Whittier We Are Drifting.

Israel ZangwilI, the English Jewish novel
list, now travelling in the United States, in an
interview few days ago at Chicago said he
did not believe in Republics. He spoke par
ticulary cf the French republic. which he
said was a republic only i'll name, and he was
not favorably impressed with the government
of the United States.
The Army controls France, and the French
government is republican only in name.
The Army is getting very potent in the
United States and the officers are taking mat
tiers in their own hands. A few weeks ago
Col. Robert McGregor of the Ninth Cavalry
held train at Camden Station, Baltimore, on
the main track of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad. for about an hour in order that he
might get something to eat and thus blocked
all business during that time.
On Sunday night last battalion of negro
soldiers. the Tenth COlOred Cavalry, held a
train in the Southern Railway Station ct
Knoxville, Tennessee, i'll order that the oih-
GERS could get something to eat, and thus
blocked business.
1t is no wonder Zangwll is not impressed
with republican form of government when
such things can happen in what has been con-
sidered the model republic.
1t is true we have diverged very much from
the lines laid down by the tounders-Wash-
ington. jefferson, Madison, Monroe and Jack
son-and if we do not soon turn pack in that
direction we shall have IA republic in name
only.
A vote next Tuesday for Richard B. Tippett
is IA vote to call IL halt on Imperialism. He
is opposed to territorial expansion, to large
standing army and large navy, and does not
believe with the Republicans that public
debt is IA national blessing and that high tax
alton is conducive to public happiness.
The United States were prosperous and the
people contented before the advent of the
Republican party to power. For the past
thirty years we have been drifting away from
the Constitution, ignoring the advice and
warnings of the founders OF the republic, and
are getting on very dangerous ground when
we are endeavoring to have and to hold is
lands all around the globe. The possessions
have not actually been seized, and whether
we go on or stop will depend somewhat on
the expression at the polls next Tuesday.
Let every person opposed to territorial ex-
pansion, large standing army, an increased
navy, more debt and high taxation come out
next Tuesday and vote for Richard B. Tip

advertised against hunting, so the huntsmen
will have to stay on the outside.

A precious mother from us has gone,

place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled.

Physicians were in vain;
God thought it best that she should rest
And eased her of her pain
Mournfully, sadly, we laid in the tomb
Her form, though her spirit had fed
To Jesus. her Saviour, who's taken her home
While sad hearts are saying, she's dead.
But Jesus has told US their isn't death
To those who are born of the Lord.
But only transformed and passed on before;
And surely we doubt not his word.
Yes loved one sleep on thou'st free from all pain
Through thy suffering hours did we soothe thee

When God in his mercy sent down from above
An angel that whispered message of love-

when buying gallon of whiskey how many
profits you have paid from distiller to iobber,
from jobber to retail dealer and from retail
dealer to consumer; three profits added to
the cost. In buying from a distilIer you pay
one fair profit, get goods direct from the dis
