guns, however. will be completed far in
advance of the battle ships.
'Of the 1853 guns required for the Sec
ondary batteries of the ships of the navy

plus of 1866 guns available for arming aux

Boston Journal.)

Perhaps it Is too much to expect our
giraffe contemporary. the Boston Her.
aid. to be consistent throughout a two
column editorial article, but it ought to
try to keep so far within bounds as not
to make its case unnecessarily ridicu-
lous.
In a very long argument the Herald of
yesterday undertook to prove that the
present advance in the prices of commod-
tiles over the abnormally low figures of
1896 is a hardship and misfortune That
is this was the burden of our contem-
porary's argument in the first column.
In the second column ii seems to have
fallen into most extraordinary aberra-
ton of mind. for in one place it speaks
of the ''lamentable state of the cotton
goods market as evinced by the lowest
prices of printing cloths ever known"
and in another place it declares that
under the fostering care of strictly
home market principles the price of
wheat would be worse than that of a
year ago.
Why 'worse?' Why Iamentable?''
How happens it that our neighbor so
totally forgets in the second column
what it has eXpounded in the first. that
increased prices are such 4 grievous
thing. and that low prices or cheapness
is the desirable ultima thule of human
existence? Has that eminent humorist
who has so often made the Herald a
dangerous rival of the comic weeklies
been entrusted with our friends edito-
rial management again? Or are both
high prices and low prices alike bad and
"lamentable" when they can he laid al
the door of the wicked Republicans? In
other words. is the Herald indulging in
one of its famous heads-I-win tails-you-
lose partisan arguments?
In any event. it must be acknowledged
that our gifted contemporary has made
no more brilliant contribution to the pub
lie gayety since its celebrated exploit of
coming out both for and against the
policy of restricting immigration in par
allel columns of the same editorial page

Mining for ice may become an i'm

D.. in the near future. According to
the statement of a western paper, an
immense bar in the Missouri river con-
stitutes a natural storehouse, which
will take years to empty. During last
