WITH pathetic solicitude and loving
interest the Morning News asks:
What has become of Horace Greeley
Knowlesy The last heard of him was
that he had lost his ticket Since then
no spark Of information from his scintil-
lating career has fallen into his native
haunts, and so it is conjectured that he
has left the country.
And what has become Of Senator Hig-
gins who was to harmonize the colored
saddle-colored and semi white Republi-
cans of Delaware into one conglomerate
mass of vehement and frenzied patriot
ism to march upon Washington and de-
mand the plums Of officer What has be-
come Of the first, only and phenomenal
Republican from Delaware who was going
break the South into compound and in
adhesive fracture2 What has become Of
them all--the saints, the bottlewashers,
the priests Of the high tariff and the
patriots, who wanted to do their fighting
now because II was dangerous and ineon-
venient to fight during the war Have
they all been lost in the general and un-
seemly rush for officer Does not the
present situation OF the local
Republicans show how degener.
ate Republicanism has become2 Are
they not all Republicans, at least those
who have achieved unenviable promi
nence, for what they can make out Of
Republicanism. That being the case, Of
course they fall into well deserved OBJ
scurity so soon as they obtain office.

THE conversion of the iron and wool
manufacturers Of New England headed
by Governor Oliver Ames of Massaehu-
setts is a matter Of congratulation to the
tariff reformers. It is true they have
been convinced only after the high tariff
on the raw materials, coal, iron and wool
have closed their factories
But in the present age no
argument seems to reach the average Re-
publican's brain which does not go
through his pocket. The Republicans
teach nothing that is not an appeal to
to the pocket Of some particular class and
patriotism with the manufacturers, the
laborers, the old soldiers and
the carpet-baggers of the South
seems to be simply question
Of "What is in II for us9' Hence,
though Governor Ames and the manu-
facturers Of New England are making a
death bed repentance and becoming tariff
reformers, when 70 cents on ton Of
coal, SO 50 on a ton Of iron and from 2i
to 30 cents per pound on wool make the
millions of dollars invested in their
plants Improbable they are still well
come to the ranks. Within a few years
the same conversion viii inevitably oc-
cur in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and
Connecticut, because The iron and cotton
industries viii be unable to compete
with the mills in the Southern
States where iron. coal and
cotton are more accessible. 1t is
queer patriotism but the appeal
TO the pocket is all there is in the degene-
rate Republicanism of Quay, Dudley.
Wanamaher. Harrison Platt, Miller and
Tanner. The appeals themselves are
false and they are contradicted every day
by strikes, closing mills and failing fac
tories. They have been falsified in our
own city by reductions in wages and the
removals Of factories,

there is nothing of the bungling
horror which attended the execution Of
two Of the criminals hung by Brown in
New York recently. 1t is true that no
body but the officials were allowed to
witness the execution but it hurts some
sympathetic people just as bad to read Of
those cruelties to the dear murderers as
to see them. BY these means
all Of those objections would be overcome
so that the spectator or the reader would
be captivated by the artistic precision
with which the job was performed and
would forget that the life Of valuable
murderer Of woman was lost to the

Tho wondrous Elixir.

The years Of her life numbered four score and
ten.
Her memory long ago failed her,
Her heath was so feeble that medical men
Could not guess what the the thing was that
allied her
She was blind as bat as deaf as post,
And everything seemed TO confuse her:
We daily expected she'd give up the ghost.
And yet we all dreaded TO lose her.
A short time ago as a dernier ressort,
In hopes that lt somehow might fix her
We gave her in moderate doses a quart
OF DR.. Brown-Sequard's elixir.
II acted like magic; much younger she grew,
Her hair showed no slvery shade in.
And then In the course Of a fortnight or two
She changed TO charming young maiden.
Yet still the elixir continued to act:
To childhood we saw her returning,
And fiction was not half SO wondrOus as fact,
For dolls she was found 10 be yearningl
She shortly became her great grandchildren
pride.
With playthings and innocent prattle,
Until as y baby OF ninety She died.
Choked 70 death, having swallowed her
rattle.

Not Worth Preserving.

New York Tribune.
The foolhardy Graham has accom-
plished the silly and useless feat OF going
over the Horse shoe Fall in his barrel,
and has saved his worthless life into the
bargain. But he appears to have had a
narrow escape, and he announces that
he has had enough. There is some
thing that smacks of death.

ing, but it would really seem
as If Graham's experience had been
sufficient to deter any rival or competitor
from like undertaking. Men who en-
gage in business Of this sort commonly
have lives hardly worth preserving; at
the same time they have no right to fling
them away. The only way TO deal with
such men is TO make their conduct Grim
inal and let the law take its course.

A Present Worth Having.

The last issue of the Clayton Call con
tains the following: Division Operator
Mackey is to-day proud as a boy with the
proverbial wagon. The cause of his pride
is this. Upon arriving at his Office thi 8
morning he found neat package lying
on his desk, to which he gave but
little attention. On being told that
he was interested in it, he opened
It and found therein, in plush case, a
handsome gold watch. He still did not
give it any particular thought, and was
told to open the watch, which he did, and
found engraved thereon: Presented to
D. H. Mackey, Division Operator, by En-
ployes of Telegraph Department, Septem-
Der 3, 1899. He was nearly swept off his
feet by this announcement, and at this
writing has not entirely recovered
from the surprise. The watch is
of heavy gold, elegantly chased and
studded with brilliants. The monogram,
I'D. H M. on the back is handsomely
wrought on a raised centre surrounded
by raised flowers of gold. 1t was pur.
chased from S. II. Bayard. the well
known Wilmington jeweler, and is as
beautiful piece Of work as we have
ever seen. It was given Mr.. Mackey as q
mark of esteem in which he is held by
those in his department A glimpse OF
the watch will convince any person that
its owner ought to feel proud with it in
his pocket

nigh Tarifr is Domestic Monopoly.

Harper's Weekly.
The relation Of a high tariff to trusts
is evident and simple. A high tariff dis
courages importations OF protected man
ufactures. Such encouragement is sup
posed to secure the home market. If,
then, the existing domestic producers of
protected manufactures can agree to com
bine instead of compete, they
can destroy domestic competition,
and command the market
at their own prices. In period of ten
dency to the aggregation of capital this
result is quite sure, as experience proves,
to follow high tariff. Such tariff is
expressly designed TO secure domestic
monopoly. But that monopoly, once
established, will by its own law tend TO
its own aggrandizement Defended from
foreign competition, it will strike at the
domestic competition which remains.
