warrantforasking and expecting from the
newspaper private business assistance, as
there is for asking the merchant to give
the applicant bolt of cloth or suit of
clothing or the fittings for parlor.
Even as it is, very often when an ad-
vertisement is inserted in a journals
business columns announcing business
event, even though it may have an artis-
tic side, the expectation and solicitation
is that space will be devoted to rep
etltlon of the announcement, five times
IN excess Of the advertising space en-
pIoyed. To this there are some notable
exceptions among men and women who
realize that newspaper is a business in
stitution, and delight newspaper men by
leaving them free from solicitation to
give beyond reasonable measure.
The press has nothing with which to
reproach itself in these matters; it con-
tributes and aids as does no other public
intelligence; its back is bent to the help
ing on of all good works and the lifting
up of more of humanity than any other
agency. 1t has the right to demand that
its business side shall not be ignored and
to refuse to those who decline to recognize
that side, the consideration it shows to
those who concede that it must have ma
terial support in order to carry on its
work in public interest.

SPECIAL AGENT WEDDERBURN of the
Federal Agricultural Department has
completed report to be submitted to
Congress ia December on "Food Adulter-
ation." He finds 10 per cent. of the food
OF the people to be adulterated, and per
cent. of the adulteration to be very in
furious to health. He says there are no
liquors or drugs free from the finishing
touches of adulterators. He advises the
passage of law forbidding the trans
portation from one State to or through
another OF misbranded, poisonous or
deleterious food and drug products. Such
law, vigorously enforced and supple
mented by State laws of like character,
would result in the greatest good, and
have marked beneficial effect upon the
health of the people. The authorizations
in our food and drugs that are deleterious
he finds amounts to the enormous sum of
Sl35, 100000 paid by the people annually
for articles of consumption for support of
the body that are greatly injurious and
cause much physical suffering. He be-
lieves that adulteration of this character
is rapidly increasing, and unless stopped
will result in Affections to millions of the
people to an appalling degree. In view
Of this report, the result of the most ex-
haustive research, specific inquiry aud
analytical testing, action by Congress
should be prompt and adequate.

JUDGE COOLEY. in his address before
the National Bar Association, well says
of lynching, that "the extent to which
lawless restraint of personal liberty may
go is less important than the public senti-
ment which tolerates any invasion what
soever." Right. Apply that truth to
the recent strike-boycott period, and we
will discover that the danger to free insti-
tutions proceeded less from the lawless
than from the sentiment of communities
which made the lawlessness possible. As
Judge Cooley well says, citizens who
tolerated and aids Iawlessness sympa-
thetically takes one step in the direction

An Extensive Vote.

How much more do the managers
of the Tariff bill expect to pay for
Senator Aliens vote? A week ago
this Nebraska Populist demanded
that barbed wire for fencing be put
on the free list, and the Finance
Committee put it there. Senator
Hoar intimated at the time that
free barbed wire was to be the
price of Senator Aliens vote for
the Tariff bill. This was met bv an
energetic denial, and now 1t APP
pears that the denial had a substan-
tial basis. Free barbed wire was
not the payment for Senator. Allen S
vote. 1t was only partial pay
ment. Another installment of the
price was paid last Friday, when
Mr.. Aliens amendment placing
lumber on the free list was accept
ed by Senator Vest in behalf of the
committee. The question now
arises: How much is Senator
Aliens vote worth? 1t is a very
expensive piece of bric-a-brac as it
stands, and there is no evidence
that the second installment com
pletes the purchase. Would it not
have been cheaper to have purchas-
ed Mr.. Aliens vote outright, in
stead Of paying for it on the IN
stallment plan?

MAY THE saints have pity on a
town or city with croaker in it,
If it has two, three or half a dozen
croakers living in it, tits to be com
miserated that mach more. The
croaker comes in two forms-dead
and alive. The croaker has moss
on the north side of him, no mat
ter whether the winter be mild or
severe. The moss indicates moth
ing especially, except that he
should be removed from the COM
munity at once. The croaker al
ways views his own town from a
pesslmistic point of view. He has
no word Of praise for anyone nor
anything that tends to assist in the
progress of the community. You
tell a croaker that much is going to
be done toward booming the town
and exploiting its superior advan-
tages, and he will say: "Well, you
go ahead-advertise it, boom it.
I'd like to see you do it, with a
shrug of the shoulders. "You'll
never boom this town"
The croaker is generally too lazy
to labor under an impression. He
may have had some money in his
life, but he does not live-he SIM
ply exists. Ii he Is in business and
is asked to advertise, he says his
goods do not need advertising, and

RoSSer'S Mouth.

Gen. Rosser, who IS possibly the
most unreconstructed citizen of the
south. now that Bob Toms, of Geor-
gia, is dead, used these words IN
his speech at Richmond last We'd
nesday:
1.-The army that devoured US was
an army of Substitutes. We killed
all the substitutes, and the men
whom they presented stopped at
home and made money and now
draw pensions.
81 despise the man who gives
United States money to pensioner.
The country can't stand when it
makes one citizen support another.
| shall never vote for a congress
man who is III favor of government
pensions.
1t is not to the credit of Gen.
Rosser's audience that they ap-
plauded these sentiments, for it is
with evidence that they sympathiz-
ed with him ia this hatred of the
union veterans. So long as men of
Rosser's stamp are permitted to
vent their feelings in public, so
long will be delayed that complete
reunion which is the hearts desire
of every brave man who fought on
either side.

A Brief CateChiSm.

Do you see the man?
| do see the man.
Who is the man?
He is a Democrat.
What is a Democrat?
The unknown quantity in the
equation of the party in power.
What is it equal to?
Equal to everything if 1t gets a
chance.
Doesn't he get chance?
Not if he can be choked off.
What is this?
The trimmers won't haye it.
What are trlmmcrs?
towards, mostly.
What do they want to do?
They want to edo" the party.
Aren't they part of the party?
They think thew are the whole of
1T.
How did they get their grip?
By promises.
What kind of promises?
Chicago platform promises.
What's the Chicago platform?
A plankless platitude.
| don't quite comprehend.
Neither does anybody else.
What is plank?
Tariff reform.
Aren't they reforming it?
Yes, reforming it on IA magnif-
ed Mckinley model.
What's Mckinley?
In the platform parlance he is
the Napoleon of unconstitutionality,
fraud, and oppression.
That's the theory, is It:
Yes.
What is the condition?
He is the guide, counsellor, and
friend.
What is this thus?
They think they can pull the leg
Mckinley pulled.
Whose leg is that?
The leg of the tariff benefciaries.
Isn't the party in power in full
control?
1t controls everything except
itself.
And why not itself?
Because they are trying to run it
back wards, and it isn't built that
way.
Can't anybody steer it right?
The President might.
Who is the President?
Grover Cleveland.
Isn't he a Democrat?

besides he is located ona prominent
corner, and everybody sees his goods
as they pass. Yes, ''as they pass,
for they rarely 60 in. The croaker
never gives his neighbour or fellow
man credit for anything lie accom-
plishes.
If you go to a local merchant and
show him plan or suggest to him
an enterprise which if caGY.ied out
will be of great benefit to all con-
cerned and ask his cooperation.
and he says: "Well, who lie in this:
Go and see the other business men,
and if they go into it may do so,
too" look out for him. lie may
not be croaker, but he has dagger
ous symptoms. He is vaccia2ted,
and the probabilities are that it will
take unless something is done for
him. He needs hypodermie in
lection of "enterprise" to cure him
of the "follow your leader habit.
lie is the first to expect benefits
that accrue from the united efforts,
energy and enterprise of others, but
is the last to lend a hand. The
croaker is a pusillanlmous, insight
ficant, inconsistent encum brance.
