The New York Times begins an editorial
congratulating Mr.. Gladstone because of his
refusal of an earldom, by saying that "Macau-

refused to degrade Francis Bacon into Wis

cepted an invitation to the peerage, and was
exceedingly punctilious as to his title, Lord y

THE seeds of dissension have already been
sown in the ranks of the Women's Christian
Temperance Union Of Ohio. An alleged State
convention, recently held at Kenton, adopted
a resolution to the effect that the organization
would not give it's support to the Republican
party, but would do all in it's power to aid the
political Prohibition party during the pend
ing campaign. The Cleveland local
branch has already repudiated the
ill-advised action, and other branches will do
likewise. There is nothing sadder to the true
friends of temperance reform than to see such
a noble organization as the Womanis Christian
Union thrown into partisan politics by the
fanaticism of few uneasy and ambitious peo-
pie, and it's usefulness impaired, as it must
be, by the division Of feeling that will follow.
The devil the whisky power, and the Demo
cratic party could wish for nothing better.

A BROTHER of Monsignor Capel, who has been
visiting in New York and was invited to enjoy
the privileges of the Union Club. has had his in
vitation recalled because he was guilty of lying
on sofa, in one Of its public parlors, in state
of intoxication. AS the public only hears Of the
Union Club through the not infrequent disreputa-
bic scrapes Of its members some surprise will
be occasioned by this show of fastidiousness
Evidently Mr.. Capel was very, very drunk. The
good Monsignor should have seen to it that his

The condition on which the street railway
company hold the right to occupy part and
seriously obstruot the whole, of the floor of
the Morris-street bridge is that they shall
keep the floor in good repair. They claim that
this requires them to look only to the portion
of the floor occupied by their tracks. That is
to say, that for the right to use a public
work, which cost the people many thousands
of dollars, and the use Of which by the COM
pany is more or less an obstruction of its
public use they need only to repair that part
necessary for their own service, and are bound
to do nothing for the public for the possession
of this right which puts great deal Of money
in their pockets without cent OF
outlay. That bridge, which is so
indispensable to their profit, did
not cost them copper, and they say they
wont give copper for the use of it, except
so much Of it as they use themselves. It is
about as cheeky a proposition as we have
heard of in good many years. The county
board will do just the right thing to revoke
the valuable concession that appropriates so
costly public work SO largely to the private
advantages of corporation. Even their own
slender construction Of their duty is not
maintained. The street railway company
needs a little wholesome admonition that this
city is not their private property, fact that
they have somehow lost due appreciation of.

IHE IoiioWlng artlcie from the 1nOiana
Farmer, of this week, a paper without partisan
prejudices, and devoted exclusively to the in
terests Of agriculture and domestic pro-
ductions, is worth reproducing and careful
reading:
"Forty years ago the New England States
had surplus of agricultural productions af-
ter feeding her own population. Though that
section produces more per acre than ever
before, it does not now grow enough to
feed its population more than sixty days
in a year. The State of New York pro-
duces more to-day than ever before, but
enough only to feed one-third Of its own
population. But for the wonderful develop
ment OF manufacturing industries, this grow
ing population would have been kept in the
agricultural pursuits. There would have been
very little home market for the surplus, and
all experience teaches that without such COM
peting markets the buyers in the foreign mar
kets would have dictated prices, and instead
of fourishing agriculture in America we
should have seen it in much the same misera-
bly, Frustrated condition it now is in Great
Britain. But, thanks to that wise system of
fostering protection, begun under Presi-
dent Washington, and continued until
now, except at brief intervals, the
great natural resources of this country
have been constantly developing Decade af-
ter decade our manufacturing mining, and
commercial populations have been more than
doubling, and now as nation we consume
eight-tenths of the farm productions of this
country No thoughtful person can fail to
see that agriculture would have been at a low
ebb in this country had q different public pol
icy prevailed. If, instead of developing into
symmetrical nation Of all the essential in
dustries for making us great, we had been
compelled to develop but ons of our great re-
sources, and thus depend upon nation that
has developed all for our markets, this must
have been the result But under a wise pol
icy of the fathers of the Republic we see our
symmetrical proportions in the following
figures, which show the annual value of prod
ucts of the several industries:
Manufactures. s.......--....-......$ $50 900 900 900
Mining 700 O0O, 600
Commerce ..--..-..-.--.--..---.... 1905 ,OOO, 900
Other pursuits. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. $500 900 900
Total $21 900 900 900
'In round numbers it is seen that agrieult-
ure and manufacturing hold nearly even
pace. In this grand result is to be seen
the wisdom Of that first tariff law, passed
by the first Congress under our pres
ent Constitution, and signed by Presi-
uehC washington. 1t was the HrsC lmpor-
tant step to our industrial greatness, and
from that date the Nation gained from it
momentum in the march, not only of indus
trial independence, but in her power to inn
press upon the world her better social and
political systems and civilization. Possibly
the fathers builded better than they knew
Certainly now that we are able to see the
wisdom of it all in the outcome, we shall not
destroy what has been well ordered. The
agriculture of America has more at stake in
preserving our industrial equilibrium and
even Development than any other branch of
industry"
