Only three more .years of Democratic clover.

Wm-.x wheat and clothes are cheap times are awfully hard.

Tut: Democratic majority in Congress is large but apparently useless.

Dkmoiisatk' protection is bounded InState lines. Republican protection is nations,!.

l.iKK many other Democratic states.mcn. Congressman Breckinridge is having his full share of troubles these davs.

Thk Prohibitionists at Indianapolis declared*n favor of taking1 the tariff out of polities, How would it do to take the liquor question out of politics'.'

What a mor.key and parrot time the Democrats arc haying in the House and Senate. It's worth ten years to a man's life to be a Republican member and laugh at lioundering and snarling Democracy.

Till-: Republican camp-fires arc burning brightly in Indiana, and the reasons constantly increase for believing that the day of the State's deliverance from (Ireeu sinithism cannot be much longer delayed.

There is no party in the United States but favors the full use of silver as money. Even the l'opulists have advanced far euough to say that they favor gold, silver and paper,—just where the Republicans have always stood.

Conohki-sman Gkobvksok made an excellent point when he said there was more fraud in the New York custom house every year than in the pension rolls and there were more illicit stills for moonshine whisky than fraudulent pensioners.

It turns out that the Blarney Stone in the Irish Village at the World's Fair was only a Chicago paving stone, and those who kissed it are kicking themselves for being deceived. Well, there is just as much virtue in a Chicago paving stone as there is in the good ould stone in Ireland.

Tjh: condition among the people of the United States to-day is just what it was in I»57. when James Buchanan Raid, in his message to Congress, that lie found "our manufactures suspended. our public works retarded, our private enterprises of different kinds abandoned, and thousands of useful laborers thrown out of employment (iml reduced to want." That was the result of a low tariff, also.

Tin. McKinley law is denounced in the (. hicago platform as the "culminating atrocity of class legislation." The taxation of incomes, as is now proposed, would be class legislation of the most deciiled and most offensive character. It would put into one class the man earning more than $4,000 a year and in another class the man earning less than $4,000, and then it would tax one. while refraining from taxing the other. If this is not class legislation, pray what is it?

A Xkw York lady writes a letter to the I'rcxx. of that city, in which she declares that "if poor men would be Maltliusians, instead of marrying and begetting swarms of children that they have not the means to support, it would aid in raising the standard of intelligence and respectability. If girls would regard marriage asa dreadful responsibility, instead of looking upon it as a balloon to take them up to seventh heaven, some kind of mean might be struck between debasing poverty and immense wealth."

The price of wheat is down to bedrock. It is down to cost and freight that is, it actually costs the farmer as much as he gets for it, and leaves him no margin of profit. It does not cost so much to raise it in India. Russia and Argentine. Hence our farmers will be wise to devote apart of their acreage to other products. Every farmer should •"••. raise a diversity of crops, so as to make something, instead of risking all on one crop—wheat—which the world has been over-producing for years. Our funnel's cannot live on wind and rice as tliey do in India and elsewhere.

THE OLD JLL MYSTERY

It pleased her also to think that as Mr. Gorringe was going to l'resburn, Tom would not be wanted at the mill, and would to able to go with her for her walk: mid in anticipation of this she walked quickly and happily to his cottage.

Kut Tom was not at home, and old Mr. Rovlance did not know where he had gone. "I hope he has not gone far. 1 don't like his being out much just tuny. I wanted to see him about that."

The old man laughed—a confident, easy, proud laugh. "You may trust the lad to give a good account of himself, I'll warrant thee, lass. 'Tisn't on his account you've any call to fear, so much as for them as touches him. Ask Jack Oilworth, eh, ask Jack Oil worth," and the old man chuckled. "Aye, that may be. where it's one to one or two to one. and the fighting's fair and square and in daylight but It's another thing when cowards slink about in the dark, and four or five set on one," answered Mary. "But 'twere in the dark last time, weren't It nnd there were four or five to one. weren't there, and Tom slogged 'em, didn't he—aye, and would do it again. Have no fear for him, lass." "I shall go and see if I can meet him." she said. "Where's Savannah?" asked the invalid, as she was going. "I don't know. Hasn't she been here?" "Not these two days." said the old man. rather dismally. "Tell her I miss her bonny face."

When she left the cottage she did not know which way to go. Tom had told her that he wanted first to go to his father, and then that he might have to go to the mill. Hut lie had not attempted to stay with his father, while, as Reuben Gorringe had left the town by train, thero could be no necessity to go to the mill. Where was he, then? lie must have had some other reason for not staying with her, and she asked herself what it could be.

She walked slowly in the direction of the mill, but saw nothing of Tom, and, though she lingered about, chatting and keeping her eyes about her all the time, she saw nothing of him. Then she went out into the outskirts of the village when the dusk had grown into darkness, and traversed some of the paths and byways that ran round about the mill.

Hut she saw nothing of her lover and when twilight faded into dark her nervousness deepened into serious alarm on his account. She resolved to go back to his cottage, and if he had not returned to cause some inquiries to made.

When she formed this decision she was walking in a little frequented footpath. It was a warm night, but dark, the air a little heavy, tltough very calm and still. The girl's thoughts were all of Tom, and she was adding largely to her fears by imagining many causes of harm.

Suddenly she stopped. The sound of men's voices fell on her ears, voices deep, gruff and angry, speaking words which riveted all her attention instantly. I-'or she heard her lover's name uttered threateningly and coupled with violent eurses.

Whoever the men might be, she had no wish to meet them, and she turned back till she could find a spot where she could hide and let them pass. She knew the path well: and remembered that a few yards back there was an old shed, into which she coukl hide. Sho ran back therefore, quickly and lightly. and hid herself to let the men go by. She heard them coming on, talking angrily. More than once they seemed to stop in the path and stand together, speaking in lower tones. She could only hear a word now and then, and generally that was an oath. Next she recognized one or two of the voices to be those of some of the more desperate and reckles^ of the strikers.

When they came to the gap in the hedge by the shed, through which Mary herself had climbed to get out of their way, they stood together in a group: and the girl could just make out the dim outline of the five or six figures standing and gesticulating and talking earnestly together.

Then without giving Mary time to guess what was intended, two of them got through the gap in the hedge and walked up close to the shed. One of them turned to the rest and said, in a voice of irritation: "Yes, yes of course it's here that he's coming where else could he come? Aren't the things all hidden here? Come in and let us wait: we don't want to be seen, do we?"

And the girl had only time to shrink back in a corner of the place before the men entered the shed.

CHAPTEIt IX.

MA11Y ASUWOHTH'S PERIL.

Maty Ashworth was a girl with plenty of courage, but she was nervous and frightened enough as she shrank back in her corner, whilst the men clustered in the opening of the shed, talking together in low tones.

At first she was too alarmed even to attempt to listen to what was strid. She tried to think what would be the best course for her to take—whether to make known her presence at once and trust to the men letting her go without trouble, or simply to rely upon the chance of their not noticing lier, and so to wait until they had gone.

It was a difficult position. The chances of their letting her go without trouble, supposing she declared her presence, were very smal 1. On the other hand, the shed was too dark for her to be discovered, and if she kept quiet an opportunity mi&ht offer, for her to

My greatest nflliotlou was sleeplessness It was almost impossible at any Time to obtain rest and sleep. Having seen Pi\ Miles' remedies advertised I begnn ueing Nervine. After taking a small quantity the benefit received was so great that I was positively alarmed, thinking tho remedy contained opiates which would finally be in.lm ioiis tome but on being assured by the druggist that It was perfectly harmless, I continued it together with the Heart t'ure. Today I can conscientiously say that Dr. Miles' storative Nervine and Isew Heart Cure did more for me than anything 1 had ever taken. I had been treated by eminent physicians in Isew York and San l-rancisro without- benefit.

She crept into a corner of the shed close to her was a heap of hay, and she resolved to (ret behind this, so that if by chance a liprht was to be brought into the place she would be less likely to be seen.

She waited anxiously, watching keenly every motion of the group of men, and when she found they all joined in talking- or laughing, their attention being thus absorbed, she moved an inch or two at a time. Thus tho noise they made prevented them hearing her movements. In this way little by little she managed to crawl behind the heap of fodder and crouch down.

The End Has Come—The Curtain Is Down

On the last act of the last scene in the eventful merchandising career of the Great Wholesale Dry Goods House,

The James H. Walker Co.

The superb $650,000 stock is all sold—sold under the auctioneer's merciless hammer. And such a sale—a sale that attracted the attention of the entire dry goods trade of the Nation. The leading merchants of all the great cities had corps of buyers attending it. 'Tis quite true that many goods brought big prices, but none of them found their way to

They could not because of the measures we used to prevent bad buying, namely: We spent several day Walker warehouse prior to the sale, examining and scrutinizing each and every piece—every lot in the whole marking down low bargain prices on catalogues furnished us for that purpose. Then we paid close attention to and never allowed one lot to be knocked down to any one else if at or below our guiding prices, but when they we promptly let them go to any one who chose to pay more for them—in short it was a cool, premeditated Capture the Bargains from the Great Walker Sale for our customers.

As a result we will commence to-morrow a Grand Sale. We say "Sale" but the word hardly expresses It will be practically a reckless distribution of Walker's Silks, Walker's Dress Goods, Walker's Linens, Notions, Walker's Domestics,
