Railroads and Public Roads.

The general agitation, by newspapers,
magazines and individuals, in favor of i'm
proved roads should especially interest rail
road authorities. Indeed, the railroad peo-
pie might, by joining the movement, do
good work for the corporations they repre-
sent, at the same time greatly benefting
the sections of country through which their
lines pass.
The relations between railroads and coun-
try roads are necessarily very close. Good
country roads, giving easy access to the rail-
roads, mean increased travel, regular move
ment Of local freIghts to and
from wareh ouses, larger freight shipments
increased value Of real estate adjacent to
depots and increased population in the ter
ritory tributary to the roads. Bad country
roads mean just the opposite There is not
a well posted railroad manager, probably &,
but can judge of the condition of the coun-
try roads along his line by the amount and
character Of the local traffic. During wet
weather, when the wagon roads are i'm
passable, being hardly more than success
sion Of axle-deep mud holes. and with
bridges washed away, local traffic is almost
phIblyEeus OOOu TohQs WOulu clADRo all
of that. A properly constructed macadam-
lied roadbed is proof against almost any
amount Of rain.
To foster the road building movement It
has been suggested that the railroads should
make reductions in freight rates on all ma
chinery and material for road building pur-
poses to be delivered on their lines They
should also assist In the distribution of
pamphlets teaching the Importance OF
good roads and giving instructions for the
construction and maintenance of such
roads. Each depot agent should be furnished
with such literature, which he could, with
out Inconvenience or loss Of time, give to
farmers and others having business with
him. And in other ways the railroads
could help. Presidents and managers
would lose nothing and might gain much
by giving this matter their attention.

A Bad Hotel.

1.-THE worst hotel ever struck" remarked
Horace Vinton meditatively TO a Baltimore
Netos man, was in a little town called Pallas in
Kansas. How our agent ever discovered it is
more than i can see, and there was only one
hotel theirs, so we had to take Hobson's choice.
On the following morning about 8 o'clock there
was q knock on my door and in walked the land
lord. Would you like your breakfast brought
upY he inquired, adding hastily. You see. we
haven't anything but coffee. The cook ran
away carly this morning and took the steak
with him. When l mildly suggested that he
buy some moro meat he glared at me angrily,
and remsrking that he had paid out cash once,
walked away. 1t was queer old hotel, but the
experience was an amusing one"

A Good Smoker.

An observant newspaper reporter has dis
| covered that Mr.. Cleveland is a good
smoker. At the Lenox lyceum dinner in
New York he cleaned back in his chair like
a big man and smoked his cigar like big
man." All of which is equivalent to saying
that Mr.. Cleveland smoked quite naturally.
| For he is big man. Leaning back
in bis chsir-in other words, assuming q
comfortable position-he smoked and en-
ioyed his cigar as a man Of broad and philo-
sophical mind might be expected t. do.
He did not chew the end of the weed until it
looked like floor mop, nor allow the fire TO
die out half dozen times, but he smoked
There is a good deal of character ex-
pressed in the way men smoke, when one
comes TO think of It. The emptysheaded
dude takes into his lungs a poisonous
draught from a cigarette and, with a
grin, extales it through his nose. In
doing this he never cleans back in his
chair like big man" because he isn't big
man aud cannot successfully initiate one.
The tough young Teller" sticks any kind
Of cigar that may come handy into
one corner OF his mouth, and elevat-
ing both the corner of the mouth and
the lighted end of the cigar TO q surprising
| degree, he swaRgers and smokes for scenic
effect, not for pleasure. The political ward
heller smokes as a matter of business, without
| style or consideration for his cigar, except
that 1t must be cheap, for be must give
away a number of them to the "foaters'
he is endeavoring to take care of. The anx.
ious politician does not do much at smoking
He forgets all about it in his mental excite.
ment, allows his Eight" to 60 out, chewt
the end OF his cigar and finally losses il
away half consumed and with one end OF
it looking like the top Of a post after
having been hit dozen blows
by pile driver. Workingmen,
fishermen and philosophers smoke very
much alike. When the time comes for
smoking they 60 about it in a manner that
denotes contentment and confidence. With
pipe or cigar, as the case may be, they
smoke for pleasure, at the same time deriv-
ing profit from the grateful weed. For
thinking and smoking go naturally together,
and the man who cleans back in his chair
like big man and smokes his cigar like a
big man" is in the proper position and the
proper frame Of mind TO think big thoughts
for the good of his country.

Why the Republicans Are Lukewsrm.
From the Ne.O York Pos: Undl.

From the Net0 York Post (Ind,l
There has been much speculation as 70 the
reason why republicans show so little interest
in the republican cause this year-why nearly
10000 republicans who voted in Vermont four
years ago refused to turn out this year, while
the democratic poll fell but one short OF the
total in 1888 We are OF the opinion that one
cause is the cowardice and dishonesty mani
tested by the republican managers, from Presi-
dent Harrison down to the editors of rural
organs, regarding the force bill issue. For
years and years they told the people that this
was the most important Of all
questions, and that the party was
pledged to enact an effective law. They
made large proportion OF the
voters believe their declarations so that thess
voters desired republican victory most of all
because It would Insure the passage of such
legislation. Now they suddenly turn around
and pretend that they do not care anything
about the issue; that. II the republicans carry
the election, there will be no difference in this
respect from the result IL the democrats sue
coed in short, that the force bill ia nothing
more than "reniniscence. which they are
tired OF hearing about. The change Of base Is
too great and too sudden. The republican
voters do not know what % think Of It..

been npplauded until the building shook
Whitelaw Reid talked about the tariff.
Why Mr.. Reid's partisan should single out
the Methodists to illustrate his profane
figure Of speech is not known. There can
be no doubt that he meant disrespect to both
the church and the candidate. But, unwit.
tingly, he paid compliment to the Meth
odists' mighty power for reform. for the
democrats stand a very good chance OF
overthrowing the party Of political iniquity
in Iowa in just twenty-one days time.

Mr.. Blaine's appeal TO the Irish vote, in
his Ophir Farm speech, has met with an iu-
dignant response from Bourke Cochran, one
OF the leading Irishmen in this country and
one OF the foremost orators Of any country.

A Tariff for Manufacturers Only.

From The PhilddeIphtd Record (DeDl.l.
The gist of Mr. Blaine's speech is that more
men in New York are Interested In manufact-
ures than in other callngs, and that lin Ohio,
Michigan, Indiana or Illinois the products OF
manufactures are greater in pecuniary amount
than the products of agriculture in these four
great agricultural states" And he argues
therefrom that the tariff party has a right to
carry these states. II this means anything, it
means that the tariff is for the manufacturer
only, and that the pretenso that 1t protects
Agriculture and other calngs is a fraud. 1t was
a queer speech to come from a professed friend
of the tariff.

very obvious relation TO each other. policy
of taxation which is becoming more and more
odious to the general consumer cannot be sus-
tanned without resort to corrupt strategy, and
the most available plan in the minds of the re-

verting the will Of the people by an undue and
despotic exercise Of the federal authority.
