Strange September Weather.

The month which ended yesterday
will long be notable for the variety
of its weather. Beginning with aver
age Temperature, there was first sud
den cold spell that sent unacclimated
persons Shivering to their furnaces and
overcoats; then a heated period of eX-
',reme intensity. rivaling at one point
she highest temperature of the summer;
and finally, another relapse into frig-
idity, even more abrupt than the first
one, the effects of which relapse are
not yet exhausted. Persons versed in
meteorological phenomena will find the
official summary of September weather,
as given out by the weather bureau,
more interesting than the most thrill
ing novel. Tt is, in fact, drama of
whirling and imces9ant high pressure
areas. vacuums and storm centers.
juxtaposed in unprecedented combina-
tions which even yet puzzle the savants
who make such things a study
Perhaps the last cold wave is the
more interesting of the two. After the
whirlng vacuums noted by the wealth
er observers along about the 18th as
having their center in the Dakotas had
sauntered away, one going southwark
and the other pursuing northesterly
course toward the great lakes, there
suddenly appeared, far in the north
west, possibly OF Alaskan origin, an
energetic high-pressure area that
brought with 1T hail and snow and frost
In rare abundance. It's course Is thus
eloquently described in the William

from the south and Instantly threw them
up and away beyond the reach OF the feel

In the region about CN aha the temporal

and at Des Motnes 1t fell 81 degrees IN ff-
teen minutes, while the wind there rose
to q velocity of sixty miles an hour IN

this mighty power was making. With

COMMENT OF THE PRESS.
Plea for q Short Campaign.

Rochester Post-Express: at Is clear
tAat the great commercial and manufac-
turing interests of the country demand Il
short presidential campaign, and we think
the politicians of both parties should heed
ths demand. From a political stand
po.nt there is no reason why the cam
paign should be long. The average Amer
lcan citizen does not require SIX months
in which to make up his mind to whom he
wishes to give his vote. The discussion Of
political issues IN this country Is not con-
fined to the middle of presidential years,
but goes on constantly. In the old days,
when there was a lack of telegraphic fa-
elites and when newspapers were few.
political speeches were needed to get the
issues before the people. But now to a
,arge extent the newspapers have taken
the place of the campaign speaker. The
people know what the issues are and are
more determined than ever to do Their
own thinking. Almost the only thing that
q campaign speaker of today can accom-
plish IS to arouse certain degree of en-
thus,asm among the members of his
party. He can help get out the vote but
he rarely makes convert. A short and
energetic campaign Is all that Is really
necessary IN this country now"

As to General Harrison.

After all has been said with reference
to the alleged retirement Of eX-Presi-
dent Harrison as a candidate for re-
nomination, the public appears to stand
just where it stood when the discussion
began. The original assertion that
General Harrison had decided he would
have no show in a convention repre-
senting the party which seven years
ago elected HIM president, and four
years later re-nominated him, was suf-
ficienltly preposterous; but 1t became
more 50 when that amusing person,
John C. New, in one day gave to the
press three separate interviews, each
taking a different view of General Har-
rison's prospects and intentions.
From amidst the idle rumors and i'm
pertinent vaporings of the episode,
however a few facts rise clearly into
prominence. 1t is certain, at last, that
General Harrison is not standing in
anybody's way in the matter of the
presidential nomination. He is not a
appointed If he is not again chosen.
To ibe sure, he would not scorn the sub
Stantially unanimous call of his party,
should 1t ask for his nominal ton as an
expedient of party pacification. but he
is not working toward such a, result,
neither are his true friends. In other
words, his attitude, in this affair. is
wholly passive. He has already done
his duty as a public servant, and can
well afford to pass the remainder Of
his days as a private citizen, just as he
could. with equal propriety, respond to
another demand from his party should
it come to him without hint or personal
solicitation.
The idea that because General Harri-
son does not grow garrulous at every
impertinent beck of the Y-umor-mong-
ers who serve as the parasites of the
great, he is therefore deep in plots and
straItagems looking toward his own re-
election is as ridiculous as 1t is un-
complimentary. Nothing in the ex-
presidents character gives plausibili.y
to the stories which portray him as q
jealous and an inordlnately ambitious
man, ready to sacrifice anybody and
everything that interrupts his progress.
Tt would do the Republican press no
harm and 1t would do the truth q great
deal of good to desist from this mawk-
ish view of a man who in every civic as
well as military relation has uniformly
disclosed the instincts of the patriot
and the admirable qualities of the cul-
tured gentleman.

Democratic tariff bill as 1t stands Is
bad enough, having already forced the
nation to sell sl62,OOO.OOO of interest
bearing bonds, in order to meet the
running expenses of the government;
but If 1t had been enacted as at first
framed, the deficit would in all proba-
bility not have been covered by the
sale of s3OO,OOO,OOO interest-bearing se-
curities.
Mr.. Trenholm is unduly impressed
with Grover Clevelands greatness.
We should have poor opinion of
Americans as class If we did not be-
leve that in every populated township
ir the educated sections of the country
there are dozens of men just as capa-
ble as patriotic and as trustworthy in
emergency as is Mr.. Cleveland; and
hence just as capable as he was of
becoming president of the United
States.

An Excited EuIOo;cf

w. L. Trenholm, now president of the
American Surety company of New
York, but comptroller of the treasury
during the first Cleveland adn1inistra-
ton. has reached a conclusion "If the
coming congress shall neglect to pass
some practical legislation for the relief
OF the finances of the government" he
says. the people of the country, with
out regard to party, will insist upon
the denomination of Mr.. Cleveland, and
they will see to 1t that he is reelected"
And then he adds: 1T Is not question
of party success, or party failure, but
1t is a question whether the business
Interests of the entire country shall
be preserved and the credit of the gov
ernment maintained"
1t is possible that Mr.. Trenholm does
not know that the embarrassed condi-
tion of the treasury is due to a "ques-
tlon of party failure"--of Democratic
party failure-but IL he Is thus ig-
norant, he is without companionship.
Everybody else who knows anything
concerning affairs knows that the gov
eminent revenues were looted by Mr.
Cleveland's express command. He
wanted revenue measure passed
which, had 1t become the law as origi-
nally framed, would have placed the
finances OF the nation in almost twice
as bad plight as they are In today.
He even wanted this SO earnestly that
he hurled epithets at the Democrats
who refused to go to the revolutionary
extent indicated in the unmodified Will
son bill; and declined to sign their
amendments, but instead let them be-
come law by executive default. The

Shorten the Canvass.

Colonel Clarkson, the eminent Iowa
prised to note the widespread interest
aroused by the proposition to shorten
the next presidential campaign to two
months; and his surprise is evidently
commingled with alarm. "As a matter
of fact" he says, "all of our presiden-
tial campaigns are very short, none
of them lasting more than month or
six weeks. OF course the executive
committee of the national committee
may be in session or must be In ses-
sion several months perfecting details
of preliminary nature. There are
about $4,000 polling places in the coun-
,ry, and organization is necessary in
order TO give proper attention to the
entire country. But all preliminary
work is done without ostentatlon, and
the business world has practically no
knowledge of the existence of the eXecu-
tive committee until the campaign be-
gins about Oct. 1, and then the political
pot boils continually until the fight
is over. | do not think business inter-
ests are disturbed by political cam
paigns, except where business interests
are directly threatened, as they were
in 1892. But the Political campaign of
1896 will be a campaign for the pro-
lection of American industries and for
the advancement of the interests of our
workingmen, and the prospect of the
return of the Republican party to power
can produce no other than good and
beneficial influence upon the business
world"
We do not anticipate that the cam
paign year. ending as it will in a rous-
ing Republican victory, will seriously
unsettle business. 1t is likely to have
directly the contrary effect. But Col
onel Clarkson is mistaken in the asser-
ton that a sX-months' canvass is not
detrimental to business. Colonel Clark
son, being a newspaper owner, may
gauge other lines of business by that
with which he is personally familiar, in
which event he is deceived. Campaigns
help the newspapers because they cause
all classes of people to read. But they
just as certainly hurt the staple in
dustries, and the learned professions, for
these require calm minds and undivided
attention. The hooks of any merchant
will reflect the inroads of presidential
years Only a small percentage of busi-
ness men escape direct and considerable
loss. And If Colonel Clarkson will
make inquiries among his merchant
friends in Des Moines we think he will
discover that he is mistaken.
The Republican party, as the party
of business prosperity, should set the
example of ordering a short campaign.
The whole amount of 1t seems to be
