INDUSTRIAL oMENs IN FRANCE.

The United States Consul at Bordeaux, Mr..
Tourgee. reports that this years wheat crop in
France shows a deficit, notwithstanding the sur
plus from last year and the year BEFORE OF
thirty million bushels, and that inefhclency or
inadeQuacy of equipment In engineering lndus-
tries will render necessary extensive lmporta-
tons Of machinery and other supplies-it hav-
ing already been found necessary to purchase
American locomotives for French state rail-
roads This report corroborated by other au-
thorities, may be auspicious Of profitable trade
for the United States. IT is equally ominous for
the industrial and social-and perhaps the polit
lcal-welfare Of France, and perhaps also for the
maintenance Of international amity among the
European Powers.
For France is restless and discontented- OF
that there is no question The fierce animosi-
ties Of the last two or three years over the
Dreyfus case, the conflict between the army
staff and the civil government and other mat
ters have by no means been healed. They are
aIlayed for a time or held In allegiance, partly
by the masterful authority Of the Waldeck-
Rousseau Ministry and partly by a thrifty de-
sire for the success of the Worlds Fair. But
every one recognizes the fact that there is dan
ger Of their revival in intensified fury the mo-
ment the gates Of the Worlds Fair ara closed
or at the first opportunity or the first provoca-
ton thereafter. Nor is that all The enmity
toward Great Britain which has long been
prevalent among a considerable part Of the
French people Is also increased IN strength and
isready to fame forth at the earliest opportUne
moment. 1t, too has been held in abeyance in
order that English people might not be deferred
by It from patroni11ng the Worlds Fair. But
in spite Of such repression Of feeling by the
French, the English people have all but boy
cotted the fair. We need not enter into con-
sideration Of their reasons for 50 doing-the
French sympathy with the Beers, the insults
which the Paris gutter press and the Duke Of
Orleans offered to the Queen, the burdens and
losses In South Africa which disinclined the
English people from merrymaking. The fact
remains.
Now, If upon the heels OF these things comes
a considerable measure of hard times and social
distress in France, including a rise In the price
of bread, what then? Predictions are vain But
1t must be evident to the thoughtful observer
that the danger of political disturbances will be
much increased. We need nothing more than
the memory Of our own experiences to tell us
how seriously the political sentiments and acts
Of large proportion Of the people are affected
by the rising or the falling Of the barometer Of
prosperity. Hard times set men against the
Government which then happens to be In office,
and in France, where the Government is always
in a state Of unstable equilibrium, that Is a
dangerous thing. Scanty wheat means dear
bread, and dear bread has before this meant riot
and attempted revolution.

REER IN CAMP.

Reports have been published from Camp
Keuren. at Mantle to the effect that an Of
lcer OF the % Regiment, Connecticut National
Guard, found empty bottle in the camp that
had the scent OF beer" and that, reused 70 40
tivtty by the discovery, officers then turned up
tent floors, ripped bedding apart, overturned
cots examined shoes. haversacks valises, car
fridge boxes and hampers in their search for
contraband beer. and were rewarded by hnd-
ing -four bottles OF beer and one bottle Of
Jamaica rum" This discovery was made in the
camp street occupied by the New-Haven Grays,
which is Company r OF the % Regiment and
one Of the crack organizations of the command,
and now court martial 70 try the men In whose
tents the beer and rum were found is under Sc
rious consideration.
The incident shows the superiority Of the Ma
tional Guard Of New-Yorl, which is composed
Of men who, like their Connecticut comrades,
know the value of beer and rum. but In whose
tents empty bottles have ever been found to
Justify a suspicion that they had transgressed
the regulation which excludes these beverages
from the camp. There have been rurnors to the
effect that bottles have been seen at the State
Camp at Peekslrir, and during one camp tour a
civilian took the contract for keeping the streets
clean for other pay than the bottles which
he might find IN the dump. This enterprising
business man Is said to have realized ON some
days, when the camp was occupied by New
York City troops, many az $500 bottles. But
under the supervision OF strict disciplinarians
like McAlpin. TilInghast and Burbank It was
never suggested that these bottles contained at
any time anything that had the scent Of beer"
In the light OF the discovery in the Con-
necticut camp the New-York guardsmen may
feel proud Of their untarnished record; and, al
though many charges have been made against
them. no one has yet come forward to accuse
q company IN any regiment OF concealing In it's
camp street four bottles Of beer and one bottle
Of Jamaica rum. and no official in his rounds
Of inspection has ever found an empty bottle
that had the scent OF beer"
In report to Governor Morton, which Gre
aSed muCh discussion ST the time, General Nc
Lewse spoke OF officers who fndulged to excess
in ardent drink, to the detriment of the ser
vice, but McLewee was dismissed from the ser
vice, the accused officers remained, the possfbIl-
ity Of placing the National Guard of New-York
in the position now occupied by the New-Havsn
Grays was Gverted and any lingering doubt as
to the total abstinence Of New-York soldiers in
camp was set at rest. And that Is the reason
why the New-York citizen soldier feels sorry for
his Connecticut comrade and his four bottles of
beer, to say nothing Of the Jamaica rum.

1t is the invariabIe rule that mem
berS of the house of commons must
address their remarks to the house
through the chair, and, though in the
flow OF argument orator is often al
lowed without remOnstrance, to use the
second personal plural in admOnishing
his opponents, the first words are all
ways addressed to the occupant of the
chair. This, like many other rules of
debate, has percOIated from the house
of commons down to all our minor as
semblies, and the consequence is that
few members find any difficulty in COM
plying with the custom Not infre-
