Faith and Dogma

Faith is a giant, serene and wise,
With starlit brow and an angels eyes;
Mansions arise where his feet have trod
On the mighty rock Of the grace of God.
Dogma the dwarf, is a stubborn elf,
Who hugs all tenets that please himself;
He only builds for the worlds vast deeds
Frail huts Oh the sand OF improved creeds

There seems no doubt that the afore-
said Lou Payn will go through as insur-
ance commissioner of New York. Gov.
Black is for him, and whether Payn has
released Black or not it makes small diff
ference, or no difference, to politician
like the new governor who looks some
what like Lincoln, and who is evidently a
Thoroughbred politician. Payn has been a
lobbyist, and while he has worn no badge
Ia that effect, everybody has known him
and has made allowance and has been able
To get out of his way, if his company
seemed undesirable. And So the great
harm OF hypocrisy and indirection has
not been done at all events 1t is different
with some other lobbyists Some are rail
road presidents and appear before legis-
lative committees, or in the inside reCeSses
of hotel suites, as guardians of the public
good, looking out all the time for the main
chance, ami doing it for money, and big
money.
1t is quite natural that Gov. Black, and
all of the Republican politicians who are
about him in Albany, the great and only
Plat included, should want to see Payn
through. He has been very serviceable to
them, and he has been scrviceable to Platt,
especially in the bitter fight of 81, when
two men US big as Platt and Conkling were
suppIanted i'll the Senate by two as small
rs Miller and Lapham. Then there is
nothing wicked about Payn, as New York
standards go. If the State, like its chief
city, has no civic spirit, and does not care
whether it is pure or not, and doesn't
care who knows that Ii doesn't care whether
it is pure ornot, these so-called Objectionable
persons who come TO the top are merely
representative.

Mr.. WeadC ock says ex-Congressman
Henry NJ. Youmans, now a senator in the
Michigan legislature, has intI oducCd a bill
that is attracting attention throughout
the lake region. Youmans is a Democrat,
but his bill is said I o have the sanction of
Gov. Pingree, and that is something that
would-he laws very much need a Lansing.
The Youmans proposition is to make Isle
Royale, which is the largest island in the
great lakes excepting the Canadian Grand
Manito.lln, Il Van Dieman's land for
wolverine convicts.
Isle Eoyale lies near the Canadian shore
of Lake Superior. 1t is cold, rocky and
uninhabited. Formerly copper mines were
worked there, but these were abandoned
because found unprofitable. It's banks are
precipitoIs. 1t would make a cheerless
lone for convicts, and one from which
il would be next to impossible To escape.
The Youmans plan is TO send "lifers'' to
this Michigan Saint Helena and make them
work in the mines He expects to destroy
convict competition IN manufacturing en-
terprises and TO lessen the escapes from

The news of the defeat OF Senator
Dubois for reelection reached the Senate
late yesterday afternoon 1t was heavy
news for the Democratic Senators, who
have been from the first much interested
in his struggle. Both Chairman Jones and
Chairman Faulkner expressed sincere re-
gret at Dubois defeat. Too bad'' was
the Comment Of Senator Mills Most OF
the PopuIists were also warm sympathizers
with Dubois.
On the Republican side of the Senate
the news was received with every evil
dence of delight. Lodge rejoiced exceed
ingly. Chandler and Hale expressed salts
faction, and Senator Shoup made no effort
to conceal his great pleasure. The first
intelligence of the result came in a private
telegram TO him, which a moment later he
took before the Republican steering com
mittee.
The McNab who is so frequently men,
toned in the dispatches from Boise as
manipulating the legislature for Mark
Hanna and Senator Shoup is the latter's
business partner. He is good man,
says the Senator, land must be very in
fluentiai if he can control a legislature
in which there is only one real Republi-

The Cuban war has already had large
effect OH the cigars you smoke, and it
probably Will have much more if IL isn't
over soon. No Havana tobacco is now
imported, or has been for some time. 1t
is q question if the amount already in the
country will last until we can get more
with the probabilities against it, Already
we have to pay 35 or 40 per cent more
for Havana tobacco, and already we can
not get at any price some grades, for in
stance, light Havana wrappers. The eff
feet Of this is that the cigar you get now
for 10 cents does not contain as much
Havana as the ten center of two years
ago, say. In another two years perhaps
you won't get any Havana III il. We put
a fine grade Of Ohio tobacco more largely
into our cigars just now. An expert
smoker will hardly be able to tell the
difference. The good that comes out
of the Cuban war III the tobacco business
is for the American growers. They sell
more tobacco and get better prices for
it.-N. Sicklcs, gar Manufacturer.

The new Senator is said to be farmer,
living in Nez Perces county, in the Idaho
panhandle. He is man fgoodreputation,
but is said not to have been heretofore
conspicuous in politics. He is a Scandi-
navan by birth and will be the second Of
that nationality to reach the Senate His
course IN the new Senate is problematic
He will undoubtedly be as strong a friend
of silver as any man in the body But the
Republicans are hopeful that be will vote
against tariff bill.
One result of the present contest is the
certainty that in 1900 there will be
sizzling struggle between Shoup and Du-
bois for the seat now held by the former
Senator Mcmillan yesterday submitted a
memorial from Henry Nelson Loud, n
prominent lumberman and silver Re
publican, of Au Sable. 1t was ordered
printed as a document. 1t is an elab-
crate argument for a universal standard
dollar. He proposes that all nations shall
coinage a universal standard dollar, COM
posed of .s065 grammes of gold tone-half
of a gold 5-franc piece, and 12 / 2
grammes of silver, (one-half of silver
5-franc piece, 300 fine, at the ratio of
Is 12 to 1, and that this shall, in 1900,
be declared the universal standard Of
money. He also suggests that 10000
of these coins be struck at the United
States mint as a practical test of actual
coinage, and the expense be met out of
the appropriation for the monetary Con-
ference.
