Even the Republicans cannot blame them for despairing. The death blow has befallen them and they must sink into darkness- Many will cherish fond recollections of the little band of people and will censure President Cleveland for the down fall of the organization. VVe hare Democratic friends who will— shake on the good tidings. Some time during the present administration word was sent to Jas. W. Eves of Millville, Columbi-i Co., the' 'lis pension was suspended. A left days ago another notice came to one of the Justices of the Peace that James W.

There is some thtng certainly wrong in the loose manner in which the government handles the pension business at the present time. Trees nre felled by electricity in the great forests of Galicia. For cutting comparatively soft woods, the tool is in the form of an auger, which is mounted on a carriage, and is moved to and fro and revolved at the same time by a small electric motor. As the cut deepens wedges are inserted to prevent the rift from eloping, and when the tree is nearly cut through, an axe or a hand-saw is used to finish the work. In this wsy trees are felled very rapidly and with very little labor. The W. & .N. B. R. R. Company have six engines now, and they are kept busy continually.

A Democratic Paper Leave* That Party Because the Party Haa Brought Bala oa the Coaatry. One of the ablest papers which has left the Democratic party this year ia the Holyoke Free Preaa, published in the once lively Massachusits town of Holyoke. That enterprising place is not as prosperioua now, and the Free Press finds the reason in the Democratic victory last year. In explaining its change of politics the Free Press says plainly that it '"has lost faith in the Democratic party, and that it firmly believes that the present industrial stagnation, finan cial stringency and general distress existing throughout the land is the result of Democratic supremacy." In further explanation it Bays : "One year ago this country was enjoying a prosperity such as had never existed before. There was not one idle mill in Massncliusets. In this city there was not a water wheel that was not turning, not a spindle idle, not a loom that did not send its pleasing hum out on the breeze, not a paper machine that stopped from Monday morning till Saturday night at midnight. All was life and activity in this, the greatest paper producing city in the world. And this condition of affairs existed from sea to sea and from the Canadian line to Mexico. The whole world looked on and wondered at such prosperity. Such was the con dition of affairs one pear ago. "The Democratic party has now had übsolute control of the affairs of the nation for seven months, and the result is the most sorrowful time the nation ever saw—business paralized, industries shut down, wages cut down,a financial panic, such a string ency in the money market that bank after bank, business house after busi ; ncss house has had to close their doors, hundreds of thousands out of work. A year ago every mill in this city was rushed with orders. They could not produce fast enough for the demand. Today there is scarce ly a mill in the city that is running full time, and of tl}e large mi{)i there Is but onp that h&t not gone on half time or cut wages 10 per cent or more. An awful change for a year I ' This frightful condition of affairs appeals thoroughly to the American citizen, who has a powerful weapon in his hand—the ballot. It was the ballot that brought about this great change from prosperity to poverty, from industrial activity to industrial stagnation, from financial ascendency to financial depression. The pres ent industrial stagnation is without any doubt the result of the free trade plank that was inserted in the Dem ocratic national platform of 1892. That platform denounced the pro tective tariff policy under which the nation has grown and developed from a child to a giant,and declared that if the people intrusted the office* of tjip nation in Its hands it would wipo out every trace of that policy." Our people tender Mr. Ilallnrd much sympathy for the loss by fire of his wagon shop and contents on Thursday morning, of last week. Mr. Ballard thinks the fire originat ed from a piece of paper catching on fire that hung over the stovo pipe in the 2d story of the building. 11c had b jilt a fire in the stove and was returning to his house when he ob served smoke oozing from the build ing. The alarm WHS given *nd he returned in hopes of extinguishing the flames. This he found utterly impossible as the Are kindled by oils used in this department (or paiutiug had given tho flames such a start thai it was beyond controle. Hy this time a large HUiaber of oltlacus had come to the rescue, and at once begtiu moving the contents of the building to a sale place on tU* oppo site side of tbu street. Hut a small portiou of the contents were salved, however, owing ly thu tjuick collapse of the building. Three new wagons, a pair of sleighs, tools, lumber, spokes and lots of other valuables usually kept iu a tint, class carriage shop were uo|)«UlUt)d ii) the lire, to gether with the building sinouutiiiu to a loss to Mr. Mallard in the neigh borhood of •'i ,Ui)M with no insurance.
