business In the long run of life among his fellow citizens, by political treachery. hero comes not moro than one time in a mans natural life, when ho is Justified In changing his political relations. Ho who bobs about from one party to another, lice a weather cock, builds for himself the reputation of either a weakling or a trickster. Disappointed political ambition Is tho most cankering and deadly poison that can enter the human soul. The man who Is most worthy of political pre ferment, will gr as a general rule, in spito of himself, all his enemies, He who is not worthy, will not, as a general rulo, get it.

no matter how deep he may sink in political treachery and crime to ob tain it. About tho meanest man, is a causlcss political traitor. The most mis erable man in tho world is he who sells his politics to the opposition for a small office and then fails to get the office. olltical trators, whether large or small, are seldom blessed with success, And, when they once make the mistake, if not followed by speedy rcpcntcnce, they become objects of suspicion, and wear out a miserable life, alternating of hope and revenge, without character or steadfast friends. The political highway of the nation is strewn with political skeletons and mummies, who have died the ignoble deaths cursed by treachery, or lingered miserable lives of disappointed ambition.

Horace Greeley stood next to the thresh- hold of the presidency in tho long column of American statesmen, but in an evil hour he allowed the canker of jealousy to enter his soul. He became a democrat and died ot a broken heart. Geo. Julian, the great anti-slavery radical, who might have filled the presi dential chair years ago, imagined the re publican party not large enough for himself and the intellectual giant Oliver P. Morton.

As he could not put Morton out. ho went out himself, and has ever since lived a political mummy on the outskirts of Ihe democratic party, without friends or sympathy. John M. Palmer, once the great general and honored Republican Governor, thought he ought to outrank a Logan or a Grant. The people did not think so.

He sold his birthright in the republican party for a mess of democratic pottage, but has never yet tasted the pottage, and never will. Gen. Palmer's days were numbered when he proved treacherous to the party that made him. B. Gratz Brown of Missouri, who had been a lending Republican U.

S. Senator, hoping for no higher place in the party, sold himself to tho democrats for the vice-presidential nomination with Greeley. He failed of course, died the death, and is now forgotten except as the old gentleman who ate his water mcllon buttered. And so these miserable failures of great men, brought about by disappointed ambition, might be followed ad libitum. But whether of great men or small, political treachery is political death.

Whenever a man gets to bobbing about, and his neighbors say he is not reliable, he is doomed and his political death is near. HO! FOR BONNER, SPRINGS. Federation Picnic.

Keifer. Tho Sheffield (England) public mooting to protest against the McKinley Bill, was very largo, containing as many as 70,000 people, No doubt tho cutlery manufacturers of the United States, in tho same numbers, would be willing to meet and ndorse tho bill; and if they should, which meeting would be right? Mr. Blaine has written a very remark. able letter to Hon. W.

P. Fryo, a U. S. Senator from Maine, in which he takes the position very strongly and argues it with great force, that our Government ought not to. abolish the tariff duty on sugar, for the reason that the Spanish Government discriminates against American flour, and that we ought not to open our ports to free sugar for the immense crops of that article that are raised on the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico, while these, discriminations against American goods exist.

Be that as it may, on the plain question of tariff for revenue and encouragement to American productions, we are still in favor of frco sugar; but the question of reciprocity and forced protec tion to our foreign trade is quite another question. Mr. Blaine knows more about tariff, than any other American statesman and we shall wait with a degree of interest to see the outcome of this question, in the new phase in which Mr. Blaine places it, Now, if our neighbor of tho Blado were not a sly old fox, he would at once pitch in and answer our question as to whether ho is opposed to the repeal of the duty on sugar; but this letter of Mr. Blaincs, will embarrass him worse than ever.

If he indorses Mr Blaine and says as Mr. Blaine does "keep the duty on sugar" then the republican party and congress may in dorse Mr. Blaine also. In that case Mr Cross would be in the republican party, and that would ruin him forever. No, the Blade will still not answer.

It must be very gratifying to all loyal men to sec the change of sentiment now coming over the south. The Reunion at Chattanooga where ten thousand ex-con federates marched under the stars and stripes only, and where not a fool speech was made, was a grand success; and will do much towards awakening a better feel ing of loyalty to the Government through out the South. Now in addition to this. Henry Waterson of the Louisville Courier Journal seems determined to atone for the past, by a sturdy loyally to the stars and stripes that is worthy of commendation and adulation. Hear what he says.

It is beautiful and inspiriting GOD IHiESS THE FLAG. The masses of the North rallied to the flag. The masses of the South never quite warmed to the stars and bars, nor was there at anv time durina the war any deep seated hostile feeling against the stars and stribes among the confederate soldiers, The "Bonnie Blue Flag" was a poor tingle, The only spirit stirring song we had was nivln nnrl too ort that from fitmstv's minstrels, a nortuen troupe, rue trutn is, tho Union had the music and the colors on us. as well as the numbers, and the North, at least, ought to be proud of us, that with such odds of muscle and sentiment against us we stood out so long. Happily we have the flag back again; that flair wh ch never floated over a mean or cowardly action; whose history is an unbroken story of patriotism and valor, and which, as it spreads itself to tho battle and the breeze, to the sunshine and the storm, tells to heaven and earth as plainly ns words could tell, the origin and genius of our great republic, God bless the flag! Tho South was never so fortunate as when she found herself once moro encircled by its folds, drawn at AppomBttox by the hands of a far-seeing, magnanimous and bravo man.
