Ti! Pennsylvania Dcmwirate performed the grand tariff straddle act at their {State convention. Nobody can tell from tlto platform whether they are for freojtnule or protection. Can they run another rational campaign on such a platform? 5t is guessed that the leading bears in Wall street have recently made the following amounts: S. V. White, $200,000 Harvey Durand and A. E. Bateman $300,000 each and Jay Gould a "divvy" all round. The Wall street gamblers don't play for fun.

Tho Socialists have also decided to put a ticket in the Held in New York this fall and tho Prohibitionists have split and will probably have two tickets. New York politics will certainly be sufficiently picturesque and variogated during the present crmpsign.

seven-eighths

tho mouthers of the New York Prohibition convention wero formerly Republicans, hns not added to the peace of mind of the Republicans, thinks the New York World. But tbon they havo tho Ooorgolte* to fall back upon and that is something.

Tiik old, battered silk hat worn by Mr. Blaine on his tour through Pennsylvania in ISS4 is carefully preserved under glass by the Republican oommittee of that state. It will do no harm so long as It is kept there, but It may possibly got battered very much more if It shall try to go through another campaign.

At tlto reeonFmarrlftge of Douglas Carlln, a whito man, to a Sioux half-breed, the daughter of the queen of the Minnooonjous, the feast included soup made of 400 dg* and 10 oxen roasted whole. The dancing lasted three days without Intermission, as t'ast as one Indian was exhausted a fresh one taking his place. Not many jicrsons would care to celebrate their nuptials in that fashion.

TIIK declsTon~of the receiver of the wrecked Fidelity bank of Cincinnati to nue tho directors on the theory that by their criminal negligence they became per^ounlly liable for the debts of the bank, is one that will bo heartily ap proved by the public. It is high time to l\nd out whether bank officers Bre mere figureheads or are bound to know somethin of what is going on in the bank.

THKUK are now and then discoveries made in prohibition State* that are not particularly reassuring. In Iowa, for instance, it Is said there are 40,000 people who use opium and the question Is whether the suppression of liquor drlnaIng tends to Increase the opium habit Recently a supposed drug store in Wichita turned out, on examination, to be a -combined saloon and whisky manufac tory and some of the liquor, compounded of drugs and chemicals, was strongly tinctured with arsenic. These are not pleasant revelations.

Ma. GcaD6Toxk has published an article in the Nineteenth Century magazine in which he gives some interesting deductions from the recent English elections. He shows that while a general gain of 6 per cent-, would reverse tho majority in Parliament, tho late elections have resulted in gains equal to 22 per cent, in favor of the Gladstonians. The near advent of a Home Kule majority in Parliament soems to be assured, and the final victory of the Grand Old Man cannot be much longer delayed.

IT seems that Robert Lincoln protests too much that he is not and does not wish to be a Presidential candidate. While denying any interest in the matter he is careful to give his views with suspicious .elaboration on the chief political questions of tho day. Moreover, there area great many newspapers containing marked articles about Mr. Lincoln going through the mails, whicli would indicate the Industry of an organized literary bureau somewhere in Mr. Lincoln's interest. But of this if it exists, he may of course know nothing. Putting all these straws together, however, they seem to point in a direction quite opjKsite from Mr. Lincoln's talk.

IT is emphatically denied from Washington that Mrs. Cleveland will write a magazine article and the explanation given is that the president suffered great anuoyance by reason of the literary proclivities of his sister Rose, whom he opposed in vain. It is all well enough if Mr. Cleveland does not want his wife to dabble In literature, for which she probably hasn't the least taste or talent. But his irritation at his sister's course does not seem entirely justifiable. She had her own way to make In life and had a right to her own method of doing it. She had the same right as any othor woman to go into literature if she saw lit to do so, tho only question being her qualifications for thejwork. These were certainly very meager, as it turned out, but that was her own business and that of her publishers. Mr. Cleveland's vexation at her conduct was entirely uncalled for.

A BOSTON paper says: "Everybody ought to go somewhere whenever there is a chance during the next two months. An open-car ride to West Roxbury Park, UrookUne or Dorchester is the least that can be done, and double pay awaits the tmvnllnr to anv of those suburban retreats. The most that can be done In the open car is to rtdo to Middlesex Falls, and all Boston Hliould RO out there nnd get lost in that wonderful wilderness. The steamboats will take the seeker for autumnal glories down the harbor and spread before him the entrancing landscape of the south shore and the Islands: or to Nahantor Gloucester and open before hint tho surpassing panomma that nature is stretching tuoug the rocky cllOs of the north shore. Then there are the glorious blue hills tif Milton. They are not the easlestof access, but they arc beautiful enough to make It worth twice the trouble It takes to reach their superb silence."

Wo may have nothing ho "fine in tho way of autumnal sconery as that which Hurrouiuls Now York and Boston, or rewards the traveller along the historic Hudson. But hero and everywhere thore are landscapes? well worth seeing when tho glorious mantle of autumn has fallen upon them. The woods, tho fields, the river bank, are rich in coloring after the first frosts havejstalned the foliage the air is electric and Inspiring, and the deep, illimitable {sky ,is :grander than anv ocean view. Go out and enjoy them.

OJV DRESS PARADE.

There is no dark cloud, It is said, but has a silver lining and an Eastern newspaper argues that thero is something to be said in frvor of, as well as against, tho modern tendency to hotel and apartment house living. One of the chief objections to it Is the inevitable publicity of family life, the being constantly seen and observed by others

The writer explains that there ts a desirable side even to this in tho constant necessity of being constrained to both good clothes and good manners. It is an antidote to the tendency to fall into ship-shod deshabille. The writer says: "To persons who are in no danger of lapsing Into this, there can be no feeling of constraint when such a danger exists it is well to have It corrected by constant contact with social life."

There is a point in this but it goes rather too far. To appear always at one's best is asking too much of ordinary humanity. We do not wish to be on a perpetual dress parade. There are times when appearances most be sacrificed to comfort and restful ease. Doubtless there la too mueh of the opposite thing In many families an excess of slovelinesa in dress and carelessness In manners, much of which could be omitted without sacrifice of comfort. In this ss In all other things, it is "the golden mean" that Is to be desired.

1 HE SUA KKSPKARE CIPHER. For several years past Mr. Ignatius Donnelly, of Minnesota, fees been at work on a book which Is expected to throw a good deal of new light oo the old Bacon-Shakespeare controversy. The book le now completed end wiU be pub Uahed In about three months under the title of "The Great Cryptogram." ftrom Hbm to time the author fam indicated somewhat the plan of the work and it has aroused so much interest that the New York World recently «w*t Mr. Thomas Davidson, a very competent Shakespearean scholar and critic, oat to

.....

Minnesota to interview Mr. Donnelly and prepare an,article on the subject. The ingenuity and strength of Mr. Donnelly's argument is evidenced by the statement of Air. Davidson that al-

place ought to be filled by an American, though a thorough believer in Shakeand there are men in this country quite competent to fill it, if only they can be found. Some one has said that Grant was almost overlooked daring the war, bat somehow these great big men have a way of being fonnd out sooner or later. The in- is fill Plymouth pulpit jdll doubtless be discovered In due timeiy%

speare's claim to the authorship of the plays before meeting Mr. Donnelly, his faith has been very much shaken. The new and most surprising part of the work is the hidden cipher or cryptogram which the author claims to have discovered in the text of the folio edition of 1623. By the ingenius use of italics, brackets, hyphenated words, etc., according to certain rules which Mr. Donnelly claims to have discovered by long and painstaking research. Bacon distinctly affirms himself to have been the author of the plays and gives a narrative containing a whole history of Shakespeare and his relation to the plays and of the time in which he lived. All this is ingeniously woven into the text and bodj of the plays by means of a seciet cipher, the key to which it would seem almost iuipossiblo to discover, so complicated is it. Whatever may be the effect of Mr. Donnelly's book, so far as convincing the public of the truth of his theory is concerned, it will undoubtedly attract very wide attention and will cause a igorous reopening of the Bacon-Shake spoare controversy.

^THE UTE DIFFICULTY. The Ute outbreak in Colorado may or may not bo over. It is possible that the Indians may be quieted and induced to stay peacefully on their reservation. On the other hand, there is grave apprehension that the ill treatment whieh they have received at the hands of the white may inflame their passions and cause them to terrorize the settlements for months to come. ,•

It is very Improper, however, to refer to the recent trouble as an Indian outbreak. It was so reported in the first place, but later information has left no doubt that tho whites were wholly In the wrong. It was the lawless cowboys, and not the Indians, who made the troublei It appears that none of the Utes on the reservation went to Colorow's assistance until he had been attacked, and then only to aid in the protection of his property and his people.

The case is one of the most flagrant examples of white injustice to the Indians, and the authors of it ought to be punished to the full extent of the national authority. If the Indians are ever to be civilized it will have to be accomplished by according them fair and just treatment and proving by our acts the sincerity of our professions.

WILL THERE BE A PANIC* The last few years have been prosperous ones for this country and to the ordinary mind there would not seem to be any cause for alarm in the future. But there are not wanting those who indulge serious apprehensions as to what may happen. The views of this class have been thus briofly summarized by tho

Chicago Tribune: "An enormous amount of railroad bulldlnir has been In progress In the lost two yeare, w&chncMV^hows & rapidd^re^.A real estate speculation the like JJf whICh has never before been Been inj carried nrices unreasonably high, but is now sfackenfng Us pace.

These may be characterised as "bear arguments. There is force in some of them and very little in others. It is altogether probable that there will bo a reaction in railroad building and real estate speculation. Farm products are low but they have been low for several years past. The com crop is certainly not small. It will show some shortage over laSt year but It will be enormous still. And in the South it to larger than ever before and probably sufficient to supply the needs of that section of the country. The cattle business on the plains has suffered severely, but that is very small factor hi the industry of the country and even as to that the reports are exceedingly contradictory. Dullness in the New York stock market and the failure of speculators are poor Arguments to prove anything except that swindlers fail at all times and that the people are getting sharp enough to keep out of Wall street.

There does not seem to beany occasion for a panic in this country at the present time. There may be a slackening In the rate of piogress. That is to be ex pected at times. There are eddies in every current. But on the whole the prosperity of the country appears to rest on a substantial basis and seems likely to continue.

Minneapolis Times: St* John has been compelled to reduce his price. He charges only $50 each for his speeches now. He has not yet made public the price of his "influence."

Boston Traveller: "Woodon bridges must go" is the demand of many of our exchanges. It is perhaps in order to remark that recent events afford evidence that sooner or later they do "go."

Chicago Times: It looks as if the In-ter-State Commerce bill ought to be amended in ways that will render railroad travel more safe, bv punishing the cupidity, recklessness and negligeuce of railroad companies

Chicago Journal: The trouble with the "Anti-poverty" Society is, that it proposes to make as many men poor, by stealing from them what they have got, as are to be made rich by giving them the stolen property.

Hudson Register: If the worst reports of his financial condition be true, Henry S. Ives might repeat the boast of the wandering minstrel, who said he was holding his own in California. He wont there broke and he was wasstill broke.

Jamestown Journal: It Is a pity in a republic like ours to separate children into sect schools. Much better that they should grow up and mingle in youth, as they will be obliged to in business life. The antagonism of classes, which is ever a dangerous element in a free government, lias an effective antidote in the mingling of youth in the common school.

Every one needs a bath at times, and every human habitation should contain something for a complete Immersion in water, and, since oonveniont and efficient portable baths at comparatively low figures are now extensively advertised for sale, thery is little excuse for most people to be without this priceless benefit. Iu the long catalogue of diseases to which flesh is heir, scarcely one can be named in this treatment of which a bath is uselelks. To those blessed with good health, a bath, as a common-sense appliance, gives thrift and growth to healthy functions, a brightness and delightful serenity, a clearness of mind and buoyancy of spirit. It is certainly a blessing to both mind and body, For tho mental worker, It Is a nerve tonic. A thorough application of water of proper temperature will calm and give strength and tone to his whole system. The indoor laborer, who gets but a scanty supply of fresh air, needs a bath to obtain tho skin invigorating elements of the open air.
