Why Halt at Seeds?

The main objection to the appropria-
ton by Congress of $I3O,O0O for the
distribution of seed must rest upon the
ground of inequality. Mr. Fitzgerald
Of Boston proposed a broadening of the
scope of the distribution by adding
fish hooks and bait for the fishermen of
his district, bat this would not 80 far
enough. The average man does not
wish to be left out. Why should not
the government issue pens and paper
to writers. brushes and paints to oartists
colts to stock breeders, eggs to poultry
raisers and ultimately even brains TO
Congressmen?-BoSt Globe.

Tanner DiSgusfs the peonyc

The spectacle of the Governor of Iii
nois shooting trapped pigeons and pre-
siding at cake walks. while the Legisla-
ture which met in response to his call
is fooling away the peoples money at
the rate of over a thousand dollars a
day. has ceased to have any humor II
it for the people of this State.
Such fragrant betrayal of public trust
eNcites popular indignation and dis
gust. Such criminal neglect of public
duty amazes even those who have beel
inclined to make excuses for the Gov
ernOr. His conduct can be explained
by one or both of two theories only
he has absolutely no comprehension OF
the dignity and responsibility of his
office. or else he is determined to out
rage public sentiment and disgrace the

da. Western Canada. before taking up
their home there visited the country as
delegates. They reported to the Gov
ernment of the Dominion of Canada
the result of their observations, and
from this report extracts have been
taken. which are published below:
I'VE have visited number of most
desirable locations, and are highly
pleased with the country as a whole,
il being beyond our highest eXpecta-
tions. We find here a prosperous and
well-contented lot of people. They
have comfortable lfomes. and their vast
fields of wheat and other crops in addi-
ton to their herds of choice cattle, in
dicate prosperity in the full sense of
the word. In conversation with the
farmers throughout our trip we learned
that the majority of them came here
with very limited means, and some with
no more than enough to bring them
here. and they are now well-to-do. They
all claim that this is the only country
for poor man, or one with little
means, to get a start and make home
for himself and family. AS you are
aware. we were little shaky and un-
decided before leaving Detroit, but
have determined since that we, with
our friends, will make this country our
future home. 1t is far from being the
wilderness we had pictured 1t to be; 1t
Is. instead, land having all the facili-
ties required by modern civilization,
such as railroads, markets, stores,
churches, schools. ETC., in fact, an ideal
home for those having the future well
fare of themselves and families at
heart"
The Messrs. Striovski selected the
Alameda district, but what they say
of it applies in a general way to most
other districts in that vast country.
They speak of the fuel, which is to be
had in great quantities, of the water
that can be had by digging from ten to
twenty feet, and of the good grazing
land to be had almost everywhere.
There is plenty of wood for building
timber and for fuel, while coal is con-
venient, and sells at low prices at the
mines. In driving through the country
they passed many fine patches of wild
and say they can speak
highly of their flavor, as they could not
resist the temptation TO stop and eat.

THE PENSION WAR.

The conflict over the pension laws,
pension lists and pension frauds con-
tinues TO rage with violence in the Re-
publican camp. On the one hand are
those who look TO the political support
of veterans and have been making use
of it for their own benefit, and on the
other hand are those whose constituent
cies and home strength demand finan-
cial retrenchment in government eX-
penditures. To remodel the pension
system, as some of the economists suS-
geSt, would vacate half the seats on
the Republican side in either hall Of
Congress, but TO continue the expen-
diture without investigation and -e-
form, or at least a pretense OF il, would
be equally fatal to many Il Senator or
Representative. 1t is claimed by some
that. although it would cost 100000
to publish the entire pension roll, it
would save fifty millions n year in the
frauds such publication would expose,
but that Is mere assertion, not support
ed by either proof or probability. Such
a publication, however. might satisfy
popular clamor and silence much COM
plant.
Both the Democratic and the Repub
lican party are pledged to support of
the pension system. which neither can
escape. When Presidential election is
approaching too much assurance can
not be given by politicians that 1t will
not only be preserved, but enlarged
and extended. The Democratic Presi-
dental convention Of 1896 declared EN-
phatically against arbitrary purging of
the pension rolls, and insisted that en-
listment and service should be the sole
test; while the Republican convention
of the same year claimed for the sol
diers fair treatment and generous
and denounced the Pension
Bureau as deserving condemnation for
reducing pensions.
But the Republicans have y&he Pres-
dent and Congress, and it is for them
to deal with the pension business

Kinley's Words and Deeds,

President Mckinley manifests live
ly interest in the welfare of the wage
worker. He wants American work
men to have living wage. He is sor-
ry that the people are suffering in New
England. He thinks it is pity that
such a state of affairs should exist as
that which now obtains among the cot
ton mill operatives. At least these ex-
pressiOns Of opinion are credited to the
President by a correspondent of the
New York Journal.
Doubtless the Presidents emotional
nature has been touched by the stories
of destitutioI and suffering which
come to him from New England
Doubtless. for the moment, he really
feels sorry for those unfortunate work
ers thrown out of employment in the
dead of winter. But emotion is not
practical philanthropy; it is not even
justice.
If President Mckinley is sorry for
the workingmen why does he place
enemies to labor in positions of power?
Why did he appoint Governor GriggS
Attorney General: What is John w.
Griggs' record? He voted against
bill to make wages a preferred debt In
cases of insolvency. He voted against
a bill to establish half holiday on
Saturday. He voted against a bill to
prevent child labor in factories Oper-
ating intricate and dangerous machin-
cry. He voted against bill making it
illegal for an employer to prevent his
employees from becoming members of
labor organizations. He voted against
a bill requiring fire escapes on factory
buildings more than three stories high.
Mckinley pities the laboring man
and appoints John w. Griggs Attorney
