A MILLER,s MoNuMENT.

A MlI1bERS MONUMENT.
IA milestone taken from his MILL
Beneath this stone miller lies,
Who left the world before the rise
OF modern ways Of making -four
And hence passed many a happy hour.
He was not forced TO speculate
Nor on Chicago's movement wait.
He did not care for foreign trade,
But sold his neighbors all he made.
Gables and kilograms were rare;
The markets did not make him swear.
Small was his mill, bis profits round;
Clear was his head, his slumbefs sound.
He envied none. he was envied not
And died contented with his lot.

PARAGRAPHIC POINTERS.

Why do we wish to hold the col onies for their trade, and then force the Dingley tariffs against them?-In- dianapolis News Qnd).
 As matter of fact Mckinley has shown more imperialism than Grant did, but the country is becoming mVre accustomed to it, and there is some delusion in the fact that Mckinley is not a military man. It is very probabl that the republican nomination can be secured for him.-Indianap Senti- nel.
 It is gratifying to find that some limitations are recognized in connec- ton with the imperial power vested in the executive. Apparently Mir. Knox and Mir. Root shrink from declaring that Mir. Mckinley can levy taxes upon the American people which only con- yress is competent to levy. But as for the poor Filipinos, they hold that he can rule them absolutely under the military power." He can even set up a civil government, so-called, and still remain absolute dictator by military power.-Boston Post.
 Mir. Hanna is reported to have said that he does not expect any great change to be made in the Dingley tariff bill by the next congress and the ad- ministration is said to be opposed to any such change. These expressions are entirely natural. There is in the republican party a disposition to change the tariff laws, and if some op- position is not shown the cut made might be very deep. Hence, these words of opposition are merely in the nature of move to prevent radicalism in dealing with the favorite law of the republican party. The people of this country will not submit to law which results in foreigners being charged less for American goods than an Amer ican is charged. And no one knows this better than the republican party. It's ear is never foot from the ground.-- Dallas (Tex) News

The supreme court has decided

The supreme court has decided that toward the outlying possessions of the United States congress stands in the position of an imperial parlla- ment, with power to impose It's wlil upon the inhabitants. The adminlstra- tion goes a step further and assumes that all powers in this territory are for the time being vested in the president, not by act of congress, but by virtue or his authority as the head of the army. It is we'll to have the theory of the ad- ministration thus clearly stated. Itis quite evident why, in adopting this theory, the president did not deem 1t advisable to summon congress in extra session to consider it.-Philadeiphia Times.

summarizes the crop situation as fol-
lows.
The crop situation is stfn a subject
Of much concern Heavy damage to
the corn crop must be conceded; but it
is altogether too early to form any
reliable opinions of the exact yield.
and il is doubtful if the highly pes
simistic accounts lately circulated wilt
be realized. More or less Improvement
has taken place during the last ten
days, and it must be borne in mind
that the early damage reports were
much exaggerated The farmers were in
a. panic and their habitual tendency to
make the most of crop failures was in
tensified by prolonged anxiety and
heat. Recent reports from we'll in
formed bankers and merchants show
that the injury and its consequences
win be less serious than at first ex-
pecteds there being several compensa-
tionS, such as better prices. good wheat
crop, a fair supply Of fodder and good
