A chat with Hsa. Ccntsisssg . Good Story.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 22.-At Columbus called
on Gov. Mckinley. ] wns surprised to IND
him such handsome man. He has laughing.
penetrating eyes which search you through and
through as you talk with him. II any litho-
grapher will make n lithoGraph as handsome
and grand looking rs Mckinley. and tho Major
lie candidate. II will float him into tho White
House.
Speaking Of humorous campaign stories.
tho Governor said he ncvcr used them. But
since the campaign Deacon Richard Smith
of the Commercial is telling a pretty good one.
Tho Governor said:
Deacon Richard says Columbus lowtarif
man lost all his money on the late election.
He was very poor. He had depended on some
rewards from Gov. Campbell. but everything
went against him and hunger was staring him
In the face. In HE dilemma he went down to
Cincinnati to look for sone employment. He
failed everywhere. and. in his frenzy. finally
applied for a place at the Vine street Dime
Museum"
But what can you do9' asked the Dime
Museum man.
WELL sir. I'm freak
but you don't look like freak exclaimed
the surprised Dime Museum man.
But am
You nre? Whit can you do?'
"'Well. I'm free trade Democratic Mug
wump. nnd since the election l can tell the
truth on the tariff
"'rll give you 500 week! Get right in
there with the living skeleton"
Speaking Of the amusing incidents caused
by tho new tarln. the Governor said:
1T is funny about macaronL Now, didn't
know much about II. and when the question
come up In committee AZ to what we should
do with It. l suggested that We do the regular
thing. the same as we did with pearl buttons.
chickory. silk. and tin"
What was thatf"
why. let the raw material come In FREQ but
put protective tariff on tho manufactured
article and bring the, manufacturer to this
country. But some one said. why. the raw
material for nacaroni is wheat and think"
said the Governor. smiling what a silly thing
TO send American wheat to italy. sell It for
two cents per pound and then buy it back
made into macaroni and sell 1t for Elk ! 30 we
put u protective tariff on man ufact.tred macs-
roni and 10 and behold. have list OF seven
teen macaroni factories in America. and they
are now making better and cheaper macaroni
than we used to get from Italy -
And the pearl button bugaboo that used to
keep the Men York Times Mugwump up nights.
What of thatp" asked.
why. we've got fifteen pearl button fac
tories In this country now. one Of them away
out in Omaha; and they are paying American
wages. using better machinery and selling
American pearl buttons to the people as cheap
as ever. In fact. as with plato glass. we've
over produced pearl buttons. and now the
manufacturers are talking Of q pearl button
trust. Think Of a pearl button trust In Ameri-
ca when . year ago the Mugwump said we
could never make them |"
I believe the Governor is the happiest man
in America to-day. He is proud o! his work
and believes the tariff Is working successfully
In making the country prosperous and the
people rich. ELI PERKINS.

The Resignation Of tho Minister to
France.


Mr.. WHrTEIAw REDS resignation Of the
Office Of American Minister to France will
be q loss to tho diplomatic service OF the
Government. He has we'll served his coun-
try. and has done credit TO himself by his
management Of the business Of the office he
has held for the past three years. He has
displayed skill. patience. and wisdom In
conducting the negotiations for the settle.
ment OF various practical questions OF con-
Germ both to tho United States and to France.
He has borne himself with dignity In 90
cordance with the traditions Of the Amer
lean mission in the French capital.
Mr.. REID has also administered with
such generosity and politeness those social
functions that appertain to his Office that
his successor will find it Is not easy to equal
his example. He has stood In high favor
both with Frcnchmen and with Americans
in France. He has maintained the most
cordial relations with the French Govern
ment and all its members. and has been so
fortunate as to win the esteem OF the liter
airy and artistic circles OF Partisan society.
In short. he has been in every way success
full as the American Minister to France.
Mr.. REID Is coming home TO assume the
management OF the Tribune during the
Presidential campaign. As q political OPP
ponent. we shall welcome him to the field
Of conflict, in which We hope his party is
doomed to defeat. but in which. we trust.
the battle will be waged by both sides &C.
cording to the rules Of reason and courtesy.

The Theological Discussion.

The latest contributions TO the pending
theological discussion are furnished by DR..
BRIGGS and DR.. VAN DYKE. They are inter-
esting. but they bring in nothing new.
The main point OF DR.. BRIGGs's lecture Of
week ago Is that the question of the
authorship OF the books OF the Bible and OF
the periods at which they were written or
compiled Is q question OF fact capable OF
demonstration. and that consequently Prof.
GREEN Of Princeton takes q dangerous po-
sition when he ANNOUNCES that he will
give up the inspiration OF tho Pentatouch II
II is not written by MOSES" The Biblical
critics OF whom DR.. BRIGGS IL one. present
pathological evidences which. they declare.
show indisputably that the Pentateuch could
not have been written by any one man and at
any one period. They point out radical diff
ierences Of style and language as proofs that
there must have been a long separation be-
tween the dates OF its writings. Mere
dogma, they say. cannot upset such con-
illusions. for they are based on facts and
evidences presented. Having proved their
case. they declare that they arc saving the
authority OF the Scriptures and preserving
their sacredness by propounding a theory
Of inspiration which does not depend on ira
ditional theories rs to the individual author
ship OF the particular books. The real enc
mics OF the Bible, they say. are Prof. GREEN
and the others Of the Princeton school. for
these occupy position which scholarship
makes absolutely untenabe. It's real
friends and defenders. they declare. are the
Christian critics who accept the demon
strated facts and try to maintain Its author
ity In spite OF them. As the theory of the
old school cannot stand, another theory
consistent with these facts must be con-
structed. they argue. and such theory
they claim to have built up without doing
any actual violence to the old conceptions
Of inspiration.
That is what they profess to have done.
But their definition OF inspiration Is so
widely apart from the popular understand
ing Of the term that they are not accepted
according to their pretensions. People know
very we'll what Is meant when it Is said
that the Bible Is the Word OF Cop. aud
therefore truth indisputable. They UNDER
stand that it is all Divine and all true.
But when they are told that, though it
is false In fact and human in construction.
