A Midnight Meditation.

A Midnight Meditation.
An exhaustive ignorance gives m. great
freedom. He is thereby enabled to talk at
Wholesale, without being at pains to make
nice distinctions. He can call the whole
world of men blockheads or philosophers, at
a sweep, without entering into questions
which might cause him to modify his state
ment. He will never have two premises to
his argument; his first premise is so compre
hensive as to leave no material for a second
and there is no need of another. The first
premise holds everything, conclusion and all
It is massive statement which leaves moth
ing more to be said.
All this gives a man great advantage. He
is master in all realms. Theology, law, arts,
music, housekeeping, are all one to him: He
would make Webster quake with the ponder
Gus sweep of his condensed arguments, and
with the same majestic assurance he will in
struct the world in breadmaking. He is as
much at home in heaven on earth. He
vies with ancient mythology and knows the
stars.
Dogmatic, too, is his ignorance. He for
mulates it. Not, indeed, by any process
known to us inferior men. No analysis, no
synthesis are here. His mind is in loftier
airs. He arrives at definite knowledge by a
mysterious intuition-a divine affiatus. may
hap, which awes and overwhelms. We feel that
he is oraoular. We know that he must squat
upon some invisible tripod and hold mysteri-
GUS communications. Else whence his OK
hausting exhsustiveness !? And when such a
one comes before men to deliver himself, his
very mien betokens that he hath indeed seen
visions. Wild-eyed and wandering limbed
his frame shows that he has been much out
of the body. He has lost some control over
it by his absence.
Such men should not be held too lightly in
eur esteem. We must remember that there
are other than children who seem impelled to
tell the truth. You know not what dark say
ing may come forth from such a mouth--un-
less thou hast heard. He rushes with a
bravery that terrifes us into a hundred
realms where men, all too sadly wise, tread
cautiously And shall he not in his forays
bring us back great wealth?
He is indeed a revealer He tells all, emp
ties himself without fear. And what if be-

\ WORD TO THE WISE

Those interested in manufacturing in this
Congressional district, either as employers
or workingmen, who are asked to vote for
Mr.. Mitchell should think at least twice be-
fore doing so. They do not want to vote
against their own interests, and they should
be careful in considering the situation.
In the first place, we remind such voters
that General Merwin stands squarely upon
protective platform. He said in his speech
accepting the nomination. ''While there is
revision needed in our tariff would oppose
changes that would place the mechanics of
this district upon level with the poorly paid
labor of European countries" This is plain
English, and everybody who knows General
Merwin knows that he means it. and that he
is really friend of the workingman.
Mr.. MitchelTs supporters say that he is as
much interested in having something more
than Incidental protection" as General Mer-
win is. Admitting this to be true, there is
great difference between his position and that
of General Merwin. Mr.. Mitchell belongs to
q party whose watchword is "a tariff for
revenue with incidental protection" The
party of which General Merwin is member
favors the full protection of American indus
tries.
Now suppose Mr.. Mitchell is elected. If
there is Republican majority in the House
he will find himself without any power to
direct or influence legislation, and if the ma
jority in the House is Democratic he will not
be able to do anything for protection. He
will be guided by the caucus dictates of his
party in the House, which will be controlled
by the Free Trade element.
On the other hand. General Merwin in a
Republican House, representing so impor-
tant district as this, would have much in
fusnce upon legislation, and in Democratic
House his vote would not be controlled by
the Free Traders.
Considering the circumstances, therefore,
is it not wiser for the manufacturers and
workingmen of this district to vote for Gen.
eral Merwin? If they vote for Mr.. Mitchell
and he is elected is it probable that he
will be able to do anything to protect their

Courts in the West are rebuking gambling
in grain and provisions. A case in point has
Just been decided In the Appellate court sit
ting at Chicago This was a suit by S. Fl.
McCrea i Co. to recover a balance of 1855,
due on some grain and pork deals made for
j. G. Colderwood. Colderwood pleaded thai
the deals were gambling transactions, but a
judgment for 1855 was rendered against him
in the Superior court, and he appealed.
Judge Wilson, of the Appellate court, held
that the plaintiff could not recover. The law,
made IN good faith for the purchase and sale
of grain and other commodities where it was
the intention of the palties that the vendor
should deliver and the vendee receive the
property sold, valid, and were not re-
pugnant to public policy. The contract was
legal, even though the time of delivery was,
within fixed and reasonable limits, made op-
tional with one party or the other. The true
nature of the transaction, however, could
not be determined from the real intention of
the parties. In order to show the intention
evidence was admissible to show how the
parties were in the habit of dealing. In the
present instance Colderwood had no means
other than a moderate salary, yet
during five months in the latter part
of 1881 he bought or sold $50, 900
bushels of grain and 1000 barrels of pork
No deliveries were ever made nor were any
of the deals carried until the option matured
or expired. There an inherent improba
bility that man of small MEANS engaged in
dissimilar business, should make such large
purchases and sales with the intention of
paying for the articles bought. Besides, the
evidence showed the deals were closed out
within few days of the time they were
made, that the statements of account only
called for a payment of differences, and
even the defendants admitted that they prob
ably did not expect Colderwood to receive
the grain and pay for it at the market price
Only one conclusion could be drawn from the
evdence-that the deals were transactions in
differences, and, such, gambling
transactions and void The judgment of the
court below would have to be reversed.

General Butler, in a recent speech at
Springfield, Mass, told how some Republi
cans had "lied'' to him. Some of the lies"
he has told in his speeches during the pres
emit campaign thus set forth In Music
Hall, Boston, he said that 1000 men were
killed or wounded in the capture of Fort
Fisher. The official report of General Terry
gives the number at CAT. He said that the
price of bunting was $50 per piece when he
began its manufacture. The price current
shows that the price in gold was less than
$12. He declared that the Hoosac Tunnel
has cost the people of Massachusetts, $780,
100000. Official statistics give the cost OF
the tunnel and about fifty miles of road, with
the interest to the time of making the last
calculations, as 1921 100000 in round num-
bers In his letter of acceptance he declared
that the State took from the taxpayers 81
500, 900 annually. The official reports show
that for all purposes the expenditures of the
State were 81 ,G25, 900 last year. the rest of
the taxes collected being paid back to the
towns At Springfield he declared that there
were 100000 officeholders in the United
States having salaries ranging from 81 900
to $17, 900. Accurate computation made in

During the last ten years Italy has rapidly

bills have been enacted, expenditures have
been brought within the revenues, italian
bonds have gone up 20 per cent. and are now
being bought up from foreign holders and
held at home, while the country is on the eve
of renewing specie payments. He is, more
over, opposed to increased ornaments on
economic grounds, point of wisdom few
European statesmen have reached. In the
