that he expressed the sentiment of at
least SIS, 600. 900 our 10000, 900 peo-
pie, and that after the excitement Of
the moment had passed away and the
other 100000 people would also
agree with him. Senator Gordon, of
Georgia, knew that he represented
the views of the Southern people
when he followed Senator Davis in
an eloquent outburst of patriotism.
In Chicago itself, the significant and
prevailing badge that men wore on
the streets was small button-hole

strike. with all its criminal and
bloody concomitants, forms horrid

people. The campaign III the Unit
ed States in favor of tariff reform had
produced it's results in Canada, and
che Liberal party, which, since 1889,
has been under the leadership Of Mr..
Wilfrid Laurier, adopted an aggres-
sive policy in relation to the protect
i've system which has so long prevail
ed in Canada. The result has been
general reynlsion of feeling against
the extremely oppressive features OF
the present Canadian tariff. This
feeling was SO strong as to make it
seem necessary to the present admin
istration during the present session
Of Parliament to introduce bill to
amend the tariff. Professedly this
was measure to reduce the tariff,
bnt really very little change has been
made. The protective have been
preserved with religious care, and,
during the consideration of the bill
in detail through the committee

been steadily restoring the duties to
the scale at which they originally
stood, SO that when the Canadian

Canada and the United states

The statesmen Of heUnited States
who wonder at Canada's preference
for Great Britain forget that nothing
has been said or done at the national
capital, nor, indeed, by any man Of
national reputation, that would tend
to evoke Canadian regard or flatter
Canadian uanity. Nearly every ref
erencest to Canada made on public oc-
casions by American statesmen is
either eontemptuons, hostile. or COM.
planning. This may not be due to
design. Canada has como into note
chiefly through unfortunate difEcnl-
ties in connection with the fishery
and seal question, and when Ganadi-
an conduct he's been discussed az the
national capitol il has been chiefly to
be denounced While this has been

Americas Unshaken Equilibrium.
Ii il absurd for Europeans to call
our American system an expert

Bic for an American thus to refer to
it; for in truth it is the least expert

sustaining system that the world has
ever seea. If one considers the actu-
al, working constitutions Of countries,
ours is the oldest and the most thor
onghly tested Of any that exists to-
day. ignoring Asiatic systems. It is
the stabiest because it has most per-
fectly expressed the equation Of law

JOY In Education.

A great deal has bsen said ant
written about the practical value of 6
good education. The average parent
gives his child its advantages chiefly
for worldly advancement or social
distinction. There is another and
higher view of the question which
presents itself more rarely, and this
is the great delight which growing
knowledge confels upon its position
II a parent OF teacher has instilied
into the child love of good books,
he has given him the NEST valuable
inheritance. If he has excited his
interest, be even glimpses into the
great kingdom of art and letters, nc
has conferred upon him an incalcula-
bic benefit.
The opportunity Of pursuing deep
ly such Investigations may be for
ever denied the man or woman but
tho early refining influence will re-
main forever.
Where the opportunity for extern
sive culture can.be granted, it is little
short of crime to deny it, since every
intellectual accumulation is key to
some new domain of delight. Charles
Reade, in his grert novel, "TheClois-
tef AID the HEARTH" speaks Of those
who actually seem to pride Themselves
upon their ignorance of q certain art
or science, with wisdom at one en-
trance quite shut out" He applauds
+th.t versatility which, though super
fic..al, will enable one to look or listen
with intelligent appreciation. A
great educational purpose has been ae-
:complished when the mental training
has been such as to enhance the JOY

A blight In the West.

"The scorching simeon that has
swept up the western part Of the Mis-
sissippi valley during the past ten
days, shriveling tho growing grain
and adding another disaster to the
long record of crop failures, seems
about to complete the depopulation
Of Western Kansas and Western
Nebraska and will doubtless disheart-
ell many struggling farmers in other
parts of the afflicted section" So
says the Courier-Journal, and our
contemporary adds:
1.-The hot winds from the South
west are common experiences with the
farmers Of that region, but OCCASION
ally the situation is excessively Sc
we're and protracted. 1t was 80 in
the seventies. when the absolute
burning up of the crops caused a
general exodus of discouraged far
mers from Western Kansas. A few
years lator the great grasshoppcr
plague practically swept away the
gains of years Of hard work in the
parched fields. Time after time
since then the rains have failed and
the drouth has shivercd the corn on
tho stalk and ruined the fields of
wheat. Occasionally, as if In cruel
sport. the elements were more kind
Copious rains would soak the rich
soil, the crops would yield abundant
| ly, the granaries would burst out
with plenty, the railroads woulds be
overwhelmed with the freight traffic,
farm mortgages would be reduced and
the hopeful farmers would exule in
the belief that at last fortune had
done with it's frowns and would
henceforth smile upon them.
But these hopes rarely lived Ion
ger than till the next season. Fail
ures were the rule and were so com
pletc as to wipe out all the gains OF
occasional good crops. Hundreds OF
families have given up tho struggle.
Hundreds of farms have been desert
ell. Thousands of settlers have
abandoned all they could not load
into their prairie schooncrs. Millions
of d ollars of Eastern capital invested
in farm mortgages have been virtual
| w lost. It has been an unequal con-
test against unfavorable natural con-
ditions.''
The farmer Of that section should
learn from these lessons of adversely,
concludes the Cou1'icr-Jo,rnat, that
the thing for them to do is to move
down South. We believe that they
are learning this season rapidly and
the South should bid them welcome.
Let Virginia make the most of its OPP
portunity. A rousing immigration
convention will be held next fall, but
much may be done in the meantime
The live real estate agents OF tue
State should be liver than ever and
now that the simeon has followed SO
soon upon the heels Of the great
strike, let them flood the West with
advertising matter. Hit the oppor-
tunity and hit it hard.-Rachmond
