It should b« borne in mind that

ers the vitality and prepares the

greatest destroyers of humsn life,

THE DEMOCRAT-TOPIC
I'I'HMWIKU WKBKLV,
BY IIKKH & (JAKK.
Official City anil County Paper.
The Deficit.
Tlic deficit is increasing. For
ten months ending with April the
treasury deficit was almut $.'(4,000,-
000, the month of April showing
over #>,000.000.
What is the administration going
to do? The deficit last year was
charged to the Panama canal pur-
posr. What are they going to
charge it to this year, and what is
to be done al>out it? The republi-
can leaders abused the W llsoii bill
shamefully because (after the in-
come tax was eliminated) it did
not raise enough revenue to run
the government. What about the
Dingley bill? Must we raise the
tariff, which is already nearly pro-
hibitive, or will the republicans be
driven to a reduction of the tariff
in order to increase the revenue, or
will they attempt to cut down ex-
penses, and if so, they will adopt
democratic policy. Will they re-
duce the navy appropriations? If
so, they will adopt a democratic
policy. Or will they be forced to
favor the income tax as a means of
supporting the government? If so,
they will adopt a democratic policy?
Having been forced to accept the
democratic position on the trust
question, and on the question of
railroad regulation, will they now
be compelled to adopt the democra-
tic position on the question of tax-
ation? Surely the democrats have
reason to rejoice at the vindication
of their principles.—Bryan's Com-
moner.
A Troy (N.Y.) merchant who has
just retired upon a large competeu
cy gives his successors in business
this advice, and it is sound: "Ad
vertising will bring trade, but only
square, honest dealing will hold it
It is almost as hard to sell goods
without advertising as it is to catch
fish without bait. Truthful adver
tising linked with genuine bargains
is the most perfect custom producer
livery statement made in your ads
should be carefully weighed before

The reform city administration
has failed up-to-date to put a quie
tus to that ix>ker game which is
being conducted 011 the first floor
011 Main Street. It is true that
the clink of the silver dollars is not
heard, nor the greenbacks kept
plain view, but it is a genuine poker
game where many a boy of Norman
has probably learned what it takes
to make a straight, a flush or a full
house.
