llt : 'F.4 : , 'r 1 kt ' h i t 1 1 Sincerest Flattery. Republicans Copying What The Denounced Formerly When It .W$ Advocated the Democrats. by (Editorial Id Louisville Coulrer-Jour-nal.) The Introduction of the Republican national platform of 1606 will make strauge reading for posterity, If tbe present administration continues In the way that It has begun. A com parison of the work of tbe present administration wltb that of tbe last will show, In a general way, that the present has bestowed on preceding itint. allien ro.L form of flattery, or rather compliment. Imitation. The writer of the Republican plat fnrtn nf lsoo must have had some training as a writer of clrco ads At least at the beginning he turned him self Ioc In the style hleh character izes that uuhiue sort of composition Referring to the fact thut for Hie first time since the civil war the American people had been under full Democratic control, Jt said that It had been "a record of unparalled incapacity, dis honor and dlater" Among the specifications were that It had "en tailed an unceasing d-llcit." and that it had involved, "dishonor abroad," and other eharges of the sauie sort. It Is a notable example how the whlrllglgof time brines Its revenger that the Republicans Mncc the 4tu of March last have Intimated the policy which they denounced In the presidential campaign. In passing the tariff they could not, to be sure, be accused of following a Democratic precedent. But let It be observed that what they denounced In reference to the tariff of 1891 was that It was followed by an "unceasing deficit." Now their own tariff of 1897 has been followed by precisely the same result, and the deficit Is larger, for the time It lias been In operation, than it was under the 30-calied Democratic tariff. Bcsldcs.thc Democrats can plead that a large revenue clement of their tariff was annulled by the supreme jcourt, a circumstance which 'lias no parallel under the Dingley bill. So If It be conceded that a deficit of revenue was one of the features of the last admin istration, it must be owned that the present administration has Imitated It, and In fact gone bcyoud It. The difference Is that the deficit under the Wilson bill was accidental aud unforsccn; that under the Dingley bill waspredlctcl by Republicans or the highest standing In the party, and was made for the distinct pur. pose of checking Importations. The matter of "dishonor ubroad" was an expression of the old conten tion of Rlpublicans that theirs Is the only party In tills country capable of a "vigorous foreign policy." Wo nil distinctly remember the howls that came" from Republican senators, the Republican press and Republican orators as to the attitude of the Cleveland administration taward Spain wus mercilessly de nounced. It was upon that policy that was largely based the charge of the platform that a Democratic administration had been guilty of "dishonor abroad." Yet tho present administration has followed In the footsteps of the last, but with a more uncertain step. Without criticising the policy of (this administration, It uiUbt be Bald that It Is fur less "vigor uus" In the feetibc that that word has been used by Republicans than that of the last. It Is an Imitation of tho Cleveland policy of peace, but far feebler. Thero are other rcspecti In which the present administration has fol lowed Its Democratic predecessor. It has recommended tho continuance of the Usuo of bonds when necessary to replenish the gold reserve, though iW platform denounced the last ad tnliilt'Mtratlon for doing this. It lias advocated the retirement of tho greenbacks, us Mr. Carlisle did. It lias advocated tho Usuo of gold bonds as the last admlnlftratlon did. In short, It has In tho main followed tho financial and foreign policy of the last administration, In splto of tho declaration of the platform that It caused "disaster at borne, dishonor abroad." There bas been one conspicuous ex ception to this imitation, and that relates -to Hawaii, When inaugur ated Mr. McKlnley declared himself opposed to "territorial aggression," but somehow soon got converted to the annexation of Hawaii. In this he does not follow (be Republican plat form of 16&C, which simply said- that tbe Hawaiian Islands should be con trolled by tbe United States and that no foreign power should be permitted to interfere with them, which stops short of annexation. But even bere we find the Republican party not at one, as was clearly shown by toe speech of Representative Jobnon, of Indiana, on Washington's birthday. Xotoniy did Mr. Johnson oppose an nexation, but he said be bad now come to believe, though he did not be lieve nnder the Cleveland administra tion, that tbe revolution was aided by .American citizens he should have siid American sailors. Here Mr. Jotm.on again follows In the track of tbe Democratic admlnlstratlon.whlch proved beyond all question that It wa United States naval forces that turned Hawaii orerto Dole and other degenerate sons of Yankee mis sionaries. That there fare a great many other Republicans that believe the same thing can not be doubted, although they spent four years de nouncing the refusal of the Democrats to annex Hawaii. It -seems rather curious that the Republicans should so closely Imi tate what they lately denounced. but they had better make the Imita- i ion complete by voting 3galnst the annexation of the lepers.

That Mr RIgdon Is popularamong ladies and tbatthere was not a little rivalry among that sex as to who should have the pleas ure of eating supper .with the genial auctioneer, was evidenced by the fact tbat tbe basket containing his name sold for S1.75,the highest price realized from any of the other baskets. The ladles did tbe bidding on the baskets exclusively, while the gentleman whoe name was found within the basket willingly paid the price for which It was sold. When the sale of baskets had been concluded and the gentlemen bad found their partners. the members of the party proceeded to a discussion of the contents of their Individual baskets, While the supper was being partaken of, Misses Mattie and Louise Soutbwlck favored the assembly with a delightful vocal duett, and Basil H. Wagner was heard in a number of rN best recitations eacli of which as very credltablv rendered.

MM OFHARTFORD. CELERY COMPOU ever so sturdy, finds often that the continued pressure of affairs has caused the nerves to remonstrate and fall in tone. At such a lime Palne's celery compound becomes of value. Having experienced Its benefit. I 1 gladly commend It. j MILES B. PRESTON. j The skin and the eyes are two good thermometers of health. If the skin has spots, eruptions, an unhealthy pallor or a yellow appearance, and the eyes a glazed look, with yellowish whites, It Is high time to purify the blood and regulate the liver and kid neys. Palne's celery compound makes bright red blood and relieves the liver and kidneys of the strain that is brought upon them whenever Impure blood is constantly pouring though their substance. There is every mason in the world why Palne's celery compound should build up sickly people, Increase their appetites and nourish every tissue in their body. As even children are aware, there is blood all over the body. It Is this blood which builds up the tissues that have been worn out.
