SOME newspapers. with the view Of
securing subscribers, are offering to
pay a certain sum of money to the
estate Of any patron who may die
during the course of his subscription.
Wouldn't it be better to offer a
premium on living rather than on
dying? A defunct subscriber can
surely be of no pecuniary value to any
of our esteemed or loathsome con-
tempOrarieS.

The sheriff caught his trail and chased
him into cypress swamp. There the

The mill owner cannot take an unbiased

as he enormously thinks, too deeply in

but that which, as he thinks, involves his
private, personal, selfish interests. He
reads history, he studies political econ
omy, he looks out upon the trade
and commerce of the world
from behind the credit column Of the
profit and loss account of his private
ledger. He holds the idea, prompted
by facts subject to that unwhole-
some influence, that he and the United
States cannot compete with the world in
industries, many Of which we started and
in all Of which we have had an equal
chance with inferior countries and less
intelligent peoples
That idea does not come fairly. It
springs from the mind Of a man whose
ideas Of history and political economy
are suggested by his own ledger. He
would not be accepted as a competent
juror in fenoe-line dispute between
his neighbors
He mas but one idea Of trade-that
which old Adam Smith characterized and

not accept the facts Of civilization. He oc-

they want more currency.

Miss Annie Pixley. who, according to
the above dispatch, is dead in L'ndon, is

Miss Pixley determined TO leave the Cal

the Rocky Mountains. She was edu-
Gated in a convent in Portland, Ore.
Five years ago, Miss Pixley, the con
vent educated girl, thus spoke on the
subject of 1.-THE Stage, and her advice
will be found more interesting, as,un-
fortunately, she hasquit the stage life
for ever
81 don't think l would advise girl to
GO on the stage The only reason for
not doing so is the hardships she must
go through to get position. The per-
centage of failures is so much larger than
that Of successes. Why, leaving out the
Modjeskas and the Clara Morrises, you
can count on your fingers the ambitious
young girls who have become successful
stars.
"The temptations of the stage. Well,
they are not so great that a girl with the
qualities for success cannot resist them
The rules of theatres nowadays are so
strict that girl who obeys them has no
difficulty in going right. She must take
care Of her health and she must study
or she will not succeed, and If she does
both she has no time to go wrong, no
time for midnight suppers or much com
pany. She must have sense enough to
know that the compliments and atten-
tions Of admirers are not always well
meant. There is, indeed. very little vice
on the stage Oh, have known so many
beautiful lives on the stage.
"Of course, no longer need to act.
Why do act2 Well, why does Mr.
Jefferson2 Why does Lotta9 Because l
don't see how l could live now aud not

and the applause and ALWAYS will. But
the SCATTERING of domestic joys, the sac
ri6ce of social pleasures. they must be
taken into consideration. And l have
no time for shopping. That is indeed a
sacrifice.
This play of mine, ''The Deacon's
Daughter" influences so many girls
They write to me that their case is just
like Ruth Homewebb's They want to
act, but their parents will not hear of it
aud they ask me what they shall do.
They say that If they should succeed
their parents, like the deacon and his wife,
would change their views. Well don't
think so. The deacon Is only a character
in play l know that / never would
have gone on the stage If my father. had

Tux defeat Of Maynard in New York
by a majority Of 10000 is a severe re
hinder. but not a defeat for the Demo
cratic party. One Of the chief reasons
for the existence Of the Democratic party
is its protestlagainst and condemnation
Of the corrupt methods Of the Republican
party There was no other reason for
the general revolt Of the people against
the Republican party except its corrupt
methods That party was originally a
party Of mo al ideas and great purposes.
During the reconstruction era. and
after stealing the Presidency, st
became the party Of base purposes and
the most ignoble and dangerous prae-
tees. The Democratic party cannot, it
must not, attempt to csrry states OF
cities by frauds, even by those which
the Republicans may have practiced
successfully. The people have revolted
against those things. Those practice.
have had their day Because many o.
the people winked at them in the part,
which claims to have saved the Union
is no reason why they should be per
mitted to a small section Of the Demo.
cratic party now. That 90, 600 majorlt,
is q reminder that we must have fai

SO SOON as the Mckinley enthusiasm
cools little Mr.. Harrison or Mr.. Reed
will give out" few items concerning
Major McKinley's silver record. He has
made remarkably positive assertions on
both sides Of the question. He has been
for aud against silver with the same
rapidity with which foolish woman can
declare for and against the man she
loves. But men who will forgive
pretty woman for any and all mental
contortions will not expect, they will
not permit, indeed man to occupy
more than two dramatically opposite
positions within two years. McKinley's
boom is surely premature But It has a
large and brilliantly colored blossom on It
now.
