Cleveland's tariff for revenue
does not seem to pan out the rev.
snue, judging from the issue Of
100000 bonds in ten months for
making up the deficiencies OF said
revenue. 1t is no wonder that the
enquiry is so prevalent, "Where
are we at?" If a tariff for revenue
can get away with the surplus at
4hat gait, what may not be ex-
pected when the country gets
down to a freetrade basis?
If anything justities violence
and an arbitrary resort to force il
is such a case as that presented by
those West Virginia railway EN-
5pIoyes, who without pay for three
months are literally starving. l
does seem strange that in a Coun
try like this, where humanity i
supposed to be at least in the as
cendant and public opinion a rea
force among men, and a condition
OF affairs is submitted. A govern

The tone Of the Uvaide News in
commenting upon the result Of the
Eleventh district does not convey
the impression that the News is
very iubilant over Cranes victory,
and there is rather broad intima-
ton that there must have been
fraud in some of the lower Rio
Grande counties. 1t do look sus-
picious to see a county return a
majority than it has votes all told,

beneath comment along the border

II that Indian Territory is with
out the jurisdiction Of the United
States insomuch that the armed
forces of the Nation cannot enter
upon her territory to put down
the armed band Of desperadoes
who terrorize it, then it is in order
for some new departure to be TAX
en-. Arkansas and Texas are kept
in continued state Of alarm on
account of the proximity Of those
lawless bands, and if national au-
thority will or cannot interpose it
might be we'll to call upon volun-
teers from both Of these states to
go in and clean out that nest of
land pirates. II once the word was
given it would only take Texas
about one dash across country tc
clean it out and wind up its devil

ment for the people is a miserable
failure, under which the wages OF
men are withheld for months, by
large corporations, and the poor
men cheated out OF the very means
of subsistence. Affairs of this
kind emphasize the need OF some
direct legislation for the benefit of
working men, and the guardian
ship of their rights by those who in
their inhumanity keep back the
wages Of the poorly paid at best,
and profit by the fraud. The po-
Iitical party that longer neglects
such legislation is paving the way
or its own rejection at the hand S
OF the people.
The one lone industry OF this
country that yields not its prestige
either to a Democratic defeat or
Republican victory is the mail,
bank and train robbery. The crop
grows like a midsummer weed
around a water tank and the re-
turns show that the yield is about
as profitable. 1t will soon be in Or
der for the United States to insure
it's mails and the express matter of
the country a safe transit through
the Indian Territory and some OF
the adjacent sections. If there is
no more security to life and prop
erty in this country than is DEM
onstrated by these hold ups it is
time for Uncle Sam to sell out and
turn over the defences of the carry
ing trade to more competent hands.

The Compliment Was Justified.

The other day man of gentlemnnl,
appearance called at Il house in n well
known suburb of provincial town
In answer to his knock the housemait
came to the door.
SIS Mr.. P in?" said the gentle
man.
"He's just gone out, sir"
'Is Mrs. p at home?"
"No, sir; she went out with mas
ter.
'Dear me, how unfortunate
wanted particularly to see one of them.
Can leave note?"
"Oh, yes, sir. Come in, please, y
replied the girl, ushering tho visitor
into the dining room. But, instead
of leaving him alone, she rang for an
other servant, whom she desired to
bring writing materials
The gentleman wrote his note, in
closed it in an envelope, addressed it,
and left it on the table.
This being done, he departed with
profusion of thanks to the maid,
who escorted him to the door.
On returning home, Mr.. P found
the note awaiting him. 1t ran thus
"Your servant is no fool !"
This compliment was fully justified
by paragraph in the next day
paper, giving an account of the
plunder of neighboring mansion by
a similar visitor.

fence. Sudden y the quail, which
had been following up my signals,
flew on the fence just a little way from
me. / looked at it and the expression n
on its face was too funny for anything.
1t had been expecting a good, rattling
fight, and instead of finding an enemy,
had come upon me. was certain
from its look of disgust that it uttered
mentally string of quail profanity.

Catering co woman's Vanity.

A fouriSbing establishment In New
York derives most of its income from
Letting every, instead Of selling 1t
uu right, to women who cannot
afford to buy. The business Is per
fectly legitimate one. Only a fair
amount of interest is charged for the
u 'e OF the goods and nothing is ever
attempted in the way Of deceivinQ
customers as to TIE actual value OF
the jewelry they hire. You can 90 to
this store and get a watch set with
turquoise, to wear on the lapel OF
your new electric blue gown, and you
can keep the watch as long as you
p'else by paying the rate OF interest
agreed upon when you take possession
OF it. OF course you must pay a de
pDsit amounting to the full value o
the turquoise bauble before you tak'
it out o. the shop but when you "
back with 1t all the money will bt
refunded except the small sum
charg for its use, 1t is so with
diamonds, and rings. Indeed, the
whole list and category Of jewelry
III ght be included. On the night OF
a lar-e ball the shop will be nearly
cleared Of its rentable stock. BY the
'xt day noon everything is returned,
and the jewelry, newly polished and
glittering as ever, are back In theil

kOwnee, a Newly Found Grain.

A traveller in the Himalayan noun

natives of that country cultivate a
grain hitherto unknown in civilized
agricultural operations, which has
something the look of wheat but has
very much longer ears, and which has
peculiar inward curve. The shiny,
brown grain, unlike wheat, is, on the
other hand, much smaller than whent
grains should be for SO large IN ear
But the interest is that cereal of thi,
character should yield such heavy
crops in so high an altitude, where tho
seasons are necessarily short and the
temperature low. The natives call
the grain kownee. Chicago Herald.
