By the way, where is Alger at?
The farmers of the country are under a harrow, with McKinley on top of it.
Weaver seems to be pulling up considerably as he comes down the homestretch.
Mr. Allen's Liberal party seems to have slipped out from underneath him in this race.
Speaking of the garbage question, it is Cannon's party that is responsible for the Utah commission.
Owing to the condition of the silk market umbrellas have advanced half a dollar.
Praise McKinley.
Weaver and Simpson will be in condition to exchange views after the election on the Tom-and-Jenny question.
Mr. Wanamaker is going to Indiana to electioneer for Harrison, and we suppose he takes the family melodeon along.
Now that Grover Cleveland has moved into his new house, we should like to enquire if there is a lightning rod on it.
Republicanism of the latest variety has flooded the land with a cataclysm of shoddy goods, shoddy politics and shoddy statesmen.
Frank Cannon's ascension seems to have been rather entertaining, as his balloon was inflated to its utmost extent, but look out for the parachute descent.

There will be an interesting time at Ogden tonight, no doubt, at the Rawlins-Cannon joint debate. It is called so because it is expected that the Rawlins carver will strike the Cannon joint every pop.
The St. Louis Globe-Democrat truly remarks: It is a good many years since the Democrats were in power simultaneously in the Presidency and in both branches of Congress. If they secure the Presidency this year, however, they will undoubtedly get the House and Senate.
From the power and vigor of Governor Flowen's recent speeches, we judge he has changed his mind since he made his celebrated Fire Island remark: "I don't care a d--n for Democratic votes or any other votes in a case like this." For a church elder the governor makes his sentiments pretty clear on all occasions.
Many years ago an illustrious jurist of England said that the inevitable results of
