EVERYDAY TRAGEDIES.
Quiet. Ordinary Life Furnishes More Trag-
edies Than War or PsstIIance.


edies Than War or Pestnancc.
1.-THE tragic and the metaphysical are
in reality inseparable. Let us take q
familiar illustration writes Walter
Blackburn Harte in the New England
Magazine S'The tragedy of a Bala-
clava charge is not in the roar Of artil :
lery, the confused mass of wildly gal
Looping horses, laundering madly along,
unbridled or riderless, the cries and
clash of arms, the forms upright or
swaying in the saddle, the blare and
din, sooty clouds and the fire and smell
of gunpowder. All this makes a fine
picture; but the tragedy lies in the mind
of each individual rider, who has risked
his divinity in this hideous insanity of
war.
Too many writers seem to think that
tragedy consists solely of murders. acct
dents, suicide. flood, fire, slaughter, and
the rattle of musketry. These things
may be either the accomplishments or
the causes OF tragedy, it is true, but the
tragedy itself is invariably in the minds
Of the actors or onlookers, And there
are the tragedies of quiet, ordinary life.
There is the tragedy Of noble purposes
defeated Tragedies are taking place
every day between actors who do not
move out OF their chairs. Every doctors
Office, every lawyers sanctum, every
court of law-every house in a large
city has been at some time the scene of
a tragedy 'All houses wherein men
have lived and died are haunted houses
"A man may live life filed with
tragedy and never go to the wars or get
shipwrecled; indeed, he may never
leave his study, hishouse, or his garden.
All this is, Of course, Obvious; but one
would not imagine it to be SO fiom a
constant reading of the criticisms on
the fiction which goes behind actions
and discovers souls.

assailed 4. w. Stubs for having talked
there in reference to ''the accidental gov
ernor, and said that man who would
try to take seat in the legislature to
which he was not elected, might be de-
pended upon to do anything inappro-
pirate.
But the fact is that Ady was not at
the congress at all, nor did the dis
patches represent that he spoke there.
The righteous Advocate simply told a
plain, unvarnished lie. As to Stubs,
he never tried to take Rosenthal's seat
in the legislature; the first act of the
republican house was to seat Rosenthal
upon motion. But on the other side
there were not lacking men who were
willing to be thieves in the nonce of the
reform for which the Advocate so pal
pably lies: eleven men who were repu-
dated at the polls attempted to possess
themselves of the seats Of republi-
cans. AS one, eyed observer and a
plug prevaricator the Advocate is the
legate of its class.

They Think 1t Right to Rob.

Leavenworth Times.
When the new mortgage law was be-
fore ths house Fiat Speaker Dunsmore
declared it could not apply to contracts
already made but would give the mort
gagors q chance to go to the supreme
court, thus delaying execution three or
four years. Something similar to this
has been done by the national admins
tration, which affects to despise the pop
ulistic ideas of such fellows as Duns-
more. The new pension commissioner
made certain orders few days ago that
will cause great delays in granting PEN
sions, and the democrats claim will thus
save q great deal to the government.
This is robbery of the old soldier, as
Dunsmore's plan is Of the mortgages.
But the democratic administration looks
upon the old soldier with the same
feelings with which the populist looks
upon the man who loaned him money
to help him on in the world. They
think it is all right to rob him if way
can be found to do it.

Democracy and Internal Rev.
0nu0.

Many free trade experts have IA
vored the public with their views as
to the best means of bringing the
tariff into harmony with the Demo
cratic platform. They have esti-
mated the amount Of revenue that
will be needed, the part of it that
will be derived from all other sources
and the balance that will be left to
get from the new tariff. Not one has
succeeded in solving the problem
without providing for taxed sugar,
and in several cases taxed tea and
coffee as well. But they have all left
out of their calculations a most i'm
portant factor.
1t is the probability that under a
Democratic President the internal
revenue will fall off enormously, as in
fact it did fall off under Mr.. Cleve-
lands former administration, during
which only 1882, 991, 463.O5 was de-
rived from the internal revenue tax,
as against 1884. 087, 1869 collected
from the same source during Arthur's
administration. This was a loss of
nearly S51, 900, 900 under the Demo
cratic regime. Under Harrison the
change in the opposite direction was
even more striking. The Harrison
administration collected 1898, 349,-
9S7.7S out Of the internal revenue
tax, a gain Of more than $115, 900, 900
over the Cleveland administration,
and Of $64, 200, 900 over that of
Arthr.
It is probably true that changes in
the revenue laws account for some
part of the decrease under Cleveland,
but assuredly they do not account for
1t all. The internal revenue officials
appointed by Cleveland in the South
ern States failed to enforce the law
against Southern moonshiners. His
appointees were local Democrats who
were often in sym pathy, if not actu-
ally connected, with the operations
of the Illicit distillers. Connivance
at frauds on the government is very
natural under such circumstances
On the other hand, the internal rev.
enue officers selected by Republican
President are not likely to be inter
ested in the promotion of moonshin-
ing, but have every inducement to en-
force the law.
Mr.. Cleveland will in all probabili-
ty repeat the experience of his former
administration in this respect, with
the result that the deficit contem-
plated in the calculations of the ex-
perts will be greatly increased. But
the Democrats will meet it by little
heavier duty on sugar, tea and coffee.
To tax the breakfast table of the
Northern workingman for the benefit
Of Southern moonshiners Is quite in
keeping with the Democratic concep-
tion of governmental. Y. Press.

What 1t Would Mean.

The Reform Club experts estimate
the imports of wool manufactures
under their proposed Is per cent.
duty at 5,OO0,O0O, or more than
double the imports Of 1892. Chair
man Springer, of the Ways and Means
Committee, asserted that under the
40 per cent. duty on this line of goods
proposed in the bill which passed the
last House imports would jump to
500, 900, 900. This disagreement
among the free trade doctors Illus
trates how little the alleged tariff ex.
perts of the Democracy know about
what the effect of their measures
would be on the important interests
for which they presume to prescribe
legislation. But whether imports Of
wooden goods would jump to $780,
OOO, or stop at s75, 900, 900 it would
only mean so many millions taken
from American industries and Ameri-
can wage earners and given to Euro
peans.
