The Indianapolis convention has

has not yet declared his choice of presi-
Dental brands. Everyone knows, how
ever, which kind he uses, and his
cabinet have sohdly arrayed themselves
with the boilers.

THE Perry Home Journal speaks its
mind about the boilers and says they
commit fraud when they call them
selves the national democratic party.
These people assumed at Indianapolis
to usurp the name and functions of
great party, as their money lords have
been attempting to usurp or control the
functions of government.

Rirhts of Il Woman in Love.

From the St. Louis Globo-D emocratO
 The first right of a woman in love is to be protected from her friends while she considers the man whom she con- templates loving. The well meant blundering of vitally interested friends has spoiled many a promising love af- fair which might have resulted in marriage so much above the ordinary that it could almost be termed satis- factory. At no time in girls life has she a greater right to work out her own salvation in fear and trembling than during the period known among girls as making up her mind" If she is the right kind of 8 girl, honest and deli cate minded, it is nerve-racking to be talked about, and sacrilege to be talked to. The bloom is on the grape then which a rude touch mars forever. Yet these kind friends never think of the delicate touch-me-not influences at work in the girls soul, or that the in stinct to hide her real interest in the man precludes the possibility of her daring to ask to be let alone. So they, in their over-zeal and ambition, either make the path of love so easy and in evitable that all the zest is taken out of it for both (for lovers never want somebody to go ahead and haste the problem for them; they want to blind stitch it for themselves as they gc along), or else by critical nagging, and balancing the eligibility of one suitor against another these friends so jal and upset the poor girl that she doesn't know which man she wants, and SC turns her back upon all. In point o1 fact, when a man is in love, and gir is trying to return his loVe-When sht is weighing out their adaptability and balancing his love for foot ball against her passion for Browning-du the delicate, tentative period, when thf most affectionate solicitude iron friends is an irritation, there ought t. be law banishing the interested cou' pie to an island peopled with strangers who would not discover the delicacy O the situation until it was too late tC spoil it.

Buttons and Buckles. [From Harper'S Bazar. l

Fancy buckles and buttons form a very important part of the smart gowns this year, and are often intrinsi- cally valuable, while even imitation green and white silk with the front of the waist entirely of lace is trimmed with buttons of rhinestones and imita- ton emeralds, wonderfully true (can it be said, to nature?); while the gowns that have red in them are trimmed with garnets and rhinestones Ribbon bows are apparently held in place by fascinating buckles in which rhine stones play an important part Silver is so cheap that sterling silver buckles, very dainty and artistic in design, can be bought for little and are much used as trimming. The belt buckles that are attached to belts are small, but belt buckles that belong on dresses are of goodly shape and size. A chiffon waist has the folds caught down across the bust by rhinestone buckle curved in shape, and the stones marvelously resemble real diamonds. Many conser- vative women object to this fashion on the ground that they dislike intensely anything that is imitation; but these mock-jewels are taken for just what they are worth, are not intended to de- ceive, and consequently are worn with simple morning gowns when the real jewels would be incongruous. The jet buckles are used with crepe, and light en very decidedly the dull, sombre look that crepe of necessity possesses,

in the usual corset, and it is plain that they are more comfortable. Besides the fibre does not take soil as does cot ton. Though summer corsets come now in black, they seem daintier in white.
 Grenadines are in revival and the rage that exhibited for them several years ago seems likely to be repeated. Formerly they were mostly striped, but this years sorts are plain. The dress shown to-day was sketched in grenadine of a pinkish violet hue and made a very pretty costume that might pass either as a jaunty street dress or as a dressy outing rig. It's jacket opened over a vest of white embroi- dered batiste, and each front was cut in stwo revers. each ornamented by a large chiselled button. Similar buttons came on the turned back batiste cuffs, which were also garnished with en- broidered batiste rutfies, @ narrower one trimming the collar.
 Now that the hot weather has come, the women who ''tooll to painting" last winter don't know what to do. A coat of tan seems the only thing likely to cover up the harm the little touch of rouge" did. trick of the summer girl that shows itself is in carrying a bunch of flowers. It gives a sort of come-into-the-g garden Maud effect that brightens the path or the street they follow, and makes them seem to have just come from the sweet cool fields in stead of from the florists. By the time these same girls get into the fields, where flowers are plentiful they'll drop this trick for the first rarer one that seems effective. FLORETTE.

I TIl, IN TIE OINTMENT.

There is always a fly in the oint- ment, We turn aside for minute from the general joy over the nomination of a good ticket on a good platform to contemplate with sadness the defeat of a Yale crew by a Lightweight crew from Wisconsin, some distance beyond Kalamazoo To be sure the Yale crew was composed of Freshmen and the Wisconsin crew was composed of sev- eral kinds. But a Yale Freshman crew ought to be Q match for any crew of a wild western university, and we fondly supposed it was.
 What was the matter? Can it be that the Yale crew, being composed of Freshmen, hadn't had time to acquire enough of the Yale spirit or is the Wis consin spirit something the Yale spirit hadn't counted on? Or is the Register at fault for not sufficiently whooping up the Yale spirit just before the race?

4 REPUBLICAN W4R CRY,

One of the most effective Republican war-cries during the campaign that has begun will be Patriotism, Protection and Prosperity! These three words well embody the ideas and aims of the Republican party. That party will again show, as it has often done be- fore, that it is full of patriotism. And it will so protect American industries ".s to help bring about a return of that prosperity which has so completely vanished under Democratic blundering and mismanagement
 Patriotism, Protection and Prosper ity! Down with the destructive and the devilish Democracy!

A SOLID PLATFORM,

The Republican platform is a very strong and satisfactory structure. If it had nothing in it but the gold plank it would be strong and would go far toward satisfying many who have look ed with fear and trembling upon the antics of the silver men and the appar- ent weakness of some of the Republican politicians. The gold plank is all right The Republican party is unreservedly for sound money. It caused the enact ment of the law providing for the re- sumption of specie payments in 1879; since then every dollar has been as good as gold. We are unalterably opposed to every measure calculated to debase our currency or impair the credit of our country. We are therefore opposed to the free coinage of silver except by in ternational agreement with the leading commercial nations of the world, which we pledge ourselves to promote, and until such agreement can be obtained the existing gold standard must be currency must be maintained at parity with gold, and we favor all measures designed to maintain inviolably the ob- legations of the United States and all our money, whether coin or paper, at the present standard, the standard of | the most enlightened nations of the earth" There can be no fair criticism against the boldness and the honesty | of this declaration. 1t means gold and says gold. And the fact that there were but 1051A votes against it shows that it is the declaration of the Repub- lican party and not of a small part of | it. It is the most important part of the platform. It shows, what has often been shown, that the Republican party 1 can be relied on to do what is right | and wise without regard to smaller politics.
 | After the gold declaration, the part of the platform which will attract the most attention is that devoted to the tariff. This part is much more reason able and wise than the Democrats wish it was. No extreme ground is taken We demand" says the Republican party, such an equitable tariff on for 1 eign imports which come into competi- ton with American products as will not only furnish adequate revenue for the necessary expenses of the government,
 but will protect American labor from degradation to the wage level of other lands. We are not pledged to any par ticular schedules. The question of rates
 is a practical question, to be governed by the conditions of the time and of production; the ruling and uncompro- missing principle is the protection and development of American labor and in
 dustry. The country demands a right
 settlement and then it wants rest" It
 would be hard to put more truth and
 sense into the same space than are put
 into this. Reciprocity has it's due in
 the platform. Protection for what We produce; free admission for the neces-
 saries of life which we do not produce;
 reciprocal agreements of mutual inter
 ests which gain open markets for us
 in return for our open market to oth-
 CTS" This is sound doctrine and will
 be heartily approved by those who have been enjoying the blessings of free

Switzerland keeps up an effective army of 14O,000 men at a very slight cost of money and time.
