SACRIFICE OF PUBLIC OPINION.
He Wanted to Come Back to Town So
He Could Eat in Peace.

He was a ford Englishman young
and aristocratic in his manners. His
clothes, however, betrayed very west
ern origin, and his boots showed that
for a long time he had been in an agri-
cultural vicinity.
yes" he said, II have a farm out in
Minnesota and I work hard myself, al
though I am what you might call very
we'll off. I know that the only way to
look after my interests is to look after
them myself, and / get up at 4 o'clock
in the morning and dig around and see
that the plowmen aren't asleep in the
burrows or anything like that
1T feels good to get back to civiliza-
ton, though. 1t isn't the theaters or the
pretty girls or the shops that like, but
it is one feature about city life which
you'd never guess 1t is the only thing
that makes me want to get away from
the farm, and that is that I can have
my meals either with refined people or
by myself. Out in Minnesota on farms
they have the theory that a workman
is as good as his master and sight
better. AS a result the farmer is COM
PEELED to eat his meals with his hands,
and / can tell you that he sees some
great feats in sword swallowing, knife
licking and that sort of thing. When l
first went to Minnesota I wanted to
dine by myself. but the people in the
vicinity almost wanted to lynch me.
They said they didn't want the intro
duction of any feudal system in the
town of Scrappleborough, and all the
workmen wanted to leave. I simply had
to surrender, and now I eat my meals
at table with lot of fellows who have
their hats on and who take plugs OF
tobacco out of their mouths and place
them on the sides Of their plates while
they eat. I car never get used to it,
however long L live there, and never
really have an appetite Unless I am
away from home. Tonight L leave for
my farm. That makes three dinners be-
tween this and return to my excellent
friends who eat with their whole faces
and pour gravy down each others backs
at their meals by way Of horse
play.-Ex.

REEDS TARIFF POLICY.

Reeds tariff policy next winter,
which the Democratic papers are
guessing at, will be to keep as far
away from the tariff question as pos
sible."
SO says the st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
If such is to be the policy of Reed,
who will in all probability be the
speaker in the next Congress, then
such will he the policy of the Republi-
can party in 1896. If Reed is the next
speaker he can force the party policy
in almost any direction. In doing so
he will make a careful study and
analysis of public sentiment that his
party shall not run counter to it.
If the policy is to keep as far away
from the tariff question as possible, ii
is a tacit acknowledgement that for
some time at least the tariff will not
be an issue. What issue, then, will
the Republicans take up? If tariff is
eliminated as an issue, and we believe
it is, then in the very nature of things
silver will come to the front While
it is admitted that the administration

he denied that the silver sentiment of
the country is almost entirely confined
to the Democratic ranks. This claim
is not made as to the west where
both parties favor free silver.
Thus far there has been no pro-
nounced advocacy of silver by the Re
publican party. If the incoming Con-
gress avoids the tariff, will it take I'D
silver? 1t is scarcely probable; but if
it should, the people could not but
recognize that it was purely cam
paign move to capture votes; and if
would not succeed.
If the Congress which meets in De-
cember keeps as far away as possible
from the tariff question and avoids the
silver issue, the defeat of the Republi-
can party the following November is
certain.

attempt to force another issue and on
its own terms? Issuing and issuing
bonds doesn't solve a financial prob
lem for the government any more than
renewing a mans note pays his debt.
The day of payment is postponed;
nothing more. An increase in the rev.
enue sufficient to pay all government
expenditures will greatly aid the gov
eminent, but how will it solve the So
called gold problem? We shall owe
Europe substantially what we owe her
now and this will call for gold. AS the
exports increase that will of course
put a greater credit to the American
account in Europe and thus save some
gold All this will not prevent a
bond or gold syndicate from depicting
the gold reserve in the treasury when
ever it chooses by the now familiar
process of presenting notes and de-
manding gold for them. And such a
syndicate will repeat the process when
ever the time seems opportune. All
this must force the money question to
the front next year, and there can be
no permanent solution of it without
free coinage of silver.

TO ABOLISH POVERTY.

President Andrews, Of Brown Unlver-
sity, has been giving his ideas upon
the Public School System as an In
strumentality for Social Advance
ment." in a paper read before the
American Institute of Instruction,
Portland, Me- From the accounts or
the paper that we have seen we should
say that his ideas are those Of social
ism applied to the school. he very
truthfully says that the existence Oh
poverty in the world is one of the sad
dest and most gruesome facts OF me-
and that this poverty leads to the low
ering of the standard of life. This is
no doubt true, and the remedy for IL
is that for which mankind is strug-
Cling in one way or another. President
Andrews thinks that a better system Oh
education would afford remedy. inns
is very doubtful indeed. A better
standard of living is dependent upon
a better capacity for producing the
things of the earth and satisfying the
desires of mankind. Even then there
would be poverty, but it would all tend
to do AWAY with squalor and THAI
shiftlessness that are too frequently
the accompaniment of poverty. In his
school scheme, President Andrews
would have every schoolhouse verit-
able palace, not only with the best
of ventilation and light and warmth,
but these buildings to be of great
architectural beauty with surroundings
to match. This is all desirable and
not at all too utopian for realization.
But still the question is, How will all
this bring about a material prosperity
that will do away with poverty? So
far as we have seen, the question is
not answered; it is we'll perhaps that
no attempt to answer it has been
made. A true system of education will
teach that there always will be some
rich and some poor; that envy brings
more discomfort than any poverty, for
these are truths that cannot be gain
said. Everything that tends to anne
liorate the hardness of the conditions
surrounding the lives Of most men, is
to be welcomed and encouraged. AS
there is no royal road to wealth so
there is no royal way in which to abol-
ish poverty. We believe we discern in
President Andrews ideas the influence
of a close reading of Kidds Social Evo-
luton, book largely utopian and de-
cidedly socialistic.

THE MONEY QUESTION IN 1soc.

Whenever there is shipment of
gold to Europe there is more or less
speculation as to the condition of the
gold reserve in the treasury. At present
there is little or no apprehension con-
corning the matter, although Wall
street brokers use these shipments for
the purpose Of working the stock mar
ket to their advantage. There is no
apprehension felt because the bond
syndicate has demonstrated its ability
to cover enough gold into the treas
ury to keep the reserve above the
100000, 900 mark. But the bond syndi-
cate is doing this because it is under
contract to do it, and for no other
reason. That contract has only a few
days more than a couple of months to
run, and when it shall have expired.
what then? The deluge? No one can
say. It, dictated the terms on which
the last bond issue was made. Will it

the language of the World, the (New
York; excise law as now enforced, is a
direct denial of the equal rights of
citizens. It is therefore an offensive
invasion of liberty and an oppressive
Withholding of the right of local self
government
If the manner of its present enforce
ment is an Offensive invasion of lib
erty,' then such enforcement cannot
be legal, and remedy can readily be
found and should be sought in the
courts. If it is legally enforced, then
all the hostility to it arises from the
law itself, though this may not be
recognized by those who oppose it.
The remedy is to seek its repeal A
law that, when enforced, is univer-
sally condemned should not be upon
the statute books.
The trouble in New York appears
to be that the excise law is not wanted
by the people. If this is SO, then the
people have within their own hands
the power to repeal it. If they do not
avail themselves of it, they have
themselves to blame, and should not
condemn their officials for enforcing a
law that they will not repeal.

MARKET FOR OUR SURPLUS
WHEAT.

The prospects now are that the
crops in this country will be great be-
yond precedent. This will make the
hearts of the farmers rejoice, Tor to
them it means good times. And there
will be a great demand, from England
for it has been very bad season for
agricultural products in Great Britain
1t is considered to have been the
worst season since 1879. From April
until the end Of June, no rain fell to
speak of, while the sun was so hot
as to almost burn up some of the
spring crops. The storms that should
have come in the spring came in July
a time most inopportune, for harvest
ing was just beginning. All this
means that Great Britain must i'm
port more than usual and this in
turn means that the United States will
supply more than any other country
So far as the expectation of wheat
to England is concerned, this country
is SO far ahead of any other that it
may be said to be without any serious
rival Russia most nearly Gpproa CHI
ing that position. 1t is occasionally
asserted that the United States have
ceased to be the chief reliance of Eng

NEW YORK EXCISE LAW.

The enforcement of the excise law
in New York has aroused great deal
of hostility, the champion of this hos

entire editorial page to extracts from
the great writers on liberty and the
rights of man. Among those quoted
from are De Tocqueville, James
Bryce, Thomas Paine, Herbert Spen-

scopious extracts from the Declaration
of independence and Locke's Essay on

interesting reading and convinces one

eminent persons. And these extracts

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.

The talk about making the campaign in
Ohio this year on state issues has nice
sound about it. We hear the suggestion
every year. The people can't be re-
strained from taking an interest in gen.
eral questions. The campaign of 1898 in
Ohio was lost and won on issues made
by Congress and the president. The pres
ent rotten Republican legislature and the
mistakes of the Mckinley administration

The United States in this year fur
nished the United Kingdom with more
than % per cent. of all the wheat i'm
ported, while the per cent. of flour
imported from this country was very
much greater. The total imports of
flour in this year were 19,1S4,6O5 cwt.,
of which 15,925,4S6 cwt. came from the
United States.
There is no need to be apprehensive
that the United States will lose the
English market for wheat and flour.

products of all kinds.

scheme is to have the government build

more than variation of some of the
