DEMOCRACY AND BUSINESS IN
TERESTS.. Responding to the toast "The
Republican Party on Guard," at the
Ann Arbor banquet, Gen. Russell
A. Alger arraigned the democratic
party not only as a destructive,
anti-national organization, but as
equally opposed to the economic
welfare and prosperity of the
country. Gen. Alger is a good wit
ness to prove either proposition.
As a gallant Union soldier he had
many opportunities during his
prolonged army service to size up
southern democracy under its true
colors, and arrayed in the proper
uniform. Since the war, and in the
c ntrse of an extended and success
ful business experience, Gen. Alger
has often been called on to studj
the elfect of democratic policies on
the industries of the country, and
he finds that part' about as danger
ous in one capacity as the other.
The democratic party has never
succeeded in substituting a low
revenue tarilT for a protective one
and maintaining the same for ten
years without enormously reducing
the wages of labor, paralyzing great
industries and involving the coun
try in terrible distress. On each
and every occasion where it has
been able to carry out its tradition
al policy of "tarilT reform'' thecoun
try has been made to suffer dreadfully.
No intelligent democrat, familiar
with history and with a decent re
spect for truth, will claim that the
business interests of the north and
west have ever been able to with
stand ten years of democratic
"tarilT reform."
American workingmen of no
class have been able to preserve
their wages and employment unim
paired through so much as a single
decade of a democratic tariff for
revenue only. Such tariffs when
permitted to stand so as to work
out their legitimate result. lmvc
proved indeed that they were for
"revenue only," and with iiothingto
maintain wages or protect the
rights of labor. In no case has the
country prospered for ten years
under a democratic tariff. Disaster
has been the invariable result.
In strict justice it should be said
that there were two excepted class
es on whom the heav hand ot the
democratic tarilT reformers was not
lid in the way ot affliction. They
were the old slave-holders of the
Onoo a fowler, youtiK anrl artlcsa.

Eros, chuckling at the blunder,

"Master, hast thou ever heard
Of so ill disposed a bird?"
"Heard of him? Aha, most truly!"
Quoth the master with a smile;
"And thou, too, shall know him duly.
Thou art young, but bido awhile;
And old Eros will not fly
From thy presence by and by.

The Cobweb as it Styptic.
When Bottom was "translated" and
introduced to the attendants of Titania
he endeavored to ingratiate himself with
Good Master Cobweb by saying, "When
I cut my linger I will make bold with
you." To arrest bleeding the applica
tion of a cobweb to the wound has long
been a rural custom. Experience has
shown that the gossamer of which the
web is composed forms a very useful
styptic, but a very fatal objection to its
use -.rises from the fact that as an aD-
plic;. .ion to an open wound it can never
be guaranteed as surgically clean, form
ing as it does a net for insects and at
the same time for the germs of many an
imecuous uisease.
Evidence of this was produced before
the Liverpool coroner recently touching
the death of Martha Roberts, who, fol
lowing the time-honored custom, had
applied a cobweb to her wounded hand
to stop the bleeding. Blood poisoning
followed upon its application, and this
terminated, unhappily, in a fatal issue.
It is not a solitary case. The principles

Leaves Used for Paper.
Leaves of trees were used for writing
purposes very early by the Egyptians,
and probably by the Greeks. The Hin
doos continued the use of this material
until within a few centuries. Even at
the present time books of leaves are not
uncommon in the south of India and th
island of Ceylon. The leaves of some
Asiatic trees, from their size and smooth
ness, are admirably adapted for books.
If we may judge from the name "leaf"
being still applied to the paper of books,
we should imagine these leaves to have
been formerly the principal material in
use. New York World.
