His One Subject.

A certain enthusiast made it rule to
talk of something really important with
every person whom he met. He believed
that any two people could find common
ground for conversation if they only knew
how and would exercise their knowledge.
But even he found one hard customer. Hn
had tried all the usual expedients, had
made suggestion after suggestion, offered
leading remarks upon various topics and
exhausted the resources of courteous ques-
tioning. In every direction he had been
stopped by polite mOnosyllables that gave
no opportunity for further progress.
There was no indication of aversion from
conversation on the part of the other, but
simply an appearance of hesitating timid-
ity and distrust of himself. This would
never do 1t would not fit in with the en-
thusiast's theories. Finally, frankly and
rather desperately, he said:
Mr. Jones, am thoroughly anxious to
make your acquaintance, to talk with you
upon some theme of mutual interest. do
not seem to be able to find our common
ground. Can you help me? If you will
suggest a subject of interest to you upon
which you will be willing to converse |
shall be most happy to attempt it."
Whereupon the other, visibly brighten
ing and leaning forward, confidentially an
swered, Just try me on leather!'-Lon-
don Tit-Bits.

Early DAYS Of Telegranhw.

Twas at Baltimore when the CLAY con-
vention met. participated in the Wing
national convention of ratification at Bal
timore May 2, 1874. In company with the
delegates from Maine, we left Baltimore
on either the Sd or 4th of May for Wash
ington. On our arrival at the station
twenty miles from Baltimore the train
stopped for wood and water. There was
small building opposite the train A man
announced from the door that if the pas
sengers would gather around the building,
in less than five minutes he would give us
the first message from Washington over
the telegraph wire.
He adjusted the instrument, which was
in front of the window that was Open We
soon heard the ticking of the instrument,
and the operator read from the strip of
paper the message, which do not remem-
Der. We gave three cheers for Harry Clay
and the telegraph.
The operator said he would send this dis
patch:
1.-THE cars have just arrived from Balti-
more. The passengers gave three cheers
for Harry Clay and the telegraph"
We then proceeded to Washington. On
our way telegraphing was the general topic.
The writer remembers well that one dele
gate, who has since been a member of the
cabinet, remarked, "They may make it
work this distance, but it will never reach
Baltimore" Another delegate said it was
all bosh; they could not make him believe
any such trash. On reaching Washington
there was crowd at the Capitol. The
writer, as we'll as most of the passengers,
went there Some one read from the front
of the building several kilograms from the
other end of the line. - San Francisco

Democratic Pedigree.

The Democrats always make it a
point at every convention they hold
of any Importance to trace their ped
igree back to General jackson and
Thomas Jefferson, and declare that
the Democratic principles of today are
in perfect accord with the principles
Of those "fathers of Democracy"
This habit of our Democratic friends
reminds us of the Vermont and New
Hampshire Yankees who always made
it point to trace back the pedigree
of their horses to "Old Sherman Nor
gan," "Hill's Blackhawk," or "Ham-
bletonian TO-"
The pedigree of the Yankee horses,
as rule, was just about as correct as
the pedigree Of the Democrats of to-
day-both being too far removed to
claim any relation to the "original
stock"

About Binding Irvine.

1t looks to the TRIBUNE very much
as though there was existing in this
country a monopoly or trust, which
intends to control the output of bind
ing Irvine until late i'll the season and
then, when there is great demand
for it and the article must be had, run
up the price to an exorbitant rate. At
the present time there is only very
limited amount in sight, and there are
no binding Irvine agents canvassing
the country for the sale of twine, as
is usually the case at this season of
tho year.
AS we understand it the National
Cordage Company has almost the en-
tire control of the manufacture and
sale of Irvine in this country, and that
corporation cares very little whether
the seven mills tariff is taken off or
not, as it is not at all prohibitory; be-
sides there is not much Irvine made
elsewhere. Still we believe with Sen
ator Davis of this state and other Re
publican senators and congressman
that it is best to put Irvine on the free
list. It is not in fact so much ques-
ton of tariff, but of monopoly. .e
1t is undoubtedly fact that the
cordage manufacturers of the United
States and Canada, in their combina-
ton, dictate the amount of sisal and
MANILA produced respectively in Yuc;t-
tan and and the PHILIPPINE Islands.
They tell the planters how much they
will take each year, and whatever is
raised beyond that quantity is simply
surplus. These are the only places
where the product is raised, and of
course it is much easier to get "corn-
er" on the article than it would be if
it was more generally produced. Jute
and hemp are used in very small guam
titles comparatively.
To our mind it is perfectly clear
that the National Cordage Company
is one huge trust, Notwithstanding the
fact Washington correspondent of
the Pioneer Press in recent article
written after the style of patent med
icine puffs-denounced trusts most
numerically, and closed by informing
the public that the National Cordage
Company was not a trust, but only a
corporation in very mild form. If
ever there was trust, that concern
is one. It may be mo trust" when it
sells Irvine, but at no other time.
Now then, as to the remedy: The
Republican congress of two years ago
passed law prohibiting trusts and
combinations of the character here
described, and the parties engaged in
them, or at least the principals, are
indictable. No penal law ever yet
executed itself, and this statute should
be followed up and put in force by
the combined action of the aggrieved
parties, backed up by congress.
Down with trusts, especially the
Irvine trust, say we.
