DIR. Gallagher, the recently lber-
ated Irish political prisoner, is hope
leSSly insane. Mrs. Maybrick, anoth-
er victim Of British injustice and hard
dealing. is not insane, but hopelessly
i'll and not expected to survive the
winter. Her old mother stands by
her devOtedly and will to the end.
There is something fatal in the air of
those terrible British prisons, and
once the doors close on a victim, inno-
cent or guilty, there is no release I'M
til death, or seldom any.

1t is easier to tell how far the toad
will jump after his leap is measured
than before. The rule holds equally
good in political representations, but
the general impression is that the free
silver bactracian is too heavily loaded
with silver shot to jump very far at
once.

1t Won't Work.

The Republican press is extremely
dropped. It denounces Mr.. Bryan for
saying that the campaign of education
will continue, and quotes with satis-
faction the post-election utterances of
such newspapers as the New Orleans
Times Democrat. the Savannah Nesos,
the Mobile Register. the Vicksburg
Commercial Herald aud the Jackson
vile fla Citizen. which are advertis-
ing that the Democratic party abandon
its fight for the people and become
again mere cog in the Plutocratic
machine.
The above mentioned newspapers
will have about as much influence in
determining the future policy of the
Democratic party as will the avowed
Republican newspapers. Their atti-
tude during the recent campaign was
perfectly well understood. especially
by Democrats. They were in the same
category with the st. Louis Republic
pretending to support the Democratic
ticket and platform, for fear of losing
their circulation, but in reality doing
all they dared to help in the election
of Mckinley. There were probably
no newspaper offices in the country in
which the announcement of the result
! of the election was received with more
satisfaction than in those of the news
papers which the Republican press is
parading as representative Democratic
organs
All concerned may as we'll accept
the fact now as later that the Demo-
cratic party will not consult its enc
mics as to its policy. whether those en-
emies be open or disguised. l. viii

The banquet of the New York Cham
Der of Commerce Tuesday night was
not SO much a social function, where
representatives of the commercial in
terests of great city assembled to in
terchange the offices of hospitality, as
it was political gathering where mon
ey barons and their hangers-on met to
gorge. drink and jubilate over McKin-
ley's victory. Many of those present
had contributed generously to the
slush fund. which played so important
a service in securing the triumph of
the gold standard alliance. and in their
Joy over the result, which money had
been so large a factor in achieving.
these jewellers threw discretion and
decency to the dogs, and gave free
vent to their sentiments OF contempt
and aversion for the 5000, 600 honest
voters who, with their ballots, opposed
the corruptions which colossal greed
has grated upon our government and
laws.
Some of the speakers at the banquet
went to the limit of their vocabularies
in attacking the honor and questioning
the honesty of the citizens who had
voted for bimetallism and for the
wrestling of the national government
from the influence which threaten its
life.
Mr.. Orr. the president of the New
York Chamber of Commerce, particu-
larly distinguished himself for the ran
cor and vilifcation with which he as
sailed the morality and patriotism oi
the men who opposed the gold stand
ard, and Bourte Cochran was there,
too, with his reutable oratory and his
reduced brogue, charging upon the
bimeta1Iist voters of the country his
campaign-worn charges of reputation
and anarchy upon the reform forces o.

The Fate Of ! western Man.

New York maintains its high repu-
tation as the wickedest city in the
world. No doubt there are parts OF
this country in which there are fever
churches and fewer policemen. but
they do not cut so large a figure in tho
criminal records as merry Gotham. At

Nevertheless. here was a man who

and had neverhad anything but peace
full experiences. He had been a from
tiersman and had braved the terrors
OF Cripple Creek, whose inhabitants,
according to the dramatist Of aGay
New York, sing as their vesper hymn:
"We'll play you poke for dollar or your
life;
Wen chuck you dice for toothpick or
your wife,"
For years he lived among the storied
perils of the wild West, and never had
button shot of his coat. But in an
evil moment he decided to come to
New York, city presided over by the
most pacific of tea-drinking Mayors
and guarded, under the direction OF
the toothsome Roosevelt. by the very
finest civil service police in the world.
In the crowded streets of this great
village. under the watchful eyes of the
guardians-of peace that passeth nm
derstaudlng, Mr.. Arbuckle fell In with
such terrors as Denver knew not and
Cripple Creek meyer imagined. Even

taken his money or his lie. but here
he lost both.

Group is terror TO young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,

object OF this item. The origin OF
Group is common cold, Children
who are subject to it take cold very
easily and Group is almost sure to fol-

this is soon followed BY peculiar
rough cough, which is easily recog-
nized and will never be forgotten by
one who has heard it, The time to
act is when the child first becomes
hoarse. If Chamberlain's Cough Rem

stuff One thing I saw that surprised
me was so many children going shop
ping. Little bits of tots all alone. On
one of our trips saw a little bit of a
girl standing on the pavement, she
was out in the suburbs. and rs our car
came along she beckoned the car to
stop. When it stopped the Conductor
ran out and picked that little child up
in his arms and brought her in and
seated her way to end of the car. She
had basket and purse in one hand.
After we had gone way down town the
car stopped, and that same Conductor
came and took that child and set her
out on the pavement. just thought
we country folks would no more have
sent a child of that age to a store
than nothing; yet those city children
know more of the city life and city
ways than many grown up folks in the
country. ! had good many laughs
inside of me to see groops of little
girls going along the pavement with
short dresses not much below their
knees. They had such little spindle
legs. they made me think of lot of
sand hill cranes. They looked so fun
ny as they went trotting along. l felt
as though l should love to take about
a hundred of them out in the country
TO see them gather nuts and romp
among the rocks and hills. 1t would
put more flesh on those little legs of
theirs.
After sight-eeeing until lunch, Ida
said, How would you like some soup?"
Now l am very fond of such, good
marrow bone soup as l make at home
sometimes. / thought she would like
plate of soup. so I said would like
some. When we reached the restau-
rant, where she and great many of
the teachers go for something out of
the ordinary way. We took our seats
at table and a waiter girl came and
took Ida's order. Soon the girl
brought her a cup of coffee and some
sandwiches. then she brought me a
plate with a bowl of liquid stuff, a
plate of little scalloped crackers and a
cup of coffee. l said to myself would
like to know if they call this soup? As
took my spoon and stirred the stuff up
1 saw little thing bob up, then another
until l had seen six. At last I got
hold of one and l found it was little
oyster. My. but wasn't there lots of
soup from six little baby oysters?
Well, | fished ont the oysters and ate
them and what crackers l wanted.
But they didn't hurt me bitl o
well, it all was good. first rate, but I
shall not call for oyster soup next time
go there. After dinner we had seen
SO many things we took the cars for
home as we had expected to shoot the
chutes, but the ehutes were not shoot
ing when we arrived at the shooting
place. So we took the next car home
and took horse and wagon and rode
out in the country to see friend. But
my! wasn't | tired when We got home
at night! T. P. r.

upon the banquet by Mr.. Cleveland
himself, who wrote his regrets that be

loyal lovers of a free government and

Surely these abused millions will
hardly feel inclined to accept this
abuse in spirit of submission or ac-
quiescence. The wholesale aggres-
sions made upon the interests and
rights of the West aud South by the
element of which the new York Cham
Der of Commerce is the crystallization
did more than all other agencies COM
biued to unite the people of these two
sections into the solid and determined
phalanx which met the machine Re-
publican and Democrat boilers at the
polls last November and came within
few thousand votes of taking from
the trusts, the corporations and their
dependent interests their opportunities
to rob by law and their long-enjoyed
influence in directing the affairs of gov
ernment.
The New York Chamber of Com
merce and the representatives of those
vast aggregations of wealth, acquired
in so short period, and much of it by
such devious methods under favoring
legislation, would do well to heed the
