"3rantituflri)f his eight years of almost ab
, ' . . solute monarcliial rulc.could not,or at least

that race unfortunately given the right of

' and not be led by a string whilst tlie chiv
alrous Jngalls griids his hand organ, lie
will let the negro question severely alone

. recommend and secure legislation that will
' make taxes general and not special ; ex
. , pcnditurcsTrugal, not wasteful, and at all
n:-. .hazards have local self-government main
. taincd. The questions to-day dividing the
... two great parties arc practical ; they relate
to conduct and course of government. The
attitude of either party toward any question
of the day is determined from the theories
. which they have held from the beginning.
; ; We confidently expect to see the republican
' party break down in its attempt to govern
the country. It Is still a war party. .It Is
not for National uses or for a state of peace.
Its cohesive principle is a system of legal
ized robbery and jobbery ,born of war.which
. appeals to organized capital, and the pledge
of a system of agrarian pillage, given to an
' army of camp followcr,with whom it pro
poses to disgrace the American soldiers
roll of honor, the pension list.
Such Is, In truth, the republican party,
and whatever it attempts that is in variance J
with the constitution and the rights of
states and mankind under It will be met by
the honest democrats of the East, West,
North and South, who shall settle the ene
my's fale when the time rolls round for
voting again. Let us therefore be patient.
Notice well every movement cf the enemy.
Do not allow him to flank us, and now as
the new year Is well nigh upon us let us
resolve to do our duty toward our erring
brethren by explaining to them just what
democracy Is and what It will do on'Its re
turn to power J - May every reader of the

A correspondent writes to inquire if there
IS as much Wool produced In the United
States as is consumed by the people of tlie
united states. ; 1 lie people of the L nited
States consume about 600 millions pounds
of wovl annually. The amount produced
1 vear m tnis countrv was 2io millions
pounds. The amount of raw wool import
ed was 114 million pounus. There were
imported in manufactured goods about 206
millions pounds. Thus it appears that more
than half the wool used in this country is
imported,
