THF ARGENTINE REVOLUTION

The revolution in the Argentine Re-
public is an effective object lesson of
national extravaganza. OF late years
the republic has enjoyed a steady i'm
migration, and the population is now
estimated at between four and five
millions. The country embraces an
area Of more than one million square
miles, and its resources are abundant.
The government being in the hands of
the people there would seem TO be no
good reason why the republic should
not be as peaceful and prosperous as
the United States. In searching for
the causes Of the revolution. allowance
must be made first of all for the fact
that the people of the Argentine Re
public, like the people of nearly every
South American country are a hetero-
genous mass who have not yet learned
the science of government. Their in
situations are still in a crude and

preparation bill was only recently re-
ported to the house from the appro-
priations committee. Seldom in the
history of these United States have
such scenes of recklessness and
proiigacy been witnessed at the
national capitol. II any Of the ad-
mirers of Mr.. Reed fancy that his
course meets with the country's en-
dorsement, they will be undeceived and

OUAy'S NEW RACKET.

The fine Italian hand of senator
Quay has been discovered In q new deal
"a deal which reflects credit upon his
ingenuity and at the same time shows
how hard the willy politician is pressed.
Quay's scheme is to nominate a labor
ticket in every congressional and legis-
lative districts of Pennsylvania. In
this way he hopes to divide the demo-
cratic vote and elect his man Delama-
ter. But Quay is no labOring man him.
self, and, therefore, cannot lead in such
a movement. In default he buys q
printing press and starts a newspaper
called the Pittson Herald. The news-
paper will answe the purposes very
well providing it is well handled. 1t
will not plead for Quay or the republic
can party, but my, how it will plead for
the poor down-trodden wOrkingman.
Quay's labor paper will also urge that
the corporations must be %Overthrown,
and the only way to overthrow them is
to nominate a labor ticket and elect IL.
The chief drawback to the success
of this racket is the fact that it
has been found out. The attempt to
impose upon them will have the effect
of solidifying the workingmen in their
opposition to Quay and his man Friday.
That somewhat eccentric divine,
Rev. Thomas X. Beecher of Elmira, ".
Y, a brother of the famous Henry
Ward, has given the people of Seattle
a eve shock. IL is the custom of the
enterprising newspapers in that ambi-
tious city to interview all visitors of
Importance and extract from each a
column or two of taffy, which every
good Seattelian devours with ayidity.
The reporters therefore called upon
Mr.. Beecher, expecting him to furnish
enough saccharine pabulum to last for
a week. Mr.. Beecher is addicted to the
old fashioned habit of telling the truth
as he understands it, and he could not
be induced to make an exception even
for SO worthy a cause as the booming
of the over doomed city on the sound.
"You have" he observed with fine dis
erection, plenty of water and land and
houses and trees" This was a good
beginning, the reporters thought, and
they begged the old clergyman to go
on. "Oh," he continued, according to
the chroniclers of the occasion, you
are all gambling on the future. The
time will come when somebody will
have to pay for the chips you are now
playing with" No doubt these were
the sentiments expressed by the inter
viewed, but there is grave suspicion
that the interviewers i'm revenge have
taken improper liberties with his Ian
guage. Whoever is responsible, the
metaphor is about the size of it.

Mr.. Mast withdrew his hand from his
pocket and passed coldly on.
We were soon out on Pennsylvania
avenue.
what is that imposing docking struc-
ture down the avenue there?"
(Which one?" asked.
''Why, that tall edifce with the group
of statuary upon it. -
''That is not an edifice, Mr.. Mast;
that is one of the ultra fashionable We

very height of fashion.
81 knew they were the very height of

contemplated If more in detail.

HWhat elevators?
"Why, how do they get up to the
main floor of it?''
"'Oh, you know the young men who
ride in these carts are not very heavy. l
presume they merely let go of their
canes and just float up.
Mr.. Mast had by this time turned his
field glass toward the top of the cart and
discovered that it was not group of
statuary-not exactly statuary-that he
had seen up there.
"Oh, no, - l informed him; ''that is
the young man and his cluster of foot
men. -
"And does the young man own and
control the entire outfit?''
Eyes, indeed. He is an exceedingly
wealthy young man.
''How did he make his money?'
'By the sweat of his fathers private

HWhy doesn t he buy the Eiffel Tower
and hitch a bob-tailed horse to it?''
"Mr. Mast, - said, severely, for 1

this speech, ''you should not speak with
undignified or disrespectful levity of our
rising young men,

tell me this young man is ever going TO

that he had complete confidence in the
wisdom and patriotism of the present
congress and fully believed it would do
all in its power to overcome this great
national bugbear.
$50 that is the reason no guard is
kept upon the treas ury, is it?''
l saw that Mr.. Nash was incapable of
comprehending this vast subject in all
its broadness. He could readily UNDER
stand, he said, that the more money q
nation has the poorer 1t is. but he could
not go forward far enough to see that if
the possession of great wealth is so
heavy a burden, it logically follows that
the way to dispose of the surplus, and at
the same time to break down tbe excess
sively and dangerously classes of the
nation, is to pile this money upon them
by means of subsidies and grants. So
changed the subject.
"Shall we go to the capitol and see
what the law-givers ere giving us?''
The proposition pleased Mr.. Mast, and

seat IN the summer strest car-crawled

In the senate gallery Mr.. Mast began
asking questions as usual.
"Who is that tall gentleman down
there in the front row?'
(Which one?''
"The very bald one who tells all the
others what to do and makes them do it;
the one that looks like Socrates come to

ago..
81 thought SO, his nose is so dreadfully
sun burnt.
We listened a long time to the debate.
1t was ali about the tariff.
sis the tariff bill before the senate?'
asked Mr.. Mast.
BLESS you, no; they wouldn t be
talking about the tariff if 1t were. When
you hear them discussing the race ques-
ton or the free coinage of silver, or
something of that sort, you may gu ess
the tariff bill is up. 1t is one OF the tradi-
tionary rules of this body that senators
must avoid as far as possible any even
remote allusion to the question under
consideration.
At this point Senator Edmunds made
some eloquent remarks in support of the
commandment: fThou shalt not steal
not even the fruits of the American
manufacturer labor, he said.
"By the way said Mr.. Mast, as il
this had reminded him of something,
"what did they do with the interna-
tional copyright bill in the bouse?'
"Beat it by a clear majority. -
Mr.. Mast looked off into space, and
his countenance wore the expression of
a man who is trying to solve the intricate
problem of riding two horses going in
opposite directions without ultimately
yanking off suspender button or two.

rigging of his dog cart, may one day be

"You don't tell me. Is he, indeed,
as rich as all that?''
And my companion lapsed into silence
almost reverential.
We had not gone far when we saw a
woman coming toward us, limpiug, and
following small, hairy dog which led
her by a silken cord.
"Bless me!'' said Mr.. Mast, show
many beggars you have in Washington! {"
His tender, sympathetic soul was
touched with remorse for the GOODNESS
with which he had declined TO help the
poor blind man in the park. He drew q
large coin from his pocket ana was hast
ening toward the woman TO give it to her
when 1 inquired of him his purpose.

structure of our Union, and turning
square about, behsld in rapt and linger-

have thought her deeply attached to the
