The Mew Store the talk of the Country. Never before has a store created the excitement in a country town as The Model is now doing. No wonder it creates an excitement. Everything is so cheap. The crowds are something wonderful. Night and day the store is full of people, buying goods and saving money at the same time. Every dollar you spend, there is 25 cents saved. The Model buys direct from the manufacturers thereby saving customers two or three profits in buying from us. . , v

The expected joint debates between VV. D. Owen and William R. Myers, the respective heads of the Republican and Democratic tickets, which were to be held in each Congressional district, have been abandoned owing to the illness of Mr. Owen. Chairman Gowdy sent Chairman Taggart a letter, saying he had received a letter from Mr. Owen, who is under treatment at Battle Creek, Mich., that he realized he was still physically unable to address an audience. Mr. Owen says it is with bitter reluctance that he is compelled to take this step. His condition has caused the party leaders much anxiety.

Our neighbor of the Dem. Sentinel is greatly distressed because of the alleged small attendance on Hon. Smily N.Chambers’ speeches, in Rensselaer. Mr. Chambers spoke both afternoon and evening, and in spite of the fact of the confusion arising from changing his hour of speaking at the last minute, from 1:30 o’clock to evening, and then back to three o’clock still there were between 250 and 300 persons who heard one or the other of his speeches. In contrast with this under the circumstances, reasonably good turnout, was the audience at the great democratic campaign opening, last Saturday evening, when at no time was there, by actual count more than 30 persons present during Mr. Collier’s speech;

“In 1892,” says an exchange, “Massachusetts elected a Democratic governor by a plurality of 2,534. The Democratic candidate in 1893 was defeated by 35,697 votes. In New York, a Democratic plurality of 45,518 in 1892 was reduced 70,002 in 1893, or the Republican plurality was 24,484. In Pennsylvania the Republican rose from 63,747 to 135,146 under the influences of the Cleveland yeast powders. The lowa plurality of 22,965 in 1892 grew to 32,-

Little Rhode Island boomed 185 into ! 4,500. Vermont elected a Republican governor, in 1892, by 19,702, and after a careful study of Clevelandism and tariff reform elected a Republican governor the other day by 27,000. Maine, still more injured and indignant raised a 12,531 plurality to 37,000. Such are the genial and missionary results when Cleveland gets to work.”

Senator Allison is giving the lowa farmers very interesting figures regarding mortgages. New York has almost as large a mortgage indebtedness as all the Northwest, including Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and lowa. The Populists have misrepresented the condition of western farmers too long. It is time for Republicans to show their falsity, and Senator Allison is doing it in excellent style.—lnter Ocean.

Still Coming Over.

Abandonment of the free trade fallacy is everywhere noted. The Democratic Press of Newton, 111., announced that its former editor would make democratic speeches in the county and the announcement brought out the following card:

Newton, 111., Sept. 12.—T0 the Editor of the Mentor —In the late issue of the Press, in the column of announcements of meetings by the campaign management, appears the following: “Judge Jas. W. Gibson, will make a number of speeches, although assignments have not yet been made." Will you kindly permit me space in which to correct any erroneous impression in the public mind which might be created by the foregoing notification? I do not see my way clear to support a political organization whpse labor at tariff reforming and through a painfully protracted session of Congress has culminated in an act of legislation properly characterized by President Cleveland as constituting

Populism’s Exit.

St. Louis Star-Sayings: The decline and fall of Populism is a chapter in the Nation’s recent political history the materials for which are coming in very rapidly. Alabama and Arkansas have furnished their quota and Colorado and Kansas, judged by contemporaneous reports, are not far behind. From all the strongholds comes the welcome intelligence that the average voter has repented of the fury with which he erstwhile pursued the false gods of the be whiskered Peffer, the blatant Lewelling, the yelling Lease, the bloody Waite, and all that peculiar aggregation of political nondescripts who followed in their wake.

In other words, the men who partake of politics have convalesced from this epidemic of measles that attacked the Western and Southern commonwealths, and all signs indicate that in the staid Eastern communities the quarantine against the spread of the distemper has been effectual. Under ordinary conditions the rise Of a new party would have been hailed with some show of pleasure by the increasing number of malcontents among Republicans as well as Democrats, but Populism, as espoused by those herein mentioned, quickly made the impression that consistent meihbership was equivalent to political insanity, and after the first impact of the movement its force was soon spent. Now come the season when the composition of its funeral dirges is due. Out of the chaos it sought to create rises the sober sense of the two great parties, and to the extent with which the Democracy has flirted with the movement now dying out it will be judged, along with other causes for judgment, in November.

Anent my little speech on the Conference floor at Lafayette, the Pilot of last week quotes a paragraph from the Indianapolis Sentinel that places me in a false attitude before the public. The first thing I wish to say, is, that I made no attack upon any political party. My remarks were in opposition to an objectionable substitute for a committee report on temperance. The objectionable feature of the substitute, not to mention its lurid rhetoric, was its evident intfent and purpose to commit the Conference in favor of the Prohibition party. My attitude was one of opposition to all partisan deliverances on the subject of prohibition or any other subject, believing them to be out of place, unwise, impolitic, and harmful. The body and soul of my contention was the unwisdom of arraying the Conference with any political party or against any. The bottom principle on which I stood, was, No partisanship in Conference action—nay, not even for the sake of encouraging so good a cause as the Prohibition movement.

Apparently the worst sin in the world, according to some of my Prohibition friends, is to vote the Republican ticket; voting with the Democrats is not quite so bad; but, as they assume, no one can ever hope to become a saint until he joins the Prohibition party. This fallacy has been pushed to the front more than once—in divers ways, and at sundry times and places. Wisely or unwisely I repelled this fallacy with another, in which the scale of party excellence was reversed. Personally I had not been guilty of the sin of voting with the Democratic party (though sometimes voting for Democrats) , and certainly I should never commit the greater folly of sinning away my day of grace in the Prohibition party camp. The one fallacy was simply set over against the other, a species of argument that is perfectly ligitimate, and for vrhich, as it needs none, I make no defense. The word “sin," in the relation I used it has seemed offensive only beeause the remark in which it occurs has been taken as an absolute or unqualified statement. The fact ought also to be remembered, that there was “sin” in the argument I was endeavoring to answer, and so, whether it was the proper thing to use the word or not, somehow it came very handy. The only, and exclusive, purpose of all I said, was, not to lead an assault upon the Democratic party, the Prohibition party, or any other par-

ty but to resist the efforts of a determined minoiity to place the Conference in what seemed, to me a false relation to all the political parties of the day. Not a sentence fell from my lips that wss unparliamentary; nor was I called to order by the pre- - siding bishop; nor was any point of ordtr raised against me. All in all, in my opinion, 1 bibaved myself admirably ! “alsu, in behalf of my friend, Rev. Allen Lewis. The Sentinel (Indianapolis) represents him as saying “the Democratic party ought to be blown to hell with dynamite.” 1 Mr. Lewis spoke in favor of the policy which I had opposed, and, as I understood him, what he wished to blow up (or down), aside from the saloon business, was everybody and everything opposed to the most radical Prohibition party declaration. Whatever he said oi meant to say, he did not use the language attributed to him by the Indianapolis Sentinel: nor did any other party to the discussion use any such expression. Either the Sentinel man was unduly excited or he was misinformer!; And further this deponent saith noU R. D. Utter.
