Knpcno 1'lcldV Fondness l'or Children.
Eugene Field was n man of gener
ous, tender spirit and boundless sym
pathy. He gained and hold the love
of little children and of men and
women; for in his writings he appealed
to young and old, and every gentle
nature responded to the magic of his
honest verse.
Ho was a great lover of animals,
and was constantly malcing pots of
them. Ho was very fond of birds, but,
as he disliked to seo thorn cagod, ho
looked forward to the time when ho
could add to his new homo a good con
servatory, whero the birds might And
a homo and fly in and out. among tho
plauts. After he had onco become
attached to a pot of any kind, it was
exceedingly hard for him to give it up.
For several years he paid tho board of
two old dogs at a farm. Somo of his
friends thought this a foolish expense;
l)ut he said ho would not have- tho
dogs killed, as they had been faithful
to him in their younger days, and ho
did not believe in deserting old friends.
Several years ago a Jerusalem donkey
was given to the Field boys, and they
named it Don Cassar do Uucna. After
they became too old to drive with him,
it was a serious question what to do
with "Don." For some time lie was
boarded at a livery stable. His board
bill soon became quito a serious mat
ter. Hut Mr. Field would not have
him sold, for fear that tho children's
old comrade might fall into unkind
hands. At last a friend in Kentucky
offered a home for tho donkey, and
there ho is now, spending his last days
in luxurious easo on a blue-grass
farm. Martha Nelson Yenowinc, in

A Singular Form of Aloiiomniiln.
Thcro is a class of people, rational enough
In other respects, who are certainly mono
maniacs lu dosing themselves. They aro
constantly trying experiments upon their
stomachs, their bowels, their livers and
their kidneys with trashy nostrums. When
thoso organs arc really out of order, if they
would only use llostcttcr's S'oinnch Bitters,
thoy would, if not hopelessly lnsauo, per
ceive its superiority.
Only tho man who gives hoping for noth
ing again, who gives freely, without calcula

find his lovo returned to him. F. D.

As a democrat devoted to the principles and

Secretary Carlisle also t,cnt a tele
gram regretting his inability to bo

Gen. Palmer, ia accepting tho nomi
nation, said:
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen: You Rlvo mo
olhclal Information that delegates, represent
ing tho national democracy of 41 stiito, lately
usscmblcd In convention lu the city of Inulan
npolls, honored mo by designating mo tho na
tional democratic cundldato for tho presi
dency, and that tho convention associated with
mo in tho formal temporary leadership of that
groat historic party of tho United States, an
eminent citizen of Kentucky :i citizen distin
guished in arms, and us tho patriotic chief
magistrate of his and my own native common
wealth. I uoccpt tho unsought honor and re
sponsibility Imposed upon me by tho national
dcmocnt'Io convoutlon. I accept them as
proof thut my democratic follow-cttlzens ojn
tldo in my devotion to democratic principles
so clearly and" accurately dcllncd in tho
proceedings of tho convention. I havo
boon at all times controlled by my own convic
tions of duty, uud I havo now 119 ono whom I
can properly Invito to sharo my responsibili
ties. Taught by Jofforson, I opposed slavery
when It cxl.stod. Inspired by Jackson. I do
fendod the union of tho states to the extent of
my ability, unci influenced by his example,
when my conduct us a military officer was
challenged as violutlvo of law, 1 voluntarily
submitted, mysoJf to tho iurMle'ioa pr t'ho
civil courts. Whon go.-eriior of my aaoptocl
ctate, while I opposed, unit by peaceful means
successfully resisted, the Interference of tho
United States by its military forces, in tho
purely local concerns of tho state, I distinctly
conceded tho right, and assorted tho duty, of
that government to cuforco within tho state or
elsowhoro Us own laws by Its own ngonclos.
The matters to which I havo udvertod are
but reminiscences thoy rolate and belong to
tho past. Our duties us lovors of our country
are present, nnd wo must meet unci deal with
existing conditions, and to theso tho lute na
tional democratic convention addressed Itself.
Its platform asserts truths which can be dem
onstrated, and it correctly dollncs democratic
principles. It assorts that "tho democratic
party is pledged to equal and exact justice to
all men of every creed nnd condition: to tho
largest freedom of tho Individual, consistent
with good government; to tho preservation of
tho federal government in Its constitutional
vigor, and to tho support ot tho .states, In all
their just rights: to economy In tho public ex
penditures: to the maintenance of public faith,
and sound money: and It Is oppo3cd to pater
ullsm, und ull class legislation."
It also assorts that "tho declarations of tho
Chicago convention ultncU Individual freedom,
the right of private contract, the Independence
of tho judiciary, and tho authority of the pres
ident to enforce federal laws. They udvocuto
a reckless attempt to Increase tho price of sil
ver by legislation to tho debasement of our
monetary standard, and threaten unlimited Is
sues of paper monoy by tho government. They
abandon for republican allies, the democratic
cause of tariff reform, to court tho favor of
irrotccttonlsts to their Uscal heresy."
It then usserts, with earnestness nnd in
terms which will not satisfy thoso who assert
It, to bo "tho duty of a democrat to llrt vote
tho ticket and thou read tho platform: that In
view of these and other gravo departures from
democratic principles, wo Cannot support tho
candidates of that convention nor bo bound by
its acts." The convention hold in Indianapolis
then declares, with forco andv exactness, the
democratic doctrines with respect to taxation,
whether by tariffs, excises or by direct Impo
sition, und asserts that uono of theso cun bo
rightfully Imposod except for public purposes,
und not for private gain, und rculhrms tho his
toric democratic doctrlno of a "turlfl for reve
nuo only."
It Is then asserted by tho convention in its
declaration of principle thut tho experience
of mankind has shown that by roasan of their
natural qualities gold Is tho necessary money
of the largo nffahs of commerce und business,
whllo silver Is conveniently adapted to minor
transactions, and tho most bonellulal uso of
both togothor can bo Insured only by tho
adoption ot tho formor as a standard of mone
tary measure, and tho maintenance ot sliver at
a parity with gold by Its limited coinage under
suitable safeguards of law. Thus the largest
possible enjoyment of both metals Is gained,
with u value universally accepted throughout
tho world, which constitutes the only practical
bimetallic currency, nurlng tho most stable
staudard, und especially the best und safest
money for ull who cam their livelihood by la
bor or tho produce of husbandry. They tan
not huffer when paid the best monoy knowu to
man, but arc tho pouullur und most defenseless
victims of u debased und fluctuating currency
which offers continual profits to tho money
changor at their cost.
Accepting tholrclalm that under free coinage
tho dollar of silver would bocomo of equal ac
ceptability and value, und equal power In tho
markets, and In the payment of debts through
out the civilized world, tho silver dollar would
then bo ns difucult to procuro as tho dollar of
gold Is now, Thoy complain now thut tho dol
lar of gold has too muoh purchasing power nnd
Is too difficult to obtain.
Rut tho rouluxpostutlon of tho groat body of
supporters of tho free coinage of silver, and
0110 much moro lu harmony with tho experience
of mankind. Is., that tho unlimited colniigo of
silver would give to tho country a depreciated
und cheaper dollar, which would onhancn
nominal values and bo used In tho piymmt of
di'bts. but would bo attended and followed by
tho rum of all Industries, tho destruction of
prlvuto credit, and Irreparable mischiefs
Our platfouu commits us to tho maintenance
of tho democratic faith. Many of our asso
ciates, deluded by doceptHu sophistries, are
supporting a co'illtlou which disavows tho tra
ditional faith of tho democratic party. Tho
best that v. e can hope for thorn Is that thoy may
be iicfmt'"-i. and when dofratcil. tliav may ro

M'KINLEY QUOTES LINCOLN.
Stirring; Word to l'ciinn.vlvniilans Who
Visit ltlm nt 111 Home
A Inrge delegation of Pennsylvania
republicans visited Mnj. MeKlnley at his
home in Canton on Friday, September
11, nnd in response to the lienrty greet
ing of the people Jlr.MoKinley said:
"I bid tho Lincoln club of the city of Erie
welcome to my home. You bear tho met
honored namo in republican annals, nnd
none Is moro Illustrious In the annals of our
country a namo which belongn not to a
single city, a single state, to any aggrega
tion of clubs, but to tho whole American
people. It Is not the property of any politic
al party. It belongs to tho ages. (.Groat
applause. It is full of Inspirations nnd em
bodies overy republican doctrine ami rep
resents tho best alma and purposes of
American citizenship.
"I doubt if there is n y other namo In
American history which more fully typi
fies the possibilities nnd triumphs of Amer
ican opportunities than that of Abraham
Lincoln. Cheers. His life nnd onreer p'Jt
to shame tho false doctrines now so in
sidiously promulgated thnt there aro clans
divisions in tho United States. (Tremen
dous npplause nnd cries of 'Good.' Hum
ble of blith, surrounded by poverty, for"'."l
by circumstances to acquire unaided what
ever education ho had, ho forgco. his way
to tho front, reaching tho highest nlan'o
in the gift of a free people, und tho great
est place in tho world. IClront applauso
and cries of 'We'll put MeKlnley there,
too.'
"lie demoiiRtrated white lu ofllce wonder
ful ability and met every public exigency
In the most trying years In our history wl h
consummate sagacity and strength. It is
gratifying to us to know that on the groat
questions which arc dividing us this yeur
Mr. Lincoln Stood from tho beginning of
his curly manhood where wo stand to-day.
We huve the satisfaction of knowing that
in the present struggle we are close to him
and havo his approval of the great princi
ples wo advocate. rAppluuso. No man
has shown moro thorough knowledge of
tho tariff and Its Influence upon domestic
property than he.
"Korty-three yenrs ago he mnde an ad
dress upon tho subject of tariff and tax
ation and their effect upon the condition of
the country which 1 think has not been ex
celled by anybody before or since. It
Ic peculiarly applicable to tho present sit
uation: Lincoln said: 'The first of our
resolutions declares a tariff of duties up. in
foreign importations, productlug uuill
elcnt revenue lor tho support ot the gen
eral government and so adjusted us to
portect American Industries, to bo Indis
pensably necessary to the prosperity of the
American people; and the second declares
direct tuxatlon for national revenue to bo
improper.' Great applause.
"Listen to his description of the con
dition of the country at the time when ho
spoke, and how vividly It portrays tho
times In which we live: 'For several years
past tho revenues of the government h ivo
been imetitlfll lo its expenditure, and con
stquenliy loan uftor loan, sometimes di
rect and sometimes indlicct In form, havo
been resorted to, and by this moans a now
national debt has been created und Is still
growing on us with rapidity fearful to
contemplate a rapidity only reasonably to
be expected In time of war.'
"Von would tnink that Abraham Lin
coln wus describing tho three years from
1&D3 to IMG. Great applause. It Is any
wonder when the national convention m.t
In Chicago May 17, liCU the second national
assemblage of the great republican party
the following resolution waspusscd, which
is the same doctrlno which wo advocate
now'.'
" 'Resolved, That while providing revenue
for the support of the general government
by duties on Imports, sound policy requires
Mich an adjustment of theso linpotts as
to encourage tho development ol the in
dustrial Interests of the wholo country:
and we commend that policy of national
exchanges which secures to the woriting
mon liberal wages, to agriculture remun
erative prices, to mechanics and manu
facturers an adequate reward lor their
Hklll. labor and enterprise, and to the na
tion commercial prosperity und inde
pendence.' Tremendous cheering.
"Thut, my fellow citizens, was the Lin
coln platform of 1NX), nnd It Is the repub
lican platform of lSWI. Great cheers and
cries of 'That's right.'
"1 am glad to moot tho young men of tho
republican leugue of the state of Pennsyl
vania. There Is no surer safety for our In
stitutions than the manifestation of Intel
ligent and patriotic Interest by the yoi'iig
men of the United States. Amorleu is the
country of the greatest and freest oppor
tunity. "Wo have no hereditary ruleis, and
we will havo none. Appluuno and cries of
'That's right.' 1 We havo no privilege
class and wo will have none. Cheers nnd
cries of 'That's right, too.'
"Thero uro two great incentives to Amer
ican manhood the leall.atlon of the In
dividual ambition and patriotic devot'-n
to country. The more active and Intelli
gent tho participation of every citizen In
the affairs of state, the freer and purer
and greater will be the government. JRru
ull citizens uro Interested in the govern
ment, and hero represented In this great
assembly are men of every vocation ii'id
profession, but you ure here because you
ix'llovo alike, and hecnuso you do not want
free silver. Great cheering and cries of
'Hurrah for MeKlnley!'
"We do not delegate to anybody our right
to govern. We cannot delegate the right to
anybody. Tt is n sacred trust whlclrean
not be performed by a KUhstltute, but must
be done by each citizen for himself. In
difference to our duties ns citizens will in
evitably bo folowed by Incompetency u',d
corruption In public affairs. Thero Is no
higher evidence of true putiiotlsm than
hearty and earnest Interest lu the affairs
of the government with the object In view
of securing to all the people the greatest
possible uood.
"The discussion, such as wo are hav
ing now, and at last the sober, Intelligent
use of the ballot, Is the surest foundation
upon which our liintitutlons can rest and
takes tho places of revolution In despotic
government. Great applause. Thesouri'o
of all power Is from the pfople themselves.
That Is everywhere nccepted as the foun
dation of our political fabric.
"The republican party has always been
tho party of lofty purposes. It never had
1.11 aim from the llrst moment of its ex
istence until now which did not embrace
the common good of all, Loud uppluuse
and cries of "Hint's right.' It never touirht
a battle against liberty nnd equality. (Ap
plause. It never struck a blow except
for mankind. Applause. It was organ
ized In conscience. Great applause. No
political party has been formed since tl.o
beginning which appeals to tho Intelli
gence, enthusiasm and conscience of tho
young men and tho old men ns tho repub
lican party. Great applause and cries of
'That's right.'
"It never waged a contest in all Its irlor
loiis past whleji more strongly appeals to
the best sentiments and the noblest ulms
of both young and old as to-day. Its pirt
Is illustrious with great deeds, and it does
not stop with its past achievements It
does not rest its clalmH for confidence uuon
them nliino. It deals with the problems
nnd Issues of the day which are vital to tj
welfare of the country und maintains tho
loft;, purpose which bus characterized It
from the beginning. It stands for coun
try now, and will guard with sleepless vig
llanco Its honor as It guarded Its life In
tho mightiest crisis In our history C'heoni
and cries of 'You bet you will!'
"Gentlemen, for the assurance of sup
port tendoml me. I thank you one and all
most heartily, and with a full appreciation
of what you assurance menus KUhting
under tho banner of promotion to labor 'nd
home Industry, reciprocity, sound mor.ey,
