Icicle John Sherman ought to be
very solid with the Alaska delegation.
One blast of tke old Roman's bn
gle on the red bandana is worth a
thousand Northern votes.
—
Toe old Roman can still talk, and
his words have the same ragged bark
on toern that they have always had.
Judge Thurman may be a little
old, bat ho is a long ways from
being as dead (is the Republicans
will tfish him before the campaign is
over.
There having been some demand
from our subsersbers for a rooster
over the nomination, it will be found
on this page today. If you don’t sec
what you want in the Njcws,just call
for it-
With a jadiciou3 nomination and
a sound protectionist platform, the
Republicans can probably carry Penn
sylvanio. We do not think of any
other State just now that cau reason
ably be conceded to them.
Nobody knows what the liepubii
can convention will do, but there is
one thing which it pretty certainly
will not do. It will not put up against
Cleveland and Thurman those ten
der youngsters Bobby Lincoln and
Freddy Grant.
A 1 ACTOR IN THE CONTEST.
A party which in a few minutes
can raise in its National Convention
a campaign fund of nearly $30,000,
contributed without a hope on the
part of the donors of any return
whatever, is entitled to be regarded
as a factor in a national political con
test. It was no wild freak of en
thusiasm, says the Record, that led
the Prohibitionists to start off in
their Presidential campaign for
and Brooks, but rather a deliberate
purpose to mate such a demonstra
lion of strength next fail as might
astonish and confound the two lead¬
ing political parties. It has been
declared by Prohibitionists that tojir
present mission is “to break down
the Republican party,” and in that
task, no doubt, they have been great
ly assisted by the folly of the leaders
Of that once powerful political organ
.znion, who have neglected the
reforms that Republicanism should
stand for, to follow after strange
gods of mouopoly, corruption and
sectional hate. If less of
strength have been diverted to the
ranks ot the Prohibitionists, it is be
cause the Democracy, through all its
blunders and stumbling, has stead¬
ily clung to those vital principles
individual liberty and the honored
theories of popular sovereignty
which have been handed down to
later generations by the founders of
the Government. The Prohibition
managers have long lecognizad this
distinction, and witli the material in
tesesis of the country through Demo
cratic ascendency,by meansof which
anti saloon Republicans have in pro
vious campaigns been kept within
the party ranks, they anticipate
, large accessions to the ranks of the
Prohibitionists during the months
preceding the November election.
Their hopes will probably be real zed
unless in the meantime the Republi
can organization shall eeoso to star.d
for schemes of personal politics,
monopoly, extravagance in adminis¬
tration and centralization of official
power to which Prohibitionists, in
common with other intelligent citi¬
zens, are inflexibly opposed.
THE BANDANA.
There iB great potentiality in your
bandana. It has fluttered into sud
den political prominence as if by its
own volitioD. It has about its fold*
the grace of an old-fashioned bones
ty, homeliness and democracy as rare
as Ben Franklin’s, and is properly
made the oriflamme of a simple old
hero like Allen Granberry Thurman.
No flaming color, or polka dot» T 'or
variegated squares can give it arro
gance. An unchanging stability of
character has marked it from the
moment the loom tamed it forth in
the days of our fathers.
As that bandana was flaunted at
foreign courts by our homespun
philosopher, whose very sneeze, pro
vocative of its use, was formidable
'to weak-kneed dynasties, so has Allen
Granberry Thurman waged war with
against political inftffmies in many
a heated canvaes, when its soft swish
across the forehead absorbed the bon
est sweat of patriotic toil.
In the land of cottonseed and
sandy bottom, too, we have eome
millions of swarthy fellow citizens
who know a bandana when they see
it! It is the same old Allen Granber
ry Thurman pattern: the same cloth
that defies fashion and station; invin
cible because Democratic; as useful
and expressive in flytime as in the
heat of debate; the emblem of dom
estic comfort-, the token of a compos
ed mind at the village church, as of
fidery on humble heads, a reminis
conce of the days of plenty, “befo’d
wab,” and a sure ihark of respectabil
ity, alike in a Senator of the United
States and in the toiler in the South
ern fields.
There is not the hint of surrender
in the b^nd^na. It is emblemat c
of Democratic victory, honesty and
simplicity. Long may the principles
Of the bandana wave in the laud of
the free and the home of the brave !

DE3KH BATff PLATFORMS.
If any man doubts wkat lias been
the position of the Democratic party,
let bim read the official utterances
made continuously from 1800 to
1888. -
This record beguu in 1800 by de
mantling free commerce with atl na
tions, is followed in 1850 by a pledge
6f progressive free trade and ana closes Closes
in 1888 by the declaration that un
necessary taxation is unjust taxation.
Here is a written law of the party,
showing that at every stage of the
nation’s history, the Democratic par
ty, the party of Jefferson, of Jackson,
of Cleveland, has contended for the
largest freedom of trade consistent
with the d.j. • d of an economical
govermn >nt 1 nnail revenues.
There i possible way for get
ting aroi, J th s position. It ;s clear
ly defined, it is well taken, it is ira
pregnable. Cowards and traitors we
have bad from the beginning, but the
party has on this issue held always
to the principles of the Declaration
of Independence, which was as much
an insistance on man’s right to ex
change freely as ’* s a demand for
freedom of po action.
By this record the Democratic par
ty must stand or fall.

HOOD S SARSA PAftiUi"
Were all wise enough to heed Oils advice in
season, a world of suffering would be avoided.
The best months In which to take Hood’s
Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier, are
March April May
At no other season is the body so much in
need of, or so susceptible to the benefit to be
derived from Hood’s Sarsaparilla, as now.
Tho impoverished condition of the blood| the
weakening effects of the long, cold winter, the
lost appetite, and that tired feeling, all make
a good spring medicine absolutely necessary.
Try Hood’s Sarsaparilla and yon will be con¬
vinced that it is the ideal spring medicine.
