CURRENT COMMENT.

The Cincinnati Enquirer Dem. }
says: The Democratic party has been
repeatedly assured that ii never had
such a chance to win as il has now,
If il viii only put forward the right
ticket and platform. There ought to be
no difficulty about that. There are
plenty of good men to put on the tick
ct and an abundance of sound prin-
ciples to construct a set of resolutions
out of. And there is experience with
out limit"
The Baltimore Sun Dem.) says:
THE st. Louis convention will be one
of the most interesting in the history
OF the party. unless the element of I'M
certainty which now prevails should
be removed before the Representatives
of the Democracy assemble on July g.
il remains to be seen whether the ma
jority Of the delegates, who seem to be
animated by a desire to name a win
ming ticket and to adopt a platform
framed along conservative lines, will
control the convention, or whether
their plans will be spoiled by an ag-
gressive minority composed of the ex-
treme elements in the party.
The Washington Post Qnd) says:
our esteemed Southern eontempora-
ries are, we think, taking much too Sc
riously what they can the negro plank
in the Chicago platform. AL
together there is no sort of occasion
for the misgivings so freely expressed
since the PRONUNCIATION Of the declara-
alton in question. IL is merely an APP
peal for the negro vote in close North
ern states-simply that and nothing
more. II seems 10 us that our South
ern friends need not waste their emo
tions and solicitudes upon alarms In
buckram. They will have real sensa-
lions and 10 spare before the leaves

DEATH OF DIR. NIENDEs.

The entire community, without re-
speot to creeds, will feel sincere sorrow
for the death of DIR. Mendez. For more

people greatly beloved. On the occa-

Next Wednesday the Democratic Ma
tional Convention will meet in st.
Louis. Just what it will do is profile
NAUTICAL There have been few con-
ventions so difficult to forecast. The
indications are that Judge Parker of
New York will be the nominee, though
there are rumors of various combina-
tions that may be employed to COM
pass his defeat and secure the nomi-
nation Of some other man. There are
several ''favorite sons" who will be
given complimentary votes on the first
ballot-Gray of Delaware, Wall of
Wisconsin, Pattison of Pennsylvania.
Olney of Massachusetts,, CockreI of
Missouri, German of Maryland, and
others. Judge Parker probably will not
be nominated on the first ballot. But
it is believed he will poll more than
half the votes on the first ballot, and
that the votes of the ''favOrite sons"
will go to him on the second ballot,
and nominate him. That Is the way
some of the most astute politicians fig
ure it out Should the New Yorker fail
of the nomination on the second ballot,
then there would probably ensue sew
eral ballots and dark horse might
carry off the prize. At present, how
ever, Parker seems likely to win on the
second ballot.

MAN AND THE DOG.

At the Worlds Fair in St. Louis
there are certain Filipinos who eat
dog flesh. The fact has been widely
advertised, and large number of visit
ors who go to the fair inquire anx-
iously for the Igorrote village, and
whether or not it is likely that the
queer little brown people may be seen
eating dog. The average visitor would
like to see the Igorrotes catch their
dog, skin and cook him, and then
eat him. The sight would be viewed
with repulsion, of course; but the av-
erage American dearly loves to be
shocked and disguised.
The relation between man and the
dog. by the way, is a peculiar one. The
beasts, and at the same time one of
the most loved. Call a man a puppy
and he will feel insulted; call him a
"sly dog" and he viii feel compliment
ed and slap you on the back affection
ately in acknowledgements of the COM
pliment. Call him a hound. and his
fighting blood is aroused. Vary the ep-
tibet so as to aIlege that he is the
descendant of a dog. and he will try
to kill or MAIN the man who says it.
Yet tell him that he is a very sleuth-
hound at following trail, and he will
be immensely pleased. There are few
epithets that are regarded as more
hateful than cur" and yet the very
man who resents the term will spend
money and endure hardships for the
sake of his cur.
The dog has been called mans most
faithful friend. II may be that he is
a friend and deserves much of the good
that has been said of him. Yet the
fact remains that the dog that cannot
be won away from his master and in
duced to newly bestow his affections
wherever food and the attention come
from is seldom to be met with outside
OF literature The undying devotion of
dogs for their masters is largely fic-
titious. The dogs training and in
stinct for securing food is often mis-
taken for higher order of intelli-
| genee than it really is. 1t is a ques-
ton IL every dogs affection for his
master or mistress is not based on sell
fishness. Dogs certainly waste little
| affection on their kind. Even the
mother-love in dog disappears when
the offspring has reached an age when
/ II can look out for itself.
While man despises the dog. as
shown in the deep resentment felt at
being classed as one. at the same time
he feels a deep affection for the brutes,
as shown I'm the expense he viii bear
for and the care he viii take OF one
] OF them. Nine men out OF ten will
admit that the country is overrun with
worthless dogs and that II would be a
good thing IL they were killed of. Yet
II Is impossible TO get the Legislature
10 pass a law directed against worth
less dogs. The. reason is that II is al
ways "the other fellows dog" that Is
worthless. ones own dog IL invariably
the finest. most intelligent animal In
the world. and can do everything ex-
cept talk. Love me. love my dog" Is
not only an aphorism. but practically
a principle. Men nght and kill each
other for their dogs. lie 20 the tax Of
hcers about them. and yet despiss and
kick them.

Sam Bernard recently told the New

waitress in a theatrical boarding house
who had become rather soured at the
absence of tips from two unfortunate
actors who had been forced to econ
ornize. He said: "One morning when
l went in for breakfast I took a seat at
the same table with the impecunious
ones, and Maggie approached for the
order.
Mr.. Bernard she began, what is
the meaning of the slang word
''bone?"
" The sum of 81 is a bone I ex-
planned, innocently.

Letter to Chas. Seger.
Emporium, Pa.

Dear Sir: The cheapest thing in the
way of sending anything over the world
is a postage stamp; and the cheapest way
to shed water is paint.
Not whitewash; paint. Do you happen
to know-it don't belong to your bust
ness to know about paint, you know-do
you happen to know that most of the
makers of paint stuff it out with lime
and clay and sand and water aud air?
They do stuff it out in the can; but not
on the house. They make more gallons
to sell or to buy; more money to pay for
paint; more money to pay for putting it
on; good deal more money to pay for
putting it on; but no more beauty; more
rust; decay; disappointment; loss.
Devoe is your paint, because it's all
paint, no sham, and full-measure,
Yours truly,
+. w. DEvoE & Co.
P.S. Murry and Coppersmith sell
our paint. 18.
