He was a Democrat, and believed that the war was for the preservation 01 xne U U1UU ttUtl buav "lu"vi - mander of the army, he insisted that this should be kept in view: He re refused to urge a crusade for negroes or cotton, respected the property and rights : of the Southerners agamst whom he fought, and no plunder and no smoking ruins marked the line Of his march. He fought the South, but he fought as a soldier of duty, hon orably and chivalrously with nobit- . terness and no 'enmity :; towards the people whose armies he confronted, and was ever ready to-, recognize the brotherhood and extend the hand of ' fellowship when the fight was over and the battle decided. Had such men as he remained in command of , the armies the outrages and vandal ism that marked the progress of s the armies would never have, been a par f tha historv of that struggle. : - Judge Foraker says in his. speeches that the depression in business is due to the election tf a Democratic Pres ident at the last election, ana cites as proof where some i factories in Ohio "have suspended. ., ; Some oil wejls in Pennsylvania ; hays, also suspended 'because x the flow of oil suspended, which is also, frpnv FbrakeVs logic, to be attributed to the fact that we have a Democratic 'Administration now at Washmgton. . .Foraker must imagine that the people he addresses Vfr trrr "tf nalm off such 'stuff as this on them for sensed 7 . ... . - - : r' r i 4 ,r, - The regular - Democracy scored a virtorv in the municipal election in Baltimore "' Wednesday,. electing Hodges mayor over crown, xu&uvmsb, bj majority, of about 2,000.

There' are 315,000,000 bread con sumers in Europe. If each one should eat half a bushel more next year than 4 last the difference would -amount to 157,000,000 bushels. If, then, the times of depression in Europe "should pass so that the mass could; afford to eat all they needed, the difference in demand might absorb all our surplus at good prices. ' .
