CONFEDERATE DEAD.
(Mail and Express.

The disinterment OF the bodies of
some goo Confederate soldiers which lie
In the District of Columbia, and their
reburial in selected spot in Arlington
Cemetery under the auspices of the
Federal government should he marked
by all the ceremony and solemnity that
would accompany a similar transfer Of
Union dead. Congress has made a
most generous appropriation. and the
removal Will be made this fall. This
graceful act is the direct outcome of
President McKinleys memorable ad-
dress at the Atlanta peace Jubilee, in
which he declared his belief that the
time had come for joint care of the
Confederate dead by the North and
South. Since that address was deliv-
cred the causes have multiplied for
giving effect to his plea, and for sur
rounding the forthcoming event at Ar
lington with all the dignity possible to
government participation.

JOHN JAMES INGALLS,.

Ihe former Senator from Kansas will
be remembered longer for single
phrase than for his many eloquent and
really able orations, or for the circum-
stance that he was for four years the
presiding officer, pro temporc of the
United States Senate.

Gifted with a lean, acute, cynical in

the English language, John James In

ing enemies on every side. His hatred
of humbug and cant. except when it
was his own humbug and his own
cant, was so fervid,- and his powers
OF verbal eXcoriation were so remark
able. that his tongue kept him in hot
water during much of his variegated
career. Few men OF his generation
were the subjects of hercer attack or
heartier reprobation by his political
antagonists. 1t was the Hon Grover
Cleveland who declared that the re-
tirement of Ingalls, from public life
was the most welcome event that
could occur for the qualification OF
Democrats and decent people" In
this phrase Mr. Cleveland characters-
tically begged the question, but there
is no doubt that he meant what he
said. ingalls, was n thorn to the pom

NOTES AND OPINIONS.
HIGGINSON FOR RYAN.
Omaha World Herald. Dem

1t is now in order for the administra-
ton organs to begin their accustomed
task of abuse, directing 1t this time
against Thomas Wentworth Higginson
MIR. Higginson worked against Bryan
four years ago, but believes now that
the election of Bryan is necessary to
the Derpetuation of republican insti-
buttons. Thomas Wentworth Higgin-
son is one of the foremost literary men
of the century. His record as a soldier
is above criticism. He entered the
army in 1862 as captain OF the Fifty
first Massachusetts Volunteers. He
served for three years, was severely
wounded in 1863 and was mustered out
as colonel in 1864. AS soldier, author
lecturer and minister he has been in
the front ranks.

The AYE OF Iron.

The census, taken at the dawn Of the
twentieth century, marks the greatest
epoch in our national life, says the
North American Review. The age of
iron has come to climax with a force
almost dynamic.
The world has witnessed the golden
age of Augustus, the silver age of
Elizabeth, the era of great wars and
Of wonderful progress in the arts and
sciences; but as the nineteenth century
eliminates, behold! the age of iron and
steam and electricity, telegraphs, sew
ing machines, telephones, automobiles;
an age which is devoted TO material de-
velopment, to the accumulation of
wealth and to the upbuilding Of vast
enterprises, and which halls the advent
of the uncrowned king of commerce,
the consolidation Of great corporate in
terests. High-water mark in our COM
mercial and industrial life has been at
tanned, and to thnt fact the vast emu
meration to be taken in 1900 will add
its testimony. The work of the twelfth
census will mark the Industrial growth
of the nation and be another mile-post
In its marvellous history.

Vortex Motion in Atmosphere.

Vortex motion in the atmosphere,
though seldom obtrusively patent in
England, must certainly be reckoned
with, and all ascending currents, from
whatever cause, appear of this nature,
says the National Review. Dust whirls
in spring, and twisting columns of dry
leaves or hay in summer and autumn
are evidences of the existence of such
upward currents. But the aeronaut
can detect them. on a larger scale and
penetrating sometimes far aloft. This
is only what might be expected from
statistics relating to such phenomena
where they occur in greater earnest in
other parts of the globe.
1t is classical history how dust show
ers have arisen in the west coast OF
Africa and descended again on vessels
far out on the Atlantic; how Scotland
has been visited by a storm Of pumice
debris which was supposed to have
had its origin in Vesuvius; how show
ers Of fish or of frogs have descended
from the sky, having been swept into
lofty regions entangled in. the bosom
Of windwhrl sufficient to bear them
whittier it listed. The dust of Kraka-
tao, committed to the lofty winds by
the force Of Its own eruption in 1883,
travelled over the globe in outward
courses almost without limit before
settling to earth weeks or months or
possibly years afterward.

Pope Leo in Extreme old Age.

A correspondent in Rome, writing to
a London paper, thus describes the
present appearance of the Pope: There
Is no doubt that since last saw Leo
XIII. lie has greatly altered. He is
much thinner and much whittier than
he was few months back. His face
looks so very small that one almos;
fears that should he wear his mitre IL
would entirely extinguish his tiny face
and head. On the other hand, his eyes
are bright, and his voice is fairly
strong. He could not stand unasslsted,
or even walk across the room without
the aid of stick, aud Is afflicted by a
constant Irritating cough. His intellect
Is as strong as ever. and his memory is
very clear and precise. He is. moreover,
quite able to attend to business and to
write his letters and sign documents.
His last signature shows no alteration
In the firmness of the hand. and is as
clear and distinct as 1t was twenty
years ago." aAft rfNr

Tariff, Trusts and Prices.

Attention is called to the fact that
while the American price level is IL per
cent. higher than year ago, that of
England Is II per cent. higher. If the
advance in prices is due to trusts,
solely or primarily, it must be that
they have trusts in England. But If
England, with no tariff except for rev.
enue, has trusts, what becomes of the
plea that the tariff is the mother of
trusts? The fact Is that free trade
England as well as protected America,
has trusts; that America has trusts in
articles that are not protected as well
as in those that are; that part of the
advance In some of the articles con-
trolled by trusts is due to their manip-
ulation, and that few of the trusts
which have thus abused their power
have been enabled, by the existence Of
q high tariff on those articles, to push
prices a bit higher than would have
been possible If competition with the
old world product had been free. Not
the tariff, but the commercial advan-
tages and the attractions of stock job
bling have been the parents of these
new corporations, whose real power for
good and for i'll, even to the wisest and
most careful OF observers. is still
problem.--St. Paul Pioneer-Press. IL

forms. The former bright strips of
metal are now too valuable for this use
