THE tramp evil is growing in serious
ness. 1t is no longer question of ex-
pense, bnt how to prevent the commission
OF outrage. 10 certain portions OF the
south it is unsafe for white woman to
travel a country road alone on account
of the uncomfortable passion of the me-
groes. The same thing is becoming true
in the northern states because of the
tramp. The tramp is we'll equipped for
outrages of this nature. He is here to-
day and elsewhere tomorrow and no one
cares to study the personality Of these
foul birds of passage They can commit
crime in the country with impunity as the
description which 1t is possible to give of
criminal tramp is not such as will lead
to his detection, He is emboldened BY
success and is wholly without pity OF
conscience. What will his outrages lead
to? PROFESSIONALLY to conditions s,mi
lar to those which prevail in the south
with respect to the negro ravisher, with
the difference that In the north TIE deter
mination to let no guilty man escape
will lead to the humiliation of the tramp
THIS Is what murder and outrage ale IN
questionably leading to. TIE remedy is
fearful one, but 1t is clearly foreshadow
ed. The tramp is doomed. He has
by his acts passed sentence upon
himself and indignant humanity will
execute It,

THE great Remenyi had An audience

The great Remenyi had an audience
Tuesday night at the Opera House as
appreciatiye as it was large. The en-
thusiasm he aroused was e Just trib-
ute to his marvellous talent There is
something IN the music of a violin.
when touched by a master hand, be-
yond power of description. 1t is more
thar melody as it has the fervent feel
rs of spiritual emotion and the deep
pathos Of human feeling. 1t is the IN
syllabled language of the soul,-vi-
brant beauty whose touch is exalting.
No other instrument has the sympa-
thetic fervoror the capacity for sound
ing the most profound depths of the
human heart, awakening its most deli
cate susceptibiljties. Such a master
is Remenyi, who seems obllvlous of
everything while he plays 1t Is not
his grandeur that affects as much as
it is the tender quality of strains
which claims response in evelv fiber OF
/ the listener and tunes his frame to the
pitch of ecstasy He is absorbed, not
in the mechanical performance, but
IN the matchless melody he evokes
There is no mechanism; it is fountain
OF delicious sound playing with the
abandon of inexhaustible resource.
The programme was above a num-
Der of the audience, 1T least, it was
above the writer; but it Was not lacking
In interest for this reason. Remenyi's
violin speaks to all no matter how
classic its diction The low, sweet
notes almost, "a sigh for their sad
ness" touched the experience of every
one as we'll as the inspiriting and lofty
strains of the Marseillaise. But it wa.
when the heart beat of longing for the
old plantation found expression in thu
sweetly sad notes of the Suwannee
that the hush of tine audience showed
sympathy SO absorbing that 1t was al
most the anguished feeling which
burst forth in the ''resistless eloquenc,
of VICE." and gave to melody that in
comparable song which will live unit
memory ceases to cling to the ole
| folks at home.

HE failure of prosperity to materialIze
IN response to political exigencies has
proved to be of some value to us. We
are now inclined to attribute the depres.
sion TO legitimate causes and no one ex-
hiblts lack of sense sufficient to ascribe
the era OF hard times to Cleveland's cleo
ton with the exception OF few who have
learned their song pare like, and cannot
drop the lines until some other stereo-
typed expression takes it's place.
There are few who will seriously claim
that a protective tariff will aid in the
least IN restoring good times, The con-
tident notes OF prediction which we,s
heard directly after election have now the
tremor OF dorbt, and people generally
are coming to the conclusion that LEXIS
iation Is but minor element of prosper
ity. That is one important gain and
largely compensates for the distress we
are enduring.
After all Is net our distress more i'm.
aginary than real? Is 1t not distress IN
relative rather than an actual sense?
Was tie prosperity Of 1892 built on a
substantial basis or was it largely bub-
bic which burst when subjected to the
slightest pressure? 1t was an era OF
speculation and people fancy themselves
rich because the speculative fever WAS
IN their blood and fortunes were made
rapidly. But for every fortune that was
made one WIS lost. 1t was not creation
OF wealth; 1t was gambling. The losers
ID the game have since been paying trib-
ute to the winners. 1t was period of
dlstuI bance, time when the grasp on
legitimate lines of business grew weak IN
the wild desire to be in the whirlpool of
speculation. Property had fictitious
value, and people who fancied themselves
rich spent money freely. Economy was
thrown TO the winds and the wild orgies
OF speculation made extravaganza appear
like commonplace expenditure The
present is compared with that feverish
ontburst, and now that we are proceed
ing cautiously and limiting our expenses
to our actual needs, the times appear
hard. But We are learning, slowly though
surely, that industry is the fountain of
genuine prosperity and that production
Is the source of wealth.
The Oshkosh Northwestern says that
many Of the men working on the electric
railway In that city appear like men I'M
used to manual labor. They have learned
the lesson that there is no disgrace in
honest labor and they will be the better
men for knowing it.

THERE is something strikingly similar
In the positions in which Cleveland was
and Reed now is placed. The similitude
extends to the character of the two men
which makes their attitude on public
questions OF large import TO national
honor as stable rs though fixed by fate
When congress INDUCED 10 some act OF
extreme foolishness. while Cleveland was
president, the certainty that his hand
would be laid hea, / on the brood of
Folly without father bred" satisfied the
people that legislation of a reprehensibe
nature was impossible while the veto
power was iu his hands. and now the
country looks to the immoyable Reed for
safety. 1t declined to honor him with
the presidency but builds is hope on
these strong elements of character which
he has shown he possesses.

TRAMPs in the neighborhood OF Por-
tage have become so troublesome that
the mayor has issued request to the
citizens to refrain from giving them
money or food. They camp near the city
and purchase beer from money they Sc
cure by begging. When under the IN
tiuence OF beer they sally out and de-
mand money of every one they meet, Oft
en- enforcing their request by threats,
They stone passing trains and make raids
on isolated houses. They have created a
reign OF terror in the city. 90 Monday
they made an assault on a railroad engln.
eer, but here they caught Tartar. The
railroad men came to the rescue OF their
comrade and the tramps were cleaned
out.

though not to growing grain He had
potatoes and beans we'll overground,

The weather report for the week says
the frosts have been quite general

than emulate the deeds of their fathers
Fred Grant seems to think it wholly M
necessary to do n manly thing, but at the

which Is due to merit, simply because he
