have made no more impression on the
harvested grain than the old-fashioned

is yet threshed.
Estimating from the transportation fig

roads a solid year to haul away the grain.

COMMENT OF THE PRESS,
Our Petty Tyrauuics.

Chicago Times-Herald: IAN article
called The Petty Tyrants Of America In
the last North American embodies these
remarks: The Frenchman honestly be-
l!eves himself to be the only truly civil
lied inhab.tant Of the globe, the English
man thinks he Is the only moral one, and
L have no doubt that the American fat
ters himself that he Is the freest. That
this view is utterly mistaken, and that
the American is a slave to petty tyran-
MES which neither Frenohman nor an
Englishman would stand for u moment
our censor goes on to prove And in many
cases he is exactly right. Suffering from
excruciating heat, bearing meekly the in
dignities of the youth who wakes you
from refreshing nap to inform you that
he has laid magazine on your lap. or a
sample of hickory nut; submitting to
'pen.tentiary' rules In hotels such as:
You shall be hungry from 8 to 10 a. M,
from 4 to 3 p. M, and from to y. M:
obeving meekly the lady waitress who,
holding up her finger In the dining room.
does not allow you to tarry to speak to a
friend on your solemn march, far from
everybody. to your lonely seat; all these
are easily recognized as a few Of the
smaller ills We resgnedly bear. We do,
as a nation, put up with all sorts Of liber-
ties which we ought to resent. There is
no reason why an American should have
half the affrOnts he meekly bears put
upon him by uncivil public servants every
day."

The Defenders Victory.

While to landSmen the clean VIC
tory of the American cup-defender on
Saturday. over the British yacht. Val
kyrie, Is significant mainly In a sentl-
mental sense, as indicative of the gen.
eral superiority of Brother Jonathan's
democratic institutions over the effete
traditions OF the old world, 1t is by no
means without practical value. The
yacht is to aquatic sports what the
trained race horse Is to land sports;
and the nation which surpasses In
either Is not likely to lag behind In
the more prosaic competitions of busi-
ness or diplomacy.
Saturdays victory does not assure
American ownership of the cup; for
there are four more races to be run.
But in view of the fact that the De-
tenders triumph was won In Valkyre
weather. there does not seen to be
much reason to doubt the final out
come. When the battle shall have end
ed, it will be in order to move for a
needed modification of present yacht
models. which are needlessly gigantic
in their dimensions.
One cheerful fact In connection with
the presidential outlook Is that of all
the Republican candidates, not one Is
unfit

A Home Thrust,

Our policy Of partiality for Spain In
that country's assault upon Cuba is re-
ceiving some pretty keen rebukes these
days. Very trenchant, we must say,
Is this portion Of a manifesto lately is
sued by Delegate Palma. who repre-
sents in this country the cause Of the
Cuban revolutionists:
1t is sad. very sad to contemplate the
struggle for the freedom Of an oppressed
American people In the very heart OF free
America, and see them aba ndoned to Their
fate, without u friend to extend to them
helping hand. As for the United States
the soul OF freedom. the refuge Of the
oppressed and the asylum for the disn-
herited of the world-l consider It a mis-
fortune that they are obliged, under the
excuse OF international law. to witness
such repugnant scenes as that which took
place ut Penn's Grove. A score Of Cuban
patriots, most Of them youths Of the best
families-doctors. lawyers. property own
ers-were chased like u band OF robbers.
caught and imprisoned for the alleged
crime OF intending to start for Cuba to
join those who are fighting there for the
same cause the American colonies fought
for in the last century-the cause of in
dependence and liberty. 1t should be re-
mcmbered that II at that time Lafayette

stead of effectively helping the American
colonists, had Interpreted the laws of neu-
tralty as the United States government
now does. it is likely that the birth Of the
first republic In the world OF Columbus
would have taken place much later, II at
all.
This Is manifestly a home thrust.
We do not see how 1t can be parried.
The cause of the revolving Cubans is
literally the cause of freedom and JUS

sympathy which 1t, as a nation, lacks.
The spectacle Is shameful one, which
In future years will cause many an
American to blush.

In Defence Of the Trolley.

Now that the trolley as an implement
Of progress seems about to be discard
ed, in the large cities at least, in favor
Of the storage battery or the under
ground conduit, some one has deemed
II not too late to point out the fact that
the trolley has been greatly misrepre-
sented In the press. Apart from It's
helpfulness to sanitary purposes, in en-
abling the overcrowded poor OF our
stuffy cities to get out into country air
and sunshine at small cost, the trolley,
according to this defender whose ar
ticle Is seen In the Chicago Record, Is
not half so dangerous to life and limb
as 1t has been credited with being. We
append the reasons:
''When the trolley traffic is compared
with the death rate on the great steam
roads, the proportion Is astOnishingly
in favor Of the widely denounced troll
ley. This is the more notable as the
steam roads have their tracks guarded
from the intrusion Of pedestrians to a
great extent. Yet. in spite of the ele-
walton Of the crossings at the more
dangerous points. the adoption Of the
block signal system and other elaborate
and ingenious precautions for the pro-
lection Of life, the New York Central
railroad reports one death for every
5000 passengers which 1t carries; the
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western,
one death to every 67,OOO; the New
York, Lake Erie and Western, one
death to every 10000. II the trolleys
OF any city made q death rate like that
there would be q riot in the city until
the cars were removed from the streets
In brooklyn. where the trolley death
rate is relatively high, the proportion
is only one in every 3.135.00O persons
carried. Yet no one hears anything
about tho Central juggernaut' or the
Erie juggernaut.' There is good tra-
ditionai warrant for giving the prince
Of darkness his due. and these figures
may be borne in mind when unlimited
denunciation Of the trolley is in prog.
cess"
Yet after oil, this proves nothing, In
asmuch as practical test has. demon
strated that even safer results In rapid
transit can be obtained by the use Of
Asss primitive methods Of propulsion.
The great trouble with the trolley ID it,

Women and the Church.

Another Methodist conference.-the
Central German, of Ohio-has decided.
by large majority, not to elect women
as delegates to the general conference.
We are not informed as to the reasons
advanced for this action, If, indeed.
reasons there We're. But the incident
in no wise disturbs our faith that wo-
man will yet acquire the same showing
of equal justice In the church that she
Is rapidly securing in the secular pro.
fessions and vocations long monopO-
lized by man.
When we consider the overwhelming
debt that organized Christianity today
owes to womankind, and remember that
there is scarcely phase Of religious
endeavor which could survive for a day
the sudden subtraction Of feminine
energy, patience and tact, our wonder
grows that opposition should anywhere
arise to the sending Of women as dele.
gates to the supreme tribunals Of
ecclesiastical authority. Who Is 1t that
today sustains stheProtestant churches? !?
Who devises the ways and means
whereby the financial requirements
are met? Who, in fine weather and In
storm, never fails to attend the prayer
meeting, the Sunday evening service,
the church auxiliary functions, the for
eign and home mission meetings? Who
superintends the myriad details of re-
ligious and philanthropic work? Man?
Not a bit OF 1t. Woman. devoted wo-
man. And yet, the masculine bene-
ficiaries of her unselflshness seem in
many instances to have combined to
deprive her of participation in the con-
spicuOus rewards.
These are days Of rapid progress in
religion not less than in business, poll
tics and art. The spirit Of unrest Is
abroad, knocking down old abuses and
setting up new standards. Con-
sclentious opponents of woman suffrage
In the councils of the church will one
day admit their mistake, when they
shall have seen the actual demonstra-
tion Of the good that will follow wo-
mans ecclesiastical liberation.
As the case stands now, Senator
Quay's presidential preference obvious
ly lies between Reed and Mckinley,
with the accent strong on Reed.

nois indicate that woman Is capable
Of projecting into our political contests
an element OF dignity and cleanliness
without suffering any impairment Of
the womanly attributes that are the
adornment Of her sex. Whatever We
may think OF the proposition to ex-
tend universal suffrage to women 1t
must be admitted that their decent
