HAusER,s POSITION.

The explanation by Gov. HAUsER in
Saturdays GLOBE of the situation in
Montana, as related to his action and
that of the Democrats, relieves it of any
possible impression that personal aspir-
ations have been allowed to impair the
strength of the Democratic position. If
the governor was DESTROYS to represent
the young state in the senate, his ambi-
ton had none of the selfish features that
would imperil general interests. The
Democrats out there have had more
than ample material, of the best quality,
for that station; and HAUsER would
give one of the largest of the new seats
full occupancy. His course, as eX-
planned, Will commend itself to the care
full Judgment of the party there, in
terpreted by urgent local interests.
AS matter of principle every Demo-
Graf would be reluctant to concede any
thing III compromise. The natural i'm
puloe would be to demand the full rights
or lose all. 1t is evident that the GOV
ernor was right in insisting that to or
ganize the senate under the circum-
stances was to lose the strong position.
Other cOunSelS prevailed, and others
were designated to carry fragmentary
ensignS to Washington. 1t is not prob
able that the senate will seat any of
the contestants, The governor will be
saved the prosecution of fruitless mis-
sion, so far as the immediate parties to
it are concerned. 1t is gratifying to be-
lieye that its embarrassments have hot
been multiplied by his counsel or acts.

Down On 1t.

The cigarette, no doubt, has many
friends, but it is likely to give them ex-
ercise to save it from overthrow. Many,
perhaps most, of the states OF cities
have prohibited its sale to boys, and
further advance against it is inau-
gurated in Kentucky. which is not
exactly the region one would look
to for arbitrary restraints upon habits.
The old and conservative capital of the
state, Frankfort, has, by unanimous
vote of its council, absolutely prohibited
the sale of cigarettes in that city. The
legislature is in session there now, and
interviews reported with the members
indicate that they will take the matter
up and make it state law. Such ac-
ton in state so neighborly with the
tobacco interests, and where the use is
SO universal, and which has no profess
sional refOrmers to speak of, will be
easily taken up by other states, and it
will not be surprising should the al
legged baneful article soon need an cpl
taph.

WHO OPPOsE Ir2

IhlS canteen business introduced in
the army has the combined and organ
lied opposition of the post traders to
meet. as would be natural with those
suddenly deprived of an avocation with
lucrative opportunities. They have
vigorous allies, or co-workers, in the
people who follow the leader ship of the
ST. JOHNS and their ilk. The war de-
partment has evidently anticipated an
onset from both these quarters, and has
tried to meet it In advance by giving to
the press something of the workings of
the new system, with the Endorsements
OF military people. The canteen is a
cooperative business and social club,
under the control and supervision of the
government. Under some restraints it
furnishes the men beer, wine, liquors,
as well as tobacco and most
all things wanted by the sol
diers. 1t makes the government a
participation in the liquor bust
mess about as Vice President MORTON
is i'll the irrigation feature of the
Shoreham. When HAYES was presi-
dent he issued special order that the
has been dead letter. There is no oues-
ton that more or less liquor will be had,
and the war department thinks it bet
ter that pure article should be dis
pensed under the direction of a COM
mlSSioned officer than to have it sur
reptiti0usly obtained of irresponsible
parties outside. The radical temp er-
ance view doesn't concern itself about
the quality or the fact that il is sold by
the post traders. 1t is the connection
of the government with the matter that
disturbs. However, the good people in
the White house and cabinet are not
disturbed, and it is probable that the
sale will go on under the sanction of the
secretary of war. Congress will proba-
bly, appropriate something to pay the
traders for their buildings, and they
will be known no more about military
quarters.

his hair. He was always a man
who had keen sense of the pro-
prieties and could adapt himself to his
company. About the time Mr.. BRIcE
came to the surface the new method of
railroad building had come into vogue.
The method was to organize a railroad
company to build new line, to bond it,
and then to let the contract for building
the road to construction company at
about double what the road would act
ually cost. The construction company
usually consisted of the men who were
the chief officials of the road, and they
pocketed the profits ON the contract for
building it. The road would never pay
dividend, and usually defaulted in the
interest on-its bonds; but the construe-
ton company accumulated wealth. A
good many of the Ohio miIltonaires got
their wealth in that way. 1t is a singu-
lar fact nowadays that when
man accumulates million of dol
lars he imagines he has acquired
all the qualifications necessary for
craftsmanship, and at once sets
about to break into the United
States senate. CAL BRIcE Is perhaps as
good a type of the modern American
statesman as can be found either in
Ohio or out of it. He is an active, ag-
gressive man, and will make himself
felt in whatever sphere he may be
thrown. He belongs essentially to the
new school of politics that is, he knows
very little about party principles, and
cares less. He merely looks upon party
organization as means to business
end. He doesn't bother his head about
Jeffers0nian theories or Jacksonian
doctrine. He Is too busy man to spend
time in the study of questions that are
barred by limitation. He is about as
good Democrat as CHARLIE FOSTER
is Republican. Both of them are
long ways from being an ALLEN THUR
MAN or a JAMES A. GARFIELD.

The Christian Union is not probably
one of the publications to which TAIL
MAGE contributes any of his versatile
illusions. 1t doesn't enthuSe over the
manner of the dramatic preacher in dis
cussing his efforts. 1t speaks of him as
tramplng over the Bible lands and emit
ting each Sunday "a vapid and per-
functory DISCOURSE" to be cabled and
sold to the American newspapers. This
suggests to it the role of the Snowman
and a commercial theology. Perhaps
its difficulty would be relieved by the
theory that the sparkling imagination
of the preacher enables him to dictate
to his typewriter his peripatetic dis
courses in advance of the tour. Their
value could hardly be affected by any
question as to their actual delivery.

SWEET LAND OF DIRE AM.

Oh. could I unfurl
The bright wings of thought.
And fly TO the sweet land of dream,
Where love ne'er grows cold
And we ne'er grow old
Aud all things are just as they seem.
I'd walk through the fields
OF heavens deep blue,
And gem with gold stars my dark hair;
And garlands I'd twine
Of fancies so fine
To wreathe round my body so fair.
I'd wrap myself close
In bright sunset clouds,
And sink with the sun god TO rest;
OF love he would speak,
And kiss my soft cheek,
And sootne me to sleep on his breast.
My feet would grow light
AS butterflies are,
And al things would he as deem;
Ny heart there would bloom
And throw out perfume.
III that beautiful land of dream.

A Peculiar
Senator.


Senator. gallery, sag the New
York Tribune, one
would be more apt to take him to be
college professor than senator of the
United States. He usually sits quietly
in his seat, as if absorbed in thought,
and up to the present time has not made
many speeches. He is somewhat alb
sent-minded. and certain habits get q
strong hold upon him. 1t is said that
in 1S74-75 when he was speaker of the
lower branch of the Indiana legisIa-
ture, he would do some queer things.
Whenever a roll call was ordered he
would pound OH the desk until every
thing was perfectly quiet. Then in
rather moderate tone of voice he
would say:
1.-The roll will be called. Those vot-
ing in the affirmative, will, when their
names are called, say aye those in
the negative no.
Then. as quick as a flash, he would
turn to the reading clerk, and in loud,
shrill voice would say:

were from time to time asked to offer

Speaker Turpie raped on the desk and
said:

Will be offered by Rev. Mr. Smith. of

Then, just as the reverend gentleman
bowed his head to begin the prayer, he
was startled by hearing the speaker

SUNDAY CHATTER.

Captious people sometimes ridicule
the habit most people have of referring
to the weather on meeting. A young
lady who affects to rise above the COM
monplace, into the eSthetic and literary,
yesterday morning pettishly responded
to the good-natured suggestion of a
passing acquaintance, sit SHOWS"
H"Just as if didn't know that Aside
from the lack of courtesy and the bad
taste, there was lack of comprehen-
sion of social philosophy. There is no
expectation of adding to Information or
occaSioning any surprise by such obser-
yations, but it is not mere chatter, or iu-
dicative of mental vacuity. 1t is step
beyond the formal recognition of the
nod or perfunctory salutation. 1t is an
indication of kindliness, and desire to
induce pleaSurable feeling. Then, when
strangers or casual acquaintance meet,
the atmospheric conditions dc excellent
service. They establish a common
the actual facts; there is al
ways among well-mannered people per-
feet agreement as to the weather. If
you think it is growing colder and the
acquaintance says, 1.-The weather is a
little milder," you will promptly re-
spond to that view. If you are sweat
ing as you enter a stIeet ear and a
lady friend says it sis cold again." you
will indorse her fiction. 1t is the one
common platform for all; nobody would
impeach your veracity or general good
sense if you were little off from the
facts. It's a great social convenience
to have climate that is uncertain and
variable. In countries where one day
is certain to be just like another, some
substitute has to be found for the
weather as the social small change.
Perfect serenity would be m0nstrous
and commonplace. The Oriental per-
sonal palaver is notas sensible and serv-
iceable as the uncertain and changing
weather.

That Audi
toriun and
Library
Building.


an auditorium and public library build
ing, it is evidently good time to strike.
Two gentlemen of wealth have made
public their Willingness to contribute
literally to the object. and others are
said to have the matter in serious con-
temptation. We have never made such
progress before, and we can't afford to
let the movement retrograde. 1t must
be pushed forward. There is no cues
ton but that the necessary amount can
be raised and will be raised. There are
some preliminary matters to be disposed
of first, and they should be considered
without delay. First, it must be deter
mined what sort of building
we want, and the probable cost.
Then the question of location must
be disposed of. In additi n to a
library building we need an audi
fortuna place to accommodate the ed
ucational convention next Summor, and
one that will answer for similar pur-
poses in the future. The location
should be an eligible one-that is, in a
respectable part of the city and easily
accessible. There is no necessity for
buying piece of ground, because the
city already owns all the ground that is
needed for public buildings. Smith
park has been suggested, and the site
of the old city hall near Rice park. Sum-
nit park has been mentioned, but the
objection urged that it is too far from
the hotels. The same objection is made
to Indian Mound park on the bluff, al
though a lovely outlook could be had
from either site. Central park is advo-
Gated by good many as the proper
place to locate the auditorium. Still, in
the multitude of eligible sites, there
ought to be no difficulty in getting a
suitable one, and it should be donated
to the city. All the money subscribed
should go into the building, and when
the subscription books are closed, if the
amount is not sufficient to put up Just
such building as we ought to have, let
the deficiency made up by an anpropria-
ton from the city treasury. Wherever
or however it is to be built, let us make
sure that it is built.
