Only One of Its Kind.

The application for a charter for the
Pssssvsns Memorial Home, for the care OF
epilsptics, which was made in court IN Pitts
burg, few days ago, makes the report so
long cherished by the rate Rev. DR.. Passa-
want, and for which q sum was found
among his papers as a nucleus, TACT
The institution will be located at Rochest-
er, and will be the only one of the kind IN
America.
Tho board for the home was elected sew
eral months ago, but the application for a
charter was delayed until three deacon
esses to run the home could be secured
from Bielefeld, Germany, where the hrst
and greatest epileptic colony 10 the world
is situate. The hospital authorities were
unable to furnish the deaconesses as nine
had just been sent to England, where a
colony was about to be formed. The
Rochester institution will have to obtain
desconesses from the Milwaukee Home,
or obtain other nurses. 1t will be opened
in May.
While the sole capital of the institution
nc crescent is about $1,000, any required
sum is in sight. In addition, the grounds
and buildings of the former Lutheran Or
phanage, al Zelenople, will be utilized
There are 60 acres of land. and two build
ings comprising % or 80 apartments
Applications have already been received
from Texas, Illinois, West Virginia and
other States, for admission to the home,
which will be graded according to the So
cisl position occupied IN the world Dy the
uufOrtunate, who Can enter the home as a
free or pay resident, or for nominal board.
Only women and children will be received
AT present, and they will be occupied at
outdoor work, like gardening. etc. II will
De run much like that at Bielefeld, Ger
many, and sill be distinctly a home for
the retirement of epileptics - TO relieve
their friends ot their care, and enc"urag-
ing them to a useful life, rather than a
hospital.
In this respect it differs from the only
other Institution for epileptics in the coun
try, near Pomeroy, Ohio. The latter is a
State hospital for experimental study, and
represents all that has heretofore been
done for the 100000 epileptics in the
United States.

Dishonesty the Nations Peril.

Anybody who has been but casual oo-
server of events in this country must have
been forcibly impressed with the recent
growing tendency to dishonesty and down.
rieht villsiny in politics, official life, cor
porate responsibility and private business
obligations. There may be rs many hon.
est men in all these relations to-day as at
sny period of the country's history, but 1t
looks as if there were certainly an aug
menting number of rank rascals.
This is seen first in the almost entire
lack of honesty, ,hononand patriotism among
politicians, the men who run the political
machinery, from the township Organise
tions TO state and national conventions.
Politics has become q word to which no.
body but an ignorsmus or sophisticated
Office seeker attributes any element but
that of dishonesty and fraud. II means =
scheme OF designing men to get the omoes
and thereby the chances to deceive anu
rob the people. In the elder days OF the
republic men who sought office claimed
and were accorded some degree OF honor
and .of responsibility to their oonstit'
uencies. They were to large degree, al
least, actusted by patriotic desire to nc
quit themselves so as TO be considered pa
rriotic citizens, with o good name TO pre-
serve and hand down TO posterity. Pro-
badly that feeling and motive Ii somewhat
rife in the rural communities at the pre-
sent time; but in the larger cities, il any oi
il remains, it is neither conspicuous nor
emphatic. Men now seek Office 'for wnat
there is in it" to them, and with small re
gard to the good of their constituents.
They connive and combine to get the sup
port of the worst elements in the communi-
ty, because those elements represent the
greatest number OF votes. They cslois
and tool the ignorant, the debased, and
the victims Of demagogy for the sake oi
votes, ana the selfish partisans among the
so-called better classes fall into line 80 as
to be on the winning side. Officials thus
elected cannot be expected to administer
public affairs with much reference to any
thing but their own selfish interests. IL
cannot be expected that they will be much
better than their constituencies. The ef-
feet of this debssed motive in politics is to
prostitute legislation TO partisan ends,
which are usually those OF compromise
with oliques which conspire to rob the peo-
pie and fstten the conspirators. 1t also
enables lot of mediocre or low grade. un-
principled men to get into Office, and thus
the body politic is permsated with dishon-
esty and what lie almost ss bad, brsinless,
conscienceless incompetency. IN. W. Lum

approximates at lis, 900, 900 BUSH
els. The acreage, he says, is II
or IS per cent less this year than
it was last, as the farmers of the

The St. Paul Pioneer Press has

forecasts of the results of farm

it gives some approximate figures
as to acreage and yield, obtained
from the best authorities to be
had.
Col. G. D. Rogers, secretary of
the Minneapolis Chamber of Com
merce, regarded as among the
best authorities i'll the country,
furnishes figures that are at least
very suggestive. The following
estimates are given by him COW

Aberdeen News: Elevator and
grain men generally throughout
the country freely advance the
opinion that the market for bar
ley is likely to be poor this year,
especially during the early fall.
Until some time in September
there will be no demand what
ever, Since the brewers will not
buy until the grain has been
thoroughly cured. For these
reasons dealers strongly advise
that barley be stacked and allow
ed to cure before being threshed,
as otherwise it is liable to heat
and color in the bin. Later in
the season, they say, barley o1
good quality, stack cured, may
command a fair price.
