 the humming birds built their nest,
 reared their young and flew away with
 them. The hook was right in front of
 the dining room window where every
 move of the birds could be seen. Mir. 1 Drscoll says that while the young
 birds were in the nest everytime the parent birds left they would first fit to and fro before the window as if calling attention to their departure, so that the baby birds might be looked after. As the humming bird is one of the most timid of all living creatures, this is, indeed, a remarkable case.

to pervert the heart and obscure the i'm
telects, that the number of distillers
(brewers) should be no argument in our
favor; for I never heard that a law
against theft was repealed or delayed
because thieves were numerous 1t
appears to me, my lords, that if so form
liable body are confederated against
the virtue or the lives of their fellow
citizens, it is time TO put an end to the
havoc, and to interpose while yet II
is yet in our power to stop the destruc-
tion.
$50 little my lords, am | affected with
the merit of this wonderful skill which
the distillers (brewers) are said to have
attained, that it is, in my opinion, no
faculty of great use to mankind to pro-
pose palatable poison, nor shall l con-
tribute my interest for the reprieve OF

practice obtained great dexterity in his
trade.

the people are tempted to their own de-
struction, let us at lengthl my lords,
secure them from these fatal draughts,
by bursting the walls that contain them.
Let us crush at once these artists in
slaughter, who have reconciled their
countrymen to sickness and to ruin, and
spread over the pitfalls of debauchery
such bats as cannot be resisted"
Had Lord Chesterfield been in the
Ohio legislature when the unholy Dow

WHAT DIsPLEAsED DEWEY.
(Brooklyn Eagle.)


McKinleyism and Organism are inteli-
gible. Deweyism would be conundrum
in politics. The man literally never
voted in his life. His folks are all bitter
Republicans. He has never dissembled
that he is a gold standard man and an
ardent expansionist. That is all he
knows of politics" His receipt of
monthly pay abroad taught him that
gold is better than silver. 1t is the
money of the world. His magnificent ad-
dition Of the Philippines to our resources
makes the retention, the wise and firm
rule and the industrial and moral de-
velopment Of them point of pride and
of honor to him. But of tariff of bank
ing, of our political history, and of poll
tics, he Is as admirably innocent as a
child. He could become neither Demo-
crat nor Republican, and he would be
neither IL nominated The goods would
be described by neither label. The un-
eXampled consideration shown to him
would be sorrily rewarded IL his name
| were made slogan for half his country
men and target for the other half
Democracy or Republicanism could in
| vest in him only as a speculation. We
| hope that sort of speculative politics
will not be presented.

popular demand for Admiral Dewey s
election to the chief magistracy.
He has no reason to look to either of
the great parties for a nomination. 1t
is as certain as anything political can
be that Mr.. Mckinley will be the Re
publican nominee. He is intrenched be-
hind serried lines of federal officeholders
and, though he may be regarded some
what dubiously by the rank and file of
the Republican party, he enjoys the con-
fidence and support of the trusts and
other great moneyed interests which he
has faithfully served. Admiral Dewey
cannot hope to supplant Mr.. Mckinley
as the Republican candidate.
Nor has he any ground for believ-
ing that the Democrats will take him
up. Mr.. Bryan is thus far the only
gentleman mentioned with etaoicmfw
the Kansas City nomination. Undoubt-
edly he has every reason to believe that
he will once more be chosen to oppose
Major Mckinley. But even If the Demo-
cratic nomination were still open 1t Is
hard to see what claim Admiral Dewey
would have upon it. So far as anyone
knows he is a Republican. Certainly
his sentiments are Republican. He is
an imperialst and a supporter of the
administration policy in the Philippines,
which is earnestly opposed by the
Democracy. To take up Admiral Dewey
would be for the Democratic party to
stultify itself.
The admiral, therefore, seems to have
small chance of hearing call from the
people. He may be willing to serve them,
but it Is quite evident that his admit

ADMIRAL DE EY's CANDIDACY
Chicago Chroncile.)

Six months ago Admiral Dewey's an
nouncement Of his presidential candi-
dacy would have caused something of a
sensa ton. Today 1t arouses but Ian
guild interest. That's because Admiral
Dewey six months ago was the popular
ideal of the hour. Today, though he is
still regarded with respect and admira-
ton, he Is no longer a prominent figure
in the public eye. No doubt he Is as
great a man how as he was when the
nation was shouting itself hoarse in
his honor. but he has ceased to be the
| vogue" Popular sentiment is unsta-
BILE. The people seldom worship long
at the shrine of any one demigod.
There are other reasons, too, why the
admiral's avowal Of his desire to be
president will fail to excite any great
interest-much less enthusiasm. He
does not specify the party to which he
looks for a nomination. He does not de-
clare himself Democrat or Republi.
can. He does not intimate his inten-
| tion to become the head of a third party
He contents himself with the announce
ment that he desires-or that he Is will
| ling-to be president, and let's II go a
that. OF course, that is the ideal atti
| tude to assume. The admiral says, In
effect, IF the people want me for theii
president am at their service. Barkii
Is willin'." But. unfortunately, politics
is not an ideality. 1t is extremely pract
cal business. There IL no indication

BAD INFLUENCE
- IN CITIES.
Rev. c. n. Howard Opens Il
Crusade in This City.
TALKED ABOUT CLARK BILL,
Said Mark Hanna sent Telegram OF Con-
graduation when II Was De-
featsd other Meetings
Arranged.

c. N. Howard, the founder of the
Prohibition Union for Christian Men,
opened crusade in this city Friday
night with a meetin gat the First Bap-
tist church. About 100 people were pres
ent. Rev. c. A. Hill presided over the
gathering. Mr.. Howard spoke for forty
five minutes in his usual enthusiastic
style. He pictured the grandeur of the
American nation from the standpoint of
her resources, her territory and her
great natural advantages. He spoke of
the destiny that awaited her upon one
condition-that she proceed without de-
lay to enthrone the righteous and de-
throne the vicious in the seats of the
governmental power. He said our great
cities are being ruled by gang of cor
ruptionists. The alderman of New
York and Chicago We're the worst of
her citizens in Cincinnati they were
just as bad, and the speaker suggested
that Canton probably had some officials
who were not as good as they might be.
The vicious and corrupt, he said, were
controlling the cities and at the present
rate of growth, the large cities in twen-
ty years will have 100000 of a majority
in the nation and the possibility of re-
demption for the nation will have pass
ed.
Mr.. Howard alluded to the recent con-
test in Ohio over the Clark bill and
showed with what studied shrewdness
the politicians had fooled the temper
ance element and come within just one
vote of passing the bill, but defeated ii
all the same, and now already they
were beginning to come around and
point temperance men to the fact that
they almost passed it, and ask them to
support them for that.
Mr.. Howard said it was defeated be-
cause the brewers of Ohio had contrib
uted $50, 900 to the Republican campaign
fund last year under the promise that
there should be no temperance legisla-
tion this session, and that when the bill
went down Mark Hanna sent a telegram
to his party leaders at Columbus thank
ing them.
The speaker wanted the temperance
and the moral elements to unite against
saloon domination in the politics of the
country.
After the address Rev. Hill spoke of
the matter of organizing a Prohibition
Union of Christian Men in Canton.
Mr.. Howard will speak at the Trinity
Reformed church Saturday evening and
again in Canton on Sunday. An effort
will be made to organize strong union
here before he leaves.

TWO OF A KIDNEY.
Chicago Chronicle.)


Mckinley and Dewey are lightning
change artists.
Last December Mckinley was
nightly impressed with what he pro-
nounced the distress of Puerto Rico and
the plain duty of this humane govern
ment to give the inhabitants of that
island the benefit of free trade with the
United States, just as there is free trade
between Indiana and Illinois.
This year Mr.. Mckinley informs the
members of the Republican party in
congress that he has taken the liberty
of changing his mind. When he talked
Of free trade for Puerto Rico he did not
understand that the beneficaries of a
high protective tariff would intervene
in order that nothing should be done
in congress that would shake popular
faith of Republicans in the blessings of
high protective tariff, such blessings,
for instance, as Mr.. Canrnegie enjoys.
When Admiral Dewey returned to this
country last fall he gratuitously express
sed certain views concerning the presi-
dency which were highly regarded by
Mr.. Mark Hanna. He claimed himself
to be untitled by education and train
ing to the performance Of civic duties,
especially those Of the executive office.
He now says that when he made use of
this expression he did not expect to live
to announce later, like Pegottys lover,
that "Barkis is willin'.".
Both Mckinley and Dewey are as un-
stable as water According to the scrip
lures, therefore, they cannot excel.
Neither will worry about the great
American voter after November next.

But more remarkable than the abso-
lutte indifference of the small majority to
the Constitutional prohibition, to the
pledges Oh lne nlSneSt authorities III Cne
United States and the plain dictates of
duty and sound policy is its Indifference
to the unmistakabe sentiment of the
sovereign American people.
With one heart one mind, one voice,
the people of the United States, as rep
resented by the press, have protested
against the outrage against Porto Rico
the violation of American honor con-
tanned in this tariff bill The protests
have been received with contempt and
they have been told you are ignorant,
you do not understand"
True, they do not understand how the
Republican majority has the effrontery
to pass bill which violates all Amer
lean precedents against the will of a
practically unanimous people.
Now we will see If the house, which
has to face it's constituents within seven
months, dares to reaffirm the obnoxious
tariff, now that it knows the temper of
the American people.
Just as surely as this Is a government
of the people, by the people, for the peo-
pie, the American people will not suffer
the obloquy this bill casts on their honor
and good faith to be perpetuated with
impunity. If the Republican majority
permits 1t, there will be a reckoning
with the Republican party by Republic
ans next November.
