The unieakHlle 4 Willie" Iirecken
tidge has taken the stump in Kentucky
for the Democratic; party. Poor De
mocracy: will nothing remove from its
shoulder this unsavory old monster.
Aktek fourmotilhsof idleness, spent
principally in fishing, Mr. Clevelaud
lias returned to Washington. In a
couple of months he "will have Con
gress on his hands" and he will need
all his renewed strength and vigor to
wrestle with it.
Am:nt the oft rvjK'iiU-d assertion of
our IVmvralio eonteniporanes thht
the Wilson taritr law is approved ly a
large majority of the K'ple, is the fact
that in the House th:t tiassid that hill
there were 217 Ia-mocraLs and there
will U ltiT lk'iiiocrats: in the House
that meets in iVeeiuU-r next. Why
is this thus?
The Washington 7W is trying to
find out what are Cleveland's chances
for a third term.
So far thirteen Ik-inocratio Congress
men say they "see no objection to a
third term," and twei.ty-live say "no.
never." If this average keejis up
throughout the list, the jig is up for
I Ire' r Cleveland, and a new caudidatc
inust U hunted up.
TncKEis a lovely p ;!ilital mix iu
I he city tf New York, and the Igd'ot
w hen priutetl will lie larger than onc
lialf of this journal and with all the
tickets on it will resemble a crazy
ijtiilt. There are four different kinds
of iK-moi-nits and three dit'ercnt kind
of Kepi thl ieans in New York City, and
the Tammany Tiger has a fair chance
to nia'.ve ofT with the ssi!s.
The Supreme Vtrt lias decided that
the voter at the coming election can
vote for hut six candidates for the Su
erior Court. This settles the question
and w ill prevent trouMe, as it was etin
tendeil hy sonie ahle lawyers that the
entire seven could la." voted for liy each
vi iu r.
t iiairuiau iu:.ty had a test case made
and the Supreme Court has settled the
imtroversy. The ticket will there
for contain the names of six candi
dales onlv.
Skntoi: Way says that the eam
jiaigu is apathetic on Uith sides exwpt
where there is a lively contest on the
1im-:;1 ticket, but the apathy is much
more marked on the iK-nuHTaticside of
thetiou-e than on the lU-publicansidc.
this account he laks for a large Ile-piibli-an
niaiority. The majority this
year should lie as large as last year, at
lti-t. Let cverv Republican voter go to
the polls and we can again jxiint with
pride to Uie old Keystone State.

expression of this thing necessarily ex
clude other things not expressed? As
the same reason for the plan exists for

not a necessary deduction that a plan
like that expressed should lie followed?
Ioes not the whole spirit of the constitu

word indicating that such plan as to other

specified the constitution is mandatory;
it says to the legislature in thus enumer
