Honor.

The people imagine that 1t is a
great honor to be elected to congress
or the senate, or to be made presi-
dent. This is mistake. All that
the people can do is to put man in
a place where he can earn honor.
Honor is not aims; it must be earned.
Even an infinite God could not place
in an unworthy hand the jewel OF
honor; honor must be won. 1t comes
from the inside; not from place or
power; not from majorities or
crowns. This gem called honor can
be won and worn in the valleys as
we'll as on the mountain tops; in OBJ
security as we'll as in the light and
blaze of fame. Robert G.. Ingersoll.

Hon. A. j. Carroll comes out of the
special election in Louisville, made
necessary by his resignation, with in,
creased prominence, popularity and
prestige. Had he been defeated, his
political career would have been end
ed. But success has followed the
foolish step he chose to take. The
circumstances surrounding the affair
have attracted attention far and wide
to the man who scorned to accept an
office with the slightest faint upon it,
The advertising he has received, the
favorable comment his action called
forth from all over the country and
the splendid race he has made, will
put him in the front rank of Louis
vile Democrats. His services are
sure to be needed when the nomina-
tions are made next year for more i'm
portant Offices.

Representative U. S. Hall, of Mis-.
souri,, who was one of the most active
advocates of the income tax feature
of the Wilson German Tariff Bill, is
determined not to abandon the fight
for an income tax law. As result OF
careful inquiry into the subject an
amendment to the Constitution was
prepared and introduced by Mr.. Hall
Saturday. 1t is to be known as the
sixteenth amendment, and is as fol
lows:
"All taxes, as well as duties, inn
ports and excuses, shall be uniform
throughout the United States, pro.
vided that all capitation taxes shall,
and any other tax may, be apportion.
ed among the several States accord
ing to their respective numbers, count
ing the whole number of persons in
each State, excluding Indians not
taxed"

Senator Mills is not SO bad gold
bug after all. He has introduced a
bill directing the Secretary of the
Treasury to pay out silver when the
gold reserve is below 100000, 0c0.
This would go far towards clearing
up the financial situation. When the
Sherman raiders find they cannot
rob the treasury of its gold, they will
not try to present the greenbacks and
treasury notes for redemption. The
passage of this bill before.the end of
the year would prevent another bond
issue. Senator Mills is coming
around all right.

A Weighty Problem.

Already the more powerful think
ers in the various colleges, says the
New York Tribune, are graphing
with a problem that will personally
concern the men who enter college
next year. AS they will be gradu-
ated in the year 1900, the question
arises how they shall be designated.
Following a universal tradition, they
ought, OF course, to be referred to as
belonging to the class of 90. But
for obvious reasons such designa-
tion isregarded as unsatisfactory.

A CHANCE FOR WAR.

The United States may have an,
other war with Great Britain. A
complication has arisen that has
aroused strong war feeling at Wash
ington. For some time British Gui
ana has beenci:ss::--.::ing a slice of Vene-
zuela's territory and the boundary
line dispute has been the subject Of
some diplomatic correspondence be-
tween the State department and Lord
Salisbury, under the provisions OF
the Monroe doctrine. This law in
brief prohibits foreign nations from
acquiring any new territory on Ameri,
can soil, the United States being
bound to help out the weaker repub-
lies in case of war.
Secretary Olney's last letter to the
English Premier was sent four months
ago and the reply is expected this
week. 1t has in fact been received
and is only awaiting the Presidents
return from one of his periodical duck
hunts to receive his attention.
With what is foreshadowed, the be-
lief is that the note of the English
Prime Minister is one which opens
anew some features of the complied
ton. While it is thought England
positively refuses to admit to arbitra-
ton any of the territory included
within the limits of the Schomberg
line, it will also offer memoranda and
data to controvert the claims of the
Venezuelan Republic as to the terri
tory in dispute. With this feature
the American government has no
concern. Its attitude is that to en-
force its decree as to colonial posses
sion England must maintain its au
Sthority otherwise than by force. To
use force to subjugate Venezuela
would be directly in face of the Mon
roe decree. The misfortune of the
situation is that without force Vene-
zuela will not recede. If England
invades its territory and begins hos
Utilities it will defend itself. 1t will
meet force with force. This places
this government with but one alterna-
tive. 1t must either abandon the
Monroe doctrine as an unwritten law,
or engage in armed conflict with the
invading power.
The controversy has reached a
point where somebody must back
down, or hostilities are inevitable.
There will Of course be other cores
ponGence and an ultimatum before
a declaration of war will he seriously
considered by congress.
