The old hero is light' ing death with the same iron will with which he fought the enemies of the government, but as he remarked a few days since WI have not the boys in line to back me cow." TIM doctors nay the end is liable to come at any minute. •GTThe excitement In Canada over the rebellion <»f Rlel and lit* follower* in Manitoba continues, ami Is greutly increased "by rumors of contemplated raids by Fenians, in sympathy with the rebellion. One minor, probably greatly exagemted. IK that Niagara, Detroit and St. Lawrence rivers will soon be crossed simultaneously, and th&t the breaking up of winter will find 10,000 to 30,000 Fenians a'oJQg the Dominion border. It was re-toned from Montreal on Monday tluit a pri- yate telegram says tliat all the Sioux Indians in the Canadian North-west territories have arisen, that settlers are fieel.-ig for their lives from all parts of the country, suffering greatly In their flight from cold weather and deep snows, and that the rebellion is spreading over a greatly enlarged ter­ ritory. Troops are hastening to the rescue. The Washington Capital, Speak­ ing of the reception st the. White House on the I4th nit.. says: "Still later Mrs. John A. Lojjfan entere 1 and, true to herself as «he always >8, and has been always, stopped, chatted wiili the ladles a few moments, tht^n going Ibsck of the line WHS the center of friendly gr »ups for some time. There was no trace of disappointment, no trace of anxious waiting and weeks of suspense in her bright. ' handsome, honest face. All had been leftfoutslde, and, unsflflsh, womanly, and her very presence in the bim; room was in * fleet like suushine and gladness." Mrs. Logan is undoubtedly one of the 'most skilled diplomatists in Am«ri;an politics, as she is one of the brightest woman.--DeKalb Chronicle. MF>The Armour Packing Co., ef Chicago has received additional cabli orders from the British War Depart* ment for the shipment of 400,000 pouuds of canned meats to Woolwich. The same company has orders from the Canadian government fer 225,000 pounds of canned meats for shipment to Winnipeg,for the use of the Cans* dinn troop*. 1VG.Henry Shaw, Representative from the Thirty-fourth Illinois Legisr lative District, Beardstown, Cass Coun­ ty, was found dead In his room at the Palace Hotel, Springfield, Sunday noon. He bad been dead several hours, and heart disease Is supposed to hare been the cause. This makes the third deatb during the session and another vacancy on the Democratic side. •OTNow tbat the Magwamps are sure that the President is going to or­ ganize a new party, it Is iu order to make np a name for it. A good Demo­ cratic paper. The Norfolk (Va.) Led' ger, leads off with a name in this way "It has been suggested tbat the new party which is soon to be formed, if President Cleveland continues In his present independent course in making nominations, will not lack for a name, as it can aptly be called the Surprise Party. A few more nominations like that of Pearson's will settle the mat tor." What a Wild Western Republican Saja. The Democratic party in turning the rast-als out turned them over, and absoibed them. The Republican party to-day fs what Is was In 1881 -- the grett ptrty of moral Ideas, with­ out any of the cant that place-hunters foisted on its grandeur in later days.-- It is neither dead nor sleeping nor en­ feebled. It has the issues which itself conceived, the courage which its own history inspires, the conscience which is Its birthright:, and the intellect which Is its inheritance. Its future is net unceitain. With all the glory of tradition to inspirit its march, it will turn into line in 188S with the war cry^ Turn the rascals out."-- Indianapolis Journal. RaP*The principle that no office­ holder should be an "offensive partisan" is a good one. The punishment meted out to those who conspiciously disre­ gard It is just. But let it in addition be especially remembered that they must go to Caesar that have appealed unto Caesar. By the same law now brought forward to vindicate the re­ movals from office, no Democratic of­ ficial can participate in a future cam­ paign without discrediting and help­ ing to defeat his party as surely as he sits upon his own forehead a. mark that shall single him out for future vengeance.--St, Paul Pioneer Press. fVThe Albany Argus thiuks Re­ publican journals which comment on Mr. Cleveland^ remarkable fendness for ex-rebels are Attempting to re­ vive sectional hate." We should rath er say they were attempting to revive patriotic loyalty and love for the government and the men who defend­ ed It. When Mr. Cleveland appoints two full-blooded ex-confederates and one copperhead to bis cabinet, sends disloyalists like Pbelps and McLane to England and France, an ex-rebel to Mexico, Mr. Vallandigbam's defender to Germany, and throws other offices right and left at the heads of confed­ erate soldiers and statesmen, It would seem to be the duty of loyal Demo­ cratic journals to cry halt to the Presi­ dent, and to advise him te remember that it these, men had bad their way lie would not be chief magistrate ol the United States to-day.-Troy Times.

Because the plow is IN FRONT of tbe driver. Because the weight of the driver Is OVER THE FURROW WHEEL, adding bat little to the draft, but keeping the plow down to its work.
