THE DEATH KNELL OF HOPE.

IRE DEA II NELL UT NIX L.
Monroe Waterman.
What monstrous thing is this we
hear? Over five months ago Mckinley.
the Advance Akent Of Prosperity,
was elected. the wOrkingman has been
saved from "fifty-cent dollars the
rational honor" has been protected,
the preservation of the existing goiu
standard Cor the next four years al
least has been assured. and Congress is
Row in the very act of exactly doub-
ling the tarEff on coal. and yet Senator
Eikins. one of the most praised anC
prominent Republican leaders In the
lard. declares that wages must come
down. More than that and worse
than that he affirms that wages IL
America stand against any revival or
business" Ii is no longer the threat
of free silver and the fear Of too much
money that is rJtining business, but 1t
Is wages that stand in the way OF Its
revival-therefore wages must come
down" If Senator Elkins knows what
he is talking about, if this is indeed the
Republican programme, then he has
sounded 90 the producing and tolllng
millions of America the death-knell OF
hcpe. The viIlGinOus deceit and treach-
cry bv which the people were betrayed
last fall is beginning TO be revealed II
all its blackness. Wages have been
coming down since the elecuon-they
have nor vet ceased to tall, aid the enc
nc nozn knOweth. This brutal declara-
ton of Senator Elkins could not nave
been made in a darker hour OF dismay
and distress. So securely enthroned
does the organized money power feel,
that il deems il a light thing to mock
nj rhe people when their fear cometh.
A SHAMEFUL DECEPTION.
Shepherdstown Register
What a shameful deception has been
praeticed upon the labOring men by the
Republican leaders, Last fall they
we're told that their only hope was IN
the election of Mr.. Mckinley as Presi-
dent. Work was tD be plentiful, wages
were TO Ee kept APP. sound money
was 10 be paid them, and prosperity
vas 70 be theirs. Now, just TWO months
from President Mck,inley'S Inaugural
ton. we find Senator ,Elkins, one of the
chief aDOstles of sound money and pro-
lection. getting ready to reduce wages.
He is not now in possession of any in
formation. we suppose, that he did not
have last fall. yet he would not have
dared so say then in West Virginia or
any other place in the United States
that wages in America stand against
any revival Of business.
Mr.. EIkins is in an unpleasant pre-
dicament. He either wtllfully deceived
the workiagmen last Fall when he
promised them prosperity under Mr.,
Mckinley. or else he is now guilty OF
p most discredi,able attempt to beat
down the hire Of the laborer without
lust cause.

Ifit be true that Mr.. Elkins said pros
perity could come TO the country only
through the reduction of wages, 1t Is
4 confession which he dared not make
before the election last fall In his
Eaeeches he promised the laboring men
better wages and steadier employment
if Mckinley was elected. Had he told
the voters their wages would be reduc-

Mr.. Dyar has been prominently con-

build an electric railroad from Detroit
to Port Huron. The latter enterprise
is what is believed to have caused his

One of the lines of policy de-
clared in the American Union
Psrty's platform which ought to
be eagerly supported in the outer
districts is that of making all
the landings strictly public pro.

old grievance, dating far back OF
the present regime. With the
rapid development of the country's

With the landings made absolute

MISTAKEN GENIUS.

Estimates of things present and
things to come made in the first
half of this century, even by the
most eminent thinkers and pub
licists, events have proved gener-
ally worthless except as warnings
for all time against being wise in
ones own conceit. When Daniel
Webster, as quoted by a contem-
porary, fifty years ago denounced
everything looking toward the
opening up of the Far West, he
did not dream of the stores of
hidden wealth on the Pacific
Coast, which were to draw all the
world there; nor of the almost in
fnite potentialities of steam Car.
riage and irrigation works in
developing waste lands and
making the desert blossom as the
rose. 1t was not long before "the
godlike Dan" is said to have 80
eioquently cursed the western
wilds, that the president of the
British Association for the Ad.
yancement Of Science, in opening
q session OF that most advanced
body of scientists the world then
Knew, ridiculed as utterly absurd
snd visionary the notion
chat vessels could be propelled
across the Atlantic by steam. The
world moves and the strongest hu-
man mentality cannot retard its
motion or say = any more than to
che waves on the ocean shore:
s'Thus far shalt thou come and no
farther" Those wise orators and
writer's in the United States who
are today spurning the proposition
that their nation should take in
what they stigmatise as this CON

There is nothing in which the
Government should be more con-
sentative than the matter of har-
Dor privileges. Some great mis-
takes were made in the past with
Honolulu harbor. Rights were
granted to private hands which
should have been perpetually
reserved to the public. Ground
was filled up which ought to have
been dredged out. These blunders
cannot now be recti6ed, but no
fresh ones should be committed.
The action of the Government re-
Gently, in avoiding bargain that
might involve further surrender
Of navigation facilities, is to be
commended and taken as an
earnest of fixed policy.

Typewriting is advocated in
some places now to be taught in
the common schools. 1t is very
good idea, though the equipment
would be expensive. The art
would not be taught chiefly as a
branch of handicraft, for there is
no trouble to intelligent persons
in picking it up after leaving
school, when they may have actual
use for it. Where the machine
writing would show its value is in
spelling, composition and all
written exercises, as both word
forms and ideas would be more
sharply defined in the cbild's
mind when presented in the plain
Roman letters of books. As most
children take kindly to mechanical
work of one sort or another, the
exercise on the typewriter would
increase interest in their lessons,
besides being a cure for the lassi-
tude that often prevails in
schoolroom. The matter is worth
considering for adoption in the
advanced grades of our schools.
