he was overwhelm-
lngly defeated both in the electoral and
the popular vote. We have no dou BIT that
the analogies thus for noted between
Greeley's and Bryan's campaign will be
continued to the end. Greedy was bet
ter man than Bryan. and his election
would have brought no great misfortune
upon the country, but he found it impos.
sible to fuse liberal Republicans and
| Democrats into one harmonious party,
as Bryan, the candidate of the Populists.
is finding difficulty in commanding the
votes of true Democrats. The united
vote. which was expected to elect
Greeley, proved to be smaller than the
Democratic vote alone might have beer
if the party had had . Democrat at the
head of the ticket. So. also, In the com
ing election the vote for Bryan Is not to
be found by adding the Populist anl
Democratic votes together. 1t will prob
ably be less than the Democratic vot,
alone at the asst Presidential election
Fusion Is a nice thing to talk about, but
it is not often that complete fusion Cal
be brought about. At the coming cleo
ton 1T IL very likely that million Dem
ooratic votes will be cast for Palmer ant
Buckner, and half a million for McKin
ley and the Populists, divided as they
are on the subject of the Vice Presiden
oy, can scarcely mako up this grsa,
loss.

WHY AM 1 so TIREDs
Why Do ! Feel So Weak and
Run Down.
Nervous Debility. Science Pro-
claims q Certain Remedy.

You have lost your old-time snap
and vim. Work that you used to do
with ease, now tires you. You often
feel dull, dispirited and without ambi-
ton. You pass more or less sleepless
nights, wake mornings, tired and IN
reflEshed, have little or no appetite
for breakfast, your head feels dull,
there is bad taste in the mouth, and
your bowels are constipated. You go
about your employment with a sense
OF weakness or WEAKNESS, and a dis
taste for taking hold of your work.
Besides, you are nervous, irritable and
often blue without apparent cause.
Then look at yourself.
Mrs. Andrew Mitchell, of 525 Kemp
ton St., New Bedford, Mass, tells you
that you can be cured, as she was
cured when weak, tired and nervous.

THE OTHER SIDE.
What Cavanagro the italian Had to Say.

Yesterday Deputy Sheriff Bucknam
went to Breeport and arrested Cavanagro
the Italian of whom Mr.. Clark of that
town complained for abusive treatment
Cavanagro made no resistance to the
officer. He is by no means an ordinary
Italian. For 81 years he claims that he
was the interpreter for the courts in
Boston and received high salary. He
lost the position, the officer said, on &C.
oount Of his habits. He speaks English
very we'll.
Cavanagro denied that he had abused
Clark in any way. He merely demanded
the money due him. He said Clark owed
him $1S and refused to pay him, and
when he heard Clark's sister say "her
brother would never pay him in Gods
| world" he left the house. He says he
has not drank a drop all summer. He
took the officer about the place and
showed him we'll he had dug, and
other work he had performed. Mr..
Clark admitted that he owed Cavanagro
81, and by instruction of Mr.. Bucknam
paid 1t. Cavanagro was taken to the
jail and will have his hearing probably
today. The officer says he did not heal
any complaint of disturbance or bad be.

A very rare and beautiful blossom
opened at Mrs. Stubling's greenhouse
last night or early this morning. 1t was
a flower of the night-blooming cereus.
The blossom was about six inches in
length by four in breadth and was bell
shaped. It was of a creamy whiteness,
the center filled with yellow silk-like
strands of great number. It is years in
blooming, and even then lasts only a
few hours. The blossom much resem-
bles the flower of the Gods, which
opened few months ago. Mrs. Stu
bling has had the plant ever since she
has been in the city and this was its
first bloom.
Capt. Waud, Agent Allaway and
Purser Butler of the D. P. & A. n. Co.,
were recently. the recipients of some
very handsome tokens of esteem by lady
tourists who, pleased with the courtesies
extended them by these boat officials,
thus showed their appreciation. The
gifts were solid silver umbrella clasps
with the owners names engraved on
them. The gifts speak volumes for the
polite attentions of the boat officers to
patrons of the line, which has been a
great factor in inducing travel. People
who journey are appreciative of these
courtesies, for though they cost nothing
they are seldom met with on the part of
the employees of public carriers.

two weeks illness at Burns, and tri-
fling accident that happened to him
while fording shallow-looking stream
in his light wagon. 1t was the usual
fording place, and residents of that
country paid no attention to it. He was
much surprised to find on crossing that
the water was much deeper than it
looked, and many of the things in the
wagon bed became damaged by becom-
ing wet. He was further discounted by
finding that the farther he went across
the stream the deeper the water became.
He elevated his feet to tie dashboard,
and still the water rose. The innocent
looking stream finally competed him to
stand on the seat before he reached the
opposite bank. He. afterwards found
that the wagon beds of that country
were built higher than his own. Mr..
Jacobsen. when asked about the politics
of Eastern Oregon, refused to be inter-
viewed. He said his trip was purely for
business, that he had been successful,
