what tne Jiniitcs are saying:
ion have nouiiuatecl Cleveland;
now elect him if you can."
T . . . . . . . ..
x iic question mat is now going
the round of the democratic paper
is. "Who in h 1 is Stevenson "
x r cannoi ne said that lioies is en
tirely disappointed, for he said he
would have the presidency or noth
ing, and he got nothing.
The democrats are working hard
to get the independents to nominate
Walter J. Greshem for president.
They realize that it is their only
hope of beating Harrison.
BECAUSE Gresham is a republican
and a man that is popular with the
masses of the people, the democrats
are praying for the independents to
nominate him for president, so that
they will have some show to elect
Grover Cleveland. Uut they should
remember that the good book says
that "The prayers of the wicked pre
vaileth not."
THE CHANCES OFTHE PARTIES.
Mr. Cleveland, as his frieirds tell
us, is to carry the country this year,
irrespective altogether of the atti
tude of New York. Let us examine
this proposition in the light of rea
son, mere win be 44 votes in the
next electoral college, and the party
which gets 223 of them will win.
It is prettv safe to say that the
great majority of the states this
year will vote as they usually did
in the past in presidential years.
The elections of 1800 made no per
manent change in the altitude of
any state toward the great parties.
This has been shown in such of the
states as have voted since that year.
11 is entirely saie, tnereiore, to say
r at
that the states here mentioned will
align themselves thus in the can
vass this year:

In this table the democrats are al
lowed all the states which Cleveland
carried in 1SS8, and five of the four
teen electoral votes of Michigan,
which state chooses all its electors
but two by congressional districts
this year, and the state has been di
vided up into two sections for the
choice of these two. The five elec
tors here given to the democrats is
a very liberal allowance. .In the
table every state is given to the re
publicans which they carried four
years ago except New York and In
diana add part of Michigan. All
the new state except Montana we are
putting in the republican column,
and that state we put in the doubt
ful list. This, we believe ever' rea
sonable democrat will concede, is a
pretty fair apportionment of the
states between the parties. It is to
be observed we allow Connecticut
and New Jersey to the democrats
and many democrats consider the
former a little shaky, while we are
not claiming West Virginia, which
was very close in 1883, and which is
beingplaced in the doubtful column
by the prophets this year.
Thus the republicans are reason
ably sure of 210 electoral votes and
the democrats 180. In order to win
the republicans have merely to gain
thirteen more of the iif ty-four which
are in the doubtful column, while
the democrats, to gain the victory,
would require forty-three votes. In
diana alone would give the republi
cans the'presidency and two votes
to spare, vhiic-4oth New York and
Indiana would have to be carried
by the democrat to put them in
power. New York and Montana
would leave them four votes short
oi the requisite number, while New
York and Indiana would give them
eight votes more than enough.' Both
New York and ' Indiana, it wilt be
seen, are absolutely essential to the
democracy, while Cleveland's dem
ocratic foes have been declaring
all along that he can not secure the
former state. Globe Democrat.
An Animated Morale Iteaervolr.
The Aust ralian lamprey has its prin
cipal habitat in the Murray river, and
sonsequently in thu dry seasons it is apt
to be imbedded beneath the hardened
clay, where no water ia. As the stream
recedes, the animal fills its ponch and
disappears into the soft mud below,
there to remain until the drought has
passed away, subsisting on the moisture
which it has learned to store in a special
ized receptacle at the 6ide of the head.
As a matter of fact, the fish has mas-
tered the difficult question of water stor
age on its own account before the race
of homo sapiens has been able to solve
the same problem in the island conti
nent. It is an interesting question whether
this Australian lamprey is not a linger
ing example of the fish of Miocene ages,
and as such may be considered as an an
cestral type of European lampreys. A
ea lamprey that 1 examined alive.
caught in the salmon nets of the -tidal
pstuary, had a dintinct tendency to
swell at either side of the head, as if the
pouch might be forthcoming in time of
actual necessity. If the Australian type
is not the absolute ancestor of the British
genera, it is at least reasonable to sup
pose that it is an older form, and that
the divergent genera and species have
descended along different lines in the
great life struggle. That the pouch of
the antipodean lamprey is intended for
the storage of water is a fact that can
hardly be doubted by any one who has
seen the species amid its peculiar sur-
roundings,

Stage Struck.
Two men met on a train going west.
They had known each other in the six
ties and resumed acquaintance with a
vim.
"An how's that bright boy of yours?"
asked the city man of his old time friend.
"Peart, peart as ever, pard. I were
goin to make a minister of him, but he
got stage struck and took to that line as
nat'ral as a duck does to water, an I had
to gin in. And he's the best shot in
Montany."
"Took to the stage, eh? And has he
been successful?"
"Successful? Well, I reckon he hez.
Why, their ain't a man can be named
in the same day with Bill. He kin drop
a grizzly in his tracks without ever
couiin down from his perch."
"What is his role?"
"Roll? I don't savey, pard."
"I mean what line is he in?"
"Oh, the Mounting an Valley line that
runs to (joochvuie through Catamount
Grove and Grizzly Hollow. 'Taint fun
all the time either, pard, when bandits
is layin low for yer money or yer life."
"Ah, he does the sensational on the
boards. I see. A low comedian."
Nothin low about Bill, ole friend.
He just sits up on the top of the Mon
tany stage an drives his four-in-hand as
easy as rollin off a log. Ez I said, the
6tage wuz right in his line, an he's a
thtmderin good driver." Detroit Free

The Baby and the Savage.
In the bone caves of the south of
France have been found figures of rein
deer, mammoths and men cut on horn
or ivory, and evidently executed by art
ists contemporary with the Elephas
primigenius. The men are represented
with short, bent legs, and seem to stand
or walk in a stooping manner, with the
lody bowed slightly forward from the
hips.
Now pass your hand down the back of
any infant under ten months old and
feel the spine at the loin or lumbar re
gion, where in the adult modern man
the back is hollow or concave. You will
observe that in the babe it is convex
like that of a quadruped (a ten-month-old
baby is practically a quadruped);
and though the child can, perhaps, get
on its legs with the support of a chair,
it does not straighten its thighs and
stand upright, but ia bent forward in the
same posture of the cave dweller, whose
portrait has come down to us from the
age just succeeding the last glacial
epoch. If the support is removed the
child falls forward and again becomes a
pseudo quadruped. Blackwood's Maga

A man entered a busy city office a few
weeks ago and asked permission to use
the telephone. He walked to the corner
pointed out by one of the clerks, looked
curiously at the instrument and after a
furtive glance toward the other occu
pants of the room took down the re
ceiver and gently whispered into it,
"Hullo."
A broad smile passed around the room,
and one of the younger clerks called out
in patronizing tones, "Oh, no, uncle;
hang up the tube, ring the bell on the
right, then put the tube to your ear and
talk to that little hole before you." .
The man obediently hung up the re
ceiver and turned toward the speaker.
'Thank you!" he said dryly, 1 am the
general inspector of this telephone line."
