We enjoy the arena now, but not with
the same enchanted zest as of yore,
We should live for enjoyment as well
as duty and we see no more objection

exhibition, both get our money and
carry it away, but we must spend some

or enjoyment it brings, which is as

"a IT the reports that come from the scene
OF the Indian disturbance in Wyoming be
true the settlers are altogether more to
blame for the outbreak than the Indians.
According to these reports band of In.
dians off on a hunting expedition were
caught by the whites and imprisoned as
violators of the game laws, and, when
they attempted to escape, were shot down
by the whites. Violation of the game
laws is not so serious an offence as to
justify the shooting of men guilty of it,
whether they be white OF red, and if the
killing of these Indian hunters has
aroused the rest of the band to revenge
1t is nothing more than might have been
expected. A strong reason for thinking
that the Bannocks have had some very
strong provocation offered them, aside
from these reports is the fact that they
have always been peaceably disposed to-
ward the whites and have given very lit
tie trouble in the past. That at this late
day they should suddenly develop a dis
position to murder their white neighbors
and plumber and burn their homes is
highly improbable unless some very
strong proyocation has been given them.

The proposition to place an export
bounty on wheat in order to help the
farmer will give the free silver advocate a
chance to suggest that it is the competi-
tion with Indian wheat that is hurting
our wheat raisers in the West They will
say with a certain amount of force that
the Indian wheat raiser has tremen-
dous advantage in that he pays wages in
deprecated silver, while the American
wheat raisers pay wages in appreciated
gold. The remedy he will offer will not
be an export duty, but the restoration of
silver to it's former place as money
metal That remedy might doubtless be
applied safely by international agree
ment, but for the United States to at
tempt to apply it alone would bring a
train of evils greater than the one it is
sought to cure.

DUTIES AND BoUNrIEs.

The Bath Board of Trade has given its
endorsement to the proposition to put an
export bounty on American staples ex-
ported In American bottoms The line Of
reasoning adopted by those who spoke in
favor of the scheme-Hon. Arthur Sew
all especially-was that inasmuch as the
policy of this government was protective,
and inasmuch as protective duties could
not affect the price of the great staples
which are fixed in the Liverpool market,
and inasmuch as the farmer is just as
clearly entitled to protection as the man
ufacturer, therefore it was only fair fol-
the government to offer bounty to the
farmer on his exported products. Our
manufactured goods are protected from

the competition of goods manufactured in
foreign countries by duties which are
neither high enough to be prohibitive or
high enough to make it impossible to sell
the foreign product at a lower price than
the home product. But from the nature
OF the case it is impossible by any such
process as this to protect the farmer on
| articles which he exports and which of
course enter into competition with SINH
lar products of other parts of the world.
The home market, can be secured to the
farmer by the same process that it is
secured to the manufacturer, but a large
part of his staple products go abroad,
and the price for which he must sell
these staples at home is fixed by the
price that prevails abroad He asks
therefore that the protection he helps give
to the manufacturer be given to him by
means of a bounty which the government
shall pay.him on every. bushelj of wheat
exported. There is distinction
between protective duty and bounty.
A bounty is so much money taken out of
some people to be paid to other people.
1t is that at the beginning and it is
always that. A protective duty may be
that at the start. That is to say, when
a protective duty is first laid it may en-
hance the price of the article on which it
is laid by its amount But in almost every
case this increase of price begets so much
competition, that soon the consumer is
citing the protected articles at as low a
price and perhaps lower, than if the
duty had not been imposed. About all
the protective duty does in the long run
is to secure to the manufacturer the
home market And this is an advantage
to the farmer because it gives employ
ment to labor. and makes a market for
great many of his products 4 whose
price is fixed here But the case
is different with bounty. Compe-
tition does not diminish the burden of
bounty, it rather enhances it, for the
greater the amount of the products on
which the government pays bounty the
more money it will have to pay. 1t is not
correct to:treat bounty and protective
duty as the same thing, nor logical to
argue that because the latter is given to
one class the former ought to be given to
another

The overwhelming defeat of free silver
in the Iowa Democratic primaries is sur
prising, for from the beginning of the sill
yer agitation Iowa has been pretty well
saturated with it. The people of Iowa
too, are largely engaged in agriculture
and have been very severely affected by
the fall of prices of the great staples. A
very strong temptation was before them
to try the experiment of free silver coin
age, for they were in a position to argue
that if it didn't do them any good it
could not do them much harm.

The owners of the Defender are said to
be unanimously of opinion that the
lighter and bigger alternative boom pro-
vided for their boat had better be put on,
and the change will probably be made
during the next fortnight. 1t is the pre-
vailing opinion of yachtsmen that the
new yacht can carry more canvas, and
there isslittle doubt that her sail area
will be increased before she meets the
Valkyrie. The main point of discussion
just now is whether the Vigilant is a
faster boat than she was last year and in
1898. Most New York yaehtsmen think
she is They admit that this is mere
theory, but they cling to the belief that
the old cup defender is at least five
minutes better than the boat that defeat
ed Valkyrie II, and perhaps 10 minutes
quicker than she was last year, when she
lost 10 races to Britannia They look
forward to the Goelet cup races next
month to settle the question, when the
Vigilant meets the yachts she vanquished
in the trials of 1898. Should it be shown
then that the Vigilant is no better now
y
say, Valkyrie III must be reckoned a
most dangerous boat, for they add, it
cannot be doubted that she is at least 10
minutes better than Britannia in a 30
mile race in fair sailing breeze such as
enabled her to lead the Prince of Wales S
yacht by nearly 10 over 50-mile course
at a rate of more than II miles an hour ~
MR.. ISELIN TALKS A LITTLE
G. Oliver IselinN in an interview says
" Yes, we are all Of us fully satisfied with
the Defender. She has fully come up to
our expectations and those of the HERES
hoffs In the two races we have had with
the Vigilant the Defender proved her
superiority in every point of sailing, with
possibly one exception.
In sailing with spinnakers set before
a light wind the Vigilant seems to be
able to hold her own, and possibly to be
tri3e the faster. She ought to be a bit
faster in that respect, however, for her
spread of canvas is much greater than
that of the Defender. and in that kind of
sailing it is the spread of canvas that
tells.
II have seen it stated that the way in
which the Vigilant overhauled us yester-
day just after the start on the first leg of
the course was possibly due to the fact
oait1o ollC Lou q OcUDtI OlOCAO ulleth We ulu,
but | am free to admit that I do not
think so. I think we both got about the
same kind of wind and that the Vigilant
gained on us simply because she carried
more canvas.
In all other points of sailing. how
ever, the Defender clearly showed her
superiority, both when the wind was
light and when it was strong, and her
superiority was so marked as to leave no
doubt as to which is the better boat of
the two. But the races with the Vigilant
can hardly serve to give us a line on
our chances, rfor the Vigilant
has decidedly been much improved, and
is faster boat than she was when on
hauled reaches and in work to windward
In both of these she is undoubtedly
faster than any boat this country has yet
produced. -

Is that man a Pharisee who deliber

spares no pains to let him so under

that is, followers of Christ, we must be

Brotherhood of Man and the Fellow
ship of God, and how all men are equal

Self-consecration is an important
factor in this great problem of self
mastery. Self-knowledge and self-denial
enter IN on the human side, but self
conservation touches the divine side.
There is a divine side, and sadly in
error are sons of genius who neglect or
despise it. We have had men in our
day who stood high in scholarship and
morals, and public esteem and wealth,
but failing to connect their human
weakness with divine power, have
maze most miserable failures
Tennyson says:
"My strength is as the strength of ten
Because my heart is pure.'
Self f-cOnsecratiOn-what word of
power. How it fits into the necessities
of every life. How vital to its success!
Everywhere in life the great, true Ques
ton is not what we gain, but what we
do. On the basis of action are the
everlasting right-hand rewards.
The glory of self-mastery is thought
we do we'll to fix eye and heart upon.
Some poet says:
Real glory springs from the silent conquest of
ourselves,
And without that the conqueror is naught
but the veriest slave"
Many man has conquered armies,
captured citadels, and laid waste cOun-
tries, and himself miserable victim of
his own sins. Alexander, at thirty two,
had conquered the great world-powers
of his day, but he died in drunken de-
bauch after weeping that there were no
more worlds to conquer. Poor man!
There were vaster worlds in himself
unconquered and running to ruinous
waste than he had ever dreamed of ex
listing without.
The young man who has mastered
himself is the manifest fellow in the
group. For Christianity is the honest
cultivation of all the graces of body,
brain and spirit. Christianity is man
illness.
A sacred burden is the life We bear,
Look on it, lift it, bear it solemny;
Fail not for sorrow. falter not for sin,
But on-up, till the goal ye win.
