Erect. Of a Late sumner.

At Stroud, in Gloucesshire, a certain
we'll known townsman had one night
been out to a rather prolonged supper
with some of his friends, and on his
way home had the misfortune to fall
into a pond which he had to pass, and
which at that time Of the year contain
ed more mud than water.
Several people who saw him fab in
rushed TO his rescue, and a rope was
procured and thrown to him; but he
refused the aid offered and commenced
swimming to the shore in the most
scientific manner, shouting to those on
the bank, "Neyer mind me; never mind
mel can swim. Save the women anr

Admissions from a Democrat,

/"
The other day, says the Louisville
Commercial, Eli Perkins was intro
duced to Judge Scott. an old dyed-in-
the-wool Kentucky Democrat. The
Judge is well known in the Blue Grass
region and the grand old Kentuckian
has always been looked up to as a High
Priest of "befo' the wah Democracy"
Perkins was introduced by an old
Democrat, and Judge Scott supposed
that Eli was n Democrat, too, and he
became confidential with him at once.
How are we Democrats getting
along, Judge?" asked Eli, in a confden-
tial tone.
The Judge looked at Eli a moment to
see If he really wanted information
about the party, and slowly remarked:
"Well, sir, we are getting on very
well financially, but politically we are
running behind. Yes, I'm afraid we are
running behind"
what causes this?" asked Eli.
"Well, sir" said the Judge, sadly, i
am afraid our party has not been alto
gether right. We have erred in some
things"
"Where have we erred, Judge?
"WelI, sir, | hate to admit it, but our
Grover Cleveland policy hurt us Ken
tuckians. | wouldn't say 1T TO a black
Republican, but we Democrats all adj

he Judge. 1--WE used to get 30 cents for

Wilson bill hurt us. 1t knocked wool
down TO u cents. Free jute, put in to
help the cotton fellows, ruined u

tobacco went down on US. We didn't
complain, but we Democrats did a gooa

lower and lower, and when Grover
went out we were pretty poor-yes'

Stimulation of labels.
Brent Good, president of the Carter Mad
icine Company, yesterday received a teis-
gram from his lawyers in Chicago. Messrs.
Lowden. Estabrook IL Davis, informing him
that a final injunction, with costs. had been
granted against the Chicago Label and Box
Company. This company makes a speciality
Of manufacturing labels, boxes, ETC., for
druggists. The Carter Company has been
following them through the courts for two
years on the complaint that the label conn
papy was making simulations of the labels
Of Carter's Little Liver Pills. They nave
now obtained a final injunction with costs,
and the costs are very large, as the case has
been submitted to q Master in Chancery for
a final accounting.
The Carter Medicine Company has been
the first and only one to prosecute printers
or e~ngravers who have prepared such labels
and wrappers. It marks a new departure
In infringement cases, and their victory 10
one of great Importance to the whole PRO

Democratic Change of Mind.

The Democratic editors affect great
perturbation over the fact that some
Republican Legislators have seen fit to
change their minds on the Porto RicaD

Porto Ricnn AHni.n

speaking Of affairs in Porto Rico n
f.Sayton, an official of the Department
OF Agriculture, who has RECENTLY haan
there, says: Whatever capital is in
vested IN the sugar factories, emanat.
ing at all from island sources. is pure,v
spanish. 1t does not belong to Porto
RICO. The peculiar system maintained
by spain through all of the business
concerns, and so far as their own can't
tai was employed, threw everything
into the hands of the Spaniards, who
were simply in Porto Rico doing busi-
ness. They do not belong TO that Gle.
ment OF Porto Ricans that we feel so
tender about, and would not become
citizens of Porto Rico or this country,
whatever becomes of the constitutional
question. Other factories are owned
ana controlled by English capital, 9th
ers by German, and the entire factory
system by Spanish, English and Ger
man.
They agree with the planters or
manufacturers to take their sugar. re-
hne 1t, and place it on the market, d.
viding the profit on a certain basis, as
Is now being done, and as has been
done between the Hawaiian planters
ana the sugar trust for years. How
VIII they divide the profits? Even?
Each getting 37A per cent? We do
not know. Only the parties interested
Know. This point is clear, however.
and that Is that the Porto Ricans are
not benefited. Simply the sugar COM
binations of this country and the for
eign planters or manufacturers of
Porto Rico.
Isn't 1t a great deal that we should
have freed the Porto Ricans from a
condition as bad as slavery, making
what concession we Of right ought to
make, in justice to the people of this
country, assuring them that after they
had attained the standard that n
ought TO have to enjoy the rights and
privileges of the Constitution of the
country, that then they might be ad-
mitted with equal privileges with the
rest? Do you think this ought to be
before wages are paid in that country
somewhere near in comparison with
wages in this country, or before the
average citizen of that country shall at
least be able to understand the prim-
airy principles Of our government and
institutions? We say no. We should
especially not bring in this great horde
Of cheap laborers who receive less per
day than one person could live on in
this country, and yet they are supposed
to support families on this. We believe
the laborers Of this country will en-
masse resent this proposition.
II am a thorough believer in expan-
sion. l believe that expansion is fraught
with incalculable benefit both to the in
habitants of the island and to the peo-
pie Of this country, when Congress
shall have framed such fair, honest,
just and equitable regulations as are
consistent with the right Of our W
labor and industries"
