Another Explanation.
The defeat of Fojrjitcar for Gov
ernor in G.iio was caused by Re
publican Sabbatarians p**tting
their faith in the promises and
pieiv of Democratic and Republi
can Sabbatarians, who *et the trap
for the thrtd-term Governor, bait
e i it with promises of votes, and
into it he walked, unwarned by
past experiences and unsuspecting
the perfidy of these pious people,
who had kindly tendered th# as
sistance of the Lord as weli as
their own for a third term. The
trap was then sprung, and the vic
tim was securely ftajfgbt.—Chicago
Tribune.

Democrats on the stump boldly
and persistently presr-ed the issue
of free wool. These countie* in
188? gave a Republican plurality
of 1,003$ in 188 V itbev return a
Democratic plurality of 166. Six
teen other countie* own another
third of the flock* of the State,
and there, too, the wool question
vac debated continuously by both
parties. Jn 1887 th«y returned a
Republican plurality of 6,868; in
1889 this plu-alitv wa* reduced bv
2.092 to 4,596- If tjie constituents
of D.-lano and Lawrence cannot be
depended upon to •♦and by taxed
wool, who can? One of the admin

Campbell’s sucres* in Ohio would

It begins to look that way.—Spring

Major Butterworth has been •'in
terviewed” in Chicago. He, of
course, claims that Ohio is Repub
lican and “will show her true col
ors” in the next presidential elec
tion. The Major quotes from
fecripture, as appropriate to the
occasion, the words: “Whom the
Lord loveth He chasteneth.” Per
e .
haps nis most significant observa
tion is that “Foraker is an able and
aggressive leader, but isn’t always
discreet in his selection of man
and measures.” These are words
with stings in tljem. Even now

A Oreat Emancipation.
Non-residents who did not visit
lowa during the period between
the civil war and the late presi
dential eleution have no idea of
the composition and characteristics
of the dominant majority of that
State. Frobab'y in no community
since the days of the Huguenots,
the revocation of the edict of
Nantes, and the persecution of the
Lollards by the English Henry?,
have there bft**n exhibited an in
tolerance rnd a fafcHtacism equal
in magnitude and malignancy to
those which are shown by the
Hawkeye State. It is a so’emu
fae.t that, for an entire generation,
free speech wai practically sup
pressed in lowa. The emanoipa
tion which the people of that State
won last Tuesday was at great—
wit.i the difference of boundaries

or the freedom of the Southern

Not the Resalt of L.oea) Cause*.
The efforts ot the Republicans
to find an explanation of the dis
asters to their party in the st*te
elections would have more success
if there were uot uniformity in the
popular wave It is ea»y to say
that Mahoneism in Virginia, For
akerism in Ohio and Prohibition
in lowa were the crushing weight*.
The solution 'fails entirely when
New York, New Jersey and Massa
chusetts are reached. It will occur
to rea&rmabjs minds that if the
voting in Statea widely separated
were materially affected by purely
local cansas, the drift would not
be all in one direction. They
would produce variant result* in
various,State*. There i*a common
chord running through jth*m all.
That is tariff reform —not the re*
form that the Republican plat
forms have advanced. The people
don’t want tariff changes in the
direction *of the protection theo
ries, They mean to have relief,
whatever the fortunes of the Re
publican paity. —Bt. Pad Globe.

Giggling is described in the dic
tionary as the act qf “laughing
i with short catches of breath ” as
“laughing idly, tittering, grin
ninsr.” it i« silly childish
enough anywhere, but in church it
is abominable, and yet there is no
place #d)ere giggling i* more com
mon. It is natural in schoolgirls
but when met with in young
women of nifletee/j jgnd twenty it
is unpardonable. It is frequently
icharaetefistic of young men with
incipient mustaches, who think
they qualify themselves for man
hood by affecting contempt for
what their elders revere. They
giggle. If they catch the eye of
an acquaintance they giggle; if aq
old woman rises too soon for a
hvmn they giggle; if a baby cries
they giggle; if the clergyman
cough they giggle: if the plate is
handed to some one who puta
nothing jn they giggle; if the
choir makes a mistake they giggle.
In fact nothing is too insignificant
to arrest their notice and pr.duce a
niggle, not evei. the fact that thpy
have just enough nense to giggle
because they did giggle, and can
giggle. Eagle.
