Looking Ahead.

On another page this week we
publish the letters of ex-President
Grover Cleveland and ex-senator
d. B. Hill, written to the Crescent
Democratic club, of Baltimore.
These two epistles will be read
with deep interest by all who take
a lively interest in politics just at
this time. Mr.. Cleveland's letter
is noticeable in its dealing with
the question of Democratic policy
in a general way, for he does not
state exactly what he would have
the Democratic party do, but AIR.
Hill, on the other hand, seems to
grasp the situation at once and
views the present situation in the
light of practical and level-head-
ed politician. He touches upon
matters which are being discussed
by Democrats all over the country.
These two letters are OF special
interest just now because both
these men are talked of in connec-
tion with the next presidential
nomination.
Very few regard Mr.. Cleveland as
a candidate, having already twice
been president, and having too
many political enemies in his own
party to be a successful or popular
candidate. But he does not mind
giving advice and will probably do
a good deal of letter writing with
in the next two or three years on
the political situation.
While Mr.. Hill, by his own
recent statement, is not seeking
the nomination, it is probable that
he, too, will be heard from pretty
regularly until the next presiden-
tial convention, and no doubt
what he says will have a tendency
to direct the attention of Demo
Gratis toward him. His chances
now look more promising than
that of any leader in the party to
secure the nomination.

Will the movement which has
been inaugurated by the legisla-
|ture Of Pennsylvania to secure the
election of United States senators
by the direct vote of the people be
successful? It is very doubtful,
though it is certain that there is q
strong sentiment In favor Of choos-
ing senators in that way. The
people are getting tired of the sem
atorial deadlocks which are all the
time occurring in legislatures.
There is deadlock at the present
time in Nebraska, in Delaware and
In Montana There may be others.
Besides the deadlock there is a
scandal of greater or less proper
tions connected with at least half
of the senatorial elections.
The legislature of Pennsylvania
has adopted a resolution asking
congress to call a convention for
the purpose of proposing amend
ments to the constitution. It was
satisfied that the senate would
never agree 10 an amendment pro-
viding for the election of senators
by direct vote of the people, and
so it adopted this method for ac-
complishing the object it has in
view. Before the call will be man.
datory on congress the legislatures
of two-thirds of the states will
have to approve it. The Pennsyl-
vania legislature has appointed a
committee to urge the matter be-
fore the legislatures of other states.
1t will be necessary for twenty
nine other states to join in making
the call. = If that number is Sc
cured, Congress viii have to call
tie convention. If the conven-
ton thus called adopts the amend
ment in question, the amendment
will have to be ratified by the
legislatures of three-fourths of the
states, or by conventions in three
fourths of them before it will be
valid,

Florida VS.. California Oranges.

Notwithstanding the talk heard so
often this season that Florida oranges
lack the merit and selling qualities of the
California fruit, the Florida fruit still is
very popular with consumers, as inquiry
among some uptown retail dealers this
week by representative OF the Fruit
Trade Journal shows. OF six dealers 70
wnom the subject was mentioned, three
said their customers preferred Floridas,
two said their trade was about equally
divided, while one had greater demand
for Californias. At two fancy fruit stores
it was said Indian river oranges always
brought the best prices, and russets were
more sought after than bright; smooth
fruit. The store pronouncing in favor of
California fruit was one that display ed
the poorer grades of oranges from both
states, which would seem TO bear out the
statement that lower grades of Florida
fruit are poor sellers.
There is no doubt that as the season
advances Florida fruit increases in popu-
larity, and that the poor quality of ar
rivals in the beginning of the season
made it difficult TO get good prices when
the quality improved. 1t is to be hoped
that Florida growers will profit by this
experience and that next season they will
be more careful with their early ship
ments, remembering that consumers
usually judge the quality of fruit by their
first purchases. The Florida orange in
its perfection is the best in the world and
brings the highest price, but it often has
to suffer from the poor and green fruit
rushed early to market.-Fruit Trade
Journal.
The above testimony is the more val
uable because coming from a publication
which has, for the most part, been sharp
ly critical.

HiaWatha was an Indian boy. His

answered all his questions. He had q
friend who taught him how to do things.
He taught him how to shoot with bow
and arrow and kill deer. One day when
Hiawatha killed deer he ran to Mime
hsha and put it down at her feet. Min
RRhaha's father was an arrow maker.
Minnehaha went into the wigwam to fix

if he could have Minnehaha for his wife.
He said yes, if he wanted her.
