Of time continue to buy her coffee.
Should we con6ne our trading to
our own productions, our consumption
must be only Of our own products.
The value Of the gold and silver taken
from our mines, will net amount to
one-half ofthe value of our agricultur-
al product to the United Kingdom Of
Great Britain alone. And all the
profits derived annually from working
our gold and silver mines. would not
buy our annual consumption of coffee.
Therefore it follows, that if Delaware
cannot sell her surplus grain crop to
South America, and no sane man will
contend that she can, that surplus
must be disposed of to Europe, and
consequently mostly to England, the
great consumer of Delawara's kind of
products, before the Delaware farmers
and farmwerkers can get the means
to purchase South American coffee, or
as q matter of fact, any other COM
modities not produced in Delaware;
and by those farmers and farmwork-
ers.
In the Argentine Republics efforts
to sell her productions in England,
there is great danger that much injury
| will be done to the agricultural interest
| of the Delaware and Maryland PENN
suls, and that injury can only be
averted, by our country successfully
trading with England and Europe, on
better terms to the Englishman and
Europeans, than the South Americans
Republics can offer them.
And what is the Argentine Repub-
lic doing to cause US to fear that her
agricultural products, may drive the
American products out of the Euro
pean market?
As long ago as 1888. a stock census
of that Republic, declared that there
we're then grazing over her fertile
lands rs. 900, 900 sheep and 22,OOO,-
600 head of cattle. Sheep may be
grown there proftably for their pelti

that we can sell no meat to that
country, and will find it difficult to
compete with them in the European

Something about Politics.
BY BOB. n. ROUND.
(COntinued.)

And now to tell you how the masses
are to blame for the corrupt uses of
money in politics. 1t is truth beyond
contradiction that a man cannot buy
anything for money unless the article
is for sale, whatever it may be; so that
if man gets any political office through
the corrupt use of money he must find
men who are willing to be corrupted by
selling to him their support. otherwise
his money would be of little use in
gaining the end sought. 1t is to-day
not only custom but necessity for
the man who desires public office to
make thorough canvass among the
people to whom he looks for support.
This canvass cannot be conducted with
out money. There was time, you
know, in the history of our politics

WHAT THE ROBIN SAID TO ME.

One cold day in early springtime not so very long
Came robin to our garden meath my window
in the snow:
There he watched my grated window, and his
bead eyes glanced me DER
And the little fellow knew me- he had seen me
there before.
Some three years the little robin in the elm-tree
Had his home. his mate and children-and my
window facing all;
And his seeming recognition. as breathed the
prison air.
Lured my thoughts from darkest brOOding, from
deep sorrow and despair;
For the robin. that dumb creature, nothing but
Came to see me; and his gladness all my noblier
nature stirred.
Still remained he. and soft chrpings from his
merry throat did flow;
Till my heart through the barr'd window went to
rObn in the snow.
your high domain
Some angelic touch has taught thee to lead man
toward heaven again?"
Nearer hopping came the robin, and more cheer
full seem d to be;
In communion will tell you what the robin said
"'Once upon time-in the long. dark. hazy vista.
'' In what now is Battle Hollow, dwelt NecOma
Orphans of the Mohawk nation-of that pure
blood, non alloy ~
of st. CrOiN.
''FrOm the warmer climate southwark came the
Blackfeet to this shOre
Came the ObjiwayS, SacS and Foxes, and from
Maine the Sycamore;
Came to free that virgin maiden, to demand her
restoration
Lovely sister of Necoma; and the goddess of her
nation.
''Softly changed the mllrmuring lakelet to Still
water. hushed in awe!
At this mighty horde of nations all arrayed in
CHASTITY war!
In the midst and heat of battle. lightly touched
sAealthy footsteps Of the Pequod, with his poi
SOned arrow near.
Onward sped the fateful arrow. like venom'd
flashing dart
the life spring in the heart;
Broke the spirit of NecOma; cursed the ground
Sealed the doom Of Battle Hollow, for chained
spirits ever more.
-'.Then the pure and sainted maiden, on her
breast the carmine stain,
Was transformed into robin, for NecOma's s
For Neco@a ioVed that sister, poured devotion
on her throne;
Pure affection of woman is kingdom of its
own.
-''Cheer thee up, be not disheartened! Others
have their sorrows too;
Tell Tom Hanley for the robin, that his serfdOm
is most through.
In those clouds of darkest sorrow, some small
ray will meet the sight;
For Lloyd Porter and James Irwin deepest
gloom was turned to light.
"POpple GrOve-poOr Rose, the farmer, robin
will bring news to him;
And Cole Younger, in the library, also to his
brother, jim
That the sister of NecOma brings this mystic
message, heard;
Nothing but little rObin-nOthing but little
bird.
Bringing balm to the afflicted, and the mission is
his joy
To the world he sends glad anthems through

al knowledge, whose chief duty is to
make an award on disputed points; but
men who will try to bring the parties
at issue to mutual understanding.
When an arbitrator can accomplish
this it is well but when he has patched
up forced agreement it is generally
useless, and sometimes worse An ar
bitratOr'S award differs from a legal de
ciSiOn in that it deals so largely with
future events as distinct from past ones.
A court makes decision about the past,
and enfOrces penalty. An arbitrator
makes an order for the future, before it
goes into effect either party can claim
that the conditions have changed, and
can refuse to abide by it; and penalty
cannot easily be enacted for such re-
fusal. Under these circumstances the
demand for arbitration is a mere ma
neuver for position. How then can our
fundamental difficulty be met? Only by
process of prevention. For the failure
to adopt these means, the corporations
are in a position of public trust and
responsibility; even if they do not meet
this responsibility they are to blame.
Even where men are technically wrong
on the subject matter of strike, it in
dicates deeper failure of duty on part
of the general management to have
allowed such state of affairs to arise.
Great as are these difficulties we need
not regard them as inSeparable. They
must be met, unless managers are pre-
pared to accept state ownership of rail-
roads as Alternative, for the public is not
likely to allow the continuance of sys-
tenn which involves from time to time
absolute stOppage and paralysis of busi-
ness. 1t our railroad managers can pre-
vent this stoppage, well and good; if
not, they must not expect to hold their
present position of leadership. 1t is
not so much question, whether the
change would be an improvement as
whether we should be able to resist the
demand for such change
For the United States there is the
strongest reason for believing that such
a result would be Undesirable. We know
how public business is habitually mis-
managed; and their is no instance, even
among foreign countries with the best
civil service, of state railroad systems
conducted on the American standard of
efficiency. But large section of the
public more or less misled as to the
evidence, believe in state railroad own
ership, and desire to see it introduced
into the United States. AS long as
this is merely vague popular demand
there is little to fear from it. The con-
servative forces of society are strong
enough to resist it. But if the leaders
under the present system confess their
inability to meet vital public necessi-
ty, that confession will 60 with over
whelming force to demand a change.
For this purpose it must bring to the
front not merely leaders of dollars, but
leaders of men. Thus and only thus
can the corporations fulfil their respon-
sibilities to the public, and at the same
time return the rights which they at
present hold r. L.
