HE GETS THERE.

When SECRETARY MORTON was made
secretary of agriculture, he was but little
known to the southern press, as his home
and work had been in the west. The
GLOBE assured its readers and contem-
pOraries that a brainier or a holder man
could not have been called to the cabinet.
And in this we were not mistaken. He
has been doing some sweeping and some
reforming in the department of agricul-
ture, the result of which has been the saw
ing of much money to the government,
with still more to be saved if his recon-
mendations be adopted. He recently de-
cided TO dispense with the inspection Of
meats shipped to some foreign countries,
principally Germany and France, because
they insisted on such inspections in con-
sequence Of reports put in circulation that
American pork was infected by trichinR.
He discovered on Investigation that these
inspections cost the government $224,495
in salaries paid to inspecting officers and
$14,SG7 incidental expenses. The value
Of the meats purchased by those
tries was only $3,j77, 443, while in the
same time the meats sent to other u
tries not requiring inspection amounted
to $34, 600. In other words the gov
m paid s per cent of the total
amount of the shipments to the countries
requiring inspection and nothing IN the
$4,000, 900 sent to the countries not re-
quiring it. That was equivalent to pay
ing the meat shippers s per cent bounty
on the meat they shipped to Germany
and France.
J. STERLING MORTON is clean, and he
is honest, and he is able. THE GLOBE
rejoices over the fact that the newspapers
of the country are giving him full credit
for what he does and for what he is
doing.

THE MAN WITH TIE ELIX'R.

The New York Morning Advertiser
says "TLree midsummer fools set out
from this city one day last week to walk
to San Francisco. One Of them has a
patent Elixir which, he says, used in
small quantities, supplies the place Of
little sleep He and his companions eX-
pect to subsist on a pint or two of this
valuable fluid during their long tramp.
OF all humbugs which have afflicted
mankind-after the conversion Of base
metals into gold-there is nothing to
equal the Llixir. SANGRADo and every
charlatan from the time of ADAM has
had a few marvellous drops which would
prolong life or supply the place Of food.
SUCCI, the Italian faster, exploited Il a
few years ago, but nobody hears of his
wondrous discovery now. 1t only re-
quires about three years now to explode
a humbug.
"Despite all the remedial discoveries
of the past hundred years there is about
as much pain and disease in the world
to-day as there was in medieval times.
Human longevity has not been improved
on. The "cure-alI' of ten years ago is
dust covered on the back shelves of
the drug stores. Millions of dollars have
been spent in popularizing marvellous
remedies which had their vogue, inspired
the world with hope, and are now in
desuetude, and still poor old humanity
goes on grasping at new remedies and
caddling the patent quack. Where be
now your UNCLE JACOB TOWNSEND, who
proclaimed Coy to the world another
life saved" on every bottle of his sarsa,
parilla And where is the crude petro-
leum once sold at a dollar a bottle as an
embrocation for the cure of rheumatism?
And Gargling Oil, and Mexican Mustang
Liniment, and JAYNE's Anodyne and a
thousand pills and nostrums which our
former generation knew?
Gone! And still humanity calls for
lis new remedies every day, surrounds
them with childlike faith when they cure,
and kicks them into oblivion when their
efficacy is gone. And of all the Quacks
cherished by mankind the man with the
Elixir is the prime favOritc.'

DURING the next three years or more
the public will solicitously follow the
three expeditions that within a few
months will engage in the race for the
north pole. The one under DR.. NANsEN,
a famous Norwegian, has already started.
He is sailing with new ideas on the most
practicable methods of reaching the goal.
He believes the vessel in which he is
fitted out is one that cannot Re crushed
in a moving field of ice. He will allow
it to become thus i~mbedded, and his
theory is hat be will by this motive
power be carried slowly but surely to his
objective point. LIEUTENANT PEARY,
the most successful Of modern Arctic
explorers, who is almost ready to sail,
will, after leaving his vessel at the most
northern part Of Greenland yet reached,
travel overland to the same point of des
tination. Mr. FREDERICK G. JACKSON,
a plEcky wealthy Euglishman, who heads
the third expedition, will try to make the
northern point of Franz Josef land and
undertake 10 complete the run to the
pole with s!edges and boats which will
be carried overland. The progress of
each of these expeditions will be awaited
with hopeful interest. Even if neither
of them should attain its object of ambi-
ton the discoveries Of each will doubt
less yield important knowledge in the
domain Of geographical science.
