W EDNESDAY, AUGUST 20, 1894.

THE Democrats of the Ninth District have swallowed the Populist candidate for Congress and will make no nomination of their own.

THE veto message written to Representative Catching* was a shot in the air. It hits nothingaud the recoil was the only danger in the discharge.

PRESIDENT CI.EVKI.AXD in his lette to Congressman Catoliings boldly as. sorts that the tariff bill which he permitted to become a law is a bill favoring trusts and combinations.

Wiii.i. may President Cleveland ask how the Democracy this fall can tall to the farmers from the stump after making wool free while taxing woolen manufacturers. How can they confront the people with taxed sugar, and with taxed coal and iron of corporations and capitalists after destroying the flocks of the farmers by placing wool on the free list'.'

GHOVEP. could have vetoed the Oor-man-l!riee tariff bill, but did not Sending the bill back without his sig nature after the expiration of ten days is just as affectual a way of approving a bill as any other. If one stands by and sees a murder committed which he ooula present by writing his tsame on a piece of paper, he is morally as guilty as the one who fires the fatal shot.

THE preachers over in the Ashland Mistrict in Kentucky are getting a little mived on the Congressional race.

Some of them seem to think that when a man repents of appropriating other men's money and suffering himself to be seduced by an artless school girl lie ought not only be forgiven, but ought to be rewarded by an election to Congress, for his repentance. Literally there seems to be more rejoicing over the one sinner that was caught than the ninety and nine that went not astrav.

THE free breakfast table, the erstwhile Democratic Shibboleth, which used to give snterance into the Demo cratic sanctuary, is now erased from the ritual. The command of (Srover now is. in the sweat oT thy face shalt thou eat taxed sugar and taxed rice all the days of thy life and free wool shall be pulled over your eyes to hide the sorrowful spectacle of che Democ racy gulping down a breakfast consisting of equal parts of sugar and rice and tariff taxation. Many will make wry faces when swallowing the villainous compound: but since it is now Democratic dish, it will become as a diet of crow, upon which the partyleaders have been feasting for some months.

THE A r/us-Xcirt, is not honest enough to admit that when sugar was already on the free list placed there by the McKinley law, that every Democrat in the Senate but one—••Hill—voted to put it on the dutiable list, and every Republican voted against it. The attempt to make the

Republican party responsible for the (iorinan bill with its dutiable sugar if babyish and scarcely merits considers tiu.'i. So far as the popgun bill is con cerned, it was referred to the Finance Committee and that committee re ported the bill witli an amendment placing all sugars on the dutiable list at a Mat ad valorem of to per cent. The bill when it was introduced was intended for pure buncombe and in that sense it is now being used by amiable and unsophisticated cuckoos like the A njusScws.

A itrxuKKD .ion.

Mr. Cleveland, in his letter to Rep re.seillative Catchings confesses that the job is bungled. Hut nobody is sur prised, for when did the Democratic party ever attempt to do anything itdid not bungle. Every attempt it has ever made to make a tariff law has proved to be a botched job. Hut the 1'resent attempt to formulate a reve uiie law is so badly botched that it wholly unsatisfactory to everv interest in the country. Hut Wrover says to the public, in his letter to Mr. Catchings just mailed, just wait. It is true, all ou efforts to legislate have resulted in law which embodies party perfidy and dishonor, but some day we ivill succeed in doing something for the good of the country. .lust give us time, and we will pull the wagon out of the mud Hope springs eternal in nay loyal breast, that if not flow, our country trill l,c bless'd. We have failed, [con fess, to do anything for the good of the country, but just give us another chance to reform the tariff, if you please, and if we don't succeed, why then, we will just keep on trying as long as the people will let us. AVe wan raw material, says the President. Hut if the tariff bill which he refused sign does not satiate his appetite for raw material, we should like to know how raw the material must be to be palatable to him. We should think the

Hrice-Oorman bill would constitute supply of raw material that would sup ply the Democratic party for the rest of its life. The whole country, think, will agree with Mr. Cleveland that the job has been badly botched— sadly bungled.

CHAPTER XII.

Yates had stubbornly refused to give up his search for rest and quiet, in spite of the discomfort of living in a leaky and battered tent. He expressed regret that he had not originally camped In the middle of Broadway, as being a quieter and less exciting spot than tKS place he had chosen, but, having made the choice, he was going to see the last dog hung, he said. Konraark had become less and less of a comrade. He was s^ent and almost as gloomy as Hiram Bartlett himself. When Yates tried to cheer him up ky showing him how much worse another man's position might be, Renmark generally ended the talk by taking to tlio woods. "Just reflect on my position," Yates would say. "Here 1 am dead in love with two lovely girls, both of whom are merely waiting for the word. To one of them I have nearly committed myself, which fact to a man of my temperament inclines me somewhat to the other, llere I am anxious to confide in you, and yet 1 feel that 1 risk p. fight every time I talk about the complication. You have no sympathy for me,

Renny, when I need sympathy, and I am bubbling over with sympathy for you and you won't have It. Now, what would you do if you were in my fix? If you would take five minutes and show me clearly which of the two girls really ought to marry. It would help me ever so much, for then I would bo sure to settle on the other one. It is the indecision that is slowly but surely sapping my vitality."

Hy this time Renmark would have pulled his soft felt hat over his eyes, and. muttering words that would have echoed strangely in the silent halls of the University building, would plunge into the forest. Yates generally looked after his retreating figure without anger, but with mild wonder. "Well, of all cantankerous cranks he is the worst," he would say, with a igh. "It is sad to see the temple of friendship tumble down about one's ears in this way." At their last talk of this kind Yates resolved not to discuss the problem again with the professo unless a crisis came. The crisis came in the form of Stoliker, who dropped in on Yates as the latter lay in the hammock smoking and enjoying thrilling romance belonging to the series then in vogue among brainless people, entitled "Beadle's Dime Novels." The camp was strewn with these engrossing paper-covered works, and

Yates had read many of them, hoping to comr across a case similar to his own, 111 to the time of Stoliker's visit he had i. it succeeded. 'Hello, Stolikerl how's things? Got the cuffs in your pocket? Want to have another tour across country with me?'

No. But I came to warn you There will be a warrant out to-morrow or next day, and if I were you 1 would get over to the other side but you need never say I told you to. Of course if they give the warrant to me I shall have to arrest you and although noth ing may be done to you, still the coun try is in a state of excitement, and you will at least be put to some inconvenience."

Stoliker,"' cried Yates, springing out of the hammock, "you are a white man! You're a good fellow, Stoliker. and I'm ever so much obliged. If you ever come to New York, you call on me at the Argus office—any body will show you where it is—and I'll give you the liveliest time you ever had in your life It won't cost you a cent, either." "That's all right," said the constable

Now, if I were you I would light out to-morrow at the latest." "I will," said Yates.

Stoliker disappeared quietly among the trees, and Yates, after a moment'] thought, began energetically to pack up his belongings. It was dark before he had finished and Renmark returned

Stilly," cried the reporter, cheerily "there's a warrant out for my arrest. I shall have to go to-morrow at the latest."

What! to jail?" cried his horrified friend, his conscience now troubling him. as the parting came, for his lack of kindness to an old comrade.

Not if the court knows herself. But to Buffalo, which is pretty much the tame thing. Still, thank goodness, I don't need to stay there long. I'll be in New York before I'm many day older. I yearn to plunge into the arena once more. The still calm peaceful ness of this whole vacation has made me long for excitemen* again, arid I'm glad the warrant has pushed me into the turmoil."

Well, Richard,

"ra sorry you havi

to go under such conditions. I'm afraid I have not been as companionable comrade as you should have hail." "Oh, you're all right. Renny. The trouble with you is that you have drawn a little circle around Toronto university and said to yourself: 'This is the world.' It isn't, you know. There is something outside of all that." "Every man, doubtless, lias his littlo circle. Yours Is around the Argus office." "Yes, but there are special wires from that little circle to all tin- rest of the world, and soon there will be an Atlantic cable." "I do not hold that my circle is large as yours still, there is something outside of New York even." "You bet your life there is and, now that you are in a more sympathetic frame of mind, it is that I want to talk with you about. Those two girls are outside tny little circle, and I want to bring one of them within it. Now, Ren mark, which of those girls would you choose if you were me?"

The professor drew in his breath shortly, and was silent for a moment. At last he said, speaking very slowly: "I am afraid, Mr. Yates, that you do not quite appreciate my point of view. As you may think I have acted in an unfriendly manner. I will try for the first and final time to explain it. I hold that any man who marries a good woman gets more than he deserves, no matter how worthy he may bo. I have a profound respect for all women, and I think that your light chatter about choosing between two is an insult to both of them. 1 think either of them Is Infinitely too good for you—or for me either." "Oh, you do, do yon? Perhaps you think that you would make a much hotter husband than I. If that is the case, allow mo to say you are entirely wrong. If your wife wus sensitive, you would kill her with your gloomy

tits. 1 wouldn't' go olt in the woods and sulk, anyhow." "If you are referring to me, 1 will further inform you that I had either to go off iu the woods or knock you down. 1 chose the lesser of two evils." "Think you could do it, I suppose? Renny. you're conceited. You're not the first man who has made such a mistake and found ho was barking up the wrong tree when it was too lute for anything but bandages and arnica."

I have tried to show you how 1 feel regarding this matter. I might have known 1 should not succeed. We will end the discussion, if you please."

Oh, no. The discussion is just beginning. Now, Renny, I'll tell you what you need. You need a good sensible wife worse than any man I know. It is not yet too late to savo you, but it soon will be. You will before long grow a crust on you like a snail..or a lobster, or any other ooldblooded animal that gets a shell on itself. Then nothing can bo done for ou. Now let me save you, Renny, before it is too late. Here is my proposition: You choose one of those girls and marry her. I'll take the other, 'm not as unselfish as I may seem In this, for your choice will savo me the worry of making up my own mind. According to your talk, either of the girls is too good for you, and for once I entirely agree with you. But let that pass. Now, who is it to be?"

Good God, man, do think I am going to bargain with you about my future wife?" "That's right, Renny. 1 like to hear you swear. It shows you are not yet the prig you would have folks believe. There's still hope for you, professor. Now, I'll go further with you. Although I cannot make up my mind

won.n

LATEST."

just what to do myself, I can tell instantly which is the (firl for you, and thus wo solve both problems at one stroke. You need a wife who will take you in hand. You need oue who will not put up with your tantrums, who will be cheerful and who will make a man of you. Kitty Bartlett is the yiri. She will tyrannize over you just as her mother does over the old man. She will keep house to the queen's taste and delight iu getting}*ou jrood things to eat. Why, everything is as plain as a pike-staff. That shows the benefit of talking over a thing. You marry Kitty, and I'll marry Margaret. Come, let's shake hands over it." Yates held up his right hand ready to slap it down on tho open palm of the professor, but there was no response. Yates' hand came down to his side again, hut he had not yet lost the enthusiasm of his proposal. The more he thought of it the more fitting it seemed. "Margaret is such a sensible, quiet, level-headed girl that, if I am as flippant as you say, she will be just the wife for me. There are depths in my character, Renmark, that you have not suspected." "Oh, you're deep." "I admit it. Well, a good, soberminded woman would develop the best that is in me. Now, what do you sav, Renny?" "I say nothing. I am going into the woods again, dark as it is." "Ah, well," said Yates, wiiU a sigh, "there's no doing anything with you or for you. I've tried my best that is one consolation. Don't go away. I'll let fate decide. Here goes for a tosstip."

And Yates drew a silver half-dollar from his pocket. "Ileads for Margaret!" he cried. Renmark clinched his fist, took a step forward, then checked himself, remembering that this was his last night with the man who had at least once been his friend.

Yates merrily spun the coin in tho air, caught it one hand, and slapped tho other over it. "Now for the turning-point in tho lives of two innocent beings." Ho raised the covering hand and peered at the coin in tho gathering gloom. "Heads it is. Margaret Howard becomes Mrs. Richard Yates. Congratulate me, professor."

Renmark stood motionless as a statue, an object lesson in self-control. Yates set his hat more jauntily on his head, and slipped the epoch-making coin into his trousers pocket. "Good-by, old man," he said. "I'll see you later and tell you all the particulars."

Not waiting for the answer, which he probably knew there would havo been little use in delaying for, Yates walked to the fence and sprang over it with one hand on tho top rail. Ren-

She says: "I spent several weeks in Johnstown, Pa., after the great flood, on account of my husband being employed there. We had sever al children with us, two of whom took diarrhoea very bad. I got some of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy from Rev. Mr. Chapman. It cured both of them.
