THE GERMAN SITUATION.

At the coming session of the German
reichstag, witch will reassemble on Nov,
II, when Emperor William viii open
that body in person., it is understood
that the reduction of the tariff on
Austrian grain and the decrease Of the
duty on wine imported from Italy, will
be the points where the first onset will
be made. These will be used by
Bismarck to influence conservatives in
his favor and bring them to his support.
Later on the labor question will be-
come an issue in the fight. No surprise
is felt on nccount of the expected attack
upon the method of conducting internal
affairs, but it is matter of real astonish-
ment that the foreign policy is to be
assailed. This is bv no means lessened
by the announcement that Prince Bis
marck will possibly go to as great
length as to reveal the secrets existing
between himself and the emperor.
Great significance and concern have
been aroused by reason of the fact as
stated, that the plenipotentiaries of
Bavaria and Wurtemburg will support
Bismarck, while Saxony, it is said, will
throw part of its weight, at least, in his
favor. A pamphlet containing threats
against the emper II for having altered
the foreign policy, as it asserts ''to the
peril of the existence of the empire"
has made its appearance, inspired by
Prince Bismarck, with little doubt. The
German people are alarmed by the pros
pectof painful scenes anticipated dur
ing the session, and Prince Bismarck's
known skill and formidableness as a
statesman and politician have a decided
effect in increasing this feeling. Whether
the government is well prepared to with
stand the onslaught is not stated, but
the position of Chancellor Won Caprivi is
considered one of great delicacy, and it
is thought that he will be called upon to
exercise great skill and address during
the coming conflict.

POWDER AND BALL.

Ten torpedoes, costing $4,000. were lost
In the late British naneuvers.
A 110-ton gun can fire two shots a min
ute, each discharge costing 81, 200.
Tubes for firing balls with gunpowder.
capable of being held in the hand and
called scorpions, came into use in Eng
land in 1440.
Percussion caps were first used By the
French army in 1880. and by the English in
1853. Since that time there have been many
improvements in firearms in both the Old
and the New Worlds
A trial recently made in the German
army showed that dispatches can be sent
more speedily by borsemen than by bicy-
clists. The horses were not ridden at high
speed, while the bicyclists went at fuH
speed.
Hereafter every soldier on active servics
in the British army viii have a card AZ
tached TO his clothing bearing his name,
rank and regiment. This plan Is 20 facili-
tate Identification in case Of death on the
battlefield. It has long been in vogue in
the German army.

HURRAH FOR FASSETT.

The contest just closed in New York
was in some respects a repetition of the
Miller-Hill campaign of two years ago.
In that contest Miller was antagonized
by the liquor interest VIII lie in the late
contest the Prohibitionists did their best
to compass FasSett'S defeat. With an
air of sincerity, but with the imperti-
nence of the devil one of the state Pro-
hibition central committee wrote to Mr..
Fassett asking him for a statement con-
corning some allegations, to the effect
that wine and beer are served on his
table. The ostensible purpose of the
inquiry was to get denial of the reports,
but Mr.. Fassett construed it as an I'M
warranted nosing into his private
affairs and treated 1t accordingly. With
out taking the trouble to either affirm or
deny the rumor as to his dinner table
and what appears thereon, Mr. Fassett
proceeds to give the Prohibitionist bit
of his mind. He said:
at is none of your business what the
particular regime of my family life is:
that is my business and the business of
my family. Inside the doors of my house,
my habits. and the habits of my wife, and
the habits OF my children and my friends,
are nobody's business but mine"
This is very strong language, but it
is by no means all Mr. Fassett has to saw.
The expression which the Prohibitionists
hoped to get from him was to be printed
in the Voice, the Prohibition organ, and
a part of this expression is as follows:
Il met one of the managers of the Voice
once mp in the North Woods, and / dis
covered that be was in the habit Of drink
ing great quantities Of whisky every day:
but that was none of nv business and
none of the business of the world When
men are running for public Office the peo-
pie are interested TO know how they will
discharge the duties of that Office. not
what they eat for breakfast, or dinner or
tea"
The rebuke contained in Mr.. Fassett's
reply was as pointed and incisive as it
was prompt and justifable. What a
man eats and drinks, if the indulgence
is not to excess and does no injury to
himself or anyone else, is a matter of no
more concern to the public, and no more
affects his qualifications for good citizen
ship OF the discharge of official duties
for which he is otherwise qualified than
does the kind of clothes he wears. or
whether he rides or walks TO and from
his business, and any interference or at
tempt TO interfere IN such matters is
prompted by the same proscriptive
spirit that caused the burning Of people
for witchcraft years ago There is no
place for it in this enlightened age and
country.

THE BUSY
snap SHOTS.

Miss Frances b. johnson. Of the Wash
thusiastic lady amateurs in the country.
Daily photographs Of the sun taken since
1857 show cOnclusively that that luminary
makes a complete revolution in eleven
years.
There are at least 900 amateur photog-
raphers in Newark, y. J., and Of that num-
Der about one-half are active all the year
around and especially active in summer.
W. Sharpe Leggett, a well known Brook
Ign amateur, is experimenting with a new
type Of hand camera devised by himself,
with which be has obtained excellent 10
suits.
Instantaneous photography has been
used TO record the movements Of the lips Ia
speaking. and by putting the photographs
in a zoetrope deaf mute can easily read
the words.
The dry plate made possible instautans-
Gus photography and all the later ad-
vances. and simplihed the process 70 such
degree that any bright boy or girl OF ten
can easily master IL Ia few days.
E. NJ. Dickerson, the eminent New York
patent lawyer, is said 20 possess the finest
amateur outfit in the United States. His
lenses alone are valued az 5000 He IL
probably the only amateur who has under
taken ~ by - pictures.
There is a noticeable reaction in amateur
circles in favor Of tripod cameras agains'

The Republican party will take no
backward step on the tariff question in
1892. This fact is clearly and conclu-
sively demonstrated by the triu nph in
Ohio. The Mckinley law has justified
the faith of its promoters aud champions,
has exposed the falsity of the prophecies
made against it year ago, and has con-
founded and disheartened its enemies.
If the Democrats attack this law in the
coming congress they will do so at their
peril They can not alter it in single
provision, and every attempt of the sort
which they make will only add to the
number of the champions who will rise
up in its defense. In Ohio alone of all
the states which voted yesterday the
tariff was the sole issue. Local concerns
of one sort or another distracted the at
tention of the voters in the other states,
and detracted from the political signifi
canoe of the result in them. Ohio in
1891 has turned back. the current which
was setting in over large portion of the
country in favor of free trade, as in
1875 it checked the movement in favor
of an inflated and inconvertible curren-
cy, and as in 1863 it stamped out copper
headism in the northern states.
