The heje of the imrty lies In the exminten of a staltrtirt Uepubllcan jrre. The llejnib t lea ti trio reads or ethenclse help te hj- lert ci Democratic jxiter te the exclusion of one of his eirn ntrty neiesimiters Is imtme te Uie Itepubllmn eaute. Unanimously mbicrtbeil te by the Xatlenal Itepubltcan Zeaaite. J. S. CLAHKSON, President. A. B. HUMPHHEY. Secretary. ' Adl.ii Stevenson is coming te Ken tucky te make a speech. He should take warning from his Manhattan Club experience and briug his drinking rwater with him. The strikes which occur in this coun try are nearly always caused by the prospects offered the laboring men for 'bettering their condition. They see reasons that entitle them te hope for improvement and they grew impatient te enjoy it and strike te enforce their demands for it. These are net the hopes that strikers in ether countries have any grounds for harboring. Frem the benighted regions of Ar kansas comes the bitter assertion that a member of the People's party is re garded as being "as obnoxious as a le le le constructlen Republican." This is the way it is telegraphed, though probably the Arkansas Democrats liken the ob noxious personage te an "abolitionist." Arkansas has hardly arrived abreast of the war period yet. It is worthy of note that Judge Pihster has departed from the methods practiced by his predecessors. In the appointment of the officers of election, he has in several instances named a Republican Sheriff and a Democratic Clerk. As Is well known, the Sheriff 'has the decision of the doubtful ques tions that may arise, the Clerk having . no voice. Heretofore, when the Judges could net agree, the Sheriff settled it and tee often it was settled in a purely partisan way. Judge Phister is te be commended for his course, which indi cates at least a spirit of fairness te the minority. The cowardly purpose of the Demo crats te seek the people's support en false pretenses Is seen In the way many -Democratic newspapers garble the Tariff plank adopted by their party in Chicago. The Louisville Courier-Journal and ' ether Democratic newspapers keep this plank standing at the head of their columns, thus: We denounce Republlcnn Protection as a fraud, taxing the labor of Uiq. great majority of the people for the benefit of the few. We declare it te be a funda mental principle of the Democratic party that tbe Federal Government bes no power te impose and collect Tariff duties except for the purpose of revenue only. -Thte plank as adopted by the Chicago ' Cosventlen adepts the old Confederate, Bonificatien doctrine without mitiga tion by declaring that the "Federal Government has no constitutional power te isfeae and collect Tariff duties ex Mft for the purposes of revenue only." OiKtvxK Cleveland shied at J hat eflMixutwaai m ' nw specn ei De the DerU "lead- mr iuppii te rtpwHAfcrtlM wtherie(l The intelligent chivalry of Mississippi has fixed up a constitutional require ment that makes it pessible te dis franchise black people while- allowing illitorate whites te vote. Hut what if there should ceme a time when a divi sion of opiuieu arises among the chiv nlry and each side needs the votes of the "damniggers" in order te win? An embarrassment might arise as te hew the the thiug could be settled. Fer iustance, Jenes, the nominee of the regular Democracy, could net have been elected in Alabama the ethor day with such a requirement in force as that in the Mississippi Constitution becnuse the colored people whose votes elected him could net have voted. Dees Protection favor "special inter ests?" Is it merely a scheme te "tax" the masses for the benefit of the "fa vored few?" Is it merely n robbery of Short Tariff the "plain people" Sermons, by the "monopolist manufacturers" pre tected by our Tariff. Jf it is, then indeed is the faith of the Protectionist a very peer one, nor can there be the least justification for such a system of extortion. But ask the importer, nlien as he is in business and tee often nlien, tee, in citizenship ask him as he laughs in his sleeve and pockets the enormous profits reaped by stimulating foreign industries and giving employment te foreign workingmen, whether Protection or Free-trade favors "special Interests." Ask the capitalists nnd men with fixed incomes, interested only in having things "cheap" no matter who suffers, if Free-trade favors no "special inter ests." Ask the free raw material manufac turer, wen ever by selfish considerations of individual advantage, whether Pro tection really only helps "special inter ests." Ask these men, and then ndmire and commend the righteous indignation with which they all oppeso Protection for no ether reason tlinu because it favors "special interests." Protection Is tee bread, tee liberal, tee national a system te favor any "special interest" in the Free-trade sense of the term. It protects American labor an j where and everywhere, en farm and field, in forest and mine, en ship nnd in factory. But if te stimulate American indus try, give motive te American enterprise, add te American wealth and advocate American doctrines nnd support for our own citizens against the world If that Is favoring "special interests," then in deed, does Protection de se. And we glory in it. The Republicans of Masen county are called te meet at the Courthouse in this city en Monday, September 12th, te place a county ticket in the field. Republican The Republicans Convention, of the Ninth Dis trict will meet at Ashland en Thurs day, September 22d, te nominate a can didate for Congress; and at the same time and place a candidate will be chosen for the Court of Appeals by del egates from the First Appellate Court District. These are important events, and every Republican should be present at the preliminary meetings te lend his counsel, that delegates may be chosen who will voice the sentiments of the party. There nre in Masen many Republicans who can fill the county offices as effi ciently as they are filled by our Demo cratic friends and that is saying a geed deal, for peme of our Democratic office holders are exceptionally worthy and efficient. Jhere nre gentlemen in several of the counties of the Ninth District who would make excellent Congressmen, and The Ledger is in favor of giving them a hearing. As te a candidate for Judge of the Court of Appeals, the Republicans will, with unanimity It Is believed, present the present Chief Justlce for re-election. As a jurist and a man, William H. Helt stands as high as any in the state, nnd it is due te his ability and unswir ing integrity that he be again called te a seat in the highest Court in the state. His Democratic opponent is n man of limited experience in the law and is poorly equipped for the responsi ble position te which he aspires. Seme citizens will be shocked and the majority will be nrnnzed te learn hew much money may be made by a fighter as great as Sullivan. In tbe lest ten years, according te the receipts he has given te managers, etc., he has made a Ilttle mere than $800,000. As he has net saved any of that it will be seen that he Is net close, and his popularity with his fol lowers will be understood. lie has spent at the rate of $80,000 a year en the avcrace for ten years, and of that amount there is no doubt that a great pait has been given away te his friends He does net keep horses or tumble.

S2,10.05s QUICKLY BURIED. Cliolera Victims In Hnvre Hustled Uir te tlve Cemetery lthent IK'luy. IIavue, Sept. 2. Every morning two big wagons drlve up te the hospital deer and take a lead of celllns. They return for mere until all arc carted te the cemetery. The funeral service Is always brief- Usually the simple Catholic service of a few words and the digger shovels down the earth. The hospital people discourage any attempt te attend the funeral en the part of friends and relatives of these who die. The ordinary custom is te take the cetlln out and bury the bodies as quickly as possible. Where the patients are peer nnd tin known and have no friends, several arc piled in one grave. Where tlw family has a plot the corpse is buried there. The custom at Havre is net te buy a plot outright, but te rent it for a term of years. Among private houses where deaths occur the authorities demand instant burial. Three hours Is the most ever allowed te elnpse between death and burial, except, of course, where the victim dies at night and can't be buried until morning. The undertakers are kept busy, although there are no fa fa ered ones. Each district of the city has its own undertaker, and every person dying in that section must be buried by him. It is impossible te evade this. Where a pcrseh dies in the night the undertaker comes immediately and puts the corpse into a leaden cetlln hermetically sealed. All cholera victims in the town nre buried in leaden cetllns, net in wooden ones. Under the elrcumstances funerals are very quiet affairs, quickly ever, and sparsely attended, always by a few friends, but very few. Leaden cetllns are believed by the people te prevent the spread of the contagion, still most of them are afraid. , FAR-SIGHTED. Up Is New Studjlui; Mars U lth tin. Nuked Kye Nebraska Man's Keinurkntile Gift. Onn, Neb., Sept a II. P. Marden, living near here, has suddenly become aware of the possession by himself of a mnrvoleus gift. He is able, with h'. naked eye, te see many things en the planet Murs that the ablest astronomers have, as yet, failed te discover. The planet assumes te his eye a diam eter of about twenty inches. He has made several observations, and a few evenings age saw un arc of brilliant light near the soutlv seutlv ern pole of the planet, in what unlng for convenience earthly nomenclature, may be called the entarctic circle. It is at present invisible. He at ptvsent sees a large arc of equally brilliant light in the north temperate zone, that stretches from verge te verge of the planet The strange part of it is that Mr. Marden is shert-6ighted, nnd since he was 23 years old, nearly twenty-five years age, has worn spectacles.
