the Democrats And they have now reul'y

Rread is the staff of life, but a stafl
khould be well varnished. Therefore,
with bread we should have butter, and to
put poor butter on good bread would be
little less than sacrilege. Good bread,
with good butter, of the natural color, is a
bill of faro fit for a King or a free Amer
ican citizen, which are, really, correspond
ing terms. People could live years on
oread and butter alone, if they were with
out any other articles of food, and the
better the bread and the butter, the more
wholesome and muscle-making would he
their diet.
We have in former times, made repeated
and bitter complaints of the poor quality
of butter brought to th-s market, and hae,
oc.cjsioni.llv-, been almost persuaded, by
the arguments of alleged butter-makers,
(or the makers of alleged butter),
that the producing of a good article is an
impossibility in this climate. Rut we are
now fully persuaded that the climate is
uot to be saddled with the sins of slovenly
or ignorant farmers or dairymen, and that
the exercise of proper degrees of care and
skill will produce a good quality of butter
in this county of Clark at any season of
the j ear. For, let it be understood that
there has been, during the past few years,
a great improvement in the quality ol but
ter made in this vicinity und sold in this
market, and we take pleasure in saying
that we now find as good butter, made here,
as can be found anywhere in Chautau
qua, or Orange county, New York,
o in France or England, and
the statement that the French and English
make excellent butter, must be accepted.
But, fortunately, we are not left to give
our testimony, to stand simply on.its own
strength, as we hare, in an editorial utter
ance of the American Dairyman, of New
York, the central and leading organ of the
dairy interest of the United States, evi
dence from the highest source of the truth
of our assertion. The editor of the Dairy
man speaks of some specimens of Clark
county (Ohio) butter as follows:
"We have lately been the recipients of two
baskets of butter addressed to the proprietor
and editor of this paper, that were the finest
simples of winter butter we ever put into our
fathomless editorial maw. The latest style,
you know, for butter ou the table is in small
lumps, fashioned after strawberries or otbei
convenient forms. ell, in te center ot
these baskets was one large lump, slightly
figured, wliile surrounding it, like a basket
of nuts, were two or three pounds ot doable
cones, containing about an ounce of butter
each, fresh, crisp, nutty-flavored, hard
and dry as rocks, and with an aroma
almost as rich as June butter. It was worked
perfectly dry, and yet the grain was
perlection. The color was a light straw,
natural, we take it, as the butter was mad
from Jersey milk, and there was just a trace
of salt in it. It reminded us more closely ot
the ussalied b'utter we ate in the best res
taurants of Paris, than any butter we have
ever tasted outside of tbat heaven of high
bving."
"That butter," says the editor of the
Dairyman, "was made by Mr. Edward
Harrison, Springfield, Ohio, from his herd
ot Registered Jerseys," and the editor lets
Mr. Harrison tell bis own tale as follows:
with the best dairy rules, from healthy and
tentle Jerseys that are kindly treated, being
ted with the best tl at can be given them, and
in the maLing neither milk, cream, nor but
ter ever comes iu contact with the hands.
The sample I send was made priicipsl' trom
the granddaughters and great granddaughters
ol 'llatchles,' a cow of some considerable
time Mr. Hardin will remember her and
her daughter Dimple."
To this the editor of the Dairyman re
sponds, as follows:
"Ah! well, we do remember old Matchless
and ber beautiful daughter Dimple. She. was
the first imported or registered Jersey we
ev er owned, and the best. We bought her off
shipboard at Baltimore, and got her cheap
because she had a white tail. We always
felt grateful to that white tail. The old cow
djed the property of Mr. Burden, ot Troy, X.
Y., and we know ber blood tingles now in
the veiiis of a number of offspring high up in
the fourteen-pound list. Dimple, that we be
lieve has made over fourteen pounds a week,
wa bred exactly after our choice; but, alas I
for us, the Club would not register her sire,
Wallace Barnes.' We sold the bull, and
nevtr had the lack to get so good a one
again. The Club subsequently relented and
allowed him to be registered, but too late to
save our system ot breeding."
But there is, now, much other cry good
butter besides that made by Mr. Harrison,
or rather Mrs Harrison and her accom
plished daughter, Miss May, made in this
county, and sold in this city, and it is sold
for nearly twice the price of ordinary but
ter, and paid for, at high rates, without
grumbling, by persons who accept the fact
that really good butter, as well as cheese,
has nourishing qualities to a ten-fold degree
abov e those possessed by poor articles of
this kind. And good bntter can always
be sold, in any state of the market, at any
time of the year. There is an important
financial bearing in these facts for those
who wisli to give them practical develop
ment. It requires not much more labor
or time to make good butter than to make
poor butter, and the profit realized from
the genuine article is much greater than
that from that which is bad.
Boston is now suffering terribly, from
lacerated feelings. As if what Howells
and James are printing about her in their
novels were not enough Mr. Amos A.
Lawrence, one of the Lawrences and a
citizeu of Boston, says of her: "If there is
any place in the world that represents
Sodam and Gomorrah it is Boston." Mr.
Lawrence should travel about some, and
visit Cincinnati and Chicago. He might
change his mind.
It is not because Cincinnati has nothing
to expose that she is to have no exposition
this year. There are Tom Campbell and
Beresford, yoj know.

Formerly, when a great Shoshone
warrior died, they killed his favorite
wife over his grave so that she could
go to the happy hunting grounds with
him, but it is not -o cu-tomary now. I
tried to impioss on an old ishoshono
brave once that they ought not to do
that. I tried to show him that it would
encourage celibacy and destroy domes
tic ties in bis tribe. S nco that there
has been quite a stride toward reform
among them. Instead of killing tho
widow on the death of her husband,
the husband takes such good care of
his health und avoids all kinds of in
tellectual strain or physical fatigue,
that late y ears there are no widows,
but widower- ju-t seem to swarm in
the Shoshone tribe. The w oods are full
of them.
Now, if they would only kill tho
widower over the grave of the wife, tho

lllll "' Opinion of MiohIioiii',
Citulilnetlif "HoihIukTi.iIii.
I find that one of the most serious ol
jeetion to living out of town lie- in tho
difficulty experienced m catching the
earlv niorningtraiii" In which I must
reach the city and my business It is
by no means a pleasant matter, under
any circumstances, to have one's move
ment regulated by a tmie-t ible, and to
be obliged to ri-e to bieikfist anil to
leave home at a certain hour, no mat
ter how strong the temptation to
delay may be. But sometime- the
horrible puiietu ility of the tram is pro
ductive of ab-olutc suffering For in
stance: I look at my watch when I
get out of bed. and (mil that 1 have
apparently plenty of time, so I dress
leisurely and sit dow n to the morning
meal in a frame of mind which is calm
and serene. Just as I crack my first
egg I hear the down train from Wil
mington. I start in alarm, and taking
out my watch I compare it with the
clock and find tint it is eleven minutes
slow, and that 1 have only live iu nutes
left in which to get to the depot.
Just as I get to the gate 1 find that I
have forgotten my duster and tho bun
dle my wife wanted niototake up to the
city to her aunt. Charging back I
snatch them up and tear dow n the
gravel walk in a frenzy I do not like
to run through the village; it is undig
nified and it attracts attention; but I
walk furiously. I go faster and faster
as 1 get away from the main street.
When half the distance is accomplished
I actually do hear the whistle; there
can be no doubt about it this tunc. I
long to run, but I know tbat if I do I
will excite that abominable speckled
dog sitting by the sidewalk a little dis
tance ahead of me. 'linn I really see
tho train coming around the curve
close by the depot, aud I feel that I
must make better tune; anil I do. Tho
dog immediately nnnife-ts au interest
in my movement-. He tears after mo
and is -peedily joined by live or six
other dogs, w Inch frolic about my legs
and bark furiously Sundry small
boys, as I goiluusing past, contribute
to the excitement by whistling with
their liti!rer-. and the men vv ho aro at
work upon the new meeting hou-c stop
to look at me and ixxchange jocular re
marks with each other I do feel ridic
ulous, but 1 must catch that tram at
all hazards.
I become desperate when I have to
slacken my pace until two or three wo
men vv ho are standing on the siiicvv alk
di-cusVmg the infamous price of butter,
scatter to let me pas-. 1 arrive within
afewyauls of the station with my
duster lliug in the vv Tnd, with my coat
tails in a horizontal position, and with
the speckled dog nipping at my heels,
just as the tram begins to move. I put
on an extra pressure, re-olv mg to get
tho train or perish, and I reach it just
as the last car is going by. I seize the
hand-rail, I am jerked violently around,
but finally, after a desperate effort, I
get upon tho step with my knees, and
am hauled in by the brakeman, hot,
dusty, aud mad, with my trousers torn
across tho knee-, my leg- bruised, and
three ribs of my umbrella broken.
Just as I reach a comfoi table seat in
the car the train stop- and then backs
up on the siding, where it remains for
half an hour vv bile the engineer repairs
a dislocated valve. The Anger which
burns in my bo-omasl reflect now upon
what has proved to have been the folly
of that race, is increased as I look out
of the window and observe tho speck
led dog engaged with lus companions
in an altercation over a bone. A man
who permits his dog to roam about the
streets nipping the legs of every one
who happens to go at a more rapid
gait than a walk, is unfit for associating
w ith civ ilizeil being-. He ought to be
placed on a dc-ert island m mid-ocean,
and bo compelled to stay there. Max

camo at the last moment was a fiery
and untamed Irishman, who-e face was

walked through the smoking-car, found
every scat occupied by two men, and
then" burst into the next car impetuous
ly. The air at once became redolent
of rum. Ho ca-t his oy cup and dovvn
on either side of the car and saw that
every scat was occupied by parcels,
lugg'age, feet, or the sprawling forms of

had a specially lank complement of

other end of tho car, and washed his
hands carelc-sly with water from the
ice-tank. The train was now speeding
across tho Jersey meadow s. Still no one
offered to share his scat with tho latest
arriv al, and the Irishman went back and
leaned against the door once more. Fin
ally he raised his voice so that it could
boheard a considerable distance into
the next car and remarked, with an air
of philosophical observation:
"People don't seem to realize that this
here is second-class. It is just the same,
anil the tirst-class cars are in the rear.
'Iho second-class chumps which is now
occupying the sates puts ou twice as
many lugs as the first-class ladies and
gintlemen behind us. That is because
thev are not tirst-class ladies aud gintle
men themselv es, but simply second-class
chumps."
A silence of several minutes followed
this speech, which was finally broken
bv tvv o or three men mov ing tow ards
the corners of their seats and placing
their bags and satchels on the tloor.
Then the voice of the man in the rear
ro-e again above the hum of the wheels.
"There is no hog like an old hog,"
he remarked, scntentioiisly. "A man
would think that a gray beard and bald
head would go along with wisdom and
experience, but it ain't alw ays the case.
There is bald-he.uled men in this world
who wouldn't give a man a lift to save

man with a gray beard who will wear a
preacher's clothes and occupy four scats
in a second-class car, whilevvorkingmen
are standin' up, is a large, fat, bevel
edged hog."
Tho gray-haired man who occupied
tho tvvo benches and who wore" tho
habiliments of a clergy man roso here,
looking veiy red in the face, and hur
ried forward into the smoking car. A
moment later ho camo back, followed
by the brakeman, who wore the usual
easy-going nonchalcnt, and blase ex
pression of a man of his calling.
"This man," sputtered the clergy
man, angrily, pointing to the rcd-head-cd
Irishman, "has been indulging in the
grossest sort of per-onal abu-e toward
the passengers iu this car, directing the
bulk of it toward me."
The brakeman dived down into the
inner recesses of his clothes, produced a
paper of tobacco, p.ntook thereof gen
erously, and said pleasantly to the man
in the red wiskers:
"What's up, Irish?"
"I was making a few general re
marks about the hogs that travel on
this road and occupy four scats when
they onlv have a right to occupy one."
"Who"does it?"
"Your frind, tho praist there."
The brakom m glanced down, turned
tho forward scat back into its proper
form, tossed the clergy mail's bundles
on the rear seat, and then said to that
gentleman:

"Of eonrse it is awfully funny to
shout 'Lock up the wine cellar, Mary,
for the plumber is coming.' " said ono
of thebig-hill gentlemen to a reporter,
"but it isn't a pleasant remark for a
plumber to hear."
"Is it true that a plumber can einpty
a barrel of whisky while he is soldering
up 11 pin-hole in a water pipe?"
"Non-ense! Mind, I don't say that
when a plumber is wording in ii rich
man's cellar where there are barre's of
liquor that he won't tako a drink now
and then that U, some of them vvilL"
"How is it with yourself?"
'Oh, I -sometimes turn the faucet, but
never to take nioro than a drink or two
in a day, excepting once."
"When was that?"
"You won't put that in the paper,
will you?"
"Sure."
"Then I'll tell vou all about. Three
f or four v cars ago Jim and I had a job
up on Woodward avenue. When wo
went down into the cellar tho servant
girl followed us, took a brass key that
was hanging on a nail and carried it
up stairs. There was a cask of French
brandy, a barrel of bourbon, another
of port and another of sherry, and
there was a birrel-room lockedfull of
bottled liquors. It made Us smack our
lips, just to look around at the barrels
pnd bottles, but when it came to tak
ing a drink, the liquor might as well
havo been in the moon. The barrels
all had theso patent lock faucets in
them, and the girl had carried off tho
key.
"Wo worked away all tho forenoon
with nothing but water to drink, but
Jim swore that he would have some of
that wine in tho afternoon, though I
couldn't see how ho was going to get
it; I hadn't got my trade learned then.
Pretty soon after we went to work in
the afternoon Jim pulled about a yard
of small rubber tubing out of" his
pocket, hunted up an empty fruit jar,
knocked out a hung and siphoned out
a couple quarts. of port. Maybe wo
didn't get so drunk that vvc had to quit
work!" Detroit Free Press
