FAILURES INCREASING.

r. G. Dunn & Co. report that fall
ures for the last week were 312 against
$50 the week before This does not look
like the prosperity which has been
promised us. And here are some items
which show that some of these failures
have been immense ones:
CINCINNATI. Dec. 13.-One Of the most
surprising assignments is that of Henry
Probasco made today. Mr. Probasco has
been retired from business for more than
30 years. ana has been living in a palatiaI
home in the suburbs of Cincinnati
he has assigned to Seth c. Foster The
assets are put down at s20O,OOO and the liza
bilities at 100000. No reason is given for
the assignment.
Mr.. Probasco in 1871 gave to the CITY Of
Cincinnati the beautiful bronze fountain
which Is located on Fifth street between
VINE and Walnut and which has been adj
mlred by thousands of visitors
he mas been popularity known as y man
enllrely beyond the vicissitudes of hard
times OF business depression and hence
the surprise CAUSED by the assignment
He is n years old
here Is another item of the same kind:
ASHLAND. KY, Nov. pa general deed

ocean; and therefore America would not
have been discovered. There would con-
sequently be no United States today, and
Bob himself-if his ancestors had not
been devoured in some cannibalistic
feast, would be ragged, dirty, ignorant
barbarian; dwelling in a mud shelter
in some corner of England, with an in
tellect about one degree above the wild
hogs he hunted and devoured.
And now he slaps in the face the
only organization-Christia
made him civilized man. and placed
him in the midst Of civilized society
And why attack the church because it
was made up of human beings, who
shared in the superstitions and errors
Of their environment? Did he expect
them to be angles? Does correct theo-
logical views necessitate all knowledge?
Fancy Bob attacking George Washing
ton and saying:
why, ladies and gentlemen, this old
humbug never saw a telegraph line, or
q oAiiOe'o IL olAA, VI q CCiCplloHC, VI =
street car. He wore a wig, although he
had plenty of hair of his own; and then
busted it with flour enough to make a
breakfast off. He wasn't quite sure that
witchcraft was not true; and his false
teeth were SO poorly made that they
altered the whole expression of his
face. AND HE OWNED SLAVES"
Think how Bob would roll out his
golden periods about slavery and the
horrors Of 1.-The middle passage" and
soar off on the pinions of oratory into
the very empyrean OF denunciation Of the
man who would buy and sell human
flesh.
The question is not as to the depths
OF barbarism and cruelty and ignorance
with the whole human family, but what
has it done to lift the world out of that
abyss? 1t Is today, in all it's branches,
an engine for good; A GREAT ORGA-
NIzED BENEVOLENCE, covering the
world with temples of worship of the
living God; hospitals for the afflicted,
and schools and universities for the ig-
norant.
1t preserved the arts of agriculture,
the culture of the vine and the apple
and the wheat plant, in the midst Of
savasery; it fed the paupers at ten thou
sand gates when there was no poor law
in existence; and it furnished certers
OF scholarship when all around it was q
mental darkness as profound as that
which now envelops Central Africa
Bob ought to be in better business
than making such indiscrimnate and
shallow assaults upon that out Of which
has come the grand doctrine OF "tha
fatherhood of God and the brotherhood
or man." the very foundation of civil
lization and constitutional government
And talk about woman.
In the reverence for the mother of
Christ all womankind was honored and
lifted up
Look at the Indian squaw, premature
ly wrinkled and bowed toiling like a
beast of burden, under crushing loads;
and compare her with the glorious
beauty of the women in our street cars,
seated comfortably while the men cling
like monkeys to the straps; and you can
see what the elevation Of the Virgin
Mary to semi-divine honors has done for
Womankind
Dry up, Bob. You are an abortion.
You should be plugged with a hunk CT
watermelon I'D.

Now. there are thousands of Demo-

but what assurance have we that they

May not Tammany rule the roost?

Isn't that encouraging for Bryan?
There can be no Democratic victory
without New York state; and New
York state Is bitterly hostile to free
silver, SO that the Democratic party
will be compelled to give UP Bryan; a
Bryanite be compelled to give up free
silver. That's the whole case in a
