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. Tlie Heaven is Work in if.

I Wi irA* Wilh 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.

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.

The solution 'fails entirely when New York, New Jersey and Massa chusetts are reached.

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.
