The finances of this country have been so handled for the past four jcars, that the interest on the public debt i.s $11,750,000 les per annum tha-n it ras when Harrison was inauguiutfd. Thu liut-ine.ss men of the country are eatisfied. Thlrty years aj?o the inltiala "C. S." were impopular as standing lor "Confedérate States." This year they will bc but little better in popular favor, and will have the same fate, for now "O. S." stands for the democratie ticket, Cleveland-Stevenson. Mr. Flori&n Grosjean, who is at the hea.d of a large manufacturing fiompainy at Woodliaven, N.

Toni B&etj'e latfst point is this: "The democratie party is never on the defensive. It has done nothing during the last generación to defend."

The republicans were victorious in Maine Monda y , eleeting governor by 11,000 majority, all four of the meml:c]-s of tmifiTews; two-thirds of the me-mtoöPB of the legfelature, and carrylng tourteen of the sixteen counties, sind that too, In face of the fact that the TOte was 12,000 less than in lsss. Tlie old republican raUying cry: "Have yon lieard from Maine?" still lvolds good. Thte adds another to the l'oag list of republican victories of 1892, to be crowned in November by a great victory in the nation. John Greenleaf Whittier, the Amerieaaa poet, noted for his sturdy manhood and kltdne of heart, died at Hampton Fitlls, N. H., last Wednesrtay morniiig, aged 85 years.

Tlie general position of aífairs in this country is an eminently satis'acto-ry one. In almost every brañeh of lmhistry, production is in full and íealthy Bvring.

Tast week was a great republican week all along the line. First came Peck's report showing the aüvance of wviges in New York under the McKinley Wil, then President Harrison's nagnificent letter of acceptance - one of the mowt statessman-like papers ever isemed. This was folloived by one from Iïlaine, with its charaeteristic sledge-hammer blows for reciprocity, protection and honest money. Kight atonff with these was ex-Senator T. C. Platt's interview wherein he pledged hls loj-al support of the ticket. Then, to cap the climax, came the great republican majority oí over 20,000 in Yermont. All these things a-re great factOire for victory this year and b1kw which way the wind is blowing. It will be a gale in November. After reading the resolutions passed by the so-called democratie colored club of Ypsilanti, stating that "the democratie party is the only party founded upou the immortal declaration of iudependence, etc, we turned to an article written by Judge Tcrargee, in Whleh ho had compiled statistlca relative to the murders oí colored people in the south, and find that these murders average over one e-erjT diay in the year. That is the democratie idea oi the declaration of independence, is it? If a colorad man is acemsed of an öifense in any southern state, they never stop to inquire into liis guilt or innocence, but they Uil liim on the spot. ■Nto forcé bilí, no negro doininatioji" If the. colored people think that tlieir interests lie with the party that kills and hunts thair people as they would liunt thO wild beaats oí the forest, tnere is nothing to prevent thein írom committing that sort of politk-al .suicide.
