| II is one of the greatest of the
| traits of character which have
made Americans a somewhat uni
Ique product, from foreigners
point of view, that enables our
people to pass through the turbu-
lence, noise and temporary ami
mosities of 2 political campaign,
and emerge placid, good-natur-
ed, united people.
This is not difficult to account
for; the vastness of our territory
and interests furnishes a ready an
swer to those seeking q cause.
Once in every tour years our
people divide on seemingly irrec-
onciIable issues, and. are arrayed
against each other on platforms de-
claring this or that to be the ques-
ton of vital moment to the coun-
try. Papers and orators tell the
people that their welfare IS DEEPEN
dent solely upon the success of
party, and the perpetaity of the
government upon the endorsement
of political platform. A little
while after the election these
things are forgotten, the orators
turn to other avocatlons than
spellbinding and the papers to dis
cussing matters of general or local
material interest. For political
purposes We regularly divide our
selves into practically two parties,
for practical purposes we constl-
tute numberless sectional, state,
county and local aggregations,
each intent upon accomplishing
whatever best promotes its own
peculiar welfarep Just now the
country Is attending to busine IS
and politics are laid aside, and the
paramount issue with w should be
the seeking of the material welfare
of the state and the prosperity of
its people.
The state at large, by the en-
enlargement of capital and immi-
grafton, through wise legislation
and fair treatment, and every city,
town and village within its bor-
ders, by individual and associated
effort and enterprise, should mu-
tuaIly assist in bringing about a
condition of prosperity necessarily
making for the common benefit.
With one of the best legislatures
ever chosen, with state admins
tration in accord with the spirit of
the times, with fair crops and le-
prices, with new rail
roads building, and cotton and
rther mills in course of cree
hon, it would be well to put aside
politics for a while and talk bust
ness; forget that we belong to this
Or that party or faction and con-
slider ourselves simply members Of
Dne commonwealth and bend all our
energies to its upbuilding, in the
knowledge that what makes for
The material welfare of the state
1t large reflects a benefit upon its
avery citizen. This is platform
broad enough to furnish standing
,oom for all, an issue which all
should consider paramount.

The path of the New Orleans

The path of the New Orleans
Democratic newspaper is some
what thoruy. With the rlce-grow-
er doing his best to get into a
trust, and the sugar planter de-
handing protection and hunting a
trust to boot, there is but one
string on which a consistent tune
can be played. That is probably
why Imperialism is worked to
death down there.

AID TO ANIMALS.
Interesting illustrated Lecture
by Mr.. Wesicott Of Our Ami.
NAL Protective League.

Tho stereopticon lecture on the work OF
Our Animal Protective league. given In
Infantry hall by Mr.. Arthur westcott.
was a most interesting one, his subject
being What Great Things Young Peo-
pie Can DO For Animals" l20 lantern
views being used TO illustrate his re-
marks.
The lecturer began by outlining the
work and methods OF the league. The idea
is 10 band the children together into
chapters for definite practical instruction
concerning the care and treatment Of
animals. Portraits OF the various chap
ters OF boys and girls. ii. active workers
for the league. were thrown upon the
screen and seemed to meet the hearty APP
proval of the youngsters present.
Every chapter was accompanied by its
mascots, nearly every specie of animal be-
ing represented from dogs TO pigeons and
from sheep TO white rats. The personal
reports of the children, fac-similes OF
which were thrown upon the screen,
seemed to meet with an enthusiastic re-
sponse from the people present, as they
applauded Justify.
Next came the Illustrations of the work
done by the children in tending animals
and rendering them assistance on the
streets.
The lecturer exhorted all present To ex-
ert "A wider sympathy towards our dumb
creatures, and urged them To be more
considerate TO the sufferings OF others.
Nothing should be too lowly for our con-
sideration. IL is the duty of the strong 10
protect the weak under all circumstances.
In closing the speaker begged them 10
renew the pledge as taken by all the
boys and girls belonging TO our Animal
Protective league: II hereby promise that
so far as I'm my power lies / will prevent
all cruelty 10 dumb animals, and will aid
and succor those that are weak and help
less"

MADE MISTAKE.
Signal Man Is Blamed for a
Slight Collision at the
Union Station.

There was a rear end collision between
the Harlem River special and a train OF
so empty fat cars, directly in front of the
Union passenger station at noon yester-
day.
The only loss was the breaking up OF a
box car belonging TO the New York. New
Haven and Hartford Railroad eompanv.
and the carrying away or tho headlight
and the smokestack OF the locomotive
which crashed into the empty car.
The accident was due. It is said by su.
perintendent Whaley. TO an oversight on
the part Of the man in the signal tower.
who had sent a train OF 50 empty cars
through on the extreme north track. and
a short time later allowed the Harlem
River special TO go UP or the same line
while the first train OF cars was waiting
TO be picked up and carried alonR.
A wrecking train was soon brought mn
10 the place and the track was cleared An
very short time. No ono was injured
and the damage 10 the rolling stock will
be light.

APOSTLE PAUL.
Bishop McVickar Of Rhode
Island Preached at Harvard
Last Evening.

The Rt Rev w. n. Mcvickar. bishop
coadjutor of Rhode Island, delivered the
weekly sermon in Appleton chapel at
Harvard college, Cambridge, Mass, last
evening.
lie took his text from Acts XVI, verse
l6: But rise, and stand upon thy feet !:
for have appeared unto thee for this
purpose, to make thee minister and a
witness both of these things which thou
hast seen. and OF those things in the
which i will appear unto thee"
Bishop Mcvickar said, in brief: "One
of the most forcible lessons from the
Bible is the sudden change in Paurs life
after the vision he had on his way to
Damascus. Through 1t he became as
noble as previously he had been bad
What is true of this man is true of ev-
erybody.
There is no man, no matter how wick
ed, in whom there il not some thread
of purpose, and It is his duty to accent
this, as Paul accepted the vision, and to
crystallize il by earnest work toward
some high end
Because there is present in every soul
n serious purpose we can see further that
1t must be Gods purpose and Gods will
that we fulnl II by our labor
MANY of us, to be sure, are afraid TO
admit this close relation between God
and man; we resist his will and try 10
act independently Surely we do this in
ignorance and blindness: for what more
pitiable fate could man have than to be,
as IL were, an orphan, cut of from all
intercourse with his God?
mo one can say truly that he has
never been offered a share in this in
tercourse. All OF us have had some op-
portunlty, but too often have let IL slip
by, and thereby our natures have be-
come more callous and insensltive to these
appeals
Paul seized his chance, and made Il an
