BLOWING OFF.

There is nothing more familiar in life
than this business OF blowing of"
Nature presents it everywhere and con
stantly outside of humanity. What are
volcanoes? What are geysersl What are
thunder-storms? Are they not natures
methods of blowing off? Relieving her
pent up heat. and inward disturbances
What might happen If the earth did not
blow off in that way? And when we I'M
dertake TO humble her forces. steam cleo
tricity and the like, IL we don't provide
for safety valve, a ready blowing of of
superfiuous power we face destruction.
Some historians and political economists
think that wars and commissions are just
this same sort. and that humanity, like
the phyioal world, must blow off from
time to time, merely to equalize things.
To own these things as facts helps us
10 be patient, and learn how to deal with
them. To know the worst. oft cures the
worst. The knowledge Of meteorology,
how gusts come and when they are com
| ing, has saved many valuable lives and
millions OF property.
1t is not little strange that while we
are so familiar with these things In the
| physical world, we do so very largely
| forget them and ignore them in dealing
| with one another. Our dear old friend
job who was such an "all around" man,
/ asked his friends, please TO let him blow
off, but they wouldn't. wilt thou re-

most valuable lesson Of the necessity Of
allowing a brother to blow of. We may
smile as we please at it. but this Thing Of

take not heed TO every word that is

fences, are words of profound wisdom.
Blowing on comes OF superhuous steam
and extra power or heat. II is not rea-
son: Il is not design; II is not sense 1t Is
only natures effort at relief; and the way
to deal with 1t Is to set out OF the way,
or, by our own GOODNESS. to temper its
heat; by our kindness. to soften its bitter
ness; or by our liberality, let 1t spend its
force on the air And IN these cases the
curative and conservative power OF nature
Is wonderfully manifested. The storm IS
followed by a cain.

is 1T DUE TO CHEAP NECEssARIEs

The following item comes from Wall
street:
Experts in bonds say that the demand
for flrst-class issues has fallen on ma
terially, mainly because investors are
disguised with the non-acion OF the
Senate"
When such facts as these stare one In
the face, turn where he will it makes him
tired to hear people who ought TO know
better denying that the palsy which has
slrtad over the land comes from the
undermining of confidence that the fifty
cent silver dollar has caused. We would
like to hear Major Daniel explain how
the gold that came TO America In August,
which New York banks borrowed or
bought in Europe or that gradual fall
In prices which the Improvements In the
methods Of production and distribution
brought about In the last twenty years,
could make investors timid about buying
frst-class railroad securities.
A strong per contra OF this fact was
made In yesterdays publication OF r. G.
Dun e. Co.'S weekly review Of trade.
They stated that money in New York
was abundant for can loans and that the
banks Of New York had received, within
ten weeks, sSS,OOO,OOO from the Interior
A casual observer would think these two
statements evidence Of reviving bust
ness, but they are sure evidences Of just
the reverse. Legitimate business does not
borrow money on call 1t must have time
for its loans and definite understanding
respecting the period when payment is
TO be made. Call loans are made to
spectators and gamblers. Hence II was
perfectly natural that Dun should have
added that speculation IN stocks and pro-
ducts had received an immense stimulus,
which, he said, would have expanded even
more, but for continued embarrassment OF
industries.
Accommodations OF money In Yew York
are the surest possible evidence OF dis
aster and distress in the rest OF the coun-
try. Business IS done by borrowing money,
| and. when money collects at the money
| centre, It means that business IN the
country at large is making no demand
for II and therefore that no business is
being done. It is vain to point out as the
counterpoise Of this that money is loan
ing in New York on call at very low
rates OF interest II is loaned 10 specula-
tors and gamblers alone. These people
| produce nothing. Their business IL TO bet
| on the ups and downs OF life. II is Of
no consequence 10 them whether wheat
is being destroyed by rust or the popu-
lation Is decimated by cholera They
trade on the misfortunes OF men as will
| lingly as on their prosperity. We are not
preaching a crusade against them-they
have their useful place In life. We are
only pointing out the fact. The situation
is as bad as 1t can be, and it has not
come. as Major Daniel thinks. from that
blessed fall in the prices Of what we have
to buy that all mankind is grateful for

AN IMPORTANT CONSTITUTIONAL
QUESTION.

The Washington correspondent Of the
New York Herald writes his paper that
o cause has just been placed upon the
Docket Of the Supreme Court of the
United States which raises the aues-
ton whether Congress, in charterin5
bridge company to build a bridge across
the Hudson river at New York, can con-
fer upon 1t authority to condemn the
land OF private citizens TO secure sites
on either side Of the river for the ter
mini OF the bridge. 1t seems that the
company actually condemned site upon
the New Jersey side, aud that, upon the
question being raised in the proceedings
for condemnation. whether Congress could
constitutlonally confer the power. the
lower court held that II could, and IT
Is to reverse this ruling that the appeal
Is taken to the Supreme Court Of the
United States. The case mis- the mind
OF the correspondent with alarm, and
ne thus expresses his views OF It:
"The question is one OF such far
reaching consequence that Il ought TO
gument II Congress. under the Consu-
tuition. which confers upon IL the power
10 regulate commerce. may grant to pri-
yate corporations the right of exereis-
Ing the power Of eminent domain with
in a State. without the consent or au-
thority OF that state. those desiring
acts OF incorporation will not trouble
themselves TO make application for State
LEGISLATION, and Congress will simply be
overwhelmed with applications for IN
corporation OF every conceivable project
which may bear any relation 10 COM
merce, Interstate or otherwise.

Court As undoubtedly sought by the
North River Bridge Company for the
purpose OK establishing judicial pre-
cedent. and should they succeed in OH
tanning an afirmance Of the Judgment
OF the Circuit Court they VIII be armed
with the authority 70 enter the city OF
State OF New York as well as the State
OF New Jersey, and as there are no limi-
tations IN the act which created the
corporation, but on the contrary they are
given the power, II such power can be
given by Congress. 10 enter upon, and
take by condemnation. any land which
they may allege they require for the
purposes OF their corporation. there is
therefore, nothing 10 prevent them IRON
taking any property they may desire.
The importance Of the case TO New
York and its interests canpot be over
stated. and II Ia suggested that II should
not be permitted 10 be submitted 10 the
court for It's determination without ths
city authorities seeking 20 intervene SC
far as 70 have the case thoroughly ant
fully presented TO the court
This case seems 20 have slipped aionf
