The Alexandra Baking Powder Is
the Best and Cheapest.

For more than five years this
Baking Powder has been In use IN
this market. Some 200 900 cans have
been sent out with request that 1t II
did not give satisfaction they should
be returned, and none ever came
back This is good evidence that
they gave general satisfaction.
The retail price of the Alexandra
baking powder $50 cents pound
The other best standard brands are 80
cents pr pound, and it takes double
the quantity it does of the Alexandra
baking powder, which makes it cost
tour times as much.
There are other baking powders
sold here as low as Is cents per ID,
but, like the high priced powders, it
takes two teaspoontuls to each quart
of -four. The Alexandra requires only
one, and that makes % cents worth
of it 90 as far as 80 ceuts of the So
called cheap powders.

A STUDY IN PENSIONS.

The pension appropriation bill has
been reported to the house from the
committee. 1t carries S166. 400, 900. 1t is
the heaviest appropriation bill ever
presented to congress. The very nagnl-
tude of the sum prevents the mind from
comprehending it. We can only grasp
it by the per capita and comparative
methods. 1t will repay such a study
that every one may comprehend the ex-
nation; a generosity which is grossly
abused.
The average wealth of the people of
the nation, according to the census, is Il
little less than $1,000. The bill means
the absorption, then, of the entire aver
age wealth of 165,400 citizens in one
year. The average of wages paid in
this country is under 500. 1t will alb
sorb the average earnings of 332, 800
men to pay this bill. That is. 332. 800
men will have to work one year to pay
the pensions given to the soldiers of the
late war. Again, the appropriation
means tax averaging $3.50 for each
The families of the nation average five
persons to each. The pensions make an
average tax of sl3 per family.
The total taxation of the state of Min
nesota for 1891, for all purposes, state,
school, county and local, was Sl3, ,6700 00o.
The pension bill calls for twelve times
the entire cost of administering all the
affairs of this state. The average cost
of maintaining the government OF the
United States for fifteen years, from
1879 to 1898, including all expenses ex-
cept pensions and interest, was $3.50 per
capita. The pensions alone for one
year now exceed that average by four
cents. The assessed valuation Of all
the personal property of the state for
1891 was S110.S41, 900. 1t would take all
this and over S55,oo0,0O0 more to pay
this pension bill. Thus by comparison
do we get some conception of what our
pensions cost. Surely revision, eXcision
aud reduction are demanded.

THE sUGAIl COATING.

The statement that the treaty with
the Hawaiian PROFESSIONALS contained a
stipulation that our sugar bounty law is
not to apply to the islands hnds no sup
port in the treaty. 1t contains no such
provision. On the contrary, it is appar-
ent that the SPRECKELS interests have
secured in the treaty footing for
claim for the bounty Oh the sugar crop
of the present year at least, even if the
Fifty-third congress repeal the act.
The first section Of the treaty provides
tor the cession absolutely of the islands.
and that as soon as the ratifcaLions are
exchanged leach and every part thereof
shall become and be an integral part
of the United States" The sugar
bounty clause of the MCKINLEY act
provides for the payment of bounty of
two cents pound to the producer Of
sugar made from cane ''grown within
the United States" The treaty makes
the islands part of this country. The
claim will be made, and with reason,
that the cane from which the sugar of
the islands is made was grown in tine
United States. Claims on less substan-
tial grounds than this occupies ha We
been paid by this country, and SPRECK-
ELS company know how to present and
push claims before legislative bodies.
Just show much there is in it'' for the
commercial company which is back of
this scheme, can be estimated by show
ing what they have lost by the Nc
KINLEY act, which took from the islands
the benefit of the former treaty. The
treasury reports show that the imports
from the islands, almost wholly OF
sugar. decreased in value in 1891, as
compared with 1890, s4,29S, ,O26. and in
1892, as compared with 1891, the de-
crease was s5,S19,715. The estimated
yield of the islands is about 350,00O,OCC
pounds of sugar, and the bounty would
be s7,OOO,OOO. This is the sugar that the
treaty is coated with.

LAKEWOOD, N. j., Feb. 1S.-Mr. Car
Isle passed the day with Mr.. Cleveland
at the ''little white house" and left for
Washington on the $50 train. Mr. Car
Isle before leaving said that Mr.. Cleve-
land had not selected his private
secretary as yet, but declined to say
anything about the attorney gen.
eral or the secretaryship Of
the navy. In regard 10 silver legisla
ton M. Carlisle said that he did not
think the silver act would be repealed
at this session, aud. as there is strong
sentiment against all extra session of
congress for action on silver. he did not
think that an extra session of congress
will be called unless it is absolutely
necessary.
New YORK, Feb. 1S.-The Washing

BE LOGICAL OR QUIT.

Any one who gives the subject little
thought realizes that all the duty gov
ernment has to perform relative to the
coin money of Its people is to select
such metals for coinage as have, by uni
versal consent an intrinsic value, and
which are of sufficient rarity to give
substantial stability to their values.
This is essential to give the coinage its
greater utility as measure Of values.
If it select two or more metals of un-
equal value its other duty is to as
certain their relative values as estab-
lished by the commerce of the nation
and announce it by enactment. If from
any cause or any combination of causes
the commercial value of one Of the met
ais changes, either by becoming rela-
lively dearer or cheaper, the duty is to
readjust the ratios to meet the changed
conditions. 1t is not the duty OF
government to attempt to give value
to either or any coinage metal which it
has not in commerce. This is because
it is never the duty of governments to
attempt the impossible. Governments
have tried it repeatedly; ours is trying
it now, and is but adding one more to
the list of failures.
All this is elementary, but the preVa-
lence of the silver craze and the number
smitten with it make it necessary to go
back to fundamentals. In a blind,
illogical sort of Way the silYerites recog-

PARKHURsTs CRUSADE.

The finding guilty and sentencing to
the penitentiary for two years Of
CHARLES w. GARDNER, chief detective
of DR.. PARKHURST'S society, must be
humilla.ing to this divine who has un
dertaken the task of establishing a
heaven on earth. GARDENERS crime
was attempting to eXtort money from
LILLE CLIFTON, the keeper of bagn-
10. While it is quite probable that,
had the detective been engaged in the
service of the city, he would at the most
only have been discharged from the
force. the fact still remains to besmireh
the society that the detective was guilty
of the offenSe. DR.. PARKHURsT has un-
dertaken an impossible task, and the
sooner he abandonS it the better for re-
spectacle people. 1t is not possible to
make every man good, and this instance
shows that the effort to do SO may do
much harm to the work among possi-
biIities. The field III which moral and
religious workers can work with profit
has limit, and when these people step
outside the enclosure they do their
cause positive harm. People who
cannot be saved by teaching. example
and prayer, cannot be saved by the
methods of this society. By its methods
the cause of good is made a laughing
stock. and many who might be leo into
the right way stay out to avoid being
the subjects Of ridicule. The brothels
of New York can never be driven out
by these means any more than the in
mates can be reformed. DR.. PARK
HURST, if he has any knowledge of
life, knows that an abandoned woman
cannot be reformed; no more can an
abandoned man. Some maintain that
the latter can be, and in rare cases they
have been: but, admitting that some of
them can be, since some of them and
the abandoned women are outside the
pale of redemption. the fact remains
that the work of the society cannot ac-
complish the complete reformation of
mankind. and that there is a limit to
the field of operation. 1t seems clear
that reform workers should confne
themselves to possibilities, and adopt
methods which are not repulSive to the
abandoned. The sentiment which
brought about the conviction and SEN
tence Of the detective does not neces-
sarily arise from a desire to promote
the interests of brothels; it is quite as
likely to have arisen from the unpopu-
larity of the methods of the society
methods made unpopular by their ap-
peal to the sense of ridicule of the Or
dinary man.

NEARING DEATHS DOOR
The Venerable Archbishop kcno
rick's Illness Becoming More
Than Serious.
Affairs of the ST. Louis Diocese
y Arc Rapidly Falling
Behind.

ST. LOUIS, Feb. 1S.-The Illness OF
Archbishop Peter Richard Kenrick, of
this Catholic diocese. is becoming more
than serious. He is confined to his bed
and for the major part of the time his
mind, it is said, wanders. No one
is allowed TO see him, nor, Of
course, does he transact any busl-
ness. His vicar general, Very Rev.
p. P. Brady, is also i'll, and the affairs
of the diocese are rapidly falling he
hind. 1t is generally admitted, buL with
much regret by the Catholic clergy OF
the city, that The demise of Archbishop
Kenrick would not be unexpected TO
them at any time. In this connec-
ton there may be some significance
to the fact that Archbishop
p. J. Ryan. of Philadelphia, former
coadiutor of Kenrick, will be IN St.Louis
within few days, and the report is
given out that he has received instruc-
tions from Mgr. Satolli to look after th @
affairs Of the diocese pending either the
recovery of the archbishop or
the qualification of his successor.
The delay in the appointment
of coadjutor is due to the failure to
send to Rome the choice of the priests,
as we'll as that of the archbishopS, cauS-
ing delay in returning back to this
country, and its consequent effect is
that the as Baltimore decrees have not
been promulgated in this diocese the
priests have no legal right TO offer sug-
geStions regarding the appointment.

nize this. They insist that gold has
been approaching in value for years.
while silver has remained stationary. If
this is the fact, then the logical and only
sound method is to determine itas fact
and readjust the ratios, not by raising
the silver to the level Of gold, but by pull
ing gold down to the silver plane. Ii
gold has so enhanced in value as to
make, say Is grains the equivalent i'll
value of 371.25 grains of silver, so
decree it. Make Is grains the guam
tity of gold in a dollar. That will
pull gold back where they say it be-
longs. Senator MILLS, who at one time
was infected slightly with the craze,
perceived that this course was the only
logical one to take if the claims of the
Silverites as to which metal had really
changed in value were sound. lie adj
vocated the reduction of the number CT
grains in the gold dollar to number
which would equal the market value of
the silver dollar. 1t was the rejection
of his suggestion by the BLANDs and
STEWARDS that made him suspect their
sincerity and dissolve his connection
with them. If they were honest as well
as logical, they would have followed
MILLS. II their purpose was, either
from selfish interests or halluclnation,
to force up the price of silver and make
it keep company with gold, they would
pursue the course they are OIL. That
they did not follow MILLS forces the
conclusion that they are neither hon
est nor logical.
