A staff correspondent of the Pitts
burg Post in a recent letter 20 his pa
per gave the following paragraph in
reference to Hon. VIM. L. Wilson:
"a debate such as that on the
tariff brings to the front men who
have never been credited with the de-
gree of talent they really possess.-
Take Representative VIM. l.. Wilson,
of West Virginia. His congressional
experience has been comparatively
short; his tastes those of a scholar,
and less in harmony with the ordinary
run of political affairs than almost
any of the members of the house.
Yet his speech on the tariff bill was a
revelation. 1t was equally as, sound
and certainly more entertaining in the
method of presentation than the adj
dresses made by Messrs. Mills. Car
Isle, Breckenridge and the othergen-
tlemen who have for years been the
great exponents of the tariff reform
idea -

Cash VS.. Credit.

Col. Chas. Broadway Rouss never
silences his batteries against the
credit system. He gives the follow
ing shot in late circular:
SUCCESsi
The race is not always with the
swift nor the battle to the mighty.
Zeal without discretion fights her
defensive with the level-headed, and
is driven inch by inch until the belt
falls and the waters close over the
wreck forever like the old guard of
Napolean at Waterloo, the solid pha-
lanx that had never quailed before n
human foe went down as they stood
in lines and legion, so men of big
brain-power and pocketbook-tal-
ented, popular, progressive, clever
in ambition, energy and pluck, men
who have seen the store boy four
dollars a week, Horace b. Claflin,
walk up from the bottom to the very
highest pinnacle of fame under the
banner of KING CREDIT, most men
charging down into the life struggles
think because one man got up that
way that it is the right way to fight
to win. 1t was the long and the hard
way. Adown the dead gauntlet of
credit barbarism it seems strange
that he escaped and stranger still
that he stands at the top. But the
hosts unnumbered, unhonored and
forgotten that perished on the ILL
fated plain of thirty days, and the
drifting out into eternity would
freeze the ardor of the enthusiast
were he to look statistics square in
the teeth and count his uncertain
chances in that big majority as they
crowd down headless, helpless and
hopeless to the red line of inevitable
ruin. Even though he is merchant
king of the earth, the terrible roads
over which he marched to victory
were wrong, and he will tell you so.
The high, straight, asphaltum that
Stewart took was the right one, and
his colossal fortune, towering away
above the annals of mercantile his
tory, unquestionable clenchest the
fact. 1t is the true, quick, straight
path over which we invite you to fol-
folds in inperishable letters are en-.
craven net spot cash, and upon the
other side the almighty dollar
We're it possible to get the message
from the unfortunate Peake, the
chivalrous Opdyke, the wealthy Hoyt
Spragues, or that grand master of
his profession Topping, and many
other men of stainless honor, vast
ambition and rare commanding en-
terprise and ability, it would be like
this, :. Burn or bury your credit
ledger and deal upon the dead GER
tainty of money down." Your un-
worthy servant would refer you to
Halstead, Emory, Ivy & Lee, Sewall
Erickson, Edmond Yard. Cochran,
Mclean, Lathrop, Luddington, Hoyt
& Bradley and Cochran & Aitken-
personal friends of the writer-all of
them men of great force and charac-
ter, piles of bullion, unlimited credit,
illimitable ambition. Had these tai
ented children of genius their bat
ties to fight over again. you may
safely bet your life it would be upon
the basis of Omnipotent Bullion, hut
under the blighting shadow of the

Her Face.
BT A. W. HAWKS

tW,iren for TIE Bdiinored,i.1
1t was so long ago; so many years have fowl
Since have seen her face;
So much of pain so much of joy I've known
But memory has kept the trace.
Down through the gliding years of saddeuct
days,
She walks alone.
And in q Thousand, tender. loving ways,
So still my own.
The blossoming flowers hold her smile;
The stars her eyes;
Her voice greets me in the winds the while,
A glad surprise.
In lily cups nnd her tempting lipsi
She whispers In each stream;
And when my soul the dreaui-cup sips
She makes my fairest dream.
All! death she cheats you in thousand ways
Slips from thy cold embrace,
And lightens for me many gloomy days,
By her sweet face.
In every rain-tear from the weeping cloud;
In every drop Of dew
find her face, 60 lowly, yet so proud;
So lovely and SO true.
Who was she, and her name7
I do not know in truth;
A vapor picture. In q shadow frame,
A dream Of youth.
