Dom Piatt's Inventive Pen.

Cleveland Plaindealer.
1t Is not generally known that It was Dom
Piatt who relieved a long suffering world by
supplying the word "crank" in its present pecu-
liar and popular use. He was writing in his
paper. the Washington City Capital, which, I'M
der his editorship, was the most fearless, vigor-
Gus, aggressive and illustrious, as well as the
meanest journal in the land, of a well-known
journalist, now long since dead, whom he char
acterlzed as an appendage to coffee mill that
ceaselessly ground out hobbies. The term used
in this connection was at once made public
property, but il was not until applied to the
slayer Of Garfield that it found It's way to every.
body tongue. Twisting the British lions
tall 10 pet phrase derived from the same
source. Senator Zach Chandler In a speech in
the Senate chamb Der had taken occasion to ar.
raign the British government in unusually
severe terms, prompted presumably by the pres.
ence in the gallery of the British minister
When the next issue of the Capital appeared 1t
contained parodied version of the speech,
headed with the phrase mentioned that
set the entire country into roar that
wss echoed from across the ocean.
"The cave of the Winds" as applied to the ma
tonal House of Representatives, another WE'LL
known offspring of his pen. and "wanamak-
cred" a term of more recent invention, express.
i've OF the discharge of government employees on
political grounds, Is still another. But it Is in
fixing nicknames upon public men that
Colonel Piatt's wit in this line has been
most apt. The late William D. Kelley, of Penn
sylvania, owes half of his fame to the prefix OF
sold pig IRON" The distinguished father of the
House, instead of being annoyed at the popular.
ity which this phrase attained, thoroughly ap-
preciated how much of his success in politics he
owed to 1t, and took occasion once at q New
York dinner party to publicly thank Colonel
Piatt for bestowing it upon him. "Tha coru-fed
Cato OF Kansas" is a term, the general use OF
vrk fah hAe~ trr
ment OF Senator Ingalls, from public life. 1.-THE
organized ignorance of the country meaning
the Democracy, and "the organized greed"
otherwise known as the Republican party, are
phrases also widely quoted, while "legaiizsd
robbery" will be popular term as long as the
protective tariff Is tolerated. 1t was Piatt also
who nieknamed gentleman George" Pendle-

of tea and coffee. The foreign trade OF the
English Wholesale during the three
months ending September "a, 1890, was
about 81. 10000.
Starting IN 1854 with si2.2 capital, con-
tributed by retail societies that had Is. 337
members, its sales were over $3.50, 900 in
the first thirty weeks. In 1890 it had 72i,-
BIG members Of societies holding shares;
its share capital was s2,I70,085; its loans
and deposits, s4,124, $40; its insurance
fund. s776,l55; its total capital, s7.272,-
$50; its net sales for the year were
81, las, 265, and its total net profits, $685.
$50. Aside from the great mills and
factories conducted by the wholesale
societies, there were in Great Britain at
the end of 1889. 100 other societies that
made speciality of cooperative produc-
ton or manufacture, including hosiery,
Clothes, twine, watches, printing, rail
making, stone workers, -four mills, hard
ware, implements, machinery and engines,
boots and shoes. locks, etc. These
societies had d. $50 members, total capt.
tai of $i,3l9, $50. with land, machinery,
i"ftSLiaentS anu OLneF assets 10 tue
amount of s467s, 225.
The success Of cooperation in England
is shown by the fact that while in 1861 its
membership was 4s,1s4, its share capital
Sl,666, 450, and its trade $3.50, SIS, in 1880
its membership was 1,l17,055; its share
capital, s6l, 300, 760; its loan capital, 3d.
0ol60; its trade. s216,001 ,595; its profits,
2o,s5o, 100. Where properly managed and
adhering strictly to the Rochdale system,
cooperative distribution has certainly
proved magnificent success in Great
Britain, and can point to examples of sue
cess in America. In America co-operat-
i've stores were organized in 1850
in New England aud the Middle
states, but the stores were not
incorporated, and not being fed on
their profits gradually failed. The CO.
operative stores. like those organized by
the Grange in 1874, were not genuine CO.
operation after the model of the Rochdale
system of feeding cooperation on its
profits, but sold at cost and often on
credit, and were wrecked. The only
Grange stores that survive are either now
managed as joint stock enterprises or on
the Rochdale system.

NATIONAL CONVENTIONS.


The Republican National Committee
will decide within a few days where the
next Republican convention shall be held.
1t will probably be fixed for some time in
May. The rules require that six months
notice of the convention shall be given.
If the convention does not go to Chicago,
New York or Philadelphia is likely to be
selected. There is not the slightest prob
ability that either party will cross the
continent to hold it's convention in San
Francisco. The national conventions of
both the great national parties have
been held east of the Mississippi, saving
in 1876 and 1888 the Democracy went to
st. Louis to nominate a candidate for
defeat. Up to 1856, when the Democracy
went to Cincinnati to nominate Buchanan,
nearly all the national conventions had
been held either in Philadelphia or
Baltimore. The Republicans in 1860
went to Chicago to nominate Lincoln.
The Wings in 1910 assembled at Harris
burg, Pa, to nominate Harrison. The
Democrats held their fateful convention
of 1860 at Charleston. The choice of Balti-
more by the Republicans in 1864 was due
something to the fact that Lincoln's re-
nomination was assured in advance, and
he did not need local Western influences
to achieve success. Probably the same
reason gave Philadelphia the convention
in 1872 when Grant was renominated, but
since Fremont was nominated at Phila-
delphia in 1856. with the exceptions all
ready noted, the Republicans have held
their conventions at the West; at Cincin-
natl in 1876, and at Chicago in 1S60-6s-s0-
S4-sS.
The Democrats, on the other hand, have
held their convention in Chicago but once
since they nominated Mcclellan in
1864, going thither to nominate Cleveland
twenty years after. In 1865 the Democrats
nominated Seymour in New York city; in
1872, Greeley at Baltimore. Since 1872
neither Baltimore nor Philadelphia has
been the scene of a national convention Of
either party. In 1875 Tilden was nomi-
mated at st. Louis; in 1850 Hancock at
Cincinnati. OF twenty-six national con-
ventions of the two leading parties held in
fifty years. twelve were in the West. two
being in st. Louis, three in Cincinnati and
seven in Chicago. OF those in the East,
Baltimore had nine, Philadelphia three,
Harrisburg and New York one each, and
one met at Charleston, adjourning TO Bal
timore, which city has been honored with
more national conventions than Chicago,
although no convention has been held
there TOR nearly twenty years.

The Suez canal as a line of military COM
munication with India is regarded by emil
nent English soldiers as delusion and q
snare. The approach to the canal would
in time of war have to be protected by a
great fleet; not only this, but the canal it
self would have to be protected night and
day by large force. for fifty men, by
sinking something in it or throwing earth
into it. could make it impossible in fifty
minutes. Furthermore grea. improve
ment has taken place in communication
with India by the Cape of Good Hope. The
gain of the canal route in time over the
cape route is so small since the late i'm
provements in steam navigation that fewer
and fewer military men are disposed to
claim superiority for the canal, consider
ing the serious cost of protecting it dur
ing war with any European power, and
especially France. A railroad can be
easily repaired, but canal well cut or
filed up at good place is for practical
purposes of warfare hardly repairable.

THE LADY OF TEARS,

Through valley and hamlet and city,
Wherever humanity dwells,
With heart full of infinite pity,
A breast that with sympathy swells.
She walks in her beauty Immortal
Each household grows sad as she nears,
But she crosses at length every portal,
The mystical lady OF tears.
II never this vision OF sorrow
Has shaddowed your life in the past,
You Will meet her, know, some tomorrow
She visits all hearfhstones at last
To howell and cottage and palace,
TO servant and king she appears,
And offers the gall OF her chalice-
The unwelcome lady of tears.
To theieyes that have smiled but In gladness,
To the souls that have basked in the sun,
che seems In her garments of sadness,
A creature to dread and to shun.
And the lips that have drank but of pleasure
Grow pallid and tremble with fears,
AS she PORTIONS the gail from her measure,
The merciless lady of tears.
But in midnight, lone hearts that are breskiu z
With the agonized numbness of grief,
Are saved from the torture Of breaking,
By her bitter-sweet draught of relief
On, then do all graces unfold her,
Like goddess She looks and appears,
And the eyes overflow that behold her
The beautiful lady OF tears.
