Cloture In the Senate.

1t may be said without disrespect to Mr..
Mason, or without disparagement OF his
proposition. per Sc, that the time was nos
happily chosen for the Introduction OF his
cloture resolution. Instantly. of course, II
was Interpreted to bear upon the coming
tariff debate. and yet without sufficient
Justification existing for bracketing the two
subjects No threats Of obstruction to the
tariff bill have been made. On the con-
trary Mr.. Jones of Arkansas, who will
lead the op9o sition to the bill. has expressly
stated that the opposition will not unduly
delay the fiEal vote. More than this could
not have been asked. More than this can
not be secured by Mr.. Mason's resolution.
or anything akin to 1t.
Everything in the Senate should make
for an early disposition of the one question
before it which. in Importance to the coun-
try. far outweighs all other questions. Any
delay about that matter, on any account,
would be both mistake and misfortune.
The mode of procedure in the Senate can
wait. Controversy on that point Is not
rev. nor as We have just stated. is the
point pressing at this time. Filibustering
Is not on the cards against the tariff bill.
Debate is. and debate will be In order. The
republican leaders expect debate, and so
any quarter that the bill be damned
through
As for partisanship-the mere effort to
nag and trip up the party responsible for
legislaticn-that also should wait. There
will be plenty of time for fighting. Con-
gress will meet in regular session next
December. and issues will be abundant
The campaign of 1895 will grow largely out
of the contentious of that session. The
financial question will come up then. and
the new House will be chosen with the
debates of the regular session fresh in the
peoples ears. Fervid defamation at this
time. therefore. will signify nothing at that
time. Better save the powder until there is
actual need of burning 1t. and when every
discharge will be likely. or one side or the
other. to do some execution.
The extra session of the Fifty-third Con-
gress was unduly protracted by the intro
duction of side issues into the debates, and
the result was very expensive to the coun-
try. The country was IN acute distress
then. and desired early action on the bust
ness before Congress. At time when the
country is almost in as great distress,
shall we have a repetition of that appalling
history?

A Joyous Omen.


A monster bird Of prophecy, reported from
the west,
Set all our hopes in motion and laid all our
fears to rest;
Momentous enterprises which had found
encouragement
Will surely gain new force by the example
that is lent.
For, who can doubt the springtime OF a
golden age has come,
That we're basking in the sunlight of the
true millennium
There came tide of promise sweeping DER
all earthly things
From the song that swelled enhancing.
when the airship tapped its wings.
In week or two this earth will talk with
Msrs; and 1t is plain
They'll arrar ge 1t so farmer with a shot
gun can bring rain.
The nations who have hitherto oppressed
the weak and fought
VIII be ready to desist because they realize
they ought.
For currency the world will find a satisfy
ing plan:
Each person will be prosperous as any
other man.
The righteous one with deuces will defeat
the rogue with kings
IT'S the message that was caroled when
the airship tapped its wings.

The custom which permits English
parents to arrange marriages for their
children used to be observed In man
ner that would have provoked rebel
lion in an American household. The
following story is told of a relative
by Lady Langford, the original of Lady
Kew in Thackeray's "Newcomes:
Lady Langford had only once seen
her cousin, Lord Langford, when he
came to visit her grandmother, and
the next day the old lady told her she
was to marry him.
Very we'll, grandmamma, but
when?"
II never in my life heard such an
impertinent question" said the grand
mother What business is it of yours
when you are to marry him? You
will marry him when tell you. How
ever, whenever you hear me order six
horses to the carriage, you may know
that you are going to be married"
And SO it was.

Great Good Fortune.

Good luck is of all kinds, some of
it queer. The San Francisco Post. for
instance, tells how a laboring man in
that city found himself fortunate in a
way most unexpected.
When the noon whistles blew the
other day, he sat down on box in the
shade, thrust his hand into his over
coat pocket, looked surprised, and then
Remarked:
I've lost my lunch"
He pondered over his predicament a
moment, and then added:
We'll, I've got something to drink,
anyway" and he pulled bottle of COT
fee out OF his other pocket.
He slowly drained the bottle, threw
it aside, and sat lost in thought for a
moment. Suddenly he sprang up,
slapped his thigh, and exclaimed:
It's good job lost my lunch!"
Why SOP" inquired another work.

Our Foreign Trade.

The report of the bureau of statistics
for December completed an extraord-
mary record. The exports for the cal
endar year amounted to more than ST.
0O0, 100000, the largest total on rec
ord. The volume of imports was ma
terially smaller than usual, and the
result of these two movements was
an excess of exports over imports
amounting for the single month of
December to nearly sec, 000, 900, and for
the year to over s325.000,000. This is
the largest trade balance in our favor

Nothing could be fairer, more
philanthropic or carry more JOY to
the afflicted than the generous offer
of the honored and distinguished
chemist, T. A. Slocum, of New
York City.
The fact has been established
that he has discovered a reliable
and absolute cure for consumption,
and all bronchial, throat, lung and
chest diseases, catarrhal affections,
general decline and weakness, loss
of flesh and all conditions of vast

merits known, he will send THREE

his newly discovered remedies to
any afflicted reader of this paper.
Already his ''new scientific sys-

cured thousands of apparently
hopeless cases by it's timely use,
and it seems necessary and hui
name duty, therefore. to bring such
facts to the attention of all invalids
who may be benefited thereby.
He considers it not only his pro-
fessional, but his religious duty
a duty which he owes to suffering
humanity-to donate his infallible
cure to all afflicted.

the age of miracles is past, and yet
