an official bone that was handed
him by a Democratic Presi-
dent" says the Washington
Post of a recent date, "but he
quits off long enough to an
nounce that he will vote the Re

have his way in the Chicago

people profess TO be unable to

Legislators to the few golden
Colds, whose tinsenaled Actto
pus arms have gathered in and
crushed the producers of every
industrial enterprise in this land

As was expected. the agents
of the Rothchilds and other
European Shylocks dominated
the platform, and the single
gold standard was adopted
thereby giving notice to the
American people that British
and other foreign gold had a
mortgage both upon American
property and American man
hood sufficient to control this
country at their own debauched
and inhuman will.
For the honor of our ances.
tors who fought ragged, hun-
CRY, barefooted and bleeding,
for seven long years, against
foreign serfdom, it should be
recorded that the representa-
tives of six states of this Ameri
can union-party ridden as it i
had enough of honest man
hood in them to walk out Of .
party which had repudiated i'll
most sacred principles.
A like condition is likely To
occur at the democratic conven
ton at Chicago, which will at
tempt to pass a similar platform
leaving no distinctive feature
between the republican anC
democratic parties.

An industry that has kept number OF boys busy
along the Coney Island Cycle Path for the last
week two has been the gathering OF dogwood
blossoms and selling them to riders OF the wheel
The industry has nourished particularly IN the
woods just north OF Howe's Hotel where number
OF dogwood trees grow. The purchasers OF these
trophies have been both men and women. but
many Of the former. especially those who have
not left their youth behind them, have gone into
the woods on their own account and carried away
armfus OF the blossoming branches Most OF the
trees have been stripped in consequences
For fortnight or more many riders have b. en-
seen coming up the path with punches OF these
flowers attached TO their handle-bars. When they
reach the Park they careful not TO enter IT,
but take the path around the outside. The rule of
the Park is that flowers shall be carried out OF
wood branches, the police could not tell whether
side Of H. The woods at Bergen Beach have also
furnished another source OF supply OF dogwood
flowers, which seem TO be free TO all corners. but
the ubiquitous small boy has been hand

gathering Of these flowers Is about over for the
present season. Along with the dogwood branches
some OF the boys on the path have been Offering
