DIC AD H1 IiiukM the Record ol tlie Last tlonsi ews Will Break the l.ar- v i-oMiiuii oi tun i'ress- Thxuiiou and the Torcc Kill "MobUule." Washington Star, Congressman Boution McMil lin speaks in the warmest terms ot the New York State Demo cratic convention, which he at tended. It was immense in size, he nays, and splendid as regards tne personnel of the members. It was a very great gathering oi emnusiastic uemocracy. air. dorsement of Mr. Flower. Mr. Sheehan, and the other Demo cratic nominees. "1 think," said the Tennessee Congrewsmau to a Post reporter an ine .metropolitan yesterday, "that the election in New York will result in a great Democratic victory, aew Vork is a Dem ocratic state, to begin with. It elected a Democratic legislature anu a majority of Congressional Representatives last fall. The wave has not turned back. The nominations are strong. The State, too, is with the Demo cracy on tne tariff, force bill. prodigality, and other issues of tin last and this campaign. In addition to this the people of New York are very much wrought up over the loss of the World's Fair, which they lav at tne door ot air. riatt and 31r, Fassett. I believe this will loss Mr. Fassett many votes. There is no doubt that the determina tion of these other Eastern Re publicans to carry the Fair a- way ironic ew oric naa mucn to do with the defeat of that . . . a. a a a city in the contest. "Whatdovou think of the Republican boast of the defec tion in Brooklyn?" "The Brooklyn Democrats. Hugh McLaughlin and all the others, are loyal Democrats. Their candidate. Mavor C'haidn. I know, and he is both a scholar and a gentleman His people were very loyal to him, Jut .Mr. McLaughlin told Mr. Flower, immediately after the latter's nomination, that Brooklyn would roll up a greater Demo cratic majority than ever. He voiced the sentiment of his dele gation, and any calculations based on defection in Brooklyn win lead to delusion. Hie Demo crats there will stand bv the ticket. In addition to all these. the effort of the last Congress, which was ina measure suc cessful, through the McKinleyl bin, to destroy the commence upon which New lork and Brooklyn so lartrclv dcnend. will be rebuked. The increase of taxation imposed by that bill, and the restrictions it placed upon trade, will cause many New York Republicans to vot the Democratic ticket, eswei- ally in the cities 1 have named." loiicernimr the Sneakershin Mr. McMillin would say but lit tle, lie is willing to let his Iriends do all the talking on that subject. Of the outlook for Democratic success gener ally, the Tennessee Congress m,tu talked enthusiastically, and he hud a vast array of facts mid ligurcs at his tongue and tingvrs' ends as the reasons for lua faith. "Tim Democracy will be suc cessful this fall and in ".'2." said he. "The situation could not be more favorable for our party. M'line give you some of the many reasons upon which 1 base thin statement. First, the Democratic party was more triumphant last lull than ever before in its history, and it was a triumph that had no parallel in the ioliticn! annuals of this country . That victory wa won when the liues were closely drawn and the issues more clearly made than they had been heretofore, and its fur-reacbing effect on the destinies of the Dciuocratie party cannot tie whistled down the wind by the airy persiilaged of Republican stump speakers. That revolu tion against political blunder, ing and prosperity-wrecking iHriiiiciatiH resulted in the Dem ocratic party electing a large majority of the governors of Mates, gaining a part of the I luted Mutes Senate, and get ting the greatest majority it ever had in the House. This was accomplished, it must be remembered, when the Repub licans held every branch of the Government the Supreme Court, the Senate, the House, and the Presidential chair, and when we had, therefore, to as sault every stronghold and had no allies. We carried the coun try, counting results in the Congressional districts, by more than half a million majority. "Another reason for my opin ion is that the press, that great educator and moider of public sentiment, is wita tne .Democ racy more solidly than . it has been in half a century. In aU most every city the majority of the great dalies is either Demo cratic outright or independent with Demooratic ideas of gov. eminent. In many of the States there is no such thing as a lie publican daily paper. To illu strate: In New York city it is estimated that about a million three hundred thousand copies of newspapers are issued daily. Less than ' four hundred thous and of them are Republican. The others are either Demo cratic or Independent, and are vigorous in their opposition to force at the polls and the unnecessary- restrictions on com merce Again, it has been proved, over and over again that the educators in our col leges' are with the Democracy as never before. Therefore it is not an exaggerated 'assertion thatjno party can long lire when opposed by the great majority of these printing and educating influences.; i "But aside from these, the re cord of the: lat Congress is a dead weignt lor tne Kepubli cans. It broke their party last fall, ana will do it again in '92. That Congress was the most reckless and prodigal ever seen. It spent more than a billion dol lars two-thirds of all the Unit ed States money in existence. It was not the case of one prod igal son, but that ot a whole family prodigal. Are you sur prised at .hard times when by reason of these expenditures one-third of all the money in this country, and more than half tnat in actual circulation, has to pass through the hands of a Federal tax-gatherer every year? This condition of things is not consistent with prosperi ty. To make the people believe to the contrary a scheming, un scrupulous Secretary of the treasury is resorting to the plans of the fakir, the juggler, the cueai, anu ine nignwayman, and by cunning-cooked debt statements and bulldozing cir culars to bondholders is trying to patch up the great hole in the armor of Republican integrity. But the lance ot Democratic honesty has already pierced those patches and the public can see and is seeing what a grand old fraud the grand old party is. "the demand of the beonie for tax reduction was met by the last Congress in an increase of tht! rate of duty from forty odd per cent, to 00 per cent. The necessaries of like Buffered and the luxuries were lightly touched. It is ominous that Sherman, the Nestor, and Mc kinley, the Ajax of protection, are now trying to evade the tariff issue and to shift the dis cussion to silver anything to escape the issue. It is also ominous that almost the only part of the McKinley bill either lauded or defended without equivocation is its free trade or reciprocity feature. If Mc Kinley and Sherman will not defend the new tariff who will do so? If they flee what dough ty soldier will stand? "Nor is thisall. The effort of last Congress to take the elec tions of Congressmen from the people of the States and deliver tham to the Federal courts aud other Federal powers to use troops and marshals at the polls for bulldozing purposes must damage the Republican party How, for illustration, can Maj. McKinley in his camuaign for the governorship ot Uhio allow to tell the icople that he favor ed taking away from them the right to control their elections, and for the governor, one of his greatest prerogatives, the right to certify the result? And while on this subject let me say that the grandest tight for the right in the history of journal ism was that of the Washing ton l'ost agains the obnoxious force bill. It was a tight bril liantly conducted on all lines by editorial, by cartoon, in prose aud verse, and with those keen shafts of invective and wit for which the l'ost is now famous the country over. I have heard the Tost highly praised it every section of the country where I have been for its work during tho last Congress in opposition to Lodge's abortion, but I do not really believe that the peo ple yet fully realize what a debt ot gratitude tney owe your pa per. You are magn ificently and truly independent, you have a great and a unique field, and you are filling it: you have a great paper, great in its news-gather- irs laciiines anu great in me ability with which it handles them, and you fully deserve the gratifying prosperity tnat nas been yours in recent years." ?In compulsion, Mr. McMillin spoke at some length on the last Congress, which, he said, were obnoxious to the people and would be a great factor in the defeat of the Republicans in the f utvre. "Mob rule in legislation," said he, "I am glad to say, is not popular with American. How Old is an Old MairtV When does a maiden become an old maid? Ah, there's the rub! If somebody will deter mine this point the social world will feel a shock of relief and then go whirling on more smoothly than ever. You who have never been old maids, and never will be, have no idea of the worry a certain class of women endure. As they ap proach the thirty-year-old period they begin to get nervous and show signs of impatience. They will not admit that they are scared, but their eagerness to attract attention and the earn estness with which they discuss matrimonial and kindred topics it is quite apparent that they are merely whistling to keep their courage up. If they only knew that worry and anxiety bring wrinkles, irritate the nerves and disturb the circulation, they would try to be calm. Nervous ness ages them more than hard work, while disturbed circula tion is a sure destroyer of good complexion. It used to be thought that a girl had lost her best opportunities if she were net married before reaching the age of twenty-one, but that notion has been effectually up set. She may sail along safely until she is thirty, and if she doesn't fret and worry herself into a fright, she can even go several years longer without being branded with the obnoii ous letters, O. M. There are old maids who haven't seen twenty summers, and there are maidens who have seen forty winters who are not old maids. It is a condition of heart and mind rather than a question of years. The records show that a very large majority of American women marry between the ages of twenty and thirty, with more over the latter age than under the former. With foreigners it is different. The women marry anywhere from fourteen to twenty. Hungarians and Pole, are given to early marriagess Old men marry young bits of girls, but old womeu rarely young laborer men. ihe Hungarian . . . wants a wife to heip....,ll(1I1I1i. !,.., , - him make u living, and he wants her to be strong and healthy.

There is no doubt that the dark continent, which is rapidly being parceled out among the nations of Europe for commercial purintses, is sadly in need of proper mission ary effort and negroes appear to be best fitted for the work and while it is scarcely prob able that Bishop Turner's ex pectations will be realized in full, a great deal may be ac complished by proper effort to wards the improvement of the numerous races which inhabit that vast portion of the globe.

Scarcely a day passes with out its newspaper story of some young women who met a man so interesting that she thought she couldn't live without him. so she married him in haste and afterward learned that he was an ex-convict or a brute or already had a wife or two from whom he had separated without the for mality of a legal divorce. In such rases the blame is laid upon the man, who gener ally deserves more abuse th in he gets. But, girls, look at the matter seriously a few minutes and see if the trouble might not have been avoided u you had not been in too much of a hurry.
