ANOTHER CONTRIBUTION ON
THE PRESIDENTIAL BATTLE
THE PATRIOT MUST STEP DOWN
To Mako Room for tho Man Who
Hlrod a Substltuto When tho
Country Called for His
Services.
HE battle Is over and
tho victors aro now
preparing to scat their
oliampion tho cham
pion of tho Solid South
tho man whoso his
tory marks him as an
evader of duty nud as
far beneath tho spbero of manhood and patri
otism that was embodied in Harrison as tho
serf is beneath the Czar. The man who
shouldered his musket and fought for the
preservation of tho Union against tho on
slaught of tho South will on tho fourth of
next Starch surrender tho Presidential chair
to a man who bought a substltuto for his
place at tho'front.
Cleveland, tho pet of tho Solid South, tho
Buddha of tho ignorant and superstitious
and tho Idol of tho corruptionists of tho
country, will inarch triumphantly to Wash
iugton again and gladden tho hearts of tho
Union's enemies by tendering to tho Solid
South tho rags which were taken from her
when she tried to rule.
"By tho will of the people," tho Democrats
say that Cloveland was chosen, but they
know better. Cleveland takes tho chair by
tho will of tho hurriedly and illegally natur
alized foreign element that has gained or is
rapidly gaining control of tho largo cities of
tho Union, such as New York, Boston,
Chicago, St. Louis, Indianapolis and .Mil'
waufcee.
It will be a stupendous undertaking to dis'
lodge tho Democrats, even should they fall,
as they undoubtedly will, in satisfying tho
independent element that gavo them such a
sweeping victory. They are evidently not
going to ;let go tho grip they have on tho
Solid South, and tho hold Tammany has In
having complete possession of the election
machinery in New York makos it next to an
Impossibility for tho Republicans to get a fair
shako over theio. The big settlement of
foreign laborers in Chicago seems to havo put
tho Democracy of that city in a position that
will enable them to control the vote of
Illinois for soino years to crme. This same
foreign element in Boston is bound at no dis
tant day to mako Massachusetts Democratic.
Tho Republicans do not appear to bo able to
catch any of tho foreign element that comes
to our shores in theso days. For somo rea
son (who can explain it?) these people go into
tho Democratlo party.
It is only a question of time of when tho
American bom people and their descendants
will bo crowded out in every corner and
those who como hero and aro naturalized
beforo tho smoll of tho sea breeze is out of
their clothing will be absolutely In control.
And then what will tho Americans do?
Nothing. For should thoy attempt to assert
their rights thoy will bo declared guilty of
Know Nothiugism, and if they persist in
their claims the made-to-order Americans
will rosort to the policy that was invoked to
kill witchcraft. I
This is pleasant food for reflection on the
part of the patriotic (?) Americans who are
continually harping on " our country " and
yet voted to again place at its head a man
who did not havo courage to go to the front
and light for her preservation when tho
South had Its fingers clutched about her
throat.
But "wo've gone on' dono it" and thero is
nothing for the villainous (?) Republicans to
do but to sit down and await tho ralsiug of
the curtain on G rover Cleveland's glorious (?)
second term. Let us smllo while wo can and
when Tammany puts her sachems in charge
of tho government we will try to smile again.
Yesterday morning tho price of milk went
up in town from 8 to 10 cents a quart and tho
housekeepers do not tako kindly to the ralso.
Tho Democrats will of courso say the elec
tion of Cleveland had nothing to do with the
raise, but when a laily asteu to-day lr tno
scarcity of water had anything to do with
It the milk man looked dreadfull v indlnnant.
It may bo that tho cows are on strike.
Democrats will laugh at the Idea that tho
recent election could have au effect on milk, '
, . , , , ..
but there are somo who will remember tho
tree trauo tlnios oi mo w s, wneu went was
scarce and people were on the vergo of
starvation. Thoy will perhaps remember
tho free trade times when about everything
used In this country was made across the sea.
The pieces of crockery, plates and other j
dishes, will no doubt be recalled, with tho
English lion surrounded by blue on tho
bottom. Tho knives and forks and pocket
knives from Sheffield, England ; tho locks
upon tho doors with the English lion and tho
unicorn stamped upon themj all those and in
fact nearly all articles of household uso will
bo remembered as having tho foreign trade
mark. And at this tinio, peoplo somo of our
people will remember, that tho authorities of
a borough not a thousand miles from Shen
andoah rented a hall and stocked it with
flour, meal and vegetables, which wero dis
tributed among heads of families who
received orders for a small pittance per day
in return for work dono on tho public high
ways. State ( Wild Uat J bank notes were in
circulation and mingled with tho Bhinplastcrs,
and miners and laborers received store orders
and each colliery had a store.
The platform upon which Qrovcr Cleve
land was elected last Tuesday Includes wild
cat bank and free trade policies, and the
Democratic party was in lull power when
tho times wero as they are described above.
Tho only thing surprising Is that all tho
milk in the country did not turn sour and
remain so after tho result of tho election was
made known. C. Y.

A young man named Joyce, aged adout 20
years, and employed as a driver at Bear
Ridgo colliery, whilo returning to the stables,

Waato of Timo,

1 BMJ. -r
again afforded tho
management of tho
Shenandoah Feed and
Lumber Company with
food for reflection and
speculation. Last night somo unknown
parties forced open tho office door at tho lum
beryard on East Coal street and turned their
attention to "cracking" a drawer of a desk.
After breaking tho lock and splintering con
siderable woodwork the midnight visitors
pulled out tho drawer and exposed to view
three copper pennies. To sniff at this
find was hut natural for a burglar, so
the visitors turned their attention to a safo
in a corner of tho office. The safe door was
unlocked. This should have been sufficient
notice that thero was not a gold mine in
reach, but tho burglars did not take tho hint.
Thoy opened tho safe door and with a largo
chisel tried to break tho woodwork away
from the inner iron chest. This work was
not pushed fur aud it is believed tho workers
wero frightened off.
This last was tho sixth attempt that has
been made to mako a haul at this place and
on no occasion bavo tho burglars secured a
cent. Each attempt has been mado on Mon
days following pay day.
Tho proprietors of the placo say that tho
burglars arc either very green and ignorant,
or somebody is taking a big risk on practical
jokes.

When anything stands tho test of fifty
years among a discriminating people like the
Americans, it is pretty good evidence that
thero is merit somewhere. Tho value of a
medicine is best proved by its continued uso
from year to year by the tamo persous and
families, as well as by a steady increasing
sale. Fow, if any, medicines havo met with
such continued success and popularity as has
marked tho introduction and progress of
Brandreth's Pills, which, after a trial of over
fifty years, aro conceded to bo the safest aud
most effective purgative and blood puraficr
introduced to the rublic. That this is tho
result of merit, and that Brandreth's Pill3
actually perform all that is claimed for them,
is conclusively proved by the fact that thoso
who regard them with tho greatest favor aro
thoso who have used them the longest.
Brandreth's Pills aro sold in every drug
and medicine store, cither plain or sugar
coated.
