The reaultiof paign which has ahasbr make Ameriotn bistory fnr at ouarter eg a taiMtt'r to there is every proapeot of Democratic snvceoa, there 'ht argent nrod of Demoeratie work. It should begin at once. In Democratic State. Republican Stotoa aad doubtful States the party should to mote thoroughly orga nixed than it baa ever boon before. Keronixlug 1888 as a decisive year for it, the Republican party has already begun the work of orgaulaatJon, and ft wiu do every thing poaaible to deliver iu full vole. The Democratic party does not need a vast political m nomine auoh as the RcpubJkneM seek to put in operation, but it does need association among DemoeraUi for education nl work. There ought to be a Democratic Mvoeiathw in every city jiredaot and every oountry district. The iuilueuce of such assoeiaUous, forntod now and maintained for better education in the fundamental principles of Democmey, would be more powerful for good than any wo.-k posaibto after the nominations have been made. It is generation since the Republican party came into existence, and in the nature of things it ought to pass out of existence with its generation. It can not maintain its present organisation on the old isftues, and new ieeuesjthrestcn it with disruption. Ihe in I) Hence of the new feneration will decide the Presidential election thai year, and in so doing de ckle whether the new generation is to be hampered in the work it has to do by the dead issues of the dead past. The men who are doing the hardest work of the country to-day in all linos of business are men of the new generation, and the success of the Demo cratic party will be their snceese. If they associate themselves together in their several localities they will exert a moral. fore" that will count for more than their vote? There is actual work to do besides. A district association which did nothing ewe than take ear that the President 3 message should find ita way to every voter in its dis trict would do more for the cause of good government than will he done by all the eloquent speeches' of the catapaign. It is a campaign that will be de cisive, and every Democrat should meet his responsibility and do his share in making it decisive for the right DEMOCRATIC POLICY. Why the Spirit Kf Irmrney Is OppoM tu UwjiMt Taxuttoa. The Democratic party, through its tratlitions. Its platforms and iu Presi dent, is committed to these principles: (1.) The Government kas no con stitutional or moral right to eotleot a revenue in excess of the needs of ito economical administration. Unnecee- . wv . sart taxation is unjust laxaoeu. un just taxation is tyranny, whether im posed in a monarchy or a republic. (2. u A surplus in the Ireanurynna National evil, and may become a 2ationnl peril. It k a standing tempta tion to extravagance. It may perpetuate high taxes for a long period br leadinr; to the laauKuraUoa of expendituree that will be continuous. ai nf The wav to deal with a surplus w to stop its collection. (S.) The taxes to be Srst abated are those which bear heaviest upon the greatest number of peoplenamely. taxes upon universal necesMttes and the essentials of manufacture. Hence, tint food, the fuel, the shelter aad the clothing of the poopk and the raw ma terials of the manufactures should be first relieved in any reduction of taxa tion. These are Democratic principles. Thev should constitute the Democratic policy. Whatever compromise may be required to secure the beet attainable result it u the buHnese of statesman ship to make. Statesmanship hue been defined to be "the science of the prac tical," and the practical duty before Congree is the prevention of the sur- . ....

Ifow, dear children, do net expect a terrible story of a wild animal, for our Tfger wa only a dog. When Jennie and I were little, we teased our mpa for a dog to play with, and one night our hearts were wade glad by his bringing one home to u. It had been liriug in one of the large freight depot in Boston, and had beont so teased by little urchins, that of ton lounge about such places, that be waa fast getting to ba very cross and snappi, so it waa thought beet to get rid of him. He never outgrew hi dislike lor boys, and would not allow them to touch him at nil, but would often chaa them, aad sometime bite them if they came on the premise. Thi hatred axtended even to the youiigeet children, and from a little boy baby he would walk away in diegusL while no would allow a little girl to pull him about without a word of complaint At one time wa had an old cat which wa determined to rear her three little kittens in the closet of mamma's room. The kitten were repentedly earried hack to the cellar, and as often Mistreea Puee would find some way to take bar family back to .the closet. Tiger had evidently been watching the whole operation, and decided to take affairs into his own hand, a you will so when I tell you what happened. One day, Bridget, the cook, saw him go through the kiehen with something iu hut mouth. She followed carefully after him, and what do you think she found? Yon caa not rues, I know, so will tell yon. Tiger had brought down the kittens, one by one, in hi mouth, and carried them into the back yard, where having dug a hole for a a eacM, they had been ptaceu, nnu carefully covered with dirt Bridget rush ed into the houee, and said to us: "Oh I do eome out ia the yard. Tiger haa mode a cat's cemetery." We hurried out to see what she could mean. and. found her word were true. There stood Tiger looking at his work, seem ing; to feel very proud to think he had found such an effectual way of keeping the kittens out of mamma's eioeet Tiger was not always so cruel aa this, but sometime showed great fondfor other am mala. My papa kept many sheep, and one spring there were two IRtte lambs born that were disowned bv the mother sheep. Of course it wonhl not do to let the little things die for want of care, so they were brought to the woodshed, and pat anRer my mamma s protection. They Were soon nasaed Dicky and Biddy, and being fed often with warm milk from a bottle, they grew rapidly. From the first Tiger showed a great likfng for the pet lambs, and weald stretch himself out on the finer br the side of the basket, where he would remain for hours at a time. One day after Dicky aad Biddy kad grown quite strong he got them out of the basket on to the Boor. How thi was accomplished we could never quite tell, but I am quite sure they had some way of making each other understand, so that he coaxed, persuaded and oncouraged theiu to go beyond, the nar row limit of the basket, and see more of the world. After a while they were not contented to roam about the shed, hut extended their journeys to the yard, and sometimes away down the street. This last habit would hare peeved a very troublesome one to w, if it had not been fr Tiger's assistance in bringing them baek. We had but to say: "Tiger! Dicky and RttWy have run awav. Go find then," aad awav he would dash down the street after them. When he overtook then they would all stand for a few ndnnee though there were an expiaaatioa of the ease being given, aad then ha would turn around and ma home with both lamb meekly following him. I are watched him many ttmos, aad I never knew Mm fail to bring thorn hack. Ht nana need to go to Boston every day and return at evening on the horseoars, aad Tiger could asuaUy be found at the gate to meet him. Although ears were constantly peering the house.
