The House of Never.


From the Chicago Dispatch.
The house of Never is built, they say,
just over the hills of the By-and-By.
Its gates are reached by devious way
Hidden from all but an angels eye
1t winds about and in and out
The hills and dales to sever,
Once over the hills of the By-and-By
And you're lost in the house of Never.
The house OF Never is filled with waits.
With Justin minutes and pretty -soons3
The noise of their wings, as they beat th
gates ..-.......
Comes back to earth in the afternoons.
When shadows fly across the sky
And rushes. rude endeavor
To question the hills of the By-and-By
AS they ask for the house of Never.
The house of Meier was built with tears
And lost in the hills of the By-and-By
Are million hopes and million fears,
a baby smile and woman's cry
The winding way seems bright to-day,
Then darkness falls forever,
For over the hills of the By-and BY
Sorrow waits in the house OF Never.

The Agricultural Situation.


Secretary of Agriculture Morton takes
an optimistic view of the future for land
owners and land tillers in this country.
They own all of the food-produring fields
of to-day; the government is no longer
offering millions of acres of equally good
land to homesteaders, the supply of land
is about absorbed, the demand for arabic
lands is increasing day by day; there
fore the present holder of lands has in his
possession that which will be quadrupled
in value within the next twenty-five
years.
AS to the present depressed agricultural
situation, and the prevailing prices for
farm products, the secretary says one
immediate cause is to be found in the
tariff, which compels farmers to buy in a
market whence competition is shut out,
and to sell in a market where the compe-
tition of the world is free to enter. An
other cause is to be traced back to be-
ginning in the year 1866 In that year
the government instituted its homestead
policy. Under its operations during the
last twenty-siX years the plowed area
of the United States has been about
trebled. The demand for farm products
has not increased in the same time in pro-
portion to the Increase in farming lands;
yet in addition to the increase of acreage,
farming implements have been so i'm
proved during the last twenty-five years
that one man is now able to produce re-
suits that required the labor of six men
twenty-five years ago.
The allegation that the farmers of the
United States are in worse general con-
dition than they were ten years ago is
strenuously denied by Secretary Morton.
He admits that the profits of farming
have decreased. But the explana-
ton of the cause is forthcoming Every
civilized government, in some form or
other, has been, like the United States,
giving farms to its subjects. Ali of these
foreign homestead farms have come into
competition with the American farm in
the open markets of the world. The
American farms and the foreign farms
have produced more than the world
wants The situation has been simply
one of supply and demand, in which the
supply was the greater. That is in the
American farmers selling market. When
he comes to buy he is circumscribed by a
wall of protection and forced to pay to
the manufacturer a bonus on every manu-
featured thing he uses. That is where
goes what would otherwise make up his
profits.
At the same time the general condition
of the American farmer is not worse than
it was ten years ago. On the other hand,
the agricultural classes of this country
are better and oftener fed now than ever
before. The question of money plays an
important part in making up the situa-
ton; but stripped of verbiage, the money
question resolves itself into this What
the west and south need is not more
money so much as more commodities or
! products with which to buy money"
| On the whole, Secretary Morton says
the 'deplorable condition of the farmers
| exists only with the calamity howlers,
who hope to make political capital of their
/ hOWlinCS.

The Minneapolis Tribune tells of a north
western genius who has hit upon a scheme
that viii prevent runs on a savings bank.
He has established a bank in a boat and
will cruise along the shores of Lake Koo-
tenai, transacting business for towns toe
small to have banks of their own Com
menting on the scheme, the Tribune says
"a happy thought, indeed! When de
positors take it into their heads to make
a run on the establishment the first mate
will simply cut the rope and the bank will
steam out into the middle of the lake
until the furry blows over 1t is believed
that such an institution would be able tc
float almost any kind of paper.'

The United States inspector who was
sent to Connecticut to investigate the ex-
tent of damages done to the oyster in
dustry by the late storms reports that
100000 would hardly make good the
loss to date. About three-q quarters of the
damage was done by sanding" and the
rest was due to washing" The great
est damage was on deep water beds.
Where the water was thirty to forty feet
deep over the beds the destruction was
considerably greater than where the
water was only few feet deep.

Walter ]. Chanler, the brother-in-law
of Amelie Rives-Chanler, went out to see
the sights of New York few nights ago.
He wished to write a realistic story of the
slums, hence he went to the slums for his
data. And from his appearance the next
morning he must have got all the infor-
nation he wanted. He had been drunk,
his clothes were torn and muddy, he had
been robbed and his eyes were black from
a slugging given him by some tough. The
story he will write should rival some of
his sister-in-law's productions in force of
language and warmth of sentiment.

Noah L. Farnham Post, c.. A. r., of
New York state, has been punished for
being honest and patriotic Its offense
was the adoption of resolutions in de
nunciation of fraud and extravaganza
under the pension laws. For passing
and parading these resolutions which
the commander of the division says was
''plainly for purpose hostile to the prin-
ciples of the Grand Army of the Re
public, Farnham post has been deprived
of its charter. 1t is to be understood
from this action of the governing body Of
the Grand Army of the Republic that
pension frauds and extravaganza are in
accord with the principles of that organi-
cation.

A Washington correspondent has kindly
given the American public a sample of
the small talk INDUCED in by royalty.
The Infanta EuIalie visited the treasury
department the other day. There she
was surrounded by the lady employees in
the departments and bureaus. How do
you dor was the infanta's opening
words. You are very, very good I
thank you so much. 1t is good to be here,
for you are very kind. like America. l
like the American people. I like you all
Thank you. Good-by." And then she
passed on to another group, where about
the same little speech was said, while the
group she had just left would break out,
20, isn't she just lovelyl Isn't she
sweet" etc So, apparently, it isn't very
hard to talk like a princess after all.

There is a GOODNESS between Queen
Victoria and the Princess of Wales. The
cause of the trouble is the betrothal of
the Duke Of York to the Young Princess
May. 1t seems the Princess of Wales
does not approve of the betrothal. She
thinks the facile manner in which the
Princess May transferred her, affections
from one brother to another shows want
of true womanly qualities. The Princess
of Wales is having pretty hard time of
it just now. Although she is immensely
popular with the English people, the
prince, it is said, negiects her so openly
as to cause comment.

The Common sense of It.

From the Springfield (Mass) Republican Qnd)
It is the hight of absurdity to attempt to
arouse sectional feeling over the honOrs which
the southern people are to show the body of
jefferson Davis on its removal TO Richmond
Va. If the southern people choose to honor
his memory in this way they have perfect
right to do so, and the rest of the country
need not disturb itself about it,in the least.

Rough on the Woman Politician.
From the New Orleans states Dem.

Mrs, Helen Cougar, the woman suffragist.
has filed a suit against Congressman Morse of
Massachusetts for damages on the ground
that in one of his speeches he slandered her.
The fact that woman cannot stand SANDER
is the best evidence that she has no business
in politics. SANDER is one of the main points
in the game of politics. Helen should stay at
home and darn socks, and ii she does her feel
ings will not be hurt.

The recent declaration of Senator But

The Birmingham Age-Herald says that
in the public schools of that city only
single ladies can get positions as teachers.
In the Talladega schools the preference

hard to understand why the Alabama

ton, unless they have reached the con
clusion that marriage makes a man and
spoils a woman.

The city court of Baltimore a few days
ago decided q street railway case that is
of Interest," A passenger boarded a
street car during inclemcnt weather.
His fare was collected by the conductor
and rung up on the register. The car
proceeded only short distance when the
power was cut off and the car stopped
After waiting for quite long while the
passenger asked the conductor to return
the fare, as he meant to get out and walk
This the conductor refused to do, saying
that as it had been registered he would
have to lose the amount if he returned it
to the passenger. The passenger finally
got out and walked home in the rain. A
suit for damages was instituted against
the road, and the court awarded damages
in the sum of 50. In Baltimore, there
fore, mo ride no fare" is the law.

With Malone out of politics, the Vir-

enough to be put up for governor against
the democrats this year, consequently
there will be no republican state ticket in
the field. Republican papers, however, are
advising their partisans to vote with the
populists. But even that combination
would not be strong enough to down the
democratic host of old Virginia.
