AN EDITOR WANTED.


The Venerable New York Sun Has Lost
Its Head.
OF the many tools of the money pow
er i'll New York The Sun is the most
malignant and servilely INSCRIPTIONS.
But the editor evidently does not always
read the proofs of its news columns.
For illustration, here is the closing
paragraph in one Of its editorials the
other day:
What does all this presage2 1t seems to in
dicate that the Bryanite campaign will go to
pieces so Enthusiastically during the coming
month that little of it will remain to with
stand the assault of the rising popular deri
Sion. In its whole course OF uwo months moth
ing has tended to provoke respect. Nothing
in the arguments of the Bryanite advocates, in
the character Of the mon and the newspapers
supporting the movement which started off
confidently, or in the tone, spirit and methods
in which it is conducted has produced any
conviction among serious, intelligent and com
mon sense men that it has in it even the sem
blance of enduring vitality. 1t cannot grow,
for it has no fructifying germ of life. 1t is
dead at the roots.
And here is something taken from
another column giving an account of
goldbug rally in Minneapolis:
In the course of his speech General Buckner
Dental nominee, and no sooner had the word
Bryan" left his mouth than the house was
the scene of Il demonstration. The cheering
continued until the chairman of tho meeting
was compelled to ask the audience to give the
general a respectful hearing. But it was sew
eral minutes before the audience quieted down
enough for the general to remark with consid-
cradle feeling that he would not speak unless
the people desired to hear him.
And here is something else from its
news columns, likewise taken from the
same issue as the editorial quoted above:
81 want to say to you frankly that Illinois is
there is won for sound money is a false and n
very dangerous one. We can carry the state
for Mckinley, but it can only be done by the
most faithful work. False prophets have been
among you here. In other words, somebody
has been doing lot of lying about Illinois and
other states in that section. There is danger
there-grcat danger" This opinion comes from
Judge A. A. Goodrich of Chicago, at present
stopping at the Holland House, where he ex-
pressed his views to Sun reporter.
Now, really, Mr., Dana, do these bits
! culled from your news columns look as
if the Bryan campaign will go to
pieces?" Do they not look rather as if
you were so badly frightened that you
have lost your head? Otherwise you
surely would not make an absurd claim
in one column of your paper and give
the lie to it i'll tho other columns of the
same issue.

Senator Perkins, of California, is In

promises made 16 years ago when he
was governor of that state. lie was
very popular and it got to be quite the

The fond fathers and mothers kept him

stead of sending check to each name

Perkins wrote letters, in which he said
all manner of nice things, winding up
as follows: "Whcn George Perkins

Hull House (Chicago) Notes.

connection with Rockford college, in
cluding such studies as birds, botany,
Italian art, modern essayists, reading
classes in Plato and Browning, ethics,
sketching and physical training. In con-
nection with these classes are lectures
and musicalcs The aim is to give
healthful mental stimulus and food,
with simple and recreative daily life.

feature of the work. First class pictures
are loaned and the benefits of art are
given to the attendants, with the desire
that they become acquainted with art
principles and apply them in their daily
work.
There are over 33 clubs and some 90
classes in history, art, literature, Ian

companied by lectures, discussions, con-
ferences, club congresses etc. A serious
attempt is made to aid in solving tie
vexed problems of city government and
social life.

Gar Reed was altogether right in
saying that the eighth commandment is
involved IN this campaign. The Hanna
trusts must stop stealing from the peo-

plundering the treasury. The Roths-

take their hands out of our pockets.
Those are the issues, and they are all

a novel method of perforating iron
plates is reported from Salt Lake City.
The city is being supplied with clcc-
tricity for lighting and power gener-
atcd il miles away in the Big Cotton
wood canyon. 1t was found necessary,
for the purpose of pipe connections, to
cut four 4o-inch openings in the seven
foot penstocll, the plates of which were
half an inch thick. The workmen be
gan to cut with cape chisels, but the
progress made was too eXasperatingly
SLOW for the engineer of the works, Il.
NJ. Jones, who is known throughout the
west as the cowboy engineer" Mr..
Jones took up his rifle, and, using steel
bullets cascd with copper, shot a line of
holes through the plates from distance
of about 80 feet. The intervening edges
were afterward easily cut out, and in
very short time the job was finished.

y farmer near Newburg, Mich, lost
his only team by lightning, and was
himself so severely shocked as to be
unable to work. The neighbors turned
out 4G strong, and with Is horses soon
had his little farm plowed, dragged and
planted in corn. Then a subscription
paper was put under way to purchase a
horse for him to cultivate the corn with.
Instances of this kind are very rare,
but when they do come to light they
serve to revive faith in mankind and
demonstrate that the example of the
good Samaritan is not wholly lost to the
people Of these too uncharitable times.

A peculiar marriage ceremony took
place some days ago south of Franklin,
Ind. Franklin Corduroy and Ada
Shoemaker received a license to marry
from Clerk Bytield and they applied to
Squire Taylor, of Brown county, to tie
thelnot. The squire doubted his right
to perform ceremony outside of his
own county and was equally sure there
would be nothing legal were the young
people married outside of the county
in which they had procured license.
The 'squirc's fertile mind soon solved the
difficulty, however, and a rig was pro
cured. Driving TO the county line, the
squire took his stand in his own coun-
tyand the couple in johnson county and
the ceremony was performed.

How They Are Lining Up.

How They Are Lining Up.
There are no two men in this country
who have better regulations for fairness,
accurate Judgment and keen political
foresight than Major John NJ. Carson
and Henry George. The tormcris Wash
ngton correspondent of the Philadelphia
Lodgor, but previous to every general
election he tours the doubtful states and
his letters are read the nation over.
While the paper which he represents is
Staunch Republican journal, it allows
him to tell the facts as he finds them.
Last month he travelled Minnesota, Michi-
Gan and Illinois OfthcSr states he says:
IAN analysis Of the electoral vote will
show that on any conservative basis
neither side has certain assurances of
victory"
Mr. George has travelled Illinois and
Ohio. His letters to the New York
Jouaal corroborate what Mr.. Carson
has said. The Middle West is extremely
doubtful, because it is filled with
independent voters who are liable to
turn any state either way by over $4,000
majority. Altgcld's reelection as gov
crnor of Illinois is virtually conceded by
his opponents, and all the Republican
efforts are being concentrated upon the

If it can be possible that there is one
human being who has no land and has
no right to land, then that human being
has no right to live, except by suffer-

Lazarus, depending on the rich man.

But most of all ii is the school for the
masses. The tuition is reasonable,
board is cheap, no expensive society,
no caste, but a plain school where
young people go to study. Students
may enter at any time without exam

ever elementary or advanced. There
is none OF the old college rowdyism
tolerated, but students are made to
feel at home and are surrounded by
good moral influences. Progressive
