Ix case the Itcpublican ticket this fall in

Decatur county must be afflicted with
a durth of men and a paucity of ideas ,

GERMANY has been annexing some
African coast. It is reported to lap sev
eral hundred miles over English annex
ations of previous date. The adjust
ment of these claims may yet lead to
troubleIt is the evident'desirc of Bis
marck to provide a place where his dis
satisfied people may go and still not be
entirely out of the power of the govern
ment. He is uneasy and alarmed at the
steady emigration of the bone and sinew
of the empire to the United States , and
there is little doubt but the experiment
of German colonization will be entered
upon on a large scale. In this the old
man will make a mistake. The sturdy
German colonist will prove a thrifty
person. He will draw on the home gov
ernment for everything that he can get
out of it , and when he gets ready will
set up shop for himself.
PARTIES are essential to freedom.
Party conventions are neccessary to the
life of parties. They are the courts of
political chancery , whose decisions are
also essential , and should be duly re
spected except when they are made in
the interest of the few and against that
of the many. Caucusses arc the instru
ments by which the voters of the party
make known their wishes both as to the
principles and measures to be adopted
and the men who shall be the candi
dates. They should therefore be as sa
credly guarded as the polls , and the
electors should attend them in their
own interests. To bolt is to abandon
the party and thus far is a crime
against the party. The best thing to be
done to get the right candidates is for
the voters to attend to business at the
caucusscs. Gazette-Journal.

senator of the United States and of
Bhode Island , died at his residcnce ,
number 5 , Benevolent street , at 1:45
this afternoon , at the age of sixty-nine
years , five months and one day. He
was in more than usual health yester
day , having spent hours in the Journal
office and manifesting his usual cheer
ful mood , when not oppressed by pain
and weakness of his chronic disease.
He passed a comfortable night and took
breakfast about 10 o'clock a. m. , with a
good appetite. Shortly afterwards he
was observed as growing pale and was
attacked by a uremic convulsion , from
which he did not recover and passed
away at 1:45.

After reading and partially digesting

ORLEANS was disturbed , last week ,
over a sad case of infanticide , which
occurred in that burg , the first of the

is Nora Freeland or llykart , cook at the

THE idea that a fusion between the
democrats and greenbackcrs of lowawil
make Iowa a doubtful state is absurd on
its face. Iowa since 18G8 has never giv
en less than 50,000 icpublican majority
in a presidential campaign. In 1872 i
was 58,149 ; in 1S7G it was 50,171 ; and
in 1880 Garficld's plurality was 78,059
Last year , notwithstanding the fact tha
the prohibition fight had unsettled the
parties in Iowa , Governor Sherman was
elected by a plurality of 25,089. One
might as well expect Missouri to go re
publican as to think that Iowa will go
democratic in a presidential year.
THE red man is not wanting in shrewd
ness and prevision. He looketh out foi

desired to enlist the Caughnawaga In

go and fight for their great grandmother ,
the queen. All they asked \vas a guaran
tee that none of them would be killed.
So far a bond to that effeot has not been
duly signed and it is possible that El

few red men for the glory of Allah , \vill
be disappointed. Journal.
A CHICAGO court has decided that
IVilbur F. Store } ' , proprietor of the Chicago
cage Times , is a { 'distracted person. "
Translated this means that Mr. Storey's
mind is completely gone , and the evi
dence shows that he is as little conscious
of what is passing around him as an
nfant would be. The old business man-
nger of the Times. A. L. Patterson , has
) een appointed conservator of the es
tate , and this is considered the begin
ning of a course of litigation not soon
to have an end. If the Times property
Iocs not come out of it a "distracted"
concern it will be very strange indeed.

A MICHIGAN female physician has
found the cause of many divorces to be
tobacco. She reasons that tobacco af
fects the sympathetic nerves which con
trol the heart ; that these nerves become
paralyzed , and the husband is estranged
from his wife. Now , this physician is
ivrong about the wa } ' in which tobacco
causes estrangement and divorce. The
real reason is that tobacco causes a man
to give out from his pores and lungs a
nasty odor. This odor affects the nerves
jf the wife's nose and she loses her tem
per and twits the old man about being
i beast. He makes ugly remarks in
reply , and she loses her love for him
md becomes estranged from him , and
ic deserves it , too. How a woman can
narry a man who reeks of tobacco and
urn , or how , having married him , she
: an live under the same roof , passes
: omprehension and can only ba account-
id for on the ground that "women are
lerned curious critters. " Topics. '
THK high license system is working
very satisfactorily in Illinois. Belorc
| tlie Harper fa\r went into effect Illinois
( had 13,000 saloons. This number has
been'reduced to 9,000 , nearly one-thirds
including the worst places , having been
closed up. In Chicago there has been a
decrease of 550 saloons. The average
license , before the passage of the Har
per bill , was $52 , and the revenue to
the .state . amounted to
nearly § 4,000-
000. The present license is not less
than $500 , and in some places more , and
the revenue amounts to more than $ ] . -

prohibition , which means no license , no
revenue , but free whisky and no respon
sibility. 13ee.

unseemly craving of graveyard report

a dead comrade lying beside him he is
justified in eating his flesh if he thinks
it will save his life. And when he has
done it he is not proud of it and the
best thing people can do who have nev
