The administration of President
Harrison has just passed the half
way stage, and the time is opportunc
to review its Iabors and determine
what the country may expect from
the two succeeding years that are to
complete his term. 1t has often
been said that Administrations arc
weaker with the people at their
beginning than at their close, and
less popular midway between their
beginning and ending than at any
other stage. Every administration
in late years has been more popular
in the last year of its existence than
at the half way stage. Judged by
what it has accomplished, the pre-
sent administration is likely to
follow the general rule.
Chief among its features has been
its sturdy Republicanism-thc eff
forts to honestly redeem every
platform pledge on WHICH General
Harrison went to the country as a
candidate. These pledges have not
all been redeemed, but the response
bility of the failure does not rest on
the administration, but on faithless
members Of Congress in one branch
or the other.
The maintenance Of the credit of
the government and the aversion of
threatened disaster through panic
have been effected by the Treasury
Department, while definite policy
in reference to silver has been entered
upon to give the country the use
OF silver as currency without
endangering the stock of gold coin

The Behring Sea Dispute.

While Lord Salisbury's recent
letter to Secretary Blaine in regard
to the Behring Sea dispute by no
means settles the controversy, it
puts it in fair WY to be settled.
lie is willing to arbitrate the main
issue upon which Mr.. Blaine has
staked the rights of the United
States-that is, whether or not, in
our purchase of Alaska, we secured
the rights proclaimed by the ukase
of Russia in l62 I, prohibiting foreign
vessels from approaching within 100
miles OF the coast and islands then
belonging to Russia in Behrlng Sea.
There are various other points IN
the controversy raised by Mr.. Blaine
and Lord Salisbury, but they arc
all dependent upon this main propo
sition, and as the English Govern
ment is willing to arbitrate them
all We arc pretty certain to have a
peaceful solution Of the entire sub
ject. Whatever the result of arbi,
tration may be the country must
accept it philosophicalIy. Mr. Blaine
has declared his ability to prove
that England recognized and acqui
c,ced in the ukase of 1921. Let u
hope that he can. Lord Salisbury
has declared that there is no sucl
proof. Let US hope that he is mis-
taken.

A WORD TO MFN.

Some years ago a group Of ga,
tlemen met in the Office of one d
the manufactures of Birmingham
England. After disposing of their
business they conversed on general
topics, and then, as men will takof
women, various anecdotes wer,
told and opinions preached; among
the latter one young man SAID:
well, It is my opinion every won,
an has her price" The older men
were silent and soon dispersed.
Shortly after, one Of the Older
men, a man Of family, gave series
of entertainments to which the
above mentioned young man was
not invited. Feeling hurt and sur.
prised by the omission, he inquired
the reason of lis exclusion. The
man of family replied, "Do Won
remember the expression You used
ahout every woman having her
price?" Now, young sir, want
you to understand | have . wife, at
home who is still called comely, also,
Young and pretty daughters, and |
would just ~ soon bring viper to
sting their bodies as to invite d man
of your expressed opinions to posi-
bly, poison their minds"
Now, men, husbands, fathers
brothers, by what right do You in
vite to your homes, to miugle with
your women folks, the kind Of mer
whom YOU know are not fit for
pure man to associate? The atm"s
phere surrounding such men, th'
expression of their faces, the man
ner with which they address women
is calculated to undermine an
throw away the social barriers o
restraint, when the most lnnocen
and unsuspecting will snlfer r.
most. Begin with the new year
Take care of your hearthstone jewels
Let no man of doubtful virtue eros
your threshold! You may in tha
way help to stamp out the "socls
evil" Men must cooperate witt
the women to keep pure the foun
tain of life-the true home.

READ WHAT you WANT TO KNOW.
1t is quite impossible to lay down
rules for reading that will suit all
children, and generally difficult to
map out a course" to be infexibIy
pursued by any one. But nearly
every mind is or can be interested
in something, and a very good plan
is TO encourage reading concerning
the subject the child shows some
curiosity about. One thing viii
certainly lead to another, for moth
ing Is ISOLATED in thus world. Try
to find out all you can about one
thing, one fact in history, one per
son, the habits of ore animal, the
truth about one historical character;
pursue this, and before you know 1t
you will be a scholar in many things
DO not forget that reading is q
means to an end. The Indulgence
Of it is good or bad according to the

NEXT TUESDAY.

The voting in most of the states last
November was far out of the lines set
by the Republicans. and good deal of
Neither side had rightly measured the
popular feeling. Whether the ballots
cast next Tuesday in the contested
states will afford similar surprise is
not to be determined until they are
counted, but may fairly be regarded as
improbable. Except in one or two
states where there were hot local
issues, the vote cast last year
was so far short of a full poll
that it may be fairly insisted
that abStention from the polls was the
chief factor in the result. 1t may be
conceded also that there is something
in the Republican claim that disaffec-
ton over the tariff measure and the ac-
ton of congress and the administration
caused many of their voters to remain
away. They insist that this will not be
the case in the states that vote this year.
TheindicationS in the states that require
a registry are that the poll will reach
well toward the proportion of the
presidential year. In New York and
Brooklyn the registrations aggre-
gates 1869, which is very
unusual total for any but the
quadrennial year. In Boston the regis
try is equally significant. In these To-
calities, however, a big vote must be
presumed to be favorable to the Demo-
Gratis. But in all the states the vote
will be so large that no question can be
had as to the status of the states polit-
ically. The side that is beaten this
year VIII not be able to claim reserves
to change the result in 1892. 1t is
noticeable that the Democrats have
been growing in confidence in New
York, Ohio and Iowa the past
week or two. There are some
voting elements in New York
that will be with the Democrats

CHECKED. NOT AIDED.

One of the state papers takes occasion
to make point OH the GLOBE, as it
fancies, in the fact that it labors to pro-
mote local industries and manufactures,
and at the same time opposes the Nc
KINLEY system. There is nothing pc
culiar in the attitude of the GLOBE in
either of these respects, or novel in the
imputation of inconsistency. 1t has
been standard accusation against the
Democratic position on the tariff from
time immemorial that it was not pro-
motive of home manufactures. So far
as the right is concerned to tax peO-
pie by raising the duty on articles they
choose to buy abroad in order that they
may be produced at home, it is not be-
lieyed to be in the scope of an equal and
just government. AS an illustration,
the tin business is in point. The Nc
KINLEY system would force the people
to pay annually S15,0O0,00O or more for
their tinware in order that individuals
might experiment and decide whether
the profit would be large enough to suit
them to manufacture the article in this
country. The Democratic position would
encourage the establishment of this in
dustry in all equitable ways, but would
deny the right to take money, directly
or indirectly, out of the pockets of the
consumers of tin plate, to offer as COM
pensation to the capitalists engaged in
the new industry. As business PROPOSE

be better to pay the $4,000 possible

away by the cry that Tammany is run
ming the party in this contest, and other
local incidents. Still, there is hardly a
doubt of the success of the Democrats.
Under the lead of Gov. CAMPBELL, the
tides have been turning to the Demo-
Gratis in Ohio. Some have supposed
that the governor lacked discretion III
raising the internal disturbance in the
party that has been credited with the
loss OF large vote at Cincinnati, bat he
has shown himself Il brilliant canvasSer
and more than match for MCKINLEY as
political leader. The Republicans are
evidently alarmed, and rely upon the
use of large sums of money, squeezed
out of the protected pockets, to pull
them through. At this distance it looks
as if they had good reason for their
fright. They have failed in their efforts,
led by Senator SHERMAN, to put the
Silverquestion in the lead, and FORAKER
has tried to bring in the dogs of war
only to excite disgust. Ohio has usually
had good deal of politics to the acre,
and has more than usual this year. The
Republicans cannot afford TO be beate u,
but it really looks as though they might
be forced to.
Iowa is one of the states where the
abstainerS dix: not count last year. The
Democrats have strong man at the
head of their ticket, and his election
seems more than probable. Massachu-
sets has never gone back OH the Re
publicans when they had their rural
vote out. They are making an astonish-
ing effort this year, AMI are outworking
the Democrats. If they are beaten now,
they cannot expect to do better i'll the
national contest.

THE MEETING TONIGHT.

\ meeting is called for tonight at the
chamber of commerce, which many of
our prominent citizens will address, and
which the public generally is invited to
attend. Its purpose is to devise some
plan by which immigration to Mime
sofa can be stimulated. There has pre-
vailed of late years in the granger mind
most incOmprehensible deluSion 10 the
effect that an increase of the states
population was not thing to be desired
More men. it has been argued, means
greater competition and loss of wealth
10 those VINO are already here. The an
SWer to such a position is very obvious,
and has been often presented, but it did
not avail to save the state board
which once upon time had charge of
this subject. No provision now exists
fer advertising our resources, or for
calling the attention of settlers to The
advantages Of our soil and climate. If
they are to be brought here ar all, it can
be done only by private enterprise and
effort. Successful movements have
already been iuaugurated looking to
the development of st. Paul'S CONNER
cial and manufacturing interests, but
this very important matter has been
somewhat overlooked. a number of
philosophical men propose to take it
up, and, if they have reasonable cooper
alton, to carry it through to actual re-
suits. The basis of our local prosperity
is the growth and prosperity of the
country back of US. Every producer
and consumer i'll our rural districts
counts in orr struggle for strength and
greatness. The present extraordinary
harvest supplies text for colonization
sermons, such as has not been at hand
for many season; and this is the APP
pointed hour for missionary work in
this field. Not Soou again will there be
such contrast preseutable between our
own permanent fertility and the alter
nations of poverty and plenty which
are characteristic of the rest of the
world. If anybody has ideas as to how
this news should be spread abroad, and
how the general object in view can be
furthered, he ought to be present to-
night and make himself heard.

STOLE THE SAFE.
Kansas Robbers Make Sure of
Their Booty

ATCHIsON. Kan, Oct. 2S.-An express
car on the Central Branch railway was
robbed at Leon0ra just after midnight
this morning. George Garner, the eX-
press messenger, runs from DOwnes to
LeOnOra. When the train arrives at
Leonord he performs the duties of
brakeman and helps the crew in switch
ing, the conductor usually remaining in
the express car. When the train arrived
at LeOnora at IL :25 this morning Garner
hurried out to help switch the train,
leaving the conductor in the car.
As the car passed the station the con-
ductor alighted to transact some bust
ness there, and the car was then left
alone. When the train was ready to
proceed on its way again, the express
messenger discovered that the safe was
missing. 1t was in its place all right
when he left the car, he says, and the
conductor says the same. 1t is sup
posed that while the car was being
switched robbers entered it and threw
out the safe, carried it to wagon which
they had in waiting, and made off with
it. The safe is supposed to have con-
tanned large amount of money. There
Is no clue 10 the robbers.
