The romance of Senator ingalls, was
one of love at first sight He was a
struggling young lawyer of Kansas and
had hung out his shingle in little
town above Atchison. He paid no at
tention to the women and the flowers
of the frontier wasted their sweetness
upon other nostrils than his. One day
he was asked to be groomsman at .
friends wedding. and while SO acting
saw that one of the bridcmaids was ex-
ceedingly fair. He was introduced to
her as Miss Anna Cheeseborough, and
he learned that she was the daughter
of a New York merchant who had come
TO Atchison to live. In company with
her he journeyed for a day with the
new bride and groom and Dan Cupid

The Newspaper of the Future.

The newspaper OF the future will
rid itself of tho smartness and flip
pancy with which the newspaper. oi
the present is too often disfgured.
Its writers will be selected for their
learning, careful literary training,
and fairness of judgment. Verbosity
is one of the most dreaded terrors OF
the average newspaper reader. He is
likely to think that an erudite, thor
oughly informed writer must needs
be dull and prosy. Let us admit that
we cannot possibly endure long, dull,
editorial articles, and that we will not
have colorless, dry statement OF
facts in the news columns OF the jour-
nal OF our choice. But is it asking
too much of human nature-ne wspa-
per human nature-that the paper
shall be crisp and bright without
malice, learned and intelligent with
out dullness? No sensible person ex-
poets that political parties are to be
disbanded or hooted out Of existence.
The parties and the newspaper will
remain for many centuries to come.
But men will learn that it pays to be
fair and honest in politics as in diplo-
macy, and in many another field OF
human activity in which lying was
once thought to be part of the best
equipment. Then readers, tired OF
the fruitless hunt for truth and fair
ness in the columns OF tho political
newspaper, will be gratiiied with an
answer TO their demand for change
TO something better. Who will be
the pioneer in the new feld?-Noah
Brooks tn the July Forum.

hoiuely expression, and the vile use that
professional politicians have made of the
"Proteclion Policy" to further their own
selfish purposes, is threatening rebound
which hazards disaster to many lines of
prosperous business. During period of
25 years under the highest tariff America
has ever known, the largestlcrop of million
airs has been produced that in the worlds
history can be found; and prosperous ag-
rcultural class has fallen from a state of
comfortable competency in worldly goods,
to the brink Of bankruptcy and dependent
tenency. We don't blame high tariff laws
for this result, only they have not prevented
it. In the presence of cold facts argument
and theory must shut their mouths and
stand dumb. The patient is dying and the
medicine which has been given him fails to
alleviate, a.uch less cure. Something else
must be tried. Suppose we try single tax
and remonelizing silver.

The Arrogant CLAIMS of MONOPOLY

The Arrogant CLAIMS of Monopoly.
A defender of all assumed rights
of railroad companies, corporations
and trusts says:
"But no man can dispute rail

fit in such a matter (that is water its
stock and make such charges as the
company pleases) and in the man

ing included; and it is no outsiders
business whether that % per ceut is
paid on one share of stock or 81 per
cent on four shares of stock; that is
matter which solely concerns the
owners"
This is just what the Western
farmers do most emphatically deny.
The Western farmers are making the
railroads out in that quarter howl;
hence this absurd claim of one of
their New York defenders.
Railroads are common carriers,
instituted for a specific purpose,
which is to transport freight and pas
sengers. No railroad ever produced
a dollars worth OF property. 1t is
only a common hireling, and is en-
titled to reasonable wages for its
service. Twenty five per cent is
robbery, not reasonable wages for
service rendered. The producer is
the actual owner of all the wealth he
produces by his labor and skill, with
no other claimant. The railroad
owns nothing but It's tracks cars and
station houses. The whole volume
of its business belongs to others alb
solutely, and it was meyer granted
the privilege of a common carrier
with the provision to rob the public
by virtue of an opportunity afforded
it solely for che benefit of the public.
Extortion from the public is not a
public benefit. This impudent claim
set up for railroad, telegraph and
similar corporations by their defend.

am ready to acknowledge that the

in this matter of temperance. Why
not, indeed? They see the skeletons

and they know why this lad never
kept the fond promise with which he
entered college. They know what is
