PIPE COLLECTIONS.
Bismarck's Meerschaum Foretold the In
portant Events of His Life.

One of The two greatest pipe collec-
tors who ever lived was Marquis de
| Watreville, whose smoking-room in
| Paris had the walls covered with costly
types, some of them worth, it is claimed,
as much as $4,000, and all arranged
with great beauty of design.
The other was the well-known Capt.
Bragge, of London, whose collection
was valued at 100000, who had agents
in every part of the known world, and
whose collection was deemed worthy
In 1850 OF being made special exhibit
| during the summer season at the Crys-
tai Palace
Prince Bismarck is a great pipe col
lector, and the gem of his collection has
curious history. Many years ago, as
Bismarck was strolling in the suburbs
| of Friedrichsruhe with his two hounds,
he was accosted by a Bohemian peddler
and asked to buy plain meerschaum
pipe of the type that Bismarck most af-
fected. At first Bismarck declined, but
the peddler claimed for the pipe the
power of forecast. and told him he
would serve three emperors as minis
ter, and that three important changes
in his life would be foretold by acct
dents Detailing the pipe.
Laughing, Bismarck bought the
pipe. He has since served three EN-
perors. Two days before the historic
moment when he was refused an audi
ence the stem of his pipe separated and
came to pieces. Later he Clipped q
piece from the side of the bowl, and
within month he was practically dis
missed by the present emperor. The
third sign has yet to come.

LUSCIOUS WATERMELON
A Brunette Statesman Tells How tn
Melon Should BE Eaten.

Melon Should BE Eaten.
You want to know something about
the watermelon crop, and not politics.
Well, bless your soul for that; it is a
relief from the awful monotony of cam
paign talk.
Alabama watermelons will be as
good this year as they ever were," says
the st. Louis Dispatch, land per-
haps better, but to cat luscious melon
is most interesting. Never cut a wa
termelon; 1T spoils it. Let it drop and
then pick up the pieces and eat them
with your fingers. Just imagine biting
chunk out of the ripe red heart; the
heart that sparl>les all over with little
globules of honey water, and when you
get it in your mouth 1t evaporates and
disappears, but leaves there the sweet
est taste that drives care away and
makes the whole world sunshine. But,
of course, I'll admit that to establish
that feeling for any length of time it
is necessary to eat more than one
melon.
'Yes, have eaten the hearts of nine
melons without stopping, but reckon
could finish several more. When
made that record the supply gave out
and had to stop.
people in the north, understand, do
not eat the seeds. If they had a stom-
ach like mine, made in the boiler works,
they could eat most anything, and I
am particularly fond of the seeds, as
they are the most nutritious"

The suit brought to set aside the ger.
rymander enacted by the special session
has been discontinued Senator Villas
and Burr w. Jones, who were the attor-
neys IN the case have dropped ont. Chair
man Peck was notified that If the State
Central Committee did not take the suit
up it would be discontinued. Mr.. Wall
says he did not authorize the beginning
OF the SUIT. The silver leaders are ayerse
to continuing it.
No doubt the reason Senator Villas and
Mr.. Jones dropped out of she case is be-
cause the course of party made it un-
pleasant for them to continue the suit,
whatever advantage that might result
TO be used To antagonize them. But they
would have shown better SORT to Lave
stuck to the contest. The silver en-
thusasm will die out as rapidly as it
formed and democracy will again stand
for The principles which 1t ALWAYS
did. In the interests of justice the ger
rymander should be overthrown. even
though the outcome in the Immediate I'm
tnre would not be good.

Editor Pilot,

The decision to hold democratic CON
ventlOn, to declare its policy In the
present eXlgency and to place candidates
in the field is a wise and just one. 1t is a
qualification TO every democrat who has
not doubted what his duty or bis party's
duty demanded. Some have doubted the
wisdom of this course because they had
thought their votes if they were to sup
port it, would be thrown away. Others
have favored it because thew had thought
1t would enable them to help defeat in an
indirect way Bryan without being Obliged
to vote directly for party whose prince,
Piles are and always have been repugnant
to them. Others again have favored it
as means and far the purpose of keep
ing the party alive. Some without due
consideration have hastily concluded to
surrender it's principles up to either it's
old or its new foe. But when the pain
full perplexties and doubts which the
gravity of the situation have raised have
been chased away it will be seen that the
decision is just and in this case or IN other
cases the path of justice Is the path of
| wisdom.
1t Is the duty of the democratic party
to MAINTAIN us ancient principles the
correctness of which science has proved,
history affirmed and experience confirmed.
1t is pot the duty of any democrat
| to consider which of two evils is the
greater and to choose the one which to
him seems the lesser. 1t is not his duty
to decide whether it be more wicked. de
| structIve and runious to depreciate the
value OF the currency than 1t is to ap-
preciate the value of cutlery. 1t IS
enough for him to know that to do either
is to threaten and MANAGE the country
is to violate the same identical demo
cratic principle. And is for the purpose
of maintaining such principle alone that
| its organization, its ralson d'etre, will find
| its Justification. It will be said that this
is poor politics. The answer is that to
maintain right principles is good politics.
| 1t will be said that It's cause is hopeless
The answer is, its cause IS no more hop
less than that Of the three hundred at
the past.
Senator Thurston speaking to the re
| publican convention recently said, In
| forty days they would have convinced
the people that it was wrong and wicked
/ to depreciate the value of the currency.
In sixty days democrats ought to be able
to convince them that it is just as wrong
and wicked to appreciate the value of
cutlery or other commodities, and to
dlspel those fatal errors, delusions and
doubts under which they are laboring.
And as fast as the scales drop from
their eyes all right minded moral and
patriotic men will rush to It's support,
because it is the only party now support
ing right principles and the only one
capable of averting imminent and i'm
pending disaster.

GEORGE FRED WILLIAMS of Massa-
chusetts is stumping Vermont for free
silver. He was at one time just as ardent
gold bug as he is now in opposition.
lie spoke then with the same force of
conviction he does now. He is making a
special appeal to farmers and says the
price of potatoes is low because he price
OF gold is high. Farmers in Wisconsin
know quite well why the price of pota.
toes is low, just as they know why hay
brings good price. This spring, farmers
III the potato growing sections of the
State offered their potatoes simply for
their removal from the cellars. Now
they get 20 cents per bushel. And silver
is still at work

THERE can he no doubt there are MANY

THERE can be no doubt there are many
abuses, which could be corrected by leg
Islation. which are in great part respon-
sible for the feeling OF unrest from which
has sprung the present threatening
crisis The people are dissatisfied and
have reason TO be so. The cause they
cannot locate. Three months ago it was
thought to be need of more tariff. PEG.
pie rushed to this idea and it seemed
that we were to be committed to policy
which could not fail to intensity our dis
tress. The people were honest in Their
search. The unanimity with which they
turned to high protection, while proving
their earnestness, showed likewise want
of discriminating Judgment and feverish
unrest. Just as quickly as the craze
was taken upit was dropped. II was the
mob impulse, frenzy under distress tax
ing the place of judgment. They drop
ped this craze to take up another. The
Chicago convention was honest in its
purpose, but not cool in its action nor
patient IN Its investigation.
The people who saw relief in high tar
if now saw il promised IN free silver and
flocked to the standard of the mining
kings, just as they had short time pre-
vIously swung IN line for the protected
industries. These sudden movements
are an unhealthy sign. They show that
something is wrong which must be rem
edled or the people will commit some act
which will prove injurious to themselves.
A return to Mckinleyism would be a
| step backward. A return to free coinage
would be worse. A defeat for both
| lines of policies will save IS from the
danger Inevitable TO their adoption. But
| that is not al that should be done. The
real source of the trouble should be found
| and the remedy applied.
| In the first place government must 60
out Of business, that is the business it is
now engaged in aside from what govern
ment is instituted for 1t should be no
commercial agent, no banking institution
no active competitor IN any industrial
line. Thus its functions would be sim
pllfed and people would regard it in the
proper light.
AS incidental to this simplitlcat1on.
trusts would be impossible as they exist
now by reason of perversion of govern
mental functions, and many things OF
which the people complain would vanish
because they have their source ID govern
menU's acting outside its legitimate line
The feeling Of disquletude is sign that
the poison has done its work Laws have
been too favorable to corporations and
too unmindful of the people. Protection
whether it be TO the manufacturer, the
mine owner, or the railway corporation is
poison for the industrial system. Let us
remove this poison by leading govern
ment back to first principles.

HERE Is quite newspaper contro-
versy going on between Senator Thur
ston and Senator Stewart. the former
having used clipping from newspaper
IN a speech he delivered at Madison,
charging Bryan with being employed hy
the bonanza mines to preach silver at q
very nice salary. Thurston SAYS the
charge was not his but that 1t should he
denied by Bryan If 1t ls untrue. Stewart
retorts, and very properly, that Thurs
ton should be ready with proofs of the
truth of the thing charged before GIVING
1t circulation.
Stewart, in addition to being more Wig
orous In his language, has the best of the
argument The man who aids in giving
currency to any statement derogatory TO
mans character should be wholly sat-
lsfied OF the truth of the thing charged
and should be ready to substantiate il.
What the public knows Of Bryan as an
honest man is decidedly IN his favor. No
doubt he has false ideas of finance. and
his Judgment is immature, but he is sim
cere In his beliefs even if wrong in his
conclusions.

sition to the debasement of a nations
currency. The development Of bust
ness is dramatically opposed to any
such step being taken and our own
cool sense, if we appeal to 1t, cannot
approve of any such movement.
The three years which we had silver
bullion at its market value basis for
certificates issued upon it at par value,
showed what little confidence people
had in silver The withdrawal of gold
from the national treasury showed
lack of confidence in the ability of the
United States to sustain an issue OF
$50, 100000 per year of treasury notes
based upon silver purchased by the
government at its bullion value. This
was equal to coming silver at a ratio
of 49, to l, u to l. "a to l and 26l to
/, but confidence could not be inpart
ed How much less so if silver was
coined at 16 to l without guaranty OF
the government?
1t is essential that confidence be re-
stored SO that money will again seek
investment and industry be restored
It cannot and will not be while this
uncertainty as to whether we shall
maintain the money standard of the
world exists, There is no man who
can get credit if it is known he is
willing and has the means to avoiC
his debts. Our business while such G
condition exists will be done in drib
let's and simply with reference to the
needs of the immediate present; dimi
mutton instead of enlargement of bust
ness; cessations to avoid loss and dis
continuance to escape ruin. No &C
count will be taken of the future ex
cept to dread it and distress Will in
crease with uncertainty.
Our gold is out OF circulation, ;
contraction in round numbers O
S600000,000. Our treasury note:
will follow a further contraction O
S155 100000 We speak Of the hare
times due to lack of money. But b.
one fell swoop, by threatened dis
arrangement of our finances, we hav,
contracted the currency S755,000,000
The Pilot does not believe there is
scarcity of money under present con
ditions and it takes the word of cele
brated economists for this who have
no purpose in classifying the situation
If so disposed no interest would result
to them by doing SO. A contraction
such as that now impending, if no
actually in effect, would be disastrou
and its occurring suddenly would b.
all the more so.
If confidence be restored, prosperit,
