ouAY's PRETENDED VIRTUE.

There is but one Matt. Quay. Ills sue
cess in politics was first due to his TREND
shin to the millionaire Camerons and his
usefulness to them. In the Senate he has
heen the special friend of the trusts and
mammoth manufacturers who cry always
like the horse leech give, give" never
getting as much protection as they want.
They would not be satisfied unless they
had the earth enclosed in barbed wire
fence. But Quay has sought to give them
all they wanted, and has always been the
spokesman of the rich and powerful
Recently Mr.. Wanamaker announced
himself candidate for the United States
Senate. While not the ideal man for
Senator, he is by all odds the highest type
of a man considered by the Pennsylvania
Republicans for that position during the
past thirty years. Indeed they have sent
men less qualified for the responsible du-
ties of Senator than any other State in
the Union. Many Of the better class of
the Republicans have presented Mr..
Wanamaker as an improvement on the
Quay Cameron machine school Mr..
Quay fires up at the presumption of the
business men, and says
| am opposed to the theory
that organized wealth shall dictate
high office, and so take possession of
the government. The people
most in need of protection
are the farmers, the small storekeep-
ers, the artisans and the laborers, and
/ stand by them. | go into
the barricades with the bourgeoise
and the men in blouses.
There must be less business and more
principle in our politics. The
business interests are making our
politics sordid and corrupt. The ire
mendous sums Of money furnished by
business men are polluting the we'll
springs OF our national being.
Organized political machinery has been
his method. He is willing enough to tax
the people for the rich, but he wants no
colleague who will not do his bidding and
who, whatever his shortcomings, is an
infinitely superior man to Quay. A mil
lionaire is better than tool of Million
aires, or a pretender.

A POLITICAL PARADOX.

Here is a political paradox" said
Congressman Dockery, of Missouri,
to an interviewer the other day. "In
1892 we Democrats made the cam
paign upon the tariff issue and won.
Our President called a special session
of Congress to consider, not the tar
if, but the currency question. In
1896 the issue Of the campaign is the
money question. The Republicans
win, and their President is to call
special session to consider, not the
currency, but the tariff"
History will repeat itself If President
Cleveland had called an extra session inn
mediately upon his Inauguration, tariff
bill in keeping with his party's pledges
could have been enacted. But he put a
wrong financial policy to the front, and
his party was so divided that when he
finally got ready to talk tariff, there was
no way of getting the party together. Mr.
Mckinley will let the protected interests
write tariff law for their personal en-
ricnment, and will reap exactly what Mr.,
Cleveland reaped. The Republicans are
pledged to secure international bimetal-
lism. Unless they do it, the people will
repudiate them.

COTTON IS KING.

The Industrial Record and Textile IL
view has an elaborate editorial explain
ing the decline of wooden hosiery" an
cites as one of the reasons that cotto
underwear is being preferred to woole
for hygienic as we'll as economic reasons
We quote the substance of the articl
because it is, to us at least, as novel as
is interesting and important to cotto
raisers:
THE discomfort often expressed by
manufacturers of wooden hosiery at
the fact that their product does not
meet with a steady demand at fair
price, due wholly to the reluctance
with which these manufacturers re-
ceive the intelligence that the popu-
larity of the wooden garment for aver
age American wear is becoming a
feature of the past, is probably one
OF the most discouraging influences
with which the jobber must contend
when summing up his affairs for
winter season.
portant truths are suggested-that
the majority of American weavers,
for both economic and hygienic pur-
poses. are taking more kindly to the
cotton garment; that it is very easy to
overstock the market with the wool
en- article; and, peculiarly applica-
BILE to the moment, a tariff upon raw
wool will put the wooden product
still farther from the mind of the
American people than it is to-day.
Cotton hosiery can be produced not
only to retail for less money per
pair. but will always outwear the
wooden product, thereby proving at
least two-fold more economical to the
consumer. Moreover, the improve
ment that has been made in the san
itary equipment, with particular re-
ference to heating, of our modern
dwelling houses and commercial es-
Establishments, enables the individual
person to wear the cotton stocking or
half-h6se with degree of comfort
equal to and in wholesomeness far
surprising that afforded by the wool
en- garment. A market commodity
meeting with disfavor at the hands
of the consumer is dear at any price,
and is bound to react with unsavory
effect upon the manufacturer who
must satisfy himself with a profit
less price for his product. A duty
upon wool will necessarily enhance
the cost of that commodity and will
advance the market price Of the fin
ished garment to a point which shall
deprive it of what little popularity it
now enjoys. So no relief is offered
from this quarter.
by continued urging, jobbers have
managed to turn some of the knitters
from wooden to cotton garments, and
the latter, by nominal outlay OF
money, gains in the end. There will
always be demand for limited
amount of wooden hosiery, but the
only profit in the business at this late
day may be derived from adjusting
the supply to the demand, with no
overlap"

WOMEN COMING TO THE FRONT

Two events in North Carolina during
the past week show that the woman
question has obtained strong foothold
in North Carolina.
/. The directors Of the State Insane
Asylum for negroes, located at Colds
sistant physician, and elected Mrs. DR..
Clara Jones to fill the position. There
have been a few female physicians Ill
the State who won success, notably
Miss Sue Dimmick, of Washington. and
Miss Annie Alexander, of Charlotte, but
Mrs. Jones is the first elected to a posi-
ton by State authorities. The directors
have acted wisely, as we believe the
results will show.
2 The Methodist Conference has de-
cided to open the doors of their college,
Trinity at Durham, to girls and women
on the same terms that men and boys
are admitted. Mr.. Washington Dukes
enlightened and progressive liberality
has wrought this change. Cornell in
NEW IDFh anu EiOu III ILLS CLdL's nave
demonstrated that co-education in higher
education is a success. Commenting on
Mr.. Dukes gift and the condition at
tached to it OF opening the college to
women, the Atlanta Journal says:
I'm those colleges of the North and
West where boys and girls are edu-
Gated together the results have been
such as to encourage the friends Of
co-education.
I'VE see no reason why the trustees
of Trinity College should hesitate to
comply with the condition Of Mr..
Dukes princely gift and none why
the college should not be more pros
porous than ever after girls are ad-
mitted."
We expect to see the day when women
doctors will be in all our State institutions
and in our leading towns, and when the
doors Of all our colleges and universities
| will be open to the girls. The day of the
veil and the idea that women need to
be jailed is passing away. The newer
| and broader day has dawned for women.
1t will not make them masculine and
rude, but it will make them self reliant
and add to their field of usefulness. They
will not quit marrying, but their in
creased knowledge will better fit them
for the duties of wife and mother.

CHRISTMAS AND THE FATHER
LESS.

To the Editor: At the Orphans Home,
Barium Springs, n. c., Thanksgiving
Day is an occasion for thanksgiving to
God and to Gods people. 1t is also a
day of expectancy, because the home is
made the recipient of the thank-offerings
of Gods people. 1t is a matter Of salts
faction that this year was so generally
observed and that the donations were so
liberal, especially as sickness and pres
sure of duties prevented the superintend-
ent from using the press to inform the
public of the wants of the fatherless. We
wish to acknowledge with thanks the
kindness Of all who made the Orphans
Home the recipient Of their offerings.
May the Father of the fatherless accept
their offerings and reward them album
dainty. The gifts this year are not as
abundant nor valuable as those Of last
years Thanksgiving season, yet our or
phan household is much larger and there
fore their wants greater. Now 1T is de-
sirable that there be no necessity for
issuing appeal to the friends of the Home
to relieve the wants of the fatherless.
To prevent this it will be necessary for
Christmas to be made the occasion of
large additions to the support fund by
cash contributions and donations in kind.
Eighty-two children gathered at the Or
phans' Home look to the Presbyterians
Of the State for the supplying of all their
wants. Send -four, meal, rice, sugar,
molases, meat, butter or anything that

mended a man for an official position

ception, and that was Burlingame,
who, after ! was assaulted in the
Senate by Butler, offered to stand up
and be shot at in n duel for my sake
and for the honor of the North, and
will any man blame me for making
that a personal matter? But, apart
from that, he was eminently qualified
and achieved great distinction by his
work in China"
