A MAN by the name of Walker
seems to have been the main guy
in bringing about the resignation OF
President Andrews, of the Brown
University, and he admits that it
was done on account of the stand
DR.. Andrews took on the silver
question. He also says that DR..
Andrews position onthe wage ques-
ton is bad. It is not stated what
the DIR. advocates in the wage ques-
ton, but as he is thorough believer
in the free coinage of silver it is safe
to say that he believes in fair wages
for fair days labor. This is prob
ably something that the blue blood
ed plutocratic directors Of the uni
versity cannot understand. The
case is one, however, that the peo-
pie of the country will bear in mind
for many day, and the time will
come when such high handed con-
duct in suppressing free speech will
be resented in a manner that will
make the plutocrats think there are
few Americans left in this country.

death Of his wife, by marrying the
granddaughter of his brother. She
is Is and he is So years old. He
told a friend that he was lonely
without his wife, whom he loved
dearly, but had no idea of marry
ing again so soon, as he did not
care to show any disrespect to her
memory, but his three children,
who are themselves all married, be-
gan to make objections to his TAX
ing another wife, and he just made
up his mind to act promptly.

The Louisiana Supreme Court
has revoked valuable water front
franchise given to railroad on the
ground that the city had no right
to grant for the private profit of a
corporation that which belonged to
the whole people.
That is good law, sound prin-
ciple, 1t is to be hoped that it will
stand, but is very doubtful, for the
Supreme Court of the United States
is quite sensitive concerning the
aggressions of the people upon the
divine right of the corporations

officers of the company to place the
big vessel, which is the crack ship

ONE thing that decided the in
surance companies to carry no risks
un men going to Alaska is the fact
that local companies have been
formed to insure mems lives for
$4,000 and stake the men with
81 900 to go to Klondyke on pros
pecting trips. These companies were
to be in on all finds, and if the pros
pector lost his life on the trip they
stood to win about $500 anyway.

Tar latest official estimate Of the

THE latest official estimate of the
population of the United States is
100000. This is made by the
actuary of the Treasury, an officer
whose duty it is, at fixed intervals,
to report on the per capita circula-
ton of money in the United States,
He estimates that the present hold
ings of money are $22.53 for every
man, woman and child in the Unit
ed States.
Holdings is a good word. The
money is held mainly by less than
one hundred thousandth part Of
the people. 1t is not in circulation,
but is tied up in reserve funds,
banks and rich mems strong boxes,
and it is not right to estimate that
there is any such an amount Of
money per capita in circulation, fol-
they know it is not fact.

ONE thing that was done while
the new tariff bill was before the
conference committee is sure to be
widely commended. That is the in
sertion of a clause prohibiting the
manufacturers of tobacco or cigar
cites offering any sort of prize or
premium with their goods. The
only pity is that ssimilar law
could not be made to apply to
everything else, for there is little
doubt that the introduction of lot
terry methods into business which
has grown to a great evil, is demon
alizing in its effects upon our peo-
pie as whole. -E1.

THE yellow fever is killing hun
dreds of the Spanish troops in
Cuba. The Spaniards are not ac-
climated and the disease is fatal to
them. It is fostered, also, by the
filthy condition of the cities. The
insurgent forces have Havana sur
rounded, and a bloody battle is
liable to take place at any moment
Altogether life on the island is not
as pleasant as it might be. Wey-
ler's soldiers are ragged, lily fed,
have had no pay, and are DESERVING
whenever they can, but the butcher
never fails to make war on defense

such a murderous warfare to be car
