There is general feeling at the
east that the Cleveland admins
tration is largely responsible for
the late trouble in Hawaii, for had
it not been known that it was in
hearty sympathy with the Royal
lists there would have been no

To prove Crowley guilty of some
of the counts in the indictment
would show constructively at least
such dishonesty of purpose as to
prejudice the minds of fair men
against him when his contest
comes up in the National House of
Representatives, and as the De-
mocracy Of Texas can be fully de-
pended on not to give the Repub-
lican confession any trump cards it
goes without saying that Crowley
will not be adjudged guilty Of any
thing that is alleged against him.

There will soon be reversal Of
that policy that withdraws Ameri-
can ships from Hawaiian waters
thereby giving aid and comfort to
the revolutionists, in that it en-
courages the moral support that is
given by the presence of warships
favoring the monarchists.

Reading the proceedings Of the
state legislature one is deeply i'm
pressed with the fact that if both
houses would adjourn and leave
matters to the Judiciary commit
tees it would serve all the ends OF
legislation, decrease expenses and
lower the rate of fool measures
that may be passed. There is not
to be found any where a more
necessary evil that the average
legislature. Perhaps it may be
doubted whether it should be call
ed a necessary evil, or an evil
necessity.

Houston Post makes a special
plea for the Tennessee state steal
ers. The Post is a partisan paper
Of the fanatical kind, perniciously
active and ready to cry out for its
party, right or wrong. The con-
trast between the Houston Post
and the Memphis Avalanche, a
staunch Democratic paper, is we'll
worth noting The Avalanche is
more concerned for the good name
Of the state than for the consum-
nation of a party triumph to
which it is not entitled The Post
is more concerned for the success
Of party fraud than it is for the
issue OF decency in politics and the
melting out of exact justice to all
The Democratic party is to be con-
, graduated on the number Of prom
inent Democratic papers that have
more honesty than the Post. II
would be means Of political grace
! for the Post to read the gospel o.
! Democratic honesty and decency
as preached by the Avalanche.

MR.. TINKLE AS A TEACHER.

"Dont study your lessons out loud
that way" said Mr.. Tinkle, sharply.
"You make me nervous.
Il can't help it, replied young Moses,
with sniff. 'I've got dreadful hard
lessons, and our teacher is cross as can be. !"
Hard lessons. NONSENSE" responded
Mr. Tinlle You have never been
taught the proper way to study. Once
learned thoroughly, you should never for
get anything. Now, there's your mother;
she can do a sum in algebra as easily as

'I'm not sure of that, Archibald,' oh

"Years are nothing" retorted Mr. Tin
kle sternly. 81 quit school thirty years
ago, and yet twice two are four, twice
three are six, twice four are eight, and Sc
on | knew the whole table. Then
there's history. George Washington COM
manded the Continental Army during the
Revolutionary War, and he was our Presi.
dent, serving two terms"
"Who was our second President?'
asked Moses.
Jefferson, who also wrote the Constitu.
ton of the United States. Thomas jeff
erson, my son, was one of the CREATES"
"But he wasn't the second President, .
said Moses, with faint chuckle
"Wasn't eh?'
NO, sir. John Adams was second, ant
then came Jefferson"
"Hum! 1t seems to me that's the way
studied it, but Of course-However, it's &
small matter. The Revolutionary, Wal
was begun at Lexington, and the Declare
ton of Independence was made in Phila
delphia in 1776 You see, it is no trouble
to recall these historical facts"
"When and where did CORVALLIS surrer
der?" asked Moses, after a glance at the
| book
"Why, at-let me seat Saratoga, in
1777 or 177s.
"Oh, non' exclaimed Moses, trump
hantly. You're thinking of Burgoyne.
1t was at Yorktown in isl, that Corn
wallis surrendered"
GLOW could you made such a mistake,
Archibald?" said Mrs. Tinkle, reproach-
fully.

know the main facts, that's enough. Now

"I'm awful poor in that" admitted
Moses specially in mental arithmetic.
'That comes from lack of concentration
of thought" said Mr.. Tinkle, kindly.
"Mathematics is founded on reason, and
you have but to exercise your reasoning
powers and any problem is easy"
"Tain't to me-" groaned the boy. "For
instance, if 81 oranges cost 30 cents, how
much will nine oranges cost?"
"Now, see that Lucyn said Mr.. Tin
kle, to his wife. GLOW simple that is
and yet he can't see it, If u oranges cost
80 cents 9 oranges will cost 80 cents, Or
one-third of 90 because 9 is one-third of
81"
''Quite plain" assented Mrs. Tinkle.

my boy"
Moses looked over his book for a few
minutes, and then propounded the follow
ing:
"a balloon rose in the air, and then fell
one-third of the distance; then rose one
fourth of the distance it was from the
ground; then fell one fifth of the distance
it was from the ground; then fell one

feet from the ground. How high was it
when it was at its greatest height"
whats that? " demanded Mr.. Tinkle.
"Read that again.
Moses did so, with great dstinctness.
"Ifum! Let me see. One-iifth plus one

All, see! The balloon was then four hun

| Mr.. Tinkle laid the arithmetic on the
table and glared fXedly at it for three
minutes, while Mrs. Tinkle and her son
waited, in respectful attention.
Presently he got out pencil and began
to figure on the margin of the book, and
| finally he closed it, with bang.
"What miserable stuff he declared,
angrily.
"There ought to be key to this book,

''No it isn't, pa" said Moses promptly.

"Well, then, If you can do your exam

buried his face in the newspaper.

THE CONDITION. OF TRADE.
What X. G. Dun Il Co.'s Weekly Review
SayR


NEW YORK, May 1O.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'s review OF trade tomorrow will
say: The event of the week is the des
moralization OF the foreign exchange,
caused by enormous sales of bonds
abroad. Besides sale of $4,000, 600
Manhattan and other railroad bonds
through the syndicate, large purchases
on foreign account have been recorded
for some weeks, SO that the aggregate
probably exceeds $50, O0O,OO since the
sale of governments. Crop prospects
also have greatly improved, and this is
OF still higher Importance as 1t will do
much to determine the character and
volume Of business.
though the gain In greet industries is
retarded by many strikes. Cotton is
lower and receipts, in spite Of familiar
predictions of great line, still exceed
those of 1899. The industries were dis
tinctly gaining when strikes began
which have spread quite widely. Gar
ment workers in several cities and Pc.
cahontRs coke workers are still out,
with several thousand wooden workers
near Providence. Other wooden mills
and the furnace in the Shenango and
Mahoning valleys, which were making
%, QUO tons per week, have stopped, also
the Illinois steel workers, the largest
Western concern. The Amalgamated
Association also proposes to struggle
over new wage scale. Cotton goods
continue strong, mills being we'll en-
ployed, and they hold heavier stocks
than ever OF raw cotton bought at low
prices. The failures this week have
been 227 in the United States against
FOG last near, and "a in Canada against
40 last year.
