Plumb had many more business under
takings than most Senators, and many of
them of the hazardous kind. He had
been noted as "A speculator, and man of
great nerve and daring. He accumulated
a fortune by his own efforts, and it is
known that he had lost large sums. If
he had died few years ago he would
have been very wealthy. His life was
one of continual excitement, and of un-
ceasing nervous and mental strain. He
was of good habits. But he burned the
candle always at both ends. lie never
rested. He was in constant action" 1t

themselves to death only for private gain,

Mr.. STEWARDS IDEAS.

ben ADOu III New Ork Press.
was chatting yesterday with ex-Con-
gresham John w. Stewart of Vermont,
who was recognized while in Congress
as one of the ablest of New England
statesmen, when he sarcastcally COM
mented on the foreshadowed organiza-
tion of the present Congress in language
about as follows: "rhink of Holman
and Springer as leaders of the Democrat
ic majority. 1t is enough to make man
wonder what this country is coming to-
Why, Holman is the smallest and most
insignificant type of legislator that this
country ever produced. As for Springer,
he is a good enough fellow, but he will
have the big head so large that he
will think that he owns the country. If
these statesmen are the highest caliber
of men that the Democrats in Congress
can put forward to run the legislation of
the nation, sorry mess they'll make of
affairs. The Congress that follows them
will be obliged to pass Il $4,000 900 de-
ficiency bill, which is Holman's idea of
economy. There couldn't be more
dangerous pair of men selected by the
Democrats to run the House,

The wool market has shown peculiar
inactivity all through the season and
buyers have had little to encourage
them. The situation has not materially
improved of late. The Boston Journal
of Friday last says:
There is very little change in the wool
situation here. Values on all the lead
ing grades are sustained on about the
same basis as noted week ago. The
demand during the week has been fairly
active, but with the exception of Il few
large sales made to three or four of the
large buyers, the business of the week
has been mostly confined to small lots
for the immediate use of the purchaser
Still there have been IA number of manu-
facturers on the market who have been
busy in picking up their wool previously
bought, but they have also taken a mum
Der of sample bags and will probably
buy with freedom as soon as their sam
pies of heavyweight goods are heard
from in the shape of orders. 1t is not
probable that there will be much move
ment in this way until after the first of
the new year, and so dealers here expect
quiet trade In wool for the present.

THE FoREFATHsRs IN A NEW LIGHT.


From Chauncey NJ Depcw's New York Adj
ercsS.
The Dutch definition of crank was a
pers )n who, when possessed of an idea,
never failed to keep it before the world,
and, if necessary, be very disagreeable in
urging it upon his contemporaries, and
who never doubted himself. The Dutch
men invented the word after the Puritan
settlement in Holland.
Nothing has contributed so much to
false history as the misuse of words.
The Stuart kings prosecuted the Puritans
because they would not accept the re-
ligion of the throne. But these royal
personages had no religion as the devout
Puritan understood the word. They
were diSsolute in morals and depraved in
conduct. They arrayed all the power of
the state on the side of forms whose sub
stance was the king ruled the church,
but the Puritan placed against their
authority his conscience, which held
that God governed the king. The es-
tablished order of things was Loyalty ac-
cepted by the classes and the masses |;
and for the aristocracy and the gentry,
for the men in the professions and in
business, for all which with us stands
for capital and vested rights, it seemed
both heresy and treason to preach re-
form.
The prayers of the church at that time
were like the afiidavits of candidates now
as to election expenses. The margins
were larger than the text.
The Puritan. who was ready to fight
and willing to die for the privilege of
worshipping God as he thought right,
was the phenomenal crank of the period.
He was preambulating can of moral
dynamite whose explosion might liberate
the souls and minds of men. He was,
beyond dispute, the most disagreeable
of human beings to all that constituted
the social and political power of his
dav. In the unequal contest of the hour,
he and his co-relgionists were persecut-
ed, imprisoned, executed or eXiled.
But his fight was not for time, but for
eternity. The Stuart kings are dead !;
their thrones have been taken from their
sons and their power transferred to a
house alien in blood and faith: but the
sons of the Puritans govern half the
world, and their principles are the vital
and energizing forces with the other
half.
