Tne condition of American poli tics at present is very, mixed, to say the least of it. Tin; two old parties, of course, are f t ru „i>ling against each other for su premacy, wbiie of late there has as cended upon the horizon a new star that seeks to outshine ali others. The People’s party, belter known, perhaps, as the third party, con- j r ,r,ts tiie citizens of the Republic with a platform or principles that premises relief to the farming and laboring classes. It arraigns the re- pubiicau.and democratic parties as ki,,g negligent of the trust imposed jpou them, as being unmindful o ^ needs of the poor and toiling eons of the Republic , The main L:>dv of supporters to the new pariy is made up from the auks of the Kuights of Labor out ffest, and with a great many tho hnp-s of success of the new party ntf high. Of course the leaders of the new piny hoj»e to draw a considerable element ot strength from that order imi the Farmers’ Alliance in the g„nth, and in this manner to break thesoiio ranks of the democracy in this section. Hence it is boasted that in 1892 the People's pajly will sweep the South, that l«r so long a lime bas pa led a solid vote for democracy. If that be the Elysian dream of time people ; if it be thought by jheiu that the South can ever be esw iraugol from the principles and tei.esof the dcrotciacy ; if it bo thought that the electoral vote of this Kciion will be cast against the party of .litf:rsnn and Madison and Jack- sou ; then in our humble judgment they are destined to realize a sad dis- ippainlineni. lhcy fail to realize that the very principles contended for by the Alii- nice in ail their fights, are identical with that since the war have constituted the shibboleth of detn- Ewing’s testimony is that good cook- are it I ways wanted everywhere, and (here is scarcely a village in the land where a competent woman could not earn bin wages in giving cooking lessons. Half a dozen churches in Kansas City each paid Mas.

She finds that there are at least 100,000 bakeshops in this country carried on by men, in which the poor est kind of bread is baked by men. It is Mus. Ewing’s opinion that women instead of men should make all the pie 5 and cakes for our cities, and towns and villages. In fact, the great need of our civilization today is better pies and less politics. , Speaking of evolntion of men from monkeys the Boston Herald cites the following incident. A monkey in New York got a bottle of whiskey tne othef day, and, after swallowing the contents proceeded to rip things up generally and even went so far as to decline to hand over the pennies that were given to him by his boss organ grimier, preferring to squander them all on. himself. There seem# to be a good deal of human na ture in the monkey tribe.

We know what a weighty ques tion has been considered, and a woman of any thought or experience would b>sitate inueed to attempt an exposition on the raising of children to be encompassed iu one hundred words. There are few men qualified to take up on tbemsslves the decision of a question so great in itself, and of which they are, as a rule, so ignorant. Few men are intimate with iheir children, or lake paius and lime io study each individual character and its needs; for it is rare that two children in a family have thesame disposition or tem perament. I have three as varied characters to deal Aitb io mine as if they belonged to differ ent nationalities. But the temperament of the child makes no manner of diff- rence in the great ques tion of its proper training. On the mother falls the burden and responsibility of that, aud heis the blame, witn few exception-, when the child goes wrong. THE S>UB-LAZ\' MAN. HE DOESN’T AGREE- HE TALKS AND COGITATES ON | MR.

Jerry Simpson can preach Alliance and Ocala platform all day and the far mers of Georgia will cheer him for it. But when he comes to third party talk the democratic sons of the south are not “in it” at all. The alliancemen of Georgia are democrats just as hot.
