THERE is no apparent cause for alarm
in the ranks of either the Democratic or
Republican parties that so-called
new party should spring into existence
ae the result of proposed com bina-
ton of the forces of the Farmers Alli-
ance, the Knights OF Labor and the
American Railway Union. A Chicago
paper is the authority for the statement
that such an alliance is to be made and
says that the united forces Of such an
organization would number 1900, 900
people, who have for their primary
object the formation Of q party for
independent political action AS the
popular vote for Presidential electors
in 1892 was 12,110,636, of which 1885,
325 were Populists, Prohibitionsts and
scattering votes, it would not seem
that the new party would cut much
larger figure in general affairs than
did these fifth wheels" on the political
wagon then inasmuch as the new party
would represent the greater proportion
of the Populist vote cast at that time.
The new party movement is evidently
only scheme OF the restless, new
dodge to secure notority.

AN APPEAL FOR FREE ART.

This Is practical world in which
we live and more than ever in this
country at the present time have we
become the devotees of the almighty
dollar almost to the exclusion of every
thing else. 1t is therefore like bright
oasis in q barren desert to have such
sentiment thrust upon US as on Tues
day eliminated from Senator Vest, OF
the finance com mittee, in charge OF the
proposed amendments to the tariff bill.
Mr.. Allen had moved to place a duty
OF is per cent. upon paintings and Stat
nary, and Mr.. George had intimated that
he would have to support Mr.. Aliens
amendment unless the finance commit
tee could satisfactorily explain their
reason for placing them upon the free
list. Mr. Vest. thus challenged, replied
as follows:
My reasons were that everything in the way OF
art which elevates our people, which increases
the love OF the beautiful and the refined. which
makes ns in every respect better people should
be encouraged by legislation. The Mckinley act
put duty OF only Is per cent. on these articles
we propose 10 put them on the free list No
political exigency will ever induce me to shut ont
from this country work OF literature which
gives new thought and better thought TO the peo
pie OF the United States am not worshipper OF
the esthetic. not a connoisseur in paint
Ing or In sculpture. But as an educated
man, int to be here as the representative
OF an educated people, l must say that one ten
dcncy of thisi.age is going to the extreme-and
that Ia, tendency to the exclusively practical-a
tendency to escape, il possible from all that
seems to US esthetic and beautiful and 10 conhne
ourselves to absolute physical necessities. The
greatest peoples or the old world have been those
who were practical and at the same time devoted
to painting and sculpture. And when the people
OF the United States by their legislation discrim-
mate against art in any shapc-whethcr paint
lngs' sculpture, or literary productions-the de.
cadence of the republic will commence.
Such sentiment Is not out of place in
tho halls OF Congress during such inn
portant moments as are now upon that
body. His reply Ia from stand point
higher than partisanism, OF tho essence
OF patriotism and love of higher things
In this world about us.
