President Dole's compliments to the ex-queen: The pen is mightier than the axe and chopping block. It would not be quite so bad if the democrats in congiess knew what they wanted to do and had the courage to do it. _j __ If pledges of demociatic senators can be relied upon the Cleveland tariff bill can never pass the senate in its present shape. _ _ _ Thebe is but one American Hawaiian policy, and that is not the one that Mr. Cleveland was compelled to reluctantly abandon._^_ An exchange says “the democratic party it on the road to ruin.” It would seem that it had already arrived, and that It had dragged the country along with it. Ho man is so blind as he that refutes to see. That is the kind of blindness Mr. Cleveland is exhibiting in insisting that congress shall carry out his policy of restoring queen Lil. Bo it was by mistake that Secretary Morton’s speeches were dead-headed through the malls as official business. There seems to have been several mis takes connected with Mr. Morton’s offi cial life. ' _ , The democrats in congress decided to separate the Income tax from the Cleve land tariff bill because of their fear that both would be defeated If they did not. Those having the welfare of the country at heart expect both to be defeated any f, way. ._ A tariff that would swipe the stuffing out of Yourtown and put a high duty on everything turned out in Mytown represents the views of many democrats and is about as near to practical com mon sense as the average democratic congressman ever gets, Liliuokalani is now open to Ameri can dime museum engagements. She guarantees to reproduce the cannibalis . tio stare, at every performance, which was on her face when she informed Minister Willis of her Intention to be r head the members of the provisional ' government. Democrats appear to have expected that "the tolling millions” all over the . " ‘ land would arise and “call them bles sed" for free wool, free pig iron and free coal and "taxed sugar.” But why this silence among the tollers? Has any body heard the shout?'Will they hear || It? That is the rub. • D.A. Wells, writing In the January Forum, from what figures are at hand . estimates that the aggregate loss pro duced by the panic and period of busl . uses paralysis already exceeds a thoua - and millions of dollars. A democratic * administration comes high bht the peo ple would have it Nbho fiddling while Rome burned t wasn't “in it" with the Indifference with :: ‘ which the wage-earners of the south see I'; themselves degraded by those they have , | elected to congress. Many of them re |; aliae that shackles will be placed upon them by the Cleveland tariff bill, but they lack the moral courage to publicly i. protest __ _ - “Tan figures of the cabin passengers . who landed In New York in 1898 do not Indicate that foreigners patronised the 1? World’s fair to an appreciable extent," |f agys the Sioux City Journal. “The total number landed was 128,000, and out of these it is estimated 100,000 were re turning Americans the remainder is de V, '. cldedly beggarly." . Nearly every democratic congress ' ' man of prominence who has spoken in - favor of the Cleveland tariff bill has . admitted that the bill would reduce v wages in this country and that it is in tended to do that very thing. If they ^ bad only been as frank before the last presidential election the countrv would have escaped much misery. Democrats were terribly anxious two years ago to havo Minister Egan re* called because be was “non persona grata." Well, how is it with Minister Willis, at Hawaii? Is it likely that the conspirator against the legalized govern ment is held in high favor .there? Call him home. The quicker the better. He .ought to have sense enough to take pas sage on the first ship that sails. Tun gall of the few democrats who have span oat find theories on the bene fits that are concealed in the Cleveland tariff bill, while ignoring the deplorable practical condition to which the country has been brought by even the prospect w-- of such a bill becoming a law, has never been equalled on the floor of the house. It was like a man telling a lot of people fef Suffering from the rigors of an arctic winter about a magic scheme to trans port them in a moment to realms of eternal summer, and was quite as con tr inning* , * V . “VC• . -'.Wv-:'vu ■ DEMOCRATIC PRATER. Tlie following prayer was recently made at a democratic convention out west. We publish it by request: Our almighty and all-powerful Cleve land, who art in Washington when not fishing; thou who art the father of Ruth and Ruth’s sister, and of Marin Ualpin’s boy, Oscar, and the godfather of the democratic party, (its father wouldn't own it if ho were here). We hail thy name as the great political prophet of the century. We bow down before thee in humble political obedience. When thou gayest go, we go; when thou sayest come, we come. We have no desire but to serve thee. If thou gayest black is white, we will swear to It and lick the cverlastin’stuffin' out of the man that disputes it. When thou takest snuff we will sneeze; when thou sayest tree silver we will echo thy words; when thou gay est gpld, then gold It is. We are all democrats after the Improved modern type. Our business is to vote the ticket and vote 'er straight. What is it to us whether we have free silver or not? We are but dogs that eat the crumbs that fall from our master’s table. When the crumbs fall we wag our tails; when they don't fall we stand and wait until they do. This is democracy. This is the kind of democracy that elected thee, our great and almighty Cleveland. Oh, most adored master, we love thee for what thou hast not done for us. We love thee because thou art Cleveland. We humbly surrender ourselves to thee. Do with us as thou wilt. Though wheat is but 40c a bushel, we love thee; though cotton is low, we love the; though busi ness is dull we love thee; thousands, millions, are out of employment, still we love thee; though our children are clothed in rags, we love thee; though our wife, the dear companion of our i bosom, is scantily dressed and looks so shabby she cannot go to church, we love thee; though we are sinking deeper into debt. and poverty is knocking at the door and hunger is staring us in the face we love thee still. This shows'our great faith and love for thee. Our wives and children are willing to sacrifice, even as thr Hindoo mother sacrifices..her off spring by throwing it^under the crushing wheels of the Juggernaut. Oh, mighty Cleveland, words cannot express our love for thee. We love our party too. What care we abbut the many promises made? We know it promised free sil ver, but we lied when we said it. We thought that we had some manhood about us but we aint. We have ho in dependence. Thou, oh, mighty Cleve land, hast all the manhood and inde pendence in the party. We are fools, liars, lickspittles, mudsills. We haye no business to want anything or to say any thing. Last year we favored free silver, and now we have to oppose it. We favored it then because we thought it was right. We oppose it now, most adored master, because thou tellest us to. Aint we a honey of of the first water? Did ever dog serve his master more faithfully? Did ever dog get less for it? Oh, mighty master, we are ever ready to serve thee and party. All the pay we ask is to be patted on the back by some local politician and called a good democrat. We aint got any sense We don’t want any, only enough to vote the ticket. It don’t take any sense to be a good democrat. What a joyful thought I We don’t have to worry. Our work is all mapped out for us. All that is expected is to do what we are told to do. We thank thee, oh Cleveland, that we ate democrats. We thank thee for the panic. We thank thee for the idle men and women in the land. We thank thee for low prices. We thank thee for the banka that have busted and the thousands of business failures since thou hast come into^iower. We thank thee for the hard times. We thank thee tor the clothes our wife needs and can’t get. We thank thee for what thou bast done for the banker and what thou hast not done for the people. We thank thee for all these things because it is our duty as good democrats to do so. It may be against the grain, but we will take our medicine. We will work our wives to death, starve out children, sacrifice our homes, crucify liberty, and kill property, but will never go back on our dear old party, and on thee.our most adored Cleveland. Thqu art more account than all of us put together. Thou knowest more than the South and the West. Call ns fools; spit in our faces, wipe your feet on us, we will love thee all the more. And now, our great political father, we leave us in thy care. Do with us as thou wilt. Pitch silver into the middle of the nelt century; give more privileges to the national banks; foster trusts; bribe congressmen with patron age; fish whenever thou carest to, and we will indorse everything thou doest, carry Cleveland roosters, campaign torches, and forever sing thy piaise. Amen t . The tbe democratic policy of revenue only has been turned into appeal “ob, for a revenue.” ——--— In a letter to W. S. Griffith, of Tur ner, Senator Mandereon, in speaking of tbe Wilson bill, says: “It is a measure that I believe is fraught with much mischief to the best interests of tbe country and calculated particularly to injure the agricultural west. I cer tainly propose to do everything in my power to defeat it, and expect to vote for an amendment which shall retain the present duty on wool.” Mi. : The tortures of dyspepsia, the suffer* tugs of scrofula, the agonizing itch and pain of salt rheum, the disagreeable symptoms of catarrh, are removed ,by Mood’s sarsaparilla.
