WAS DEMOCRACY INSANE +?
If So, Bryan Wa. n Lunatic, According
to Mr.. Cleveland.

Democracy has returned to sanity"
said Grover Cleveland recently, in an in
terview.
This statement, made with all the SOL
emn ponderosity of which Mr. Cleveland
Is pahle.' would imply that the Demo-
cratic party has been insane and its lead
ers a set of lunatics. la previous inter-
views Mr.. Cleveland contented himself
with merely saying that Democracy had
strayed from the right path after
strange gods when it embraced Bryan
ism, but since the defeat of the Bryan
faction at st. Louis he has been secretly
rejoicing over the apparent downfall OF
his most bitter political enemy, and on
Oct. ., at Buzzard's Bay. he virtually
declared that Mr.. Bryan was a madman.
How do the friends Of Mr.. Bryan in
Indiana. Illinois, Nebraska and other
States relish having their leader called
lunatic! Insanity is lunacy. or mad
ness, and il the Democratic party has
returned to sanity it must first have
been insane, and, by the same reasoning,
il the party was insane because Bryan
was its leader, Mr.. Bryan himself must
have been the chief lunatic.
Candidate Parker is generally admitted
to be nonentity in his party-a tool of
HILL Sheehan and otbers-and what he
when Mr.. Cleveland talks. He is the
oracle of the Eastern Democracy, and
il he says Bryan is insane it is certain
he voices the sentiments OF sane" Dem
ocracy.
How can the Bryanites indorse such a
SANDER on their leader by supporting
Parker? Mr.. Cleveland declined to vote
for Bryan on the ground that the Ne
braSkun was insane. bus lie will vote for
Parker. because he leads the sane
Democracy ticket.
An important point seems TO have been
forgotten hy Mr.. Cleveland. Parker vot-
ed twice for the Nebraska ''lunatic" and
was therefore one of the host Of madmen
who composed insane" Democracy. Does
Mr.. Cleveland improve his position by
now supporting one OF the madmen who
voted for the leader Of insane" Dem
ocracy?
Mr.. Cleveland's thrust at Bryan was
uncalled for. and will no doubt, be re-
scnted at the polls. for the friends of Mr..
Bryan do not think he should be put
in the straitjacket class.

Contrasting coronations.

In strong contrast to the ceremony
of King Peters coronation at Belgrade
recently was the simple amounting of
the Inflated King Alexander when he
ascended the throne. The latter cere-
mony took place in the half-ruined old
church, built by King Stephen of Ser
via, who himself was crowned there
in the thirteenth century and declared
that in future all Servian kings should
he accursed who dared to be crowned
elsewhere. The curse can be seen to
this day inscribed over the church,

WHAT THE KING CANNOT DO.
Royal Prerosative in England Has
Its Limitations.

lSS LiTlltdtlOHS.
1t is a prevalent and popular notion
that the power possessed by the mon.
arch is absolute and almost without
Limitation, says the Hour Glass. This
is a fallacy, as the following facts
will attest. The privileges and pow
ers relegated to royalty are manifold
and peculiar, but there are certain
things that king may not do.
While 1t is quite within the prov
ince of the royal prerogaHve to dis
pose of the entire army or navy and
also to declare war without consulting
anybody, yet our king could not util-
ize penny of the public funds with
out permission from parliament. How
ever excellent and beneficent his mo-
tive may be for so doing. the king is
debarred from communicating with
any of his loyal subjects and the same
limitation prohibits him from accept
ing gifts from any of his people en-
cept in cases where the offerings are
presented through the medium Of an
officer of the state or an intimate
friend of his majesty. After an in
dividual has been elected by his con-
stituents to take his seat in the Brit
ish senate at Westminster 1t is not in
the power of the king himself to pre-
vent the member from occupying his
place in that august assembly.
OF his own royal prerogative King
Edward possesses full power to par
don a murderer even after he has
been found guilty and sentenced to
death by the representatives of the
law. Yet, by curious statute of one
of the Georges, the king is prevented
from exhibiting mercy or grace to a
willful sabbath-breaker. To render ev-
cry new law absolute and irrevocable
the royal autograph must be invaria-
bly, attached thereto, nor is his ma
jesty ever permitted to perform his
duty by proxy. Even the salaries of
the kings servants are fixed by state
and he cannot raise the salary of his
own butler except by permission or
out of his own private purse. That
the king can do no wrong is obviously
the view taken by his counselors, for
by the laws that hedge the throne no
person can take action against his
majesty and he cannot he arrested by
the emissaries of the Jaw on any pre-
text whatever.

HYoMEPS SUCCESS IN BARRE.
Cured Many Serious Cases Of catarrh.
Rickert & Wells VIII Refund
Money If It Fails.

No other medicine or treatment for ca
tarrh has ever achieved such quick and
remarkable success in Barre as Hyomei.
The fact that Rickert & Wells when they
first introduced Hy0mei sold 1t under
positive guarantee to refund the money in
case It did not cure contributed largely to
from a firm like Rickerf q Wells gave
people confidence at the start
Those who obtained a Hyomei outfit
found that the treatment did all that was
claimed for it. that the first few breaths
of Hyomei cleared tie air passages and
gave an celebrating and invigorating eff
feet Its continued use freed the system
from all catarrhal germs, soothed and
healed the mucous membrane and made
complete and lasting cure.
Compared with the dangerous stomach
drugging that had been used heretofore in
the treatment Of eatarrh, the balsamic air
Of Hy0mei created a most favorable i'm
preston. And the medicine itself did
even more than was claimed for it, In
fact. to make a success, 1t was necessary
that Hyomei should cure nearly every case
In which 1t was used, for every outfit was
sold on a guarantee to refund the money
In case 1t failed.
If it had not possessed unusual merit,
an offer like this would have resulted In
an enormous loss. But curing, as 1t did,
Hyomei soon gained an enviable reputa-
tIon and made many friends who recon-
mend 1t far and near. Its success here in
Barre has been remarkable, and Rickert
