FRIDAY, JUNE %, 1894.

The whole country is in a cOndi-
ton of restlessness and ferment.
The people are dissatisfied and
they hardly know with what. The
whole condition may be dag
nosced as politically nervous, and
under this condition of political ir-
ritability there is no certainty FIN
the situation. Never before was
this country so deeply permeated
and generally with a profound dis
trust of all political leadership,and
the gods by whom men swear to-
day may be dethroned and dis
Carded tomorrow. The situation is
chaotic, requiring the closest study
on the part Of leaders and the rar-
est wisdom of action on the part
of those who would direct public
movements. No service of self will
be long tolerated by the people
in their present mood and the man
who would retain his place before
the people must be seen to serve
the people and not himself. The
tidal wave of public reputation
that swept out the Republican par.
ty may come again in 1896 and it
may spend it's force this campaign
The situation calls for wisdom in
council and action; the selection
of the wisest, best and purest men
as party standard bearers; the
most careful consideration of the
demands of the masses in the way
of state and national legislation; a
great TetiCence in expression OF
opinions. With these things care
fully observed the dangers will be
reduced to a minimum.
There is a quiet revolution going
on all over the country in the do
main of things political. The
masses are departing from theil
hitherto blind devotion to- party
at least to the old parties, and GU
of this will in time be born an in
dependence of all party that will
render it impossible for party lead
ers to lay their wires Independent
of the wishes of their following
confident that the endorsement
will follow. The first result of thi
change will be chaos. Then thu
spirit of a new political creation
will move upon the face Of tn

The loss to the miners alone in
the late coal strikes is placed to
date at the sum of $l0,000,00O.
This is a great loss to poor men,
and there should be some legal
way of settling the troubles be-
tween the miner and the mine
owner without this costly process.
If the miners have sunk $10,0O0,000
there is no shadow of doubt that
the mine owners have lost five
times that amount. Who pays
the freight?

Cholera epidemics are the result
of a bad water supply, in almost
every instance. Hamburg is case
in point and as soon as her water
supply was purified the disease
came under control. San Antonio
has little to fear on this account,
but her sanitary condition should
be improved.

If HOgg visited Niagara in order
to take lessons in tumbling his

platform breaks down.

neither silver speculations nor any

Importance to him as this new and all

sprung up in his heart was not the sud

rather the wild, fierce passion of man
of strong will and inperious temper.
He had been accustomed to succeed in
all that he undertook. He swore in
his heart he would not fail in this if
human effort and human perseverance
could render him successful.
He called on John Terrier that night,

We have all heard of the German who
(having been fooled by joker who
pointed to church steeple and asked:
''How is that for high?') Immediately
went home, called his wife out into the
yard, and, pointing to the neighboring
shot-tower, asked with Unsurpassed
mirth: ''How high vas dot?"-Chicage
