From every point of view, whether as a
matter Of policy Or principle; OF !egisla-
tive economy Of time, or of sound party
politics, deadlock is unjustihable, wan
ton and utterly unworthy OF support. If it
is forced by the minority refusing 10 stand
by the majority rule the responsibility for
its possible. If not probable, unfortunate
consequences will rest with this factious
minority that, in the spirit of stif-necked
school boys, says to the majority. "Since
we can. whip you We will make faces at
your sister" The motto is good enough
craftsmanship for school boys, but is it
the kind OF craftsmanship that POUNDS,
nourishes and maintains the everyday
life, health and working strength OF a po-
liticai party?
In the words OF Congressman Wilson:
Mex. to correct principles party must have
organisation. Organization means that men,
bers must work together 10 succeed. The ma
tority must rule. Discord means ultimate de-
s.ruction.

Rats Are Great Travellers.

Rats do not, as one would suppose, re-
main on the ship. but get off at various
ports, and after remaining a while ship
on some other vessel for another voyage.
The water rats or wharf rats are great
travellers and make frequent voyages
around the lakes and even around
the world-the latter as l discovered
while engaged in West India service.
There are here now rats from almost
every part Of the globe. Why. saw
four colossal Jameica rats. with their
white bellies, skipping about in the moon
light a few weeks ago, and only yester-
day killed two Indian male rats not
200 feet from where we We're standing.
Rats are great climbers when they
find II necessary TO be so. Jrcn one Of
my voyages not long ago we IL / "a long
spell of warm weather. and there was
no water in the hold which tine small
army of rats on board could get at One
night We put some water up at the cross
trees and waited for the result Well
the rats just swarmed up the ratGus-
and went for the water. We killed as
many of them as we could as they came
down. and some Of them jumped over
board and were drowned. But we could
not kill them all, and few made the
entire voyage with us.-Interview in

Collecting Cancelled STAMPS,

What j apparently more useless than
Cancelled postage stamps? And vet there
is a stone on Michigan avenue where
they seem to be III demand. One of the
windows is entirely heaped up with
present day United States stamps. most
ly of the cent denomination. There
must be thousands of them. and the OBJ
server can only wonder What in the
world can be their value. They cannot
possess any particular interest to the
stamp collector, for they are neither
Tare nor valuable. To the ordinary per-
son the Cancelled , cent postage stamp
seems a worthless thing indeed. Prices
paid for such stamps. however. are 10
cents per 1000, 81 per 10000, and Sl2
per 100. 600. Many an industrious lad
will probably be moved by this offer las
the appearance Of the window indeed
testifies), and yet the immense labor of
collecting 100000 stamps can be appre-
ciated.
Yet during the Centennial stamps
were bought in the same manner, and
reaping handsome profit, for the Cen
tennial postage stamp has increased Won
derfully in value in Cancelled condi-
ton during the last few years. AS time
goes on stamps increase greatly in value,
especially stamps issued for one year
only on a special occasion like the Cen
tennial or fair. To show how valuable
a stamp may become, the writer of this
may mention the fact that eight years
ago he purchased a first issue English
envelope stamp IN London for $3.50, and
it was at that time worth a great deal
more in this country. Now il has prob
ably increased still more.-Detrmt Free
