Democratic magnanimity was strongly

senator asked for an amendment to the

oilier lines of expenditure the outlay is a gener
ous one. There i no inspiration in the home
where everything is relegated to the merely
aesthetic plane; where all sorts and ccnuilions
of strange jugs and bopls and ginger jnr, with
Hill stranger decorations, arc seen, and where
everything is smothered in lace sod tied up in

beauty either, in this scheme of decorative

Then wat a wide and animated discussion,
)crs ago, regarding (he best 100 books
in the world, and every man an'! woman of
literary prominence wat appealed lo for an in
dividual list. While these lists varied, there
were always a few works, at the Bible and
Shakcipeare, which must, of necessity, ippear
in each one, and as a fairly representative
example of the permanent literature of the
work! these lists were root interesting. Tbey
establish one most important truth; (hat a
working library, a living library, to to speak,
need nut be numerically large. A hundred
well selected books offer to the home a contin
ual fountain of refreshment and of higher
thought. Such a collection, well selected. It,
of itself, enough to place life on a higher plane,
and to predetermine the thought of the house
hold to finer lines of interest.

were the circumstances? The democrats mnJe
no contest al all, either on the state or con

nor so ffiViit made by tbe national democratic

ia faet the real cause of the large republican
majority it found in-the fact that thousands of
democrat of temperance sentiments staid away
and refused to go to the poll because lhc
democratic state convention put a plank
their platlut m in favor of ;be repeal of lire prohi
bi;ory law. The republican vote it fr below

Tne wild schemes listened to by o many
Western fanners, who are generally reasonable
men and the unwise threats tbey make, prove
at least that tbey are dissatisfied profoundly
with the present ttate of things, and that they
are determined there shall be a change. They
are suffering, and they clamor for relief. Will
not they be exasperated rather than pacified
by a change which shall make things won
than they are and force them to pay mor
for clothing, tin ware, hardware, chim.cutlery
etc., without putting aa additional cent
their pockets lo meet these heavier expenses?
If Alliance resolutions are violent now, what

Mr McKinley told the Maine people that his

his workmen one dime of the bounty which the
