Clarkson is coming back froir Europe right in the midst of the hot weather to push along the or ganization of republican club?. There is u lesson in-this for some of the slow moving democrats, who have not yet perceived the impor tance of this club movement in its bearings upo.i the great fight of; next year, There are a great many more reasons for blaming the republican party for the misery of the farmers of the country for - several years past than there are for thanking it for the exceptionally good crops of the present year.

Jefferson Davis has consen ted to the removal of the re uains of her husband to Richmond, Va., the capital of the Confeeracy ;She has written a most excellent '.letter upon the subject. The mon ument which will be erected to his :honor will be one of the finest in ,this country. The South will hon ,pr itself in thus honoring him. ;It is a remarkable fact that the business failures for the past six .months of this year are far in ex- ..cess of the failures for the same .period last year. There was a cry .w len the large surplus was horded ,.u 3 in the treasury of the Govern ment about the scarcity of money. : To-day there is a deficit in the , treasury and the busine s' failures :are greater aud mouey is really scarcer. The tight times in money '.matters a:e not due to the scarcity ,of money, but to the legislation in regard to it. Reduce the tariff and let the money stay in the hands of ,those who earnit instead of rob bing the people and giving it cut jUnder the disguise of pensions. was directly responsible for the bad condition of the farmers, which the good crops that a knd and dis criminating Providence has now given them will only partially al leviate. Of course every intelli gent farmer knows these things as well as we do, but the republican claim of credit for the good crops causes us to print it. ; The fact that Senator Gorman, whose superb management won the only national democratic vic tory during the past thirty years (barriug the election of Tildeu in '76), has taken advisory charge of the various state campaigns, in hist capacity of actiug chairman of the National Committee during the absence in Europe of Senator IBrice, chairman of that committee, is of itself enough to cause every dem ocrat to feel encouraged as to re sults this year. Seuator Gonnam has no superior as a political man ager, and he has expressed him self as being determined to do his level best to win everywhere the democrats have a fighting chance The men who so easily discov ered Columbus' first landing place .for a Chicago newspaper should at ,once be put on the track of Marsh, .the Philadelphia absconder. What the wild waves of the At lantic are' saying these days to Mr. .Harrison isn't'probably half as in iteresting as what Mr. Harrison said to Mr. Wanamaker about his ..cotfnea.ion with the wrecked Key . stone bank.. The Prince of Wales, whose rov- .al nephew, Emperor William of ..Germany, is sow vi-sit.ng him, will .prqbibly initiate the Kaiser into jthe mysteries of baccarat before ;he returns to Germany, that is, if .Matin Vic. has not -prohibited it. The republicans appear to be -placing more dependence upon the .Vvlrr mirt 4-1. . -1 " iiia.11 upon meir recora or .arguments, to help them out of the :iole in Ohio and Iowa this year. This isn't the first time the repub lican party has had the audacity to .claim the credit for good crops. Every man who -uts a tin roof ;ptl his house is given a practical .demonstration of the beauties of .republican legislation by having to pay J 1 .00 a box more for his roof--ingtiu than was charged before the' .,tm schedule of the McKinly bill swent into effect Ask your tinner .if this isn't straight. Postmaster General Wanama .ker's business with the wrecked keystone bank of Philadelphia tmay ha.ve been perfectly honest :and legitimate, but it is verv tin. ortunate for him and for the ad ministration that it should require SO many explanations.
