MADISON. SOUTH DAKOTA, TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 2s 1898
Business taproved by Heavier Demands
for Man ufactnred Goods.

Business salproved by Heavier Demands
for Manufactured Goods.
NEW YORK, Nov. Pr. G. Dun &
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade says:
Consumption increases slowly, and all
branches of business are waiting for its
growth. The railroad earnings for the
month thus far are only 3.9 per cent less
than those of lost year, the decrease for
the last week being even smaller in
freight earnings.
Trade waits for the revival of indus
tries and the weeks returns respecting
industrial progress are rather conflict
ing. There has been a heavy sale of
cotton goods at very satisfactory prices
and the market has
Decidedly Strengthened
in consequence. Though the production
in this branch is still somewhat less than
it was year ago, the market for goods
at current prices is strong. In woolens
there is q substantial increase in demand,
notwithstanding the fact that several
mills, each having orders for 900 pieces
or more, have closed, the orders being 80
sorted as not to give them profitable EN-
ployment. But the sales of wool have
been the largest since September, 1892,
amounting at three chief markets to
S.025, 800 pounds, against 4,s13,500 for
the same week last year, and while it ID
stated that many purchases are of a
speculative character, there is evidence
that large buying by active mills is
Prompted by Increased Orders.
In the manufacture of boots and shoes
the demand employs an increasing mum
Der of factories and the orders are in
number about as usual for tEo season,
though smaller in quantity. The mar.
kets for produce have been irregular
Wheat has advanced 1c, though the re.

$500, 900 last year and exports from At
lantic points only COZ, 200 bushels against

NO INCOME TAX.
The President Said to Have Given
the Ways and Means Com
mittee q Pointer
That He Does Not Approve Making
II Part of the Tariff
Bill.
If 1t Must He Brought Into Congress
1t Should Be AZ q Separate
Bill.

ST.. PAUL, Nov. g.. The Pioneer
Press Washington special says:
1t is rumored here that President
Cleveland has conveyed to the ways and
means committee in quiet but none
the less emphatic manner his decided OBJ
lection to the income tax proposition in
any shape, and the further fact that it
will not meet with his approval. He is
particularly DESTROYS that the proposition
shall not be made a part of the tariff bill,
but that if the committee is bound to
report it, it be put in the form Of sep
arate bill, 10 it may be considered and
disposed OF as a separate issue. 1t is
hardly expected that the committee will
be able to comply with the presidents
wishes. In the first place, a majority Of
the committee is committed to the income
tax as q matter of principle; and in the
second place the tax Is needed to make

is conceded will follow the passage of
the tariff bill, with the sweeping reduc-
tions in duties which are proposed.
western democrats EAvOr HI.
The Western Democratic members of
congress who are in the city seem to re-
gard the income tax as very clever
substitute for the indirect tax of the
tariff. Congressman Hall of Minnesota
expressed himself as heartily in favor of
it. He thinks perhaps it would be better
to have the minimum 1000 instead of
$4,000, but is convinced that even at the
latter figure it will be very popular
throughout the West. His namesake,
Hall of Missouri, is well known advo-
cate of the theory. Amos Cummings, ON
the other hand, came over from New
York to inform the committee with en-
phasis that if the income tax idea is en-
acted into law it will defeat every Dem
ocratic candidate for congress in New
York state outside of the city and will
make two of the strongest city districts
doubtful. If the Republican members
of the committee oppose it solidly and
can get three Democrats to vote against
it when the bill is considered by the
whole committee, it will have to go to
the house as minority proposition If it
gets there at all Bourke Cochran and
Stevens of Massachusetts, are against it,
but IL is not known where the third
Democrat is to come from.

Senators and Representatives F1ocking to
the Capitaf.
WASHINGTON, Nov. Senator's and
members of congress have begun to re-
turn and are to be found around the ho-
tells, the capitol and all the departments.
Many of the members are making ar
Tangements for the winter and settling
their families in the hotels and residences
they have selected There is great
deal of interest manifested among the
congressman about the tariff. Other
matters of legislation are frequently dis
cussed There is now general inn
precision that little will be done before
the holidays, although the wheels of leg
islation will be going around all the
time. There are several matters pend
ing in both houses which can occupy the
time, even if the tariff bill does not come
up in the house at once. All the bills
which the house passed and sent to the
senate during the silver debate can be
considered in that body while the tariff
bill occupies the house.
The Hawaiian Matter.
There are number of members of
congresa who would very much like to
have the Hawaiian matter come up in
congress early, and there are others who
would prefer that it be handled by the
state department and not brought before
congress. It is expected that some reso-
lutions of inquiry upon this subject will
be introduced, but they can be easily held
in committee until the administration is
ready to send in such communications as
it deems advisable. There is the usual
hope expressed among the arriving mem
bers that there may be short session,
and that the important business will be
transacted at once.

SLIPPING AWHY.
They are slipping away-these sweet,
swift honrS

They are slipping away-these sweet,
swift hours.
Like leaf on the current East;
With never break in the rapid flow,
We watch them as one by one they go
Into the beautiful past.
As silent and swift al weaver's thead
Or an arrows flying gleam;
AS soft as the lan0uorous breczes hid,
That lift the willows long golden Ill,
And ripple the CLASSY stream.
As light as the breath of the thistle
down,
A 8 fond as lovers dream
As pure as the flush in tho sea shells
throat,
AS sweet as the wood birds wooipg
note,
So tender and sweet they seem.
One after another we see them pass
Down the dim lighted stair,
We hear the sound of their steady tread
In the steps of the centuries long since
dead,
As beautiful and as fair.
There are only few years left to love;
Shall we waste them in idle strife?
Shall we .rample under our ruthless feet
Those beautiful blossoms, rare and
sweet
By the dusty ways of life9
There are only a few swift years-ab, let
No envious taunts be hear1;
Make life's fair pattern of rare design,
And fill W the measure with loves
sweet wine,
But never an angry word.

A SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM.

The University of Pennsylvania
has provided a course of study for
young men who intend to make
the newspaper profession. Some
Ct our contemporaries have ridi-
culed the idea, but, like the Rich
mond State, we think, without
reason. 1t is very true that no
college can turn out fully equip
ped newspaper man. A talent tor
news is the first ssential to
journalist, as the term goes, and
education must be had in a news
paper Office. But there is no sort
of doubt that special course of
study at college would be OF inval>
liable service to the newspaper
writer. Many men have succeeded
in the field of journalism who
never rubbed their head against a
college wall, but their career
would have been easier and
brighter had they had the benefit
of a special course at school.
The fact is that parents do not,
as rule, exercise proper judgment
in fitting their boys for the battle
of life. Care should be had in the
| first instance to ascertain the taste
and the talents of the boy. This
important point determined, the
lad should then be educated with
special reference to his vocation in
life. This il admitted to be true
with reference to other professions;
then why not with reference to the
profession of journalism?
Many lad has been ruined by
being showed recklessly into some
profession tor which he had neither
love nor capacity, and many a man
with decided talent for newspaper
work has been hampered all his
life long, because be had not the
advantage Of a special course o1
study at college for his chosen
work. We commend the Univer.
sity of Pennsylvania for it's new
departure. If a lad with ''jourr
nalstic scent" be given a course in
language, in history and literature
| in political economy, stenographJ
ard the like, be will be in excellent
shape to learn practical journalism
in a newspaper office and will bt
several lengths ahead of his con
temporary who goes into the work
,. without such preparation.

THE HOUSE OF NEVER.

The house of Never is built, they say.
Just over the hills of the By-and-By
Its satcs are reached by devious way
Hidden from all but an angels eye,
1t winds about and in End out
The hills and dales to sever,
Come over the hills of the By -and-By
And you're lost in the house OF
Never.
The house of Never is filled with waits
With jlst-in-a minutes and pretty
soons,
The noise of their Wings as they beat
the gates
Comes back to the earth in the after
moons,
When shadows fly across the sky
And rush with rude endeavor
To question the hills of the BY and
By
AS they ask for the house ot
Never.
The house of Never was built with tears
And lost in the hills of the By and By
Are million hopes and a million fears
A baby's smiles and woman's cry,
The winding way seems bright to-
day,
Then darkness fails forever
For over the hills of the By and b.
Sorrow waits in the house o

Mob VS.. Law.

Many good citizens seem to
think that it was a sort OF wicked
economy for the soldiers of Roman
ike to shoot down a dozen citiz ens
on order to cave the neck of one
despicable wretch,
This is one way of looking at it,
but not the right way. 1t was not
so much the negro's life that the
soldiers were defending as it was
the law of the land. The issue was
between the law and the mob. The
mob was on the aggressive and the
law was on the defensive. The
soldiers were not acting in an in~
divldual capacity, but as the sworn
defenders of the law, and it was as
much their duty to resist the mob
as it was the duty of the soldiers of
Lee to resist the soldiers of Grant
in the late war.
1t may be that the soldiers acted
thastiiy. Ofthat we do not know,
but there is strong evidence that
the first shot was fired from the
mob. 1t is quite certain that the
mob did shoot early in the action
as result of which the mayor OF
the city was wounded in the foot.
It is also certain that the mob
made the first demonstration and
that it threatened the soldiers with
violence.
In short. the mob was attempt
ing vi ct arnis to trample the law
under foot and to overpower the
officers Of the law, and the soldiers
simply resisted the attack. as duty
required. Hal they surrendered
to the mob, they would have been
universally condemned as towards
who | ad >disgraced their uniform.
Sad, shocking, distressing was
the result, bat the lesson to be
learned is-not that soldiers must
be merciful to lawless gathering,
but that citizens must not resist

CLOSING THE WORLDS FAIR,

The Executive Committee has
acted wisely in deciding to close
the Worlds Fair October 81. This
decision will, however, be disap-
peintment to many. The great
rush has been during the past two
weeks. This is due to the fact that
there has been little let up in the
monetary stringency and thai there
is a dawning of better feeling.
Buoyed up by this idea, huns
dreds have planned to go in Octo-
Der and November. The passage
of the Repeal bill would send
thousands to Chicago. The result
will be that the month of October
will witness an unprecedented
rush.
November, however, is cold
month in Chicago. 1t would be
we'll nigh impossible to warm the
immense buildings while the exs
teriors would suffer from the
effects of he weather. The result
would be great Dissatisfaction,
though the treasury of the Fair
would be better off. The revenue
would not be sufficient to make up
the deficit, while, on the other
hand, the credit of the big show
would he greater
