She s3wit Whatever irresponsible tcribblert may tn sinuate, the Democrat i in favor ol bridge Of course, Wsslilngton couldn't lie. Cut he never had hit farm UiJ out Into town lots. It ia difficult for a drinking man to' hplJ hit breath; It it generally too strong lor him. The world it full gf people who enjoy teeing tin pan tied to the tail of tome other mu', dog. The winning man In th next presiden tial race will stand on thla platform Icaa for the public treaturjr and more for the private purse. t--JJ L.JLB Senator Hoar ia frequently taken Ix a nuniiter of the gospel. It ia perhr.s neediest to say that thb ia done only by people who do not know him. To multitude of people there is bitter irony in the recommendation to uat warm woolen clothing as a preventive of grip wiia the aver age tax on woolens nised to the neighborhood of loo per ceut by the McKinley tarUT. The Washington lst wants to know whether DayU B llltl would let go of hla governorship and hla aenatorahtp to selie the presidency. The Pint ought not to attempt David so recklessly. Great Britain's debt la four t'.mee it large as that of the United States. If Foster's financial views are valid Great Britain ought to be thankful. When Farmer Ingalls begins to pluck the festive bugs from his potato vines he will have the melancholy satisfaction of reflecting that there Is no material differ ence bteween his potato crop and the pol itical part which he has but recently parted. The statement that Von Molike wat universally beloved by Germane Is strong ly contradicted by the statement that 516 original poems were sent to hitn upon his nineteenth birthday last fall. When tha farmers of thecouniry res J the provisions of the new Spanish treaty tbey will te puzzled lo understand how they "are in it.' They can set where manufacturers of machin ery cxne in, and where alto the Standard Oil octopus Is to be benefitted. But as lo fiim products they will searc t the treaty in vain, and thea will be asked to glorify Mr Ulaine for his teal in fostering policy that shall make larger markets for farm products. It is intimated at Washington that Justices Bradlev and Field of the United States Su preme court will resign next fall U they do Froident llarrUoa will have two more im portant judicial positions to fill, aad if he has not been misrepresented be will make those appointments subservient to Lis ambition for a rcnomiaation, lie will not, therefore, as guessed, appoint Senator Edmunds of Vermont to the bench. Senator Edmunds hat contempt fir James G Blaine and would not be a ser viceable cog in the Elaine Harrison roach'oe. Moreover, if '.he reason given by the Vermont senator h r resigning his seat in the icnate be valid be cannot reside ia Washington. "Over too toots and processes which are marvels of Ingenuity and scientific knowl edge," sa rt the Rochester (S W) Demo crat, "have been Invented by safe burglars. A recent burglar's outfit, captured by the police, consisted of a little g!ant knob breaker, a diamond drill a id a high explo alve of the nature of dynamite, but put up In the form of a powder. It would open the strongest bank safe In a half-hour, and without noise enough to disturb people in the next house, while the entire outfit could be carried In the pockets of an ordi nary coat." The young men who are giving fresh .vitality to the democratic party in all the stales speak the language of sincerity. They are not old enough to get tariff ideas from Pennsylvania mill-owner and hta on appropriations from log-rolling special interests. There is to them no eloquence In vindicating prohibitive tariffs for the benefit 'of rich manufacturers, and Billion Congresses for the benefit of the minori ties who "stand in." The young men have not had t ine to distort their tense of justice or to spoil their lessons upon the functions of government. Toey cannot yet agree that politics must be conducted with falsehood, bribery and subsidized newspapers. It Is strange thst the rra of prosperity which ihe McKinley bill was to Inaugu rate for worklngmen should be opened with bitter conflicts between employers and employees. Mr McKinley and his friends certainly.sitld that the bill would enable employers In protected industries to make greater profits, and thus enable them to give better wag?a to their men. (las it fai'rd to enable the protected employers to make (jiealer'profiu, or have they failed to take advantage of the opportunity Ihelr Increased profits afford to pay better wages? Can It be possible that, despite the magnanimity of Ihe government, em ployers tnnUt upon paying their workmen no more than they are compelled to pay under the law of competition?

From ,ll accounts David B Hill It very much dissatisfied regarding hit pres ent political situation. Mr 11111 tried to ptay a very fine game when he accepted the tenatorthip, but things did not work hit way and he It very much put out about It. At the ttory oes Mill only wanted the tenatorthip for the prestige It would give him In a national way snd had no Intention ol ever qualifying, lie fully expected that Harrison would call an extra session ot the senate lo confirm his judical nominations, and then Hill Intended to resign and per mtt the present legislature ot New York to elect Smith M Weed to the senate. Much to HiU't disgust, however, he dis covered within a week after the adjourn ment ot congress on the 4th of March.that Uarrison did not Intend lo call an extra tetslon ot the senate and then, to ute Hill's own classic phrase, he found him self In a hole. Hit Idea wat to resign the senatorshlp and run for a third terra as governor. The failure ot Harrison to call an extra session ct the senate deprived Ui'.I ot his opportunity of resigning the tenator thip. This cutt him off from running for a third term for governor, at the next leg islature ot New Vork may have a repub lican majority and Hill dare not face the country by declining to go to the senate and make room for a republican. 1 1 U I f eel t w hen he su r re nde rs the go ver nonhlp ot New York he will lose hit hold on the machine In that ttate; that he wtd be lot! tight ot in the senate, at there are teveral democrat! to muchf bigger than he it ihere.and by the time the national con vention meets next year that he will be nonenlty. He feelt reasonably certain that he hat tuck control ot the machine that If he desired another nomination tor gover nor he would get It, and that with a solid support of the tstpon and whiskey ele ments behind him he could be re-elected, but the senatorshlp It In hit way. He hat got It by the tall and he cannot let go. If he thould let go ot the tenatorthip th next legislature might be republican, and, of course, would elect a republican. Glv. big away a senatorshlp like this would forever damn Hill. The next' legislature ot New York will be democratic, but the convention to nominate the next governor ol New York will b held In the fall, long before the elections, and Hill, as a demo crat, cannot afford to run any chances ot giving the senatorshlp to the republicans. UKK I ALHK UUWMNO, Now that rll farm products are creeping upward In price, and the manufactured necessaries of life are becoming cheaper, our alliance friends are called upon to ex plain the situation but cannot. The alli ance was organized to give the farmer cheaper manufactured products and sell his own at a higher price. The object hat been fulfilled without any action on the part of the alliance. Who'has been keep ing prices down? Why have the organi sations of farmers had such an Influence on the markets? The question will not answer itself and until we see how per manent are the prices, we are not c'pable of answering with arty certainty. Wt! SiJe. This Is Intended to show that farmers are benefited by protectionism. The ar gument Is that increasing the duty on farm product has enable the farmer to ted hit products tr belter prices. At the same time It Is said that Increasing the duties on manufactured neceatarie of life enables tbe consumer to buy them cheaper. But the farmer Is no longer lo be deceived by such false reasoning. TlUSfGlRTAUirr. Isn't It a trifle rough Ut blame the repub licans and protectionists for the existence of the sugar trusts. In ylew of the fact that the McKinley bill has removed the duty from sugar and placed It upon the free list? S. F. Ckronitle. The trouble with the McKinley bill lies in the fact that McKinley saw fit lo dis criminate In favor of the sugar refinert of this country by putting raw sugar on the free list i.nd protecting refined sugar. This enables the re fineit ot this country to or ganize and maintain their trusts. -WOEUV."

The Dcmockat made none of these charges, and hence leaves Ibe Woodburn Independent, that did mike them to prove them or back down, But it not the Journal asking a good deal of the Demockat in view of the way it treated th Utter some lime go? It said, without the semblmce of a foundation upon which lo predicate such a remark, that the DEMOCRAT was trying lo discredit the alliance and sending forth Ihe inference that there was dissension. We showed then conclusively that it bad no reason for making such a statement and asked it lo publish our tenia!, hut it does tot appear that it hid Ibe fairness to do it. Will it roso now? The Dkmockat office lias a supply of sugar l-eet seed left with us lo bire in tbe hands of those f aimers who w ill make a test of growing beets in this valley. The purpose is to as certain whether beets may be thrown here sufficiently successfj to justify th establish ing of sugar making plants here. Those ds iring a small amount ol seed thould call at once. 'lb ere are two important questions in regard to national finances now. Is the government spending more money than it receives, and who it responsible for the Increaseed expenditures and reduced rev enues? The people of the country are studying these questions and no fluntmcrv of book-keeping can keep Ihem from find- trig the correct answers.

A warehouseman on the Wtllameltee Is making $300 a day the past month by advance oil wheat alone. Till It one ct the commercial facts of a republican ad ministration. There are not many men who ms.de much by advancet on grtln or anything else under the Cleveland admin istration. Thin will be an unpelalablo statement to democrats, but there Is noth ing unpalatable about the way farm pro- aucis generally nave advanced. It Is not wheat alone that hat gone up. That would be explained by il.ort erupt In France, India and Russia. But short crons do not explain the advance In oats, rom1 oaricy ana an along the line ol produce Meats have gone up and before the year It over wool will be ptettv apt to advance Sheep are advancing and the clip ot 1891 will be apt to feel the Imnulse. Feed on the great ranges hat run down and flocks win do more profitable. All along the line the farmer begins lo feci encouraged, Capital Journal, , Doe 1 the Journal undertake to tay that the advance In the pi Ice ot w heal ha re sulted at the effect of increasing the duty on that article from ao to 15 cents a bushel? It dare-not tay to. It would be Impossi ble to Increase the price of whiat by In. creasing the duty on Imported wheat. We already raise more wheat In thlt country than can be consumed here, hence the market for wheat It fixed tn Liverpool. Before McKinley Increased the duty on wheat ther were Imported but 1155V bashelt for the year ending June 30, 1SS9. So, all this gush about 'to commercial fact ot a republican admlnl.tratlon'1 la the sheerest tomfoolery. The farmer can not be protected on wheat bv any duty large or small. The tame may be said ot oats ot hlch for the year 1889 there were Imported but 11,314 bushels. The Increase ot the duty from 10 lo 13 centt per bushel had noth ing to do with the advance In Ihe pricft of oatt thlt tprlng. The tame I true ot corn. During the j ear 1889 there were Imported 3383 bushels ol corn. How could Increas ing the duty from 10 to 15 centt enable the producer to get a fairer price this year than last year. The truth U short crop Is the real cause of the advance In the price ot wheat,corn and oatt. The same It true ot meata. None of these articles are Im ported In any considerable quantity, he nee protection It Inoperative. !. . . . ... CUCKANUUA1.U The republican parly is fplcnJIdty or ganized for business, as a ptlltlal organi sation. It was able lo agree on a tariff bill and on a silver bill.

BISHOP BOWMAN EE.tTtS. Judge Schuylei ot Eastern Pennsylvania ha handed down the first legal opinion rendered In that ttate upon the Bishop Bowman trouble, which have shaken the Evangelical Association to it foundation for more than a year. At the East Pennsylvania conference, held in Allentown in February, Rev. William Wieand was appointed by Bishop Bowman to the Bangor church, which ap pointment was given to Rev George Gross by the an'.l-BowmanUe. The former re fused to give up tbe church records and suit waa Instituted to compel him to do so, the Issue turning on Ihe legality of his ap appointment. Judge Schuylet held that the Bowman conference was without legal authority and that In consequence It appointment were Illegal. He based this opinion on Ihe fact that the Bishop had been tried for immoral purposes by a lawfuilv constitu ted conference ia Chicago, and by that conference suspended. In those circum stance he was wholly unauthorized to make appointments, and at a result those he did make were null and void. The opinion closed with an t.rdr on Rev Wle and to yacate the paisonage and hrtnd over all record within twenty days. A feaasrlvaaia Fire. Oil City, Pa, May 10.
