Especial Chicago Correspondence
The great day to which Chicago has
been so anxiously looking forward has
come and gone, and the Columbian ex-
position is now open to the world. Ont
south on the lake shore a new and
wonderful city has sprung into life in
a miraculous manner almost. and the
earth, which 50 recently was clothed
in natures mantle, now throbs with
the life and activity of mingling thou
sands of human beings from every
country under the sun. and the cease
less round of sightseeing has fairly be-
gun
Never in all her career has Chicago
seen such a day as was the 1st day of
May, 1898, and in all probability she
will never see another such. For

worlds fairs are of rare occurrence,
and Chicago may never have another,
yet should she have dozen she could
have none which would bring her more
glory and honor than does this. her
grand celebration of the discovery OF
America by Christopher Columbus.
Just now the eyes of the entire world
are upon her. and her name is upon the
tongues of all nations, and II is hardly
putting il too strong TO assert that for
the time there is no greater city on
earth.
True. the 10Th of October last the day
on which the dedication took place. was
a great day. but that was simplya fore
taste of the real grandeur that has
since been revealed. The fame of the
dedication was heralded throughout the
globe. and countless thousands have
read of the wonders witnessed on that
day. the mammoth audience, the mighty
buildings. etc. but that was only
forerunner of the great event Then
there was an air of incompleteneSS
about the whole thing. which has given
place to finished grace and beauty. and
untold features have been added. max
ing of the whole perfect picture of
wonderland.
Just about three years ago we were
in the throes of anxiety rs 10 the out
come of the vote in congress on the
worlds fair city. For time it looked
as if az would be New York. but
through Chicago energy sufficient pres
sure was brought to bear to outweigh
New York's claims and the prize became
ours.
Having gained it it seemed at first
like al elephant on our hands. but upon
a thorough sizIng-up of the project it
soon resolved itself into an undertake
ing within the range OF possibilities.
and being possible it soon became SIM
ply matter of push. and. as the whole
world knows, there is plenty of push
in Chicago.
As will doubtless be remembered
much time was lost in the selection OF a
site suitable for so large an enterprise.
The west side and the city lake front
were talked of. all of which is such
recent history il Is not necessary to give
particulars Finally Jackson park was
settled upon. and then the demand for
money arose. In the course Of few
weeks thousands of Chicagos laboring
people came to the front and subscribed
for from one to ten or twenty shares of
stock The men of wealth came
down literally and soon the nucleus
of large fund was in hand and
building operations were begun at
once. The first spring month of 1892
witnessed the breaking of ground. and
before the expiration of summer the
southern end of Jackson park had be-
come forest of upright timberS. Work
men from all parts of the country
flocked to the grounds and the White
city grew apace-
In all kinds of weather and in the
face of all kinds of opposition the work
went on. Labor troubles have from
the time the first spade was stuck into

THE SAME OLD PARTY.
Nothing as Yet Accomplished by the
BlowhArd Democracy.

Grover Cleveland has now been presi-
dent two months, but as vet nothing has
been done which would indicate the
policy of the new administration The
government goes on just as it did under
Mr.. Harrison. and, for the most part.
the work is being performed by the
same subordinate officials
Changes have been made as rapidly
as the public interest would permit.
but by no means rapid enough to suit
the throng of ofice-Seekers who are
bounding the president and members of
the cabinet. In fact. removals and APP
pointmentS have constituted the work
of the new administration so far. One
twenty-fourth of Mr.. Cleveland's term
of office has expired, and no effort is be-
ing made to carry out the pledges given
the country in the declaration of prin-
ciples promulgated at Chicago last June
and reiterated by party leaders and
press during the campaign The selec-
ton of diplomatic officers so far does
not show any change in the foreign
policy of the country. while the only
indication of the domestic policy to be
pursued is found in the declarations OF
Mr. Cleveland before he entered upon
his duties.
The demands made by radical free
trade democrats. and the pledges given.
led the voters to believe that in case of
democratic success an extra session of
congress would be at once called. and
the ''robber" tariff law enacted by the
republican party. be repealed. In fact
there were those who declared when the
ballots We're counted and Mr.. Cleveland
elected that the new congress would be
convened Immediately after Mr.. Cleve-
lands Inauguration and the tariff
laws repealed. and the financial policy
of the new administration tabliShe,l
But two months have passed by and
no extra session of congress has been
called. and none will be called Not
only do the pledges OF the last cam
paign remain unfulflled. but no action
has been taken looking to such an end.
The new senate has taken step to
indicate what it proposes TO do on the
silver question. and its position is an
tagonistic to the views held by Mr..
Cleveland. The organization of the
senate finance committee shows that
there will be split in the democratic
party on the money question. and in all
probability the president will have TO
depend on republican support to defeat
his own party.
The same antagonisms will be found
in dealing with the tariff question, and
it is safe to say that, although the gov
eminent is democratic in every depart
ment, the republican policy of protec-
ton will be maintained simply because
1t cannot be disturbed.
1t is the same old democratic party
again before the people. Aparty of OPP
position and promises, but not of action.
1t is incompetent to successfully man
age the affairs Of the country. II has
mol done so for nearly half a century,
and it cannot do so now, for it is not
the party of intelligence and progress,
but of vain boastings and stupidity At
the end of the first month of its new
power it has formed no policy, and it
will have none at the end of the first

THE FIRST TREASURY REPORT.
A Democratic Doctrine That Has Been
Proven Rank NOnSc nSe.

A Democratic Doctrine That Has Been
Proven Rank Nonsc nse.
If the democratic dogma be true.
that the exports of domestic products
are measured by the imports of foreign
goods. and that large imports neces
sarily imply large exports. the United
States during the past nine months
should have enjoyed the largest ex-
ports in the country's history. The
imports of foreign goods during the
past fall and winter have been phenOm-
email. The imports of the past ten
months exceeded theimports of the cor
responding period one year before
nearly 500. 900. 900. According to the
democratic doctrine the exports OF farm
products to pay for these imports
should have been something wonderful
and the farmers should have been in
clover For the facts in the case the
farmers are respectfully referred TO
Secretary Carlisle's first monthly re-
port
The facts regarding the exports of
farm products during the period OF phe-
nomenal imports are interesting almost
to the point Of being sensational
While the exports of breadstuffs for the
nine months ending March 81. 1892,
were valued at $233, 900, 900, the exports
for the nine months ending March 81.
1893. amounted to only Sli5. 000. 0O0-a
falling off during the period of large
imports amounting to $4,000. 900, or
nearly 30 per cent During the first
quarter of 1898 the imports were si0,-
900. 900. as against S17.OoO,OO0 for the
FIRST quarter Of 1892.
Secretary Carlisle's first trade report,
therefore, establishes the fact that the
dogma of his party regarding the bal
ance of exports and imports Is non
sense: and that the democratic argu-
ment that large importations of foreign
goods mean large exports of farm prod
ucts. is political buncombe--Minne-

CONGRESS should lose no time in
making the Wilson tariff bill law. Il
is not perfect measure, but 1t Is such
q great improvement on the Mckinley
law that it should be put into effect at
the earliest possible time, as the soon
er the period Of business stagnation
which necessarily accompanies the
change is over, the better 1t will be.
That prosperity will follow the adop-
ton of the new tariff, and that it will
be general prosperity, not the prosperi-
ty of favored classes, is as cercain rs
that day follows night. But Demo-
Gratis in Congress must remember that
this prosperity will not come until the
new law is an accomplished fact.

In the early pArt of she present CEN
tury the American flag tioated in every
part OF the civilized world; her hardy
seamen bEaved the storms Of every
ocean; England's supremacy Of the
high seas was challenged. America
with her thousands Of miles Of sea-grt
coasts, her world-famed harbors, and
the undaunted spirit other free people,
had almost the commerce Of the world
at her feet, until the accuFsed trade re-
striction, the Chinese wall OF Com
merce, has frozen the life blood that
formerly coursed through the arteries
OF trade. Like pestilence 10 has driven
the American flag from the seas, until
to-day all our carrying trade is done
upon foreign bottoms. The Republican
party endeavors to build up the mari
time commerce upon the same policy
il applied 10 the internal affairs of the
nation. In order 10 have one trans-At-
laniic liner fly the American colors the
City Of Paris is paid $50, 900 per year TO
fly the stars and stripes. 1t proposes
to replace the colors on the ocean by
subsiding ships to carry our flag and
proudly points to the fact that II the
money holds out we will have plenty
Of ships that will claim American al
legiance. They claim this Is the policy
"prosectlon"-the American plan"
II is the policy Of infamy, the pathway
Of disgrace. The period of its opera
ton will go into history as the occasion

A good story has just como out about how
one of our swell young men ate bologna fur
his Thanksgiving dinner instead Of turkey.
The young fellow had been lefA behind to
keep house while his father and mother ate
their dinner elsewhere. He possessed the
same spirit of thankfulness that prevades
the hearts, of all true citizens on that day,
and NOT being able to show ID to good ad-
vantage. he partook of several modest "bill
collectors" intermixed off and on with a
we'll known brewery composition. Toward
noon. hiH thankfulness took upon most
hilarious shape and he balanced himself
back to the FREQ lunch counter, that he
might paStako Of some of the generous
pisoss of turkey that were being served.
Several of his friends followed and gave the
bartender the wink. When his jsglets
called for turkey, the fuid-mi1er cut of sew
eral slices Of bologna and showed them to-
ward the young fellow, who by this time
looked as if ho was having bad rush Of
blood TO his eyes and nose. Tho bologna
disappeared ~ did several other slices which
were given him when he called for more
turkey. The stoSy was too good to keep
and 10 now going the rounds.

IT costs just $500 more per ton to
manufacture steel rails in the United
States than 1t costs In England. A tar
iff Of $400 a ton would shut out foreign
competition unless the price of foreign
rails be reduced, but Carnegie and his
fellows, who have made millions out
ofgovernment bounty, predict destruc-
ton of the American steel rail bust
ness. Ii would have been cheaper for
the Government to have put Carnegie

such a chance as they have had to
handicap railroad building by exorbl-
tant prices for rails.

A Great Tunnel.

DENVER, Dec. IA wonderful piece
of engineering has just been accom-
plished in the boring of the Busk-Ivan-
hoe railway tunnel under the continent
al divide of the Rocky mountains at
Haggerman Pass, Colo. The tunnel is
almost two miles long,, ,299 feet-and
is through solid gray granite. 1t took
three years and 90 days, of 24-hour days,
to bore the big hole, 10000 feet above the
sea level, through the top ridge of the
continent. The water draining from one
side of the mountain, under which it is
driven, runs to the Atlantic ocean and
from the other to the Pacific. Its con-
struction has cost 81 900, 900 and 20 hu-
man lives. The tunnel, which is on the
Colorado Midland railway, the Santa
Fs's central route to California, substi-
tutes two miles of track for y, and does
away with one of the most expensive
railway climbs in the world.
