Late Elections Were Encouraging.

10 e.cry silver voter, east or west.
On the other hand, the admins
tration is whissling dolefully to
keep up its courage. Hundreds Of
thousands Of republicans staid
away from the polls to mark their
rebuke OF the administrations i'm
periallstic policy, while outside OF
South Dakota, the silver vote
showed a general increase.
n .braska re endorsed Bryan by
a majotity even larger than that
given him in the memorable strug
gle Of 1896. The administration
had hoped to discredit the great
silver leader by a humiliating re
verse in his own state. The fusion
majority Of ~, 900 shows how com
plc,ciy the republicans failed.
In Ohio the administration ex.
erted every influence at its COM
mand, but for the first time in
many years the republican vote
represented the minority. In 1896
Mcklnlcy's majority was $4,000.
Last weeks elections changed this
to minority Of nearly SO. 900.
Although Nash, the republican
candidate for governor, was elect
cd by a good plurality, the tremcn-
dous vote cast for ones, the Indc-
pendent candidate, was direct
and emphatic protest of the labor
vote of Ohio against trusts, imper-
ialism and Hanna ism. Coupling
the ones vote to that of Mclean,
the democratic candidate,-t
two candidates representing anti
administration policies it shows
an anti-repnblican and anti admin
istration majority of over $4,000.
The vote being divided between
Mclean and Jones is all that has
saved Ohio to the admintration.
With minority of $4,000 votes
the republican press is whistling
to keep up courage and prating
about chow nobly Ohio stood by
the administration"
In 1896 Maryland gave McKin-
ley a plurality of $4,000. Last
week. vote returned it to the dem
ocratic fold with a majority Of fully
900 against the administration,
admitting OF no doubt as to where
it will stand next year.
With the governorship still in
doubt in Kentucky, the Legislature
is democratic in both branches
and will send Blackburn to the
United States senate to take the
place of a gold standard democrat.
Even if the republicans should
win the governorship, which is cx,
tremely doubtful, it would be a
victory absolutely barren of bene-
fetal results to the republicans.
The vote in Kentucky is distinctly
silver victory. Had it not been
for local factional fights among the
democrats the state would have
been overwhelmingly democratic.
In presidential years the party in
that state is always united. 1t can
be safely counted for Bryan next
year.
In Massachusetts Mckinley S
majority was 10000 in 90. Last
week it was IS, 900, the city of Bos,
ton returning a democratic major
ity.
The usual republican majorities
in Pennsylvania and Iowa show a
corresponding decrease, with dem
ocratic gains all along the line.
And in South Dakota there is nc
occasion for republican jolliGca-
ton. No bonhres have been kim

evidently intend to convey the idea
that there has been too much of it pro-
duced, and you exercise your ingenuity
in suggesting devices by which silver
production may be curtailed. First, a
se1gnlorage or government tax, "greater
or less" that is, raised to whatever
point may be necessary to discourage
silver mining; and, second, a govern
nlent prohibition to the location of new
mines, which you assume will be effec-
twill soon be exhausted" Now, if
this had been said by Bynum and Eckles
or Cleveland or any other of the gold
standard Canks, l should not have been
surprised and certainly should not have
thought of criticising it. But in the
mouth of a professed silver advocate it
is such a giving away of position and
argument as to threaten the most
serious injury, unless exposed and de-
nounced by those in whose behalf it is
assumed to be spoken. We are pre-
pared to meet our open enemies but we
cannot safely tolerate the Endorsement
of their theories by those regarded as
our advocates and protesting loyalty to
the cause of silver restoration. Posi-
bly,, Mr.. Newlands, you may be able to
give some explanation of your remark
able language and if so you cannot
begin to make it too soon. If
these extracts fairly present your
views, then you have no right longer
to pose as a friend of silver. Your
scheme is not only impracticable,
one of those i~llusory devices "to do
something for silver" which are contin-
ually bobbing up in goldbug literature,
but is an absolute surrender of all that
is vital III silver advocacy. When a man
who assume to be a champion of silver
talks about a REGULATION of coinage" to
preserve parity and deprecates any ex-
p~ansion of the money volume by which
prices might be increased and absolutely
suggests a limitation upon production
as q means Of preserving the purchasing
power of gold, he belongs on the other
side and if he persists in carry
ing a silver flag, deserves a court
martial. If you are in favor of the
free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer at the present ratio by the
United States independently of other
nations, YOU should take the first
opportunity to say so distinctly. There
is no halfway house in which you, more
than any one else, can take shelter. The
issue is simple and admits OF no compro-
mise. Those who are unqualihedly for
it are on one side, and those who are not
including the whole scale from Cleve-
land to Secretary Gage, are on the other
side. Mr.. Newlands, you can choose
our side, but protest against an efor,
to occupy both. 1t is as impossible to
serve both God and Mammon now as i,
was two thousand years ago.
Yours respectfully,
THOMAS WREN.

Of this I can only say that the man
who could deliberately write it and yet
pretend to be a friend of silver places a
very low estimate upon the intelligence
of those by whom he thinks it will be
read. Mr.. Newlands, you seem O only
anxious to indorse the views of Mr.. Gage
as to the gold standard, but you are
ready with a new suggestion in its sup
port. Not only is it to be guaranteed by
a regulation of coinage, but to be assured
by limitation upon silver production. 1t
is not only free coinage, but free mining
which you perceive to be dangerous. If
you think that l misrepresent you,
please re-read the above quotation and
particularly this sentence:
THE RESULT HAS BEEN,
THEREFORE, TO SUBJECT THESE
MINES TO THE EXPLOITATION
OF TREMENDOUS ENERGY AND
ENTERPRISE, AND HAS PRO
DUCED A FLOOD OF SILVER
WHERE FORMERLY THERE WAS
A DROUTH."

Grand Trunk Add. New Dining cars.


The Grand Trunk Railway has added two
additional dining cars tOits equipment. They
are models OF artistic beauty and materially
add to the pleasure of travelling over this
popular system. With improved hrst-class
coaches and the finest sleeping-cars that are
run on any through trains in America, it was
In the way of dining cars. The management,
therefore, placed these two new dining sa-
Ions on the middle and western divisions,
running between Suspension Bridge and Chi
cago.
The general exterior appearance of the
cars is similar to the new standard day
coaches which are run on the Grand Trunk
System. The windows are glazed with
heavy plate glass, all are double, being dust
proof when shut. The dining room is large,
and will seat thirty persons comfortably.
The chairs are of oak, upholstered in leather.
The windows are decorated with costly dra-
perles, and the openings into the dining room
are provided with ornamental portieres. The
floors are carpeted with handsomely de-
signed Wilton throughout the whole length
OF the car, and the vestibuled floors are COW
cred with rubber tiling.
A very handsome and beautifully designed
sldeboard is placed at one end of the dining
room. China and linen closets, Wardrobes
and white metal Washstands are in evidence
in accordance with modern practice The
cars are heated with hot water coils in con-
nection with steam from the engine and
lighted by Acme lamps, and the trimmings
throughout are of solid bronze, most beauti-
fully designed. Altogether they are superb
creations of skilled workmanship and greatly
admired by all who see them.

Why CannibaIs Eat Men,

Some gruesome information has been
collected by member of the European
medical fraternity in relation to tribes
that eat men. \ Frenchman figures that
20 per cent. of ali cannibals eat the dead
in order to glorify them; 10 per cent. eat
great warriors in order that they may
inherit their courage, and eat dead chill
dren in order to renew their youth; ten
per cent. partake of their near relatives
from religious motives, either in con-
nection with initiatory rites or to glor-
ify deities, and five per cent. feast IN
order to avenge themselves upon their
enemies. Those who deyour human
flesh because of famine are reckoned as
IS per cent. In short, deducting all
these. there remains only portion of
"a per cent. who partake of human
flesh because they prefer it to other
means of alimentation. IN the heart of

RABBITS IN BELGIUM.
The Animals Are Carefully Bred and
Thousands of Carcasses Sold
Weekly in London.

The breeding of domestic rabbits for
the purposes of food and for export is
more or less common with the Belgian
peasantry, and in the province of West
Flanders they are raised in such guam
titles that thousands of dressed car
casses are shipped weekly to the Lon
don market. The import of rabbits
from Belgium into the United Kingdom
during the past five years have averaged
$4,000 cwt. yearly, of the estimated.
value of e234,O0O, and it is calculated
that this weight represents an annual
shipment of about 100000 dressed rab-
bits.
Five kinds of domesticated rabbits
are bred in Belgium-namely the or
dinary Flemish, the Flemish giant, the
Russian, the silvered and the Angora
varieties. The native rabbits of Bel
gium, when wild, are very small, and
do not exceed three pounds in weight,
and their skins, while of excellent quail
ity, are too small to be profitable for
manufacturers of hatters' fur. The or
dinay Flemish domesticated variety is

careful breeding. It's live weight ranges
from six to eight pounds. Large num-
bers are killed for Belgian consump-
ton about Easter time, when they are
four or five months of age, and their
dressed weight is from three to four
pounds.
The rabbits are bred in cages or
L
mediately upon the ground, ashes are
usually scattered Oh the spot, when
layer Of loose stones is placed on the
ashes, and finally the stones are covered
with straw. This method keeps the
cage in a sanitary condition. For fat
tening purposes a space of at least two
feet square is allotted to each rabbit,
and the breeding cages are about one
yard square. Males and females are
separated when three months old, and
kept apart until they reach the ag~ of
five or six months. The young eight
or ten at time) are kept with the
mother for three weeks and then sepa-
rated. The ordinary Flemish rabbits
breed four times annually. For breed
ing the first specimens are selected, but
it is not customary to retain any spe-
cial rabbits for this purpose.
The rabbits are usually fed three
times daily. The morning meal is white
or black bread; later, towards noon,
grass or greens is provided, and in the
evening mixture of boiled potato peel
ings and bran. Care is taken that the
food given to the rabbits is quite dry;
no liquid food is provided except in the
very hot weather. Dry food and dry
straw on which to sleep are considered
to be prime requisites for successful
breeding.
The season for the export trade is
from the beginning of September to
the middle of November, when consid-
cradle quantities are shipped to Eng
land, skinned and packed in wooden
crates containing so or 60 carcasses.
The rabbit is then from five to seven
months old, and its dressed weight is
from four pounds to five pounds.-Jour-
nal of Agriculture.

PATRIOTISM.

What is it, this force that impels US,
Which masters our sense and our WILL
That starties our uttermost being
With the sting of subtle thrill
When the Flag is unfurled!
The throb which strains at our heart
chords,
This might that is greater tnan love,
Till the tenderest woman caresseS
The eagle instead of the dove,
When the Flag is assailed?
For which men yis'd their blood in the
trenches,
Accept fever and famine and pain?
Whose ineffable peace to the dying
Is a smile on the lips of the slain,
When the Flag has been served?
That we call it patriot ardor''
Is jingle of idle sound;
But the thing itself-what is it,
Holding flesh and spirit bound.
Which the Flag inspires?
As holy as fire from the altar,
AS high as prophetic thought,
As deep as eternity's spaces,
From Gods mind into ours is 1t wrought,
This power of the Flag.

Krupp's Army of Employees.

At the beginning of this year there
were employed at Krupp's works, at
Essen, 41,750 persons, including 3,210
officials. The cast steel works at Essen
alone employ 25,133 persons, the Cru
son works 3,54S, the Germania wharf,
at Kiel, 2,726. and the works at Mep-
pen 10,343. The consumption of coal
and coke at the cast steel works at Es.
sen amounted last year to 786,415 tons,
and at all the works of the firm to 1,199,.
610 tons, or about 1000 tons daily.
