THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

Well begin with box and the plural is boxes.
But the plural of OK should be oxen, not oxes
Then one fowl is goose, but two are called
geese,
Yet the plural of mouse should never be
meese;
You may find lone mouse, or whole nest of
mice,
But the plural house is houses, not hice
If the plural of man is always called men.
Why shouldn't the plural of pan be called pen?
The COW in the plural may be cows or kline.
But COW if repeated is never called kline,
And the plural of vow is vows, never vine,
And if Ispeak Of foot and you show me your
feet
And give you boot, would pair be called
beet?
If one is a tooth, and whole set are teeth.
Why shouldn't the plural Of booth be called
beeth?
If the singular's this and the plural is these,
Should the plural of kiss be nicknamed keese?
Then one may be that, three may be those,
Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
And the plural of cat is cats, not cose
We speak of brother and also of brethren,
But tn ough we say mother we never say meth
Then masculine pronouns are he, his and him.
But imagine the feminine she, shis and shim

between each producer of utilities of
form and the producer who adds there.
to complimentary utility of place, is
especially valuable in connection with
this great mass of railway traffic.
The consumers who obtain their sup
plies in particular market will pay
definite price for a certain quantity of
any commodity. If more is offered they
will, within certain limits, not now
material, take it at lower price if less
is available they will bid the price to a
higher figure. These conditions of
course are equally applicable to monopo-
lized commodities, but they do not
affect the railway rates applied thereto
with similar force. The reason for this
difference is simple-if the article is
monopolized, the carrier may demand
certain rate and may refuse to carry
unless the rate is paid. Then only so
much will be shipped as can profitably
be marketed after meeting the transpor-
tation charges that are demanded. Thus
the carrier by limiting it's rates can de.
termine the volume of shipments, I. e..
the supply in the market reached, and,
of necessity, the price will be that which
the local producer is willing to accept
at the local point plus the rates imposed
by the carrier and other incidental ex-
penses of transportation. On the other
hand, with regard to articles that are
not monopolized the railway can con-
troll neither the supply nor the price.
The market will be supplied in some
way either by local producers or through
the aid of other carriers even though a
particular carrier withdraws it's services,
and it is probable that in any event the
aggregate supply will be drawn from
many and divergent sources.

MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT.

1t is the curse of American city gov.
ernments, one which has made them the
reproach of foreign nations, that they
are governed generally by the worst
elements of the community and that the
best citizens, those whose property and
enterprises really constitute the city's
support, hold aloof from municipal poll
tics and permit the riffraff to usurp tempt.
ing and lucrative offices and levy
reckless and profigate tribute
upon the tax papers. The carnival of
misgovernment in every large city in
the country is partially checked at
times by spasmodio upheavals of latent
public sentiment, and then only when
it's excuses become too fragrant and un.
checked. After these outbursts affairs
soon readjust themselves in the same
old way and the abuses continue, the
public purse is looted as usual, and the
civic budget of expenses is out of all
proportion to the service given.-Finance.

CHICAGO's ONE CONDITION.

CHlCAGOS ONE CONDIIlONs
A Nebraska paper says that I" the best
policy for Chicago is to stand by and
build up the western cities and states
with its surplus capital and young men"
for this is "a western city dependent on
the development of the west" and hav-
ing nothing in common with Wall street
and Liverpool except for purposes of
sale.
Chicagoans would be ignorant indeed
if they were unaware of the close con-
nection betweeen the prosperity of their
city and the development of the west. If
there were no transmississippi region
Chicago would be small affair com.
pared to what it is. The building up of
the agricultural and other industries of
the west is something the Importance Of
which Chicagoans realize. It is for that
reason they take the lively interest they
do in irrigation schemes to add millions
of acres to the cultivable area of that
region.
When conditions are normal Chicago
is always ready to invest its surplus
capital in the development of the west,
knowing we'll that no more profitable
use can be made Of it. The city is not
SO ready to part with it's young men, for
they are valuable portion of it's work.
ing capital. But Chicago is continually
drawing active, enterprising young men
from the villages and towns lying to the
east and to the west of it, and it is only
fair that it should send some of them
away from time to time to assist in
building up other sections of the country
and to make their fortunes often in
doing so.
UP to recent period, however, the
conditions in some of the states west of
the Mississippi have not been such as to
make it expedient for Chicago to send
to them either capital or enterprising
young men. While Nebraska and Kan
sas were in the hands of the populists it
was not safe to send capital to those
states. The energies of the men who
ruled them were consecrated on efforts
to confscate or drive out capital. These
efforts met with so much success that
the active young men steered clear of
Kansas and Nebraska. They felt they
were not wanted there. The slight in
crease in the population of the two states
in the last decade bears witness to the
deadly influence of the populist legisla-
tion of which there was 80 much during
that period.
Both of these states have been re-
deemed from populism. Capital car

were overwhelmingly in favor OF
sound money, law and order and .
continuation of that policy. which
stands for prosperity. Patriotism
and loyalty to the flag were strong
factors in this campaign, and that,
together with the support Of those
who are generally termed sound
money Democrats but who I cal.
American citizens all combine to
bring about this result.
Nebraska was the greatest victory
of all. We made q hard fight in
in that State; We went for it for all
We we're worth, and while We did our
utmost and hoped for the best, We
did not expect to carry it.
I'VE have carried Kentucky, and
we have not yet given up hopes of
receiving her electoral vote and we
do not propose to give up.
I'VE have carried the State and

Of the three hours that today's cabi.

ence was made to the expressions in
portions of the European press that
the United States policy regarding
China would undergo marked changes
Immediately after the election, and it
is suthoritatively announced that at.
ter most exhaustive review of every

its inception up to the present mo-
ment, delivered by Secretary Hay,

moreover, unanimously expressed its
