Lord Ranpolph Churchill, who is picnicking in Africa, has written to a London paper detailing an adventure with lions, of which he was the hero. Tho story struck the London public as being absurd. The papers have "roast-ed" it, and the chorus of ridicule has been echoed from the variety stage. Lord RAifDOLPri will learn that i& Is kAyr'-'ti-f: fci ;s i? lacies of such propositions as that in-volved in the sub-treasur- y scheme, while the natural American antipathy to bath-boun- d politics is manifesting it-self. If the alliance should fall to pieces in the south, it will go to pieces in the west also. The western alliance men would scarcely hold together after their southern brethren should have de-serted, and if this should occur before '02, the democratic hope that the alli-ance will beat the republicans in some of the western states will be turned to dust and ashes. Senator Hampton may be prophesying a little too soon for the benefit of his party. Wade Hampton, whose political career was cut in two by the alliance, believes that that organization has about run its course, at least in the southern states.

"Judge S had been sick only about two weeks, and it was not until the last three or four days that the malady took a serious turn. At the beginning of his illness he suffered from diabetes and stomach disorder. Later the kidneys refused to perform their functions and he passed quietly awav. Thus ended the life of one of the most prominent men in Cali-fornia." Like thousands of others his un-timely death was the result of neglecting early symptoms of kidney disease. IF YOU ------- are troubled with diabetes, gravel, or any de-rangement of the kidneys or urinary organs, don't delay proper treatment until you are forced to give up your daily duties ; don't waste your money on worthless liniments and worse plasters, but strike at the seat of the disease at once by using the greatest of all known remedies, the celebrated Oregon Kid-ney Tea.

T1TURSDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1891. Yesterday witnessed more record-smash- ing events in the racing world. In the pacing race at Nashville between Hal Pointer and Direct, the California horse won three straight heats, the time of the second being 2:09. The Ten-nessea- ns went broke on the race; and it is not to be wondered at, for such speed is calculated to break something. The colored people of Oklahoma want one of their number, E. P. Mc-Cab- e, appointed to the governorship to succeed Steele. They evidently believe that 'people will never get any-thing if they do not ask for it, but it is aiming a little high to ask for the chief executive office of the territory. DEVELOPING THE SUGAR INDCSTRT. The people of Utah are familiar with the facts regarding the establishment of the sugar industry in this territory, and they realize that the bounty clause of the McKinlet law has made it possible for the business to be founded here. But it will be interesting to our readers to learn what the effect of that provision has been upon the old cane sugar industry of Louisiana. The Picayune, discussing the prospects of the sugar crop, sa3s: . "The opening of the sugar season is this year an event of much greater importance than ordi-nary because the bounty clause of the McKim-e- y tariff law will for the first time be put into practi-cal effect. Unfortunately adverse meteorological conditions, particularly protracted drought, have considerably marred the promise of the harvest, and it is said that not only is the cane late in ma-turing, but it is moreover unusually email and poorly developed. It is, therefore, not prob-able that the yield will come up to early ex-pectations, which is the more to be regretted because of the fact that the bounty system is to be put into active operation for the first time and it is highly desirable that a substantial development of the sugar industry should be shown. "There is no doubt but that in anticipation of the bounty payment planters had planted for a large crop and have greatly improved their factories and methods of cultivation. These im-provements may in a measure make up for the unfavorable weather conditions, and cause the shortage to be less than might have been the case had old methods both of cultivation and manu-facturing remained still in vogue." From this it would appear that the bounty provision has given the business of making sugar great stimuls in Lousiana. The planters not only put in larger crops, but they enlarged their factories and improved their plants. The extra efforts made will not bring about the desired results this year be-cause of the adverse weather con-ditions, but there can bo no doubt that the business will be increased in the future. The last congress evidently buildcd better than it knew when it made the bounty provision. The pur-pose was to prevent the ruin of the sugar business in Louisiana and to the prospective sorghum and beet sugar industries. The latter have sprung into life under the new law, and in the old cane sugar region a new spirit has taken hold of the business. THE PARTY FOR YOUNG MEN. To the young man there is no feature tf democratic principles, as portrayed by the history of that party during the last forty years, that commends the party to his judgment. When we study the history of the country from the time of the rise of the republican party to the present moment, we find that it is distinctly the party of true patriotism. There was one period dur-ing which the democratic party directly attacked the government and opposed every measure for its preservation, while at no time has that party been the exponent of any great patriotic principle. The history of the republi-can party, on the other hand, presents an unbroken record of devotion to the best interests of the country. Every-thing that has been done to build up this country during this period and to protect the rights and enlarge the op-portunities of its people, has been done by the republican party in the face of democratic opposition. . ., It i3 significant that the democrats Acknowledge the wisdom of all the irreat measures which have been en-acted by the republican party in the years gone by; but it is well to examine the record which shows that the de-mocracy bitterly opposed all those principles which they now admit to .have been correct. The republican party was as bitterly denounced ten, twenty, thirty years ago as it is to-day. The democrats have solemnly declared each succeeding year that the republicans were a menace to the country that republican measures were fraught with ruin to the republic. But as time has passed they have been compelled to shift their position and admit the wisdom of republican ideas. The old stor' is being repeated now. The democrats are vociferously claiming that they are right and that the republicans are wrong. They attack republican reciprocity, the sugar bounty law, the tin-plat- e tariff and all other protective tariffs, but in a very few years they will be seeking to claim credit for that same reciprocity policy, for the sugar bounty, for the tin-plat- e tariff and for every other good thing secured to the country by the republi-can party. There are some points upon which the democrats appeal for support that are not so immediately .connected with any recent legislation. They point to Jef-ferson' as their model; but there is only one thing that connects Jeffers-on with the democracy of recent times. Upon every point that great man agreed with the republicans of today, except-ing upon the dangerous doctrine of states' rights. His advocacy of this doctrine made him the idol of the dem-ocratic party during the days that pre-ceded the war, but since that doctrine has been destroyed there is very little of Jeffersonism that the democrats can claim. The democrats tell us that their party is the protection of the people against centralized power; but this is merely a claim without any foundation in fact. The greatest democrat that ever lived, Andrew Jackson, was the personifica-tion of personal, centralized govern-ment, and the greatest act that he ever performed as president, the suppression of nullification in South Carolina, was prompted by that feeling as much as by any other motive. He is entitled to all credit for patriotism, but with the 6trong drift of his party toward states' rights, it i3 not likely that he would have so summarily extinguished Calhocn's plan but for his unwillingness to brook interference with his authority. This spirit was again manifested when, in defiance of the will of congress, he destroyed the United States bank and brought on the panic and distress that followed that disaster, So there is nothing in the history of the democratic party to commend it to young men. Older men niny not be able to break away from their partisan allegiance, but no young man should join such an organization. The record of the republican party shows it has always been loyal and true, and it gives every assurance that the party can be depended upon to bo right in the future as it has in the past. Young men who are appealed to to join the democracy on such grounds as are urged against the republicans, should remember that the democracy has always sought to sustain itself by just such at-tacks upon republicanism, and that it has always proven to bo in the wrong. You who have not llrraly fixed your party allegiance, Thk Times would ask you to consider well before you deter-mine to turn your backs upon that party which has always been right, to walk into the embrace of the one which has been wrong in every emergency. SPIRIT OF THE PRESS. Can't They Tell the Truth ? New York Prese. Our free trade contemporaries are still un-willing to make a manly retraction of tbcif misrepresentations about "McKinlcy prices" by publishing the list of these price weich the fwi printed thirteen days ago. Really, gentlemen of the Evening Post, Times and fioston Herald, e are ashamed of you. You persistently asserted that the tariff raised the cost of the workinrman's neces-saries. The Press proved that blue shirting thnt cost ll cents per rard in October, 1SS0, a year before the McKinley bill was passed, costs uov only 9 cents. But you don't dare to print it. The Press proved that friurhams had been similarly, reduced from 10 cents to 8 cents. Evidently you are afrai 1 to print that, too. It showed that the workman's overalls whose average price was Tit cents one 'year ao, now cost him on an average less than 71 cents. Yet yon can't screw your courage up to an honest admis-sion of the fact. You have been raising a great cry about "wool." The ?-; showed that n excellent suit of woolen K)thing that cost the worker f 16.75 in October, 1S, now cost ; him but $14.25. You haven't pluck enough to face that one item. 'Why not be honest now? Does a cardinal princi-ple of the free trade propaganda prohibit your telling the truth about the tariff ? A Deliberate Deception. St Louis Globe Democrat. The controversy among New York Dem-ocrats regarding the meaning of the silver plank in their state platform has not closed yet, but it has gone far enough to prove that this utterance was a deliberate decep-tion, and that it was designed to be interpre-ted one wav in the neighborhood of New York and New England and the opposite way in the south aud west. American Muilt Ships. Kew York Mail and Expref. Ye men of the sea, don't forget that so long as you vote the democratic ticket you yote to keep the stars and stripes off the ocean. Vote the republican ticket for the upholding of otir merchant marine, and put-ting "old glory" over American-buil- t ships, and thus crowd out of thw ocean-carryin- g trade the enemies of our foreign trade and commerce. A General Block. Laramie Republican. Nebraska's railroads are all blocked up, owing to the shortage of grain cars, and the voices of the calamity politicians arc all blocked up, owing to the signs of prosperity that will not down. Nebraska will come out of the political woods this fall. The mining congress to be held in . Denver on November 18th is an assured success, and promises to be the greatest gathering of the kind ever witnessed. It will not only be a meeting of dele-gates, but thousands of miners and mining men from all sections will be in attendance. The railroads are arrang-ing special rates, and it is expected that the lines will be heavily patro-nized during the congress. The town of Aspen, for instance, talks of sending one thousand people. A number of the mining companies will permit all their men to go, allowing them full time during their absence. It is ex-pected that matters will be discussed which will be interesting and instruct-ive to all classes; and in addition the gathering will be a grand demonstra-- tion in favor of silver. Utah certainly should take a prominent part in the great event; and The Times hopes that a large delegation from this section will attend. The annexation sentiment in Canada seems to be spreading very rapidly.and it is causing the home government no little anxiety. The Salisbury ministry has recently given some indications that it would forcibly resist such a movement. Some troops, it is said, are to be sent into the Dominion, and government officials are reported to have declared that an English fleet would be put on the lakes if the United States should abrogate the treaty of 1817, under which the two governments are pledged not to keep armed vessels in those waters. If England really de-sires to put a damper on the annexa-tion idea, she should not contemplate any display of force. About the time the Canadians realized that they were to be coerced there would be a repeti-tion of the performance of '76. Postmaster General Wanamaker publishes ao article in the American Agriculturist in which he advocates a universal free delivery of mail. He calls attention to the fact that the ex-tension of the free delivery service has always led to an increase, of the postal revenues, and he expresses the belief that the proposed universal system would soon pay the greater part of the expense involved. Mr. Wanamaker points out the reasons why farmers should be given the benefit of such a service, and makes out a very strong case in favor of the plan. . The Chilean government has ad-mitted the right of asylum in foreign legations for political refugees, and has given Minister Egan a guaranty of safe conduct for those whom he has given protection. Mr. gan is coming out of that affair with flying colors. The people of the United States now realize that he has been looking after Ameri-can interests with the greatest vigor. A few months ago there was a disposi-tion to criticise him very severely, but that is all changed, and he now has the hearty support of the entire country. |
