GIVEN A BLACK EYE.

Mr.. John 4. Doyle tells why the Cali
fOrnia wine exhibit at Chicago was dis
NAL failure. The state and separate
counties in the State incurred considerable
expense to get our wines in line with Eu-
ropean wines, but were ruled out by con-
cessinnaires who had paid high prices for
the privilege of selling wines they could
make the most profit in. Space was put
up at auction and the highest bidder
bought also the right to turn his privilege
to the best account. Mr.. Doyle says:
The purchaser of the monopoly of catering,
including the selling of wines, laid In stock Of
wines for his anticipated trade which he
naturally purchased for as little aud proposed
10 sell for as much as possible. or course, the
goods purpOrted TO be European wines.
Mr.. DOYLE seems to have got a tOlera-
bly, correct measure of the Worlds fairs.
Both the Chicago scheme and our imiIa-
ton Of it were merely speculalive-one on
a large the other on a small scale. There
does not seem to have been higher puT-
pose in either on the part of most exhibit
ors than to make ready money. A fair at
which an industry is supposed to make an
exhibit fixes the standard of that industry.
Visitors assume that the industry did the
best it could. They know nothing about
the sale of monopolies to CONFESS ionaires.
In this commercial era the only way to
hold a worlds fair is for the Government
to furnish the plan, the money, the men
to conduct it and to stand the inevitable
loss. 1t is better that exhibitors should
have free advertising than that great in
dustres should be given black eye be-
cause they could not buy a way to the

AN ARGUMENT AGAINST GRE
NATION.

The arguments against cremation have
just been set forth in popular and forci-
BILE manner by sir Francis Seymour Haden
at q congress of the British Institute of
Public Health. Sir Francis assails the
practice Of cremation on purely scientific
grounds, and he is aim ost equally emphatic
in his condemnation of those forms of
burial which involve the use Of metallic
cnffins, brick graves and stone vaults. His
argument may be summed up in a few
sentences.
Everything that has lived dies, and
everything that dies returns to the earth.
Thus, ever since the world assumed its
present shape the earth has been in receipt
of mass of dead ana effete matter which
is probably equal to the sum Of organic
life going on upon its surface. This dead
and effete matter is dige stsd by the earth,
disinfected and resolved into new and
harmless combinations, and these, when
restored to the earth, repair the loss caused
by death and decay. feed animal and vege-
table life, re plenish streams and rivers, and
supply the atmosphere with qualities which
maintain the uXuriance. health and beauty
of the earth's surface. The uses OF death
were carefully provided for in the economy
Of the system of the globe. Were it not
for the elements which the earth draws
from the dead animal and vegetable life
that is deposited upon or within it, it
would run short of the material required
to fulfill IT'S purpose as the habitalion of
man and other animate creatures, and
serious results would follow. The aim of
creation would be defeated-so far as
hnp,op life 10 commonwealth fba
lists had their way. 1t could net be alt =
gether defeated. for it is beyond the power
of any cremation society to make a hoIo-
caust Of all the lower orders OF animal
life and Of all the orders of vegetable lite
cut to the degree that the human corpse
fulflls the law Of is creation in becoming
after death the source of new life, lhey
would set themselves against the purposes
of nature.
The further contention of Sir Francis is
that this law is to some degree defeated by
the burial of corpses in vaults of masonry
or collins of metal. According to his view.
a properly buried body does not remain in
the earth or become part of the earth.
The earth is mere porous medium be-
tween it and the air. Through this medium
the air with its dews and its rains filters
and when it reaches the corpse. it oxidizes
it; that is TO say, it resolves its noxious
and poisonous elements into new and
harmless products. which, in a gaseous
state. pass upward through the same
porous medium, re-enter the atmosphere
and become a source of new animal and
vegetable life. Hence Sir Francis insists
that bodies should be blu RED. three or four

THE PRINCE WINS.

From the little social duel between the
Prince of Wales and Sir William Gordon
Cumming, which grew out of the Trsnby
Croft baccarat affair. the Prince has come
out winner. GOrion Cumming is so
nearly ruined that be has given up his
country seat to which he took his rich
American wife after the trial was over.
For a time they held upon the edge of the
grade of English society which does not
mind baccarat so that Prince plays il,
but by degrees the cold English shoulder
was turned. 1t is rumored now that Lady
Gordon-Cumming is anxious to return to
her own country where the rule of the
Prince is not quite so absolute,

Austria, to say that there are no women physi-

During the last ten years Mrs. Bernard
Beere, the London actress, has made point of

The Marquis OF Dufferin and Ava, as LORD
Warden OF the Cirque Ports, has headed a
movement to preserve the historical buildings
OF The ancient port Of Rye, including Ypres
Castle, built more than 700 years ago, and the
Land Gate, erected In 1860.
General George r. Jessup received two letter,
at his residence in Marietta, Ga, the other day
which bore the postmark 1859 and whose
writer's are dead. Where the letters have been

CHEAP GOODS.

The worst thing that can happen to this
country is to cheaper things. There is
about 80 cents worth of labor in every
dollars worth of goods that is made, and
consequently about nine-tenths of the
cheapening comes out of labor. There is a
very general agreement that under the
new tariff goods are being shipped from
Europe that under the old tariff would
have been manufactured in the United
States. The new tariff lets them in al
reduced rates of duties and thereby reduces
their cost in the American market. A dis
patch from Berlin, dated September 1,
says:
The effect OF the new United States tariff bill
has been instantaneous In Berlin, Frankfort,
Chemnitz and other export centers. The very
day the law went into effect the invoices pass
ing through the United States Consulate Gen.
eraI increased so per cent, and on the following
two days the number was doubled. The indus
tries most affected are decorative china, ready
made clothing, paperware and chemicals. The
whole German export trade TO the United
States will be increased. owing 10 the passage
of the United States tariff measure. from 100
to 80 per cent for some months if present ind-
cations can be relied on.
This cheaDening of foreign goods can
only be met by cheapening domestic goods.
This is the law of competition. Another
turn must be given to the screw which is
grinding down American labor. Even
sweatshop prices must be cut. Meantime
Chairman Wilson receives the congratula-
tions of English manufacturers and assures
them that ''bliDd, greedy, selfish protec-
ton" will never be established again in
the United States. Mr.. Wilson believes
evidently in sharing our market with our
neighbors. Protection is selfish because
it cares for our own. But free trade is not
selfish when it undermineS American labor
In its own country.
