What is the use of making Il better
article than your competitor If you can
not get IL better price FOR it?
Ans.-As there is no difference in the
price the public viii! buy only the bet

smaller Oh Il single safe they will be
much greater III The aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought pro

certain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass Judgment on them
and use only the better one.

al campaign to excite, alarm, and
distress the people.
Wherever Republicans were united
on the war issue the results are very
encouraging. We have lost only
one state that gave its electoral vote
to Mckinley, and we have made
gains in states like Nebraska and
Kansas, carried by Bryan. In Min
nesota local issues and rivalries were
thrown to the front, and more than
usual disaffection prevailed on ac-
count of the alleged treatment of
certain regiments of the National
guard sent to the front. But IN most
of the states the paramount issue of
McKinley's policy was the one that
appealed to voters. Had Mckinley
been candidate for president this
year he would have, on the returns,
received larger electoral vote than
in 1896.
The fact that there is RepublI-
can majority in the house, and that
the complexion of the several legisla-
lures assures Republican majority
IN the senate after the 4th of March,
1899, is most important to the future
of the country. The house has little
to do with treaties, but the senate
may modify or reject, and thus en-
barrass the executive. But in this
election the expansion policy has
been indorsed. A treaty of peace ap-
proved by the president is likely to
have the required majority in the
senate, and the country will not be
halted in It's march toward a higher
destiny y.-Inter-Ocean.

CONGRESS AND THE PREsIDEN1

satisfaction with an administration
usually finds expression in the first
congressional election after the in
auguration of the president on trial.
In 1862 the Democrats made cam
paign against the Lincoln administra-
ton on the conduct of the war. They
reduced the Republican and Union
membership in congress from 135 to
102, and increased the Democratic
membership from 48 to IS. New
York gave Democratic majority on
the state ticket of 10000; Pennsyl-
vania, $500; New Jersey, $4,000;
Ohio, which had given Lincoln a
majority of 10000, gave Demo-
cratic majority in 1862 of 5,557;
Indiana, which had gwen Lincoln
majority of $4,000, gave a Demo
cratic majority in 1862 of 9,543, and
Illinois, which had given Lincoln
nearly 10000 majority in 1860, gave
the Democratic candidate for state
treasurer in 1862 majority of 49,
SAG. Had Lincoln been candidate
for reelection that year he would
have been defeated.
In 1866, after johnson had sue
ceeded to the presidency, the un-
easiness of the people was as to con-
gress. The danger then was from
the executive, and, with their hope
centered in congress, the people
elected 143 Republicans to 40 Demo-
Gratis. Grant swept the country in
1872, but the Republicans lost con-
troll of the house IN the off year of
1874. In 1876, 140 Republicans
were elected to 153 Democrats. In
1873 the Republicans lost the senate
and had only $50 members in the
house to 149 of the Democrats. In
1880 the Re puhlicans practically re-
gained control of the senate and
elected 147 members of the house to
135 Democrats.
In 1882 there was dssension in the
Republican ranks, and the Democrats
elected 196 members of congress,
and the Republicans only lis. In
1884 the Democrats elected the
president and 1872 members of con-
gress to 140 Republicans. In 1886
the Republicans secured control of
the senate and made gains in the
house-the membership standing 10
Democrats to 1872 Republicans.
In 1888 the Republicans elected
the president and regained control of
the house by a majority of only five.
In 1890, the off year, there was a
Democratic landslide, and the house
had 236 Democrats to 80 Republi-
cans. IL the presidential year of 1892
Cleveland was elected president, and
the house had 222 Democrats to l29
Republicans. In the congressional
off year o: 1894 there was Republi-
can landslide. If Cleveland had
been candidate that year he would
have been overwhelmed in defeat.
The Republicans carried nearly every
Northern state by heavy majorities,
and elected PA members of congress
to 104 Democrats. They did not
maintain this phenomenal majority
in the presidential year of 1896, the
Fifty-Fifth or present congress hav-
ing membership of 2O4 Republi-
cans, 1913 Democrats, 27 Populists,
and silver men.
To break down this majority of
fifty-one the Democrats entered up
on the same sort of a campaign in
August last as was waged against
Lincoln in 1862. They represented
that the volunteers in Southern camps
were being starved, that the sick
were dying through neglect, and that
the army in Cuba was being decimat-
ed through incompetence or neg

SPANISH LOVE OF BL0oDSHED.

In the midst of all the distress and
misery | could not help noticing how
bloodthirsty the race is. A mother
and daughter were standing by me
when the last COW was killed. The
butcher very skillfully stood by the
side of the animal, reached to his
spine and plunged a knife into it.,
withdrew it and plunged it in again,
and repeated the operation a third
time, when the poor beast rolled over
dead. i ~instinctively turned away
from the sight, and was Mortified to
note the intense interest the women
were taking in it and how their eyes
glistened with pleasure as they MUIR
INJURED their appreciation of the butch
er's skill. / may, of course, have
Judged them w~rongfully; it may have
been the delight with which they
we're anticipating the coming meal,
but | don't think there could be any
mistake-the expression of their faces
clearly showed how they enjoyed the
spectacle of bloodshed and slaughter.

ing for her paupers, and no better
way can be adopted than the present
method. Abolish the farm al now
proposed by the police jury and you
will see that each member of that au-
gust body viii be appointed a COM
mittee of one in his respective ward
to look after the wants of the pau
pers in his ward. OF course the
member viii not expect more than
three dollars a day and mileage for
his services, because it would be
nothing more than a charitable act

A GALLANT BLACK WARRIOR.

The regular army contains two
regiments of negro cavalry and they
are excellent soldiers. A newspaper
correspondent tells that at Tampa,
Florida, there is to be seer wander
ing about the post in a suit OF pink
pajamas q Titanic negro, six feet tall
and of like proportions. His name
is Americas. Johnson, and he is a pri-
vate in the 10th regular cavalry.

single-handed succeeded in oYercom-
ing a squad of the enemy and captur-
ing a slx-pound rapid fire gun; shot
three Spaniards, knocked four sense
less with the but of his carbine, and
the rest ran away in terror. johnson
was twice wounded, one ball passing
through his left shoulder and another
through his left leg, but neither re-
manned in his body, and no bones
we're broken. He speaks of his
wounds contemptuously as s'pin-
holes" They are healing rapidly
and he viii soon be able to return to
his home in Texas and receive the
honors due the brave. He has al
ready received a great deal, and I
grieve to relate that glory and admit
ration are confusing Johnson's mem
DRY. He is becoming somewhat in
accurate and inconsistent in his state
ments. He sits all day long under
the shade of a tree clad in bis pink
pajamas, like the sultan of Senegam-
bia and relates the story of his
achievements over and over again to
throngs of colored people and stray
Cling whites, who stand with both
their airs and mouths wide open, par
alyzed with awe. Like the editors of
the yellow journals, Mr.. johnson has
discovered that the public taste de-
mands something hot and bloody and
he does his best to crafty that crav-
