WOULD DO GREAT HARM.
The Anti-Option Bill Likely to B,
Thrown Aside.

The Anticipation Bill Likely to Be
Thrown Aside.
New York Times.
1t is now generally accepted in con-
gress chat the anti-option bill. original
ing in the senate, is likely to be thrown
aside on the ground that it embraces
revenue provisions which the senate
has no power to propose. But doubt
lees similar bill will come from the
house sooner or later. We should say
that it would fail in the senate if the
maj ority of the senators could be re-
lied on to vote in accordance with
their own convictions, for it is in
credible that the greater number of
them, even in the present degenerate
condition OF that body, have not the in
telligence to see that such law would
only do infinite harm for while and
then would have to be repealed. They
must know that whatever evils are at
tributed to dealing in options are really
due to the OveranXiety of men to get
rich and to the faliibility of human
Judgment, two sources of mischief
which even the congress of the United
States is powerless to abolish. On the
other hand, the direct, continual. gen.
eral and permanent advantages of this
system are very great, and if it be abol-
iShed some other system of substantially
the same sort would have to be invented
to replace it.

A QUEER MEASURE.

The doctors of the regular, orthodox
schools must have strong grip on the
Ohio legislature if it really means to
pass their bill extending a protecting
arm around them. 1t is quite reason
able that those who hold to the MCKIN-
LEY philosophy should advocate almost
any monopOliStic measure. The osten-
sible purpose OF the scheme of course,
is to drive out quacks and protect the
physical welfare of the people. AS the
three tailors were I'VE, the people of En-
gland" so the people to be protected are
essentially the architects and promot-
ers of this legislation. 1t is of general
interest, as its adoption in so prominent
state as Ohio would lead to efforts to
extend it to other states. The main
feature of the bill is to tax the physi-
clans who go about from town to town
license so great as to virtually prevent
their practice in this way. The kind
solicitude that the people shall not be
imposed upon by incompetents and en-
prizes could easily take the shape of
rigid eXactionS in skill and attachments,
but that would not relieve the difficulty.

exceptional ability and skill, graduates
of tirst-class institutions. Often people
of various localities would avail them
selves of their services, and they
visit different points. st. Paul has
some such that are high authori-
ties in their lines. The trouble
with the regulars is that these special
lists usually advertise their business in
the newspapers. This is violation of
the professional code. Practitioners are
not understood to shrink from newspa-
per publicity when it lauds their pro-
fessional work. They give quiet point
erS at times to generous prints, but
their hand must not be seen. There is
really no reason for any distinction in
the law between the man who confines
his practice to one locality or goes about
from place to place. Under the pro-
posed Ohio rule the Savior would need
license to 90 about the land healing
the diseased. But this code is likely to
go out before the progressive and lib
eral spirit that is coming into the pro-

THE WORCESTERSHIRE.

There has been a good deal of criti-
eism evoked by the GLOBES sugges-
tiOns of Saturday last in reference to
the governorship. Some people have
been so unkind as to say that the list
was an impossible one, that it was more
conspicuous for its omissions than for
anything else, and that fully half of the
names presented would never be seri-
ously thought of in connection with the
office. A number of Minneapolis Dem
ocratS have protested that they have
better gubernatoriai timber than their
brigadier mayor, and still, small voice
from Sank Center. which has but slight
respect for the Christian Sabbath, wants
to know what is the matter with the
North Star statesman from Washington
county. At first thought one would
expect the GLOBE to be discouraged at
all this. But it is not the least bit. On
the contrary, it finds it very gratifying.
Criticism is the mother of discussion,
and that is what the GLOBE wants
to induce. Nothing could ever be
more unfortunate than to have
the time for the nominating convention
arrive with the candidates all unde-
bated. A hasty choice might then be
made, to be repented Of as the campaign
advanced. The Democracy needs
strong man for captain, and such
one can be discovered only by the most
careful search. a well-rounGed figure
will not fear the closest inspection, and
the party'S press can contribute no more
valuable service at this time than to
turn the light of publicity on all the
available material.
1t should be borne in mind, however,
In the GLOBES defense, that it did hot
intend its list to be exhaustive. Were
its columns many more than. they are,
they would not sdffice to contain in a
single issue even brief mention of all
the worthy. Its aim was to be stimu-
lating rather than complete. Nor did it
say that all the names suggested should
necessarily be considered further. 1t
especially guarded against this mistake
by adding that no doubt some thus
singled out would not be willing 10
undergo the toll of the preparatory
battle or to discharge the responsible
duties of the position. The place, while
an honorable one,is really very exactlng
In its demands. Many gentlemen in the
past nave shown great reluctance about
accepting it. A. RoLLo McGILL, the
Sage of st. Anthony Park, for example,
was so bashful few years ago at the
idea of being governor that for some
days after the election it looked as
though his competitor would have to
relieve him of the responsibility.
So also the present incumbent. after
one term of worry and overwork, was
backward as could be in the last contest.
He cared so little for the honor that, had
1000 people changed their votes, Mr..
WILSON would have had the office
THUS upon him. The same sort of un-
willingness will characterize a good
many who would be admirable candi-
dates were it not for this weakness.
But it does no harm to mention them,
just the same. They may be entitled to
this compliment. however reluctant
they may be about running. Not all
whose names are called can be chosen.

duties do not mean business distress,
and how at the same time they remove
burden from the shoulders of the
poor. The tariff off OF sugar has meant
saving to every home in the land, and
yet has carried no industrial crisis in its
wake. So would it be in the case of
wool. On the other hand, should the
protective system be overthrown in its
entirety. peoples fears might induce the
very confusion they have been taught to
dread. The proposed method, in other
words, will be educative. 1t will show
voters the value and the safety of free
dom. To be practical and educative at
the same time speaks volumes for
programme, and SO the GLOBE in
dorses it.

IN THE MAGAZINES.

The complete novel in Lippincott's
Magazine for March, "a Soldiers Sc
cret," is by Capt. Charles King, who
alone among living Americans has the
secret of the military tale. What he
does not know about army life in the
West is not worth knowing, and what
he knows he can impart with unsur-
passed and unfailing charm. The post,
the bivouac. the battle field-whatever
goes on at these he makes to live again
before us; for he has been part of it
all. and his heart is with the cavalry
still. His last story has a very recent
theme--the Sioux war of 1S90-and will be
found equal to any of his previous work.

government has made an appropriation
amounting to about $3.50, 900 for the rep
resentation of the arts and Industries of
the country at the worlds fair. The
illiberal spirit that passes for protection
to home industries has had recent exem-
plification there, but the willingness to
profit by the disposition in the United
States to buy its luxuries and productions
OF art was never greater. Its exhibition
at Chicago will be a very taking one,
and worth to the people of France vastly
more than its cost. They need buyers
among those who have money and eX-
pensive tastes. France will continue
to be the most noted producer of lux
uries, and the number of rich persons
who can invest in such things is not in
creaSing so rapidly in any other quarter
as in the United States. The French
brand has fascination for such that
none other has. Its customers on this
side are likely to multiply greatly if it
can hold its prestige as the producer of
luXuries and the artistic adornments of
wealth

Philadelphia Record.
1t is a fact, which the tariff-mongers
will doubtless be able to explain to theil
own satisfaction. that while the duties
on wool are higher than ever before,
the number of sheep grown in the
United States has declined to per
cent within the last year. On the other
hand, in free trade England, where
wool is on the free list, the number of
sheep has increased. What is more, the
demand for domestic wool is more
lively, and the markets are firmer than
those in the United States. According
to the reports of the agricultural de
partment, the number of sheep in the
United States in 1891 was "A 1888, OO0l
while, according to the official British
reports, the number of sheep in Eng,
land was %, 7335, 900. The gradual de
cline of wool production in the United
States, under system of high ''protee
tion.' is seen by the fact that in 1873
the sheep in this country were Officially
estimated at 50,626, 626 head.
