"A member of the Farmers ALI
lance was IN yesterday. He did some
figuring on political probabilities in
this county. Here are his figures.
He says there are all told about 1, 700
members of the Alliance in the coun-
ty. Of these about half or say $50
only are voters. Probably ten per
cent have left the county. That
would leave IT'S voters. At the last
election 2515 votes in all were polled
in this county. Probably ten per cent
have left. That would leave 1854
voters of all parties. The Farmers
Alliance then have nearly one-third
of all the votes in the county. IF they
vote solidly for the peoples Ticket
they will not be successful unless
they get large number of votes out
side of their own ranks Quite a num-
Der of Farmers Alliance members
will vote the Republican ticket. From
these figures it would seem that the
result of the election is one of the un-
certanties. It seems to be. certain
that a goodly number of Democrats
intend to support a part of the Re
publican county ticket. IF this is the
case than it is pretty certain that some
OF the candidates ifnpt all on the Re-
publican ticket will be elected.

TROUBLE IN MILWAUKEE,.

The preparations for the great Pyth-
ian conclave ut Milwaukee have been
somewhat disturbed by a fight between
the resident Knights and the brewers
of that city OF beer. Besides large in
dividual subscriptions the brewers as
an organization subscribed $4,000, with
the promise that in case of a deficiency
this amount would, ii necessary, be
doubled. of course this generosity
was based upon the presumption that
the visiting Knights of Pythias would
consume vast quantities of beer, and
that the local Knights would put no
stumbling blocks in the road to that
end. When, therefore, an order was
issued prohibiting all beer from the
drill grounds, the brewers waxed wroth
and threatened To withdraw their sub
scription unless the obnoxious order
was revoked. The committee of ar
rangements, provoked in return threat
EN- 10 boycott the local brewers and inn
port enough 1t. Louis beer to satisfy
the thirst of the visitors.
IL is to he hoped that the
unpleasantness will he adjusted
without resorting to such eX-
IRENE measures. Carrying beer TO Mil
waukee is a far more preposterous
proposition than conveying Goals to
Newcastle. IL would be casting II foul
slur upon the one industry that has
made Milwaukee famous. The order
of the Knights of Pythias is one of the
grandest organizations in the world,
and from the standpoint of a Milwaukee
citizen il would be too bad to permit
the delegates 10 the conclave to carry
away with them such disagreeable i'm
pressions of Milwaukee as the taste of
1t. Louis beer would assuredly give
them.

The recent preliminary meeting of
the worlds fair commissioners in Chi
cage accomplished very little beyond
affecting a partial preliminary organi-
cation. IL seem to be the impression
among the commissioners that Chicago
has not reached a realizing u of the
extent of the undertaking which it has
agreed to carry out, and the immense
work that il will be called upon to per-
form, both rs to preparation and in the
management of the fair. AS yet there
is no system, no definite plan, but on
the contrary, = confusion of ideas and
lack OF executive ability. In one re-
spect, however, Chicago is accomplish
ing a great deal. Nothing under the
sun since this world began its career,
has received anything like the amount
of advertising that this fair is re-
ceiving.

in the land is firmly convinced that it

other city has been or possibly could
be. No set of people were ever so d
spised as the census enumerators, n

during the late unpleasantness will
have TO guard the secret through life

nable crime.

lie brings some excellent references
from Mr.. Ingersoll and other thinkers
10 whom Greek, Choctaw and
Chinese are one and the same
thing, but IL one may go behind the
returns it may not be improper or ir-
relevant TO ask what did Socrates
teachy In his own day he was ac-
cused of being a corrupter Of the NOR
ais of youth; and there was on the
whole rather more opposition to Socra-
ties at that time than there is to the
Bible in the public schools in the pres
ent day. succeeding generations have
regarded him in a much more favora-
BILE light, nor car any n deny that he
wal a brainy and highly intellectual old
fellow. Yet the system of morals that
Socrates taught differs In vital respects
from that commonly accepted in the
present day and generation by Catho-
lies, Professionals, Hebrews, iniidels and
agnostics alike. His views on the So
cial evil, for instance, would not be toll
Grated in any civilized community.
Any man who taught as Socrates did.
that houses of prostitution should be
maintained by the state as a wise and
beneiicent institution, would live in
danger of tar and feathers. Nor would
any modern religious denomination,
orthodox or heterodox, indorse the
opinions which Socrates held and assid-
uously taught to the community i'm
which he lived regarding suicide and
similar questions affecting human life.
Whether or not the Bible is out of
place in the public schools, Socrates as
u moral instructor certainly is,

A Doctor of Laws.

From the Kansas city Times.
Bowdoin conferred upon Thomas B.
Reed the degree of doctor of laws. The
same day saw Mr.. Reed looking after the
health of the worst law of the session, and
his most emphatic words during the after
loon were couchcd in this elegant and
classic form: SHOW in hell did that fell
low get the floor?" B~owdoin's compli-
mcnt to Mr.. Reed was appropriate and
deserved. Doctor Reed has discovered
new ways of bolstering the strength OF
laws. To him is due the majority McKin-
lcy's tariff revision received. lie cuts off
the cold draughts of debate, whips i'm

gcons and makes the veal strong, the

The question of prohibition is ser
iously troubling France. The agitation
assumes a somewhat different aspect
compared with the agitation in this
country. for the French prohibitionists
are combining their attention not to
liquors but TO American hogs. The
political economists Of Paris have
made the profound discovery that the
importation of American hogs is only
another mode of importing American
corn, OF which a duty of three francs
has been placed. II would " that
