mentS OF their CO. to nporarieS. The man
who was great in those days lowered
far above the IN ISIS OF humanity, as the
mountain towers over the undulatlonS
of the plain. In the present age the
average has been made higher. The
intellectual stature has been raised, aud
the man who overtops all others must
be possessed of surprising greatness.
In former ages there wera n few wRslll,s
in the sea where little fish abounded:
today the whales are III the majority,
and the only question Is as to whics Is
the largest. eTa1G
When the history of the present:age
Is written it viii be found that we have
moi been without our men OF mark,
Grant will live forever as the equal OF
Alexander or Napoleon in war; IN
craftsmanship Lincoln will rank with
the most talented rulers of the earth: in
literature there are scores of names that
Will outraak any that have lived before
them. Perhaps we have no Shake
speare, or Milton, Or Homer; but we have
poets whose cpics and whose genius
have exalted the muse to her ancient
statesmen as well. Gladstone and Bis
ma elk will not be forgotten, nor suffer
by comparison with those who have
preceded them. Longfeilow. Bryant
anu Holmes will be read as long as
Pope aud Shelly and Dryden. and will
appeal far stronger to human sentiment.
The scientists of the present age have
opened up new worlds for study. Per-
haps we have no living genius who can
comprehend them all, in their immen.
sity. But in every province of inquiry
there ara specialists today who have
added immensely to the worlds store of
knowledge. aud will be as worthy of
remembrance as the original discov-
erers. In the domain of applied science
the present is far in advance of the
past, aud now the masses of the people
are in possession of vast treasures that
i'll former times were reserved for the
delectatiOn of a select few OF the more
cultured.
There are giants in the present as
well as in former days-giants in intel
lect and i'll moral courage, heroes who
merit Immortality. In the past the lib
eral arts and sciences belonged to the
arislocratic few: today they are the
property of the plebeian many. There
are men now living who possess more
intimate knowledge of the forces and
laws of nature than the most eminent
investigators of the past, and who yet
make no boast of their knowledge.
There are patient toilers in the domain
of science who have unostentatiously
been adding for years to the treasury
of knowledge and the storehouse of
achievement, ond who have accom-
plished more for the benefit of mankind
than scores OF those who now live only
in memory, but to whom far greater
honor is given.
But the future will be the time to
write the history and judge of the
achievements of the present. And
there is 10 doubt that, when everything
has been tested by the standard of
time and weighed in the balance of
utility, the present generation will ba
found no whit inferior to any that has
preceded it. We are i'm no danger of
suffering by comparisons. Ii they are
odious at all they will be so to those
who have preceded us, not to the men
of the present. - q,

Col. Clough Answered.

Tothe Editor of the Globe
In this mornings GLOBE appeared an
editorial article entitled "rax ANY One
but U.s." which contained the following
allusion TO those members of the st.
Paul chamber of commerce who think
the income tax clause of the Wilson
revenue bill an unfair and unwise prop
osition at this time:
lin thus asking others to be taxed,
and themselves exempted, we see an
instance of that sort of patriotism which
ARENAS Ward SO happily buIlesoued. -
As one of the members of the cham
Der who voted i'll favor of the resolution
OF the chamber on the subject referred
to, should feel much obliged il you
would take early occasion to specify the
particular tax which the members of
the chamber want to have imposed on
other people while they themselves are
exempted therefrom.
w. p. CLoUGH.
st. Paul, Feb. Is, 1894.
If MI. Clough will re-read the article
he will find his answer In the words "A
chamber composed of business men
who could at one time ask congress to
continue the taxation of the raw ma
terlal of iron and steel, OF which thew
are insignificant consumers, etc." he
Will find his query answered. Ed

Hoke Smith was recently hanged in

will not care, for such demonstrations
are complimentary to them rather than

The Chicago City Railway company
has been compelled to take dose of its
own medicine. After the recent heavy
storm the snow was thrown from the
railway tracks in huge wihrows which
greatly INSTRUCTED travel. The COM

whereupon the aggrieved citizens
promptly shoveled it back upon the
tracks. A few more such exhibitions

the corporation that the public has

We will close our Minneapolis Store
Monday and bring our balance of stock on
hand. We want to make one final effort
to get our stock turned into money. The
sale of the past two weeks has been a
wonderful success, and while money has
been lost WE are satisfied and we know
our customers are. No such bargains
were ever sold in st. Paul. Speaking of
this, we saw dry goods window yester-
day with fur bargains %. One was about
the poorest Krimmer Jacket we ever saw.
marked $4,000; cut to $780, We
never asked over $40 90 for such a gar
ment at any time. Another Astrakhan
marked $4,000; cut to $780," We
would be glad to take $4,000 ANY TIME
for such cloak, and have some better
ones NOW at $500. This shows the diff
ference between so-ealled bargains and
GENUINE bargains.
Our goods are marked as they were
originally, in plain figures, and ale fo
sale in all cases for cost, and in most OF
them we will take a loss. WE WANT THE
MONEY and mean business.
We still have good assortment OF
Seal Garments, and we will take 10 per
cent less than actual cost for any one Of
them. You can save from $4,000 to
$4,000 on a garment. Isn't this worth
your while? Owing to having so much
capital locked up in these goods, we are
very anxious to reduce the stock. We are
selling goods for $4,000 that cost us
$225.0O, and were marked $285.OO to
$4,000. We only have 4 Otter Jackets
left. $4,000 takes any one Of them. They
cost us $11O. 90 each. We have about 40
Astrakhans that were $4,000, $500 and
$4,000. You can buy any of them this
week at $500. This involves a eonsid-
cradle loss to us.
Mems Coats we have an elegant stock
of, and we will put the knife in deep. We
can give you good Coats now at $4,000,
$500 to $4,000 that were $4,000,
$4,000 and $4,000 Our Coats, We !
know, are the best.

Chicago, Ill. December l3-One of

the claim now made to awards by
some who were not even exhibitors.
