The Legislature has been stirred up, and has taken the initiative n a movement designed to secure the exhibition on an extensive and elaborate | scale at the World's Fair of methods of | road muking and samples of road-mak- | ing machinery. Good roads are a necessity of civilization, provision for | which has been sadly neglected in this country. - THERE is no doubt but that Presi. dent Harrison's nomination was better for the republican party than Blaine’s could have been. Blaine's course tow ard Harrison was not dignified, neither was it becoming his high rank and po litical position. Many of the best re. | publicans in this town expressed them. selves in that way and the same senti. ment was prevalent throughout the | country. Blaine was the choice of the party, but his last position as a candi. date did not merit any support It pays to be honorable in politics as well | a8 in other matters, na - Tne democratic delegates from this district, to the democratic national convention, at Chicago, next week, have but one distinct duty to perform and that is to carry out the wishes of thelr constituency in the selection of a presi. dential ticket, From close observation for months past, it is not a mistake to | say the democratic masses are over. | whelming in the majority for Cleveland. They are clamoring for his re-nomina. | tion. Every means possible should be employed by them to accomplish this result, Give the party Cleveland and some western man and the people will give us a great victory in November, ME REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE Mr. Har first ball 4 should be Mr. Han ory than Mr He favors su for party purp« Harrison use of the pension list more § ses a8 Raum has made hose who desire such use of the Gov. ernment’s bounty will be than satisfied with his n He the worse than war taxes more nit e of approves MAaInlenand in time of peace for the sake of turning the earnings of the many into the coffers of the favored fevr. to of the trusts and monopolies made per t Those who desire see the rule manent will rejoice in his renomination as a step in that direction. Mr. Harrison is a much better repre. sentative of his party's ideas than Mr. Blaine would have been. It was Mr. Blaine and not he who at the critical moment thrust a reciprocity contradic. tion into the McKinley bill with the candid declaration that the measure as framed at the dictation of the fat-friers did not make a market for a single ad. ditional barrel of pork or bushel of wheat, How strong a candidate he will be we must wait and see. But it is upon record that a number of the most expe rienced and sagacious politicians of his own party have openly declared that he cannot be elected, while it Is in evidence that several of the most powerful of republican party bosses will not desire his election, after their failure to secure for the of the office-holder delegates, Mr. Blaine has friends of staunch loyalty and long memories, and the issue between him and the President has left them resentful in an unusual degree, More important still, the people have given thelr verdict once and may be trusted to give it again in oon. | demnation of all means--Force.bill legislation, the squan. | dering of the people's substance, the un. necessary burdoning of poverty with taxes, the prostitution of the publie service to partisan ends, the rewarding of corruption, the protection of rascal. ity, the building up of a privileged class ol Tumed Knight the nomination | | Mr. Harrison has captured by the aid American | that this nomination | abu " ieh- lative favoritism and the by leg the tax-laying power for the e ment of monopoly at the expense o Il accept the no to al questions of present 1 brings in OpPPOIe nt rd of mm their the re N.Y.

I —— SINCE the republicans have nominat has sentiment aroused for party. Sentiment and enthusiasm don't always win. Haucock's campaign was one of excessive enthusiasm-—but he | was defeated. When Blaine was nom. inated in 1884 against Cleveland, repub. licans went wild—but Cleveland got the voles. Cleveland's renomination in the national demoeratic convention, in "88 ed Harnson and Reid there been very little was a wonderful demonstration by the | party for their favorite candidate—but he fell short at the November election. These examples of popularity, sentiment and enthusiasm show that they are not the ruling factors in polities, The | brass band, don't win There always, is entirely too much of it in our political methods, | Let us have a decent, respectable eam. | paign this year, and leave out the monk. ey business of former years. .——— Faummer Salts Some of the nobbiest and dressiest | summer suits worn this season are being sold by the Philad.
