The | tlon of tbe cities aud fields, of comami Industry thi* war wa>* ; less calamity than th-t of carpet-bag and scalawag rule for teu year*. Republican tariff legislation was a mere system of robbery. It wa* larceny from the many to enrich tbe few. It aggraudlsed Individual* while Imporerishlng communities. It was brigandage in all but name and tbe protection of law. The disfranchisement of vast numbers of voters ibiui.*!. jcrrye’Vbr acts in the various State* Is a Republican crime of great magnitude. No fraud at the ballot box is as great as a law which enables a small number of Republican voter* in one congressional or legislative district to elect a representative while a far greater number of Democrats in another district are deprived of just representation. This catalogue of political crimes—of gyimes of maladministration and crimes In office—might be Indefinitely extended. But It would be Incomplete without a reference to the instances of scan dal aud corruption in the local Republican administration. From the murder of Inmates In the county Insane asylum to the fraud on the civil service involved In the disfranchisement of veteran soldiers for employment and from the prostitution of the police force In ik» litical use* to the investment of county and city money for private gain there Is no species of mlsgorernment and public Immorality of which tbe Republican machine administration in the city and county is not guilty. It is a monumental wonder that a party with this record—and much more that is as bad or worse—is aide to command. year after year, a majority of the votes 111 many of the great Slates and often in the nation. It is certain that a reckoning will come at some time. Two national defeats within ten years and defeat in many States have already resulted from popular effort. The period cannot be far away when the Republican party will be driven permanently out of power and out of existence.—Chicago Chronicle. No More Tmrlff Tinkering. Tbe "Ohio idea” about the tariff, as set forth in the si*eechos made by the leaders of the party at the opening of the campaign, not only falls to evoke any enthusiasm, but encounters sharp rebuke in other State*. The Buffalo Express coolly serves notice upon the McKlnleyites that “tbe Ohio Republican* must not expect that the people are going to rip business all the way down tbe back for their benefit.” The President of the Massachusetts Senate says that in his opinion “the general revival of business is occasioned by the confidence that the business men of tbe country feel that there is to be no more tariff tinkering for many years.” It Is

Th.» high t.ir.iT also caused the invention of Improved rolling mill* and other machinery which have been atlopted during the past twenty year*. At tbe same time it pat great deposits of coal where It could be easily mined, and created the rich iron mines of the Northwest. At least, it must have done those things if the Tribune is right, for it was due to their existence that t !«• price of steel rails has fallen. Only the Tribune forgot to say that steel rails are now about $5 a ton cheaper in free trade England than in »l»ls eoun try. If protection puts down price* here, what caused tuen. to fall in ICugland? Not our competition, for our prices are still higher than abroad. Which Tax 1* Best for the People! The New York State Republican convention denounced tbe i/emocratic income tax. which propoaed to lighten the taxes on articles of consumption, and to raise or porri’on of~ the public revenues from the accumulated wealth of the country, as "an iniquitous tax on Industry and thrift." Coming from a party which established the monstrous system of high tariff taxation, this la exceedingly rich. According to these Republicans a tax on Incomes over $4,000 a year would be “Iniqußotis,” while heavy tariff taxes on everything that the farmer and workingmen consume arc wise and Just! t tnc hundred per cent tax on blankets for the many Is the McKinley plan for exempting industry. Two per cent on large incomes would reach some of the revenues of protection created monopoly and so is condemned by Republicans.

It is said to he a swift and sure cure for deafness. and. as a balm or lubricator for sore muscles or stiffened joints, is far ahead of chloroform liniment or any other remedy known to materia medics. In regard to the poison injected by the bite of a rattlesnake, Mr. Cook said it was far more deadly in its effects than that of a pilot and required prompt attention. He had a painful but not serious experience w ith each, as his scarred hands testify. When bitten he never thinks of consulting a doctor or drinking whiskey, hut gather* a handful of blue violet leaves and stems and. crushing them. makes a poultice which he applies not on the wound but on the swelling around it. Upon the bitten part he applies equal parts of salt and indigo. This application is renewed every half hour. Three applications are generally sufficient to effect a cure. Mr. Cook says he has observed that call snakes lie dormant until blue •violets appear in the spring and that they all disappear after the leaves of white ash trees begin tc —fafl in autumn ; and so great is theli antipathy to ash hark or leaves that they will recoil from them as fror* fire. _ New Race of Roses. What is now described as “ a new race of [polyantha roses” has been known to rose—fanciers -for several years. It is a cross between the polvantlia and a hybrid perpetual, with perhaps an accentuation of the tea —blood of the hybrid. It bloom* constantly, is hardy with little or no -pro tec tio n , and is perhaps the best of all roses for border*. The Clotilda fciouDert is a irood example of it. The science of hybridization is carried to a higher degree of perfection in roses than any tiling else, but still the best new roses are nearly always acci- j dental hybrids created by bees and butterflies . When men assist nature she shows them liow to improve on their best efforts. The only bird that sings while flying is th-» lark.

The shrewd school boy, who pnttlol hi* • companions by dartug them to »pe« bouse, lea lung in seven letters, and then solved it by spelling Sapolio, must have recognized the intimate cc»»ecti"n between th*se two idea# which haa leet bu'.'t up by s va*t ••xie , nu.turw of money, i U f»« iei rera, ,‘-e-a r-a, though ' a!ue.. •• ; singly, are worth hundred* of thouaatid* of dohara when used in conne,‘tiou with soap. The printed matter, paintr<l signs, and countless devices to make the name popular pass away annnaiiy, almost as feat aa they are paid for; but if prujerly managed, the trait name accumulate* and carries forward the value as a permanent investment. An article of real worth, clearly named and widely mad* known to the public, ia aurs of a brilliant success. Sapolio affords abundant evident!* of this. Its great utefuine**, ita I distinct but descriptive natpe. and It* !*' most universal x-suiSed ia aagriwt guvcess to . a aa in a*»i*tance to tbe housekeepers of the world. Such an investment aa the tradename Sapolio needs no fire insurance, and cannot secretly be conveyed to Canada. If

ump«r«d with or infringe upon, it muit b* done openly, snd modern law with each succeeding year recognize* more forcibly than before the rights of trade-name own- i ere, and punishes with greater luacrity u — ;'tr !>*. The manufacturera of Sapolio hare successfully orer-thr-jw n countless Imitations, and re understand that they are now prosecuting dealers who silently pass another article over their counters when the customer has plainly asked for Sapolio. This is a new departure in law, but is clearly equitable. It promises to add another link to the laws which assist in the defense of trade marks and trade names. An attempt to imitate Is always despicable. except when monkeys or stage Mimic's are thereby enabled to amuse an audience. Yet although the history of trade furnishes no instance of a really successful imitation, still hundreds attempt it every year. In the office of the Sapolio mannfacturers there is a Ohamber of Horrors where the proprietors keep samples of the many cakes of imitation stuffs which have been vainly put forward only to meet with prompt failure or to drag out a profitless existence through a few years. The public is too discriminating to buy an inferior article on the assertion that it “is just as good as Sapolio.” The man who attempts to deceive by imitating the name or appearance of another man’s goods is a self-proclaimed liar, and however general the vice of falsehood may be. it is a fact that even liars have no sympathy for one of their kind. The public asks uo better proof of inferiority than that rhe goods are pushed forward under the cover of a better reputation. nnd the (Ihsnihsf «f Hiernw In Sapolio Tjulldlng tel is in plain terms how the public recognizes and deapises such attempt*. It la not an empty faith or visionary speculation that leads these well-known manufacturers to expend hundred* of thousands of dollar* in constantly reminding the world of Sapolio.

They have become intimate with the people. Sap dio is a household word, always spoken vith good will, as if it were a familiar friend.

For man's illusion given; But woman, with Sapolio, Can make that show a heaven. Boeva, artists, designers, clever writers, many of whom would not condescend to
