Tariff Is McKinley's Hope.
Some Of His Supporters Not Aware CT
the Danger; Others Think it
Exaggerated"

"Portentous and mencciNs, a political
specter has risen in the rural counties of
this state, threatening to overshadOw par
ties and conditions and obliterate partisan
lines from the Pennsylvania boundary to
the st. Lawrence and from Lake Erie to
The Hudson. The farmers are Worshiping
the silver calf. In many of the counties
there is no actual organization of the
friends Of free silver. An organization and
an active free silver campaign would
make many of the strongest republican
counties in the state doubtful in Noyem-
Der"
Continuing, the Herald says that even
without an organiza ion the free silver
farmers knocked the sound money men
off their feet in many places IN the state
in the recent democratic primaries, and
proceeds to enumerate localities where
this has been done, prominent among
them being such counties as Lewis and
Genesee. The latter is the home of Bob"
Maxwell, leader of the Cleveland demo-
cracy in western New York.
On test vote the silver men knocked
out the friends of 2. Flower in the Sec
ond Assembly District of Jefferson coun-
tN, and would have carried both districts
had they been organized. Silver is likely
TO con rol both party organizations in St.
Lawrence county, and the free silver
democrats of Onondaga and Monroe
counties were in control a the Saratoga
convention. Summing up the whole situa
ton, the Herald says that the repor )
Of it's correspondents show that it is the
republicans rather than the democrats
who SHOULD oe alarmed. The situation
is like noun ain forest in August, ready
for the match. The republican leaders
are in ignorance of the actual state of
afairs-it has all come about in three or
four weeks. The county democratic lead
ers having become acquainted with it in
their caucuses, are secretly anxious for
free silver to triumph in Chicago. They
think they can shift the tariff issue and
carry the farmers almost solidly for free
silver.
From st. Lawrence county the herald's
correspondent teegraphs that that rock
ribbed Gibralter of republicanism is one
enormous debating society, and the only
subject debated is free silver; the tariff
has been forgotten. The writer portrays
the deplOrable condition of the farmers of
that section Of he state, and says that
tremendous fall in the prices of farm
products has made the scarcity Of money
in the rural districts almost grotesque.
Cheese sells for from to 61s cents a
pound; butter has been down as low as
10 Gems potatoes must be fed to the
stock
When the Wilson bill was enacted and
Canadian hay began to come across the
line and undersell the New York product

Chicago, July "a number Of popu-

IF ONE MOVED TO MARS.

1t IS not necessary - consider the
various rec sons that would impel many
inhabitants of the earth to got Mars
if they had the opportunity. But ne
one can doubt that the f. st train fol
Mars, or the f st balloon, OF the frs
electric liner sent out by the Univer
Il Celestial Transportation and Safe
Delivery Company, Mars division
would be booked TO its utmost capacity
Curiosity alone would suffice to crowd
it, and it is certain that the Anglo
Saxon race, which has furnished most
of the great travellers, would be fully
Represented in the throng of adventur.
ers bound for another world.
When Mars is nearest to the earth its
dis nee is no less than sc, 900, 900 miles
But if we Ut our speed to match that
of an electric impulse flying through
the Atlantic cable-say $4,000 miles
per second-we should ID there in just
40 minutes.
On approaching Mars, we should be-
hold world looking in some respec'7
remarkably like the earth, having sea-
MS resembling ouls, with torrid, tenn
rsrate and .tigid zones; turning on !
e-.'s like our globe and in nearly the
me time, showing in winter broad
whits-car :, as of srow, covering its po.
lar IT .iors, and presenting many ap-
pealauces suggestive of continents,
oceans, islands and peninsulas. AS we
watched it slowly turning under our
eyes We could see on one side, south Of
its equator, huge, staring eye like
spot, which Sch; lpareli has named the
Lake of the Sum-" and on the oppo-
site side, reaching from the southern
hemisphere into the noithern, q great,
dark, crooked area, somewhat resem.
bling North America in shape. and
kuown to astronomers as the "Hour-
Glass Sea-" And then all the globe be-
meath us would appear to be mapped
with delicate reds and yellows and
grsys and blues; long waving curves
and sharper indentations would make
their appearance in what looks
like coast lines, and presently, run
ming east and west, and south and
north, and passing, beyond. the ho-
rizon's utmost rim," network of dark
colored lines, like vast web covering
the planet, would be seen. These are
the famous "canals."
But while we were wondering what
this could mean we should be struck
by another uuearthlike thing. Being
accustomed to dwell on o globe three
fourths of whose surface is covered
with water it could not escape our no.
tice that the world we were approach
ing had far more land than water. In
deed, it is likely that we should find
that the "Hour Glass Sea" and many
other so-called seas of Mars are only
part of the time filled with water, and
that even then they are not like the
terrestrial oceans, but rather vast
swamps, choked with rank vegetation
suddenly awakened to life by periodi-
cal inundations supplying moisture to
their roots. Visiting them at another
time, we should find only deserts with
C acked soil baking in the sun. At
any rate, some of the discoveries made
with telescopes iu 1894 suggest these
things.-Harper's Round Table.
