' In a speech recently delivered before some Democratic club in New York Senator Hill pleaded that Democrats get together, and declared that it was the duty of all good Democrats to yield to the majority and to co operate with the majority for the success of the party and for the com mon good. Ia thus counselling Sen ' ator Hill spoke like a true and loyal Democrat, but he forgot that in the course he pursued ia the Senate on the tariff question he set an example of insubordination,; and showed a contempt for party discipline in striking contrast to the declarations made in that speech. i It is no excuse to say. that in one --case he acted as a Senator, while in the other he spoke simply as a mem ber of the party to which he belongs, for if discipline be not binding upon a Senator when in accordance! with the usages of the party the party speaks then it is binding upon no one. If this discipline may be" ig nored in one case and by one Demo crat it may be ignored in all cases and by any. Democrat wfio wants to ig nore it. It is the misfortune of the Demo cratic party, perhaps, that certain men within its ranks "claim the right because they hail from a certain sec tion or from a certain State which has been one of the pivotal $tates to dictate the policy of the party and insist that the sentiments of the ma jority shall conform to the real or alleged sentiment of that section or those States. This is tht fact which has been growing more and more prominent year afttr year iintil now it looms up in such colossal propor tions that no one can fail to see it. Mr. Hiil aligned himself with the Republicans in the Senate infighting the income tax and after its adop tion aligned himself with the ob structive contingent of the Republi can Senators in the effort to prevent its enforcement. He did this be cause he prolessed to believe that the passage and enforcement of the income tax provision - would j make New York a Republican State. lor the same reasons Democratic Senators and Representatives from Eastern States have been antago nizing the majority of the party on the financial question because they feared that the, policy advocated by the majority would prove detri- mental to the Democratic party in those States. This course has been so determinedly and so persistently pursued that the opinion has become prevalent outside ; of those States that on the essential questions which; now divide the parties the Eastern Democracy stands a g'ood ded closer1 to the Republican party than It does to ; the Democratic party, and this teeiing augurs no good to the Demo cratic party in the futnre. While the tariff question was be fore the country that was an issue that absorbed attention, and for the time being subordinated other quesi lions, but that being now practically out of lhe way the financial question looms up and with that the silver question as the most exciting factor in it. There was a time when that jquestion could have been side uacKca ana made a matter of minor importance, but that time has gone by, and silver will now be the issue between the parties, the factor of more dissension in the Democratic party, and dissension in the Demo cratic party means the opportunity of the Republican party, which has no dissensions in it, and no factions on public questions, but stands solid and united under cool headed, crafty, able and alert leadership. j ' If whet the extraordinary session of Congress was convened to repeal the. Sherman act the Democratic Representatives and Senators from the South and the West had de manded tne repeal of the State bank tax as a preliminary to supporting the repeal of the Sherman law they might have been successful, have sheared the repeal, which would have opened the way for the establish ment of State banks in those States which needed more money than they bad in circulation, and this would have at once relegated the silver question to a subordinate position. and prevented it from ever more be mg an exciting factor in our national politics. That was the course the Star ad vocated then, and if it bad been fol lowed there would either have been no repeal of the Sherman purchase clause, or we would now have State banks, little or no financial agitation, and there would have been no such Waterloo as overwLelmed the Dem ocratic party in the last election, and no need now of counselling harmony in the ranks, for the ranks would be united and solid.. i In the next National Democratic Convention we will find two factions more pronounced than they have ever bee and more aggressive than they have ever been, one insisting net simply upon bi metallism and a parity between the different kinds of money of the Government, but upon the free coinage of silver, and the other opposed to it. Neither of these factions will yield to the other; both will itruggle to have its way! one or the other will be disappointed, and one or the other will come out of that Convention dissatisfied and re bellious. i As matters are running now. this 5 is the way the outcome looks to us, and we confess it isn't a1 very cheer ful one; but it is better to look things squarely in the face and not deceive ourselves. There were glorious op portunities before the Democratic leaders, but they could not or would not grasp them. We have paid part of the penalty of blundering folly, and may pay more. KIN Ofi MENTION. One thing has been demonstrated by the financial discussion which has engaged the attention of the U. S. Senate more or less for several days and that is how nfuch the Senators do not kno w about the actual condi tion of the country or of the! Treas ury. U.e benator asserts that there is no deficiency, and no danger of a deficiency, but a comfortable surplus over and above the actual needs of the Crovernment for current expenses. He makes this statement, he says, after a conversation with the Secre tary of the Treasury, who so assured him. Another asserts as positively that the Government is on the briok of bankruptcy and the only thing which can save it and its honor is prompt action for relief by Congress, while others, who seem to be bewildered by these con tradictory statements, offer resolu tions asking the Secretary of the Treasury to tell the Senate just how the Treasury is situated, whether it is long of short; whether it is in need of help, and if so, how much; if he wants Congress to do anything, and if so, just what he would j like to have. All the Senators may not understand the mode of keeping books in the Treasury, nor be able to understand the monthly statements it sends out, but it seems to! us that as close as they are to the Treasury and with the opportunities they have for gaining desired information they could keep well enough posted to in telligently discuss a question as to whether the Government needs more money than it has or not. f " . I It is a matter of some congratula tion to the people of this State, and also a matter of some dollars and cents, that the Fusion cc-mbine in the Legislature was floored in the matter of the public printing. Un der the previous Democratic admin istration the printing was put up and given to the lowest responsible bid der, but when the combiners got down to work they concluded that they would dispense with the bid ding process, and let the Legisla ture deal it out to political hench men as a reward for services ren dered. That was the programme, but the Democrats made it so hot that the Populists, who had been proclaiming for economy with open mouth, couldn't stand; it when brought to the rack, and forced to admit their insincerity and inconsis tency or retreat. The j result was they backed down, and (when thev backed down some of the Republi cans who knew they could't carry the thing through without Populist as sistance backed down too, and the outcome is that the public printing will go to the lowest responsible bid- der unless some swindling is done in the manipulating of the I bids. But be this as it may the people of the btate are indebted to the Democrats in the Legislature for breaking ud war. jod, ana forcing the jobbers to abandon it. The army worm comes in occa sionally, and helps to keep down the cotton output, but it dbesn't come often enough, nor stay long enough when it comes. But the United States Department of Agriculture' re ports the presence in Texas of an importation from Mexico which may prove more effective as a croD re ducer than the army worm, one that may do its work too well, and that win not move on and disappear as the army worm does. Tbis is a weevil which bores into the cotton boll and destroys it, and which seems to be spreading with rapidity in that portion of Texas where jit has ap peared, with some danger that if pro per steps be not taken tol get rid of it, it may eventually spread! throu gh out the cotton belt. With such crops of cotton as are now being made, Texas can stand considerable rav aging' by this' insect and. -not De much hurt, but every year of its presence makes it - .that much the worse, until it may become a very destructive pest. CURRENT COMMENT. . - As the bankers are not con tent to let the gold stay in the Trea sury after the President increases the supply by ordering a t ond issue, pro bably a change of diet would help them to let the Treasury alone. Try feeding them on silver dollars. Augusta Chronicle yDem. Southern farmers may as well make up their minds that if the out put of cotton this year is not mate rially reduced, they must prepare to get three cents per pound for what they have to sell next winter. The Liverpool buyers do not believe a word you say about acreage reduc tion and are already placing their bets that cotton can be bought a year from now at that figure. Mobile Register, Detri.

LET THE HUNTER DON GAY COLORS. It Lessens the Chances of Somebody Tak ing a Shot at Sim. "You would naturally think that the hunter out for game would wear clothes of soft, unobtrusive colors harmonizing with the landscape, " said the veteran sportsman. "Yet, stalking moose and deer in the Maine woods, I select ap parel pronounced-in hue and often wear a red necktie or hatband. This "I do to lessen the danger of being shot through mistake. "Of the great army of hunters that each fall range the woods of the Fine Tree State there are few that will not sometimes venture a shot into moving bushes on the chances that the invisible object that rustles them may be a deer. The fool sportsman, who is largely in evidence in the shooting season, will do so every time. If it be a man in the bushes, any striking colors of his cos tume are apt to catch the eye of the one preparing to fire and prevent the shot being fired. .. "The danger of alarming game by such costume? That is not enough to be taken into account. Everything strik ing in color is more likely than not to excite their curiosity and draw them toward the hunter if he work with prop er slowness and caution. Besides that all the antlered game trust almost wholly to their senses of hearing and smelling to warn them of the approach of danger, and if yon can baffle those faculties you need have little fear of their taking alarm from the sight of yon. "But, speaking of costume, don't wear black, else every ninny, and even some experienced sportsman, seeing you among the trees, would let drive at you, believing he was going to bag a bear." New York Sun. Scotch Terma and Customs. Everybody knows that the word man (pronounced in Gaelio maohk) means son, bo that, for example, MacDonald literally means the son of Donald. But it is not generally known that when a woman is spoken of the highlanders substitute for mac the feminine nich, which meana daughter; that the voca tive of mac ia vichk (we spell phonet ically), which always replaces mao when a person is addressed, and that the nominative plural is miohk (sons) or clann (children). Sir Walter Scott's ignorance of Gaelio frequently led him into error upon these points, both in his poetry and in his novels. The meaning of the Gaelio word clan, as just stated, is children, and the obe dience which clansmen owed to their chief was considered by them rather as the affectionate obedience due by Chil dren to a father than as that due by sub jects to a ruler. They believed them selves to be all blood relations descend ed from a common ancestor, of which their chief was the living representa tive. The clansman who hesitated to save his chief's life at the expense of his own was regarded as a coward who fled from his father's side in the hour of periL On the other hand, the chief was expected at all times to acknowl edge the meanest of his clan as his re lation and to shake hands with him wherever they might happen to meet Subordinate to the chief and generally related to him were the chieftains.- and tacksmen.

For economy and evenness of heat' put only a little coal on the fire at a time. Keep the lamps filled, trimmed and clean in every part to obtain the best re sults. i The term "ventilation" is not by any means synonymous with a dangerous draft of air pouring into an apartment. Systematic care of the lamps is bettor than all the patent "fixings" ever invent ed as a means of securing good light. A good hot air furnace gives the best means for warming the ordinary home. A poor apparatus gives the poorest results. Tbe ideal temperature in a livintr for healthy adults is 65 degrees. For small children it should be at least five degrees warmer.

Slumber Begins at the Feet, and the Senses j . Become Dormant One After Another. I - "Order is, heaven's j first law, " and I the old truth is manifested even in the process of going to sleep. When a man j drops off to sleep, his body does not do! so all at once, so to speak. Some senses I become dormant before others and al ways in the same order. As he becomes ! V drowsy the eyes close, and "the sense of; seeing is at rest; It is quickly followed by the disappearance of the Sense of taste. - He next loses the sense of smell, i and then after a short interval the tym panum becomes insensible to sound, or j rather the nerveswhich run to the brain j iron) it iau io arouse any sense or near ing. The last sense to leave is that of I touch, and in some hypersensitive, petT- M pie it is hardly ever dormaruV-rEven in their case, however, therels no discrim inating powercir6cnBe of what touched them. This sense is also the first to re turn upon awakening. Then hearing fol- j lows suit, after that taste, and. then the eye becomes able to flash impressions back to tho brain. The sense of smell;! oddly enough, though it is by no means the first to go, is the last to como back.; The same gradual loss of power is obv served in the muscles and sinews as well as in the senses. Slumber begins I at the feet and slowly spreads, up the j limbs and trunk until it reaches the! brain, when unconsciousness is complete : and the whole body is at rest. This is why sleep is impossible when the feet: are cold. New York World. A Great Help. . "Books that have helped me?" said an eminent citizen. "Books that have helped me?
