thistle has been overrunning the farms
IN Minnesota and North Dakota. Where
it came from no one knows. but every
body knows that it is here, and appar-
emily to stay. The farmers might have
eXtermnated it easily at its first appear
ance if they had understood its char
acter, but they permitted it to increase
and multiply and devastate the earth.
Its present luXuriant growth is the fanlt
of the farmers themselves. yet they pro-
pose TO saddle the whole people with an
enormous burden that they may be re-
lieved from the consequences of their
own folly. Nothing could be more alb
surd or unjust. III
Most of the Western states have laws
imposing severe penalties upon prop
erty owner, who permit noxious weeds
to go to seed OH their farms or on the
roads passing them. The law has been
enforced as far as the Canada thistle
and the snap.dragon are concerned;
and these. which thirty years or SO ago
threatened to overrun the whole coun-
try, are now almost extinct. 1t is with
in the power of the legislatures of the
several states TO enact laws with regard
to the Russian plague of the same nat
ure as those applying to the Canada
thistle and other similar pests, but it is
entirely outside Of the province of the
general government to take any action
in the matter, or to make any such APP
preparation as that asked for. And,
whatever the eXigency may be, it would
be wholly improper for the general gov
eminent to take any action. Especially
would it be improper to make an i'm
mense appropriation out OF the public
treasury for purpose that concerns the
individual, and which the laws of the
states are competent to regulate.
The government has neither the pow
er nor the money asked for with which
to fight the Russian thistle. The farm
ers will be compelled to fight the battle
against 1t, just as they have in the past
fought against other pests of like
character.

HOW DO THE ORGANS LIKE 1T?

1t is great thing to be a Republican
organ. The editor can blow the praises
of his party year in and year out. and
receive his reward by placing on his
books large sum in the shape of un-
paid subscriptions, most of which are
utterly worthless.
But the country editor feels that he
must be loyal to his party, and hence
his unrequited labor.
Now comes a Republican meeting to
arrange for the next campaign, and, as
a means of success. it is decided to buy
copies of the New York Weekly Trib-
nue. and Chicago Inter Ocean and cir
culate them broadcast.
This must be gratifying to the aver
age country editor. who prints paper
thousand times more valuable for its
local effect than outside sheets possibly
can be.
While the Republican press is ex-
tending credit in order to keep up its
circulation. when Republican commits
tees have any money to pay for news
papers they use the New York Tribune
and Chicago Inter Ocean.
BOW does the Republican country
press like such treatment?

THE CONSTITUTIONS" HEELS.

The Atlanta Constitution, like the
New York Sun, prefers to use its heels
rather than its head to demonstrate its
loyalty to the Democratic party. 1t Is
easy TO account for the mulishness of
the New York Sun. When Mr.. Dana.
some years since. in a fit of piaue,
packed up his political principles and
left the Republican party, be unfortu-
nately, for his own allies, brought with
him as an heirloom from the Wing
party. which won his earlier affections,
paternalistic idea of government.
Since the Democratic party began to
draw its lines and array its forces in
opposition to paternaiism, this Wing
relic of Mr.. Dana's has been source of
much discontinue to him and of some
little annoyance to the party with
which he insists on remaining. The
annoyance to the Democrats, however.
has been solely in being obliged to see
the sings and arrows of the outrageous
Sun being quoted approvingly by Re-
publican papers as coming from that
staunch Democratic organ, the Sum-
Just what similar faint of ancestry
causes the Atlanta Constitution to be in
a condition of more or less open revolt
with its party and its policy weare not
informed of, but 1t is enjoying whatever
distinction there is in being quoted by
Republican papers in the same manner
in which the Sun is paraded. It's latest
occupation of Its heels is in its attack
upon Secretary Carlisle, whom it identi
fes with Wall street and the gold bugs,
the money power, and ali the other
bugaboos of the political nursery, be-
cause the secretary presumed TO criti-
else that Republican policy which, in
1878, finally committed the government
to that part of the banking business
which consists in issuing redeemable
notes. while withholding from it DOW

party has the courage of its couvic-
tions any way, and when it adopts
policy it braces UP and stands by it and
takes without wineing The success or
the Touchdown that comes. 1t illus
trates this by the course Of that party
on McKinleyism. When we compare
the defiant and bold front which that
party put on when it faced the country
with its newborn Mckinley infant in
its arms in the campaign of 1890 with
the declaration it made when facing a
national campaign ut Minneapolis i'll
1892, where it plaintively avowed that
all the protection it wanted any way was
just enough TO cover the difference be-
tween what it cost to make the thing
protected here and abroad, the aptness
of our contemporaries illustration loses
itself in London fog.

NoTTHE GOVERNMENTS DUTY

One of the most permcious effects of
the paterhalistic system of government
which has long been fostered by the
Republican party is the growing dis
position manifested among the people
to look to the federal administration for
assistance in matters that are of purely
individual concern. No matter what
the grievance Of a community may be,
whether of private or public nature,
appeal is at once made to Washington
for redress. The government is asked
to irrigate the arid lands of the Western
plains; it is importuned to cause rain to
fall where nature has decreed that
desert should exist; it is asked to reg
ulate trade on our public marts; the
demand is made that it shall feed the
hungry and clothe the naked; that II
shall care for the health of man and
beast; that it shall be responsible for
the moral conditions of communities.
and for their educational status.
And now comes Senator Hansbrougb.
of North Dakota, with request that
the government appropriate a million
dollars for the eXtirpation of noXious
weed that is annoying his farmer con-
stituents. For several years the Russian

Striking Presentation OF "Ths
HunchDack. ,"

LIunCnOdCks
Those who failed to see Julia Marlowe
and her admirable troupe in "rhe
Hunchback" at the Metropolitan last
night missed rare performance. How
ever. large audience was present. One
sometimes wishes Miss Marlowe's voice
were a little stronger, but what she
lacks in strength of voice is more than
balanced by her charming grace and
naturalness. Nor is all her power
summed up in these splendid qualities.
as she well demonstrated last evening
/ IN her imperSonation nf Julia. In the
third and fouth acts she arose tn occa-
slons with great force. and without the
exercise of great lung power. Miss
Marlowe is never stacy. She has
marvellous conception of her characters,
and attains her ends by methods purely
her own, and which never fail to please.
She is never dreary. but maintains the
|, interest of the audience and sus aims
!, her part faithfully from beginning to
} end.
1.-The Hunchback" has been presented
in st. Paul many times, but never more
|, effectively than last evening.
!. Mr.. Weaver makes a strong Master
Walter. Like Miss MarlOwe, he is an
actor who never overdoes his parts. He
develops striking effects by faithful
representation.
Henry Jewett as Sir Thomas Clifford,
as might be expected of him. does some
clever work.
1t Is doubtful If any actor can per-
form the part of Helen more pleasingly
than Eugenia Woodward did. Her
scenes with Modus, performed by
Thomas Coleman, were very amusing,
MIR. Coleman contributing his full
share to the effects.
Mr.. Amory, as Fathom, proved that
he is pretty good master of comedy of
this order. He was decidedly comical.
Miss Marlowe, Mr.. Weaver and Mr..
