the country prostrated by the failure of

Tae Democratic Galveston News proph-
esies the dissolution of its party. It says
the Democratic party can not long sub-
sist on the ruin it has wrought. The
Dallas News, also a Texas Democratic
paper, sizes up the situation in about the

er cannot long hold the barnyard by
crowing on the fence, and adds that the
party must come off the perch, stop its
foolishness and do something.
HARD times force many alleged busi-
ness men to hide their faces and bemoan
their ill luck. They also force many,
through inaction, to fail. It is, however,
the golden opportunity of the bright,
plucky man who has the nerve to adver-
tise and push his goods. He talks to
buyers through his advertisements, mak-
ing them larger and inserting them often-
er, so that his goods are continually mov-
ing. He thus has a clear field. and.
knowing how to use it, gets the publics
money.—EX.
The greatest joke of the season is that
there are still a few Democratic papers
in the country that pretend to’ believe
that the Sherman law is responsible for
the present panic. However, most of
our Democratic exchanges have quit
springing that transparent excuse on the
public, some time ago, and are silently
trying to hatch ont something else to hide
threatened tariff tinkering, the real cause
of the panic. They must invent a lie
that looks more like truth than the howl
about the Sherman law.
Ir the men who voted for Cleveland
and tariff reform are satisfied with the
present condition and future prospects of
the country, let them continue to vote the
Democratic ticket. If they are not, they
can have no better opportunity for mak-
ing their dissent known than to join in
swelling the majority for Fell and Jack-
son, the candidates on the Republican
State ticket. Pennsylvania is the very
keystone of protection, and if she senda
forth the mandate, ‘hands off the tariff!”
her voice will be potential at Washing-
ton.—VPittshurg Commercial Gazette.
It is at all events the duty of the peo-
ple to hasten to undo the folly of last
November by recording their votes wher
ever possible to express their disapproval
of the avowed policy of the Adminis ra-
tion, until the constitutional opportunity
arrives in 1896 to return to the safe and
successful policy under which our coun-
try has so long prospered. Until that
time shall have arrived and the general
wrong been undone, it is our conviction,
most regretfully uttered, that he who
hopes for a return of the wages or busy
industry of last year will be doomed to
disappointment.—Irish World.
It is a curions coincidence that the
Democratic party oceybies upon its return
to power very much the same critical
position before the country as it occupied
when it went out with James Buchanan.
Itis confronted by an issue vital to the
nation and to its own existence. And it
is prepared to meet it in the same way
it met the issue of 1860. Itis split into
three factions, each at war with the oth-
er two, just as it was when it came out
of the Charleston convention and con-
tinued to be until national calamity fol-
lowed its indecision and bickering. As a
minority it has proven itself strong, alert,
resourceful, combative; as a majority it
is again week, vacillating, disunited. It
is afraid of its own shadow. —New York
Herald.
GraxDp old John Sherman recently
“read off the riot act” to the Democratic
United States Senate in the following
sensible and clear-cut way-
“In times past, when the Republicans
were in the majority, we never shrank
from the responsibility which is now up-
on the Democratic party. We were Re-
publicans because we believed in Repub-
lican principles, Republican men and Re-
publican measures, and whenever a ques-
tion came up in this chamber to be de-
cided, we never plead the baby act.
We ask our brothers on the other side,
for whose ability and standing we have
the highest respect, to meet together and
consult with each other. If they do not
like the President's plan, give us some
other, and in God's name let us settle this
important question for the people of our
country. Then we will take it into our
consideration. If we can agree with you
we will. We will not follow your ex-
ample. If we do not agree with you, we
will give you a manly no.”

Hints on the Dervection of Glanders or
Equina,
Tne following able and valuable article
was recently contributed to the Cumber-
land Courier, by Stuart E. Paulet, the
English veterinary snreen, who had his
office in Salisbury, last fall. It ic so full
of valuable information that we take
great pleasure in reproducing it:
“It having been reported to the Veter-
inary profession that there have been
outhreaks of glanders in Ohio and adja-
cent states, it might be interesting to
some of the stock raisers in the county
to know something of this dread disease.
Glanders is a malignant, very contag-
ious and fatal disease, due to the intro-
duction into or generation in the animal
economy of a virus consisting of an or-
ganism—the baceillus mallei—which in-
fects the whole svstem, more especially
the mucous membrane of the nose, the
lungs, and upon the lymphatic glands
and ducts.
Glanders and farcy originate spontane-
ously in the horse, ass and mule, and
are capable of transmission to man, in
whom the virus increases in malignancy.
Glanders internally develops an inter-
stitial pneumonia. The submaxilliary
lymphatic glands are unusually enlarged.
Very often the earliest noticeable symp-
toms is a rise of temperature, followed
by diabetes or profuse staling. Then we
get a limpid watery discharge from the
nostrils; the discharge becomes thicker,
amber colored tnd sticky; gets smeared
all over the stall and fittings. You may
get a peculiar form of lameness which
moves about like rheumatism. In a few
days yon will have bulging of the facial
bones, the pulse will be accelerated; the
discharge from the nose becomes very
purulent, mixed with a starchy looking
mucous; temperature about 104 to 106
degrees; appetite often remains good:
the mucons membrane of the nose ap-
pears red and congested. and in a few
davs turns a leaden gray color; little
pimples crop up in a few hours, turn to
vessicles and then to pustules that rup-
ture, with a purulent discharge streaked
with blood; the eves are weak and a dis-
charge issues from them: the breathing
is hurried and irregular; abscesses form
along the lymphatics of the face. Farey
has little nodules like buttons, which
burst. discharging a thin purulent yellow
liquid that dries, forming a yellow crust
on the surface of the uleer: itis common-
ly confined to the extremities, the whole
limb being engaged. The flesh is con-
tagious and wild animals have contracted
it from eating the meat. In the buman
subject it is invariably fatal, No cure
for glanders has ever been found. Even
were there a possibility of recovery, the
animal would be a continual source of
danger to other horses and to human be-
ings. It is therefore in the end economy
to immediately destroy glandered horses
when detected, even were human life not
endangered by their presence. - When
glanders appears in a stable, in addition
to removing affected animals, vou should
attend carefully to ventilation, drainage,
food and water, and the cleansing and
disinfection of stable, fittings,
ete. Remove and destroy all contami-
nated wood work, paint all fixtures, scrape
and lime-wash walls, mangers, etc., the
wash to contain a pint of crude carbolic
acid to every bucketful. Give all horses
that may have come in contact with af-
fected animals, two ounces of hyposul-
phite of soda with every meal.” :
