Tai Red Republican organs teem to have dropped very suddenly all attempts to explain or palliate the recent Republican outrage upon the President of the United States at WheelingThe Democrats of Indiana hive roboel the State treasury of a f 500,000 surplus, and increased the State debt more than $l,OK), 0C0. This is not a good racord upon which to enter a campaign. Cincinnati Gazette. This can only be answered in one way, and that Is this : It is a lie. Hati the red Republican organs of Chicago, Cincinnati and Philadelphia found oat jet that the finances of Indiana are under the control of Republicans, and that the State Treasury Is staggering along under the blows dealt it by the Republicans of the last Legislature? It is estimated that 12,000 Pennsylvania farmers hare been swindled by Bohemian oats crooks, and that $500,000 has been the cost of their experience. One would think that in a State which gave Blaine 80,000 majority, the folks would read new jpapers, and be on their guard against sharpers. Lccab, the Democratic Treasurer of Auglaize County, Ohio, is missing. Wnat interests the tax payers of the county is the $31.000 of their money that he has taken With him. South Bend Tribune. The amount is almost equal to the "shortage" which Republican ex-Treasurer Hann away, of Marion County, Indiana, is being sued for $32.000. The Constitutional Centennial celebration, which takes place in Philadelphia this month, will be no ordinary aöair. The Governors of twenty-eight States, with their staffs, will be present. President Cleveland will preside. The industrial and civic procession will be one of the greatest ever seen, and the military display, under Gen. Sheridan, will be the largest and grandest ever made in time of peace in this country. Hon. Charles Reeve, of Plymouth, the Commiisianer of Indiana on the occasion, informs us that the hotels of Philadelphia have agreed with the Commission in uniting to charge visitors no more than regular retfs. Beitelicaks appear at their best where they are swindling each other. They4are"so Ely usually that it is on very rare occasions that their rf.3calities are discovered. We have before m an expose by an eye witness to some recent tranas.ions. It comes in the shape cf a communication to the Eresing Republican organ, written by one of whe party, and is as follows: A republican primary election wai held on last Saturday in the tilth ward to nominate a candidate for council .from that ward. This ward is one of the baanar republican wardj of the city, and its primaries would be supposed to be conducted on the high moral plane of honesty and decency, especially as the candidates were members of churches in this city. Take , note of a few features of this primary. First Two of the candidates had sa'ooas just across the street running in their interests; free drinks were exchanged for ' vctesaud influence; in one of them was a citizen of the first ward who seemed to have "plenty" of money, and talked loud for his man. Democrats were voted in this Republican primary. Non-resideais were voted. After each rally from the sloons a contention was got up a nd while attention was detracted from the voting place the illegal voters plied tbelr trde asd got in their work. Quarreling and swearing, the result of too frequent visits crom the way to the saloons, added variety to the scene. The interests of one of these candidates was looked after very actively by a Republican ex-Unite-l States official. Another candidate was groomed fcy an ei-sberiü of Marion County and an ex-councflman, both members of Presbyterian churches in this city. Two superior court judges were silent spectators of the scene, and doubtless their heart) s felled with pride as they looked upon this high moral primary and knew they belonged to the Republican party. A rebate, or at least words of disapproval, would see in to be called for, ''but nary a word." . Tax marked success of the present admiration Is owing largely, eays the Manchester Union, "to the confidence that is felt in it by the merchants, manufacturers and business men generally. The business interests of the country feel safe with G rovr Cleveland at the head of the govrcment. They do cot ask for a brilliant administration ; fireworks are not required. They ask for a "quiet and unobtrusive" government, for honesty, integrity, ability and economy m the administration of - national affairs. The Cleveland administration gives them this, and exactly fills the bilL" It is this fact that drives the Republican blatherskites to eeize npon the bloody shirt and wave it with desperate vigor. There is absolutely nothing else left for them. Under Mr. Cleveland j idpfniat ration the country is prosperous,

confidence ii established and an era of good feeling is taking the place of sectional animosity. The Republican leaders, seeing this, are attempting to inaugurate a cam paign in which the fell spirit of enmity and hate shall prevail and triumph. It will signally fail. The people want peace, and they will btve it in spite of all the bloody shirt foolj in the land. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND WORKINGMEN. It will be well to bear in mind that the Democratic party is not a Trades' Union of any kind. It is not a guild, a brotherhood.

It has no secret signs, grips or passwords. It has no outside and Inside guardians. It has no Grand Master?, no Sir Knights. There is not a man in the Democratic party who can order any other man to stop work or go to work. Not a man in the Democratic party, acting under any authority confessed by the party, who can fix theprice of a day's work of any other man; who can levy any assessment or tax upon him to support any other man in idleness. The Democratic party has no power to order a boycott, or to declare any man a "scab" or a "rat," or to apply to him any offensive sobriquet whatever, for doing anything becoming an American citiztn, and no man capable of conducting a Labor organ, a workingman's newspaper cf any kind, will seek to hold the Democratic party responsible for euch things as belorg exclusively to labor organization?. To do anything of the kind is proof positive that they are not only totally disqualified for the position they hold, but that they are R?publilicans in disguise, seeking by methods that an honorable man would disdain to pursue, to accomplish a purpose which they have not the courage to avow. That we are not mistaken in our estimate of peeudo labor organs, it is only required to notice with what blatant bombast they attack the Democratic party which never laid a straw in their way, but which, on the contrary, has always been first and foremost to advance their intereta, while, with regard to the Republican party, they could scarcely be more quiet and unobtrusive if they were mice instead of men. The great object of working men, so far as we have been able to comprehend their purposes, is to secure fair pay for a fair day's work, and just here we desire, for the benefit of ail concerned, to place the Sentikel equarely on record, not politically, but as an industrial enterprise. The Sestisel, in carrying forward its business, must have printers. What constitutes a fair day's work, printers determine, as a general proposition, for themselves. What constitutes fair jxty the printers ahohtcbj determine for themselves They also determine when they must receive their pay. The Sektisil accedes to these determinations and pays the price demanded. These declarations being true absolutely true what can be the grievance? Just here we unhesitatingly challenge the selfconstituted organs of workingmen to state the facts as we have stated them, and make their comments. This done In the spirit of fairness, open, frank and above board, without subterfuge or duplicity will at once put an end to the senseless effort to damage the Democratic party by falsely assailing the Sentinel. Onr purpose in writing this must not be misunderstood. Workingmen have a right to be heard. Their interests cannot be advanced by falsehood. They are entitled to the truth, and when their chosen or selfconstituted organs engage in vulgar vindication, they become their worst enemies. The truth will out, and when workingmen secure for their services just what the demand, when they work or remain idle as they may elect, when they choo3e their vacation, fix their own time for work, and receive their pay at the time stipulated by themselves, what more could be required even if the Democratic party controlled the situation, which it does not, never did, never can and never ought to. We invite the labor organs, and all other organs, - regardless of persuasion, lo wrestle with the foregoing, and let their readers have the benefit of the 39 cogitations. WHEAT. A writer in the New York Tribune f arnishes that paper with interesting statistics concerning wheat, which farmers, manufacturers, business men and politicians may study profitably. The article says that during the last nine years the equivalent of 1,270,332,533 bushels of wheat have been exported, an average of 141,820,282 j early. Daring the prevloui nine years the exports amounted to 5fl,723.331 bushels, an average of 62,747,037 yearly. Thus it appears that an Increase of 79,000. 000 bushels yearly in the foreign demand has greatly stimulated home production In consequence the yield of wheat has risen from 151,009,900 bushels twenty years ago to 457,218,000 bushels last year, and the proportion exported from G.6 per cent. to 33.6 per cent, of the entire crop. It Is especially noteworthy, also, that the ex ports of flour have surprisingly increased and of late much out of proportion to the exports of wheat, as the following statement for a few selected years sufficiently indicates: Exports Wheat. Experts Flour. Bushels. Barrels 1 MT7 6.14M11 1,300,10 1870 3fi.5Kl.ll5 3.4i", J,a. IhXO 15,2i2,7S 6.0U.419 18S7 102,06283 ll,5r.,431 The writer is of the opinion that wheat , speculation in the United States has done

the American producer incalculable mischief , because It has stimulated foreign buyers to seek their supply more largely each year from other fields, and, as a consequence, have created formidable competition for the European markets. In consequence of which, while this proportion of the crop which was exported in 1S32, was 39.3 per cent, the per cent, of the crop the year ending June 30, 1S37, which was exported, was only 33.6 per cent,, in the aggregate a large falling off. The decline in exports of wheat from the United States have had, it is said, a marked effect npon prices. During the five years ending with the fiscal year 1381-82 the exports of wheat averaged 156,70(5,457 bushels yearly, flour included, but during the last four years the exports have averaged only 123,212,502 bushels yearly, a decline of about 33,500,000 bus tela yearly. As a consequence, the effect on the price of wheat in the United States has been remarkable. The average price, says the writer, for the first five months of each of the years 1863-C7 inclusive, in New York, was $1.8G; for the years 13G3-74 it was $1.00; for the years 1375-77 it was $1.34; for the years 1878-82 it was $1.24; but for the last five years the average price at New York for the Seme months has been oaiy-.tl 01. This decline can in prt, but only in par', be attributed to the great redaction In the cost of transportation, which oa the most important trunk line has bsen from 2 9 cents per ton per m'le for the first period named to .79 of one cent per ton per mile for the last five year J. Part of the decline, alike in the price of wheat and in the cost of transportation, is due to the appreciation in the purchasing power of the ;carrency. But with full allowance for this cause, there nevertheless appears a remarkable fall in the average price of wheat, whicn since 1832 must be attributed In the main to the Influence of competition with Indian and other wheat producing countries. In consequence of this decline the farmers of the Northwest realize 23 cents less per bushel for their grain than they realized during the years

1878-82 inclusive, and the difference to them means many million dollars, while the change in their ability to consume the products of Eastern manufacturers has been seriously affected. With such facts in full view, the farmer can afford to ask himself what benefits have come to him from protection tariff taxation, and why he should continue to vote for a policy that is ceaselessly making him poorer. He is told what he knows to be true, that the price of wheat has declined to an ex tent which has taken from him many millions of dollars. More than $105,000,000 upon the crop of 2387. But while the price of the farmers' wheat has steadily and disastrously declined, ha has been required to pay an enormous protection tax upon an article of necessity ho has con sumed, upon his sugar, trace chains, nails, glass, blankets, cotton and woolen goods, etc., and as the Tribune writer shows the farmer, owing to the decline in the price of his wheat hasn't had sufficient money to purchase largely of the products of Eastern manufacturers, which are enor mously protected. The farmers want lees taxation, and should vote in that direction. SOME INSANE ASYLUM HISTORY. Republican organs of Indiana and any nnmber of Republican ranters, from the blue blooded descendant of "Tippecanoe and Tyler, too," from oily cheeked historical ex-Excellency to the gutter-snipe sanscullote, the filth beslimed poltroon, who for a consideration would stuff a ballotbox, perpeti ate a fraud of any dimension and damn his gizzard by perjury to mike the crimes pan out to the interest of the Republican party, the attacks of these Republican dastards upon the management of the Insane Asylum under Democratic control is a shameful Illustration of Republican methods, and the Foulk crimespawned committee proved itself equal to the emergency, and each member of the gang, nai tne rule oeea enforced which squelched Ananias, a much more respectable liar than either of them, the whole committee would have been reduced to maggot food in much less time than would be required for the fires of the Infernal regions to scorch a feather. Speaking of the Foulk crime-spawned committee, it was the custom of a dis tinguished Democrat, during the last campaign, to take this fellow Foulk and place him before the audience as in court pro ceedings, and put him through an examination as to wh he knew abont the truthfulness of the statements made in his report concerning the management of the Insane Hospital. Foulk, W. D. Foulk, it will be remem bered, was chairman of the crime spawned committee. It will be easy to imagine this W. D, Foulk, on the stand.that he has been sworn and is required to answer: Q. What is your name? A. W. Dudley Foulk. Q What Is your politics? A. Republican of the Dorsey stamp. Q. Are you married? A. Yea. Q. How much property in her own right has your wife? A. About a quaiter of a million, from $250,000 to $300,000. Q Are you worth anything yourself ? A. Yea. Q About how much? A. Well, say from $50,000 to $75,000. Q Then you and your wife represent property valued at from $300,000 to $375,000? A. That is about the alz a of our pile. Q. Are yon the author of Insane Asylum, Civil Service, alias crime-spawned, committee's report? A. Yes. Q You 81 the officers of the Asylum are feeding the insane on maggoty butter and cholera diseased pork? A. Yes. Q. Did yon see any such butter and pork? prepared for the insane, or on the tables of the Asylum? A. No. Q. II ye yourself or wife any relatives in the Insane Asylum? A. Yes, my wife has an aged uncle in the Institution, a brother of her mother, one Dr. Pleasants. Q. Is he violently Insaae? A. Oh, no; only feeble-minded, consequent npon old age. Q Now, Mr. W. Dudley Foulk, you say in your report that the managers of the Insane Asylum feed the Insane in the institution on maggity buttei and cholera diseased pork, and yon say your wife is worth in her own right from $250,000 to $300,000, and that you are worth $50,000 te $75,000, and you say that your wife baa an uncle, a brother of her mother. In the institution, not crazy, but simply feeble-minded, consequent npon old age-

that you know he is fed upon maggoty butter and diseased pork. Is that so? A. Yes, that is about the size of it. Q. Well, Mr. W. Dadley Foulk, do you know that in the opinion of all honorable men and . women, if you tell the truth, that you stand before the people of Indiana a aelfconfessed, venal, heartless, soulless poltroonthat you and your wife, with a princely fortune, permit a near relative a man whose blood flows in the veins of your children, a man whose great age has produced mental infirmity, who is harmless and needs care, to eat day after day maggoty butter and diseased meat, that yon may save a few paltry dollars out of your large Income? Do you know, Mr. W. D. Foulk, that the people do not believe you to be such a vile, mercenary wretch, a creature so devoid of manly, not to say beastly, instincts, as to permit an aged feeble-minded relative to eat such foul food as you have said was fed to your wife's uncle that you might plead the insanity dodge to saddle the expense upon the State rather than pay it out cf your own Income? No, the people do not believe that of you, Mr. W. Dudley Foulk, but thousands and thousands believe that you and the raise ream who was associated with you deliberately concocted the statements contained in your report, knowing them to be lies, and that you perpetrated the lies that yon might gratify partisan malignity and help the Republican party to gain a few votes." It is needless to say, that when the Democratic speaker got through with Mr. W. Dudley Foulk, the people had a pretty accurate conception of the witness, and the verdict was, if he told the truth, be is about the meanest reptile that votes the Republican ticket, and is as destitute of human sympathy as the most degraded,

miserly wretch, who worshipped his dollars amidst filth and squalor, and that If he lied, as it will be known that he did, then he is a still more detestable scamp, who, though rich, is only the more despicable and the more deserving of the execrations of all honorable men. LAND FOR THE LANDLESS. The Republican party, almost from the day that it came into power, began the work of giving away th3 public land to railroad and land sharks of every description. The rights, interests and welfare of the people were totally disregarded by the Republican party. Said the Hon. S. M. Stockslager, a member of the Forty-eighth Congress, from Indiana: "The American people were amazed when they learned that on the 1st day of July, 1SC2, just forty-one days after the homestead law was approved, the same Congress, with a reckless disregard of their own action never before witnessed, granted to the Union and Pacific Railroads a magnificent belt of land forty miles wide, extending from the Missouri River to near the bay of San Francisco, and containing to the Union Pacific 16.115,000 acres and to the Central Pacific 15,200,000 acres. Thus the homestead law, by which the millions of acres of unsettled land was pledged to the people as a heritage to the actual settlers to the men of toil who would cultivate them and make them blossom and bloom and bear fruit was violated, disregarded, and set aside, and a most gigantic system of reckless pquandering of the lands inaugurated. This was an entire change in our land system, both in the manner of disposing of the public lands and of the amounts to be given. Bf fore that date not a single acre of tbe public domain was ever granted to a railroad or other corporation. Donations of the public lands nad been made from time to' time to the States, aggregating in all 31,GW,81G acres, for the "purpose of.being disposed of by the Slates in aid of education, for military roads, for Internal improvements, and for railroads. But the grants were all to the States."; The Republican party.has been from the first the monopolist party. It has sought in every possible way to create an aristocratic class, based npon wealth. It has not only robbed the people of their lands to create a landed aristocracy as crushing as that of England, Scotland and Ireland, but it has Eought by tariff protection to enrich the few by burdening the poor with enormous taxation npon the prime necessities of life. There is no more vital question than that which relates to the public lands, the public domain the broad acres designed by a beneficent Providence for the homes of the people. The Republican party has from the first ignored the people; it baa legislated for the lacd-grabber, the land thief, the land monopolist, the landed aria tc erat, and this policy of the Republican party was kept up until 200,000,000 acres of land was granted to railroad corporations. Says Mr. Stockslager, now acting Land Commissioner, In his speech in the 4Sth Congress: The mind is staggered in an effort to contemplate this Imperial estate granted to great corporations. It can only be grasped by comparison, Yon can carve out of it 1,250,000 homesteads of one hundred and sixty acres each. It is equal to two hundred and forty States the size of Rhode Island. It is equal in area to seven States like Pennsylvania, with her 45 215 iquare miles; four and one-half times as large as all the New England States; equal to tbe thirteen original States, which nave 204,001,280 acres. The total area of Great Britain and Ireland is 74,137,000 acres, or but little more than one-third these grants. There is rot among all tbe enlightened nations of Modern Europe one that has an area which equals that of our railroad kings. The empire of Austria-Hungary and the kingdom of Italy, with Switzerland and the Netherlands added, have an area of only 250,012,620 acres. The creation by law of this most gigantic land monopoly the world has ever seen must in the very nature of things be felt upon our institutions and upon our people. The example of tbe Federal Govern c ent has been followed by some of our States, which have granted millions of acres of their public lands to railroad corporations, or sold them in large bodies to individuals. All te barriers have been thrown down, and to.eign and domestic capitalists have been reaping a rich harvest for themselves in the purchase of vast areas of land. But so far as the people are concerned, they, through their unworthy representatives, hare sown the wind, and they are destined to reap the whirlwind. The Democratic party is now engaged, and has been engaged at all times when an opportunity oflered, to put a stop to 'this squandering oft he public land3 by the Republican party, aud now that it has tbe power to stop the ttupendous wrong it is jfgaicing some of the land the Republican party bestowed npon railroad corporations aud which has been forfeited. A Washington dispatch of re cent date says the Assistant Land" Commistloner has issued orders relative to the land of the Atlantic and Pacific railroad and also la reierence to the Florida Rail way and Navigation, and the GcUI and

Ship Island railway companies, whose land grants all lie in Florida, and also to the Missouri, Kansas and Texas. According to the estimates made officially, the Atlantic and Pacific order throws open to settlement 25,000,000 acres, and the orders toithejlorida Rail wayjand Navigation company, and the Gulf and Ship Island railway companies, will largely increase the amount of land restored to the people, and the policy now being pursued by the Democratic administration, will result in the restitution of fully 50,000,000 acres of the public lands to the people and open them to homestead settlement, enoagh for 312,500 farms of 100 acres each, a hundred; thousand more farms than the:e are in Indiana of.'all sizes. These are subjects which the people can afford to take into consideration. They will discover, on the one hand, the Republican party throwing away the people's land, bestowing it upon railroad corporations, seeking to build np a landed aristocracy, while the Democratic party is resolved by every lawful means, to give as much as possible, of this public land back to the people the rightful owners of the acres.

Washington, September 4 Following is the weather crop bulletin of the Signal oft;ce for the wees: ending September 3. lc7: Lining tbe week ended September 3, the wf alter has been colder than U3aal in the lke region, Ohio Valley, Southern and Atlaitic States, and equally cold from Maryland ßout h west ward to Georgia and A Is buna. In tie tobacco region of Marylard, Virginia rnd North Carolina the daily average naperature ranged from six degrees t nine degrees below the normal. la the corn region west of the Mississippi river the temperature ban been normal or slightly above. The daily average temperature for the season, from January 1 to September 3, very generally, differs less than one degree from the normal iu all the districts, excepting that for Missouri and from Central Dakota southward over tbe western portions of Nebraska and Kansas it varies from one degree to two above the normal, and along the South Carolina and Georgia coasts from one degree to two degrees below, and along Lake Superior from two degrees to three degrees below. During the week the rainfall has been slightly in excess from Eastern Texas Northward to the Missouri Valley, in iflondaandthe upper portion of the Mis souri Valley, and in the other sections there has been a slight deficiency, amounting to about one inch in the South Atlantc and Middle Atlantic States. The defici ency for the season continues large in the lower . Mississippi valley and por tions oi Illinois ana xowa, exceed ing ten inches. Uver per cent. of the usual amount of rain fell in the past month from Eastern Texas northward to theMtssourl Valley, In the Northern portion of Illinois, Southern poruon oi Wisconsin, ana irom western Virginia to Itortheastern Georgia.

The Public Ledger of Monday will contain the fol lowing editorial in its money article: "bo great has been the apprehension for several months about everything relating to the Baltimore and Ob io Railroad management that 'the street' and the newspapers have been almost constantly occupied with rumors of every description, and S3 widespread was tbe distrust that it was not surprising that even some very patent im probabilities and absurdities gained a con siderable fchare of belief. The dav for such rumors should be over now. Ttiere are no hidden parties to the syndicate which has undertaken to straighten out the Baltimore and Ohio s embarrassed finances and to put them again in the strong posi tion they formerly occupied. "There are no secret articles in the pre liminary agreement. The repoit that tbe Pennsylvania Railway Company is a party to the Decollation is entirely without foundation in fact. That company is not a party and has no interest in the agree ment except as part of tbe general public. The syndicate is composed exclusively of tbe banking houses named in biturday's publication, upon authority of Drexel, Morgan & Co. and Drexel & Co. No other parties are concerned in the negotiation either directly or indirectly, and none others have any interest in the syndicate. " It is the pnrpose of the syndicate so far as the iniluence of its members can resch to manage the affairs of the Balti more and Ohio Railroad Company so a) to promote its best interests uninfluenced by the interests of any other corporation, company, or individual." Box Makers Want the J&irtHH Chicago, September 3. A local paptr says: The box maters aeciare tneirinteation of inaugurating a general stnxe &joaday. If carried into effect fully 890 men will quit work in the twenty or more box factories. In case the trouble is not com promised tbe fight is liable to be a long and bitter one. The box manufacturers have been for years at the mercy of their employers. They recently met and organized an association for the purpose of mutual protection aaalnst the exactions of the box makers' union. The l&tter in cludes nearly if not all the box makers in the city, and has not been at all backward in asserting its power. Where a strike has sailed they resorted to the boycott, and in one case were successful In carrying their point with this weapon. The-preeent difficulty arose over a demand by tbe union for a revised t( ale of wages aul a Saturday half holiday. The manufacturers offered to consider the first demand, but positively refused to shut down their shops Saturday noon. The men in the various shops have been instructed to make a final demand Monday or Tuesday, and to strike in the event of an unfavorable answer. A Wall Frrm Chkago. Chicago, Aug. 31. The Tribune this morning in an article on railway discriminations, eays: Owing to the unjust discrimination of railways, over 500,000- hogs have been diverted from Chicago, since March 1. Omaha, which during tbe year preceding, and from March 1 to August 25, 18(J, slaughtered only 30,000 bo;'s, has taken 42,000 of the animals, and Kansas City 100,000 away from Chicago daring the last six months. This is due to the fact that the railways in combination have charged 50 per cent, more for shipping the live hogs from Omiha to Chicago thin for the di eased animal. Tne Lalayctte Rare. Lafayette.

If I had known of the- Ctrticura Remedies" twenty-eight years ago it would have saved me $200 (two hundred dollar?) and an immense amount cf suSenng. llj disease (Psoriasis) conraeDced on my head in a spot not larger tßan a cent. It spread rapidly alf over my body and pot under my nails. The scales would drop off oi me til the time, and mjsuiTcring was eadless, and without relief. One thousand dollars would not tempt me to have this disease or er again. I am a poor man, but I feel rich t bo relieved cf what Borne of the doctors said was leprosy, some ring worm, psoriasis, etc. I took and " Sarsaparillas over one year and a hall, but no cure. I west to two or three doctors, and no cure. I can not praise the Cuticura Remedies too much. They have made my tkin as clear and free from scale as a baby's AU I ucd oi them was three boxes ot Cnueura, and three bottles of Cuticura Resolves t and two cakes of Cuticura Soap. If you had been here and caid you would have cured me for J-J00 you would have had the money. I looked like the picture In your book of Psoriasis (picture number two, "How to Cure Bkia Diseases"), tut now I am as clear as any person ever was. Through force of habit I rub my hands over mv arms and legs to scratch onos In a while, but to no purpose. I am all welL I scratched twenty-eight years, and it got to be a kind of second nature to me. I thank yon a thousand times.
