SUPERINTENDENT ROBERT P. PORTER
who had charge of the first work of the
eleventh census of the United States,
and who, as we'll as any person living, is
fitted to speak of the condition of the
United States, in the years from 1890,
up to to the time the democrats took the
helm, says of the condition, then and
now:
What would we not give to-day, 1t this ma
ton could by some magic power be placed
back where it was when Benjamen Harri-
son stepped down and Grover Cleveland
took he helm! Back to the close of the
great decade of development, which it was
my good fortune to photograph for all time
to come in the twenty-four magnificent
quarto volumes of the eleventh census!
The democratic party may succeed in put
ting the hand of the dial of progress back
a few years, but it cannot destroy the re-
ports which the census office sent broad
cast throughout the civilized world, and it
cannot er adicate the indellble facts of
national, state and municipal Indebtedness
wiped out; of increased wealth; of devel-
oped resources; of expanding centers of in
dustrial energy; of industrial supremacy:
OF extending railroads; of advance in edu-
cation; of improved physical conditions; of
development of religious sentiment; of the
spread of science; of the adoption of in
ventions; Of the improvement of morals;
of the building and ownership of homes;
Of the forward steps in architecture, and
of the generally improved condition of the
people of this republic. Read the book of
your own country during a generation of
protection to our labor; study it in all its
phases, and you will find that every honest
report is against the British free trade
theory and in favor of the American sys-
tenn of protection. Meet theories with
facts, a assumptions with figures, ever bear
ing in mind that your adversaries start
with a theory and attempt to argue, hence
the existence of the facts; to fit the fact to
the theory, rather than the theory
to the fact: and, lastly, bring common
sense, patriotism and an unpreiudiced
mind to bear on the problem, and you will
have a system of political economy the
warp of which will be progress and pros.
perity. and the wool c%ontentment and
love of the republic.

THERE'S a western contingent of
Coxey's army, 500 strong, which has
started from Butte to join the colossal
aggregation in the east. Reports say
they have started via the Northern
Pacific, but as it is not specified whether
the freight, passenger or tie mode of
transportation was adopted, it is difficult
to approximate N itinerary of their trip,
or to state at what time they will cross
the Missouri.

In the beginning Of the second year of
democratic rule, it would be amusing
were not the question of the sustenance
of the unemployed too serious to be
amusing-to note that Representative
Davis (pop.)o of Kansas, has introduced in
the house a long bill, reciting the woes
OF the unemployed, and directing the
secretary Of war to Immediately enlist
100000 men in an industrial volunteer
army, to serve for the period of one year
after enlistment" The army is to be
clothed and fed and paid as regular
soldiers. Instead of drilling, they are to
be employed on public works such as
canals, rivers, harbors, public highways,
etc. To defray the expense of this army
the secretary of the treasury is to issue
s5O,000,OO0 of legal tender notes and GER
tain other forms of currency. Now, the
amusing part of this bill, is that it comes
at a time when, according to the prom
ises OF democrats, and pops, too, for that
matter-for so loving we're the two part
les in the many examples of their fusion
in '92, that it was hard to tell 'em apart
the country should be enjoying the
very fullest of prosperlty's f%ullness. It
comes al a time of absolute democratic
supremacy in every branch of national
government. the which, so the democrats
said, was the one thing necessary to the
conversion of America to Utopia. And
at the time when all these things should
be-, they are not. And bills are intro
duced, whose provisions are that the gov
eminent shall take paternal care of it's
unemployed citizens-whose employ
ment has been taken away from them by
some of the sublime i%ntricacies of demo-
cratic legislation. Not that the men are
undeserving, for they are not. It is not
their fault they are unemployed, except
inasmuch as they elevated the democrats
into control of the national government
by their ballots. BUTT seems very, very
sad, that the condition Of the working
man, after n year of democracy, should
be such that he is in need Of government
aid to procure even the barest necessar-

OVER in Germany, q tailor has invent.
ed a bullet proof cloth, which, if it proves
to have the properties claimed for it, will
revolutionize The art of war, and, in fact,
of everyday life. According to the ac-
count of the Pioneer Press, the tailor of
Mannheim stood up and permitted sew
eral shots to be fired at him from the
new German army rife, which sends a
bullet through several inches of solid oak
and can NOV down half a dozen men
ranged in single file. The bullets struck
true, but simply embedded themselves
in the cloth armor, from which they
were afterward taken. If we are to
credit all this, the possibilities of war
take still another turn. The long.1ange,
small-bore rifle, using smokeless pow
der, is a weapon SO deadly that many
have doubted the possibility of getting
men to stand up against others armed
with it in the field. But if they can
have a covering of the new armor, all
these improvements in guns are worth
less, and nothing short of a cannonball
or gatling projectile will stop the soldiers
advance. Only shots aimed at the head
would take effect, and a method of pro-
lection against these would doubtless
be found. It is possible that in the next
great war the soldiers will bear a re-
semblance to the fully caparisoned
knights of old, only that they will wear
light, flexible, bullet proof clothing in
stead of steel greaves and coats of mail,
