THE STRAWBERRY SEASON.

This is the tantaliZing season of the
strawberry, when it is ranged enticingly
to the eye, and is the worst deceit to the
taste. For has not some one described
this fruit of commerce as the grating
of a turnip radish upon rhubarb or
pie-plant stock, void of perfume, and as
seedy as ALFRED JINGLE. But see the
eagerness of the world to become pos
sessed of the first strawberries in mar
ket, as if the disappointment of each
year were aforementioned. Curiously
enough, there is no memory of past dis
illusions, else how could people be
found to buy the berries of the earliest
importation. When FULLER praised
the strawberry in the superlative way
he did, it must have been vastly differ
ent from the forced growth of to-day.
Surely there is nothing in the fruit at
the present time to account for such en-
thusias tic encomium. Doubtless in the
five hundred years of its known cultiva-
ton the strawberry has undergone some
changes which the critical would not re-
gard as altogether in the line of improve
ment. The flavor and the delicacy have
been sacrificed for bulk and circumfer-
ence and superabundance.
SHAKESPEARE is the spokesman for
everything that concerns humanity, and
he favors the wild strawberry, for he
says:
The strawberry grows underneath the nettle,
And wholesome berries thrive and ripen best
Neighbored by fruit of baser quality.
But what would he think now of the
derived varieties? Possibly that they
were as divergent from those of his
time as his Hotspur and Hamlet are
from the men of to-day. 1t is nearly
wear since there was announcement
of the death of JOHN Fl. LOCKE in this
fashion-that she had been recently ap-
pointed postmaster at Portsmouth, n.
a., and died from eating strawberries
and over-eXcitement about his appoint
ment." If the fruit had been of its
whilom benignity and sweetness, it
would have soothed instead of doing to
death the agitated system of the place

the case with those who have pat
-ronage at their disposal. Most of the
labor. however, is in procuring informa-
ton from the departments. The mem
bers Of the senate have provided them
selves with clerks. although they have
fewer calls for this sort Of drudgery
than the representatives. Still, the peo-
pie will be slow to tolerate this expedi
ent. The attempts to add to the salary
and perquisites of members have al
ways been unpopular. There are orher
expedients that may be had to relieve
the chief burden, such as bureau of
information, to gather all the facts the
members may need, and write most of
the letters from dictation. An addition
of $50 or more clerks will involve an
expense of 81. 50O,0 900, which will be an

Biermann for Governor.

Superior (Wis.) Call.
If the Democrats of the Twin Cities
in Minnesota have common horse sense
this year they can elect the governor,
and perhaps the legislature. 1t takes
but an ordinary student of political
events to see that the way is clear now
to elect AdoIph Biermann governor. In
time when public affairs were less
favorable to Democracy, Biermann re-
5duced the Republican majority remark
ably, and his nomination now would al
most inevitably result in his election.
The Scandinavian voters are at last be-
coming aware that while go cd enough
to vote Republican tickets they are not
good enough for high positions. The
treatment awarded them during the
Democratic administration was differ
ent. Bright men who were Democratic
were rewarded with high and valuable
positions. Biermann was one of these
men. and his name is known throughout
the state. Let the Democrats of Mime
sofa nominate him, because he has
shown himself Democrat and an Of
fetal above reproach, and they will elect
him

hunter just sure of his office. 1t ought
to have been adding one good thing to
another; but, alas. the strawberry is not
as good as it looks, and 1t is the delusion
that is fatal. The berry is as uncertain
in its relish as the political Office to
which, in this duly recorded case, it
was such deadly addendum.
However, the crop is unusually full
and promising. But the human crop is
rash that bankers after the foreign
product instead of waiting for the home

has the advantage of clean earth. pure
air, uneXhausted by travel, and is the
honest essence of natures boanty, in

DESERVE CREDIT.

The Democrats in Vermont met in
convention the past week and nominated
full state ticket, just as they have
every year for quarter of a century.
They come into the field early, noml-
nate good men, just as good-possibly a
shade better-as if they were in the
habit of electing. In an earlier time it
was said by some facetious gentleman,
possibly Gen. BUTLER. that the DEM
ocrats in Massachusetts tried to keep
the party so limited in numbers that
none would be disappointed in getting
Office when the other states elected a
president of the party. There is no
intimation that this is the policy of the
Vermont Democrats. Mr.. DOUGLAS
was born in that state, and said it was a
good state to be born in if one left it
early. The Democrats there have per-
haps followed his example and precept.
Those who remain deserve credit for
going through the motions in such ex-
cellent shape annually.

PROFIT SHARING.

Tie labor problems are not to be
solved and all friction removed in a
Gay. The millennium is not likely to be
inaugurated for some little time yet.
Theories are good to discuss and test,
but if there is any absolute panacea it
has not been brought to the general
view yet. Profit sharing has seemed to
many as among the most hopeful expe-
dients. 1t has not had any such wide
and protracted trial as to show its full
value. In the East the experiments of
this system have been more numerous
than elsewhere, and the results, as
stated, are in most cases extremely en-
couraging to those who have faith in
any recognition of the reciprocal feat
ure. In Philadelphia JOHN MANA
MAKER. who has about 1000 men IN
connection with his great store, has
for some years given his en-
ployes an interest in the bust
ness. The details of the plan are
not recalled, but the results are re-
garded as meeting reasonable anticipa-
tions. The service is pronounced more
efficient, and the participants all have
an increase in benefits. In recent
publication by EDWARD EVERETT
HALE. he gives the experience OF the
extensive iron and steel works of the
HI. 0. N elson Manufacturing company,
at st. Louis. This employs large
number of men, and has been for four
years dividing the profits with the en-
ployes. The plan has been to pay the
capital per cent and then divide the
remainder of the net earnings between
the owners and the workmen. This
has given the men four yearly divi-
dendS, the first of 5 and the others 10,
and 10 per cent. Then of the profits.
one-tenth each were placed in surplus
and provldent fund, under charge
of an organization of the men. From
this provident fund benefits are allowed
the disabled. sick, and the families Of
those who die. This is in proportion to
the needs of the sufferers. The men
can buy stock in the company if they
choose, and large proportion of them
have few hundred dollars each invest
ed. A savings bank holds a large part
of the earnings, and the general dispO-
sitiOn is to secure homes of their own.
The wages are, Of course, satisfactory,
nd there is no occasion for strikes.
The hours of labor have been reduced
from sixty to fifty-seven per week with
out any reduction in wages, and fur
Their shortening of the labor period is
contemplated, it being left optional
with the men. There are other incl
dents relating to the comfort and well
fare of the men, showing that the cor
poration has soul and is content with.

pertinent was under peculiarly favora

Who is the referee that will decide

serts that the tariff bill is not Repub-
licanism. Mr.. Mckinley insists that it
is. He says that the convention of '6S
declared it to be, and that this bill but
follows that declaration. Who should
know better than he? Hasn't he been
advised by all the infants what pro-
lection is? We are afraid that it is the
Pi-Press that does not know either what
Republicanism or protection is.

A STRONG movement has its head
quarters in New York to secure the pas
sage of the bill before congress to COM
pei brewers to return to the use Of malt
and hops in making lager beer. These
are said to have but one-third the place
they formerly had, and it is denied that
the aduIterants, which are very largely
brought from England, are healthful.
The beer is made at less cost, and looks
brighter, but is the cause of an increas-
ing class of diseases. The barley and
hop growers see this, and would have
the adulterated labeled as such, like
oleo. Beeri too largely consumed to
have any doubts in this matter.

HEN LoyEIs TRUE.

When love is true, no test it needs,
And from such does recoil.
IN confidence were sown its seeds
And confidence the fruitage Breeds
And jealousy and doubts are weeds
That spring from different soil.
When love is true. it seeks no test,
Nay. seorns to one impose;
If ranking fears thy heart infest.
Rest thou assured thy bosom's guest
Is only love in name at best,
And one of true loves subtlest foes.
When love is true, to love is right;
1t is the prize of heaven
Drop'd in the heart that makes 1t light,
The sieve that sits the soul pure white,
The God-illumin d beacon light
That points the nearest road to heaven
