In the suit of Antoine Lambos against the

OF the contract on the part OF the master Of

ferred to a commission for adjustment.

HE DOES NOT SAY IT.

At the first blush the Ohio Repub-
licans thought they were in great luck
in getting letter from the reticent and
sly man in Maine, to help them in their
nard contest. But as they read it over
and look between the lines their en-
thuSiasm abates. and they begin to
wonder whether it was written in their
interest or merely to keep the writer
before the country as presidential pos
sibility. They read between the lines
and see only BLAINE with no MCKIN-
LEY. Even the point he attempts to
make on the Democrats of garbling his
FRYE letter they find is but al affecta-
ton of bubble. Mr.. BLAINE wrote
that the MCKINLEY bill as it was
framed before his injection was
had would not ''open a market for an
other pound of pork" The careless or
wicked Democrats said barrel in place
of pound. That was the only perver-
sion. They are quite ready to believe
that the secretary'S mental health is i'm
paired when he calls that "garbling."
There is no mobilization of his condem-
nation of McKinleyism as it stood be-
fore the dilution with the free trade
irritant of reciprocity. Nor is there a
section or line in the entire letter"
that refers to the candidacy of MCKIN-
LEY. If MIR. BLAINE wants him elected
governor, he has given no intlmation
or it. This omission is really the
only significant feature of the letter.
1t is not to his interest to have MCKI N
LEY elected. Should he go in by
rousing majority it, would be taken as
an Endorsement OF the MCKINLEY
rather than the BLAINE part of the bill
of exclusion, not reciprocity and the
logic of the situation would point TO
MCKINLEY as the party leader and can
didate for president. The defeat of
MCKINLEY. on the other hand, would
swing the party on the reciprocity
trail, leading toward free trade. BLAINE
would rise up as the Moses, the only

TO LIVE LONG.

From time immemOrial temperance
evangellsts and prohibitiOnists have
pictured that terrible army Of 10000,
never more or less, tottering to the
drupkards' graves every year. 1t was
probably very effective half-century
Or 80 ago, but the ceaseleSs tramp has
dulled the perceptions. 1t is more
effective now to particulariZe. If it is
alleged that the late distinguished citi-
zen and athletic champion. PAT Kill
LEN, was in the latest disappearing
ranks of the 10000, an object lesson is
set that stirs the moral sensibilities. If
so sturdy au embodiment of the
muscular goes down before JOHN
BARLEYCoRN, the average individ-
ual can see that his place is outside
Of the ring. Medical scientists differ
as to the physical propriety of absten-
ton from the use of liquors entirely. 1t
is probable that, among those who have
lived beyond the prescribed age of man
to the extreme limit a5outas many used
liquors moderately as not at all. Very
little is proved in either case. 1t is
claimed, however, that one of the lead
ing life insurance companies of Great
Britain, the General Proyident InStitu-
ton, has for more than twenty-five
years divided its policy holders into
two classes. the abstainers and moder-
ate drinkers, only the better class OF
the latter being taken, it is claimed.
The surprising statement is made that
the company can afford to insure the
abstainerS at far lower rates than the
moderateS, as their tables show in the
quarter of century difference in
longevity of Is 40 per cent. That is,
the men who never touch intoXicants
live more than one-fourth longer than
those who indulge but never become
Incorporate. If the data in this case are
as comprehensive and reliable as stated.
the reformers could hardly have more
convincing argument. Most men like to
anticipate long life. They would flock
to the end of the world to buy waters
that would prolong life but few years.
Still, it is not quite stated that any life
insurance company does actually give
the non-drinkers lower 1ates of insur-
ance.
