THE czAR WILL ATTEND.
Russian Monarch WIN BE Present At the
wedding of Princess Helene.


LONDON, Aug. 2O.--A dispatch to The
Standard from Rome says that the car
has wired "a promise agreeing to witness
the marriage Of Nittorio EmRnuele, prince
of Naples, eldest son and heir apparent Of
the king Of Italy, and Princess Helene Of
Montenegro, third daughter of the reign
ing Prince of Montenegro. The czar on
the occasion OF his visit to Italy for the
purpose Of attending this prineely we'd
ding will be accompanied by the ezarina.
Owing TO this decision OF the Russian
monarch to visit Rome 1t is believed In
that city that Emperor William will visit
King Humbert spon the same occasion,
and that he, too, will attend ths wedding.
One of the most interesting points In
connection with the visit OF tho czar and
czarina TO Rome upon the occasion Of the
wedding OF the Prince Of Naples 70 Prin-
cess Helene is found ia the assertion, fre-
quently repeated, that Princess Helene was
at one time intended as the royal bride OF
the car himself, and 1t has been stated
that no would have married the beautiful
daughter of the Prince of Montenegro but
for the happy tcrinination Of his engage
ment TO Princess Alix the present ozarina
Of Russia. Upon the recent announcement
Of the engagement OF the Prince Of Naples

SOME POLITICAL FIGURING.

Th New York Life Insurance Com
pany has been for some time distributing
from The different agencies of the com
pany all over the country little blanks on
which the recipients are invited to mark
their judgment as TO how the electoral
vote OF the different states will be cast on
November 8. The same TO be returned to
the company.
Moro than u. 500 of these estimates have
already been received by the life insur-
ance company and the concensus Of the
opin ions Of the 1880 correspondents Is
that MCKINLEY Will have total of 25l
votes in the electoral college or y more
than is necessary TO elect. AS straw bal
lot it will occur to the average citizen
that the est .mate is worth more than or
dinary consideration by reason of the
broad territory that is represented and
the fact that an average public intelii-
gence, as far stripped as practicable of
the bias OF politicians, is responsible for 1t.
There is, of course, some bias in the
figures. The fac,, for instance, that one
citizen of Rhode Island estimates that
tits state will give its vote TO BRYAN,
whereas 6S citizens say "no," indicates
that one Rhode Islander at least has csti-
mated on his sentiments and not on his
beliefs. 1t is not likely that one citizen
would care to make bet on his iudg-
meut-though of course betting is but
feols argument. In the same way
citizen of Arkansas assumes to believe
that that state will go Republican in
Novem Der, giving no heed to the fact
that the election machinery is in the
hends OF the Popocrats. Nobody from
Vermont or Maine pretends to declare
that either state Will vote for BRYAN,
and nobody from Colorado, Idaho and
Montana ventures the opinion that either
OF these will declare for MCKINLEY
Minnesota furnishes a small majority of
opinion in favor of BRYAN and so does
Kentucky, while Maryland is voted for
MCKINLEY 10y a few votes, West Virginia
by more, Indiana by still more, and
Illinois by tremendous. majority otthe
estimates and the Dakotas are in the Nc
XINLEy column, too, by narrow margins.
Altogether, the estimates furnish an en-
couraging justilicatioN OF the opinions
OF men who are keeping their eyes very
wide open to the trend Of public opinion.
And the returns are not all in yet

IN speech recently made by Senator
DAVE, of Minnesota. the Chicago Tribune
says: ale gave some facts which tn >
VIII al farmers Of his and other states,
who claim wheat has fallen in price be-
cause silver has fallen, should think over.
SAID he: 'Ihe reason for the decline of
whel; has been oeerproduction. In 1873
the United States had no exporting com.
peti.or. la 1873 Russia exported only
about 20,0J0,000 bushels; In 1891 1t ex-
ported 80, 900, 900 bushels. In 1873 India
exported only 20a,0)0 cwt. In 1892,
30, 900. COO cwt., or eighty times more
than in 1873. IN 1894 her produc-
tion was 2s7, 90, bushels. The
worlds production in 1894 was 2,363,
$50, 900 bushels, OF which the United
States p, oducej l53. $50, coo bushels. So
you see the enormous mass against which
the Minnesota farmer has to contend. The
fact is, ms fellow-citizens, the best con-
sumer and customer o: the Minnesota
farmer is the psopls OF the United
States

Who Would Suffer Most?


There have been countries where the
rich have been comfortable and the poor
wretched. france bad come to be such a
country when the revolution broke out
there a little more than a century ago.
There have also been countries whore
there was nearly enough of the comforts
of life to go round, and where the great
majority of the population found the
material ingredients of human happiness
within their reach. The United States
has been such a country most Of the time
since IL became a nation, and II 1t is not
quite such country today it expects to
be so once more as soon as the effects of
temporary follies and errors have passed
away.
What has never been known on earth is
country where tho poor are comforta ole
and happy while the rich are wretched.
There is no record in history of such q
land as that. Religion can conceive of
il; indeed there are q good many people
who have lively expectation Of reach
ing some such place some time, but 1t
will not be on this earth or in this life.
The rule here Is that where there Is
suffering which Is due to the lack of
material commodities or to unfavora bic
material conditions, the poor get deal
the worst Of IL.
There Is o sentiment, which is more or
less prevalent in this country this year.
and which is being carefully cultivated
by some dishonest politicians, that the
arrangement Of business and the collapse
of credit which would follow the triumph
Of the free silver party would help the
poor blythe same process by which 1t
hurt the rich. III it did Ii would DO
what Is contrary to all hu man experience.
II would undoubtedly do permanent harm
TO many well-to-do people, whose hold
ings would be wrested from them by the
oxigencles Of panic, but In the end the
people who would suffer most would be
the poor, who would feel the effects OF
bad times first and longest, and the
people who would profit most would be
shrowd rich men with ready money to
buy, very cheap, property which their
poorer brethren could not hold. The
men VINO profit by wreck are the men
who can drag in the wreckage. The
meu-outside of the silver mine owners
who would eventually profit most py sill
Yer coinage are rich men, most Of whom
are fighting silver coinage with oil their
might. The men who would suffer most
from 1t are the wage earners-the mer
whom Debs and Ahgeld and Bryan him
self are trying to array against honest
monsy.

pride stands for something else
than advocacy ~ impractical schemes for

sober and substantial judgment OF his
