Several years ago a number of German workm;:i din.; to Connecticut by a pre concerted arrangement and obtained em ployment in the clock factories in New Haven, Ansonia, Waterbury, Thomaston, and Winsted. They worked steadily for a long time, applied themselves dilligent ly to mastering the science of clock-making, aud became proficient in the art of handling the tine tools necessary to the work. They also purchased the tools and seyeral of the complicated machines, and, returning to Germany, they also be gan the manufacture of clocks for them selves. They set up a factory in the Black forest region and their business now amounts, according to letters recent ly received here, to nearly 50,000 clocks a month. This German factory has proved a close competitor with the Con necticut concerns. Materials and labor are so much cheaper in Germany than in this country that they can beat us in the foreign markets and they are pushing their wares to the exclusion of the Yankees.

M. D. Polk, Chairman. R. S. Wilkinson, Secretary. Mi;. Cleveland, in addition to his fishery message, has subscribed f 10,000 towards electing himself. This shows the average democratic rustler that Grover Cleveland is not only a model civil service and revenue reformer but also, that he is an emminent statesman. As soon as that emminent literary office suck er, Mr. James Russell Lowell, learn of this disinterested stroke of statesmanship upon the part of Grover, he will probably revis ; his estimate of the man and com mission him as the greatest American "production," Lincoln and Washington coun'ed out. When a man after paying for a substitute, to go to the war, retaxes his patriotism by again going down into his jeans for wealth to purchase for him self the great office of president of tliese United States, he is nothing, if lie is not to be classed as a patriotic statesman. ', That noted temperance organization, known from away back, as the rock rib bed, copper bottomed, democratic party of Nebraska, is very much opposed to the idea of submitting "the liquor question" 10 a vote of the people. It is a great de fender of the dear people until it comes to the submitting the saloon to their con- sid ratien at the ballot box. Such a pro position is considered by the democratic party and the saloon keeper as amcnancc to republican institutions. 1CHRSIQ6 Vtlht f VmtnV Drestrs.

In an article on courage in The Fortnightly Review Lord Wolseley contradicts tho idea that little men are braver than big men. One of tho very bravest ho ever knew was 6 feet 4 inches. Among the nations he singles out Turkey with special praise for her fight ing qualities: "Among nil tho great armies of the world, none is conno.sed of a finer or braver fighting material than that of Tur key. Tho early life, tho training, laws, man ners, customs and, above all, tho religion of tho Turk combine to make him tho most for midable of soldiers." Now York Sun. Novel Form of Lifeboat.

Tho first iron made in New Jersey was at a place just south of Trenton, from the limo nite or bog oro that abounds in that section, and the first forgemaster was Governor Lewis Morris, who came to Monmouth from Barbadoes before tho 3'ear 1GS0. When tho revolution came on the iron men had grown skillful enough to make cannon and shells for the Continentals; also big shallow pans in which to evaporate sea water and supply salt when the foreign article was cut off. Chicago Herald. The Story Sot True. A French journal published for the pur pose of giving curious information has been investigating the story that during the Reign of Terror Mile, de Sombreuil was made to drink a glass of human blood as the price of her life, and asserts that this honored legend Is untrue. All the foundation there could be for it, the paper says, is that she probably was asked to drink a glass of wine to the health of the republic, and the hand of tho man who gave it to her might have been dripping with blood.

We hold a free and honest pop ular ballot and lux t and equal representation of all people t be the foundation of our re publican government aud demand effective legislation to secure the integrity and purity of elections w hich are the fountains of all pub lic authority. We charge that the present ad ministration and the democratic majority in congress owe their existence to the suppression of the ballot by the criminal nullification of the constitution and laws of the United States,' We are uncromproinisingly in favor of the American system of protection. We protest against the destruction proposed by the presl dent and his party. They serve the interests of Kurope WK WILL SUPPORT INTKKFSTS OF AMKBK'A. We accent the issue, and confidently appeal to the people for their judgment. The protective system must be maintained. Its abandonment has always been followed by general distatttT to all interests except those of the unnurer and sheriff. We denounce the Mills' bill as destructive to general business, labor, and the farming Inter ests of the country, and we heartily ndorj the consistent and patriotic action of the Aj nublican representatives in congress in oppos ing its passage. We condemn the proposition of the democratic party to place wool on ti e free list and insist, that the duties thereon shal be adjusted and maintained so as to fur nish full aud adequate protection to that Jn dutry. The republican party would effect all neerted reduction of the national revenue by repealing the taxes on tobacco, which are an arrogance and burden to agriculture, and the tax utxn spirits used in the arts and for mechanical pur poses, and by such revision of the tariff laws as will tend to check Imports ot such arti-iei as a e produced by our eople, the production of w inch gives employment to our labor, And 1e lease from import duties these articles of for eign production, except luxuries, the like of which cannot bt produced at home, there tball still remain a larger revenue than is requisite for the wants of government, of internal taxes rather than surrender any part of our protec tive system at the joint be fust of the whisky ring and agents of foreign manufacturers. '. AGAINST PAUrEK AND LAl'.OR TBUSTg. ; We declare hostility to the ii traduction into this country of foreign contract labor and of Chinese labor alien to our civilization and our constitution, aud we demand the rigid enforce ment of existing laws against it and favor such immediate legislation as will exclude such la bor from our shores. We declare our opposition to all comb I ua tions of capital organized in trusts or other wise to control arbitrarily the condition of trade among our citizens and we recommend o congress aud the state legislatures in their respective jurisdictions such legislation as will prevent the execution of all schemes to oppress the perple by undue charges on their supplies or by uuju-t rates for the transportation! of their products to inaiket. we approve legislation by congress to pre vent alike unjust burdens and unfair d.scriin iuatioii between states. 1-CBLIC LAND LEGISLATION. We reaffirm the nolicv of aonronriatincr the public lands of the Uhited States to be home steads for American citizens and settlers not aliens, which the republican party established in 182 against the peixiste.it opposition of the democrats in congress, which has brought our great western domain into magnificent de velopcment. Ihe restoration ot unearned land grants 10 i he public domain for the use of ac tual settlers, which was begun under the ad ministration of President Arthur should be continued. We deny that the democratic party has ever restored one acre to the people, but declare that by the joint action of republicans and democrats about fifty million acres of un earned lands, originally granted for the con struction of railroads, have been restored to the public domain in pursuance of conditions inserted by the republican party in the oiigin al grants. We charge f e democratic adminis tration with lailure to execute laws securing to settlers title to tlieii homesteads and with us ing appropriations made for that purpose to harrass innocent settlers with spies and prose cut ious under the false pretense of exposing frauds and vindicating the law. ' admission of territories, , The government by congress of the territor ies is based upon necessity only to t he end that they may become states in the union : there fore, whenever the conditions of population, material resources, public intelligence and morality are such as to insure stable local gov ernment therein the people of such territories should be permitted, a right Inherent in then, to foii.n for themselves constitutions and sts-te governments aud be ad itted into the union. Pending preparation for statehood all officers thereof should be selected troin bona fide resid nts and citizens of the territory wherein thev are to serve. South Dakota should ft right be immediately admitted as a state In the union under the constitution framed and adopted by her people and we heartilv en dorse the action of the republican senate in 1 twice passing nuis lor ner au puss ton. j pe re? fusal of the democratic house of representa fives, or partisan purposes, to favorably con sider these bills is a willful violation of the shj red American principle of local self-government, and merits the condemnation of all just men. The pending bills in the senate for acts to enable the neople of Wishington, North Dakota and Montauna temtories to form con stitu ions and establish state governments should be passed without unnecessary delay.' Ihe republican party pledges inself to do all in i's power to facilitate ihe admission of the ter ritories of New Mexico. Wyoming. Idaho and Arizona to the enjoyment of self-government as states.

The republican party is In favor of the use of both gold and silver as money, and con demns the policy ofthe democratic adminis tration in it efforts to demonetize silver. We demand the reduction of letter postage to 1 c-nt per ounce. ..., In a republic like ours, where the citizens Is the sovervign and the nfllcNl the servant where no power is exercised except by the will of the people. It Is Important that the sover eign reople should possess intelligence. The free school is the promoter of lhat intelligence wh ich is to preserve us a free nation. 1 hen fore, the state or nation, or both conbined. should support free institutions of learning sufficient to afford to every child growing up in the land the opportunity cf a good comnioii scl.ool education. OVB MERCHANT MARINE. We earnestly recommend that prompt action be taken in c.Bfiess in the ei actinent of such legislation as will best secure the rehabilita tion of our American merchant marine, and we protest against the passage by congress of a free ship bill as calculated to work lujuetice to labor by lessening the wages of those en- aged in preparing materials as well as those iiectly employed in our shipyards. e de mand appropriations for the r)y rebuilding of our navy, for the construction of coast fortifications and modern ordinance and other approved modern inea"s of defense for the protection of our defenseless harbors aud cities, for the payment of Just pensions to, our soldiers, for necessary works of national im portance in the improvement of the harbors and channels of luteriial. coastwiser and foreign commerce, for the encouragement of the shipping interests of the Atlantic, (inlf aud Pacific states as well as for the payment of the maturing public debt. This policy will give employment to our labor, activity to our various industries, increased security to our country, promote trade, open new aud direct markets for our products and cheapen the cost of transportation. We affirm this to be far better lor our country man tue ueiuoci-auc policy of loaning the government's money without interest to "pet banks." foreign relations. The conduct of foreign affairs by the present administration has been distinguished by inef ficiency and cowardice. Having withdrawn from the senate all pending tieailes effected by republican administrations for the removal of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our commeice aud for its extension into a better market. It has neither affected nor proposed any others in their stead. Professing adher ence to the Monroe doctrire. It has seen with Idle complacency the extension of foreign In fluence in Central America and of foreign trade everywhere among our neighbors. It has re fused to charter, sanction or encourage any American organizytion for constructing the Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal importance to the maintenance of the Monroe doctrine and of our national influence in Central and South America, and necessary fo the development of trde with our Pacific territory, with South America, and with the further coasts of the Pacific Ocean. FISHERIES QUESTION. We arraign the present democratic adminis tration for its weak aud unpatriotic treatment of the fisheries question, aud its pusillanimous surrender of all privileges to which our fishery vessels are entitled in Canadian ports under the treaty of 1K18, the reciprocate marin tine legislation of 1S30 and enmity of nations, and whicli Canadian fishing vessels receive in the ports of the United States. We con'Jemu the 1 olicy of the present administration and the democratic majority in congress towards our fisheries as unfriendly and conspiciously unpatriotic ana as tenuing to aestroy a vaiuaoie national industry and an indispeusible resource of defense against foreign enemy. The name of American applies alike to nil citizens of the repabli, and imposes upon men alike the same oMigatioii of obedience to the laws. At the same limecMzenship is and must, be the panoply and safeguard of him who weais It, should shield and protect him whether high or low, rich or poor, in all his civil rights. It should and must afford htm protection at home and follow and protect him abroad in whatever land he may be on a lawful errand. CIVIL SERVICE REFORM. The men who abandoned the republican par ty in 1884 and continue to adhere to the demo cratic party have deserted not only the cause of honest government, but of sound finance, of freedom and purity of the ballot, but espec ially have deserted the cause of reform In the civil service. We will not tail to keep our pledges because they have broken theirs, or because their candidate has broken his. We therefore repeat our declaration of iss4,towit : The reform of civil service auspiciously begun under republican administration should be completed by a further extension of th" reform system already established by law to all grades of the service to which it is applied. The spir it and purpose of reform should be observed in all executive appointments, and all laws at varience with the object of existing reform leg islation should be repealed, and that the dan gers to free institutions which lurk in the pow er "f official patronage may be wisely and ef fectively avoided. The gratitude of the nation to the defenders of the union cannot be assured except bv laws. The legislation of congress should conform to the pledges made by a loyal people, aud be so enlarged and extended as to prov'de against the possibility that any man who honorably wore the federal uniform shall becon e an In mate of an almshouse or dependent on i rivate charity. In the presence of an ovei flowing treasury it would b a public rcandal to do less for those whose valorous service preserved the goyernnient. We denounce the hostile spirit shown by President Cleveland in his numerous vetoes of measures for pension relief, aud the action of the democratic house of representa tives in refusing even consideration of general pension legislation. In support of the principles herewith enun ciated weinvitethe co operation of patriotic men of all parties, eappciaily f all working men ,vhase prosperity is seriously threatened by the free trade policy of the present admin istration.

The modes of death's approach are va rious, and statistics tliow conclusively that more persons die from disease of tho hroat aud lungs than any other. It is probable that everyone, without excep tion, receives vast numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system and where these germs fall upon suitable soil they start into life and develop, at first slowly and is shown by a slight tickling sensation in the throat and if allowed to continue their ravages they extend to the lungs produc ing Consumption and to the head, caus ing Catarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if allowed to continue will in time cause death. At the onset you must act with .promptness; allowing a cold to go without attention is dangerous and may loose you your life.
