IMPERIALISM.

Imperialism, which is the chief OBJ
ject of arrangement in the Democrat
ic platform, means, according to
standard photographers: Imperial
state or authority; the system of i'm
perial government.
Does any man who helped to erect
the Democratic plaJform-does any
man who voted for its adOption-be-
| lieve, seriously that there is the dim
NEST shadow of prospect that an
| imperial government will ever be set
up i n the United States? Can any Dem
ocrat of sound mind and diSpOSing
memory cajole himself into the belief
that this issue of Imperialism, which
is advanced to the head of the pro-
cession where free silver proudly
marched four years ago is anything
but a painted scarecrow?
What Is the use, anyway, in the
great Democratic party becoming
alarmed and excited about imperIal-
ism and the liberties of the people
when it is just entering campaign
with the certain assurance, as its
leaders assert, that it will cast out,
overthrow and utterly destroy the
Republican organization, which is
charged with the sinister design Of
converting the republic into mon
archy.
During the civil war there was a
similar scare about militarianism,
but it didn't hurt tile Republicans a
mite. Thirty years is hardly long
enough to enable the country to for
get that party can't get on in the
United States by firing on the flag

ried a widow two months ago. On
the day of his wedding he asked the
girls to have nice supper for their
new mother, saying that he would be
at home about o'clock. The girls
were mad about the wedding and de-
termined to show their displeasure
by preparing meal of mush and milk
for their stepmother. She appeared
so nice about it and treated the girls
with such kindness that they got
ashamed of their trick and began to
explain that they were away from
home late and as muSh and milk was
their favorite dish, they decided to
prepare what the family would enjoy
most for so pleasant an occasion as
receiving their new mother. The
stepmother would not be outdone in
courtesy and decided to push good
thing by ordering mush and milk
next day for supper Then it was
mush and milk twice a day and fried
mush for breakfast till all the chill
dren left home, the neighbors talked
it and the husband threatened di-
vorce is there was not a change of
