preferred the breezy West, and went
to Omaha in 1856. He became city at
torney, was a member Of the Legisla-
ture, and paid no small atteetion to pol

did not win him from his law practice.
He aided In the framing and adoption
OF the Constitution. Like his father, he
has taken much interest In public edu-
cation and served some time as regent
of the high schools. Mr.. Woolworth
has written somewhat, principally on
lines concerned with the law and State
economics. He has published several
addresses on education and social SCI

A Military Guild.

The Mohammedan population Of tina
Turkish Empire has been very aptly
compared to an immense religious con-
fraternity; 1t Is, In fact, a vast military
guild or brotherhood, according to the
author Of '@rhe Sultan and His Sub
jects," bound to obey the commands OF its
supreme chiefs, the Sheik-ul-Islam and
the Sultan. Every Turk ought, In a
certain sense, to be a priest and a war
rior. Remembering this fact, we can
readily understand the ease with which
the spirit Of fanaticism Is reused IN
those portions of the empire where the
Turks are in the majority, and the
ferocity with which an otherwise
docile and somewhat Indifferent natur-
ed people will behave under the In
fiuence of what may call religious IN
tOxication.

this 1900. 100000 pounds of sugar
which II had accumulated waiting for
the advance which 1t could make by
the new tarin. Had Secretary Cages
recommendation been accepted by
Congress 1t would have compelled the
trust to pay In internal revenue taxes
probably $15,000,OOO upon the sugar
which 1t had piled up In Its warehous-
es. That 1t was possible that 1t might
be inserted by the conferees, even
though not adopted by the House or
Senate, Is shown by the fact that the
House and Senate have since accept
ed the retaliatory amendment which
was inserted by the conferees, although
not prepared by the House or Senate.
That the uncertainty as to whether
this proposed tax on the sugar In the.
hands Of the trust would or would not
be imposed made many investors hest
tate Is apparent, and that the certainty
that 1t would not be imposed assured
them Of the prospective ability of the
trust to pay large dividends during the
coming year is equally APPARENT. This.
assurance, of course, came when the
action Of the conferees was made pub
lie, and 1t was known that Secretary
Cages recommendation had not been
needed. This knowledge showed fully
and conclusively to those following the
subject closely-first, that the Sugar
Trust would make this large profit by
reason of the increased duty on sugar.
and, second, that it would not be COM.

What a Contrast!


A comparison Of President Cieve-
lands lack Of good faith with Presi-
dent McKinley's prompt and specific
action:
There Is a contrast involved in the
tariff legislation just completed by the
Republican party and that which the
Democratic party gave us three years
ago. We do not refer to the difference
between the two measure in point of
form or principle, but to the manner
in which the two parties approached
the problem and achieved their re-
spective purposes.
The campaign of 1892, like that of
1888, was fought out upon the tariff
issue. pure and simple. Mr.. Cleveland
had spent the four years of his retire
ment in declaiming against the infa-
nous Republican idea Of protection,
the robbery Of the toiling masses for
the benefit Of the powerful and
wealthy, the blight upon our commerce,
the general wickedness of the whole
thing.
When Mr.. Cleveland was inaugural
ed March 4, 1893, the country natur-
ally expected him to call Congress to-
gether without moments delay, and
put an end to situation which he had
SO persistently and so violently de-
nounced as an intolerable wrong to the
American people.
AS a matter of fact. however. Mr..
Cleveland appears to have lost his in
terest in revenue reform the moment
1t had served his purpose as stepping
stone to the Presidency. He not only
failed to hasten the repeal Of the Nc
Kinley act, and substitute for 1t such
legislation as would redeem his prom
ises. but he actually convened Congress
in extra session and ! limited that
branch of the government to the arrest
Of silver coinage-a policy which the
Democratic masses did not favor, and
the announcement Of which year ear
lier would have defeated him for the
Chicago nomination.
The ta.iff was taken up by Congress
at it's regular session, some months
later, and in August, seventeen months
dittE LIS ihuuSuiutiOh, tic NttcOh-Ooh-
man bill was passed-a futile and in
adequate abortion, the only meritori-
Gus features of which were the Senate
amendments, forced through against
the most obstinate opposition OF Mr..
Cleveland and his satellites.
The contrast presented by Mr.. Nc
Kinley and the Republican party needs
very little comment. Mr.. Mckinley
has been President only little over
four months, and at his instigation and
through his prompt exercise OF the au-
thority contided to him, new tariff
measure has already been formulated,
discussed, amended, and, practically,
enacted into law. 1t may not be the
sort Of measure the Democrats want,
but II Is just what was expected of the
Republican party, framed on the lines
that Republican leaders have always
advocated, and in absolute accord with
their invariable pledges and profess
sions. Mr.. Mckinley has disappointed
no one. He has done exactly what the
people who elected him looked for. He
has kept faith with himself and his fol-
lowers, and he has done 1t with cour-
age, expedition and sincerity. Wheth-
or II will, In Its operation, bring to the
country the relief and the happiness
predicted by its authors is beside the

the profits would be great and the divi-
dends large.
The result was the advance in sugar
stock, about which there has been SO
much talk and denunciatioD, and which
advance was not due to any perma-
nent advantage, which the new tariff
bill gives to the trust, for, on the con-
trary, the difference between raw and
refined sugars under the new bill, as
already indicated, is 121a cents per
hundred pounds. while under the viii

The tariff bill as finally agreed upon
by the conferees restores House rates
on wool, within a very slight fraction Of
House rates on sugar. This destroys
the last opportunity of the Democratic
party to assert that the bill is favora-

time gives to the wool producers of the
country the protection which they had
originally been given reason to suppose
that they would receive.
