The above largely tells its own story
1t seems to establish the rule that II
city ranks higher in postal business than
in population, it also does In bank clear
ings, which represent volume of business.
The greatest wonder noted Is that re-
vealed by Kansas City, which is twenty
second in popula ton and thirteenth in
postal business, and ninth in bank clear
ings. The rule is for postal business to
rank higher than bank clearings, and
the exception which goes to prove this
rule while at the same time giving rea-
son for its existence, is furnished by New
Orleans, twelfth in population, ms
teenth in postal business and eleventh
in bank clearings- Postal receipts ara
not only a criterion Of general business

above him in private or public station
and In the superiority which attaches to
knowledge and position.
g is really a remarkable circumstance
thSS, while a few years ago there was
great cutlery against unrestricted immi-
grafton. and while men who professed to
speak for the laboring population had
much to say about the danger to Ameri-
can standards of life, and to the perma-
nence of employment of Americans as
the result of the constant inflow of for
eigners, there is hardly word heard any
where today about a restricted immigra-
ton.
The men who will decide the great con-
test which is now being fought out for
control of our general government for
the next four years are in a large proper
ton foreigners by birth. They will cast
a much larger proportion of votes, &C
cording to their numbers, than will the
native citizens. The foreign-born man
may not individually entertain as intelli-
gent an understanding of the institutions
under which he lives as his native
brother, but it IS the experience of most
observers that, man for man, he pays a
much more devoted attention to his du-
ties as citizen than does the native
American.
Nexer before in the history of political
campaigning was there so little of the
spirit of race hatred or race prejudice
manifested on either side as there is in
this one. Neither religion nor nationality
enters into 1T in any measure whatever.
Give 10 the average foreign-born voter
candidate nominated by his party Of
American stock, and no man will receive
his vote mere cordially than such a can
didate. The lines on which the present
contest is conducted do not mark a. single
sectional, religious or national division.
The foreigner casting his vote has one
dominating idea in every instance, and
that is that the republican-democrati
institutions of the country must be main
tanned at every hazard, and that he will
not vote to support any party or any
measure which he is really convinced
has the slightest tendency to force upon
him any thing like an approach to the So
cIal or political conditions from which
he has escaped.
Whatever the result of this election
may be, it Will mark period in Ameri-
can progress which is distinguished by
the almost total disappearance from our
social and political life of the narrow
prejudices which for SO long hedged In
in many quarters the individual foreigner

and his children in American society

abled experts to make many interesting
comparisons, taking in all sorts Of prob.

given out by Auditor Castle, of the post

city's postof1ce business and bank clear

it's population when compared with other
cities in the same direction New York
and Chicago rank first and second in

AS the national campaign draws to q
close the wonder of the ordinary citizen
has occasion to grow concerning the ex-
traordinary activity shown in an ora
? torieal way by the leading characters in
the contest on both sides.
1t seems, for instance, to be a plain
test of physical endurance between
Roosevelt ard Bryan. Urged On by their
managers and adherents, no doubt. each
OF these gentlemen is rushing wildly
through the country showing himself to
the people. OF course none pretends that
the few words which they speak here
and there have the slightest influence on
the course Of events. The entire pro-
gramme seems to disinterested observers
to be mere amplifcatfon of the Wild
West Show. idea introduced into national
politics by the Republican candidate for
vice president
The latest addition to the number ~
peripatetfc orators who have successfully
broken the record in the number of
8 speeches delivered is our own ex-Congress-
man Towne, of this state. That gentleman
has returned from the Pacific Coast coun-
try and the press reports inform US. no
doubt with entire truth, that he has
broken the record, not only in the num-
Der Of speeches delivered, but in the num-
Der of miles Travelled, while engaged On
his tour of moderation. Mark Hanna
ordinarily sedate and quiet sort of per-
son, seems. too, to have been bitten by
the same craze for appeal by personal
presence-to the good viii of the voter.
The whole affair is most unseemlv
public exhibition This campaign ought
to see the end of 1t. Day after day the
press announces that this mans throat
has become so badly affected that he
has been ordered by his doctors to dis
continue his campaigning, or that the
other mans voice has given out COM
plete!y. The speeches which the best of
these men are making are not worthy of
being listened to. Mr.. Bryan's last ST
Paut ADDRESS was below even a mediocre
standard. His voice was rasping. and
throughout gave pltiful evidence of the
inhuman strain to which it had been
subjected. The effort to maintain a pitch
of voice even nearly adequate to reach
ing to his furthest auditor was painful
not only to Mr.. Bryan but to all who
sat within such distance of him as to
be able to distinguish closely his per-
sonal movements.
Steps have been taken by public au-
thority to put an end to exhibitions of
human endurance In walking and run
ming matches, in bicycle races and prize
fights and other like exhibitions. when
they have degenerated into experiences
