the Belgians has regularly offered every
year, for the last ten years, . prize OF
Gl.OOO for the best work on some sub
iect of general interest, the greatest
latitude of choice being allowed the
candidates, provided the work came
within the sufficiently COMPREHENSIVE
category Of "ouvres dintclligence."
During the whole ten years the prize
has only been awarded noe. Year
after year the Jury appointed to decide
on the merits of the different essays
sent in have had to make the melan-
choly return that not n Of them came
up to a decent standard. Macaulay
(himself . writer OF prize poems) has
somewhere said that prize sheep are
only fit to make candles of, and prize
poems to light them with. Young Ok
ford would probably object to the die
tum; but in Belgium, if prize essays
and prize poems may be placed on the
same footing. it would seem to be in
part true.-PaH Mall Gazette. r

MR.. HENDRICKS OPINION

The opinion of Mr.. Hendricks on
the issues that are before the people
in the present campaign is Of the great
est value to the Democratic party,
and it would he well if the course Of
political discussions were, to some ex
tent. directed by that opinion. There
il no statesman in the country who IN.
derstanls how to express an opinion
rs clearly and tcrsely as the next Vice
President Of the United States, and his
opinion expressed the other day, that
the only issue before the country was
that Of reform in the National admin
istration, is cOuched in sach clear,
pointed aud po.itive language. that its
earnest tone end the cOn victiOn of the
speaker cannot be mistaken. Nj. Hen
bricks clearly defines what 10 but
vaguely understood by the masses;
namely, that the tariff issue is n that
will. under all circumstances. take care
of itself. It secmsto be Mr.jHehdricks
belief that the necessity Of protection
must always be subservient to the first
object for which taxes are levied ; but
even this opinion is sufficient to ncour
age the industries that seek for protec
ton within tho Democratic party. The
sugar and wool Industries. for instance.
which flourish in strongly Democratic
sections, need not entertain Il ferr that
the sword Of reform will strike at them
in SO far rs they need absolutely to I've
protected against foreign competition,
whilst, on tn. other hand, the Democra
tic party is pledged to reduce wherever
a reduction is fair, just aud advisable.
This brings the question Of the tariff
entirely back to the basis of 1876, when
Hendricks formulated opinions that
were acceptable to the country, and
which elected him to the Office for
which he has again been selected by
the unanimous vote of his party.
The rea, issue before the country is
the one of reforming a corrupt admin
istration. SIR. Hendricks says aptly
that honest Republicans said so in '76
and say so again to-day. The simple
story of his boyhood is repeated in his
old age. Jackson's hickory broom is
again needed to sweep out the corrupt
filth of the administration. No Blaine
must enter the white House to chastise
with scorpions. where his predecessors
only applied rods. No executive must
be elected who will nominate corrupt
men as his secretaries and again use
the Government as the instrument of
personal aggrandizement. The time
for a change has come. The corrupt
must go, and men must be elected
whose names are at least a warrant
that they will work and watch for the
honor Of the Nation by enforcing the
honesty ofthe. Government. So says Mr..
Hendricks, aud Of all men he knows
best.

trai.l-hoy sat on the arm of my seat and
said:
No, sir, I don't like Jesse James"
"Sort Of o competitor Of yours, eh?"
I asked.
"What?"
"Ie was a competitor of yours in

why, don't you know who Jesse

Then he brought some a~pples-little

"How much?"
"Three for ten cents"
"How did Jesse use to rob trnins?"
"Why, he put o pistol against a pas

"Ah! carried . pistol, did he?"

Soon the train boy came in with some
prize packages.
Are you sure Jesse James is dead?"
I asked.
"Of course he's dead. Bob Ford fix

"And do You think the revolver will

"Eh"

the perplexed train-boy.
