It's Character and Not Luck.

st. Louis Globe Democrat Rep.).
Character is not luck. A man may
be lucky in knowing the full value
of good character. but unless he has
the moral strength to build and pre-.
serve it his luck counts for nothing
One of the advantages of the Republi.
can party is the knowledge the reople
have OF its character. It's past record
is an assurance Of high achievements
in the future. 1t stands for stability
and progress. When, therefore, it il
given control of the Government ev
cry business man feels new confidence
aud an impulse to spread out his ven.
lures instead of contracting them. As
this increase Of activity and good faith
comes even before the Republicans
begin to legislste, the adherents O
other parties call it luck But it /:
plainly an example Of the value Of :
good name and of a reputation fol
tested capacity.

FLASHES OF FRENCH WIT,
WISDOM AND WICKEDNESS.

Where pride begins, love ends.
Tears are the strength of women.
Vanity is the quicksand OF reason.
To be happy is not to enjoy; it is
not to suffer.
Love makes time pass, and time
makes love pass.
Grief counts the seconds happiness
forgets the hours.
Friendship is shield that blunts
the darts of adversely.
A prude ought to be condemned to
meet only indiscreet lovers.
The virtue of women Is often the
love of reputation and quiet.
Whoever has loved knows all that
life contains Of joy and sorrow.
The yoke of love is sometimes
heavier than that of the virtues.
Better to have never loved, than to
have loved unhappily, or to have half
loved
Better to know the darker sides of
life than to slumber in dangerous IL
lusions.
The prayers Of a lover are often
more inperious than the menaces of
a whole world.
There are those who have nothing
chaste but their ears, and nothing
virtuous but their tongues.
A man must be fool, who does
not succeed III making a woman be-
lieve that which flatters her.
The nome mt past is no longer, the
future may never be: the present is
all OF which man is the master.
Philosophy triumphs easily over
evils past and evils to come; but pres
ent evils triumph over philosophy.
The more you do the more you get:
the more you get the more you want:
the more you want the less you do.
Modesty secretly awakes desire:
il is the most chaste, the riost deli
cate, and the most attractive Of all
provocations.
Those who seek happiness in osten-
tation and dissipation, are like those
who prefer the light OF candle to the
splendor of the sun.
The only true and firm friendship
is that between man and woman, be
cause it is the only affection exempt
from actual or possible rivalry.
We are always more disposed to
laugh at nonsense than at genuine
wit; because the nonsense is more
agreeable to us, being more conform
able to our own natures: foo,s. loye
folly, and wise men wisdom.

Governor Tillman made some thrill
ing remarks the other day to little
band of free-silver Trojans in New
York State He told them that any
body who said that prosperity was
coming was niserably mistaken, and
that the present boom in wheat and
the general-prosperity movement was
nothing but a "hot-balloon" affair,
which would soon collapse into moth
ing. In fact, the wheat advance was
simply movement on the part OF
designing men to aid Mark Hanna s
political aspirations, and anyway
New Workers would suffer by it, fol-
it would increase the price of their
bread. If the Governor had half an
eye for viewing the signs of the times,
he could see that the day has passed
for this kind of talk.

A careful estimate of the shortage
of food supply in Europe shows that
in rye and potatoes the conditions are
as bad as in wheat. Rye is as impor-
tant an article as wheat in many
European countries, and the same is,
of course, true of potatoes. The
shortage in wheat, rye, and potatoes
in Europe is now estimated as fol-
lows:

Silver Orator Bland has put his foot
in it again He has grown hot under
the collar because of the wheat and
silver" talk of the anti free coinagists,
and attempts to explain that the in
crease in wheat prices is simply the
result of shortage abroad. In doing
this, however, he gives away his
whole argument about silver, for the
statement that wheat is high because
of a short supply in an admission that
over production would cause low
prices. That is the whole story in a
nutshell, Mr.. Bland. The low prices
of the past few years were the result
of an increased supply and cheaper
means of production and transporta-
ton.

Let's see! the free-coinage advocates
last year promised the farmer $1.oo a
bushel for wheat if they would dilute
the currency of the country with
silver, but admitted they did not
know how much the dollar would be
worth. We know how much it is
worth-4o cents. Yet the farmers
have got their dollar bushel, and
got it in good money too. This shows
the wisdom Of rejecting new-fangled
theories without careful test as to
their probable effect when put into
operation.

shows that the importations of Il

fibers, feathers. chicory. cattle,
oranges. preserved fruit, hides, beans,
rice, and sugar-during June, 1897,
were more than so per cent greater
than in June, 1895. amounting to
$23, 500, 600, against $4,000, 900 the

controlled by the elements IN the

The Pllotboats.

The Fernandlna people have most
unceremoniously backed down on the
proposition of Capt. Duncan Wright
to match the Oracle against the Fran
ces Elizabeth for wager of $500.
They claim that they will not race off
Brunswick bar, because 1t would be
advertising Brunswick. The rather
doubtful championship that the Fran
ces Elizabeth won in 1895, when she
took the prize from the Telegram,
simply because the Brunswick boat
failed of turning one buoy, otherwise
outsailing her Florida competitor all
along the course, leaves the Frances
Elizabeth people in the attitude of re-
fusing to defend their title.
