ISN'T it about time our people were
waking up and looking to their own
interests in the matter of health?
They might as well sleep on unless
they take active measures to be rid of
the old Bantz Tannery in Brewers
Alley, just removed from the heart of
the CITY, which is a breeder of disease
and a foul smelling, germ producing
quagmire. Why does not our City
Health Officer take the matter in
hand? He has the power.

An article in the Buffalo Times,
describing the advertising >itua-

ton. which is something Ola par.

ofnumtrous other places. From
the article, which is long, we
take this eNtract:-

be seen when il is known that the

it is OF little value, simply be-

Here is Common Sense.

I'VE have no reproaches to cast
upon Mr.. Bryan. He and those who
voted with him are part and parcel
of the American commonwealth. We
are bound to consider them cOnscien-
tiouS men. 1t would be a dismal
outlook for all of us if such vast
portion Of society were intent upon
havoc and ruin to the government,
which would INVOLVE havoc and ruin
TO themselves also. We merely point
out that when they adopted plat
form which threatened to revive and
did revive a dead issue-the substitu-
tion of the silver standard for the
gold standard-they put in the
hands of the republicans the very
weapon which they wanted to carry
the election with, and without
which, in our Judgment, they could
not have carried it. 1t follows from
this experiment, almost necessarily,
that such a blunder will not be COM
mitted again. New York Evening
Post

There is excellent authority for the
statement that of the proposed
British loans not less than $50 ,OOO,-
600 will be floated in this country.
A representative of a foreign banking
house with important connections in
London says that he does not doubt
this fact. He believes one-hfth of the
proposed loan of $50, 100000 will
be subscribed here He said it was
his belief that in future when making
loans all foreign governments would
consider this country on account of
its resources.

The Reorganization OF Democracy

Anent the talk that is rife in the
papers concerning reorganization of
the democratic party, Congressman
Carmack recOuntS the following
pertinent incident:
''Some years ago a meeting was
called in the city of Washington for
the purpose of breaking up and rcor-
ganizing the democratic party Old
Allen-G. Thurman was invited to the
meeting. He heard all that was
said, then looking around the little
room, he said that he did not believe
the democratic party could be de-
stroycd in SO small room"
As to the future policy of the dem
ocratic party Mr.. Carmack says:
The democratic party must stand
for the principles of the republic
against imperialism and militarism,
for democracy against plutocrarv,
for competition against monopoly,
for the rights of the people against
the insolent aggressions of concen-
trated wealth. 1t must resist to the
last the effort to barter the pure
principles of our government for the
plumber of distant provinces. 1t
must be the great conservative force
of the country, the foe like to So
cialism and plutocracy. The party
which stands for these things will
surely grow and strengthen if the re-
public is to endure, and if free gov
ernment is to perish on this CONT
nent there is no reason whv the dem
ocratic party should survive. There is
no reason why the democrats should
despair. The republican party

love OF liberty as there is the lust of

New Key 10 Zinc Fields.

The reasoning of the case is as fol

feeder to the local system of mineral

whether it is the repository or recep-
tacle of ore released from ledge veins,
does not matter.
The absence of cover to the great

have the better of the argument. 1t

insisted that zinc ores are of salt

tended that they are ofsubterranean
origin For there remains, beside
the two horns of the dilemma, the
contingency OF a hydrostatic law to
be disposed of, especially since it is
found, in zinc verticals, that the
heaviest mineral occurs at the great
est depth; and which contingency
has strong support in the fact. that,

The Future OF Democracy

or their scamps. All the clever
rOugues of the time, seeing where the
pickings and stealings lie, have got

be repressed or escaped. The people
