HARRIsON's GREATEST DANGER.

The position of President Harrison in
the ante-convention canvass is a peculiar
one, and the popularity is not lessened by
the fact that what is generally weakness
bids fair to develop into strength. The
Mugwump likes him not; but the forces
which are trying to make head against
him are the spoils politicians. The indie
pendent and reform element may not con-
ceal their dissatisfaction, but the shadow
of David Bennett Hill or his substitute on
the other side tempers their opposition.
On the other hand the conferences of
Platt, Dudley, a representative of Alger
and our own Pennsylvania bosses, in the
strenuous endeavor to find another candi-
date go far toward constituting testi-
mOny of merit for Harrison. If the spOils
politicians keep on with their opposition
to the President people may yet think of
loving him for the enemies he has made.
But the President has mostreason to fear
danger not in the house of his friends, but
in his own house. A news item has recently
appeared saying that General Harrison
does not fear either Quay, Piatt or
even Blaine, so much as he fears
the breaking loose of Russell B. Whether
this is correct statement of the Presi-
dents mental condition, it is certain that
such fear would be well founded Hav-
ing narrowly escaped from the central
position in that Yellowstone Park scandal,
Mr. Russell Harrison recently proceeded
to make things perilous for his father by a
published interview about Blaine. The
young man proceeded to remark that Mr..
Blaine is both a mental and physical
wreck and could not be trusted even to
discharge his duties at the State Depart
ment. If anything can call the Blaine
boom into active operation again, and in
duce the Secretary to reconsider his decli-
nation, it will be the wagglng of Harri-
son tongue to such effect as this
If the President can keep the machine
politicians in their present state of aceph-
alous opposition, and put muzzle on his
hopeful but indiscreet offspring his path
is clearer. But the latter precaution is
imperative.

and Shenandoah proloneed their VOYAGES

and Shenandoah prolonged their voyages
indefinitely by only using steam when
necessary to overtake prizes or run away
from United States war vessels of greater
weight. The fact should not be lost on
our present naval authorities The coast
defenders like the Miantonomoh, which
are not expected to 60 far beyond our
ports, do not need sail power, but cruisers
should be able at least to hold it in re-
serve.
In addition the fact that our new vessels
are obliged after comparatively short voy-
ages 10 60 into dock renders it pertinent
to inquire whether science is unable to de-
wise any method of sheathing steel with
coDper.

not more than ten eggs in winter.
and quiet hen will be more success
full than one that is active. The
greatest danger comes from some pre-
cocious chick that is never at rest, it
causing the hen to be continually fol-
lowing it at times, thus preventing
her from lowering the weaker ones.
1t is better, however, to keep the
hen confined in coop, even ii she
and the chicks have a dry shelter, for
there will be less liability of loss from
chilling of the chicks. AS the chicks
increase in size they will not be able
to find places under the hen. if she
has many of them. 1t is quite credit
able to hen in winter If she can
