Carlisle for the Treasurv.

The report that Senator Carlisle has been
asked by Mr.. Cleveland to accept the secre-
taryship Of the treasury is being commented
on very fsvorably in all parts of the couu-
try. The nomination of Mr.. Carlisle for
that or any other high position of honor
and trust would give general satisfaction.
He stands in the front rank of public men.
Indeed, there are very few who are his
equals, intellectually. Being man of high
character, and thoroughly conscientious in
all his actions, he would give great strength
to MIR. Clevelands cabinet.
Mr.. Carlisle is perhaps better equipped
for framing tariff reform bill than any
other man in the country. He has made
the tariff study for many years and is
thoroughly acquainted with its workings
As senator he could have very little voice
in framing tariff reduction bill, but as
Secretary of the Treasury he would be in a
position to make suggestions In respect to it,
| One Of the reasons why Mr.. Cleveland
wants him at the head Of the treasury de
partment is, doubtless, to get the bsneft Of
his knowledge relative to the tariff.
| 1t is by no means certain that Mr.. Car
isle will accept the position. IL is safe to
say he can stay in the Senate during
the remainder of his life. He is very
| popular in Kentucky. and that state
seldom makes change in her
senators. If he accepts the secretaryship Of
| the treasury he will be in all probability out
of Office at the end of Mr.. Cleveland's term,
because it is not probable that Mr.. Cleve-
land will be renominated, having been twice
elected, and if Mr., Cleveland should be sue
eeeded by a democrat Mr.. Carlisle's services
might not be desired.
And there is another consideration. Mr..
Carlisle is q comparatively poor man, and
the pay of cabinet officer is small and his
expenses heavy.
Mr. Carlisle has several weeks In which
| 10 make up his mind. and il he concludes co
accept there will he no reason to fear that
the treasury department will not be wisely
administered.

Current Comedy in Paris.


| On the political stage in France tragedy
is being played, the climax OF which may
| include the death OF the republic. But the
lugubrious character OF the play is renewed
and Iightened by a sprinklinR Of comedy,
rich, rare and racy, such as only French
| men can play. One of the most amusing OF
these comedy bits was the duel between
! Deputies. Clsmenceau and Deroulsds on tns
st. Ouen race track.
Both PRINCIPALS went ont with iron in their
souls, determined to kill or be killed. Moth
ing but 'duel TO the death" would satisfy
Clemenceau, and DerouIede was quite as
determined as be that the affair should fur
nish at least one subject for the undertaken.
On the field both were "cool and courage
ous." Clemencesu, "the very best pistol

out to punoture the atmosphere with bullets

probable that still other challenges and &C

be fought where the public may witness the

Some time ago the superintendent Of a
Montana silver mine offered TO coin silver
dollars of more intrinsic value than the
standard dollar issued by the government,
at the rate Of 90 cents apiece. The treas
ury department. will take no notice of the
offer, of course. but the treasury officials
admit that there would be good profit to
the superintendent in the coinage of dollar
containing 400 grains Of silver at 90 cents a
coin. The proposition emphasizes the anon
alous position OF the white metal as circu-
lating medium.

The sprinner ELECTION plan.

From the Louisville Courier-Journdl CDer1. }.
What is called the Springer plan for electing
President and Vice President is a cumbersome
compromise between the electoral college
method and a choice by direct popular vote
IL proposes TO divide the electoral vote Of each
state in proportion TO the states vote for
President and Vice President. The existing
possibility OF giving majority OF the electoral
vote TO candidate who has minority Of the
popular vote grows partly out of the VARYING
fractions that arise in apportioning electoral
votes. This trouble would be reduced, but not
wholly removed.

The Speaker Of the Next House

Judging from special dispatches sent out
from Washington Speaker Crisp, as a can
didate for re- election, will have a good deal
of opposition. The authors of the dis
patches, however, are wrong. The truth is
that the few who are opposed to Mr. Crisp's
re election are doing good deal of talking
without having any foundation for their
talk. When the democratic caucus is held
it will be found that Mr.. Crisp is the choice
Of moro than two-thirds of the democratic
members. He is an excsllent presiding
officer and is popular with both democrats
and republicans. Why then should he not
be reelected $50 '--'s-' - - '..s: 81. 49,.
1t is asserted that he IL not In harmony
with MIR, Cleveland on the questions Of the
silver and the tariff. and that Mr.. Cleve-
land would like a man in the speakers
chair who will shape legislation in accord
ance with his views II is doubtful II this
assertion has any foundation, or that there
is any truth In the story that Mr.. Crisp has
been told he can have a first-olsss foreign
mission.
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Crisp are pretty
close together on the tariff question. Tariff
legislation that would satisfy one would
about satisfy the other. It is probable that
they do not agree on the silver question, but
Mr.. Crisp knows that no bill providing for
the free coinage of silver will become law
while Mr. Cleveland is President unless IL
is passed over his veto. and. hence, he will
hardly favor wasting the time of the House
discussing free silver bill.
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Crisp understand
each other, and it may be accepted as GER
tain that Mr.. Cleveland's influence will not
be against MIR. Crisp when the time comes
for electing the speaker of the next House.

A mild sensation has been caused among
milk consumers IN New York by the death
of several guines pigs that had been inocu-
lated with 'choice milk" intended for a
rich family. The little animals died, the
doctors say. of tuberculosis. The COWS that
gave the milk were killed, and it was found
that their udders were covered with tuber-
oulous tumors. The rich family mentioned
had been using milk from she same source
for some time, consequently its members
are on the tenter hooks of anxiety, and are
dosing themselves to remove any bsciIli
they may have swallowed.
