Order is said to be "the first law
of heaven" cleanliness is akin to
goodness" and "industry is the
mother of virtue"
Acting on these maxims, in 1890,
a practical Republican Secretary of
War conceived the idea that the
true way to make an Indian into a
good citizen is TO first make a soldier
OF him, thus teaching him to be
clean, orderly, and industrious.
To do ordinary work, to obey or
binary laws and regulations, to an
Indian seems degradation worthy
only of a squaw. But he is by in
stinct and habit a soldier, and the
work of a soldier is, he thinks, man.
". Taught to care for his horse,
his arms, his uniform, his quarters,
to be prompt, orderly, and obedient
as a soldier-who can doubt that
the Indian has made long stride
toward civilization and citizenship?
Many companies of the hitherto un-
tamable red men have already been
enlisted and are doing good service,
and the good work is still progress
ing.

The I light Of Other DAVIS

The date when man first discovered
how to supply himself with artificial
light must be very far back, but many
generations went by before he had
anything better than torches for out
door use, and for indoor conveniences
wick floating loosely in a vessel of
oil. Gas as an illuminant is not old,
the electric light is the invention of
yesterday, while there are thousands
of people not yet three score and ten
whose youthful lessons were learned
by the feeble CLEAN of tallow can
die. In the country households, the
manufacture of weekly or monthly
supply of candles came as regularly as
wash day. The soldiers of the late
war remember ''star" candles very
well but doubtless few can tell whence
the name. The discoverer of a pro-
cess to separate glycerine and fatty
matters from stearic acid in the max
ing of candles was the French man
DeMille, whose factory at Paris was
located at the "Barriere del l'Etoile''
barrier Tor gate) of the star-and
from this circumstance his manufac.
lures were known as "star" candles.
The days of such illuminators are
gone, and the luxurious cars of our
modern railroads are lighted by gas or
electricity. To many eyes, however,
the electric glare is unpleasant, but
all are satisfied with the soft yet brill
liant illumination of 1.-THE Burling-

The cry that some American
goods are sold abroad at less price
than at home ought to mislead no
one, says the Portland Oregonian.
In free trade England it is common
to make the export price lower than
the domestic wholesale rate. This
is done to offset competition in the
foreign market and also to place
goods within the reach of consumers
who might find the shipping ex-
penses on them too burdensOme.
England even allows goods to be
made in bonded warehouses, so that
they can be exported on better terms
than those sold to the home trade.
1t is the interest of the whole coun-
try to introduce American manufac-
lures abroad even if our merchants
have to sell them at less than the
current price at home.

The ignorant Democratic papers
ask for the repeal of the tin-plate
duties; and talk as if there never
had been a tariff on tin plate until
the present law. Under the Repub-
lican policy the tin-plate duties have
simply been increased from a rate
which was so low that it was mere
ly tax on the consumer-thati is, it
was not sufficient to cover the mar
gin between the labor cost of pro-
duction here and the labor cost in
Wales. Hence, under the old rates,
no one would invest in tin-plate
making, and the foreigners had the
field to themselves. Now Americans
are turning out tin plate every day.
