The Horr-Harvey debate is over, and
the ten-day talking match will Low be
put in type, and the country will have
have an opportunity TO read the matter,
if it wishes. The Chicago Times-Herald
comments upon the closing as follows:
The stenographers WHO reported the
harangue say it was the longest on record
in Cook county. 1t exceeded the number
of words in the unabridged dictionary. It
was as long as two volumes of the Encyclo-
pedia Britannica and was unanimously
voted as interesting and convincing as
either. 1t consumed 1000 pages of long
paper, written closely, and the task of get
ting the matter on paper required six dozen
pencils. Three women and one man were
necessary to handle the manuscript. No
one of them was able to tell the result of
the contest, but there was a general opinion
that the crime OF 1873 would eventually be
added to the fiendish record of II. H. Holmes.
1t was the assignment of the steward to
attend all the sessions. He is OF a mathe-
NAUTICAL u of mind. He figures that the
words of the debate, placed end to end,
would reach from the corner of Madison
and State streets to Garfield park. This is
nearly four miles of solid talk. This stretch
of %eloquence and statistics, cut into rib
bons. would be enough to encircle the
waists Of the women of the city and leave
enough to trim their hats. 1t will make a
book bigger than old DR.. Chase's "Book of
Household Recipes and will be sold as
soon as possible by all train boys and
itinerant peddlers.

The main cost of raising wool in Sec
tions where the sheep Craze over the pub
lie domain is the wages of the herder.
In the Argentine Republic, says the
American Economist, this quality of
labor receives three Spanish dollars per
month. In Montana the wages of the
herder, which is also the main cost of
growing wool there, is $40 per month, as
against So in South America. This is
an increase in the cost of growing Ameri-
can wool, otherwise under similar condi-
tions, of 1000 per cent. The freight on
wool from Loudon to New York by sail
ing or steam vessel is only one.fourth
cent per pound, while the cheapest
freight from Montana is 2 cents per
pound to the same market. Here is an.
increase to the Montana grower in the
cost of transportation of 700 per cent
over the cost to the South American
grower. With this difference against
the American grower on the free range,
how much more must be the cost of rails
ing wool on farms worth $50 to SIS per
acre7

JUSTICE BROWN, in the Forum, takes
a stand against lat oft reiterated wall
that the rich are growing richer and the
poor poorer. While it is entirely true,
he says, that the business methods of the
past thirty years have tended to increase
enormously the fortunes of a few, and
thus to widen the gulf between the very
rich and the very poor, it is wholly un-
true that the poor as a class are either
absolutely or relatively poorer than be-.
fore. Indeed, the number of small but
comfortable homes in every part of the
country, as we'll az the reports of savings
banks and building and insurance asso.
Citations, prove incontestably that the
poor have shared in the prosperity of
the rich, and that the average standard
of comfort was never higher than at
present. Indeed the average working
man of today lives better and possesses
more of the comforts of life than the
average noble of six hundred years ago.
The sins of wealth, though many and
grevious, have not generally been aimed
directly at the expressions of the poor.

AN elaborate work is the report of tn

AN elaborate work is the report of the
director general of the Worlds Column
bian exposition, the Hon. George r..
Davis, which gives a history of the in
ception, organization, and administra-
ton of that great enterprise. It is q
plain business document. It does not
attempt to write the exposition, or any
n connected with it, either up or down.
1t so describes purposes, processes, and
events as to set them clearly in array,
especially before such as may hereafter
become interested IN the solution of SIM
liar problems. Although written and
edited with the purpose of securing the
utmost brevity consistent with the pro.
duction of a complete and Ineligible
narrative, the work is necessarily volu.
minous. It occupies about $500 pages
of printed and type.written matter,
mostly the latter illustrated by about
1900 photographs. It is bound in twenty
volumes, besides the catalogue of ex-
hibits, consisting of nearly 2,4OO octave
pages in double column, nonpareil type;
the catalogue is made part of the report.

A SPECIAL rate on canned and pickle

A SPECIAL rate on canned and picked
meat as a result of the horse meat in
dustry established IN Portland, Ore, has
been made to eastern points by the rail-
roads. The Oregon Railway and Navi-
CATION Company, in connection with the
Union Pacific system, Great Northern
railway and the Northern Pacific has
issued an amendment to the east bound
north Pacific coast tariff for this purpose.
The new tariff applies equally to all
eastern points. The rate established is
81 per 100 pounds in carloads of "a, 1000
pounds minimum weight. A radical re-
duction of nearly 100 per cent is made.
The present rate on canned meats is $1.85
to Chicago and $2.1O to New York. The
new rate is effective August 2.

THOSE farmers, gardeners and others
who have been accustomed in the past
to receive packets of seeds from the gov
eminent will miss the consignments after
this year, for the seed division of the
department of agriculture will be abol-
ished on October 1. Secretary Morton
has issued an order stating that the
practice Of distributing seeds broadcast
at government expense will be discon-
tinued during the fiscal year 1895 and
1896, and that the services of the en-
ployes engaged II that work will not be
required after October 1. Secretary
Morton's action is based on a recent
decision of Mr.. Olney, then attorney
general, regarding the class Of seed pur-
chased by the department. The latter
held in effect that the secretary of agri-
culture was empowered to purchase only
those seeds described in section 527 Of
the revised statutes, viz: Rare and
uncommon to the country, or such as
a be made more profitable by frequent
changes from one part of our own
country to another" Under this official
construction all the bids for furnishing

the new tariff law. AS respects manu-
featured wooden goods, the Anerican
markets will probable be more generally
invaded in the future than they have
been up to this time under the new law.
The May statement shows imports of
more than 100000 worth of manu-
featured woolens, against but little over
s50O,0O0 worth during May, 1894. The
heaviest increase in the lines of manu-

PROFESSOR MULHAL1, fellow of the
Statistical society, and one of the ablest
of them, says in the North American
Review that the increase of wealth in
the United States amounts to s7,OOO,O 900
a day, which, counting Sundays, foots
up more than $500, 100000 annually.
A nation of such productive capacity
ought to be able to pay it's running ex-
penses without borrowing of it's neigh
bors, says the New York Tribune. But,
since the democrats came into power, it
has not done so, and is running further
behind, and getting deeper in debt day
by day. 1t shows what bad politics and
a bad policy will do for the most pros
porous country, and ought to reconcile
the democrats to a long term of retire.
ment, Whether it does or not, it is
being prepared for them, and they will
be compelled to accept it, no matter
what their inclinations. A term or two
of good republican administration will
bring things back to their normal stand
ard of prosperity. A country making
money at the rate of 100000 a day
has no business to be in financial straits
Dr. have it's Industries benumbed or par
alyzed. Only the most stupid and be-
nighted management could bring it to
this pass, and that is what the demo-
Gratis has given it in fuller measure than
even their adversaries ever dreamed of.

The substitution of electric for hors,

The substitution of electric for horse
power in transportation is the theme of
a pleasant and instructive discourse in
the Philadelphia Press. To show that
the trolley has routed the horse in a lit
tie less than three years, the Press cites
these statistics: In 1890 this country
had on it's farms and ranches 100000
horses, worth about $978,0O0,O00. By
1892 the number of these horses had
risen by 100000, and they had increased
in value to $1,000, 10000 Last January
there we're on farms and ranches $685.
318 horses, worth only S576, 730,580. In
three years the farmers and horse breed
ers have lost about S424,0 900 in horse
values, and in the same time about
S400,O00,OO0 of electric railroads have
been equipped and constructed.

A PoRT1oN of the army was not paid
for June, 1896, as a result of the failure
of the last congress to make sufficient
appropriation for the salaries of officers
and enlisted men. Unless the next con-
gress takes some steps to obviate it there
will be a similar story the latter part of
the present fiscal year, but on a larger
scale. Last years deficiency was $751;
900, and an estimate made at the war
department shows there will be a $780,
600 deficiency in the pay of the army for
the present fiscal year unless the next
congress sets matters straight. The war
department has been compelled to sus-
pend payments of the salaries of the
officers and enlisted men at many from
tier posts, especially in the departments
of the Platte and Texas. Il

to work a radical and highly beneficial
change in the system of fighting fire.
Instead of working at a distance with
straight streams, firemen, by using the
ball nozzle, can enter burning build
ings and work a close range, thus not
only doing more effective work, but
averting to a considerable extent the
serious damage to interior property, and
in many cases this system will enable
fremen to save the lifes of inmates of
burning buildings.
