and ended amid universal contempt. Il
received only a half-hesrted and per-
functory support from the republican or
ganization; it Was recognized by the
democratic party only as de
facto administration; In foreign
countries il was regarded as a
usurping governments. Nobody envied
Mr.. HAYES his stolen Office. The idea of
renominating him was never preached by
anybody; and at the end Of his term he
relapsed into obscurity. His name has
rarely appeared in the newspapers during
the last ten years. and the country had
well-nigh forgotten his existence until his
serious illness was reported yesterday.
Mr.. HAYES was not a bad man, but only
q weak one. He was a patriotic man, a
good soldier, a creditable governor and
congressman. and in some respects fair
president. But as a candidate for presi-
dent he was an accident, and as the only
man in our history who was ever placed
in that office by open crime, his name will
forever bear a stain.

Wool for the PeopIe.

Recently we advised the farmers Of
Indiana to Jump on some of the dsma-
gogues who profess to speak in their be-
half and kick them into perpetual silence"
There is probably no better place to begin
this great and beneficial work than with
the Indiana wool-growsrs' association.
This interesting collection of breeders of
blue-blooded rams meets once year and
passes resolutions, on behalf of the op-
pressed farmer. to the effect that the duty
on wool should be increased, or at least
not decreased. There is nothing
small about these ram-breedsrs.
They do not deal with minor af-
fairs. Their attention is drawn only
TO those great questions that affect
the lifo OF the nation. They blandly in
form as in their resolutions passed last
Friday that ito destroy the protection
afforded the great industry by repeating
the Mckinley law would be to strike
down, at one blow, one of the largest and
most rapidly growing industries of the
husDsndman, without benefit to any one
except the foreign wool-grower and the
importer of his products" Further than
this they resolve that putting wool on the
free list would be IAN act OF injustice and

CONGRESSMAN WAUGH of this state ia de-
claring that the democrats are planning a
Wholesale attack on the whole pension
system. Congressman WAUGH knows this
statement to be false. The democrats will
doubtless attempt-certninly they ought
to attempt-to purge the pension rolls of
the names of all bounty jumpers. desert
ers and fraudulent pensioners Of all
descriptions. If they fail to do this
they will fail in their duty to
their country and to all honest
veterans. OF course the pension agents.
like DUDLEY. and their attorneys and
supporters, like WAUGH. will set no the
cry of treason" and will make desper-
ate effort to secure the assistance of dem
ocratic congressman with soldier constitu-
sncies. But it will not avail. The PEN
sion roll will be made a roll of honor, and
not an honest veteran will suffer by the
change.

The trouble with the churches today. said DR..
Strong, was that they paid more attention to
the little lines which divided them than to the
end which all were striving for. They were
content to study creeds in the abstract, and the
chief cause Of the Salvation Army's success was
the fact that it combined philanthropy with
Christianity. This was the age Of combination.

practical ends. 1t must grapple with the ques-
