Robbing Peter and Cheating Paul.

Chicago Herald
Ii it did not have such melancholy
results, the amazing game of confidence
called projection" would be the most
laughable thing ON earth.
The iron baron comes to Paul, his
workingman, and whispers confident
tally that if he will help to rob Peter
(the public at large) the swag will be
divided, and that Paul will lind his
share of it on the pay roll.
Decided by the baron's plausible man.
ners and specious promises, Paul goes
into the conspiracy, and poor Peter is
knocked down, bound hand and foot
and relieved of his vaIuabIes.
In pursuance of this conspiracy Allie
ghany county. Pennsylvania, where
iron and steel works and workers
abound, rolled up majority of 81 900
for Benjamin Harrison and tariff rob-
berry in 1888, and III due time the tniev-
ing Mckinley bill became law.
1t was PauPs stalwart blow at the
polls that made Peter helpless, but when
it came to rifling Peters pockets the
iron baron got first hold on the swag
and, without giving any of 1t to Paul,
walked off with it to his castle i'm Scot
land.
Paul, not seeing any increase on the
Day roll, put in his plea for .'divvy,"
but the baron's agent told him he had
expended his share ON improvements, !"
by means of which Paul would be re-
lieved of much hard labor, and for this
he ought to be thankful on his knees
day and night, for now he could have
time to visit the libraries the baron had
given to the public, and thus Improve
his mind.
Naturally enough Paul demurred to
this expenditure of his share of the
booty. and undertook to make a row
about it.
The baron thereupon called out Pc
ter'S troops at Peters expense, and sent
Paul to the right about, without either
booty or work. The big thief had
robbed the little thief.
And this is what makes the Herald
say that, as confidence game on both
Peter and Paul. protection beats
monte" and ''thimble rigging" all to
pieces.

FOR PRESIDENT,
GROVER CLEVELAND.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
ADLAI e. STEVENSON.
UNITED WE WIN.

A majority of more than $4,000 of the
voters of Minnesota agree in their op-
position to the Republican Legislation
1pon economic questions. Agreeing
lpOn these questions, there should be
40 difficulty in making that agreement
effective. That there is not an agree
aent among them upon every and all
Dther questions is no reason why they
cannot cooperate upon the vital ques-
lions until those questions are settled.
A convention Of the Peoples party
will meet in the city today. A part OF
The business of this convention will be
Lhe presentation of state and electoral
tickets. Ii the members of this con-
ventien-we mean the leaders-will put
aside all personal vanity and greed for
office. and come to their work with
clean hands, honest aims and patriotic
sndeavor, the state of Minnesota can
and will be redeemed from the rule CT
the higii-tax monopolistic party.
If the positions to be filled (. y be
allowed to seek the men best IN
instruments to carry forward the great
reforms OF which there is crying need;
il wisdom be exercised in searching for
these men: if only men of the highest
character, who are controlled alone by
patriotic motives. be chosen; men to
whom the public, irrespective OF party
will point and say, these men are emf
nently fitted for the work gwen them to
do-succcss can be achieved.
If, on the other hand. blatant dema-
gogy and consuming greed rule the de-
alterations of the convention; if that
body shall degenerate into a squabble
OF political charlataDs for self-aggrand-
izement. the honest people who hold
principle and the duty of success above
office will turn from the feast prepared
tor them with loathing.

CYRUS w. FIELD.

In the death of CYRUS W. FIELD the
world loses one of its greatest beneiac-
tors. JOHN BRIGHT called him the "Co-
LUMBUs of modern times" and lie mer-
tied the designation. COLUMBUS dis
covered a new world; CYRUS FIELD, by
his Atlantic cable, ''mOored the new
world alongside of the old" 1t is not
easy to determine which was the grand
er achievement.
And yet, like COLUMBUS, this latter
day pathfinder has died disappointed
man. broken in spirit and overwhelmed
by reverses and calamities. 1t is one of
the saddest chapters in recent history,
this story of the last days of CYRUS
FIELD. 1t is too familiar to the public
to need recapitulation. Let us turn
from it and dwell for moment on a
brighter page.
AT thrty-five years of age CYRUS
FIELD was master of consid-
cradle fortune, the product ell
tirely of his own brains and.
industry. Inspired by the grandeur
of the undertaking, he determined to
devote that fortune and the brains and
industry back of it to the establishing of
Geographic communication between
Europe and America. For twelve
years. or from 1854 TO 1866. he toiled and
struggled necessarily i'll furthcrance of
this noble ambition. Rebutfs which
would have broken less indomitable
will only served to spur him on to
g$eater effort. Once, in 1858, success
seemed to have been achieved. A cable
was laid, and message OF congratula-
ton from Queen VICTORIA to President
BUCHANAN was flashed across the thou
sands of miles of "old oceans drear
and melancholy waste" But the tri-
umph was short-liyed. Within a few
weeks tile cable became silent, and
public faith in the project received a
well-nigh fatal shock. 1t was not until
eight years later that victory finally
crowned Mr.. FIELDS efforts, and this.
the first permanently successful At
lantic cable, was the fifth which Mr..
FIELD had started across the Atlantic.
In the science of submarine telegra-
ply MI. FIELD was not an originator.
He was not, in fact, scientist at all.
He dealt with conditions, not theories.
1.-The way to resume is to resume" said
HORACE GREELEY. ''The way to lay
cable is to lay it," said CYRUS FIELD:
and he laid it. The world owes HIM an
inestimable debt of gratitude. With
sorrOwful reverence it acknowledges
the debt today, and promises to in some
degree repay. it 10y according to the
memory Of CYRUS w. FIELD an imper
shable fame.

coinage on the industrial classes If
they are to be benefited there will be
10 trouble in passing the silver bill.

Gov. Toole, of Montana. in brief adj
dress, welcomed the delegates to Hele-
La. He said the great West will have
All opportunity to formulate its claims
and present them to the American peo-
pie. The great difficulty as to free
coinage was not in the scarcity, but in
the volume of collateral. lie deprecated
the idea that free coinage would cause
other nations to dump silver upon us.
Free coinage was not the only question
the mining congress was to consider.
