SPIRIT OF THE DEAD FORGE BILL

Among some of the OLD time blood and
thunder Republicans the chiefest regret in
contemplating the Democratic House of
Representatives which will meet next
December, is that, with such body inter
posing, there is no chance to pass meas
ure like the LODGE southern elections bill.
These are the men who delight to lire the
southern heart'' with charges of brutality,
and stuff1ng the ballot box, and preventing
free speech and doing all manner of evil
things contrary to the laws of Con and
man. They want to keep the south over
run with carpet-baggers, to exasperate
them to the use of Incorporate language,
and to drive them to do things which will
be condemned at the north. 1t Is doubtful
| whether any other of his recommends
tons hss had SO much of his own
heart in it as President HARRI-
soN's advocacy of the force bill. His
position as to silver and the tariff are con-
trsry to what he knows the wishes of his
party in the West to be, and it may be sup
posed that there are times when he can
| sympathise, to q limited extent, with those
who suffer from the northeastern opposition
to Western interests. But on the question
OF humiliating and yoking down the South,
he is as radical as LODGE, or any other
New England fanatic. There is no ques-
ton it is CALLING to Mr.. HARRISON that the
| federal election bill is where GABRIEL's
trumpet can never resurrect it.
But though the force bill is dead, the
spirit which sought to enact it is not dead,
but sleepeth. 1t is the spirit which has
governed the country with brief intervals
for thirty years. 1t is the spirit that
cropped out in the Massachusetts Re-
publican platform the other day, for the
Republicans of the northeast could never
conceal their surprise and chagrin at the
defeat of that bayonet measure. To them
it was, the knoll of the Republican party
itself. The whole reconstruction business,
with its dismal incidents Of dispersed legis-
lstures, negro governments, carpetbag rule
and the twenty years. brandishing Of the
bloody shirt, were little else than carefully
planned schemes to divert the country's
attention from northeastern money-making
policies. In fact, the northeastern states
losked so well after their interests during
the war and the long years of trouble which
followed it, that they thought themselves
complete masters of the Republican party
and therefore Of the country. But with
HoAR and ALDRIoH, and LODGE and the
others making elaborate pleas for protect
ing the negro in his rights, their words fall
to the ground like Jumps of lead. Without
a solitary vote from the South in the House
Of Representatives, the Democrats would
have majority of twenty-six. The people
have found out that behind all the tall
| about loyalty and ''unionism," the north
3 east has some schemes and projects dearel
: to its heart than these.

mint, show something like that which
resulted some time ago in opening certain
parts of China to the world.
Looking at the matter from one stand
point certain degree of sympathy can be
felt for the Chinese. They are In their
own country; they are not seeking to ac-
quire more territory or bring other people
in subsection to themselves, and they are
the best examples on earth OF devotees to
the commandment which we all profess
to admire, referring to one minding his
own business; yet this world is so small and
contains 30 few people, that it cannot be
permitted that any of the human family
shall remain in 5arbarlsm or live behind
walls intended to keep out the light OF civ
ilizatiou and Christianity. The decree is
being swiftly written that the Chinese
shall abandon their exclusiveness and live
on higher plane, as we, not they, under
stand the term, than they have occupied.
1t will cost good deal of blood to enforce
the decree, and most of it will be good
blood, too, as the Chinese are fight
es from way back, not taking
much thought Of life when fac
ing death in what they deem a good
cause; but the PRONUNCIATION having gone
forth, it will be carried into effect. One Of
these days the empire which has been al
most as much sealed book to Europeans
as Central Africa previous to STANLEY, will
be thrown open to men and women carry
ing the higher civilization, and the people
of the west will be as free to enter and
dwell in China as they are to live in Ger
many or England or America. The next
year or two will be full of important events
for the Chinese and their empire.

SUPPOSE.

A telegram from Susquehsnna, Pa, this
morning, says that while some workmen
were prospecting for coal on farm in that
county paying vein of gold was disccv-
cred. Only few days ago it was wired
from Connecticut that vein of gold quartz
was found in that state, and preparations
were being made to work it. These stories
are not likely to create stampede among
the prospectors and miners of the west
Our people take as little stock in gold
yarns emanating from the east as they do
in the fables concerning the buried treas
ures of thelate Captain KIDD. A telegram
like that from Susquehanna coming from
any place in the Rocky Mountain region or
the Pacific slope would be very apt to sx-
cite more or less Of rush to the now "dig-
gins" but the alleged finding of the pre-
cious metal outside OF the ''gold belt''
cannot arouse enthusiasm in the heart of
the most sanguine prospector of the sun
down side of the continent
But we were just thinking as to what
| would be the result Of the discovery of
| gold-bearing Lodges in Pennsylvania, Con
| necticut or other eastern states Suppose
the yield of the yellow stuff were as gen
erous as it was in California few years
ago, when gold came forth in such abund-
ance as to radically change the proportions
OF the two money metals; suppose there
were to be found no Comstock to restore
the equilibrium, and the silver yield should
fall off as that OF gold increased, until the
disproportion should be SO great as to put q
premium on silver just as such premium
was placed on it within the easy recollec
ton of US all; we say, suppose all this
should happen, what position would our
New England and eastern political friend:
generally occupy on the coinage question
Where would SHERMAN and MCKINLEY
and HARRISON and the other goldite states
men stands Would they demand tina
more gold be put in the dollar-enougf
more to make up the difference in the bull
lion price between the two metals! Would
they ask that the coinage of gold should bt
discontinued until the two metals should p
made equal in the bullion market b,
the law of production! Would the,
go storming about the country telling peopl
that unless we discontinued the coinage O.
the cheaper metal-gold-au the worlt
would send its gold to the United State
and buy up our silver, leaving US with
cheap aud debased ourrency'
To be consistent with themselves an
with their records they would have to pro-
, claim against the coinage Of gold and insis
upon restricting the people to the use o
a silver as the scarcer and hence the deare
money. The duplication of the Californi
and Australian gold fields in New Englan
n and the falling off of the silver produt
a would cause every political fnancier wh
is now under the direction of the none,
lending class to change his opinions regar,
ing the two metals, though he might n,
. change his position, that the dearer thi
money can be made made through scarcIt
q the better it will be for the country.

AMMONIA In BAKING POWDER.
Discussion Before the American Chemical
Society.

To the Editor OF the Tribune--Sir:
have just seen the report in your issue of
September of the discussion at the Wash
iagton meeting CT the American Chemical
Society, August 1S, relative to the use of
carbonate of ammonia in baking powders.
This report is Incomplete and incorrect
in many particulars, and as the paper
which precipitated the discussion was read
by me and was based upon my own ex-
periments, | desire to make certain cor
rections in the interest of the truth and
for the benefit Of the large number your
| readerslo whom the question is one of
great moment.
The paper as read before the society re-
| lated that ammonia in baking powder is
retained in the bread by reason of It's ATTN
! ity to the gluten. The concensus of opinion
as expressed during the discussion was
against the use of carbonate of ammonia
in baking powder, with the only exception
OF DR.. McMurtrie, who is now an employees
of baking powder company which uses
carbonate Of ammonia in its baking pow
| der.
| Of the other parties mentioned as having
| taken part in the discussion were Prof. DIR.
Parker, of the University of Pennsylvania
who is the president of the society and one
| of our highest authorities In answer tc
a eading by Prof. McMurtrie that only

how small the quantity, must decline tc
be dosed medically without my consent
when taking my meals"
DIR. E. H. BARLEY, formerly chemist oil
the Brooklyn board of health and professor
of chemistry at the Long Island college
likewise named, did not. | believe, take
active part in the discussion, but is already
on record as strongly opposed to the use Of
ammonium carbonate in baking powders.
DIR. Richardson volunteered only tbs
question whether the flour used in the ex-
periments was Of good quality, of which
assured him by stating that it was the bes
and the flour used in my family.
Prof. Mallet was not present.
Your article is misleading in so far as i
gives the impression that ammonia dlsap

with those made by others, showing tina
ammonia remains in the bread. My inves
LEGATIONS simply assign new cause for 1T

TIE LAFAYETTE. Ind. Courier saws

The President does not go around with a
plaster-ofparis grin on his face shaping men
on the back and humorousy poking them in the
ribs, accompanying his physical demonstrations
with familiar salutations and inquiries about
crops and babies in which he has no heartfelt
concern, as the custom is with ward politicians.
This is said to account for the fact that
Mr.. HARRISON is not popular. But the man
of even the towering intellectual qualities
and the exalted position of chief magis
trate, may be dignifed, without being
austere. He may be even Indifferent with
out being frigid.

A slight acquaintance with the anatomy
of an earthworm enables US to understand
why the body is divided into a number of
rings, or ''segments," as they are more
generally termed. The internal orgaps,
instead of being distributed among the
segments, are for the most part repeated
from segment to segment. 1t follows,
therefore, that when the gardeners spade
shears off several inches of worm the an
imal is not deprived of one or more essen
tial organs, but only of less or greater
number of parts of these organs
Spalanzani was the first naturalist who
made-about 200 years ago-experiments
of this kind, which proved, as subsequent
writer pointed out, that "by a strange
paradox in nature, the most useless and
contemplate lives are, of all others, ex-
tinguished with the greatest difficulty"
In addition to these advantages in its
construction, the earthworm has a certain
amount of cunning, which must enable it
to escape some foes. On mild, wet evenings
innumerable worms may be seen lying out
with the ends of their tails fixed in their
burrows; on the slightest alarm they rap
idly retire underground.-Chamb Jour
nal.
