IHE acme of the mugwump's thought
Is reached these days only when he can
quote some of the views of the late
James A. Garfield on reduction of the
tariff duties. The trouble with the
mugwump is that he fails to remember
shat ever since the Morrill, tariff was
enacted the Republicans have reduced
the tariff, by the bills of 1872, 1888 and
1890. and added hundreds of articles to
The free list.

The open letter of Cardinal Gibbons
advocating the opening of the Worlds
fair on Sunday, is the most recent indi-
cation of the ever broadening tendency
OF the mind that prelate. The cardinal
has learned how to be deeply religious
and thoroughly American at the same
time. Some of his protestant brethren
who are always preaching liberality
might learn good lesson from Cardinal
Gibbons.

ENGLAND has for some time focused
her greedy eve upon the peaceful aud

ernments for obtaining possession of the
islands will differ radically.

The Illinois Pentagraph last week,
before the election which ''snowed
Weaver under" in Georgia, commenting
upon the inevitable, said: General
Weaver must be aware of the fact that
when the peoples party orators want to
speak anywhere in the North they are
given respectful hearing, although the
republicans of this section fully realize
that the only effect of the populist ticket,
if it carries any Northern state, will be
to throw the next election of the next
president into the democratic house.
The difference in the treatment accorded
the populist candidate in the republican
North and the democratic South must be
apparent to Weaver and must convince
him that he is playing into the hands of
his worst enemies in seeking to carry
any of the states of the Northwest. The
thing then for Weaver to do is to come
home and Withdraw his name from the
race and take the stump for President
Harrison. 1t is only when the principle
of free debate and honest ballot is fully
established in the South that any other
party than the democratic will have a
ghost of show, and it is only by keep
ing the republican party in power that
this principle can be eventually estab-
iished in all fections of the country

TO BRIDGE THE ENGLISH
CHANNEL.

One of the most recent of the many
large projects advanced by modern en-
gineers is proposition devised by two
Frenchmen, Messrs. Hienant and Sch
neider, for the bridging of the English
channel. Schemes for traversing that
bit of agitated brine have not been rare.
The idea of the tunnel has been sug-
gested repeatedly. Boats which would
overcome the sickening pounding of
choppy waves have been peculiar oppor-
tunities for winning fame by flying over
the difficulty. The bridge plans of the
French engineers are believed to be at
least possible of completion, but numer-
Gus objections have already been ad-
vanced. First of these is the moral GER
tainty that the bridges would be con-
6tructed at immense cost of life. Dur
ing the construction of the Forth bridge,
where caissons had to be sunk to depth
OF only twenty -four meters, many work
men died and many more became de-
crepit for life. Compressed air is not
good for steady inhalation. 1t begets
an@mia, paralysis and congestion. The
depths whereto the caissons in the chan
mel would be sunk are far greater than
at Forth, and the treachery of the i'll
famed channel waves would make bridge
building still more precarious. 1t would
be an immense convenience to travel
from Paris to London without dose of
NAL de mer. Mercantile interests might
also gain from the shortening of the
time of freight between the two capitals.
But it is questionable whether the ad-
vantages to be obtained would repay the
world for its trouble.

Nor watched the sunset after rain"
Their pathway was the busy street,
Their trysting place the Office stair,
Yet wei know JOY more complete

And why should rustic love alone
BE decked with all poetic art:
These dun, gray city walls have known
The beating OF a nations heart.
The weary workers come and go;
The secret OF each soul is dumb:
Yet stik II times a radiant glow
Across f.eir wayworn lives may come.
And these, my happy lovers, knew
Hard toll, small wage, and scanty fare;
The skies they saw were never blue
But love made gladness everywhere.
His step upon the once floor
Was sweet TO her as thrushs song:
Her face that passed the open door
For him made sunshine all day long
And doubtless, though these two would fair
Rave left awhile the city's roar
To loiter down country lane,
Or lingcr by some lonely shore;
Yet sometimes fate was kind, as when

And in n carriage mcant for ten.

Major Big-pawed and blg-breasted,
he was considered the finest dog in
South Africa. My father was mis-
on the very edge of the civilization that
had spread out from the ever growing
diamond fields. There were hardly
any whites there, and this probably
accounted for the great affection exist

We were always together. No Won

Our house stood on the edge of a for

For my age was considered a good
hunter. but my shooting had been con-
fined to small game. Since the arrival
of my new rifle from England l

larger game. My parents had eau
