THE spoILsMEN's PROPHET.

This would be very poor world with
out CARTER HARRISON. That unique
type OF Western craftsmanship unbur-
thened himself at the JACKSON BAN
quet at Denver in speech which
closed with the following remarkable
statement: "They say we must be hon
est, and L try to be. Yet say to you
Democrats of the West it is politics
that wins" This sentence was the
close of a speech which had been
iiercely invectiye against GROVER
CLEVELAND, and virulently abusive of
the CLEVELAND reform policy. The
logical reading between the lines, then,
of that concluding sentence is that if
the Democrats remain honest in their
support of tariff reform they cannot
hope to win political victories, but if
they abandon principle and adopt the
shrewd political tactics of the opposi-
ton they can gain control of the gov
ernment once more. And it is lust
mt this point we would like to ask Mr..
HARRISON or those Democratic leaders
who think as he thinks, of what adYan-
tage would it be to the country TO have
q Democratic administration without
the enforcement of Democratic princi-
pies? If the mere benefit that is TO be
derived from distribution of spoils is
all that is to be gained by Democratic
ascendency, then the spoilSmen of the
CARTER HARRISON type might Just as
well pack their baggage and remove
over into the Republican camp. 1t
happens. however, that the rank and
: file of the Democratic party do not view
Democratic success in the light that
CARTER HARRISON sees it. IL thew
cannot win in an honest fight for princi-
pie they prefer to stay in the minority.
Honesty counts for more than politics
with the masses. If it be true that
politics, which is another name for dis
aonest and corrupt methods, is the only
winning card, then those who are Dem
ocrats from principle prefer that some
other party should win all the victories.
But it IS not true. CARTER HARRISON
has deceived himself into doing inius-
.icetO the memory of ANDREW JACK
son by indulging such an un-Demo-
:ratic sentiment on the anniversary of
he oil hero's birthday. JACKSON be-
ieved that the Offices belonged to the
victorious party, but he never encour-
aged the belief that it was necessary to
sacrifice principle in order to obtain
possession of the offices.

IF.

Dear love, II you and l could sail away,
With snowy pennons to the world IN
furled,
And find some island far from ali the
world;
If we could dwell there, evernnore alone,
While unrecorded years slipped by apaee
Forgetting and forgotten and unknown
By aught save Natures song birds Of the
place:
II winter never visited that land,
And summers cup spilled Ger with fruits
and flowers,
And tropfc trees cast shade on every hand.
And twining boughs formed sleep-inyiting
bowers;
If from the fashions of the world set free
And hid away from all its jealous strife,
lived alone for you, aud you for me,
All, then, dear love, how sweet were we'd
ded life.
But since we dwell here in the crowded way.
Where lurrying throngs rush by to seek for
And all is commonplace ana work.a-day.
As soon as loves young honeymoon grows
old;
Since fashion rules and nature yields to art,
And life is hurt by daily jar and fret,
IT'S best TO shut such dreams down in the
heart
And go ones way alone, love. aud forget.

An Early mission.

Persons who lived in New England,
and perhaps other Eastern states. in the
last generation recall great contrast
in the methods of candidacy for high
offices. There was Il popular notion
tilat ii was unbecoming for man to
solicit support for himself. Even in the
eases of persons who wished to go to the
legislature, if they were known to ''but-
tonhOle" voters, the fact created a very
damaging prejudice. Public speakers
who asked for votes for themselves
would lose rather than gain. The con-
traSt with the present method was spe-
cially noticeable in the election of
United States senator. There was no
opening of headquarters of candidates,
with the establishments and etceteras
now common. When Sumner was first
elected i'll Massachusetts there was a
contest of many weeks, and the result
was in great doubt. He refused to go
out of his Office, or even speak to mem
Der of the legislature. George S. Bout
well refused to leave his seat in the
senate to work for reelection when his
presence was wanted at Boston. He
said he did not know how to electionepr
for himself. The education of eandi-
dates has no such omission now.

Can He Do 1t?
Mankato Free Press.

The Free Press puts no eredence in
the rumnred candidacy of ex-Gov. Nc
Gill, but that he wi | do his level best
to ''knock out Merriam" is most likely.
Others with less revengful natures, UNI
der like circumstances, would do the
same. No one will criticise MIR. Nc
Gill in every honest endeavor he may
put forth in this "knOrking OUT project.
But the question resolves itself back to
first principles, ''can he dO it?" There
is no doubt that a powerful combine is
trying to be worked to this end, and,
with McGlll-S cheffer-Fletcher at the
helm. no doubt something of an airy,
it not substantial, nature may be waited
forth from the Twins.

A RARE CASH

The deplorable fatality in the case of
the preacher in West Virginia. who
fell dozen feet in a Masonic lodge by
the unlOosng of a rope in the tackIing,
gives an erroneous impression as to the
severity of the ordeal. The inquest
showed that his death was caused by
heart failure induced by the shock, and
that no external injuries were discoy-
cred. Probably no secret order that in
dulges i'll mysterious processes exists
that does not have passages quite as
much calculated to startle. No man
with heart trouble would be wise to en-
counter their surprises. 1t is said hy
Masons that the more general way for
the candidate to descend into the pit
into which Rev. JOHNSON fell is by a
ladder, but person might fall Off
ladder. Even goat might throw an III
experienced man. Instances of serious
accidents in any of the initiatory rites
of secret orders are among the rarest
occurrences of life.

AhoSO O&OlC L TIC puuiIC IldNC one
right that the street
Car Jerks. railway company can
not deprive them Of
it is the right of grumbling. And they
are making good use of it. A we'll
founded complaint against the cable
company relates to the habit of Jerking
passengers off of their feet before they
have a chance to. be seated. This is
done by starting the "ars too soon The
cable is running at its regular speed all
the time, aud the moment the grip
cllncheS it the car is jerked forward with
a suddennesS which will disturb the
equilibrium of the best-balanctd man
in the world. Ii produces an uncom-
Portable sensation for the strongest and
healthiest, and is an absolute torture to
the weak and nervous. The gripmen
and conductors explained that they have
to run on schedule time, and have no
time for waiting at the street crossings
until the passengers are seated. If this
is true, then the city council should
compel the company to revise its
schedule so as to give ample
time for passengers to get on and
take their seats before the car starts.
There is an implied contract between
the public aud every common carrier
that all reasonable accommodations
Sndil DC aHOrded by the latter. This is
the law, and it should be enforced. 1t
is nothing more tfan reasonable that a
passenger on entering a car should
have time to get to his seat before the
train starts. If the cable train moved
off gradually increasing its speed, as a
railway train does, there would be no
serious complaint on this score. But
when it starts with bound and jerk,
pitching passengers hither and thither,
there is an absolute necessity for bet
ter system of making stops and starts.
