The negro, In every aspect of his politi cal existence, has been the bane ot the Republican party. He flocks by the hun dred to national conventions, where he exacts the most distinguished considera tion, and where he Invariably offers him self and Is bought, sold and delivered in Job lots to suit the means and con venience of purchasers In behalf ot can didates who have money. Of course, at these conventions, being Republican gatherings, his vote Is always counted, and he exercises as much Individual suf frage Influence in the selection of candi dates as any white man In the party. As a result ot this condition. It not un freo.uent!y happens that the candidate nominated Is one who la not wanted or deemed, for Impersonal reason, expedi ent by a majority ot the white delegates. It was thus with Harrison at Minne apolis: who, while almost as great and quite as good a man as ever filled the presidential chair, was, owing to peculiar factious disturbances In the party, never theless, opposed by nearly two-thirds or the white delegates In the convention. Tet Mr. Harrison was renominated, and It violates no secret now to say bis nomi nation was directly due to the use ot money without his concurrence, ot course among Southern negro delegates by federal office holders who knew that - their only nope of retaining their posi tions lay Id their chiefs renoml nation. The result, as every politician knows, was the election of Mr. Clevelaud and a Democratic congress, with the immedi ate Inauguration of the most ruinous business and industrial era ever expert enced In the history of the country. These same mercenary and ungrateful negroes. after thus throwing down and hastening the mortal end ot their great benefactor, Blaine, returned to toe South and soht sut again, or allowed their votes to be counted, which is the same thing, for Cleveland electors and free trade con gressmen. It will be so again, at and after the convention in St. Louis. It is a noto rious fact that many of the negroes who are on their way to the St. Louis meeting and who may be there used to thwart the patriotic plans of the best leaden ot the Republican party, carried torches in Democratic free trade processions four years ago, ard the votes of every moth er's son of them were then and will be again counted this fall for Democratic r Populist free silver candidates. Something roust be done to rid the great Republican party of this nuisance and embarrassment. The negro votes count nothing for us. while our supposed affiliation, with them alienates the support of thousands of Southern white men who are naturally inclined to believe In the principles and support the candidates ot our party. Like Slr.bad's old man ot the sea, we have got the negro fastened upon us, and while laboring under the odium and burden of carrying him the Democrats receive all the political bene fits resulting from his numerical strength and the mistake of his enfranchisement. AN EASTERN VIEW OF THE ORE GON ELECTION. The Philadelphia Times sas: The state election held in Oregon on Monday gives the first Indication of the trend of public sentiment In the national contest of 1KS5. True, Rhode Island Voted in April, but there was practically no contest In the state, as the success ot the Republican ticket was conceded, and It was chosen substantially by default; but Oregon will be taken as the finger board of public sentiment in the West, and the result Is anything but encourag ing. The painful feature of the Oregon re turns is in the fact that no considerable sound money party appears to exist in that state at all. Ex-Governor Pen noyer, a blatant free sliver demagogue who was twice elected governor as a Democrat with free silver variations, was elected mayor of Portland city, and while the Republicans have elected one con gressman, he is of the free silver per suasion, although opposed by a Populist who ran him close in the race. In the other district it is nip and tuck between the regular Republican and avowed free sllverite and the regular Populist can didate. Thus whether the Republicans or Popu lists have succeeded In Oregon the result is substantially the same so far as any principle is concerned. Every Repub lican candidate for congress, and for most other offices, is a free sllverite, and the Democrats seem to be entirely ab sorbed in the Populists. In the Second congressional district there Is a silver lining to the cloud by the Republicans presenting a sound money candidate, even though he is third in the race. The Republican majorities in Oregon are largely reduced, and it la possible they have lost one congressman, but It is not a matter of public moment, Inasmuch as between the Republican candidate who may be defeated, and the Populist who may be elected, there is only the shadow of difference without the substance. The state seems to be tcmpest-swopl by the cheap money erase, and It Oregon la to be taken as foreshadowing public senti ment on the Pacific dSnst, there can be little exacted from any of In Rooky Moutaln or Pacific slate In favor ot maintaining a sound financial system and public and private credit. NO ISK FOR PAJAMAS. A Chicago Woman- Hood Story About the Deaf Old Gentleman. Mr. and Mrs. Robert H. Wiles were In the city together the other night, and attended a social gatherum at the home of Mr. Lydia Avery Ooonley, away up on the 1-ake Shore Drive, a the Chi cago Evening lvt. Mrs. Ooonley want ed something lively In the way of enter tainment, so she. called on Mr. W iles, as suring the guests that he wa one of the best story tellers In the country. And they all clamored for a tale. 'That. Isn't the way to tell stories" ld Mr. Wiles gelling on his feet. The right way la to sit around In a crowd, this way. ami then have one tell a story, and let that remind the other ot stories, and let them ito on till they gel tired. l!y the way It remind me of " Ami then be went on, and the people were mlw-htlly entertained. A he con cluded Mrs. Cuonley rose and said Mr. Wiles' plan was a good one. As he talk ed she was reminded ot a story, and now she would tell It: and she hoped when she had conolud.-d other guests would follow her example. Then she told this story: "A very pretty young lady was assign ed to a rather old and very deaf man at a dinner party, and she could do nothing to entertain him. One can't think ot many things when one's force 1 all ex pended In lung power. Hut at length she glanced at the table and saw the fruit. It didn't suggest much, but any thing was a help. " 'Do you like bananas " "How?" he Inquired, bending a hand about his ear. " 'Do you like bananas?" a little louder. He was pained. He knew sne was a nice gtrl and he wished he could hear her, but he could not. So he sold 'Which? This time she shouted: " "Do you like bananas?" "She didn't really care a cent whether he did or not: but she wa a determined woman, and she wa bound he should not defeate her. He looked at h.T a moment, then his eyes lighted and a smile broke over his face. " 'No,' he said, '1 don't like them, prefer the old-fashioned nightdress.' MRS. HARRIET REECHER STOWK. "Trust In the Lord, and Do tlood." Her Favorite Motto. Is Forty-five years ago It was that Hurr Beecher Stowe wrote her great slave epic, "Uncle Tom's Cabin," and she was then a mature woman of 40. The book appeared first as a serial In "The Na tional Era.' ot Washington, running from June, 1SS1. to April. INS. For the serial rights she received ', what seem ed to her then a good round sum. When the story was given book form In the same year, the sale was phenomenal, and the result Is a part ot I'nlttd states hi. tory. Three thousand copies went oft the first day: the second edition the next week: a thin within a month, and lr editions within the year over JuO.ouu copies. The shy, retiring wife of the country professor, familiar with all the exigencies of small means, found her royalties In the short space ot four months yielding her I10.0U). But It must not be forgotten. In the overwhelming dominance of "Cncle Tom," that Mrs. Stowe has written other powerful and charming novels. Mrs. Stowe can rest from her labors In the comfort ing sense of the beneficent use of a great gift. Throughout her long life her favorite motto, often spoken ana written, and deeply felt, has been: "Trust In the Lord, and do good." The passing of such a life when the hour comes, a life so long spared, can have little of sorrow. Most of her kin, the majority of her friends, and all her liter ary contemporaries have gone. Father, mother, husband, several children, count less folk In this and other lands who were Intimates In more active years, and the great New England literary group with whom she Is naturally to be associ atedLongfellow. Emerson, Whlttler, Lowell, and, finally, her good frit nil. Dr. Holmes, the "last leaf upon the tree" all these and others yet await her. One feels that whether here, tenderly cared for by her own. or there, with the com panions of her main strength and mighti est work, all Is well with America's fore most and beloved woman of letters. RICHARD BURTON. THE FABLED GIANT. ATLAS, Was said to have supported the world upon his shoulders. If so, he must have been a decidedly muscular Individual. We can't all be museular, but we can enjoy a fair modicum of physical vigor If, when that blessing Is denied us by nature, we supplement her deficit by an appeal to the national tonic, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which reinstates di gestion upon a permanent basis, reme dies nervousness, biliousness and consti pation, and overcomes rheumatic ana kidney troubles. It also counteracts the poison of malaria in air or water, and recruits exhausted energy when impaired by unusual bodily or mental fatigue. The aged, infirm and convalescent have no more potent and thorough helper than this Justly popular invlgorant, with a successful record of nearly half a cen tury. THE DREADED MICROBE. Exchange.

I have hopes. We all know that any tired muscle can be restored by rest. Your stomach Is a muscte. Dyspepsia Is Its manner of say ing, "I am tired. Give me a rest." To rest the Btomach you must do its work outside of the body. This is the Shaker's method of curing Indigestion, and Its success Is best at tested by the fact that these people are practically free from what is without doubt the most prevalent of all diseases. The Shaker Digestive Cordial not only contain digested food which Is properly absorbed without taxing the tired diges tive organs, but It Is likewise an aid to the digestion of other fowls In the stom ach.
