BY pushing productive capacity to its

stantly advancing prices, the American

pansion in this era of prosperity. Its
charges became too high, and the con
sumers rebelled. causing ar accumulation
that speedily assumed the aspect of a
large ov~erproduction. Mills were shut
down and thousands of workmen thrown
out of employment in a spasmodic effort
to maintain the high level of prices, but
all in vain. 1t has been determined, ac-
cord.ngly, that general and substantial
reductions shall be made In the prices OF
wire and nails, which constitute the bulk
of the company's output. Wages are 10

MILLIONS FOR PLEASURE.

The Midway" features of the Paris
Exposition represent an expenditure OF
$40, 900, 000-an enormous sum to be
devoted to pleasure in it's lighter
forms, but it will probably pay. Two
installations, the big wheel (Grande
Roue) and the moving platform and
electric tramways, cost $500, 600 each,
while the Swiss village represents
$500, 600, the Celestial globe $500, 900,
the tour of the world and palace OF
costumes" $500, 900 each, the "street in
Cairo" $1,000 900, the "mareorama'
$3.50, 900, the animated diorama" the
same amount, and so on through a
long list, while, to crown all, the man
agement has ordered a reproduction OF
Mt. Vesuvius in eruption, to cost ST.
coo, 900. The side show at Paris will
cast the Midway of Chicago far into
the shade.

will be compelled to shoulder q heavy
burden IN the Observation-Disclosures Of
realty. and this may be followed BY a
new city loan, as it undoubtedly will
by an increased city valuation in 1901.
1t is a good time for sober second
thoughts.
Everyone appreciates the benefits
which would be derived from such a
railroad as the one projected. 1t would
be a good thing for city and county
alike. But can we assume this in
creased burden in justice to ourselves?
Can not this public subscription be
made less-say a quarter of a million
and could not the county sell it's hold
ings in the "Pewiky" railroad to the
highest bidder, in open competition,
and apply the proceeds to the aid asked
in behalf of the new enterprise? This
would largely relieve the burden
sought to be imposed, and still the de-
sired end would be attained. The
"Pewiky" interest held by Ohio coun-
ty are very valuable and would bring
much more than it cost the people.
Why not dispose of it and use that
N good thing as a e of getting
another? But in doing this there
should be no back door" transfers,
such as have been intimated as occur
ing some years ago. If a county sub
scription is essential to the success OF
the new railroad let it be made as easy
upon the people as possible and the
existing collaterals named be publicly
advertised and sold for cash to help
out.
These suggestions and ideas are Of
fered as preliminary to the discussion
of the subject which will come later
and as affording some basis for thought
on the part of the public. Bye and bye
we will be called upon to vote.

Why should we hesitate to take the

the inhabitants object to the transfer?
There is no longer any reason for expect
ing us to consider their wishes after the
transfer, and why should we worry about
their wants before they nave been turned
over TO us? Anyway, a few promises would
probably satisfy TIM for the present and
our promises are cheap enough, goodness

THE TWO

If there is anything worse than a
"wide open" town, it is the town In
which everybody must wear'a straight
face at all hours and wherein even the
most innocent amusements, are frown-
ed upon and tabooed. Personal lib
erty'' may lead to unrestricted license,
but, on the other hand. restrictions
may be carried to that point where
they result in simple meddling with
private affairs, and the last condition
is worse than the first.
Ocean Grove, N. j., is a case in
point. This altogether charming re-
sort belongs to an Association, which
leases lands and buildings to the elect
upon long time, there being incorpo-
rated into said leases sundry r~estric-
lions of a decidedly Puritanical ma
ture. One of these clauses prohibits
the playing of cards upon premises
owned by the Association. A few days
ago a lady, without fear of the Asso-
citation or regard for it's ideas of right
whist party at her residence for a
charitable object. She was warned
that it would not do, but
she went on, and the guests
assembled in goodly number. Then
the Chief of Police appeared, and the
ladies were forced to dispense, to re-
assemble at a public hall not under
the jurisdiction of the Association
where they were joined by their hus-
bands, fathers and male friends and
the result was a mighty protest which
will probably result in some reason
Association.
Progressive whist is regarded by
very many very good people as an en-
tirely harmless recreation, although it
is played with cards. To attempt the
suppression of such games Is only to
add recruits to the ranks of those who
believe IN personal liberty from the
very fear and dread of interference
with harmless private tastes and in
clinations, and that does the general
cause of reformation no good. Your
infexible and narrow-minded reform
err is quite as bad as he who believes
in the doctrine of everything goes"
One would violate the reasonable and
proper restrictions for the good of soci-
ETY.. and the other would NEEDLE with
and annoy those present at a ladies'
card party in a private residence, given
for a charitable purpose. Society
hasn't much use for either class. A
middle course is infinitely preferable.
Excess of zeal leads to excess of
license.
