Secretary. -- -- The American Tin Plate Factory of Elmwood, Intl., lias been dedicated "as an American industry," and fioverner McKiNLEY was the orator e( tlie occa sion. The Republican majority in Maine in net as high as a church nor ns wide as a barn deer, but it will tle. It will keep the pesky Democrats out, and that is what it id there for. Advices from Gray Gables state that Candidate Cleveland Is keeping very quiet these days. He is probably en gaged solely in wondering whether the experiences of his recent visit te New Yerk are worth what they co-d. Assuming that the Hill Democracy and the Cleveland Democracy will pull together, what will the lonesome Mug wump Democracy de then, peer thing? It leeks as though some oue of the ill ill asserted birds were bound te be out of a roosting place befere many days. Chairman Manley of the Republican State Committee of Maine estimates that the Republlcan.candldate for Gov Gov ereor Is elected by a majority ever the Democratic candidate of 12,000, and that the vote en Congressmen gives the Republicans a plurality of 1 1,000. Fbee-tmade Democratic orators are fend of the phrase, "A Natien of million aires and tramps," which they declare will result from Protection. What they wish te see is a Natien of tramps, with a few plantation barons te de the gov erning, such as existed in the Seuth, meat markedly in the geed old days of Free-trade. The Democratic platform is most cer tainly recognized as an efllcial declara tion of Democratic doctrine en the Tar iff question. And no less certainly Is Mr. Kdwabd Atkinson acknowledged te be a learned exponent of that same doc trine en that question. And yet this is the way In which that learned exposi tion And that learned exponent agree: Democratic Platform We doneunco the McKlnley Tariff law enacted by the Fifty-first Congress, as the culminating at rocity of class legis lation, and we prom prem ise its repeal as ene of the benidcent re sults that will fellow the action of the people in intrusting power te the Demo cratic party. Since the McKln McKln eoy Tariff went into operation there have been ten reductions of wages of laboring iimb te one increase. We deny that there kM beefl any in crease of prosperity te the country since that Tariff went in to operation. Mr.Atkinnen in May Forum. There never has been a period In the history of this or any ether country when the Konerul rnte of wages was us high as l is new, or the prices of goods relatively te thu wnges as low as they tire Unlay, nor n period when the workman, in the strict sense of the word, has se fully secured te Ills own use and enjoyment such a steadily and progressively In creasing proportion of a constantly In cranslug product. The people of Maysvtlle stand ready and willing te de their whole duty at all times and under all circumstances. Rut they felt greatly outraged, upon rending in The Cincinnati A'winVrr, that the Health Oflleer of Cincinnati proposed te imike an " outpost" of this eity.and te sta tion elllcers here for the purpose of stop step ping trainsandtaklngoffchelera-stricken people. Neither the Health Olllcer of Cincinnati nor the Governer of Ohie pos sesses the power te establish quarantine regulations in Kentucky. The Leimjeh is for "states rights" that far, because the states nre equal; but it places the authority of the President, whether he be Republican or Democrat, above all, because he represents all the peo ple of all the states. It was with no small degree of pleas ure, therefore, flint the truth of the mat ter was welcomed, when it became known that such was net the Intention of the Cincinnati authorities. They simply asked the co-operation of the Maysville eflicials in an honest ami earnest effort te keep the phigue away from both cities, mid this they will have te the fullest extent, as evidenced by the action of the City Council nt its meeting last night. There is se much cenllict between petty authorities in regard te these mat ters that it is about tlme for the President te "take the hull by the horns" and issue a proclamation stepping immigration and establishing quarantine regulations which will apply te every state and te every community. In the presence of an impending pestilence there is time te discuss mere technicalities, is time te net and te net decisively. no It Geehre Gunten of the College of Secial Economists, says The New York Yerk Press, in nn article in The Secial Economist en the two party platforms, after pointing out that the Democratic platform means free foreign trade (that being the logic of removing such Pro tective features as interfere with foreign trnde,) meets the point that Protection protects capital. Theie is free compe tition, the freest possible competition in our markets, for capital, "Hut we should insist" says Mr. Gunte.v, "that such competien shall be between capi talists only. Their success inut be mnde te depend upon their ability ns capitalists, and net upon their capacity te obtain cheap labor. x capitalist shall have the benefit of our consumption and civilization without paying our wages." This point ought te be clearly appre hended by these who seek te think aright en the subject. Put all capital ists en the sanie National level as te wages, by requiring them te pay Amer ican wages if they would sell In Amer ican markets, nnd their competition faces ene way- the way of improved pro cesses and increased skill and intelli gence. When you admit them te com pete in our niaikets without paying our wages, their competition faces the ether way the downward way. The capital ist with the cheapest labor will reap the biggest profits. Thus Free-tradt) puts a premium en the degradation of labor, while Protec tion puts a premium en the employ ment of American labor and the eleva tion of American skill and intelligence. The ten years immediately preceding the war for the Union nre what Candi date Stevenson calls "the golden period of our history." Rut even James Ih chanan during that period complained that "our manufactories have suspended, our public works are retarded, thousands of laborers nre thrown out of employ ment and our country's monetary inter ests nre in a deplerable condition." It was a golden period for note shavers and mortgage forecloses, if that is what Stevenson means. The mero people knew of Oiilande Cox, our cantlidate for Circuit Court Clerk, the mere votes will be enst for him. He will make nn excellent Clerk, just as competent as his opponent, and lie will he greatly benefitted by an elec tion as he is a peer man. He Is ene of the best young men Maysville has ever turned out, thoroughly honest, honora ble, polite, sober, accommodating and industrious. It will be a credit te the people of Masen county te elect him, nnd it will confer upon him .a promo tion richly earned by an upright, clean, decent life. Mr. Cox is the mainstay of his worthy parents and sister, and has devoted the days of his manhood in do ing and working for them. Don't for for eot him when you coine te vote. There Is net a man in Mnysvilln who can say truthfully a word against him. .1. Allan Daunaiiy, Lexington's young playwright, Is receiving very hlh com cem com jiliinentu from the different tlrnmiitii: journals en having written such an o e cellent play as his latest production, "The Guardian." Toiiacce consumption Is iuci easing In Great Britain. Fer the last year It uvvragud one and nix-tenths pounds per head of the population. In Friiueu It averages nearly two pounds.

A Werd That linrci- it floinliliintleii of Ij Itlclif , Vanity uml Hilarity -l'oe- ile Who Line te rurmlr Their KitruViigitnt 1"hiicIii. The word rastnqueuerc, in its present extended const, is a new one, nnd has no place in any dictionary, snysn. writer in Londen Truth. The uendemy has tm yet net noticed It, The word originated in this way: Ihtrly in the '70'h it Huner Rastnquoueres, who cuine from some part of Siutli America and had tt fabu lously large credit ntltetlihchllri's, burst upon the town- He were prodigiously large brilliants ns shirt studs, rings te match, nnd used te give five-franc pieces as pourbeircs te waiters tit cafes. He. bceame n source of wealth te plcture dealers who had "nuclent musters," the color of gingerbread, nnd painted by young Parisian raplns te get rid of (sic), lie had n box nt the opera, where he used te show off his diamonds, nnd being prodigal both from vanity and geed nature, was, of course, a favorite of the corps de ballet Hew he ended l have no idea. Rut his fortune was seen de voured by sharpers mid his fair friends. After he disappeared these ladles used te go te Notre Dnmc des Ylctelrcs te pray that a rastaqueucre might be sent te them. When it wealthy Spanish-American turned tip he was spoken of by them ns n mata mata queuere. Fer some yehrs the word was exclusively applied te Spanish-Americans and Mexicans. It is new extended te most foreigners who are vain nnd rich, and believe that money can buy miythlng, everything, worth having in life pri.e guests, of course, included. Raren Hirsch was objected te by the circle of La Rue Reyalo as a rasta rasta querere. Three or four years age the term could net have been applied te any English or even North American per son. Rut they are all new, when rich, vain and vulgar, lumped up in the genus of which Sener Rastaquoueres uns the root. One may be a snob without being a rubtnquouerc, but one cannot be a rastaqueucre without beiug a snob The f.inner, I should say, is the snob triumphant, through the things that money can procure. This form of snob sneb Wsm implies advertisement, and plenty of it. The rastaqueucre does net sec what is the geed of having IJ'U'en Isa bella or the prince of Wsiles te guy innt-iiH-is or luxurious dinners unless the papers knew that they came, whut was paid for the floral decorations, what viands and wines wvrawst bef.re them, nnd what cemediens were engaged nt great prices te entertain t'um. It is net society, but nn ndinirirg public, that the rastaqunncre host and hostess crate for. Formerly this word implied a touch of gt ed nature, or, at any rate, an open hand in spending money. One may new be ns hard as nails and yet a rtistaqneuere. It will de te ccin lavish. A resident of TiltMvillc, Pa., com mitted snicide a few daj's age from a melancholy conviction that he wns his own grandfather. Here is the singular letter that he left: "I married a widow who had a grown-up daughter. My father visited our house very often, fell in love with my stepdaughter and mar ried her. Se my father became my bon-In-law and my stepdaughter my mother, because she was my father's wife. Seme time afterward my wife had a son; lie was my father's brother-in-law and my uncle, for he was the brother of my stepmother. My father's wife that is, my stepdaughter had also a son; he was, of course, my brother and in the meantime my gsand dtild, for he was the son of my daugh ter. My wife was my grandmother, because she was my mother's mother. I was my wife's husband and grand child nt the same time. And as the hus band of a person's grandmother is his grandfather, I v.us my own grand fathw" . j'he sending of u telegram is, appar ently, a very simple matter, but oc casionally un etil spirit gets into the wires, and perverts the original messnge into a shape which causes wrath te the sender and much mirth te the looker looker en, says the San Francisce News Let ter. A case in point occurred a few days age. The telegraph operator of an engineering and construct ion party, at work near Hartferd, tek"T.iphed te n friend of his in that town te send him n couple of lamp shades, and, being en intimate terms with the family, added his best regards te "Mellic," the friend's wife. In the cipher used en the line, "my best regards" is indicated by the words "seventy-three." The message when sent read: "Send me two lamp shades by evening train, and scvonty scventy scvonty three te Mellic." When the dispatch was received it read: "Send me two lamp shades by evening train, nnd seventy-three temnles." The receiver read and re-read the message, almost doubting the evidonce of his own eyes, but "seventy-three, tomales" was there plain enough, nnd the thing was te get the required number. The resources of Iianferd in the temale line wero taxed te their utmost, and that evening the brakeman carried two large boxes te the telegraph ear, dropped them en the fleer, nnd handed the nstenlshed operator a nete: "DearX: What the de you want with soventy-thrce tema'les? I send you forty-five, all I could get Have had two women mak ing them all day. Will fend the rest te-morrow Rill is seven dollars." The nir was blue about the car for awhile, but the trainmen had u temale supper. New the operator has his mehsu','08 re peated if he thinks .there's the slightest ehanee of their being misconstrued.
