COMMENT AND OPINION,

GB Sugar is sweet, but the demo
 cratic party seems to have more of fl
 on hand than it wants.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
 E3 Some people are wondering why
 Chairman Wilson did not stay in Lon
 don, if free governments are really, so
 5othersome.-lowa State Register.
 EB The net results of the great ef- fort to secure democratic harmony are now perfectly evident to the naked eye.-N. Y. Tribune.
 E3 The voters have got tired of dropping democratic ballots in the slot and seeing wages go down. They will exhibit thelr weariness in November. Milwaukee Sentinel.
 G8 It is fact worthy of notice that of all the clergvmen who preach polit- lcal sermons not one can be found who hnds 1t necessary to denounce repub- licans in office. Wherever you find municipal corruption denounced from the pulpits you will find democrats filling municipal offices. Cleveland Leader.
 Gg Gov. Mckinley states an impor- tant truth in terse and plain way when he says that i've must not only have something to sell, but be able to find somebody to buy. That is to say, our products are worthless unless we have market for them, and there can be market only when the affairs of the government are so conducted as to inspire business confidence, to pro- mote manufactures, and to keep labor employed-in other words, when the democratic party is not in power.-St Louis Globe-Democrat.
 eS-"Instead of paying off any of the national debt, the present administra- tion has been compelled to borrow 5o,O00,0o0 to pay the running ex- penses of the government and has been forced, by reason of the exigen- cies of the treasury, to encroach upon the gold reserve of $10O, 1000, 900, which had never been encroached upon since the hour that John Sherman estab- lished it down to the present adminis- tration, but which has been en- croached upon by from $40, ,OO0, ,OO0 to s4s, 100000. So there is $50, 900, ,OOO of borrowed money and $4s, ,0OO, GOO taken out of the sacred fund which MT. Cleveland in his first inauguration speech said it would be a violation of public honor to encroach upon. ."--Gov Mckinley,

It will thus be seen that during the three Septembers in which the Me- Kinley tariff was in operation dS91, 1892, lS93) the average receipts were about 25 per cent greater than those of the first September of the sugar trust tariff. It will also be seen that Me September receipts under Me McRinlev laoo soere many millions tn ercess of erpendi- lures, soht1e the September receipts under the sugar trust tarif were many millions less Man the expenditures.
 Thus it will be seen that sugar trust tariff, as far as we have tried it, has been failure from every standpoint of comparison. The custom receipts under its first month were but about 60 per cent. of those under the first month of the Mckinley law; its total receipts during the first month were but about 55 per cent of those under the first month of the Mckinley law; it's first month of operation produced receipts far below those of any cor responding month during ten years, under two republican tariffs and four administrations; the first month of it's operation produced a deficit of $7,7o1,- 79o, while the first month of the Mo

HONOR, NOT HoNoRS. .

Denser and mightier, hour by hour, Sweils the throng upon life's highway; tlercer the struggle for place and power, Till the giants of old were as babes to-day, And the heart of the novice with chill diSmay Grows faint at the sight of the hopeless race For how shall he soar if there be not space For the strong, swift beat of his wings to
 playY
 True, there may be many that throng the start And eagerly jostle place to win; But only the patient and stout of heart Go on as bravey as they begin. And the ranks of the runners are struggling
 thia
 When the road grows steep and the pathway
 rough;
 And each will find there is room enough, As he hears the goal where the race comes in. Yet not to all is the lot assigned To win the laurel and wear the crown; For Fate is tickle and Fortune blind And sheds unseeing her smile or frown; And tho foremost runner is smitten down When the bay-clad summit is well-ngh scaled What then, Of truth to have striven and
 failed
 Is noblor thing than unearned renownI For the deafoning roar of the cheering crowd Falls sweet on vanity's eager ear, And the fool is fiattered if praise be loud Aud dtScernS not the true from the insncere, But the still small voice that the wise holds
 dear Is the voice that whispers within the breast: 'Thou hast fought thy battle and done thy
 best,
 When thy captain calls thou hast naught to
 fear" Then work while the blood in your veins runs
 strong,
 While limbs are supple and hearts are light. While life is summer and days are long, Ere winter comes with it's sunless night. What tho the deed that is done be slight Feebly wrought and with lack of skill! Not the work itself but the workers will Availeth aught in the Masters sight. False and hollow the voice of Fame, Fades the gilt on her glittcring scroll; Nor halls she any with full acclaim Till she hears the llnell of his passing toll. Then seek not place on the heroes roll. But take for your guide in the worlds de-
 spite Not What shall 1t profits" but God and
 right"
 Honor, not "Honors." shall be your goal.
 The Spectator.

 The stranger discreetly forgot whc it was, but he had heard that it was a remarkable story and that the man or the cracker box was indirectly inter, ested, and as he was always fond oi hearing true stories, especially when there was little sentiment in them, he begged for the one indicated.
 Ut ain't of no conscience" said the man on the cracker box; facts is facts, and leetle sentiment mixed in with 'cm isn't goin' to hurt nobody. If you've planned to marry the girl you love, an got a whole lifetime of hap piness mapped out, with you and her Twin in section, on a town lot, and you get left, you'll always have pie ture as fair as Paradise, an like enough the reality wouldn't have banned out half satisfactory.

 "BG we-hem, I mean they-the vigilantes didn't wait for no sheriff to let the law take it's course. He were found red-handed with them two hosses, Sunburst and Baby Mine, sneaking them down to the river to the fatboat. and we didn't stand on ceremony, but told him to say prayer an we all bowed our heads an waited, watches in hand-such of us as had them-to time him, an when the five minutes was up he went up, too. An must say he died game. There was most bootiful scowl on his face an he never asked any odds of this world or the next. It was the purtiest lynch ing bee 1 ever attended, and don't you forget it." "But the widow" suggested the trav- eler, as the man on the cracker-box lapsed into revery.
