the largest and finest ceramic art in ia

the result Of years Of patient search,

judge Kelley.

By the death of Judge William Darrah
Kelley, the title of Father of the House of
Representatives falls on that other emil
nent Pennsylvania, Samuel J. Randall
from Republican to Democrat, but also
from high protectionist to high protec-
zionist.
Judge Kelley had represented the same
district in congress twenty nine years
without a break, longer period than
any other member ever served. Kelley
was another American who found the
road to distinction through a printing
office, though he afterwards studied law.
He was of Scotch-Irish extraction, like
Horace Greeley, and possessed many of
the same staying qualities that THAT blood
gives.
Judge Kelley was also called the Father
of Protection in America. 1t is remark
able, however, that he began life both a
free trader and Democrat. But he was
Democrat who opposed slavery, and at
the founding of the Republican party in
1856 he joined that. Ten years before,
however, he had changed from free
trader to high tariff advocate.
Bnt the highest and best that can be
said of him is this: He was member of
congress twenty-nine years, and in all
that time his perfect honesty was never
questioned.

The Ideal Newspaper.

George William Curtis says it will be
moro Independent politically. j. B. Nc
Cullagh, of the ST. Louis Globe Demo
crat, says:
The Journalistic procession is marching on,
picking up IDEAS as it goes. The newspapers are
improving every day. each foraging ON the others
and on its surroundings for what is new and ap-
pears to be good One manifest tendency is to
reduce the criminal record in space and impor-
tance, and to increase the social record.
Hon. Amos Cummings says the ideal
newspaper will give all the news. At
present he defes anybody to get from
any newspaper in the Union an intelli-
gent idea of what congress or his own
state legislature is doing.
y number Of gentlemen distinguished
in politics declare that the ideal news
paper will give both sides of a story, and
not color it to suit the party. Murat
Halsteal, honest man, remarks:
l don't know anything about an ideal news
paper If a paper makes money and is what the
proprietor desires it 10 be in the way of serving
news, then do not Sc, why he should trouble his
imagination about an Utopiau journal that may
come along about the millennium
Mr.. Halstead seems to have lost his
ideals.
Gen. George S. Batcheller, assistant
secretary of the treasury, believes that
newspaper would make great success
which should omit personalities and So
ciety notices from its columns.
One might also add that the ideal
newspaper of the future will certainly
not devote two columns to telling how a
woman goes to bed.

An ImnSrial Lady.

The death of Empress Augusta recalls
many forgotten stories of her and her
imperial husband. William and Augusta
never cared a farthing for each other
except in q friendly way. Each had
been heart broken before they met, be-
cause, being royalties, they were not al
lowed to marry where they loved. Bnt
they were always polite to each other.
She foved art and he loved the art of
war.
In her youth Augusta was royalty
beautiful. and possessed gift which is
better even than be2uty-exquisite tact,
the power of saying and doing just the
right thing in the right place. 1t comes
from the spirit of unsclfishness. The
fine tact she kept always, but her rare
beauty she lost, and in her latter days
the poor oil lady was sight to behold,
it is SAID, with shriveled face, painted
cheeks ana coal black wig. a good cpl
taph of her would be that she loved art
and hated Bismarck.
She and William appeared together in
good style on public occasions. But no
particular attention was ever attracted
to her publicly until the Frauco-Prussian
war, when William began to send her
from the battlefield devout and affec-
tionate kilograms on the success Of the
German arms.
London Punch at the time caricatured
one of these dispatches as follows:
By grace divine, my dear Auguster,
We've had another awful buster,
Ten thousand Frenchmea sent below,
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!

Our Agricultural Exports.

For the year ending June 30, 1889, our
agricultural exports amounted to $685.
141, ,490. These exports reached high
water mark in 1881, when their value
was $3.50, 1894, ,943. Since that time they
have been falling off irregularly, till
they are now nearly 100000, 900 below
1881.
The decline has been in meat and
breadstuffs, chiefly. While agricultural
products have been falling off, manu-
featured products have been gaining in
the amount cnd value of goods export
ed. This is some compensation, but
still the amount is not nearly large
enough to make up for the loss on agri-
culture.
It is not without reason that farmers
have been complaining of hard times for
the past few years. Times have indeed
been terribly hard for many of them.
Low prices made the trouble part OF the
time. The cause of the low prices is be-
ginning to be understood. 1t comes
largely from the competition of Russia,
Egypt and India in the wheat field. 1t
is cause that will not diminish with
time, but rather increase.
The United States still raises fourth
of the worlds wheat, but if the coun-,
tries named gain on us as they are do
ing, this cannot continue. Times may
be yet harder for the American farmer
before he sees his way out. Under the
circumstances, there is only one remedy.
That will be in the direction of improved
and varied agriculture. The farmer
must bring all the resources of intelli-
gence and practical science to bear on
the case, and help himself out. He
must learn to raise larger crops on a
given space, and SO hold his own. in spite
of low prices. That is one remedy. An
other is to study the agricultural re-
sources of our country and vary the
crops, SO that the tiller of the soil shall
have several articles to sell instead Of
only one. The south has never been so
prosperous as since she has taken to
raising her own corn, pork and garden
vegetables along with her cotton.
Morris tribune., 1890-01-15

Ice men, like the coal men and heavy
overcoat men, have been shrouded in
gloom because OF the weather. Whence
will the ice come for next summer?
Well, why do they not learn the method
of making artificial ice? It has been
brought to such perfection now that the
manufactured article is cleaner and
soldier than the natural one. 1t can be
made all the year round, in the most
southerly cities of the Union as easily as
anywhere else. Let us fall back on manu-
factured ice. Then, next summer, if ice
of all kinds is scarce. let us keep cool
ourselves anyhow. Scarcity of ice cam
not affect the person who does that.

To Preserve the Public Schools.

The National League for the Protection
Of American Institutions has been found
ed and Incorporated. Among its charter
members are Gen. Clinton B. Fisk, John
Jay and Professor Hjalmar H. Boyesen.
The first American institution the
league will take under its protecting care
is the American public school. They will
fight to the bitter end the appropriation
of public moneys for sectarian schools of
any kind. Professor Boyesen has found
that American history is distorted in
text books prepared for use in sectarian
schools. The league opposes especially
the parochial school system. Sectarian
schools, Professor Boyesen says, tend to
split the people of a country into little
cliques and sects and to destroy the feel
ing of large nationalism and patriotism.
He thinks the parochial school system is
largely to blame for the feud between
English and French in Canada. He says:
The common schools are those through which
foreigners and the sons of foreigners should pass
in order to become good American citizens, and
we feel that the appropriation of state national
funds for the purpose of sustaining the parochial
schools would serve, instead Of making those who
attend them American citizens to raise up sec
ond or third generation of foreigners in our midst
who would be just as ignorant of American insti.
tutions and Just as devoid of the true American
feeling as their ancestors the emigrants, were.

The death of Judge Kelley makes one
more gap in the fast thinning ranks of
the founders of the Republican party.
John Sherman in the senate, and the ven
erable n. P. Banks in the house of rep
resentatives, are now almost the only
prominent ones left. Banks was the
first Republican speaker of the house.
