SILENCE Is perhaps the sincerest need
of praise that the majority of the people
OF this country can offer in eulogy of
Ex-President Hayes and General Butler.
The conspicuous acts of the lives of both
men we're not praiseworthy. Quite the
contrary, they are offensive even
now when studied in the light
Of history and after the passions
and the excitement, of the periods in
which they were committed. have sub.
sided. Personally Hayes was inoffensive
and Butler was man Of extraordinary
talent But neither man Is remembered
with admiration nor wept over with re.
gretful sorrow. Hayes took the highest
0ffice in the gift Of the people,
from the man whom the people wished to
have It, by fraud and rewarded the men
who committed the frauds. He
was the weak instrument in the
hands Of the managers of the Republican
party, which had already become corrupt,
for defying the win Of the people and
presenting the alternative Of civil strife
or Republican President. Hayes viii

life and career Of General Butler present
a series OF acts Of greed and selashnes,
upon a continuous line Of vicious energy
There is no single great act which stamps
his character and affixes the contempt ol
ages as in the case of ex.President Hayes
He was full Of ignoble and fragrant mean
ness during his entire career. Both mer
had virtues; but neither one will be re
membered for his virtues. They were
private; their faults overshadowed them
Let those who admire Hayes and Butler
praise them. We cannot.

Vegetable Boa Constrictors.

Portions of the South Pacific ocean
produce a wonderful species Of the sea-
weed called the vegetable boa constric-
tor" They are likely to be met with at
any point between the lower point Of
southern California and the Sandwich
Islands on the one side and between Chill
and AZ ralia on the other. These vine
liko strGnglers are frequently found
tightly entwSned about the body of a
dead whale, shark or porpoise, but wheth-
er they had fastened upon the bodies of
these dead sea animals before life had
become extinct or had only ventured to
attack the remains after the vital spark
had fed are conumdrums which of
course cannot be answered. Experiments
made with this curious vine and the car
cass Of a porpoise washed ashore in the
harbor at Apia tend to prove that the
vine, like that Of our common bean, will
not entwine itself around anything dead,
whether that thing be of vegetable or
animal creation.
Dr. Chadbourne, in his ANNALS Of
the Caroline Islands," says: Il have
often seen monster specimens of maori
cystis (the giant seaweed) with every
vestage of life squeezed out of them by
that ocean demon. the constructor vine,
which is itself a species of seaweed.
Macricysistis often grows to be from
90 to 80 inches in diameter and 500 to
1000 feet in length, while the constructor
vine seldom exceeds 100 feet in length
and is never larger in diameter than a
pound and half salmon can. It is the
squeeze snake Of the ocean, however,

NEWSPAPER OPINION.
Road-BuiIdIne.

Boston Advertiser.
The "State Road Convention" held at
Baltimore, Nd, for the purpose Of form
ing league of citizens for the improve
ment Of the roads of that Commonwealth,
has already attracted comment. and may
serve TO awaken similar movements in
other states. There Is evidently strong
public sentiment in Maryland in favor OF
good roads, and that sentiment, If effec-
tual I'm carrying out its aims, must
surely result in the advancement
Of the prosperity of that section. The
capabilities of Maryland in the direction
of supplying Eastern markets with many
commodi les are by no means fully
developed, and it il TO be inferred from
the addresses which were made at the
recent convention that the con
dition of Maryland's roads has
been, to some extent at least,
responsible for the failure to take
advantage of existing resources. If the
proposed effort towards the construction
Of better highways, therefore, should be
carried out comprehensively and on a
proper scale, 1t is to be expected that
many Industries Of the state will profit
by the reform, aud that trade will be
improved in the sections which are com
paratively distant from the railroad lines
Of that state. The plan of the Maryland
League is a very logical and sensible
one. The different leagues of the state
are TO be merged into a general state
organization. Minor leagues are then to
be formed one for each county, tosuper
wise the work of agitation in favor Of
better roads and to distribute campaign
literature, in the interests Of the work.
among the local branches By such a
thorough system Of organization it Is
believed that within short time
the public demand for good roads
will be so strengthened AID
reinforced that in course Of time the sen
timent will prove irresistible As to the
means by which the road improvement
can be secured It is proposed that bonds
be issued, on a state and county guar

being devoted TO systematic work upon
the country roads, so that eventually the
state will have an admirable system Of

As is well known, the prospect of the
increase of the internal revenue tax has
produced agreat deal Of excitement in the
whiskey market Those engaged in The
trade are not agreed as to what they
would like TO see done. Many of the
manufacturers and dealers are eager that
the tax should be increased while Others
would greatly prefer TO have It remain
as Il Is at present A similar state Of
things exists among those engaged In the
tobacco trade Speculation is becoming

Hence the great anxiety Of many TO OBJ

ruined by the reduction of the price. II
Is not possible, perhaps, TO advance
rates without putting money in
somebody's pocket. but it is
possible so TO regulate the
time and manner Of making the change
that the consumer may be protected, in
a great measure, from the necessity Of
paying tribute TO spectators. The
whole question of revising our system Of
taxation must. however, be considered
together. When a new tariff bill is
framed an estimate Of the amount of
revenue which it will yield must be
obtained from other sources. If It shall
be deemed necessary and advisable to
increase the tax on whiskey or tobacco,
It should be done in such a way as will
impose the least possible burden upon
legitimate business, and put as little
money as possible into the pockets of
