Is IT always best to estimate profit in
dollars and cents? Is there not pleas
ure in watching and caring for all ami
mails? asks the Hartford Times. We
pay for amusemenss, and do not realize
how much each day these dumb animals
help to divert the mind from care and
worry. each in turn giving a homeike
feeling. and in their mute way doing
their share toward making happy
home, of which fact, however, we may
be unconscious.

OUR people throw away their bulls
generally after using them two or three
years, says an Iowa paper. They do not
seem to know that well-bred Short-horn
bulls bring high prices for exporting if
we'll fed. It is one of the characteristic
wastes of our farmers. A thin bull is
not worth big price. Two cents a
pound buys the most of them. They
fatten rapidly and sell for four cents in
Chicago if first rate.
The little principality of Wales is

THE CASE OF QUAY.

His Election to tho Senate Not q Vindica-
ton OF His Character.
Since Mr.. NJ. S. Quay, United States
Senator from Pennsylvania, was charged
on specific evidence with being thief.
sufficient time has elapsed to make it
plain that he will not hazard an investi-
CATION. He has neither asked justice
from the Senate nor from the courts
where he might secure 1T, if innocent,
by suits against the newspapers publish
ing the evidence on which is based the
charge of larceny against him.
His subordinates ia the Pennsylvania
Republican State Committee have
asserted that he has been indicated by
his election to Office subsequent to the
time when it is alleged that he COM
mitted the thefts from the treasury Of
Pennsylvania. This view of the case is
mistaken one. The charges hitherto
made have been in vague hin ts-chiefiy
in the form of threats from Republicans
that they would lift the lid Off the
State treasury in case Quay pursued a
course indicated by them as one he must
not pursue. The ends here sought were
not the ends of justice. but of political
blackmail, and the fact that the lid was
not lifted - that compromises were
effected as result of which Quay was
sent to the Senate instead of to the
penitentiary, where it was intimated he
might go in the event of exposure
merely suggests that Quay preferred
blackmailing coercion to the necessity
of explanation and defense incident to
the ''lifting of the lid" It can not be
claimed with reason that his election
was an expression Of popular conf
dence in his innocence Of the crime of
theft, the public at that time having
had none of the evidence submitted to it.
But even if it were otherwise, cleo
ton to the Senate does not condone
felony or make a felon innocent of crime
committed prior to bis election If Quay
prior to and during his term as Treas
urer of Pennsylvania distracted money
from the treasury and used it for his
private purposes, he is felon whether
or not the felony was afterward COM
pounded through his own efforts or tho
efforts of others
1t seems to Us impossible for the Sen
ate to escape this view on the agreed
case. Nor is it to be denied that if Quay
is felon, as appears prinaa facie on the
evidence, it is the duty of the Senate to
expel him. A resolution for that pur-
pose would be the proper and formal
method of securing justice both to the
Senate and to Quay.-St Louis Repub-
lie.

Lessons Of Recent Elections.

These popular expressions are pointed
admonitions to the President, to his
Cabinet and to his majority party in
both branches of Congress They mean
that revolutionary Government ended
with the necessities of war years ago,
and that no party can return to it with
cut annihilation; they mean that war
taxes in time of peace, for the benefit of
select classes. will be overwhelmingly
resented by the masses, and they mean
that National profiigacy must give way
to honest Government Such are the
plain, emphatic lessons OF the recent
elections; will thry be heeoed in Wash
ingtOn? If not. be prepared to battle in
desperation to save even Pennsylvania

districts Mr.. Wheeler, of Alabama,
and Mr.. Crisp, of Georgia, speaking for
their States, denied Mr.. Rowelfs charge.
Mr.. Crisp asked Mr.. Randell to ac-
count for the silence Of forty per cent
of the vote of Maine and Massachusetts,.
Mr.. Rowell replied that it was not in
presidential year.
Mr.. Breckenridge and Mr.. Rowell had
a dispute over the circumstance Of the
formers election, during which, Mr..
McRae, of Arkansas, admitted that
armed men rode about the polling pla-
ces in that State in Powell Clayton's
time but said there had been better
times since.
Mr.. Lehlbach, of New York, opposed
the bill on the ground that, while frauds
occurred in many districts it would be
wiser to let the people of the several
States regulate their own elections. He
thought the law, if enacted, should be
uniformly applicable and not dependent
upon the petition of any number of citi-
zeGs.
MIR. Tucker, Of Virginia, opposed the
bill on constitutional grounds Under
it, he said, the supervisors were to de-
termine the qualifications of voteFs-a
right reserved to the States. He said
Congress should take charge of elections
absolutely. or leave them entirely to the
States. The only way to correct fraud
was by enlightened public sentiment,
which would frown it down.
The House, at 3:25. adjourned.
