A Change of Base.

The tariff mongers have changed their
base in accordance with campaign ex.
igencies. Formerly their cry was the
"home market" and they did not con-
ceal their contempt for the poor markets
of the countries of South America. Now
their whole talk is of reciprocity with
South America and of the wonderful in
crease in the exports of breadstuffs last
year. which they attribute wholly to the
Mckinley tariff. When the exports of
breadstuffs shall again fall under more
favorable conditions in Europe and under
the natural influence of trade obstruc-
ton, the tariff mongers will again have
the "home market to fall back upon.
The great beauty of high tariff logic is
that 1t can readily adapt itself to any and
every conceivable condition of things

IT'S ROTTENNESS.
YHE ATTACK OF JUDGE AlTGElD ON
THE ADMINISTRATION.

Filters Attempt to Reply, and His Failure
The Rottenness of His Management of
State Affairs shown.
| Several weeks ago Judge Altgeld made
| speech at Joliet in which he pointed
out that the state institutions, especially
the charitable institutions, were mere
hotbeds for political intrigue. the propa-
ganda of certain political cliques and
factions. He said that they were badly
and corruptly managed, and that the
money appropriated to the state for
Charitable purposes was not used effect
lively for such purposes
AT once upon the publication of Judge
Altgeld's speech the Republican papers
became frantic in their denunciation of
Judge Altgeld. They demanded to know
why and whereon he based his state
ments. They accused him of making
sweeping accusations without particu-
lars
Gov. Fifer, very much disturbed.
undertook at Taylorville to defend the
state institutions from the statements
made by Judge Altgeld, and complained
that no particulars were furnished
At Jacksonville few DAYS later.
Judge Altgeld furnished the demurrine
Republicans with particulars. He point
ed out that corpse had floated in the
reservoir in the Jacksonville Insane
asylum for weeks, from which the
water given to the patients to drink was
drawn, and how the facts had been sup
pressed and an attempt made to gloss
over the horrible details of this affair.
He also pointed out how in the state
institutions fully 60 cents out of each j
dollar was paid for salaries and attend |
M
tutions' reports, he showed that the gross |
amount paid to employees out of the |
funds appropriated for the maintenance |
of charitable institutions, indicated that
at the ordinary rate of wages there was
one salarydrawing employee to each
three or four inmates.
He still further pointed out that in
none of the reports of the twelve state in
situations. nor in the reports of the state
board of charities there was then any
thing showing how many persons are in
the employ of the state in these institu-
lions, nothing to indicate the rate of
wages paid TO any given class of en-
ployes or anything whatever to show
how the peoples money is expended
He showed that while the trustees Of
these institutions furnished an itemized
statement in regard to the expenditure
of every cent of money outside of sala-
ries and attendance, even in the line of
such things as spools of thread, soup
tacks and so FORTH that no
details was given in regard to the expend-
iture of hundred of thousands of dollars
for wages.
With these particulars before them,
the Republican organs and Gov. Fifer
will not be likely to complain that they
have not been furnished with details
upon which Judge Altgeld based hts
assertions

a PRACTICAL ANSWER.


About NOman'S Place.
While learned discussion has been
going on concerning the Legitimate
duties of women-what they can and
can not do-they, themselves, are quiet
ly finding out their own strength and
endowment, and are making the most
of them. They are doing this, too, in
accordance with the best ideals of
womanhood, without sacrificing their
womanliness and without lessening
those qualities that best fit them for
wifehood and motherhood. For 1t is
striking fact that few of the women
who have departed from the beaten
path are unmarried. The large majority
have husband and children whose needs
frequently have forced them to make
the most of their energy and knowledge.
Some time ago the writer was sitting
on the piazza of cottage at northern
summer resort A woman drove up and
halted. She sat on the front seat of

We're capacious bags and baskets filled

out of the vehicle, giving the reins to a
boy who sat beside her, and spoke re-
assuring word or two to the fat, restless
pony. He seems gentle enough" she
remarked, but he's got proper spirit
and it sometimes takes strength to hold
him."
Then she asked "if we were likely to
have any books or magazines that we
didn't care to take home with us. The
winters We're long there, and they had
to stay in the house a good deal, and
books were Il real blessing"
She was promised an assortment of
light literature, and this opened her
heart.
She was a large, cheerful person,
with broad shoulders, a round, rosy
face. but she said that she suffered a
good deal with rheumatism in her hand.

| In that wilderness, at that remote
period, there were no schools to teach
and few children to attend them if
there had been; there were no people to
