No doubt every reader has seen the state
ment that it takes mans weight of lead
to kill him. The statement is usually
looked upon as rhetorical hyperbole, sug-
gested by the fact that comparatively few
out of the whole number of shots fired in
battle take effect. Marshal Sale first made
the statement that forms the basis of the
above, only he said that it would take 125
pounds of lead and thirty-three pounds of
powder to put each of the enemy in the
long TRENCH" Wild and visionary as
this may seem, it appears that there was
really more truth than poetry in the re-
mark.
At the battle of Solferino, according to
NJ. Cassendi's carefully deduced calcula-
tions, comparison of the number of shots
fired on the Austrian side, with the mum
Der of killed and wounded on the part of
the enemy, shows that 700 bullets were ex-
pended for every man wounded and $4,000
for each man killed. The average weight
of the ball used was thirty grains; there
fore it must have taken at least 126 kilo-
grams, or 227 pounds, of lead for every man
put out of the way. Yet Solferino was q
most bloody and important engagement.
Bogert, in light of the above, was about
right when he said:
"War is awful, but the sound of war is
awfuller million.

An infant phenomenon has been discov-
cred at Plaisance, suburb of Paris, in the
person of little girl called Jeanne Eu-
genie Moreau, aged only FIVE but endowed
with most extraordinary memory. She
is a walking encyclopedia on all matters
appertaining to the history of France and
especially of the great revolution, is an
adept also in natural history and at the
same time answers without hesitation or
error practical questions about cooking,
gardening and household management.
The youthful prodigy was born in Paris
in January, 1887, her father, Philippe
Moreau, being humble laborer, but de-
scended from revolutionary hero whose
name figures in the annals of 1889, and who
was decorated by General De Lafayette
after the taking of the Bastile Owing to
the poverty of her progentor, Eugene
Moreau was adopted by a widow-Mme.
Callay-who, noticing the retentive facul-
ties of the child, cultivated and developed
them with assiduity until the phenomenon
has become capable of passing stiff com.
petitive examination and of putting tc
shame many schoolboy or schoolgirl Of
maturer years and more expensive educa-
tion.
The fate of Eugene Moreau will nc
doubt be that reserved for all intellectual
prodigies of tender years. She will be ex.
hibited to scientific men and reported
upon; she will probably receive an offel
from an enterprising Snowman, and in ali
likelihood Eugene, should she survive
academical testings and. public examina
tions, will eventually settle down to the
life of schoolmistress, a calling for which
her marvellous memory will pre-eminently
fit her.-Paris Cor. London Telegraph.

SpecIous Reciprocity.

Democrats welcome reciprocity wher
ever it removes any needless restrictions
upon commerce. They denounce Nc
Kinley reciprocity because while keep
ing the word of promise to the ear it
breaks it to the hope; because it is with
countries with which we have little
trade; because it lowers prices for
foreigners only and not for our own peo-
pie; because its main purpose is to dis
tract attention from the exactions of a
robber tariff. The whole increase of our
trade to the Latin American countries
under reciprocity, even if the goods had
cost us nothing, would pay the duty on
tin plate for only eight months. These
are the reasons that Mckinley reciproc-
ity is pronounced sham.-Louisville

Stevenson ms a Campaiener.

The activity and ability shown by
General Stevenson thus far in the cam
paign demonstrates that he is one of the
most effective campaigners in tho
country, and for that reason a vice presi-
Dental candidate who brings to the
ticket an unusual degree of assistance.
Not only are his political utterances
judicious and effective campaign argu-
ments in which the Republican press
practically confesses itself unable to dis
cover flaws, but he possesses that happy
faculty of pleasing audiences wherever
he speaks and impressing the people
with his genial, hearty nature.
A thoroughgoing partisan and an un-
compromising Democrat, the candidate
for vice president is above all whole
souled, frank and good naturei citizen,
the warmth of whose natAre and affa-
bility of whose manner combine to make
him popular with the people. 1t rarely
happens that man can say as much
and talk as constantly as General Steven
son does without making mistakes which
can be used against him, but the tall
statesman from Illinois has shown him
self to be the master of tact as well as
Of oratory. Omaha World Herald.

A Robbery.

If a man enters your house at night
unbidden and carries off a quantity of
your valuables you do not stop next
morning to take an inventory of your
effects and find out what is mi sing to
the last item before passing Judgment
on the character of the intruder and
the nature of his act.
If you find that he has carried off all
your valuables you regard him as bur-
glar, and his act as repreheneible. If
you find that he has carried off only
one-half, or one-fifth you regard the
man and the act in the same light. If
he has taken half you do not say that
while he is somewhat Objectionable
person his action is toierable. If he
has taken fifth you do not Say that he
is an honest man, prosecuting lauda-
BILE and useful industry. If he has
failed to relieve you of anything,
through fear of your revolver or from
any other cause, you do not pronounce
him an estimable citizen deserving of
sympathy and encouragement. In
short, you do not consider that the
moral character of the man and the
moral quality of his act depend upon
the success he achieves in his burglar
ious enterprise.
Now read once more the words of
the supreme court of the United States:
ITO lay with one hand the power ofthe
government on the property of the citi-
zen and with the otherto bestow 1t
upon favored individuals, to aid
private enterprises and build up private
fortu. es, is none the less robbery be-
cause it is done under the forms or law
and is called taxation"
This is precisely what congress does
when it enacts tariff not for revenue
but to help individuals engaged in
some private enterprise or industry. 1t
lays the hand of the government on
the people and holds them powerless
while the favored individuals help
themselves to their property. The
court does not say that the seizure of
.one-half the property of the citizen In
this way Is iniquitous, while the
seizure of fone-fifth of 1t would be right
and even laudable. Itdenounces even
the seizure and appropriation In the
way ofone cent as robbery" The more
or less property taken has nothing to
do with the essential moral nature OF
the act.
Tariff for the benefit of favored indi-
viduals or industries is robbery, mo mat
ter whether 1t takes more or less of the
property Of the citizen. 1t Is not the

A "Double Endedn Tariff.

When the protectionist organs declare
that the Mckinley tariff has not ad-
vanced prices they wish to be distinctly
understood that it has advanced them
for all producers or manufacturers who
have been voting the Republican ticket
in the belief that the policy of the party
would enable them to get better prices
for their products and wares. 1t is for
this reason that the same organs which
tell the farmer that the imposition of a
duty on what he buys has really lowered
the price and was intended to do so; las
raised the price of what he produces and
was put on for that purpose, 1t is a
great thing, this tariff, and greatest of
all in its double endedness, so to speak.

Governor Mckinley VIII Please Explain.
When Governor Mckinley comes to
New Haven to open the Republican
campaign we hope he will explain more
fully than he has yet done how it is that
the foreigners pay our taxes. Many
thousand dollars worth of our govern.
ment bonds are held abroad. A lucid
explanation of how those foreign bond
holders can be compelled or coaxed to
pay the interest ON the bonds in their
possession would be valuable contribu-
ton to the science of political economy.
To borrow money from man and then
make him pay the interest and perhaps

The Free Trade Cry,

The Republicans propose to obtain
power to continue the robber tariff by
impressing the public mind with the
falsehood that tariff reform will be fol-
lowed by the ruin of industries and the
reduction of wages, and their chief
method of warfare is the cry of free
trade. No party favors free trade; tariff
reform is not free trade, but it is the
happy medium between no protection
and Republican fraud protection. Sooner
or later the people will demand relief
from the present unjust tariff law, and
the year 1899 is none too soon to make
and enforce the demand. Oshkosh

less robbery because Il may be commit
ted with the consent or approval OF a
majority OF the people. In the case to
which the quoted words Of the supreme
court relate, a majority had voted to
seize the property Of citizens and be-
stow II in aid of a private enterprise.
The court did not on that account hesi-
tate to denounee the act as robbery.
Tariff for the promotion Of special
interests In any degree isrobbery. By
no possibility can the robbery bepurged
away by reform. There will be an end
Of the robbery and the iniquity when
there is an end of the tariff for that
purpose. Justice will not be established
so long as there is a tariff for that pur-
pose to any extent or degree, even to
the millionth part of per cent. Such
tariff is iniquitous in its very essence.
