The whole elections have turned upon national issues. Yet the people have voted heretofore to reform the unconstitutional tariff in the interest of those who wished to reform it in the direction of a tariff for revenue ‘only. THE OHIO SITUATION. Cleveland,O, Nov-—The Plain dealer (Dem.) says: By a majority certainly large enough for all practi cal purpose Mr. McKinley succeeds himself as Governor of Ohio. To those closely in touch with events in the Ohio campaign this is not a surprise. While the vote given Mr. McKinley by no means indicates either personal or party strength in more stirring political times tocome, it is patent that Obiohas just been the field of a preliminary Presiden tial skirmish—a plan to that effect -was long ago mapped out, and cir cumstances have conspired to ren- der it apparently successful. Cincinnati, O, Nov. 8.—The En- quirer says: Is there a Democrat in the face of these facts who can have the boldness to proclaim that the Republican yictory is meaningless? Is there one who can explain away the Republican majority? The al- most complete reversal of opinion from one year ago is an unerring in dication of the feeling that is abroad in the nation. Ohio has declared for protection. There is no other leason taught by the result. It is not neccessary to go anywhere else for political pointers. Obio has spoken so plainly and in such a di- rect manner that no one willing to understand can misunderstand. CALIFORNIA OPINIONS.

Then he | every man a and | the sole work the na- The fields and = granaries of other tribes were their supply. Thus he became the unchallenged master of what, to him, was all the world. He was murdered at last by his brother Dingaan, as Mr. Haggard reminds and then the decline of the Zulu er began. Dingaan was de- r of his brother Panda, and Panda was succeeded by his son Cetewayo, with whom, after his last heroic struggle with England, the Zulu dynasty ended. But the ¢ est of T’Chaka’s war- riors, his war secretary and field mar- shal, was one Moselekatze. or Unsili- kat some spell it. And not long before the death of T’Chaka, he, with the flower of the Zulu army, marched over the Drakensberg into the land of the Bechuanas and founded the Mata- bele kingdom. There he adopted the same discipline that had made the Zulus so great, with the result that the Matabeles soon actually surpassed in power the parent Zulu empire itself. For nearly fifty years the name of Moselekatze was a terror to all the tribes from the Zambesi to the Vaal, and more than once his conquering le- giovs swept across the Transvaal and the Orange state into Basutoland and Natal. Twenty-five years ago he died and his son Lobengula reigned in his place. This monarch has allowed the military prowess of his people greatly to decline and has been reasonably friendly to the British. But his ar- mies have never been defeated. He is, almost as much as was his father, a scourge to all his native neighbors. And he bitterly opposes the absorption of his kingdom by the British, although hitherto a subsidy has kept his oppesi- tion passive. His raid against the peaceful Mashonas is really against their patron and protector, the British South Africa Co., and it is with it and with such forces as Mr. Rhedes can send to its assistance that his twenty- five thousand deal. —N.

The word was originally used for money in general, It is first mentioned in the laws of Ina, king of the West Saxons, about the close of the seventh century, and was of silver deeply indented with a cross so as to be easily broken in two or four parts. It is the radical denomination from which STEEL FORK English coin is numbered, weighing twenty-two and one-half grains Troy, being the two-hundred-and-fortieth “COW BOY” SADDLES part of a pound. It is stated elsewhere that Ethelbert, king of Kent, coined pennies between 560 and 616 A. D. Ed- ward I. eoined gold pennies. In 1797 copper pennies were used, and bronze ones in 1860, valued at half the copper ones. The United States coined copper cents and half-cents in 1793, in 1857 a nickel cent, and in 1865 a bronze cent. The word penny is derived from the old German word pfant, a pledge. It was the only coin current among the Anglo- Saxons. After Edward III. the coin decreased in value. To the lowest coin Robert Morris gave the name of “‘cent” because it was the hundredth part of a dollar. Its first coinage was in 1793.— London Exchange. ‘To Keep Ants Away.
