Father Conry means relaxation OF the
policy which has made the building and
support Of parochial schools mandatory
upon the Roman Catholic parishes and
people. It is q significant fact that the
German Catholic congress, which met az
Buffalo last summer and passed strong
resolutions against any relaxation Of the
present policy of parochial school support,
was not attended by Cardinal Glib
bons. nor by Archbishops Corrigan,
Ryan, Riordan or McQuaid. The sue

the CahensIy effort to secure from the
Vatican an order for the appointment of
German born and bred ecclesiastics TO the
charge OF German Catholic churches and
dioceses was in execution of his American
policy; for he does not believe in clannish
influences, such as are nurtured by pafo-
chial schools, in which the English Ian
guage is not taught the children as IN
Wisconsin. In fact. the English speaking
clergy of the Catholic church are not IN
sympathy with the German Catholic
policy, and it is not impossible that Cardi-
nal Gibbons may have determined to relax
his former policy Of support to the
parochial school,

In the OPT MON of the New York Tribune the
most grotesque book maker row extant is the
special correspondent OF the London TiDses who
was sent TO Chile at the outbreak of the civil
war Mr. Hervey reached Santiago by way of
Buenos Ayres and the Andes, and was so vio-
lent partisan of Balmsceda that his recall be-
came necessary before the final battles at Val
paraiso. He returned to England with a con-
sciousness OF having been false prophet re-
specting the issue of the war, and OF having
made himself and his journal ridiculous; but
this painful experience has not deferred him
from publishing an elaborate recital of his ad-
ventures as a war correspondent, nor from re-
vealing in detail the intimacy of his
relations with Balmaceda and other leaders, who
made use of him for their own purposes. He
seems to have had the queer notion that he was
sent 10 Chile TO form an independent judgment
OF the abstract merits of the constitutional ques
tons involved in that conflict, and TO steer the
Times editorially, rather than to get the news
and to tell his story without partisan bias. His
recital OF his personal obligations TO Balmaceda
shows how thoroughly unfit he was for the re-
sponsible duties OF war correspondent II we
may use vulgar, bu. expressive word, he seems
TO have been mashed" on Balmaeeda from the
day of arrival in the Chilean capital

General Sheridan, whose famous raid OF the
Shenandoah valley in 1854 was made with q
view to depriving Early's troops of the means of
subsistence for their annoying excursions down
toward Maryland, is credited with the remark
that he meant to clean out the valley so thor
oughly that thereafter ta crow flying over il will
have to carry his rations." But q letter of Gen.
eral Grant to General Halleck, advising jus.
such measures and recently reprinted from
official records, contains the phrase, $50 that
crows flying over IL for the balance OF this sea-
son viii have TO carry their provender with
them." Instructions to this effect were sent to
General Hunter in the valley before Sheridan

SEATTLE. FRIDAY. JAN. Is.


For service that does not imply the Sc
we're hardships Of genuine military cam
paign in the field, the surviving soldiers
of the Union In Washington, Oregon and
California are doubtless well fitted; but
for an active, aggressive campaign Of hard
marching and exposure to all weathers,
the surviving veterans of the Union are
untitled by age, whether the scene of the
campaign is in Chile or on this Coast. The
surviving veterans average at least 50
years Of age today. A healthy man at so can
hunt and fish and camp out and do farm
work. but put that same man in the Garb
of soldier. where he carries a knapsack,
gun, haversack, blankets, oyercoat, can
teen, cartridge box and extra ammunition,
and march him 10 and fro in all weatbers
for thirty days and the chances are he will
be in a hospital, 1T for nothing but dis
charge. The Sons Of Veterans, boys from
eighteen TO twenty-five, are the proper ma
terial for soldiers who are expected 10 do
military duty in the field, bat the average
veteran Of the civil war Is only fit 10 do
daty In forts or TO garrison deposs Of sup
plies, or guard lines of communication at
the rear. Severe service in the field men
who have crossed fifty cannot endure. The
Union veteran cannot be counted upon
for the next war for any work more az
duous than that which is necessary to or
eanize and maintain G. A. r. campfire.
The surviving veteran can still cheer
the flag and sing army songs; he can
march in the ranks on Memorial Day; he
can tell with spirit and understanding
how fields were won. but he can no longer
win battles that are gained by hard march
ing and extreme exposure. A man of so
is Young enough TO do good deal of
service for the state, but he is not young
enough to make an efficient and enduring
soldier in the field in war time. OF the
men who became generals conspicuous for
efficiency on the field during our war,
counting volunteers and regulars"
Union men and Confederates, there were
not ten who had touched Is in 1851; there
were not six who had crossed 50.

THE OWL OF THE MuGwUnps.

The Democratic opposition TO Cleveland
is already of formidable force and food in
New York state. The New York Sun has
correctly measured the weakness of Cleye-
land: the almost unanimous preference of
the members Of the New York legislature
for Hill, Flower-for anybody. indeed,
rather than Cleveland confirms the Suns
estimate of Cleveland's nomination as
unadvisable and unsafe. The presump-
ton that Cleveland is personally popular
with the Democratic masses is without
foundation. He did nothing to command
popularity; he did many things offensive
TO the people and omitted to do many
things he promised solemniy to perform.
A brilliant, magnetic man is sometimes
forgiven when he commits serious mis-
takes. but dull, stupid man of unlovely
exterior and depressing manner is never
forgiven, whether he commits q crime or
only makes a blunder. Blaine might
make the people believe that an official
crime was only blunder, but Cleveland
is so dull and repulsive that he could not
convince the people that his blunders
were not crimes.
Among the impolicies of his admins
tration were his ''free trade" message,
which at once aienated the Democratic
protectionists who, with Randall, Tilden,
Hewitt and Grace, voted and worked for
his election in 1884; his rebel flag order;
his elevation of Lamar to the supreme
court of the United States. The Irish
American Democracy do not like Cleve-
land; the Democratic Union veterans
have not forgotten Cleyeland's incapacity
TO understand the offensiveness and in
decency Of his battle flag order; mis-
grouping of Calhoun, Sidney Johnston,
John Sedgwick and Garfield as all 'syalu-
able examples of American patriotism"
The character of Cleveland's mind is
that of the genius of commonplace,
shallow profundity. He says most abso-
lutely unimpeachable things with the air
of a man who had actually discovered a
new star in the sky hitherto unmarked
upon the charts of political astronomers
Cieveland's public speeches always recall
Horace Smiths picture of the fruit vender
of Constantinople, who solemnly ejacu-
jates, "In the name of the prophet, figs"
That is Cleveland; he is never weary of
posing on the platform and with pious
solemnity of manner proclaiming Gigs"
Dried and pressed political figs and dates
stand for the whole sum of Mr. Cleveland's
speech; he is nothing but that very COM
mon creature who only thinks he
thinks" which makes him far off from a
man of thought. He is SNUG, sluggish,
selfsatisfed creature, belonging to that
class of stupid people posing as philoso-
piers whose appearance always suggested
to an English wit the image of an FOWL in
the uniform of the Heavy Artillery"

THE VOICES OF EARTH.

We have not heard the music of the spheres.
The song OF star TO star; but there are sounds
More deep than human Joy or human tears,
That nature uses in her common rounds;
The fall OF streams, the cry of winds that strain
The oak, the roaring OF the seas surge, might
OF thunder breaking afar of, or rain
That falls by minutes in the summer night
These are the voices of earth's secret soul,
Uttering the mystery from which she came;
To him who hears them grief beyond control
Or joy inscrutable without name
Wakes in his heart thoughts buried there, i'm
pearled
Before the birth and making of the world.
Archibald LGmona1n in SerfbnEr'a

neighbor more than self; the passion for
helping and saving other men at
the expense of self. This instinct
is the essence of Christianity, and Cardinal
Manning knew that. restrained by sober
reason from all tendency TO fanaticai ex-
tremes, this love OF ones neishoor more
than self vas the most effective moral
force at the disposal of society, and he
nobIy awaited himself of this knowledge.
Tt is worth noting that Of all the con-
spicuous sympathizers with the Oxford
Tractarian movement within the English
church, Manning alone was the peer OF
Newman in intellect and moral courage,
and followed him over to Rome. Pusey
and Keble chung TO the Anglican church,
lived and died IN its arms.

ball of fire about the size of a wagon wheel
was seen by Mr.. Joseph Zimmerman and his
brother on their farm, near williamsport, Nd,
about O'Clock Christmas night, which moved
along in straight line about ten feet from the
earth, whirling rapidly in its flight The two
men were awe-struck and ran at the approach
OF it. When nearly opposite where they stood,
the immense ball struck q tree and tore
through the branches, setting them on fire.
A hundred yards further on it struck another
tree, and in an instant disappeared as suddenly
as Ii appeared. The mysterious and frightful
spectacle was witnessed by others about that
hour. and, according to the williamsport
Leader, the authentic statement of the spec
tators is borne out in proof through the burnt
tree, which is positive evidence that it was not
@ freak of the Imagination.

There are some people who are constitution
ally unable to go behind an official record.
Usually they are only amusing, but sometimes
they succeed in making nuisanees of them
selves. For instance, there is a convict in q
Georgia penitentiary who cannot get out though
his sentence has expired, all because he has
been put down on the records as dead. Another
convict of the same name did die and some OF
the chuckle-headed officials have got him
tangled up with the living man. So everybody
will have to wait until the courts straighten out
the books by declaring that it is the dead man
who is dead

The emperor OF Japan, to whose sagacity the
rapid progress made by the Land of the Rising
Sun IS largely due, is SO years of age. Born in
1852, Mutsu Rito succeeded his father in 1867
and was crowned in 1865: year later he mar
ried the Princess Haruko. The emperor il the
one hundred and twenty-frst OF his race who
has ruled the country. He is great believer in
Western civilization, and in 1889 he freely
granted a constitution TO the people, whose rep
resentatives met for the first time in the autumn
OF last year. Both the mikaio and his consort
are popular, and European travellers to Japan
invariably speak in the highest terms Of them.
