Give us a clean Campaign.


So says The Review of Reviews, and
its demand will DO echoed by every
American citizen. We want neither
Irish nor English electioneering methods
in the coming campaign-neither head
breaking nor indecent abuse In the
bitter political contest in Great Britain
in the past few years contestants have
not stopped at any means however vile
or violent to carry their points, The
personal abuse of Parnell and the drag
ging in of his wife's name at political
meetings fastened the death of the
great Irish leader. An American cannot
read without deep indignation that Mrs,
Gladstone and her daughter have been
subjected to unspeakable insults through
the mails and otherwise. The Briton of
the lower class is not choice of his
language when his temper or his pref
udice is aroused, Women of less self
control than Mrs. Gladstone and her
daughter would have been driven wild
by the letters they have received.
Now, in the name of civilization let
us have neither violence nor vileness in
the presidential campaign before u.s..
There are great public questions up for
settlement that are enough to occupy
every voter and orator without the need
of going out of the way to hunt up mud
to hurl. In its plea for a clean cam
paign The Review of Reviews says:
The nations own self respect should forbid a
campaign of disagreeable personalities so far
as possible. The battle should lie between par
ties rather than candidates. 1t is safe to pre-
dict that the campaign will be very severe
struggle. There should be firm resolve on
all sides to make 1t clean, fair and honorable.
Mr.. Ingalls,, with his proclivity for epigram-
matte statements, once remarked that the
decalogue and the sermon on the mount have
no place in our practical politics. He did not
mean, as he has often been stupidity accused of
meaning, that moral rules and Christian prin-
ciples ought to be disregarded in political life,
but that, in point of fact, they are to a great
extent ignored and despised. If that be true,
then this is exactly the time when something
should be done about it.
Mr.. Porter's statistics of religious adherence
show that large proportion of the American
people profess to live by the decalogue and by
the sermon on the mount. 1t is a very flabby
and ineffective sort of Christianity that will
tolerate this year a palpable resort to lying,
defamation, bribery and other immoral prac-
tees in the great contest. If a sound morality
does not underlie all our political life we have
everything to fear for the future. With pure
and manly methods prevailing, no irreparable
harm can come to the nation from the success
at the polls of any contending party. II the
men who conduct the practical" campaigning
will but respect the best wishes of the candi.
dates who head the tickets and the sentiment
of the main body of voters they will give us a
decent campaign.

This much is certain: When the right

This much is certain: When the right
spirit exists between employers and en-
ployees the employees know the en-
ployer at all times pays them as much
wages as the condition of his business
justifes. If they have confidence that
he will do this, when tight place comes,
in which it is necessary for him to
say he must cut down wages temper
arily till better times, ninety out of
every hundred workingmen would &C
cept the cut, Employees in this intelli-
gent country are as ready to listen to
reason and as capable of it as the man
who hires them. The business of en-
ployers should therefore be to cultivate
this spirit of confidence and good will
among their workmen. 1t can be done;
it has been done in hundreds of individ-
ual instances, in firms where there has
been never a strike. But hints Of
violence and gunpowder on one side en-
gender inevitably the passion for violence
and gunpowder on the other.

Plymouth Rock Astonished.

No doubt the Puritan's landing place at
Plymouth on the stern and rockbound
coast of Massachusetts would utter
strange things if it could talk. For here,
at the very spot where the Pilgrim Faith
ers set foot on shore from the Mayfower,
Felix Adler's School Of Applied Ethics is
in session at this time. The school was
founded by some excellent people, who
think that you can teach morality on a
common ground on which members of
all religious denominations can unite,
from Presbyterian to Jew and Roman
Catholic. The old Pills would have
whipped around town at the tail of a
cart anybody who promulgated such
atrocious sentiments.
After all, though, it is not likely that
the world will this summer be turned
over by the School Of Applied Ethics,
however astonished the Pilgrim Fathers
would have been. The subjects chosen
for the papers will not apparently startle
the mass of mankind one single hour
from their money grubbing and selfish
ness. They may amuse learned men with
taste for intellectual gymnastics, but
that is all. They are not wildly thrill
ing to the average taste.
Here are some of them: "The Idea of
Justice, with Its Political and Economic
Applications" 1.-THE Relation of the
Church to Civil Government, Historical
ly and Legally Considered;" Variations
of Moral Standards and Ideals in Con-
nection with the History of National
Life and Thought ALI this in July
and August! One feels inclined to COM
mend to the mercy of heaven the poor
fellows who must listen to it. The old
fashioned Puritan Sunday itself was a
merry-go-round besides this sort of thing.
Of the people whom these excellent gen.
tlerAen want to benefit. who will read a
single one of their dry and tiresome old
papers? Goto! Give us something with
live blood init. Where are the "thoughts
that breathe and words that burn?"

In Defense of Small Men.

Mr.. Philip Kent, presumably for his
own consolation, has been searching the
records to see how many men small in
stature and light of weight have helped
to move the world. He says that small.
ness of body has nothing to do with
greatness of brain.
1t is rather surprising, too, the num-
Der of men he brings forward to bolster
up his assertion. He says the worlds
greatest soldiers have been little men,
but one cannot resist the inference that
to make this point he has omitted the
names of the well grown generals.
We find, however, that Attila the
Hun, the "Scourge Of God," so named
from his fierceness, was little bit of a
man. Sir Francis Drake and Frederick
the Great We're short men. Napoleon
Bonaparte was only feet IA inches.
Wellington was 5 feet 8. Lord Mel.
son was 5 feet 4. Among writers
Milton was short, and Lord Macaulay
was dumpy, apparently not nearly SO
long as some of his own sentences. Mrs.
Carlyle speaks Of "poor little Dickens. "
Pope and Voltaire were mere mites of
men, while John Stuart Mill was feet s.
John Calvin was very small man. So
was the artist Turner. The great
French statesman and author, Theirs,
was 5 feet 8, "soft and sausagelike,
while Gladstone himself is only feet s..
On the whole, by properly leaving out
the big men who have been great, Mr..
Kent makes good showing as to the
quantity Of brains that may go with
scant inches.

Ducks for the NAVY.

The novel suggestion has been made
that ducks should be trained and used
for naval purposes in the same way that
pigeons are used for conveying military
messages. The proposal comes from
Major Allatt, a practical pigeon trainer,
who says that if we are going to use
birds to fly over water for naval pur-
poses ducks would be better than pig
cons, because when the duck gets tired
he drops and sits on the water until he
is rested and then goes on again. Ducks,
moreover, can fly by night, while pigeons
cannot. Major Allatt thinks that sea
gulls might be trained also for message
bearing purposes.-London Court Jour

The Canadian canal tolls which have
been so much complained of by United
States citizens as discrimination
against this country are still regarded
by the president as violation of our
treaty rights with Great Britain. This
position he holds to solidly. We have a
treaty with great Britain emitting us to
commercial rights with that country on
the most favored nation basis. There
fore when British colony discriminates
against us in any commercial matter it
is violation of our treaty rights and a
subject for discipline at the hands of the
mother country. This is the ground
taken by the United States state depart
ment in the affair of the Canadian canal
tolls.

FRIDAY MORNING, JULY %, 1892.

The present Congress is going to
appropriate just as much money as
the "billion dollar" Congress did
The only difference Is that they have
worked with no regard to the needs
of the public business, but simply
with regard to make record OF
economy before the people, The re-
suit is that the public business is
crippled with injudicious cuts where
money is really needed, and still the
record is one of more money spent
than in the previous Congress.
