II We Forgive Not Our Enemies, How Shall

In his letter to Mr.. Catchings of Mis-
sissippi, in which he held up before the
world the awful example Of Democracy
in its dealing with the tariff question.
whereby Democratic principles were
trampled upon and trusts and combines
were taken into the confidence Of the
party and their interests served in pref
erence to those of the common people,
the president says of the Democratic
senators, against whom this crime is
charged, 'that they shall never be for
gotten or forgiven. It Is indeed ter
rible calamity that such good men as
are known to constitute the active poll
ticians who are the managers Of the
party, including the executive, his cabi.
net and the Democratic senate, should
all be lost that forgiveness is impossi-
BILE because Of not forgivingl Perhaps
the chaplain Of the senate in praying
for wisdom and guidance in the coun-
ellis and deliberations Of that body for
got in his prayers to remind these
brethren who dwell together in happy
unity that they must forgive each 9TH
ers' weaknesses, even to the dabbling in
sugar stock and sharing in sugar trusts.
There is much to be hoped for In ref
ormation among those brethren, that
they, like Judas, shall return the 30
pieces of silver and do their first works
over again by repentance and confession.
In this way the president may be enabled
to both forgive and forget

The estimates for the fiscal year, for
which the present session of congress
made appropriations--namely, the year
closing June 30, 1895-were estimated
by the treasury department and sent to
congress by the president of the United
States, asking for $500, 862, S4O.71. Ap-
preparations were made for $490. $685.
889. 81, being in round numbers $780,
600, 900 less than the president asked
for in the estimates prepared in the
treasury department. 1t will be noted,
then, that, in the first place, congress
failed to appropriate $50, 900, 900, which
must appear in all probability in the
next year as deficiency. The appropri-
ations this year are greater by $27, a69,-
85S.72 than the Reed congress (the
Fifty first, which was heralded far and
near by the Democrats as "the billion
dollar congress. The reduction made
in the appropriations for pensions was
$50, 900, 900 in round numbers less than
was appropriated last year, which leaves
tho appropriations for this year standing
as $263, 5l5. 10 greater than the appro-
priations made last year.
The foregoing gives the reader q
glimpse at Democratic reform with in
creased appropriations.

Of societies, a matter In

administration Of societies, a matter In
which she is thoroughly conversant,
but she wisely restricts her own labors
to the special lines she has taken up,
and which absorb all her time and ener-
gies. Politics never attracted her, nor
has she ever taken an active part in the
vindication of woman's rights. Still she
is ever ready to lend a helping hand to
members of her own sex, to fellow
workers as well as to the disinherited
by fortune. But, although she personal
ly prefers to hold aloof from party strife,
the woman's cause has undoubtedly her
entire sympathy. Indeed 1t would have
been strange had 1t been otherwise,
owing to the great friendship that exist
ed between her and the late Maria De-
raismes The connection between them
was almost that Of mistress and pupil.
There was difference of some 10 years
in their ages, and Isabelle Bogelot,
when weakly child, was taken under
the wing of the elder woman and her
sister, Mime. Fenisse, that she might
have the benefit of country air, and re-
mained an inmate of their house until
she married. This early training had
probably q great effect ON her subse-
quent career.
Not being gifted with literary abili-
ties, as was the more brilliant Maria
Deraismes, she sought to render herself
useful in other ways 1t was not, how
ever, until after her marriage that she
Joined the Guvre des Liberees de st.
Lazare, with which her name has since
been SO inseparably connected. This
was in 1878, and the society had been
founded three years previously by Mile.
Michel de Grandpre, the niece Of the
chaplain Of st. Lazare, who had been
struck during her intercourse with the
inmates Of this house of detention by
the anxiety evinced by so many Of the
prisoners as their terms Of imprison-
ment came to q close and they knew
they would be once more thrown on
their own resources and have to do bat
tie with the difficulties Of life, heavily
handicapped by the ignominy Of con-
viction. Initiated into the workings of
the society by Mme Emile de Mar
sier, its vice president, Mime. Bogelot
threw herself into the work heart and
soul and was very soon elected men,
Der of the committee, to become, in
1880, its general directress, post
which she has held ever since. London

The north Atlantic division pays per
capita $12.s2. The north central divi-
sion pays $3.50. The western division
pays Sl6.0S, or an average for all the
states outside of the south of $l2.74,
being three times the amount per capita
paid by the south. Here, again, we dis
cover the difference between purely agri-
cultural states and states with diversi-
fed industries. The south, without fac.
tories and industrial Improvement, Is
also without enterprise or public i'm
provements.

or in Massachusetts, $50. 76 are collected,
or in Nevada $22. SO are collected, can
only be understood as revealing the ut
ter want of enterprise in public affairs.
4 These figures are cited to show that in
the states where free trade ideas prevail
everything else partakes of the nature
of cheapness--cheap men, cheap homes,
cheap roads, cheap towns, cheap rail
roads, as against the thrift and enter
prise of New England and the great
west.
The Question Of Money.
The Democrats, having succeeded in
passing tariff bill which suits every
body, if the promises and expectations
Of the trainers and champions of the
measure are in anywise fulfilled, the
most sanguine Of our people will be
pleased.
The question of money at once takes
the place of tariff in the minds of all
thoughtful PEOPLE and is the all absorb
ing topic Of investigation and discus
sion.
Following the lines laid down by the
Republican party more than 30 years
ago, when as party they were COM
PEELED to originate and adopt system
of currency and national credit, which
was to be tested by the most desperate
of all methods known in history, but
which was to succeed and triumph in
securing place In the monetary sys-
TENS of the world far above anything
ever instituted in human government,
they have continued to pursue and main
tain unbroken through all the years Of
Republican control an interchangeable
currency based upon coin, every dollar
of which has been maintained and re-
deemed according to the original pledge.
!, The party today is still in favor Of
sound money and shall continue to
maintain by legislation the use Of gold,
silver and paper. with profit to all the
people.

The close of the second session of the
Fifty third congress gives us a glimpse
Of what the Democrats can do by way
Of running great government like ours.
While they have increased the appro-
priations over those of last year by sew
eral hundred thousand they have failed
to collect revenue enough to meet the
current expenses of the government.
The receipts for the year ending June
30, 1894, are $SS, $50, 292. 7S less than
the receipts for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1898. This deficit does not
show in the accounts of the treasury by
reason of the fact that it was paid in part
from moneys in the treasury ON March
4, 1894, when Cleveland was inaugu-
rated and in part from sale of bonds
made by Secretary Carlisle February
last amounting to s5s, 633. 900. II, by
which the annual interest charge against
the government was increased SO, 000,-
900 per annum.
BY an examination of the tables fur
nished by the treasury department
of receipts and expenditures it Is
shown that President Cleveland expend-
ed for his first full fiscal year 81, 295,-
e77. 90 more TO carry ON the government
than was expended in the fiscal year
under President Harrison. This is ex-
elusive of pensions, for all the saving
made by President Cleveland's admin.
istration is at the expense Of the old SOL
dier of the late war.

HONORED BY A NATION.

Mime. Bogelot Receives the Ribbon Of the
Legion of Honor.
The French government by awarding
the ribbon Of the Legion of Honor to
Mime. Bogelot, has turned brilliant
light on personality whose career has
hitherto lain somewhat in the shade.
Leaving to others the care Of vindicat-
ing the feminine cause in public meet
ings and in the press, Mime. Bogelot
has devoted her life to the redemption
of female criminals Her name is init
mately connected with that highly phil
anthropic work, the "Euvre de Liber-
ees de st. Lazare," of which she is now
directress, and it is mainly due to the
fact that she personally represented the
society at the woman's congress at Chi
cago that she owes this public recogni-
tion of her WORKMAN honor seldom
vouchsafed to women, however we'll
merited. To be thus singled out from
among others of her sex must certainly
be extremely gratifying, but 1t is pleas
ing to find that Nine. Bogelot takes her
honors very meekly. The predominating
characteristics of the new chevaliere are
meekness and cheerfulness, combined
with excellent business capacities and q
boundless compassion for human errors
and misfortunes of every shape.
She is an admirable specimen Of that
class of Frenchwomen about whom the
fashionable society of Paris knows lit

WEST VIRGINIA FOR PROTECTION.
Three Hundred Years Ago This Policy Was
Born ON Virginia Soil.

Three Hundred Years Ago This Policy was
Born ON Virginia Soil.
Me question of protection for wool
and manufactures thereof seems to have
occupied the attention of the lawmakers
in the American colonies in the very be-
ginning Of their history. As early as
1909 the colonists Of Jamestown, Va,
were provided with sheep, which did
not increase very rapidly in consequence
of their destruction by wolves, SO that
In i64S, 80 years after their first intro
duction, the number Of sheep In the
whole colony of Virginia was only
5000. The first evidence of government
protection for wool was In an enactment
passed in 1867, setting forth that no
sheep be transported out Of the colony
except upon such penalties as may be
thought fit by the governor and the
council, and in 1859 Virginia, by a stat
ute, not only prohibited the exporta-
tion of wool, but offered a bounty as an
encouragement to the raising Of sheep
and the establishment of woolen manu-
factures by Offering five pounds of to-
bacco Cat that time Virginia currency
for every yard of woolen cloth made in
the colony.
Thus protection was born on Virginia
soil The principle of protection to
American industries was again recog-
nized in 1864. when, with view to di-
versifying industries, the general assem-
bly, of Virginia, at the public expense,
established in each county looms for
weavers In 1868 law was passed for
the purpose of better converting wool,
fax and hemp into clothing. The COM
missioners of the county courts were
given authority to build houses for the
instruction of poor children in the art
of spinning and weaving.
And to further promote these objects
laws were enacted in 1852 imposing
heavy penalties upon the expectation of
wool, and for the encouragement of the
working up of wool into cloth bounty
of six pounds of tobacco was provided
for every person making a yard Of
woolen cloth, or linsey woolsey, three
fourths of yard wide, and for every
dozen pairs of mems or women's wooden
or worsted hose bounty of l2 pounds
of tobacco was offered. The price of
wool was fixed at s pence per pound for
feeces, washed before shearing. In 1887
Virginia passed an act for the encourage
ment of domestic manufactures, includ-
ing those from wool, which was rejected
by the king as hostile to English inter-
ests. for in her colonial policy England
was always selfish and cruel-a SOW

PAPER HORSESHOES.
1hey Are Helpful to Cavalry Horses on
Long Marches

Long Marches.
When paper horseshoes were first in
troduced into the cavalry service OF
the German army few years ago they
excited good deal of interest. Sew
eral cavalry horses were first shod
with the paper shoes and the effect OBJ
served. Itwas found, says the Chicago
Herald, that not only did the lightness
and elasticity of the shoe help the
horse on the march, making it possible
for him to travel faster and farther
without fatigue than horses shod with
iron, but that the paper shoe had the
property of being unaffected by water
and other liquids. These new sheets
OF paper are pressed closely together,
one above another, and rendered i'm
pervious to the moisture by the appli-
cation of oil of turpentine. The sheets
are glued together by sort of paste
composed of turpentine, whiting, gum
and linseed oil, and then submitted to
a powerful hydraulic pressure. Paper
horseshoes are also made by grinding
up the paper into a mass, combining it
with turpentine, sand, gum, litharge
and certain other substances, pressing
it and afterward drying it. But these
shoes are less tough and elastic than
those made of thin sheets of paper laid
one upon another. These shoes are
fastened to the horses feet either by
means of nails or with kind of glue
made of coal tar and caoutchouc.
