ovERcRowDED PROFESSIONS.

The graduation of many young men
from the professional schools this
spring has brought forth more or less
discussion of the question of the over
crowded professions; and the discus
sion has even extended to the question
of the overcrowded ministry.
1t is a sad thought to know that of
the many thousands of young men
who are this summer leaving colleges
and universities and the professional
schools, filed with the hope and ambi-
ton of youth, the large majority of
them are doomed to partial failure in
life. Yet such is the case. They are
doomed to this failure because their
ambition is far beyond their abilities,
which fact they do not realize The
prizes in every profession and calling
are comparatively few while those who
strike for them are innumerabe. But
of the many who start out to secure
the great prizes of life comparatively
few attain that success which lies far,
far below the prizes they first put their
hearts on. One reason is that they
have not the patience to plod and p.od
and plod. After all the greatest power
in this world is that of plodding, and
even so great an authority AS Matthew
Arnold has said, substantially, that
genius itself is mainly the power of
continuous working. Young men just
think plodding means steady applica-
ton for perhaps year or two and that
then the success should come. 1t means
far more than that. 1t means steady
and untiring application for years and
years, and even. at the end o. that
time the success may BE only small.
The Encouragement that almos- inevi-
tably comes at first in The shape of lit
tie or no business will become an in
surmountable barrier to ell success if
brooded over for any length of time.
So far as those who are just entering
the professions are concerned, many of
whose fate is failure, if they were to
choose any other walk in life they
would find it equally as overcrowded as
the law, or medicine, or the ministry.
After all. life is a struggle for exist
ence. and man can escape it no more
than the beasts of the field or the fowls
of the air. And in the learned procss-
sions or in the work Of the day iaborer
X is the law of the survival Of the
fttest that rules. Those who are just
entering on life careers as well as those
who are wen along in them. should
strive to do their best, and whatever
their degree of success or failure ac-
cept it as cheerfully as possible, and
never envy anyone who has achieved
greater success.

SENATOR CANNoN'S AMEND
MENT REJECTED.

The senate refused to accept Sena-
tor Cannon's amendment to the tariff
bill providing for a bounty on agricul-
tural exports. If there be merit and
logic in the theory of protection then
Senator Cannon's amendment had
merit and logic. It was one of two
things: 1t was either the perfection of
protection or it was the reductio ad
absurdum Of protection. The argu-
ment the senator made when he first
introduced his amendment is logical.
and unanswerable if one accepts the
theory that the government should use
its taxing power TO aid the private citi-
zen in his business undertakings. OF
course the agricultural classes have
very largely borne the brunt of the
tariff burden for they have had to dis
pose of their surplus products in the
markets of the world and to meet any
and all competition, but they were not
permitted to purchase in the markets
of the world, but were restricted to the
home market" or if they purchased in
the markets of the world they were
forced IL pay a tribute of from % per
cent to 100 or 200 per cent of the value
of their purchase for the benefit of
those who controlled the home mar
ke."
If the government is going to under
take the task of seeing that all of its
citizens are prosperous and it finds that
while its policy makes one class pros
porous it fails to make another pros
porous, it becomes its duty to adopt
such a policy as will make the not pros
porous class prosperous. If certain
policy permits one class to help itself
indirectly out of the public treasury
and another class is incompetent to so
help itself, the latter should be aided
directly. This is precisely what Sena-
tor Cannon's amendment aimed to do,
as we understand it.
Protection being a sort of government
guano it should be spread thickest over
the poorest land. This the senate re-
fused to do when it rejected Senator
Cannons amendment.

Senator Mantle because he said the
woolgrowers were indignant at the
treatment given their interests, and
warned the Republicans that they
would lose the support of the wool
growers in the ensuing campaign .Of
course" says the Press, the senator
spoke of the third-class woolgrowers.
How much their interests have been
neglected since Nevada Jones got
through with the schedule the country
knows The man who would ask for
more protection than this crowd has
got would steal pennies from a blind
mans tin cup.
But, aside from this, does Senator
Mantle think it pays the various fringes
of the Republican party to get up and
browbeat the body of it in this fashion?
He saw the silver crowd try it. He
was one of the crowd. He heard SEN
ator Morrills words just a year ago
now: GO, bolt or burst He wisely
concluded not to do either when he
saw his colleagues thrown neck and
crop out of the St. Louis convention a
little less than a year ago now. The
party that smashed the silver ring is
not to be ccrrailed by the sheepherders
The tenderfeet have rebelled. The
desperate style is out of date. The
senator should abandon it"
Why shouldn't man who is demand
ing more and more protection steal
pennies out of blind mans cup if he
gets a chance? The protectionists of
the section that the Press represents
have been doing it for years. and It
has been upholding them in it. Where
in is it any more criminal when the
western protectionists ask for the
same privileges that their eastern
brethren have enjoyed for so many
years? If the west is getting light on
the tariff question. naturally 1T is get
ting it from the east.

The New York Journal speaks or the
arrival of Macmonnies' Bacchante in
New York in these terms:
1.-THE coming of the Bacchante to
New York affords reason TO congratu-
late Boston on the strength of her
moral sentiment and to hope it will
continue to flourish. If it had not been
that the good people of the Hub could
not endure in their midst a statue glo-
rifying intoxication the beautiful work
of Macmonnies would never have been
added to the art treasures of the me-
tropolis.
''The Bacchante is a very improper
person, but there are no Raines laws
for her or her set. There are several
of the Venus girls whose private Ii es
would not bear investigation, but peo-
pie in the larger cities have decided
to overlook the morality of the mar
bles in consideration of their beauty.
Humbly acknowledging the hopeless
ness of attempting to acclimate them
selves to the rigors of Bostonian pro-
priety, the worldly inhabitants of New
York are glad to profit by such gifts as
this masterpiece, which the French
government sought in vain to buy for
the Luxembourg galleries.
Then the next Seeley dinner that is
given Bacchante would come in real
handy. She has struck the right place
at last.
