" It is libelous per se for Cole
J4ttchell ! to insinuate even that i
o its local contemporaries
guilty of cribbing from sucl
dull and dreary waste as the Co

of thistles , or to ' draw rich ,
blood from a turnip.
Sknatou Thujiston' s recent p
for Cuba and humanity touchec
tender and responsive chord
ovary American heart. The sei
tor is not only a Eepublican
whom there is no guile , but he
a r.talwart , warm.hearted Ame
cu < < , whose geneums impulses
out spontaneously to the oppress
aid to those seeking liberty a
fr-edom from tyranny. Hence 1
lapae from partisanship to patrii
ism is the more superb.
The Republican party has
givpt opportunity now , If it w
p s a wise , conservative tariff bi
oue that will afford ample revem
and sufficient protection withoi
being oppressive in any respect ,
wi'l be accepted by the country
a settlement of the tariff questic
for at .least eight or ten year
This would give our industries
chance to recuperate and that r <
suit would inure to the credit c
the party that passed the bill. E3

1 We have it on the authority c
the Kansas City Star that th
"helpful hen" is attracting mor
: attention in Kansas , just now , tha ;
the initiative and referendum. I
has been discovered down there
apparently , that the hen and th
cow have enough potential wealtl
in them to save the entire stat
from foreclosure. They literall ;
saved thousands of people fror
want in Nebraska during th e droutl
I period , and now they are doinj
their share nobly in paying o\ \

flood sufferers on the lower MiB

used. The laborers are returning
to their fields , and farther aid wil
I

ord , and , taken in connection witl
j the fight made for the levees , es-
1 pecially in Louisiana , is a most
creditable one. Never before hat

Colonel Timothy Sedgwick
; of the York Times undertakes to
mildly lecture The Tribune be
cause its publisher does not , like
! him , go through the poignant
1 pangs of parturition at every men
tion of the word Pop , whom he
persistently pulverizes. The Col
onel is distinctly out of order and
jurisdiction a trifle presumptious
and a mite over-bumptious , but we
congratulate him on his superb
power of the imagination , if we
cannot commend his judgment.
The Tribune's Republicanism
needs no sponsor at home or
abroad. It has plainly and frank
ly spoken for itself , these fifteen
years , and will continue so to do.

considerations it was decided
not to have public graduating

ays : ' "I have not sufficient command or lan-

one for me and my friends were fully con- *
inced that nothing but death would relieve

zcommended Chamberlain's Pain Balm. At *
