Russell Sage, the veteran New
York financier, is reported to have
said that the defeat of Mark Hanna
in his fight to succeed himself as
United States Senator from Ohio
would be a great blow to business. AS
it is pretty well understood that Uncle
Russell's idea of Cuisines" is the
manipulation of stocks and the fleece
ing of lambs" it might be considered
by the many other and more whole
some business interests of the country
that Marks retirement to private life
would not be an unmiXed evil. The
New York papers state that the Wall
Street element is much worked up
over the situation in Ohio. regarding
Hanna as the special champion of
p corporate influence. In fact the rea-
Sons given by the champions of Nc
Kinley's right bower for his retention
in office are the most powerful that
could possibly be urged by the farm
ers and wage earners of this country
for his defeat.

CURIOUS ISN'T 1T ?

The Prohibition party are careful
to keep up their organization in the
county, and run ticket at each
election, to exhibit the sincerity of
their opposition to the liquor traffic
&c. According to them, neither of
the older parties can be trusted in
the matter. Yet, at the late election
thirty six of the Republican majority
of fifty-four for State Senator, were
Prohibition votes. DR.. Gorsuch was
cut by just that number of Prohibi-
tionists, as compared with the State
ticket, which everyone knows is the
true standard of the party strength.
Is this a symptom that the men who
boast that they vote as they pray"
are getting weary of IA Quixotic cru
SADIE against common sense of no
practical advantage to anyone? All
we respectfully ask, in view of this
fact is that as Prohibitionists exercise
the right to kick over the
traces at their own sweet will, the
leaders will please accord to us the
privilege of honestly entertaining and
expressing our views in regard to the
the liquor traffic, without being
charged with moral inconsistency.

what Was Gladstone's Life Work?

In his home rule measures Mr.. Glad
stone set his hand for the first time to an
important undertaking Of constructive
craftsmanship and the verdict must be
that he was not equal to it, says Tho At
lantic. His life work has been in reform
ing craftsmanship. In that he has had no
peer. He has been, we may say, the great
est of those peaceful rcvoutionists who
lift and carry nations forward out of old
conditions into new, who reconcile their
institutions with advancing time and
make them participant in tho progress of
the world. But this reparotive work
most useful perhaps that true statesman
ship can do, wins commonly less of tho
admiration Of mankind than the framing
of political systems and tho building of
states. Bismarck and Cavour, among
Gladstone's contemporaries, are more than
likely to rank above him in present ard
future opinion as belonging to an order Of
statesmen that is superior in its kind.
The justice Of that opinion is far from
sure 1t turns mostly upon question Of
weight in moral qualities that are widely
opposed. But the fact of it is to be rccog
nzcd, and so, too, is the fact that when
Gladstone attempted serious work of
constructive craftsmanship he failed.

sum of 800 / had disposed of all my

around with mo all day. As ] was com
ing across the Long bridge l met Jersey
artileryman He stopped me and asked
me If had any pics. At first was tempt
ed to tell him hadn't but he lifted the
lid Of my big basket and saw the one pie.
Then he rammed his hand deep into his
trousers pocket and pulled out a bill.
Grabbing the pic with ono hand, he showed
the bill ut mo and went on. / called out
that there was some change coming to
him.

was bad and there was yet some doubt
about the bill. Tho next day took it to

A curious Illustration of the journalistic
maginativencss carried to u high develop
ment was had in dispatch to n city paper
from its correspondent in u southern city,
He was telegraphing some facts in the
local history of the late Ensign Baglcy,
slain in battle at Cardenas. He was"
photographed the correspondent, Sin his
twenty third year and was the first officer
TO fall in the Spanish American war His
grandfather was tho first man shot in the
Mexican war In 1915, and his father, n ma
jor In the Confederate service, was the first
man slain in the conflict between the
north and south. Thus history repeats It,
self. " This read very smoothly to the
night editor who gathered these interest
ing details under n striking headline and
sent it up. The eye of the managing editor
IN his proofs noted tho interim that must
have occurred between the death Of the

GENERAL A. V. kACTZ, U. s. a.
envy graduate. Our armies must always
be made up Of volunteers, and they cannot
be handled as can tho traditional regu
lars. Tho volunteer is not machine.
He is a man and can only be managed
by the exercise Of tact. Tact as between
man and man does not enter in TO the
training of the average WsSt Pointer.
The first lesson taught the cadet at the
academy is subserviency, and the second
is domination by sort Of divine right.
The rigid class distinctions at West
Point never leave the graduate who re-
mains in service. Yet they have no
place in fighting army where, ont of
1000, 900 men only about $1,000 are
officers, tho rest being citizen patriots.
Since the civil war the West Pointer
has been ready to pay difference to the
soldier who learned his trade at the
front, He knows that practice is better
than theory. 1t would be the same if
cadets were to enter the academy after
three years service in the ranks Of the
army, some of the time possibly passed
in actual campaigning. When the West
Pointer who began in the ranks came to
take his place as an officer, the superb
GRITTY would be more marked. He would
know how to handle soldiers and how
much could be got out of them, for he
has been one of them himself.
