They talk about the Democratic party not being competent to admin ister the affairs of this government! Surclv. it does not lie in the mouth of any Republican to say so. All the world knows that during the four years of Cleveland's first administra tion the national tuupiccs were m first-class condition, the only prob lem in connection therewith being what todo with the surplus. So great had this become that Mr. Cleveland in 1SS7 sent to Congress his famous message demanding that the taxing' laws of the country be changed so that the money not needed by the government should be left in the ! pockets of the people. The Treasury ' was bursting with the accumulated I money, tor winch there was no leg'.t I iinate use. and when Mr. Cleveland 'retired. March 4. ISSll. he left in the i vaults more than tiiu.uuu.unn. Turn to the history of four years later and what do we tind? Mr. Harrison is going out and Mr. Cleve land coining hi again. The si'iU.uun. Olil is all gone and the Treasury bankrupt. There were claims against it. due and undisputed, to the amount of .s.'iil.uuu.liuu. and on the very day that he retired from otlice Secretary Foster declined to issue a draft for ' ?2.UUU.UUU "m payment of an overdue account, for the reason that there was no money with which to pay it. Three months before this time Secre tary Foster, in the last report he made to Congress, had told that body that the Treasury was empty and advised that bonds be issued and sold iti order to replenish it. Meantime the McKinley taritf bill had been passed a bill which, while largely increasing the burdens ,,f if,,, people was yielding a constantly di minishing revenue. Meantime, also, the billion dollar Congress had mul tiplied oltices and increased the fixed charges of the government to the amount of jC0.iM)(.0ui to s-7.").UH0.uU() per year, leaving this permanent annual increase iu expenditures to i be provided for by subsequent Con gresses. This was the financial situation which confronted the Democratic party when it returned to power Marah 4. 1 ,-!:. The first thing it did was to stop spending money for silver to lie stored away and not used to repeal the silver purchase law, another inheritance from a lie publican Congress. Next it ad dressed itself to the reduction of ex penses and cut of s2s.uuil.iinu. and last it passed a by no means perfect taritf bill but one which will save 2." cents on the dollar to the people in their store purchases and at the same time bring to the government enough revenue to support it. Omitting details this is the record and the facts herein stated are be yond contradiction. We submit them to the people and upon them ask judgment as to which of the parties is the more capable of administering the government. Many Democrats may not like, do not like, many things their President and Congress have ; done: do not like it because thev iave not done other things that thev think should have been done; but while Democrats niav. if thev will. critiei-e Cleveland and Congress, no Republican who undertakes to defend his own party can, with any sort of consistency, pass criticism upon the Demociaev.

That kind hasn't come yet. and so 1 shall brfish up my old ones for the occasion. Xobody is going to look at me nohow, for there are to be ten beautiful brides- ! maids and as many groomsmen, and a church full of witnesses and the wedding march is to be played, and I could just drop out of it and never be missed. But I did buy my wife a siik wedding dress and she is as proud as she was at sweet sixteen, when she stood up by me with her Augusta clothes on. She didn't have but one bridesmaid, either, and there wasn't much fuss made over it. There were no presents at all. but a few days after we went to house keeping seven likely darkeys came tramping up to the house -and sat down on the front steps until I came from the store. My pretty young wife was sitting at the window pre tending 1o sew. She had. a mischiev ous smile on h'-r face as I stopped in front of the smiling darkies. "What are you all doing here." said I. "What have you come after, Tip--you and Mary and all?" And Tip said: "Old master sont us up here to Miss Octavy and she h down hen- twell vou come us to sot Old mas- ter tole us we all b'long to you and Miss Octavy now." Well. I never felt as helpless in my life. What to do with them I didn't know. 1 hail no plantation and no negro houses and it never occurred to me that I could hire them out. So after con sultation uie and mv wife r mv wife and 1 sent them all back except Tit and Mary and begged the old gentle man to keep them until later. lit enjoyed the joke and said he only wanted to make a delivery of them, for they had long declared that when Miss Octavy got married thev were ' "gw ine wid her."

The honeymoon is the first month after marriage, and it closes about the time the young man quits calling his wife honey.

Most of the trade reports show that there has leen gradual and healthful improvement in business throughout the month. It has been slower in some lines than in others, but it has been Wry general. The resumption of industrial output that has been encouraged by the brighter trade prospect has been fo rapid that even the renewal of a normal demand has not strengthened prices, except in a few departments. Hut 'the volume of business has lcen steadily en larging', as shown by increased pay ments through banks, and by com parisons of railroad earnings for freight transportation as distinguish ed from passenger receipts, which were unusually large a year ago on account of the heavy travel to and from the World's Fair. Current re ports indicate a moderate slackening of new demand for textile fabrics, which is a usual feature of the fall season pending the absorption by consumers of the first purchases of retailers. The distribution on account of back orders is large, however, and a steady improvement in retail trade foreshadows an early renewal of or ders to the mil Shipments of boots i and shoes from Eastern centres have been "ill per cent, larger than they were in September last year, and slightly in excess of the heavy move ment ii the fall of 1S'.I2. Merchan dise exMrts are comparatively small, and so far as reported this month ports at that ort by 4.724,4(Mt. The failures during the past week throughout the United States and Canada aggregated against HCT j last year. !
