A COW is an animal with four legs on the

COW is bigger than tho calf but not so big as

NEWSPAPER OPINION.
Fiela NIarshn. QUAY.

Fleiu marsha. quay
Philadelphia Times.
Senator QUAY, as a field marshal of the
Republican forces, has won great battle.
In politics as in war, nothing succeeds
but success. and while many viii criticise
the strategy or the methods Of the sue
cessful leader in war or politics, criticism
is powerful against victory.
Senator Quay accepted the leadership
OF the Harrison forces, and having done
SO, he stamped his individuality distinct
ly upon the campaign. He believes in
success; he believes that the end iusti.
ties the means. and he had lot only
genius and energy but he had ripe ex-
perience to bring to his work. Then he
won, and that makes every quality of his
leadership lustrous
Senator Quays position is now logi-
cally the most commanding one in the
country with the new administration and
he will be practically omnipotent in the
control Of Pennsylvania patronage. And
he will have no mOnkeying with civil
service reform. He will go for prompt
and clean sweep and he viii get it. and
he will get it pretty much his own way.
II Is known that Quay has little love for
the Senate. Its dull routine and affected
dignity are distasteful to him, and he
takes no part in debate. 1t is quite
probable, therefore, that he may decide
to take the portfolio of the Interior and
exchange the Senate for the Cabinet. If
he shall choose to do SO, there is nothing
in his way, and we shall not be
At all surprised If the next Legislature
will have a now Senator to elect to sue.

1t has been found bv photometric

OF the first magnitude II .nce we con-

that star of the sixth magnitude IS
ten times more remote than a star OF

sidered as typical of a star of the first

edge Of the relative distances of Alpha
