Bressdns Away From Poftscs.

Breaking Away From Politics.
From the Council Bluff Nonpareil.
One of the editorial writer's Of the
Nonpareh in endeavoring to follow
instructions to drop politics now and
write about something else, turns in
the following copy, which fairly indi-
Gates the condition of the average
editors mind as he attempts to turn
his thoughts from the campaign to
other matters.
Tho discussion of the Westminster
confession Of defeat is being subjected
to a revival of business such as was
not known four years ago. Among
the numerous paramount issues
brought out by the leading church
controversalist is the question
whether tho contession's teaching
concerning the salvation of the infant
industries is.such as. conforms with the
plain declaration Of independence
and Of inspired writ. If this is true
then many of the presbyteries in the
outlying precincts will find that in all
the rites and ceremonies the ground
of their argument was among the
territory gained under the democrat
ic administration of jefferson. The
proposed revision would make
such changes in the tariff of faith as
to cause many to lose their trust in
all the statements of religious belief,
although just such trusts existed un-
der Cleveland as exist now. The
fathers of the church never held that
the doctrine of predestination follow
ed the flag or that the statement in
their creed had that sort Of clear
ring which exists in TammanY. So
far as the doctrine of salvation being
free at the ratio of 16 to it is evil
dent that the theological statements
cannot show where even the elect
can break into the solid south so long
as they associate with Republicans
aud sinners. The church must recog-
nize the consent of the governed or
else face trade and dying love will be
trampled under the iron heel of inn
perialism. So far as the baptism of
these infants are concerned there are
those who hold the only remedy to
be to squeeze all the water out of the
stock and thus destroy that very
trust in the future, which is recog-
nized by all faiths. The expansion of
the church ncessitates such change
in customs and duties and such q re-
statement of the platforms as will
carry conviction to the heart OF
every repentant and patriotic voter.
Those who are seeking to convert the
world find great encouragement from
the reports of the polls already taken.
The world is changing and some pre-
cincts are almost unanimous. Let
every man do his duty and the creed
will be saved, but don't forget to
register.

Especial Correspondence.l

PARIS, April IA handsome perma-
nent feature OF Paris, though inaugu-
rated at this exposition. is the new
bridge or Alexander III across the
Seine. 1t Is so called by way OF a deli
cate compliment TO Russia. 1t Is a
magnificent structure OF steel and mar
bic, and it's cornerstone was actually
laid by Gar Alexander on his last visit
20 Paris.
AT the entrance 10 the bridge on each
side are handsome white columns, four
In all. surmOunted by colossal gilt
NEUROLOGICAL groups. Everywhere in
sculpture in Paris appear the forms OF
women, now breaking n horse. now
tanning a lion or shooting something
and now sitting In repOse, like majes-
tic schoOlmlstress. To the exquisite
eye OF French art, plainly the female
figure is the most beautiful OF living
creations.
Choice quality rather than great
quantity In the exhibits Is character
istic or this exposition OF 1900, because
the French could not put their show
where IL was wanted 10 be without
tearing down architectural works more
important than those OF the expOsi-
ton. II will be none the worse for
that, however. Many buildings actu-
ally were sacrificed. France herself
has erected upon the grounds IS prin-
cipal palaces and 20 anneXes, and pri-
vate French exhibitors have as many
more.
The way France promptly meets the
expenses OF preparing for an EXPOSE
ton Is characteristic. The whole cost,
apart from the expenses OF private ex-
hibitOrs. was estimated beforehand AT
S27.O20.0OO. Nearly half of this. SlS.-

Bad Piece For Fire.
0CIeveland Leader.O

Justice Levi Baulder grew reminiscent
the other day and told about some of
the experiences in Colorado. when he was
"tenderfoot' there. He was at a min
ing camp and one evening was invited to
the tent of one of the miners to enjoy
a smoke and be SOciable. He entered the
tent and sat down on a box beside cot.
The rest of the company were seated
about in comfortable positions and story
telling commenced.
Squire BaUlder was smoking a pipe and
several of the other members of the
company were also smoking. Finally
Baulder became tired of smoking and
knocked the embers and ashes from his
pipe on the floor beside the cot. UDon
his doing that one of the men leaned
over and said to him:
Don you think you are wasting con-
siderable tobacco?"
oh, | guess there is plenty of that
commodity in camp" said Baulder.
well, when we want to empty the to-
bacco from our pipes we generally go
outside and knock it out against stone, -
said the miner.
wen, that is an entirely unnecessary
proceeding, 1 should think" said Baul-
der.
''Oh. not so unnecessary as you NAV
suppose" said the man. Just beneath
that cot against which you knocked your
pipe is hundred pounds or so of dyna-
mite and powder
Squire Baulder SAYS he could feel his
hair rising on his head. but he again
lighted his pipe, just 10 show the COM
pany assembled that he was not so much
of tenderfoot as they took him TO be.

COMBINES ARE PROsPERING.

Prosperity is to be the slogan in

American.
1t was the slogan in 1892 and the echo
was heard in the landslide which swept
the shouters from power.
What do administration men mean
by prosperity asks DR.. Richard T..
Ely in Appeal TO Reason. Il
have hear, great deal about the
prosperity or the south. It is said to
be growing rich. Does this mean the
prosperity of the many or of the few?
Net long since a friend or returning
from Richmond told me that the peo-
pie were making so much money that
they could not spend it. I had not
heard of any rise of wages. When
walking on Charles street in Baltimore

ting forth the growing wealth of a
newly region in Virginia. and
among other attractions for capitalists
I noticed this: Cheap labor 1 have
