QUITS POLITICS FOR MINING.
Charlie Gilman, having gone out Of
politics, has turned his attention to
mining on the Mesabi range, where
he has been a great part of his time

politics, but I am out Of it entirely,

Considerable of my time has been
spent on the range, and I am max.

THE METHODS OF TAMMANY.

HE MEIHODS OF TAMMANI.
Organization, and not education;
success and not improvement; victor
ious war, and not glorious peace, are
presented as the supreme aims of
Tammany. The regiment is the
model for the Tammany primary, and
the ''six hundred charging down the
valley Of death" is cited as an in
spring example for the politicians.
The ideal duties and relations of fell
low-citizens in city affairs are not those
of peacefully considering them accord
ing to their nature as so much bust
ness to be done-the making and care
Of streets, buildings and parks--or as
go much discretion and skill, to be
exercised concerning schools, police,
and public health, with all of which
quarrelsome partisan factions can
have no relations but those of perni-
cious intermeddling,-but all these
duties and relations are those of re-:
morseless conflict, of partisan politics.
and hence Of endless war between hos
tile factions end camps. A more un-
civilized, diabolic and detestable the
DRY Of municipal government-one
more destructive of municipal pros
perity and morality-was never
sketched. As we read this sketch
and imagine the great Indian chief,
Tammany with his paint and his
feathers, leading his tribe to battle,
We can see tomahawks cleaning be-
tween the lines and hear the warhoop
in the distance. It defends a despo-
tism the King Of Dahomey might
envy, and a perpetual warfare over
which tie Yahoos and Sioux would
whoop and dance forioy. It would be
unjust to say that there is nothing
but the didatic presentation of this
theory Of eternal and insatiable war.
There is . variety as great as in the
hues Of zebra or in the contents Of a
Bologna. That bumptious and auda-
cious yet speclous and soporifc oratory
Of which Tammany has fountain,
everywhere lubricates The merciless
logic Of the war-code. The spoils
system defended il its most despotic
repulsive, and vicious form. All
the employees Of the city government, :
says our chief, afrom the mayor to
the porter who makes his fire, should
he members Of the Tammany organi-
zation.n Hence. every poor laborer
appeals for employ ment, and every
youth seekinga clerkship, under the

Roads.

A soft Christmas" characterized
about three-quarters of the surface of
the United States in 1891. Hundreds of
persons missed the fun they would have
had because the roads were so bad they
could not get away from home. Hun
dreds of merchants had most disastrous
Christmas trade because farmers and
their families were fast mud bound at
home, and could not get to town even
for bottle of brandy wherewith to
flavor mince pies. Thousands of hearts
were sad, thousands of pairs of pretty
eyes looked out upon a dull. gray,
wretched, mean and vile world. Why
Just because the United States has the
worst roads Of any country in civiliza-
ton; roads that would make even wild
buffalo of the plains blush for his kind
if he had to travel by such trails.
While most other improvements, even
to opera singers and race horses, have
advanced in America with great bounds,
our public highways have remained
the same as they were when farmers
kept six horses to do the hauling that
two can do on decent track, and vii
lagos ten miles apart were shut off from
one another three months in the year as
completely as if they were ON opposite
sides of the continent because the roads
were impossible 1t is a disgrace to an
enlightened country.
The road laws are as antiquated in
many parts of the country as the old
laws against witch burning. With all
the money at command in this country
agriculturists and business men ought
at once to take measures to improve our
highways There is no spot where fine
road cannot be built, and such road
viii improve the value of property
as nothing else can. Americans ought
to emerge from the mud and go to road
building, letting no dunderhead old
bunker notions stand in the way.

A London paper, discussing the
labor question says that one of the
strongest arguments against the theory
that the consumer pays the import
duty is to be found in the fact that
when a foreign nation increases the
tariff on British product, the estab-
lishment charges as well as the wages
on this side of the water are lowered,
In order TO give the manufacturer or
the merchant chance to deal success
fully with the change. If the con-
sumner paid the duty there would be
little cause for our exporter TO grumble.
And our manufacturers and work peo-
pie do make sacrifices to meet the extra
duty, and we accordingly hear grum-
bling from both.
