REPUBLICANS GET CREDIT.
Chief Muswump Organ Makes True
Statement Regarding the Coun-
try's Prosperity.

An admission by the Springfield Re-
publican, the chief organ of the mug
wumps Of New England, that ut Is
mostly true that everything good and
great in the legislation of the past
As years Is the work of the re-
publican party" has caused consider
able comment in the newspapers of the
country. What the Republican says,
however, ia true, observes the Cleve-
land Leader.
To be sure, the democrats have not
had much chance to enact laws since
1866. In 1876 they obtained control Of
both branches of congress, but there
was republican president in the
white house to veto the political bills
that were passed. Again, in 1892, the
democrats gained control of both
houses, and they also elected demo-
cratic president at the same time.
Then nothing stood in the way Of their
making laws. Yet the tariff law which
they had promised to enact was only
passed after bitter quarrel between
the house and senate, and 1t was de-
nounced by President Cleveland as q
measure filled with "perfdy and dis
honor" He refused to sign the bill,
permitting it to become law without
his signature. That was the only
measure of consequence enacted by
that congress, and in view of the dis
astrous results of its enforcement, no.
body will say that II was. good and
great.
The incapacity of the democrats to
.legislate for the good of the country
has been demonstrated whenever that
party has had control Of either or both
branches of congress, and that 4
probably the reason why the people
have continued to give the control Of
congress to the republicans, almost
without interruption.

Mara turned her white face to the
woman. Instinctively, she compar-

was twice as old. Her face was al.
most hard in its strength, almost
rigid in its calm. Her hair, strange

bore no resemblance to the dainty
femininity of Mara's golden brown
attire; but her eyes, like Mara's,

RetHrn of Troops Reduces the Army

WASHINGTON. May 30.-It is said
at the war department that the de-
parture of the Hancock and Sherman
from Manila with the Ninth and Nine
tenth regiments of infantry reduces
the army in the Philippines to less than
$4,000 men and that within the next
few months the strength of the effec-
tive military force in the archipelago
will be still further reduced to less
than $4,000 by the withdrawal Of the
Thirteenth, Sixteenth, Twcnty-fourth
and Twenty fifth regiments of infantry
and part of the Third regiment Of cav
airy under orders to return to the
United States.
Special interest attaches to the return
home of the "Fighting Ninth" because
of the fine achievements of that regi-
ment in China and the Philippines, in
both of which countries it saw the hot

were sentenced to seven years each in

for more than three years, but were
not arraigned earlier because OF the
purpose Of the government to use them

Woman w h o m Neighbors
Mobbed Filed Peculiar
Suit for Divorce.

Napoleon, o., July 26.-Mrs. Cynthia
A. Burnside, one of the best known
women in this part of the country, has
filed suit for divorce from Albert H..
Burnside. She alleges that he set a
mob on her and that she was bruised
and ill-treated by the ruffians.
The wife alleges that Burnside had
called her vile names and upon her
making no reply had left the house in
anger She was alone in the place,
a retired farmhouse, when despe-
rate mob of the neighbors surrounded
the house, calling her the names used
by her husband. She claims that they
broke into the house and dragged her
out. She says she was in great dan
ger of being killed before they left.
Her husband instigated the attack, ac-
cording to her tale. She also says
that on one occasion Burnside at
tempted to poison her. He had a
queer vegetable poison, she says, and
was only prevented from carrying out
his deed by accident. In the petition
Burnside is quoted as saying: Il
bought you and paid mighty dear for
the transaction.
