Judging from the weather lately one would suppose the ground-hog had really seen his t hadow this year. Be a little cautious about going security for a man who takes no newspaper and keeps two dogs. — Ram’s Horn. If “uckin’ and lamin’” go together the America people ought to get lots of “lamin’” while the new postage stamps are in use. Mr. CLEVELAND.is probably reserving foreign missions for the sorely disappointed, the distance being measured according to their wrath. For instance. Isaac P. Gray and W. R. Morrison will be sent to the farthest ends of the earth. —News.

The London Statist is of the opinion that the gold being poured out of this country is in response to the demands of Europe in preparation for the greatest war the world has ever,known.

Kansas is in a state semi-civil war. Never since the bloody days before the war in the contest over the slavery question has been such excitement as that of the past week in the capital of the state. It is a pretty spectacle when men representing themselves as law makers, —as men worthy of representing the interests of the people, show no more respect for law than have the Populists of Kansas. The Republicans long since expresed 'their willingness ro submit the question as to which was the legal legislature to the courts and to abide by the decision but the Populists have declared themselves unwilling to listen to any descision of the courts. Their resistance took the form of brute force when it was possible by simple habeas corpus proceeding before a court of their own creation to tost the legality of their position. A party showing such disregard for law is unworthy the name and place of the law-maker. All their campaign utfterances in favor of reform vanish in the light of thenacts, and the reformation degenerates into the mere desire for power.

The Republican party retires from a control of the country which has been honorable and succesful in a i.‘markable degree. It is defeated hut not disgraced. Its opponents must prove their ability to control or their victory will be be empty of honor and barren of results. Their trouble will come when they are called upon to crystallize tlu declaration of their platform into a general policy of administration. There are indications that the trouble from that q uarter will be serious m the verge of i isruption. The Democratic party has a good many brainey, patriotic men in its councils. Unfortunately 1 aat class does not cast a majority of t ue votes. There are breakers enough in the road the Democratic party is traveling to wreck it beyond hope in \ ne next four years. All the Repub1 cans need to do is to stand by and watch the preforniauce. It is not necessary to add to the troubles of the niajoruy. L will be bad politics to

\ — do so. Any combined effort on the part of the Republicans to hinder legislation will only result in solidifying the majority and reconciling their difference, if they are reconcible. The Republicans must stand to their colors, stop intestinal, personal quarrels, crucify the “bosses,” break all slates, and put up only good men for office, and they will deserve success, at least, if they do not achieve it.—Cincinnati Tribune. THROUGH DKJIOCBATIC GLASSES. The following clipping from the Indianapolis Sentinel doubtless will prove interesting reading for many who helped to elect and help to support our present legislature. If taken from a Republican paper it would probably be regarded as unworthy of attention, but coming as it does from the Democratic organ at our State capital, they cannot fail to feel its poignancy. Here it is. Read it and reflect whether the great State of Indiana wants another such legislature:

The spectacle presented is sickening. The people's time is being wasted, important and needed legislation is neglected and a frightful example of incompetency is being established to rise up and torment the majority party when it next goes to the polls. The factionists who have brought about this condition of affairs are not only recreant in their duty to their constituents but also in their fealty to their party. Representatives Cullop, Hench, Fippen, Williams and others who were responsible for Thursday’s waste of time and exhibition of puerility ought to know that they must stop this sort of thing or the Democratic party as well as the State's interests will suffer. They are simply making spectacles of themselves to the amusement of their Republican opponents and the disgust of their constituencies. It is time for this sort of thing to be stopped. It is time for the State's business to be attended to. It is time that a Democratic legislature were demonstrating its fitness to legislate for the whole people. In short, it is time for this foolishness to stop. Democratic legislators are not sent to Indianapolis to build up or break down any political machines; they were not sent here to neglect the State’s business; they were not sent here to play the sulky school boy; they were not sent here to split their party organization. The sooner they fully realize these facts the better it will be for them and for the Democratic party.

Ten Commandments. Here are ten commandment taken from an exchange, not from the book of Moses. They are good ones, however, and if followed won Id make Hope flourish; 1. Thou shalt not go away from home to do thy trading; thou, nor thy wife, nor thy son, nor thy daughters. 2. Thou shalt patronize thine own merchants that they may also patronize thee. Make haste, therefore, and purchase that which shall cause thy countence to shine with intelligence and bring prosperity to both. 3. Thou shalt employ thine own mechanics, that they be not driven from their homes to find bread for their little ones. Thou shalt also consider him that is thy neighbor above him that dwelleth in a strange town. 4. Thou shalt not ask for credit as goods cost much money and the merchant’s heart is worried with bills. His children clamor daily for bread, and his wife abideth at home for the want of such raiment as adorneth her sisters. Blessed, yea thrice blessed, is the man who pays cash. 5. Thou shalt not ask for reduced prices for thy “ influence,” for behold guile is in thy heart; and the merchant readeth thee like an open book. He laugheth thee to scorn and shouteth to his clerks ha, ha! 6. Thou shalt do whatever lieth in thy power to encourage and promote the welfare of thine own town, thine own people. 7. Thou shalt not suffer the voice of pride to overcome thee, and if other towns entice, harken not unto them for thou mayest be deceived. 8. Thou shalt spend thy earnings at home, that they may return whence they came, and give nourishment to such as come after thee. 9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against the town wherein thou dwellest but speak well of it to all men. 10. Thou shalt keep all these commandments and teach them to thy children to the third and fourth generation that they may be made to flourish and grow in plenty when thou art laid to sleep with thy fathers. For instance, Mrs. Chas. Rogers, of Bay City, Mich., accidentally spilled scalding water over her little boy. She promptly applied De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve, giving instant relief. T t’s a wonderfully good salve for burns, bruises, sores, and a sure cure for piles. S. Stapp & Son. Geo. s. cook, DEALER IN 3L. XJ 3UC B E R , LATH AND SHINGLES. RED CEDAR POSTS.
