CanONaS ASSaSSinated.

The assassination of the veteran Span
i-h statesman Senator Canovas Del Gas
tiIio adds another to the already long
list # heartlcss and desperate crimes
committed by the Anarchists.
If he mad been tvrant such as some
men who are now dead were, and such
as some men doubtless are, while all
true men revolt at the idea of assassl-
nation under any circumstances, there
might have been some shadow OF eX-
cuse for his tragic removal, that Is, look
ing at it from the point of view Of an
Anarchist. But it does not appear that
he was such. On the contrary, While
Nonarrhllist and q Conservative, and
While ne loved power, he was man OF
liberal views, and did much to better
Tie condition Of the Spanish people. To
him is due in a great measure the Tree
dom of the slaves within the Spanish
dominons: To him is due the granting
Of universal suffrage, reforms scarcely
consistent with our conception of what
becomes a tvrant. and he, of all Spanish
statesman Of his time, who had served
his country faithfully for nearly half a
century, was worthy Of a better fate.
Tie assassin, 50 the papers state, was
prompted to commit the crime by q
desire t. ayenge the death of his brother
Anarchists who were recently executed
because Of the part they took in the
Barcelona bomb-throwing tragedy, as
result Of winch over twenty people
were ailled ana fifty wounded. Canoyas,
accogIing tothe Anarchists, should have
saved the necks of those demons, and
r-t having done So, was condemned to
die il the hands Of an assassin.

Singing Birds of the North.

1t has been source of interest and
wonder to Arctic explorers TO find such
quantities of singing birds within the
Arctic circle. They are abundant be-
yond belief. But the immense crop of
cranberies crowberries. and cloudber.
ries that ripen in the northern swamps
account for the presence of the birds.

Fill q bottle or common glass with
urine and let if stand twenty-four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition of the kidneys, When

Eloped With the Wrong One.

When man attempts to elopewith the
daughter of a widow he should bear in
mind the average widows ability to look
out for number one and her cleverness
in securing No. .. Mrs Martha Berry,
who lived near Greenup, KY, was 40
and she had pretty daughter of IS.
Johnson Whitley, prosperous farmer
Of 80 and widower, had been paying
attention to Mrs. Berry's daughter for
six months and it was supposed gener-
ally that they would be married soon.
The mother would not give her consent,
but did not object to the young widow
er's calls. He pleaded with the widow
for the hand of her daughter to no pur-
pose, and the young people decided on
an elopement.
All the arrangements were made for
the elopement, but the watchful mother
discovered what was on foot, aud on
ment, she went to her daughters room
shortly after dark and bound the girl
hand and foot. She also tied gag in
his mouth, and took her to her own
room and tied her to the ped. She
then returned to the daughters room,
and when Whitley came to steal away
his love the widow answered the sum-
mons and without speaking a word
joined the young man in the yard. lie
assisted her into the buggy and drove
with her to Grayson. the county seat of
Carter county, where he had arranged
with Judge Morris to perform the cere-
mony. Whitley was surprised at the
silence of his companion, but as she
leaned confidingly on his arm and APP
peare to be sobbing all the time, he
could do nothing more than caress her
now and then and cheer her up by tel
ling her that mother would forgive her.
1t was not until after the ceremony
was performed on the judges front
porch and they had repaired to a hotel
that the bridegroom saw that he had
married the widow. He decided at

December the deficit Of $60, 1000, 900 will
be made up by the increased importa-
lions and prosperity will dawn.

December the deficit of 10000, 900 will
be made up by the increased importa-
lions and prosperity will dawn.
Is that so?
For the sake of cheerful amenity let
the assertion be accepted. What, then,
have the Republicans gained? To be
sure, they have cured the deficit, but at
what expense?
American manufacturers were prom
Used a glorious dawn of prosperity after
the Dingley bill had performed its per-
feet work. Will an increase of impor-
tations SO enormous as to yield an extra
revenue of $60,000,000 be considered a
blessing by the manufacturers of this
country?
w. S. Gilbert's paradox in THE
Pirates of Penzance" is nothing COM
pared with the delightful paradox per-
petrated by Dingley, which promises a
tremendous boom in the way of impor-
tations and a sunburst OF prosperity
to home manufacturers as coincident-
ally beneficial results.
Protection which does not protect is
one horn of the dilema. Protection
which produces a deficit is another
horn. If the Republicans escape the
one they will be pierced on the other.

A PATRIOTIC SENTIMENT.

weston Democrat.
If ex-Secretary of State Chiffon is
short in his accounts TO the State to
the amount as ascertained by the report
of Treasurer Kendall, it is the duty Of
the administration to proceed to collect
it. There is no excuse for such bust
ness methods as Mr.. Chiffon seems to
have employed while in office, and the
Democratic party is as ready to compel
him to make good any deficiency as the
Republicans may be. 1t is matter of
business and the taxpayers of the State
should not be allowed to suffer by rea-
son of a public servant of the people
failing to account or pay over all funds
that may come into his hands as such
official We do not propose to excuse
him on the grounds that he is a Demo-
crat. We want an honest government
or 40 government at all.
