OLE. Bryan,s cain NO Arms.
Pittsburg Post.

Pittsburg Post.
Mr.. Bryan is right in his
speeches, one of which he made at
Wooster, o., on Tuesday, and 9TH
ers which he proposes to make in
New England. in maintaining that
the power and influence of the
Democratic party depends on it's
faithful and courageous adherence
to principle 1t was what gave
Jefferson and jackson their power
in the party, and later Tilden,
Thurman, Hendricks and Cleve-
land. 1t is what gives Mr.. Bryan
his sway over MILL ns of his coun-
trymen, without the scrap of office
or patronage at his disposal. Z
party without principles, he truth
fully asserts, can have no claim on
public confidence. In a contest
for the mere spoils of Office and
power the Democratic party stands
no chance. When it is contest
for principles, in which the masses
believe and are united, we can al
ways make an earnest, and some
times successful, battle against
great odds. Even if success is de-
MED us, our duty remains. 1t is
no dishonor to be out.voted thiE
year when we may win next. Dis
grace only comes with an abandon
ment of principle and shilly-shal-
ly or evasive declaration + ur faith
in principles and policies which
the people have at heart and be-
lieve in more thoroughly than they
do in the spoils or the prestige of
power.
"Must we abandan," says MIR.
Bryan, "the self-evident truth that
governments derive their just pow
ers from the consent of the govern
ed? Must we accept imperialism
as an accomplished fact and join
in the shout for blood and con-
quest?" Here we get to the bed,
rock of Democratic faith. 1t is the
pressing issue of the hour. In a
practical way it is before Congress
at this time, in legislation proposed
for the Philippines, but more near
affecting the American people, fo1
if imperialism, colonialism, militar.
ism, and the rejection of the Great
Declaration, are to become the set.

Ate the Flesh From a Newly
Born Babe Witch Was
FOuRd Dead.

FOun0 OeaQ.
Mary Rose Oughten, Is, do
mestic employed at Swiger's hotel
at Smithfield, Harrison county,
left her newly born babe lying in
an alley near the hotel, Monday
night. The body was discovered
by a colored man who reported the
matter to the authorities. Before
the officers arrived, however, the
girl removed the infant to the base
ment of the hotel and concealed it.
When she was arrested she told the
officers where they could find the
child. When found, it was dead,
and rats had eaten the flesh from
one arm. DIR. Peck, who made an
examination, said that the child
was alive when born, and the coro-
ner's jury concluded that it met its
death through the mothers unin-
territorial negligence. There were
no marks of violence on the body.

A FAITHFUL FRIEND.

LenoX, Mo-, Sept. 1st.-Mr. ". 81.
Brown, of this place, has reason to be
thankful that he has at least one friend
by whose good advice he has been
spared much pain and trouble. He
says:
Il have had backache for over twelve
months. Sometimes could hardly get
up when I was down, the pain in my
back was SO great.
II tried many things but could not
get anything to help me or give me
relief till a good friend of mine advised
me to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
after I had used two boxes the pain
in my back had all left me and I was
as well as ever was.
Il am very thankful to Dodd's Kid
ney Pills for what they have done for
me, and Will never forget my friend
for having suggested this remedy"

some of them are ludicrous In the extreme
One night IN a sensational drama Mr.. Spar
ling, an English actor of considerable note,
had to be slot at the end of the first act and
to die with much promptness down stage"
Hs was on a platform about twice the size
OF an ordinary billiard table, and, being a
youth of many inches, died so far forward
that the curtain could not be lowered with
out leaving his legs exposed to view. Pull
your legs in" missed the hideously inartistic
stage manager from the wings. But the
lead man was far too conscientious and
realistic to play SO vile trick upon Ora
matte Art-with both its capitals so
laid placid and stiff. CAS- Mr.. Sparling after
ward explained to the stage manager: Dead
men don't pull in their 1egs.'')
The curtain might have been up now had
1t not been for the presence of mind of the
heavy man." who had previously done the
deed, for he walked across the stage in
couple of strides-in spite of having already
made good his final escape from Justice
and, contemplating the body for moment
with arms folded and one leg forward, after
the fashion of the cardboard brigands of old,
exclaimed: ''Ha, ha! he is dead! But now
to remove the body higher up, that suspicion
may not rest on mel" Whereupon he lugged
the murdered mariner up he stage couple
of yards-at the same time looking up to see
that the curtain would clear the corpse's
feet-and once more fed from the scene of
the tragedy.
