Perhaps the most significant outcome
of thu Canadian election is the result of
the eleotionssin Quebec. That province,
as everybody knows, is very strongly
Catholic and it has had the reputation
Of being priest ridden. The principal is
sue of the campaign was the Manitoba
school question and naturally the Catho-
lie inclination was to support the gov
eminent inasmuoh as it had introduced
a bill restoring separate schools in the
Northwestern province. The Catholic
clergy espoused the government cause,
aud shortly before election issued a pas
torai commanding all good Catholics to
vote for government candidates. How
well their fioeks obeyed thom may be in
ferred from the following comparison be-
tween the result in Quebec this year and
at the last election. AT the last election
the Conservatives carried 80 seats in
Quebec and the Liberals 35. Az this cleo
tion tho Conservatives carried IS and the
Liberals 40. Some of this gain was due
doubtless to the fact that the Liberal
leader WAS a French Canadian, but a
Sood deal OF IL is attributed 20 re-
sentiment at the attempt of the priest
hood to dictate. The tendency among
Catholics as well as Protestants is toward
independent voting The wise policy to
pursue is to allow this tendency to grow,
and not to check it. The worst indict-
ment that CEN be brought against the A.
P. A. organization is that its influence
Is to refard this tendency.

One of thoythings the New York;. Dem
ocratic State convention pointed TO with
pride was the repeal of the Sherman pur-
chasing act by Democratic Congress.
While technically the statement Ia true it
is essentially false. The Congress that
repealed the Sherman act was Democrat
10 in both branches, but large MAORI
ty Of the Democratic members of the
Senate voted against its repeal. If the
fate OF that law had been decided by
Democratic votes it would be the law of
the land today.

There is more Catarrh in this section of
he country than all other diseases put to-
gether, and until the last few years was
supposed to be incurable. For great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local treatment
pronounced it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and
therefore, requires constitutional treatment.

If the platform adopted by the New
York Democrats fairly indicates the
amount of fight there is in the Hon. Will
liam G. Whitney the silver men who are
going to Chicago need not get their lives
insured in advance, for they will be in
no great danger of suffering any serious
injuries, mental or physical, from the
New York" gold bug" who has put him
self at the head of the sound money
forces. The New York platform is an
attempt to oonciliate the silver men and
moderate their demands by undertaking
to convince them that there is a chance
for an International agreement for the
free coinage of silver, which independ-
emit action on the part of this country
would postpone Indefinitely. Mr.. Whit
ney's main argument at Chicago, judg-
ing from the platform, is going to be
that free coinage will hurt silver. APP
parenty his heart is filed with solicitude
for the white metal, and his chief feac is
that it may suffer at the hands Of it's
friends We do not think the western

disposing of Mr.. Whitney and his argu-
Inent very soon after he reaches Chicago.
They will be able to show without any
trouble at all that there is no chance
whatever for an international agreement,
and that to indulge in any such hope
ia to cherish delusion. After that is
done, and it will be done very speedily
and effectually, the ground will have
been cut out from under Mr.. Whitney,
feet, for his principal argument against
free coinage will have been thoroughly
disposed of.

The Hon. Mr.. Milholland in letter
to the New York Evening Post says that
the chief credit for the gold plank belongs
to Mr.. Hanna. 1t is little curious,
however, if Mr. Hanna was anxious for
clear cut gold plank, such as was
he should have allowed the
State convention of his own state
to adopt plank which was more am
big uous, and capable Of more different
Interpretations than any platform adopt
ed by any state in the unicn. Ii he was
after gold plank it is very strange that
he should have permitted his own great
and Influential state to adopt straddle.
OF course it makes 10 very great differ
ence as far as its effect is concerned who
is responsible for it, but it was an ex-
ceedingly creditable piece of work and
the real author of it ought not to be de-
priyed of tho honor of it. If Ham real
ly secured its adoption he is not to blame
for claiming it, but while the
convention was in session the
honor was generally believed to be-
long to Senator Lodge and Mr.. Platr.
The ciieumstantial evidence is strongly
in their favor, and until Mr.. Hanna's
friends bring forward something more
in his behalf than they have thus far the
belief which prevailed at the time of the
convention will continue to prevail.

Haunted Houses.


All houses wherein men have lived and died
Are haunted houses Through the open doors
The harmless phantoms on their errands glide
With feet that make no sound upon the floors.
We meet them at the doorway, on the stair;
Along the passages they come and 60,
lmpalpable impressions on the air,
sense of something moving to and fro
There are more guests at table than the hosts
Invited. The illuminated hall
Is thronged with quiet. inofensive ghosts,
AS silent as the pictures on the wall.
The stranger at my Preside cannot see
The forms see nor hear the sounds hear.
he but perceives what is, while unto me
All that has been is visible and clear.
We have no title deeds to house or lands.
Owners and occupants Of earlier dates
From graves forgotten stretch their dusty
hands
And hold in mortmain still their old estates
The spirit world around this world of sense
Watts through these earthly mists and vapors
vital breath Of more ethereal air.
Our little lives are kept in equipoise
BY opposite attractions and desires,
The struggle Of the instinct that enjoys
And the more noble instinct that aspires.
These perturbations, this perpetual jar
OF earthly wants and aspirations high
Come from the influence of an unseen star,
An undiscovered planet in our sky.
And as the moon from some dark gate of cloud
Throws DER the sea floating bridge of light,
Across whose trembling planks our fancies
crowd
Into the realm Of mystery and night,
So from the world Of spirits there descends
A bridge of light, connecting it with this,
Der whose unsteady floor, that sways and
bends,
Wander our thoughts above the dark abyss

Where flowers never bloom nor sculptured
stone
Is placed to mark the unkempt, barren mound,
Lie the dead poor, line upon line. unknown
Line upon line all rudely thrust away,
AS If unfit, cen when returned to dust
To mingle with that dust Ser which yon gray
And tow ring granite sentinel holds trust
Line upon line the poor are set apart,
Their lives, their names and cen their deaths
forgot,
Unwept for and unmourned by loving heart
To lie uncared for, in this barren spot
Outcasts alive and outcasts cen when deadl
How few there be who ever hither stray
Mid these stilled hearts that through the long
years bled
And only healed when life had passed away.
What crime was theirs that all mankind should
shun
Their resting place as 'twere accursed
groundP
The crime of poverty, the only one
For which the world has ne'er forgiveness
found.

The Painter.


Nature hath taken her delicate brush,
Her palette and paints and all.
She hath worked In the silence of starlight
She hath worked in the storms loud brawl
She works, and, 10,
The frescoes grow
On the sides Of her ample hall!
She hath tinted the apple with flushes of rose;
She hath covered the pear with white,
And the osier blooms where the honeybee goes
She hath crowned with golden light.
The leaflng sloe
Is draped In snow,
And the celandine stars CLEAN bright.
She hath sprinkled the meadows with silver
and gold
And the cuckoo flowers delicate hue;
She hath kindled the gorse on the wind haunt
ed void
And hath garnished the woodlands anew.
The speedwell's eye,
Demure and shy,
She hath touched with heaven born blue.
And In and about and around them all
She hath filed in background of green.
The leaf buds burst at her noiseless call
And spread out verdurous screen,
And wearied eyes
In quiet wise
Find rest in the soothing scene.
