A Business" Government.

This is "business" administration,
but it is paying very little attention to
tie business Of the government. The
absence OF business methods IS more no.
ticeable in the west than elsewhere, but
all over the country the slip-shod way
OF carrying on the judicial machinery
OF the government is seen. The specta-
Gle OF federal courts shutting down for
want Of funds to keep them going is
one which is disgraceful IN the highest
degree, and demonstrates, il nothing
else does, the utter incompetency Of the
administration for the work OF manay-
ing the finances and routine business Of
the country. 1t is not because the coun-
try is bankrupt, though the treasury is
a little hard pressed funds just at pres.
ent, but it seems to be more matter OF
inefficient clerical administration OF rou-
tine business, loose methods of running
things and failure to grasp the duty
the government owes to the people 10
whose interest 10 ls supposed to be or
ganized. -.
When the: country was in the throes
OF agreat rebellion the Republican party
was great enough to prevent 1t from re-
pudiatIng the obligations it incurred in
putting down the war. To day, in times
OF peace, with the country just recovering
from the effects OF another great war-a
war upon the industries OF the country
the Democratic: party is locking the
doors OF the federal courts. sending fed.
eral juries home. giving the federal Of
ficers its l. o.. Us for work performed
and bringing the government into dis
grace with the entire, people. The peo-
pie can hardly wait till Republican
administration is returned to power.
1t is not claimed that the United
States courts have been extravagantly
managed, or that their expenses have
been excessive The whole responsible
lty for the disgracefnl situation rests
with the last congress, which systemat-
lcally stinted the appropriations for
the judicial departments.

FoUR FIFrns OF the people. yea, nine
tenths, have been at heart 10 favor OF
restoring silver ever since the crime of
lS13.--Senator Stewart at the Memphis
silver convention. And yet this very same
senator stood in the senate chamber,
and voted in favor OF this '.crime of
1873" lie wants free and unlimited
coinage Of silver at l6 to l, but he wants
his mortgages, interest and principal
payable in gold coin." He wants all
assessments and dividends on his silver
mine stocks payable in gold coin" II
the senator is to be allowed the prlvil-
age OF taking 50 cents worth OF silver
bullion to the United States mint and
receive 100 cents therefor. why not grant
the right to the farmer to take his wheat
to a government store house and receive
81 90 per bushei for every busbel SO de-
posted. II is just as consistent and
just as equitable.

MAXIMUM, MINIMUM. i

The rainfall for the first 20 days Of
June amounts to AL inches, which is
just O.41 inches less thnn June OF last
year. 1t is also 0.49 inches less than the
normal.
Since the rains have set in vegetation
has made rapid growth. Pastures have
fully recovered. Some hay will be made,
grass and weeds are crowding the useful
crops hard, as very little time has been
given for cultivation between showers.
Those who had their corn properly cul-
tivated before the rains are not hurried,
others are.
The oat crop is steadily improving and
will probably be up to the average.
Wheat has been injured by rust.

THE HUNGER FoR LAND.

Forty years ago substantially all
the country lying west of the Mis-
souri, river was imbraced within
the public domain. Arabic land
was as free as the water in the
streams that coursed across it.
The supply seemed inexhaustible,
and the government found it neces-
sary to hold out special induce
ments to lure settlers into the far
ther west, in the Pacific Northwest
going so far as to denote $40 acres
to single settler and his wife,
Recently we heard the exciting
spectacle of nearly 100000 racing
and struggling to acquire reserve
just thrown open to entry. And
the land in this reserve is of a
character that few would have
taken quarter Of century ago.
Out of this spectacle little can be
d avn that is not tinged with a
melancholy aspect. If the arabic
land is not quite exhausted, the
time is certainly near when it will
be, A government which has given
with lavish hand for more than q
century can give no more forever.
Henceforth it must live entirely off
its people. Henceforth the deserv-
ing homeseeker must make terms
with the spectators and the land
grant railroads, and the surplus
population must settle down to
hard conditions of tenant life.
There is evolution if not revolu-
ton ahead. A nation which has
never known landed want, which
has stimulated and fostered the
moving and the developing spirit of
its surplus population and its bor-
der elements, can not face right
about to the conditions long ruling
in Europe without suffering incon-
venieNce and trouble. The United
States having long fostered the
la d seeking appetite mnst now ex
pect to encounter some distress in
dealing with that appetite Either
immigration must be checked, the
people educated to acceptance of
the changed conditions, or the pre-
vailing system of the land tenure
will have to be modified or revolu-
tionized. The American spirit is
not a tenant spirit 1t Graves
free land title, and to satisfy that
craving will hardly quibble at an
undertaking having for its purpose
restrictions upon the ownership of
land The American people are
not likely to make one bite of the
Henry George cherry, but they
may be expected to do considerable
nibbling within the next quarter of
a century.

HOW TO STUDY PR0PERL Y

Study is like dinner. The vi
ands must be well chosen and eat
en- sloyly, not devoured, then well
turned over in the mental stomach
for awhile until with ease and com.
fort they are perfectly digested and
furnish nutrinent to the brain.
Most students study without
thought, which is like eating with
out digesting, Others read merely
as fad and soon forget all that
they may have learned,
The most satisfactory method of
study is the digestive. 1t is the
thorough one-the one that gives
strength to the brain. Take the
subject you are studying. Read
few pages, as the case may be, then
put the book down and think on
what you have reak. Turn it
about in your mind from every
standpoint. Do not accept it inn
mediately. Argue for aud against
in your mind, In other words,
masticate it. You need not be at
your leisure to do this. Do it in
your walks, in your idle moments,
at any time. When you have sat
isfied yourself on the subject go on
with little more in the same way,
In short time you will find your
self a more thorough student than
if you had read all at a sitting,
The best educated man in the end
is theman who learns slowly, but
surely.-New York Advertiser.

Senator Mcbride is the first ma

himself upon very greatly. He is

The Oldest Man On Earth.

The oldest man in the world is citi-
zen of of Bogota, in the Republic of San
Salvador. This new Methuselah, says
the Chicago Tribune, declares that he is
one hundred and eighty years old, and
it would seem he flatters himself, for
neigh bors give the assurance that he is
older than he says he is.
He is half-hreed named Michael
Soils, whose existence was revealed to
DR.. Louis Hernandez by one of the old
est planters in the locality, who as a
child knew Soils as centenarian. They
have found in l7l2 his signature among
those OF persons who contributed to the
building of a Franciscan convent which
exists near San Sebastian His skin is
like parchment, his long hair Of the
whteness OF snow envelops his head
like turhan, and his look is so keen
that it made disagreeable impression
on the doctor.
Interrogated by the doctor, he answer
complaisantly that his great age was
due to his regular mode OF living, and to
his never giving up to any excess of any
sort whatever.
