CHURCH BELLS.

Often upon some Alpine height
Where cooler breezes blow
I've listened with keen delight
To Ginning bells below
There music rose so sweet, so clear,
Its memory with me dwells
And rushes over me when / hear
The Sunday morning bells.
Or from cathedral spire of stone,
High soaring in the air,
The great bells sobbing, throbbing ton,
Has moved my soul to prayer.
The grandeur of that lofty choir
hear from tower and dome,
Afar or near, whene'er | hear
The Sabbath bells at home.
Such pious memories indeed,
Their moulten notes recall,
/ find really do not need
To 60 to church at all.
They drive away anu keep at bay
III humor and the vapors,
And so listen as stay
In bed and read the papers.

FLASHES OF FRENCH WIT,
WISDOM AND WICKEDNESS.

The world IS a masked hall.


The world is a masked ball
Fools never understand people of
wit.
Chances are the first billet.doux of
love.
A revolution is the lava Of civili-
cation.
Chance is nickname for Provi-
dence.
Whoever is suspicious iucites
treason.
Presumption is the daughter Of ig-
norance
The ruses Of women multiply with
their years,
The world boasts that it can render
men happy.
Practice is to theory what feet are
to the head.
Let us make no vows, but let us
act as il we had.
Science seldom renders men ami
able women, never.
Gratitude is cross-road that leads
quickly to love.
God speaks to our hearts through
the voice of remorse.
Fanaticism is to religion what hy-
pocrisy is to virtue.
Our happiness is an unhappiness
more or less consoled.
We like to give iii the sunlight, ard
to receive in the dark.
There are some that are born with
a sorrow in the heart
1t is not the weathercock that
changes it is the wind.
Women are in the moral world what
flowers are in the physical.
When we combat that which we
love, sooner or later we succumb.
To love is to admire with the heart;
TO admire is to love with the mind.
We attract hearts by the qualities
we display; we retain them by the
qualities we possess.
That country may be truly free,
the people should be all philosophers,
and the rulers all gods.
Women should be careful of their
conduct, for appearances sometimes
injure them as much as faults.
Beauty and ugliness disappear
equally under the wrinkles of age:
one is lost in them, the other hidden.
The fool maintains an error with
the assurance OF a man who can never
be mistaken: the sensible man defends
a truth with the circumspection of
man who may be mistaken.
The reading of romances will always
be the favorite amusement of women:
old. they pcruse them to recall what
they have experienced; young, to an
ticipate what they wish to experience.

The Montgomery Advertiser says,
"Senator Daniel was one OF the cen
trail figures in the recent Virginia
convention. He was Endorsed for re-
election along with an Endorsement
Of the Chicago platform. How his
face must burn every time he thinks
OF his resolution in the United States
Senate in July, 1895, commencing
Mr.. Cleveland for his efforts to pre-
serve law and order during the riot
Gus times at Chicago. The Chicago
convention platform of 1896 denounc-
ed the very thing which Senator Dan
iel warmly commended and which at
the time met almost universal APP
proval. Mr.. Daniel in his speech be-
fore the convention must have been
thinking of this inconsistency, for he
is reported as saying, and was ap-
plauded, too. that he believed that il
had been better in the late campaign
had some Of the planks of the Chi.
cago platform been left off. Senator
Morgan has recently expressed an
opinion of the same sort.

Another Good Protection Argument.

Another Good Protection Argument.
Brooklyn Eagle and. Demo-.
The increase in the price of wheat
has suggested to people not accustom-
ed to think OF such things that there
may be disadvantages as well as
advantages in high prices If the
bakers are compelled to pay moie for
flour they will either make their
loaves of bread smaller or charge more
for them, and the laborers in the
cities will pay for the prosperity OF
the farmers. If the high price OF
wheat should be only speculative aud
temporary, it will not be a burden on
the consumers, but if it is permanent,
as it seems to be, the people who use
the wheat will have to pay for it.
Thus. it appears that prosperity
works both ways in the beginning.
But there are mitigating circumstan.
ces in the prospects OF increased COM
fort for the farmers. The people in
the towns consume what is produced
on the farms and the people i'll the
country use what is made in the city.
When the conntrymen have money
to spend they give work to the peo-
Pile in the towns and the townspeople
then have money with which TO buy
bread at the increased price. Bread
has not gone up yet, however, and
the loaves are not smaller than usual.
But if the bakers should find it neces-
sary to put less flour in loaf that
they sell for the fixed price, no one
should make the mistake OF railing
against the Bread Trust. The man
who is working six days a week can
better afford to buy bread at ten cents
a loaf than the man working three
DAYS a week at FIVE cents loaf. But
there has already been talk of taking
the food from the mouths of the poor,
and there will be more of it.

The difference a Year Has Made.

st. Louis Globe Democrat (Itep.).
At this time last year the country
was ringing with the oratory OF the
silverites. The curbstone talker was
abroad in the land, and he had APP
parently probed all problems OF I'm
ance to the bottom. Assertion, bold
and absolutely confident in itself,
ruled the utterances of the free coin
age army. Professor Coin was quot
ed everywhere and was on the stump
himself. Wheat and silver weretwins.
The rupee oil India was alleged to be
destroying the market of the Ameri-
can farmer Mexico was pointed to
as the land of the silver standard
and prosperity. The tariff question
was derided as an irrelevant issue,
with no power to better the condition
of affairs. 1t was declared that with
out a return to the silver standard
times must grow worse and prices
drop lower, especially on the farm.
On these assumptions the changes
were rung on street corners, vacant
lots, and wherever a group could be
gathered. Every professor Of finance
was also prophet. He had fathom.
ed the profundities OF all financial
systems and knew the future equally
well.

difference in Treatment OF Bosses.

Springfield Republican.
The Maryland Republicans are SUI
perior to the Maryland Democrats in
their treatment OF bosses. German s
recent performance in platform calls
themes is we'll known. The Demo
cratic party merely groveled at his
feet. But Senator Wellington, in the
Republican convention, was summari-
ly squelched.
Martinsburg herald. [volume] (Martinsburg, W. Va.) 1881-1920, 1897-09-04

A half century of com nerce is a
good deal better index to the capacity
of a country than short period oftwo
or three years. The free-traders who
are trotting out figures to show that
our sales of American manufactures
abroad increased under the Wilson
law would do we'll to look over the
history of the past half century before
they go very far into these state
ments. If they do so they will find
that in the quarter of century of low
tariff the balance OF trade was almost
constantly against the United States,
while in the quarter of a century OF
protective tariff the balance of trade
was largely in our favor. In the
twenty-five years since 1872 there
have been but five years i'll which our
exports did not exceed our imports,
while in the twenty-five years pre-
ceding that there were but two years
in which the imports were not in ex-
cess of the exports. The excess of
exports over imports in the last
quarter of a century was about So
200, 600, 600, while the excess of inn
ports over exports in the preceding
quarter OF century Of low tariff was
about 81, 400, 600, 900.

Developments which show that the
men who have kept themselves in the
public eye and public Office through
the operations of the Democratic
party in the past few years are now

they may be able to present new and

The recent expectation of Ameri-
can tin-plate that is sold in foreign
markets is a more eloquent and force
full answer to the free traders asser.
tons than columns of newspaper or
oratorical statements. 1t is only six
years since Democrats were insisting
that no amount of protection would
enable American manufacturers to
successfully produce tin-plate, yet in
that brief time they have PARTIALLY
supplied the markets of the United
States and are now reaching out for
those of the world.
