Midsummer dullness characterizes the
business situation and it exactly de.
scribes the condition of trade in manu-
factures except in print cloths. A fuller
description of the general market is not
necessary. The trouble which underlies
the financial condition of the country
would require the pen of the prophet
rather than that of the chronicler. A
week ago man who would have pre-
dicted the passage of free silver bill by
the Senate would have been laughed at
The same public now confidently be-
licves that the Democratic House will
vote against the bill. Will it be again
deceived? How much longer will our
gold continue to follow in the wake Of
: the a, 200 900 which went to Europe last
week? When will England again begin
to buy our products in money instead Of
bonds? How much longer will the
effects of last years crisis continue to
dull tho confidence of the business
men?
These are all questions which must be
answered before any marked improve
ment can be expected. The wheat crop
Is now almost out Of danger. The corn
crop is still uncertain but promises an
abundant harvest. Railroad earnings
would assure dividends if managers
exercised due care in the right direc-
tions. The present year has shown
fewer miles of increased roads than
many years past, thus lessening the per-
centage Of increasing competition and
leaving moro freight to be handled by
the existing roads. All these facts favor
greater general profits in invested
money.
But the uncertain elements OF the
Richmond Terminal as well as our local
New England will continue to be
menace to speculation for some time to
come. That unwieldly aggregate Of
properties known ~ Richmond Terminal
is not unlikely to be severed into its
original parts, now that the Danville
and East Tennessee systems have been
put in the hands of receivers. The con-
test between Mr.. Clyde in the interest
Of his steamboat lines and the
Drexel, Morgan faction in the interest
OF themselves has resulted in the defeat
Of the latter and their withdrawal from
interference in the X. rs affairs and IL
introduces an element into the settle
ment of the trouble that is a step back
ward rather than forward. The name
of Drexel, Morgan d Co. would have
been valuable to the property and would

The act of the Scotch coachman, Au-
gust Scheitner, who lost his life in an
attempt to rescue horse from burn
ing barn deserves a more enduring me-
mortal than forgetful public is likely
to erect.
In the multitude of splendid deeds
there is frequently one like this stand
ing ont SO prominently that its teaching
is vividly impressed upon the mind. 1t
is not deed dictated by reason, neither
is it the result of moral obligation
or christian duty. 1t finds its cause
solely in the Unborn humanity OF man,
in the promtings Of the human soul.
Such heroism is a most eloquent refuta-
ton of the doctrine of total depravity.
and the pessimist who can not see in it
truth that controverts all his theories
must indeed be obdurate.

Cleveland is set up as the idol of the
very, very pure; how they must squirm
as they read his toadying reply to the
invitation to make Fourth of July ad-
dress to Tammany. II am satisfied"
he wrote, "that the Tammany Society
will not lose the opportunity the occasion
affords to teach that the Declaration Of
independence was movement on the
part of people determined to govern
themselves; that the patriotism it
inspires enjoins unselfsh care tor
our country's welfare; that political
endeavor is only safe and useful when
undertaken in the peoples interest. and
that political organization is only
effective and successful when approved
and trusted by an intelligent popular
judgment"
Cleveland knows what Tammany is
and what it stands for; he has Haunted
his hypocrisy in the faces of the Mug
wumps.

The mugwump press has been deriv-
ing extraordinary satisfaction from
the fact that Senator Carlisle voted
against free silver. Their satisfaction
that he has done so is probably COM
mensurate with their fear few days
ago that he would not do so. 1t is a
strange commentary on the Democratic
party and its love of honest money that
the position Of its greatest statesman in
the United States Senate OH the money
question was so doubtful that no one
knew his views until he voted them last
Thursday.

AT WOODSTOCK.

AS on previous years one of the most
interesting. manifestations Of American
Fourth Of Julyism was Henry G.
Bowen's celebration at Woodstock. This
is a real, old-fashioned Fourth, with the
reflective element not quite eliminated,
and it appeals to the whole country
through the voluminous press reports
everywhere given of it.
In yesterdays celebration, addressed
by Indian Commissioner Morgan, Sec
retary Benjamin f. Tracy and Attorney
General Miller, no more effective speech
was made than that of SenatorsFrye of
Maine upon American shipping. He
urged upon his audience the wisdom of
shipping subsidies. He declared that
this industry has suffered, not from pro-
lection, but from an entire want of it.
Our coastwise trade emphasizes the cor
rectness Of this view. That has been
protected by absolute prohibition. The
result is marvellous exemplification of
the beneficence of this policy. We have
now about 3,5OO,OO0 tons engaged in this
trade and as many more i'm river and
lake transportation. Our fleet is five
times larger than that of Great Britain,
twice larger than those of Great Britain,
Germany and France combined.
'What is the remedy" asked Mr..
Frye, "for the notifying condition of
eur foreign -teHHage2 Our Deme-
cratic friends haven't the slightest diff
Guilty in solving the problem. Their in
slant and confident reply is free ships
England agrees with them. Indeed,
they and England never differ in opinion
as to tariff or the revival Of our mer-
chant marine. Now, 1 affirm, first,
that free ships, if We take advantage
of the privilege, means the gradual
but certain destruction of our
coastwise trade. Who supposes
for moment that our people will buy
ships abroad, and consent that they
shall forever be excluded from partici-
patton in this coastwise trade II the
ships are bought, this participation is
logical and inevitable. Second. If
our Democratic doctors are right; If we
can buy equally good ships abroad for
25 per cent. less, and the law permits us
to do it. then our great shipyards, which
have been showing such splendid
capacity in the last few years, must be
given up, our skilled ship mechanics
scatter, and we retire from the business;
and, in case of war, suppose buy our
naval vessels abroad. Wouldn't this
be grand consummation? Why.
great maritime nation like ours might
as well be without a constitution rs
without ships and shipyards."
The subject of Mr.. Fi,e's argument
is one Of especial interest to RHODE ISL
AND. This State. with its fine harbors
and skilled iron workers, and with fine
engine works and machine shops at
hand, might add the building of iron
ships 10 its other industries with benefit
to all. But IL could -; do so II foreign
built ships were akhitSed to registry.

Mr.. MARION CANNON of California,
delegate to the Peoples party conven-

that "the producers of the earth had

been refused the producers aforesaid.
