the same household and one of them
is monkey, the other is much to be
pitied. y cat and dog life Is perfect

first appeared on the scene the monkey
could make neither head nor tail of il
At first he tried to open the shell, but
every time he put in his paws his fin
gers were sharply bitten. By and by,
however, he found out that when the
tortoise was upside down it was help
less, and from that moment the crea-
ture knew no quiet. AS often as the
monkey could get at it it was prompt
ly placed on its back. Often this hap
pened II times a day. For malicious
cruelty commend us to a monkey.

BRYAN'S IDEA OF A MODEL
REPUBLIC.

l can conceive of a national
destiny surprising the glOr-
les Of the present and the
pasta destiny which meets
the responsibilities of today
and measures UP to the pos
SibiliticS of the future.
Behold Il republic, resting
securely upon the foundation
stones quarried by reVOlu-
tiOnary patriots from the
mountain of eternal truth
Il republic applying in prac-
ticc and prOclaiming to the
world the ScIf-cVident pro-
position, that all men are
created equal, that they are
endowed with inalienable
rights that governments
are instituted among men to
secure these rights, and that
governments derive their
just powers from the con-
sent of the governed.
Behold a republic in which
civil and religious liberty
stimulate all to earnest en-
deaVOr and in which the law
restraints every hand uplifted
for n ncighbOr's injury-a re-
public in which every citizen
is IL sovereign, but in which
no one cares to wear a crown.
Behold Il republic standing
erect while mpires all
around are bowed beneath
the weight of their own arm
aments-a republic whose
flagJ is loved while other
flags are only feared.
Behold a republic increasing
in population, in wealth, in
strength and influence
solving the problems of civil
liZatiOn and fastening the
coming of an universal
brOtherhOOd-a republic
which shakes thrones and
disSolves aristOcracies by its
silent example and gives
light and inspiration to
those who sit in darkness.
Behold a republic gradually
but surely becoming the
supreme moral factor i'm the
worlds progress and the ac-
cepted arbiter of the worlds
disputes-a republic whose
history, like the path of the
just, sis as the shining light
that shineth more and more
until the perfect day."

1t is no pleasure to the Advertiser to
go into the scandals of the late Repub-
lican campaign but in view of very
palpable attempt to turn the blame for

1t would seem that when a theater
is being run as a means of introducing
INSCRIPTIONS women to youths who
have more money than brains and
whom the women are instructed to rob.
the sooner respectable men get rid of
their stock in it and retire from the
directorate the longer their respectable
ity will last. The story lately taken in
expurgated form from the Wasp, re-
garding the overtures in San Francisco
of a Honolulu theatrical agent, ought
to arouse moral sentiment in this city
against dive theaters which will put an
end to them.
