THE coxxoN ENEMY.

Daring the past four years
much has been said about joining
hands to fight the "common
enemy. As the iim,. for he fall
elections draws near the SANE cry
is raised in some quarters again.
The question now arises. who
are the common enemy?
Since Brysns defeat The demo
cratic party has practically diified
back to the republican platform Of
Cleveland aud the gold s'andar !.
Hence the common enemy Of the
people are the two old parties.
How shall the people fight the
common enemy. Shall they
marshall their forces and ,lestro,
both old parties at the same time,
or shall they attack and ront them
one at a time? II the later course
is tn he pursued then good general
ship would suggest attacking the
common enemy a, the weakest
point. The policy pursued by the
populists of fusing with the weaker
purity has proven suicidal and
should lie n warning to the people
FOR all time To come 10 never again
allow office holders to betrny
them into the hands of - foe.
The populist party must suffer
for its mistakes, but the true men
who compose i. are populisis still,
and the most casual observer can
see the hurrying to and fro Of the
scattered forces, gathering in clans
aud planning for an onward move
men'. not upon the republican
party AS an ally of democracy, hui,
upon the common enemy.

As soon as she was gone the clerk told
Mr. Hin who went after the woman and
caught her in a stairway just south Of
the shop. He found the coffee and some
other things she had taken in the store in
a basket under her cape. The woman
first said she had bought them but on
further questioning said she had stolen
them and cried and Mr.. Hill let her go.
The man and woman left the store in
such a hurry that they forgot some Of
their packages. When the man came
back for them Mr.. Hill asked him what
