-:O:-
Sir John Millais, the successor of Sir
Frederick Leighton as president of the
Royal academy, whose death was re-
corded recently, had more the appear
ance OF rosy-faced English country
gentleman than of an artist, and he
made his real home at his country seat
near Perth, where he devoted much time
to fishing and shooting. His house at
Aenslngton was more palace than
large. bare, unfinished room. He
gained Il prize medal for drawing in his
ninth year. but regretted that he had
neen allowed to take up art seriously be-
tore he had had frst-class education.
Leighton speaks every language under
the sum- he used to say, while L
well. | shoot, and fish, and play cards"
In his twentieth year Millais headed the
famous revolt against conventionality in
art. which became known as the Pre-
Raphaelite brotherhood. He abandoned
their tenets later, however, and his best
work was done between 1850 and 1870.
1t has been said that during the last
twenty years his work has been fit only
to be reprinted IN the Christmas num-
bers of the illustrated papers. His range
OF work was tremendous, extending from
the pre-Raphaelite pictures to illustra-
tons of Thackeray's novels. When he
was n, he was commissioned by John
Rusllin. the art critic. to paint the lat
ter's wife. They had been married a
year before, but the union was purely
platonic one, owing to an infrmity on the
part of the bridegroom. AS Millais
worked on her portrait, the painter and
the young wife fell in love. She OBJ
tanned a divorce from her husband, and
in 1854 became Mrs. Milais. There
have been various tales told of the di-
vorce, but it is certain that Queen Vic
toria, who is very strict in these mat
ters, has never withdrawn her favor
from the artist, the artists wife OF the

November. To see one of these noble
hearted patriots, who has raked in
millions of wealth from the proceeds of
others and never felt the slightest i'm
pulse of seltishness in the operation,
deliberately advance the wages of the
poor workingman, we might as well
expect to go out some cold frosty morn
ing in mid winter and find the devil
seated in a fence corner reading the
Scriptures of divine truth. If my mem
ory is not greatly at fault this same
class of patriots have persistently urged
the working men of the United States
for twenty years past to vote for high
tariff tax on all they eat, drink and
wear to enable them to successfully
compete with the pauper labor of gold
standard Europe. Now, if they really
have such thing as pauper labor in
Europe where the gold standard is in
full bloom, and where the rich nobility
enact all the laws and own all the
wealth, what strange magic is there in
the precious metal when we adopt this
same European gold standard that will
prevent lis from raising a liberal, not to
say a prolific, crop of pauper laborers
of our own by the policy? If those
governing classes who own and control
the gold in Europe have succeeded in
grinding the toiling masses of Europe
down to paupers, why should we hope
for any different or any better result in
America if we adopt the same policy in
our financial system ? Do not similar
causes produce like results the world
over I? If we erect the plutocratic
millionaires of the United States into
the governing force by trusts and other
devices, what reason is there to expect
different results? The simple truth is,
we have been going to the bad for many
years past, and Maj Mckinley and the
boiling democrats tell us we must con-
tinue the same policy until some body
comes over from Europe and lifts us
out of the mire But common sense
says, turn out all the old rascals and
elect new and clean men to official
stations. This is the revolution our
fathers contemplated when they estab-
llshed an elective government on the
ruins of the British monarchy in
America. We can go to the polls with
little bits of paper and inaugurate q
complete revolution without shedding
one drop of human blood. 1t is not SO
in Europe, where kings reign and
rule under the false pretense of divine
right, or poor Ireland would have had
home rule long since. If we seek to
occupy the condition of Ireland, let us
adopt the single gold standard as they
have it, and when our descendants cry
out in the agony of their souls, as the
Hebrews of old did when they were re-
quired to make "brick without straw, -
our sad hearted and weeping plutocrats
may have mercy ON them like Pharaoh
and his task masters had on the children
of Israel. M. L. P.

Weary and Wounded Were Included.
Frankfort, KY, Sept. 14-In 1865
Gen. Palmer, the bolter nominee for
president, was military governor of
Kentucky, and just before the August
election of that year he issued the fol-
lowing order, which. if it could have
been enforced, would have practically
disfranchised nearly every democrat or
southern sympathizer in the state. AZ
ter reviewing the causes for issuing the
order in a lengthy and vituperative
preamble, he classes those who are to
be disqualified under four sections,
viz. :
81. All rebel soldiers, whether
paroled or not, and without regard to
the fact that they have or have not
taken any of the oaths prescribed by
law, executive or military orders, on
have registered under orders from the
headquarters of the department OF
Kentucky.
"2. All guerrillas and others, who,
without belonging to the regular rebel
military organizations, have taken up
arms against the government, or have
in any way operated against the gov
ernment or people of Kentucky, or any
other state or territory.
''3. All persons who by net or word,
directly or indirectly, gave aid, comfort
or encouragement to persons in re-
bellion. This applies to all persons
who have voluntarily furnished any
rebel force or person with information,
food, clothing, persons, arms, money,
or have harbored, concealed or other
wise aided or encouraged them.
"4. All persons who we're or have
been directly or indirectly engaged in
the civil service of the late so-called
provisional government of Kentucky,
or who have in any way submitted to
either of said pretended governments,
all agents of or other contractors with
or for either of said pretended govern
ments are disqualified from voting.
"All persons of the classes afterward
are required to abstain from interfer-
ence with elections, and will, if they
shall in any manner interfere therein,
by voting or appearing at the polls, be
at once arrested and held for military
trial. Aid will be given to civil au-
thorities to enforce the law and to pre-.
serve the peace.
