FRIDAY, MARCH 0, 1894.

TIIK total cost of the World's Fair, according- to the official report, was §27.448,521. It was a good investment.

ST. Lons Olohc-Democrat: There are more kinds of Democrats in the country at the present time than there are brands of baking powders.

TIIK Sugar Trust is correct in its assertion that its 3500.000 contribution to the Cleveland campaign fund entitles it to favors at the hands of the Democratic party.

TIIK "Tom Reed Democrats" arc few but they are often very powerful in crises. Hv combining with the Republicans they are frequently able to repeal or avert bad financial legislation.

England, we are told cannot regain prosperity until after business improves in this country. Then let England tell its Democratic friends here to get their tai iff bill oat of the way as soon as possible.

THE value of the dutiable article imported last year, and which it is proposed by the Wilson bill to transfer to the free list, was- 850,023,409, the amount of revenue collected therefrom being $13,780,022.

THOSE Democrats in the Senate who are opposing the Wilson bill get at the meat of the question when they say that tariff reform with §100,000,000 surplus is different from tariff reform with .5100,000,000 deficit.

IT will be amusing to see the Democrats straddling on the income tax question in 1890. They will probably declare that it is a local question and relegate it to each Congressional district. as they did it one time on the tariff.

TJIK chief embarrassment the Republicans had to contend with under the Harrison Administration was a $100.000.000 surplus. The chief embarassment the Democrats have to contend with under the Cleveland Administration is a $75,000,000 deficit.

TIIK Republican primary election for the selection of a city ticket will be held to-morrow. The only troubles that the voters are encountering is an embarrassment of an abundance of good material from which to select. Hut one man for each office can be nominated, and it is the duty of those •who get left to go to work as zealously for the election of the successful man as he would had he been chosen him self. .......

"No another man or another dollar to continue this unholy war.''—nth of January con rciilimi. Democratic /ilatform, 18(1-1.

In the course of a speech in which he had occasion to reply to Senator Voorhees' claim to be "the soldiers' friend," General Harrison gave utterance to the following vigorous language during his Senatorial career that is equally applicable to nearly the entire Democratic administration. Old •soldiers would do well to digest the •thought: "The man who lived through the war of the rebellion and did not make *ome sacrifice for the success of the Union armies—who did not say one brave word or do one brave thing, when, with bare and bleeding hearts our soldiers looked into the very face of hell /or their country—can never be .enshrined as the soldier's friend.'"

TIIK Republican Central Committee met last Saturday and determined upon the time of holding the county convention, and fixed Saturday, June 2. This was a compromise between those who desired the convention to be held in April and those who favored a date as late as July. This will give the candidates ample time to get their fences in order and will enable the successful aspirants to make a systematic and thorough canvass of the county before the election takes place The reports from all parts of the county are uniformly favorable for the success of the Republican ticket. What the people are most solicitous about is that the convention shall give them good men to vote for. The delegates should be wedded to no man or set of men but when they come together should carefully look over the ground and select a ticket that will be strong singly and in all its parts. This done and with united and systematic work Montgomery county is good for from 300 to 000 Ilepublicon majority.

HOW TIIK COLXTliY IS iil l.KI). Just now the country is under the dominion of King Caucus, and King Caucus is under the dominion of the "brigadiers'"' of the South. And thus we are all compelled to bow to the will of the •'brigadiers.'' As Senator lJrice put it the other day. three exConfederate generals construct a revenue measure called the Wilson bill: they fix it up as they want it. then the rest of the committee approve it and King Caucus at length takes it up and agrees to put it through the Senate. The peonle, as demonstrated by the Ohio and Pennsylvania elections, are opposed to the Wilson bill, but this counts for nothing against the three brigadiers who constructed the measure. The Northern Democrats go into a caucus with the Southern free traders and agree to abide by the result of the caucus vote. Three men thus put down Ohio's 81.000 and Pennsylvania's 187.000 majority and this is called a government by the people. Hut it is in fact a government just now controlled by a triumvirate of "brigadiers." so palpably that even some Northern Senators are beginning to see it and denounce it.

FHKK TKAJJK IN TILE SOUTH." The late Henry W. Grady very tersely described the effects of free trade in the South in the following:

I attended a funeral in Pickens county, Georgia. c,f a poor man. They buried him in the midst of a marble quarry. They cut through solid marble to make his grave, yet the little tombstone they put above him was from Vermont. They buried him in the heart of a pine forest, and yet the pine coflin was imported from Cincinnati. They buried him within toucn of an iron mine, and yet the nails in his coffin and the iron iu the shovel that dug his grave was imported from Pittsburg. They buried him beside the best sheep grazing country on the earth, and yet the wool in the coflin bands, and the coffin bands themselves were brought from the North. The South did not furnish a thing for that funeral but the corpse and the hole in the ground. They put him away and the clods rattled down on the coflin, and they buried him in aNew York coat, and a Boston pair of shoes, and a pair of breeches from Chicago, and a shirt from Cincinnati, leaving him nothing to carry into the next world with him to remind him of the country in which he lived, for which lie fought for four years, but the chill of blood in his veins, and the marrow in his bones.

IT will be remembered that Commissioner Peck, of the New York bureau of labor statistics, created a sensation in the campaign of 1892 by reporting the great prosperity then prevailing in all the lines of industry in that State. Larger employment, higher wages and greater earnings were the substance of his report then. It is quite different now. The report of the Democratic Labor Commissioner of New York- for 1893 contains returns from 2.010 establishments, representing- six-ty-four industries, of which 700, or 3 per cent., have been ,either entirely closed or are running on short time, while 494 establishments show an absolute reduction of wages. The Democratic party censured the former report because it declared for prosperity ind it will be equally indignant against the latter report because it as a tale of woe.

TIIK literature of the word "cuckoo.' as a political term, is growing. The latest contribution thereto is the following historical reminiscence from correspondent of the New York Suit:

I remember reading somewhere that John Randolph, on one occasion, while making a speech attacking the administration. was constantly annoyed by the interruptions of a member from Ohio. Finally, Randolph bceame very angry and said: "Sir. Speaker, in llol land a poor working man with a few pieces of wood and strips of leather makes a mechanical contrivance which, when pressed between the thumb and forefinger makes the sound cuckoo cuckoo! Nature has been more generous to the gentleman from Ohio, but Mr. Speaker, the result is the same. The term then came into general use for a supporter of the administration and was frequently used, even as lately as the time of President Johnson.

IK the Wilson bill could be voted on by the people to-day every State in tin north and west would give majorities against it just like those given in Ohio and Pennsylvania: and Louisana, Ten nessee, Alabama and West Virginia would go against it as surely as Ohio would. And yet the brigadiers who insist on pushing it through Congress pretend and proclaim on the floor of Congress that the popular demand for the measure is so great that they dare not disregard it. What nonsense!

JOHN Y. MCKAXK, the Democratic boss of Brooklyn, has donned the stripes at Sing Sing and has been set to work in the tailoring department He perhaps will make the striped clothes for the twenty-five other Dem ocrats sent up from New York for fool ing with the election returns. Tam many is just now trembling in its boots as there are fifty others on the tenter hooks.

IT will be observed that the bloody shirt waving is being done by Demo crats and not by Republicans now Right from their own party comes this denunciation of the "rebel briga diers."

ONE YEAlt OF DEMOCKACY. One year ago to-day President Harison. honored and respected by the intelligent masses of his countrymen, an able and faithful public servant, turned over the keys of the executive mansion to Grover Cleveland and retired to privale life. Mr. Cleveland took the oath of oiiice in the midst of a list throng of political friends and tdinirers—scarcely, if ever, excelled on my other occasion of the kind in the istory of the country. Although lacking almost a million votes of a popular majority, it seemed to the unthinking multitude that the principles and policy which he represented, ad been approved and indorsed by the by the country. The situation engendered, in the hearts of Mr. Cleveland's followers at least, high hopes of prosperous and popular administration. The air was rent with shouts of great free trade revival. A new era was begun, during which all classes were to prosper, grow rich and enjoy life as they had never done before. Even across the great waters, in that mighty empire-"whose morning drumbeat encircles the globe,"' there were shouts of rejoicing mingled with exclamations that the Cobden Club, like Alexander, had at last conquered the world and unfurled the banner of free trade never to be hauled down again.

But now. at the end of one short year, what has become of this beautiful picture that fancy had sketched'.' It was the frost-work on the window pane. It has all vanished, and in its stead we see hundreds of thousands of our worthy countrymen thrown out of employment and beging for bred: soup-houses established all our cities to save the shivering poor from actual starvation: uncounted millions of dollars lost forever by an unaccustomed stagnation in business which has sent its poisonous effects nto almost every household in the land, and even into the business heart of the Old World. When Mr. Cleveland took up the reins of -government one year ago, everything was bright— all were happy. To-day all is gloom and sorrow and distress. Property is without value debts go unpaid: the National Treasury itself, which has been overflowing for twenty years, is to-day bankrupt, and bonds are issued to save the country dishonor. A miserable fiasco in the Hawaiian business has excited contempt for our diplomacy. A little coterie of Confederate military officers is permitted to rule the councils of the Nation to the detriment of all our great industrial enterprises it robs the laborer of his employment. leaves him without the means of supporting himself and his family, and the dougli-faces of the

North, with one or two exceptions, are as dumb in its presence as a slave in the presence of his master.

But looking away from this gloomy picture to-day we see a ray of light. The people are the masters after all. md in the end they will have their way. Mclvinley's 82.000 majority in Ohio, and Grow's 187,000 in Pennsylvania are clear indications that the people of all parties are disgusted with this administration and mean to repudiate it at the next election, with a vim and vengeance and an emphasis heretofore unknown in the politics of the country. It is as well settled today as anything can be settled, that those who would degrade labor and cripple or destroy our great industries can never again rule in the councils of this nation. One short year's experience has taught a lesson that will not be forgotten while any of those who have experienced its disasters, shall live. The laboring men of the country are now thoroughly undeceived, and hereafter they will march to the polls to cast their ballots, as one man, for protection and prosperity: for high wages iu American industries, and happy homes tilled with food from our own fields and pastures, and raiment from our own spindles and looms. The next President, like Washington, will be inaugurated in a suit of homemade goods, and more than likely it will be manufactured from the raising' of the wool to the sewing on of the buttons either in Indiana or Ohio. Mark the prediction!

The Great Senator and Representative Recommends Dr. Greene's Nervura Blood and Nerve Remedy to the Weak, Nervous and Ailing. It is the Best Spring fledicine to Take.

KOI5ABLV more depends upon the character of the recommendation than on anything else. If a person you personaiipiy know tells you that

Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem­

edy will cure you because it cured him, you take him at his word. Here is Massachusetts' greatest and foremost statesman whom all our readers know, I Ion. ex-Speaker Noyes, of the House of Representatives, who tells you what this wonderful medicine, l)r. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, has done for him. and advises you to take it and get well, if you are sick. weak, nervous, sleepless, debilitated or run down in health. lie assures you that it cured him and he is positive that it will cure von.

HON. EX-SPEAKER CHARLES J. NOYES.

The newspapers say of Hon. Mr. Noyes: "No citizen of Hoston stands higher in public estimation than lie. A lawyer of the greatest eminene and highest ability, he is a born leader of men. In public life for nearly half a century, he is a representative citizen, one of the most popular and best known men in the United States. '•He was elected a Senator and was eight times returned to the House of Representatives. It shows in what high estimation he is held by the people that he was five different years elected speaker of the House of Representatives. Gov. Long- made him a Justice, knowing that he is of unquestioned integrity, superior ability and great conscientiousness. A man of majestic brain, he is a great statesman and lias few equals as an orator. lie was at one time a candidate for Lieut.overnor and he nominated Alger for President, in the National Convention."

Such is the the eminence and standof the gentleman who writes the following for the public welfare: •Having-used Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy during my convalesence from a severe rheuma-

Danger To Our Free Schools. Rev. R. S. Inglis took "Our Public Schools" as the subject of his discourse Sunday night,at the First Presbyterian church. He said that the free public school system was worthy the attention of the American pulpit, as the schools were a necessity for popular freedom. He could see in the country school a chance to develop in a scholar a stronger individuality that in city schools, from the fact that there was the absence of so many regulations that are necessary in city schools. Our free school system was thoroughly

American, while that of parochial was not, as the one tends to make good citizens first, and the other to turn out good Catholics first and then citizens. The former teaches independence and the latter dependence. The scheme on foot in New York and Maryland to divide the school funds be termed as a Catholic plan to break down our school system. With such a lxw every denomination would be entitled to its per cent, of the school
