WILL BE INTERESTING

The contest IN Ohio this year will be
of unusual interest if the tickets are
headed by Gov. CAMPBELL, on the Dem
ocratic side, and Mr.. MCKINLEY on the
other. Both are representative men.
CAMPBELL has an element about Gin
cinnati bitterly hostile, by reason of the
action of the governor in removing GER
tain Democrats from important posi-
lions in that city in the interest of hon
est administration, as he believed.
Whether his action was judicious or not,
there is no question as to the integrity
of his motives. This hostile element
has such influence and resources that it
will take some nerve in the Democrats
of the state to make the governor their
candidate, but they will apparently
have the courage. The people have
a liking for the pluck that stands
by a man who is assaulted for his
attempts to enforce honesty and econ
omy in public affairs; and it may prove
to be not only good politics, but high
sagacity, to make him their leader.
Should he make the canvass he is be-
lieved to be capable of making, and
carry the state, he could be easily seen
if the Democratic national convention
should deem it advisable to look for a
candidate outside of New York. The
nomination of MCKINLEY by the Re-
publcans is hardly in doubt. Still.
some of the timid among the leaders are
quivering somewhat at the prospect.
They are not sure that the high tariff
sentiment is strong enough to take the
party through. BEN BUTTERwoRTH,

nouneed the Mckinley bill and
voted for it, in referring to the

GOOD USE FOR THEM

New Hampshire had some 1900 de-
serted farms few months ago. 1t is
now reported by the agencies looking
after them that the majority have been
taken by wealthy residents of the cities
to be used as residences in the summer
outing. This will be good thing for
the state. as it will diffuse the summer
visitors and give lands chance to grow
trees. 1t will give new ideas of the
beauty and picturesqueness of the rural
scenes to the toiling farmers who have
failed to see sermons i'll stones or any
thing attractive in the petrifed throbs
of nature. That state has been called
the Switzerland of America, and is
popular summer resort for the city resi-
dents. The river bottoms are the only
portions worth cultivating for farm
crops, and it would not be bad idea to
let it grow up at the dictates of nature,
and make resort for tourists.

ONLY A FAKE.

Possibly the fanciful pictures drawn
in behalf of the protection of American
tin have had some effect abroad, or on
the importers of the foreign article. A
great deal of tin will come in from the
factories in Wales this month in antici-
patton of the duty to go into effect the
first of July, but the mill owners in
Wales are to give all their employees a
lay-Off for July, to allow the stock in
this country to run down. The prices
have been so increased by the tariff that
they have had a harvest the past few
months, and could afford to meet the
demand in this country without causing
much local advance. But they are per-
haps magnauimouS enough to be Will
ing to give the American produ-
GERS of tin chance, and there
fore stop their works a month.
The prices will evidently go up
as the enormous consumption in the
summer begins to drain the market.
Unless, however, there has been pro-
digiOuS lying about the establishment
of tin works in this country, they will
vindicate the course of their legislative
benefactors by making American tin a
vast reality and not a political fake.
But there is no tin plate produced in
this country to be found in market, and
the whole thing is a humbug. 1t may
be costly piece of trickery to the per-
petrators if scanty supply sends up
the figures, as it will be felt on every
table and in every kitchen.

WHAT 1T Is.

Often the papers have stories of sick
people dying under the ministrations of
the Christian science workers that is.
i'll other places. 1t is not remembered
that there have been any local imputa-
tons of that sort. These reports are
calculated to create unfavorable impress
Sions of the methods in vogue by this
school. Most people have vague and
romantic notions as to the principles and
operations of this recent school, If it is
a new thing, and.not resuscitation of
an old system. One of the erudite
doctors of the persuasion, gentleman
from Brooklyn, n. Y, gave an exposi-
ton of this science at Market hall, in
this city, Sunday. He was a man of
physical substance, and typical repre-
sentative of class supposed to
be somewhat characteristic of his
locality. He was conceded to be one of
the recognized masters of the art. if that
is legitimate phraseology. He removed
some of the erroneous notions that have
been common in regard to it. The
remedial or curative agencies are but
incidental and trivial in comparison to
the great mission it involves. In fact,
when 1t becomes full-orbed. and per-
meates things with the effluence of it's
high thoughts, as it were, there will be
no physical Affections to be relieved. 1t
is panacea that diSsipateS all the ills
OF humanity. The gentleman was per-
sistent and impressively frequent
in the statement that Christian
science will eliminate sickness, sin
and death. Probably he meant
in cases where the absorption
is complete, or the cult in its perfect de-
velopment. In abolishing the bad trim
itY Of sickness. sin and death, no acct
dent could come to the fortunate eXalta-
ton. Christ was the elimination of
Christian science. He was the perfect
man, who had put the unreal, or fleshly
elements, in subsection. He conquered
death. The divine element was in con-
troll. This is the attainment to be
reached by Christian science. The won
ders He performed the adept in this
spiritual cult will find as easy as speech.
All can be ChristS and parts of the
Divine by means of Christian science.
Christ never used any drugs or sub
stances i'll His cures. He willed, and it
was done. Insensate material could
have 10 curative virtue. Drugs have
no intelligence and no effects.
All the influences in the body
come through the mind. 1t was not
quite understood by the uninitiated
hearers how they could come to this
high estate, but probably that is the
mystery taught in the Institutes of the
order, at regular rates; nor was it made
quite clear whether the speaker had
reached the stage where he could not
be touched by sickness, sin or death.
But that smay be the carping of igno-
rance. If the Christian science mission
is to abolish the triplet ills that make so
much trouble, it should be understood
and proper protection extended to it.
Still, on the whole, it might not be best,
as it would throw about half the people
out of employment. But, like all great
reforms or new ideas, It has to confront
ignorance, and some states refuse to
give its practitioners in remedial mat
tiers standing room. On the whole, the
system does not seem quite translucent.

played by Ida Van Cortland in the drama

From start to finish, the interest is never al

of thrillingly interesting drama Miss Van
Cortland was repeatedly and at times enthu-
siastically applauded for her very finished
performance. The role is that of an adven-
turess and the subtle, bold designing of the
woman of the woman of the world is cleverly
portrayed. Miss Van Cortland is surrounded
by capable company, the acting all around
being considerably above the average. For

A PUZZLE TO THEM.

Senator CARLISLE disturbed the Sc
renity of the faith of some of the lead
ers of the Peoples party in the practical
bility of government control of railroads
and telegraphs when he indicated the
magnitude of the scheme. He said the
railroads, telegraphs. telephones and
steamboat lines in the country repre-
scented about $40. OOO, 200, 900 of invested
capital, and had 81, 1000, 900, 600 of bonded
Indebtedness that must be paid. Were
they ready to tax themselves to buy the
interests, and would they be willing to
put up for the deficits each year to keep
them in operation? This presumes that
they would follow the rule of other bus
mess operations conducted by the gov
ernment. They do not return any profit.
Then the army of a million employees
would be danger in the hands of po-
litical party. The farmers will study a
little over the subject.

to large extent, their interests are
| identified?
| The Northern Pacific, the Great
| Northern, the st. Paul & Duluth, the
| Chicago & Northwestern, the Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul, and, indeed. all
the railroads trayersng the state, could
doubtless, with proper effort, be influ-
| enced to take a hand in the state exhibit
by the appropriation of money toward
the building, by free transportation of
| materials, and by special exhibitions of
the wealth of tbs territory into which
their roads penetrate.
Since no manufactured articles can be
placed in the state buildings, it becomes
| all the more important that the display
of natural products should be upon
thorough, colossal and impressive scale.
1t is furthermore important that these
products should be arranged and dis
played in many different forms, to the
end that they may challenge attention
and secure the interest of the multi
tudes who visit the exposition. There
viii be an eminent fitness in thus
Identifying the interests of the state
with those of its transportation lines.
This measure will aid in localiZing the
exhibits, and thus in attracting pOpula-
ton to the unoccupied portion of our
territory. 1t will, so to speak, tend to
individualiZe the railroads, drawing at
tention to their special characteristics,
and to the attractions and advantages
afforded by the region served by each.
BY means of such an association of
efforts and resources it will be easy to
erect building that will be of large
proportions out of Minnesota materials,
unique i'll design. ample in size, and
readily adaptable alike to the wants of
the railway companies and the state at
large. Each corporation would be left
free to work out the design and details
of its own exhibits, knowing in advance
the amount and kind of space at its
disposal.
These varied designs, while rejecting
the characteristics of each line of road
and its tributary territory, would to-
gether form one of the most striking
and attractive features ever presented
on SUCH an occasion.
1t is, of course, possible that the pro-
posed cooperation to the extent sug-
geSted cannot be effected. But it is
well worth the effort to make trial,
and that at an early date, before other
plans are marked out by the rail
road officials. 1t is to be hoped that
this suggestion will receive early con-
sideration by the proper authorities,
and that its practicability may be
promptly tested.

PITTsBURG, Pa, June There was
another lively session of the Reformed
Presbyterian synod this morning,
caused by the reading of letter by DIR.
MacAllister, in which he claimed that
he had been unfairly treated by the
synod on Saturday. The matter was
finally tabled. DR.. Stevenson, ed
ltor of the Christian Advocate, asked
to withdraw his compromise resolution
regarding the suspended ministers, but
Kew. j. X. j. Miliigan, as one OF the sus-
pended ministers, said he was willing
to have his case disposed of by the reso-
luton rather than by trial. Rev. J.
;. L. Milligan read the report
among other things. with the
Malta and said it was gratifying that
the grand jury at New Orleans had
made the investigation and reported as
1t did. Secret societies were designated
the aids Of Satan, and were severely
dealt with. The report said it was the
duty OF the church to take members
out OF them and then duty of the state
TO punish. Secret societies were called
1.-The deadliest foe of the church."
The propriety of labor organiza-
ions was questioned, and it
was asked that the next committee fully
investigate such organization DR.. Nc
AlllSter, the chief prosecutor of the
eleven ministers, read a resolution of
his own denouncing the ministers for
contempt in preaching by invitation
while they were suspended. Rev. j. S.
|. Milligan, of Kansas, reminded Mr.
McAllister the church was founded by
suspended ministers such as these, and
IN storm of debate the session closed
until morning.

The Presbyterian Assembly Clear
ing Up Routine Work.


DETROIT, June There were signs
of the beginning of the end at the Pres
byterian assembly this morning. Many
commissioners had gone home and the
attendance was light. The committees
on overtures had the floor this morning,
recommending that no action be
taken on the overture for the Gre
alton of a Presbyterian order of deacon
esses. The committee also recommended
the recognition of Society for Christian
Endeavor and other young peoples So
cietles. DR.. Mckibben opposed the rec
OmmendatiOn, and DR.. Sinclair, of BoS-
ton, denounced the Christian Endeavor
movement as the selling out of the
church principles for financial cOnsid-
Grafton. What was wanted was church
unity, but denOminational lines must be
kept up. The appointment of the
committee to consider the matter was
defeated. and the rest of the re-
port adopted. the assembly con-
sidered the affairs of the board of
publication, and after some squaring
away at the board, the report Of Judge

board had spent the money entrusted to
it wisely, was adopted. Mr.. Junkin,
