NEWS AND VIEWS- The New York -Herald notes that the high tariff papers io Philadelphia are making money, and idds that one of them comes out with fifteen colamni of extra advertising all sheriff's 9alee. The New York Herald says that 'visitors to the World's Fair will have no diffi alty in recognizing .heir Stato buildings. All they have to do is to search for lome strocture which does not look like aLything ttiey ever saw before." Tl;e preeeDt campaign has brought t the front a great deal of good democratic oratory; hot the republi cans and thirdites have not been atile to find out whether they had any or not. From its conspicuous aSsence we should say "not.'' Gmver Cleveland sent the follow ing telegram to the President ex pressing sympathy for him in his yreat bereavement: ''Wasuigton, D. C. lo Benjamin Harrison, Executive Mansion: '4 haeten to assure you of my sin cere sympathy in the hoar of your terrible bereavement c (Signed.) '"Grovur Cleveland." The Progressive Farmer has been saying that In Hon. R. B. Glenn'.-, eanvass with Marion Butler he has absolutely refused to discaes tre issues of the campaign Mr. Glenn's speech here and elsewhere In Eastern Carolina proves how false are these statements of the Third party organ. Butler no doubt raised that cry around to keep Mr. Glenn fiom dis cussing hi?n. The people of the wnole country have felt great sympathy for the President in the death of his wife. Hi political fricas felt lo deeper sympathy for him than many of his political opponent. The heart of the American people is too big to be held within party prejudice when calamity or sorrow falls upon any one of its distinguished citizens. The "protective" idea has exploded in Homestead, Pa., the place of the great Carnegie riot. In a grand democratic rally there a few days ago, where there bad been many re publicans before there was practical ly unanimity for democracy. It was the work of the Pinkerton hueinea which changed things there. "Pro tection" did not protect the laborers; and strange to say. Weaver tritd o make Third party thunder at Rocky Mount out of the Homestead trouble. But Weaver and Lease are back numbers now. The Ogdensburg daily News of St. Lawrence county, New York has betn a republican organ for eleven year.-. It has turned from the republi can to the democratic partv; and s s that, inabmoch as Cleveland ha proved that he woala ratei be right than President aod Harri son has proved that he would rather be President than to be right, it will support Liieveland. St. Lawrence county is the banner republican couutv in the State oT I New York, and this tur-i of its re publican organ means raueti. Woo says New Y'ork is not all right ? look i iiin I'icai ici:.

Mrs. Harrison, wife of thn Presi dent, died ia the Wbit House in Washington oq the. morning of 25th of October, 1892, at 1:40. The Baltimore Sun elves tbe fol lowing concerning death in tbe White House : Mrs. Harrison's death is tbe second in which a President's wife baa died in tbe White-House. It ia a ntrange coincidence tliat most of the deaths that have occurred with in its walls were ot persons connect ed more or less remotely, personally or politically vltb the family of President Harrison. The first death was that ol Presi dent William Henry Harrison, which occurred on the morning of 4pril 4, 1841, just one mouth after his inuguration. The President ou that occasion went through the cere monies bareheaded in the midst of a driving storm. On the first of April he was compelled to take to bis bed and sent for a physician. But the oisease resit-ted all treatment, and at 12 :30 o'clock of the morning ol April 4th the President breathed his last. Mrs. Letitia Tyler, fint wife ol President Tyler, who was elected Vice-President ou the ticket with Gen. Harrison and succeeded him as Chief Executive, litd at the White House on the 10th of Sep tember the next year, 1842. During her brief stay in the executive man sion Mrs. Tyler was uuabl to dis charge the duties ot hostess, ner place being taken first by Mrs. Robert Tyler, her sou's wife, and later by Mrs Semple, her daughter. The third death was that of the President Zachary Taylor, who eu- tered the White House March 4, 1849. He lived ouly until July 9, 1850. His death was the result of exposure on tho 4th of July just previous, when he took part in the dedication of Washington's monu ment The weather was exceeding-! ly hot and the President drank freely oi ice water and partook of a large quntity of fruit. Immediately upon his return to the White House he was seized with an indisposition, from which be never recovered, but which was not believed to be of a fatal or even serious nature until the monng of his death. Willie Lincoln, second son of President Lincoln, died in the White House in February, 1862, at tbe time when ''Tad," the favored son of the martyred President, lay seriously ill. Mr. Lincoln said that the blow was tbe saddest experi euce of his life, and the hardest to be borne. Willie was twelve years old at the time ol his death. Frederick F. Dent, father of Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant, who was a mem oer of the presidential family from the time General Grant entered the White House, died there December 15, 1873. The last previous death within the portals of the Executive Man sion was the most romantic of all. It occurred at the New Year's re ception being held by President Arthur, Januaty 1, 1883, and threw a pall over the festivities of the oc casiou. Mr. Elisha H. Allen, mm ister to the United Stales fiom Hawaii aud deau ot the diplomatic jorps, was at tht bead of his asso ciates, making his way to the Presi dent to present the members of the legations v- ith their compliment, when he was smitteu with heart dieae. Falling to the floor, he was hurriedly borne into one ol the parlors, but never recovered c jnsciousness aud expired before medical aid could reach him I.I lilt tiiirlf hxpei i-ne I.lslitbouMe. in a Mr. and Mrs. Loren Trecottare keep ers of t lie- liov Lighthouse at Sand Beach Mich, and are blessed with a daughter, four years old, Last April she was tak en down with Measles, followed with a dreadful Cough and turning into a Fever.

Stroog resolutions were passed in Tammany Hall, as follows : '1 HE RESOLUTIONS ''To our brethren throughout the country we pledge such a decisive majority in this city for the Demo cratic candidates as will secure the electoral vote of this Stat? fnr Cleveland and Stevenson, for the pro motion of peace and goodwill amon the 6ectio: e, and for the commercial emancipation of the Industrial mans es of this country from the restric tions and oneroub burdens imposed upon them by Republican class legis lation ' Senator Hill ppoke and wtn ac corded aa ovation.

Ex-prenident Cleveland needs no eulogy at my hanrin. In life ar d public service uro familiar to tbe people.

His rt-election will not only be a personal triurno -, but it will he also the vindication of our principles aud the triunpb of ihe Democratic party." REFORM SPELLING State Chronicle. The advocates of a reform In spel ling baye generally been so ultra and revolutionary that they have not received popular support. The fol lowing demands are so moderate and sensible that we lay them before tbe public as likely to be granted at no distant day : "English spelling is the worst in tbe world. Millions of dollars are wasted each year in the writing and printing of your letters. The educa tion of our children id retarded and the progress of our people is bumper ed by our cumbrous, illogical, mis leading orthography. The scholar ship of the world is almost a oolt in demanding a change. The Atceri-. can Philological Association has rec ommended the following rules for new spelling, and a resolution has been introduced in Congress, in -tructing tbe Piblic Printer to con form to them in all printing for the government : 1. Drop ue at the end of words like dialogue, catalogue, etc., whe.'e the preceding vowel Is short. Thus speilinc demagog, epilog, synagog, etc. 2. Drop final e in such words ss definite, infinite, favorite, etc , where tbe preceding vowel is fchort. Thus p?ll opposit, preterit, hypocrit, etc. 3. Drop final te iu words like quartet'e, coquette, cigarette, etc. Thou eptll cigaret, roset, epaulet, ve dtt, gazet, etc. 4.
