the great theme? 1t is safe to wager
to the contrary. His name and deep

in the public mind, but it comes into
this connection like an unbidden

"This appointment has a purely
political look. The $500 per annum

the plums that make the politicians

d plum on mere enthusiast in his

a Real Journey.

Perhaps couple of decades ago it
was that Jules Verne, that ingenious
| juggler with the geographical facts
and scientific probabilities land i'm
possibilities described in vivid style
the supposed voyage Of a wonderful
submarine vessel driven by electric
ity. A faint shadow of the gor-
geous picture has been given us by
some electrically guided torpedo
boats, but the story still remains a
fancy rather than even probability.
However romantic it might be to
voyage twenty thousand leagues
under the seas" were that posi-
bility, it would be far more profit
able and interesting to take jour
ney of seven thousand miles land re-
turn through the prosperous and
populous states of Illinois, Wiscon-
sin, Iowa, Missouri, Minnesota, South
Dakota. Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado.
Wyoming and Montana, observing
their varied climate, their indus
trious people, their growing cities
and towns, studying their resources
in crops, timber and mines, and no.
ting what has been done in gener-
alton to transform the wilderness
into a cultivated county, the home
of nearly fifteen millions of people.
The traveller would return with his
mind stored with material for score
of books, and could choose history,
statistics or poetry as his themes.
Such a journey could be made by
taking trip over the lines of the
Burlington Route, which traverses
or penetrates all the states named
above, and reaches nearly all their
principal cities. Your home agent
can supply you with tickets via this
route to Chicago, Peoria, st. Louis,
Omaha, Kansas City, Denver, and
hundreds Of other places east, south
and west. For more particular infor-

A Purely Personal Perquisite.

Whatever ones view may be Of the
practicability of the scheme OF a
deep waterway connecting the great
lakes with the Atlantic ocean, it can
not be denied that Frank q. Flower
has done more than all other men in
the state to develop interest in It,.
He has studied the matter thor
oughly, and is an enthu-:ast for IL.
If amy man can be of service to the
state IN advancing the enterprise
that man is Mr.. Flower. He con-
WINGED the legislature that there was
in the scheme enough of promise to
justify the expenditure OF $500 per
year to pay commissioner 70 man
age II. The law was unquestionahly
passed with the expectation that
Mr.. Flower would be the commits
sioner, and with belief that within
two years he would demonstrate the
practicahility Of the enterprise and
its accomplishment be assured, or its
impraetieability proven and discus
sion ended In either case the ex-
penditure Of $500 per year would be
justified. But, Governor Ipham
seems To regard the laM Us intended
solely to afford him IN opportunity
of providing for another personal
friend at public expense; and, there
fore appoints a man who makes no
pretense Of having any interest in
deep waterways, Or disposition IL do
anything relating thereto except
draw the salary. Mr.. Flower should
have beenappointed, and would have
been II the governor had proper ap-
probation for even an appearance Of
administering his office AZ L public
trust.
The tone OF the press of the state
indicates general disappointment
that Flowers admitted superior
fitness for the place i not recognized

morous way, the Madison Democrat
presents the matter rs generally es-
tinated in saying that solely by the

Ten Months Of the Tariff.

Oshkosh Northwestern: 1t is in
structive to occasionally refer to the
workings of the new tariff that was
going to put wheat 70 Sl.25 q bushel,
throw open tive markets Of the world
to American products, and while
making every thing imported very
cheap, render prices for American
goods sold abroad very high-in
fact, revolutionize the laws of trade
and make American prosperity run
up hill. Yes, it is instructive to
dwell upon the little figures that
never, never lie and to place them in
jnxtaposition where the eye may
readily compare and the mental
strawcatcher seize with little effort
the lesson which they teach. The
new democratic tariff went into
effect, practically, on Sept. /, 1894, SO
that in the past fiscal year, ending
June Both, 1895, there were ten
months of experience with this tar
i'll. Comparing the fiscal year end
ing June 30, 1894, under the McKin-
ley tariff, with the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1896, ten Of which months
were under the Wilson tariff, we find
the exports of American products to
have been;

But the actual loss to labor is more
than this, because there was de-

Thus adding the loss to the produce
ers, through the fallingoff of exports
Of American products, to the loss TO
labor by the increase of the impor-
tation of dutiable goods, we have
this aggregate loss to the nation
through the tariff alone:

Inasmuch as product is labor in

considered as loss to American
labor.
This Il he result Of ten months Of
the Wilson tariff. 1t is almost dis
couraging to reflect that it will be
about forty months yet before Re-
publican congress under republic
can president can meet TO rectify the
mistakes Of this false Moses.

CRIES OF MURDER-About four
o'clock this morning Mr.. Raymond
Smith heard cries of murder on north
Royal street, near Princess, and pro-

man named Maggie Lyle PROSTATE in
the street, very drunk and with her
head and face bleeding. She was too
much under the influence of liquor to
talk coherently and Mr.. Smith notified
officers Sherwood and Hall and they
put the woman under arrest. This
morning she presented an abject ap
pearauce in the dock. Her face and
head bore the marks of assault or in
Iuries she received in falling. She
wss fined $3.50 The woman, it seems,
in company with Carrie Trayers went
to Cot. Nelson's saloon about eleven
o'clock last night, and she claims that
while there the Travers woman and
Nelson threw her into the street. She
swore out warrant for the arrest OF
both.
