money required to take up the
outstanding Z per cent orders can
be obtained from the State school
fund at 4 per cent per annum, the
interest being payable on: July /
of each year, a clear saving Of 3
per cent per annum, which in five
years would pay for good town
building.
The State will also accept the

Democratic Rulers.

Democratic Rulers.
5. me IF the English Tory newspapers
and one or two Of the French and Ger
man imperialistic sheets are trying to
show that the selection Of N. Loubet to
be president Of France is the latest ex-
ample Of the dire inability Of republics
to bring great men to the front. The
Saturday Review points out that the
presidents Of the United States have all
been commonplace men. This is proba-
bly, true from the Matthew Arnold or
Carlyle point Of view None Of them
has been great in the academic sense.
nor have they been exalted in the same
sense that Caesar or Napoleon OF Fred
erick was, but from the democratic
point of view that has been an inesti-
mable advantage, not only to the coun-
try that selected them, but to the men
themselves. It is hard to imagine what
would have been the fate of our .coun
try if Lincoln had proved as great as
Alaric. or even as William the Conquer
or. or if Washington had possessed the
particular order Of genius that has pre-
served the name of the first Napoleon
in the bloody records of the world: The
undoubted merit of the men that the
republic has chosen to conduct it's affairs
has been that commonplace ability that
exactly represented the mass of the peo-
pie themselves and their well being
That was the browning glory of Lincoln

never forget NJ Loubet comes out OF
the people. He seems to possess just the
homely and sterling integrity that
thinks more of the public good than OF
his own personal ambition and the
brilliant men who are scheming for the

Sudden Death IN Cities.

Man in his modern cities trades away
the little discomforts of life for the
large possibilities of sudden death. He
hypothecates his security for his passing
comfort. He lives on 4 mine of enor-
nous extent and of tremendous hidden
energies. His promenade is over cleo
trical currents and Has mains and enor-
nous boilers. His showiest hotels are
often built as one builds fre-with
combustibles laid crosswise and igniting
currents running through it in all d.
rections. He is hurled By lightning to
his business hoisted to his Office by en-
ginery and flung back again to his home
by hurting systems of conveyance. He
lives and moves continually with his
ear cooked for the alarm bell of the car
or the fire engine. But he saves time
and takes the chances. He is we'll aware
that his fellows are crushed and burned
to death every year. but he goes on lay
ing down more wires. turning on more
steam and adding another story to his
buildings. If he forgets himself for
second, he is gone. After that the am
bulance and the coroner are on the
jump. In the midst of these comforts
fire is the enemy that the dweller in
the city seems to fear the least, and it
is in the city as we now construct it
that fire is the NEST terrible and the
swiftest agent to take advantage of our
slightest negligence. In any other place
than the city the escape from burn
ing building is comparatively easy. even
when that building is Of wood. In the
city it is often impossible. The moment
astructure like the Windsor hotel takes
fire the great problem is not how to put
the fire out. but how to got the people
out. But such fact does not affect no.

the burning hotel generally take refuge
in another of the same kind: In fact,
city life breeds kind Of carelessness OF
unthinking bravado peculiar to itself

who were praised every day in the pa

another adds to this the information
that woman cannot preserve the best

The Russian secret military service
is the best in Europe. AS an evidence
Of this there is a good story connected
with the Toulon explosion. It seems
that the Toulon disaster was part of a
diabolical scheme which comprised also
the gunpowder magazine at St. Peters
burg. Both magazines were to be blown
mp on the same day, but the day before
the disaster at Toulon the Russian min
lister received a dispatch in cipher
warning him of the attempt. He was
in bed at the time, but he got up i'm
mediately and drove to the powder
magazine, where he had the officials,
guards and workmen alarmed After
the closest inspection of everything.
he had them all called together and ad-
dressed them as follows; "The inspec-
tion has proved highly satisfactory: l
am perfectly we'll pleased with you and
the arrangement, and as token of
good will I give all of you, even the
guards. a three days holiday. You can
go in an hour" Within that hour
other guards were telegraphed for, and
two companies Of sappers arrived. The
next morning news of the Toulon dis
aster came, but there was no. disaster
at the Russian magazine.

IT is beyond doubt that Matthew
Stanley Quay, who was appointed by
Governor Stone, of Pennsylvania, to
fill the United States Senatorial va
cancy in that State will receive the
support of all the party leaders when
the contest as to his right to a seat in
that body comes up next session.
Quay failed to get enough votes in the
Legislature to elect him and so caused
a deadlock and no Senator was chosen.
Gov. Stone therenpon appointed Quay
Senator, thereby establishing prece-
cent that other States will likely fol-
low if it is sustained. Such Senators
and party men like Hanna, Elkins,
Allison, Hoar, Aldrich and Fairbanks
are openly in favor of seating Quay and
it is improbable that this example will
have other than the effect of bringing
the younger or newer members into
line Quay is one of the big guns of
the administration and as he had
sufficient backing to get out of that
bank scandal without scar, it is not
likely that he will lack the same when
it comes to getting place in the Sen
ate in opposition to the wishes of the
majority of the people of the State of
PENNSYLVANIA.

Democratic Success IN Baltimore
