Cabinet of the President who has kept
awake and maintained a place in the
minds of the American people and Of
foreign nations has done SO purely upon
his own lines. The Pan.American con.
ference, farcical as it was In some re.
spects, was at least talked about, and
the reciprocity issue, which the Secre.
tary OF State forced upon an unwilling
administration, is the only rational
| suggestion that has come from any
member of the party in power since
that power was gained.
1t is not strange that Harrison is so
obscure, for he has been pitiable nom
entity during every hour since he was
inaugurated. He has not only done no
good but, as an individual and as Pres-
dent he has not had character enough
to do any harm. He has delegated all
his malign powers to the Quays, the
Reeds and the McKinleys of his follow.
ing.
If he is even now so nearly forgotten,
what will the historian say of him! 1t
amust be that he will be placed in the
most undignified position of any man
who has held the exalted Office of Presi-
dent in our time and he is certainly en-
titled to no better classification. 1t
seems shame to say even so much in
criticism of him, for of the dead, even
the political dead, we should not speak
unless we can conscientiously praise.
Harrison died, politically, when the last
Republican cheer of the campaign of
1883 returned in echo. Detroit Free

Gloom of the Dead Sea.

One of the most interesting lakes OF
Inland seas in the world is the Dead
Sea, which has no visible outlet. 1t is
not mere fancy which has clothed the
Dead Sea in perpetual gloom. The
desolate shores, with scarcely green
thing in sight, scattered over with black
stones and ragged driftwood, forms q
lifting frame for the dark, sluggish
waters, overhung with a continual
mist and breaking in slow, heavy
sepulchral-toned waves upon the beach.
1t almost seems as il the smoke
from the wicked cities OF Sodom and
Gotnorrah, which lie at it's bottom, was
yet ascending up to Heaven, and as if
the moan of their fearful sorrow would
never leave the death-smitten valley.
1t Is strange thing to see the waves,
not dancing along and sparkling in the
sun as other waves do, but moving with
measured melancholy and breaking up
on tho shore with scarcely a sound-a

THREE HONEST MEN.

Paddock, Plumb and Pettigrew, the He
roes of the Republican Party.
Senators Paddock, Pettigrew and
Plumb deserve the applause of their
constituents and of the people of the
West generally for their votes against
the Mckinley bill,
Placed as they were in an atmosphere
OF monopoly and surrounded by the
agents OF the protected combines, they
mad every reason to Ego with their

they resisted the threats of party
whippers-in and the Establishments OF
fat-fryers and pluhderers. In doing
right they abandoned their party and
advertised themselves to the trusts as
Republicans who are not to be depended
upon to further every villainy devised
for the oppression of the people. The
enemies they have made will not forget
them. The people whom they have
served should have equally long mem-
cries,
The Herald considers this Western
Republican bolt against the monopoly
tariff as one of the most hopeful signs
OF the times, and it regards it as most
honorable thing for Republicanism.
Henceforth no one shall say truthfully
that no Republican dare lift his voice
against these evils. Three honest and
brave men from the West have not

Those acquainted with him from boyhood
