CURRENT COMMENT.

The New Orleans Picayune (Dem)
says: "Of all the South American coun-
tries Chill is the most formidable, for
the reason that its people are highly
developed, they possess a stable gov
eminent and are notoriousty brave
and enterprising, differing in the lat
ter respect very radically from the
other Latin-American people. The
Chilians have long cherished a grudge
against us, and by no means relish the
ascendency which we claim in all af-
fairs of the Western hemisphere Chilli
will therefore bear careful watching. -
The New York Sun (Rep) says:
"Ritualism, however, is thriving amaz-
ingly. 1t seems to be the most pros
porous school in the Episcopal Church;
and if it is satisfied with the strength
of it's position as vertically Catholic, -
it has no need to take trouble to it
self in order to invite to it Roman
Catholic countenance. But what says
Professionalism to this prosperity? In
England Professionalism is up in arms,
but here it seems to be unaccountably
careless about a growth of mediae-
valism which appears ominous."
Discussing election frauds in its
home city, the Philadelphia Ledger
Qnd) says: "The aggregate number
of false names on the assessors list
can only be estimated. but with ma
chine tools in control Of the election
boards in a large number of populous
wards, and with the police to aid
them and shield them from interfer
ence. even the conhding candidate of
Quay and Lane. of Durham and Ash
bridge. of Salter and Maloney can
hardly remain obliyious to the means
prepared fer his election"

A good story about the Rt. Hon.
Richard Seldom comes from Cork,
writes the Scottish American. When
the tireless Premier had exhausted the
many novelties of the Cork exhibition
he proceeded to test his own weight in
penny-in-the-slot machine. That ma
chine just saved ''the poor old mother
country" as Mr.. Seldom has called the
United Kingdom, from another accusa-
ton of not being up to date. The ma
chine would test a weight of 20 stones.
or 2S0 pounds, as a maximum, and Mr.
Seldom recorded 276 pounds, or lust d
pounds short. After this experience
if enc may say so, there need be no hes
itancy in describing the New Zealand
Premier's utterances as weighty.

HILLS CHARGES AGAINST ODELL

Gov. Odell of New York has come
out second best in his controversy with
David B. Hill over the question of the
Governors interest in a firm which
has been furnishing supplies to state
Institutions. The Governor has taken
refuge in "dignified silence" which
means that he has no further defense
to make. He said some days ago that
he had withdrawn from the firm in
question before he became Governor,
and asked the people to believe, there
fore, that he had no further interest
in the firms business. 1t may be true
that Mr.. Odell is not now an active
partner in the business, and he may
not have been such a partner since he
became Governor. But is there any
reason why the profits and losses of
the business should not be settled at
some future date, when Mr.. Odell shall
have ceased to be Governor? Instances
Of temporary retirements from bust
ness for policy's sake are not alto
gether unknown. The Philadelphia
Ledger's New York correspondent re-
ferring to this matter a day or two ago,
said: 80 far as an independent opin-
ion of the matter is concerned, the case
stands in this way: Few believe that
the Governor has in any way been in
fiuenced in his official action by his in
terest in the firm, or that his policy
with regard to state charities has for
its motive any personal financial con-
siderations; but nearly everybody
thinks that he is fairly open to the
charge of being indiscreet and lacking
in a complete sense of official honor"
That is very easy and friendly way
of letting the Governor down. If
full, free, searching, legal investigation
were held into the matter, the proba-
bilities are that Mr.. Hills charges
would be fully sustained. Meanwhile
the Republican and many of the So
called independent newspapers are vi
olently attacking Mr.. Hill for bringing
a charge of wrong-doing against the
Governor. Nothing is too hard to be
said against a Democrat, but to their
view Republican, by virtue of his
politics, must not be exposed when he
is caught in illegal acts. Mr.. Hill is
therefore being roundly denounced for
his wicked Democratic campaign trick
of accusing a good Republican of
acting badly. Nevertheless Mr.. Hill
has driven Gov. Odell to silence, and
the people will draw their own conclu-
sions.

Partisan fashion journals announce

this hope we have been especially fer

A little matter of three inches in the
length of a bathing suit has been re-
sponsible for a broken engagement.
The owner of the suit was wondrously
pleased with it and her girl friends
pronounced it Just too sweet for any,
thing" but her fance would have
none Of it. 1t is actually said that
when he saw it on his charmer he
blushed. At any rate he insisted that
three inches should be added to the
length Of the skirt and when his sweet
heart refused to permit his diotation
broke the engagement. The saddest fea-
tare of the whole matter. if the des-
cription of the garment is taken for
fact is that thirteen inches added to
the skirt would bot have made it parti-
cularly volumtnous.

The scientific squabble over the age
of the Lansing Man." whose bones
were recently dug up in Kansas, still
continues. The friends of the deceased
claim that he lived ten thousand years
ago, but they have not been able to
adduce such evidence as will warrant
implicit confidence in their contentious.
If it should be proved that this early
American lived ten thousand years ago,
however, the formation of his skull
would prove also that man in that age
attained a degree of mental develop
ment not noticeably lower than that
he enjoys to-day.

The Sultan of Turkey is reported to
contemplate considerable reductions in
his present domestic establishment.
The little luxuries he has permitted
himself in the matter of wives are es-
timated to cost the Sultan s775,o00

stroke to weed out the superauities and
reduce this expense by a third. The
''superhuities' are to be married to Of
ficers in the army and the Sultan's
personal service. 1t is not every man
who finds it possible to rid himself Of
ease.

The defeat in the Landsthing of the
treaty ceding the Danish West Indies
to the United States is credited to
Princess Waldemar, of the royal fam
lily. No reasons of sentiment, 1t is
said, impelled her interest in the mat
ter, but the hard, cold dictates of fnan-
cial gain. The Princess is reported to
have acted as the agent of a Danish
syndicate, the purpose of which is to
exploit the islands. II is not the first
time, If the story be true. that diplo-
macy's best laid plans have been foiled
by a woman.

Rural free delivery is not making a
hit with the storekeepers of the viii
lagos and cross roads in many sections
where ii has been introduced. Instead
of coming to the combination store
and postoffice to do his trading and get
his mail, the farmer has his letters de-
livered at his door: when he buys it
is in large quantities and rarely in ex-
change for eggs or produce. In some
localities the volume of business done
by the storekeepers has been seriously
diminished and they are putting up a

the times is offered by the elevation
Of Woodrow Wilson to the presidency
of Princeton University. 1t is place
that has been filled by many distin-
guished men, but never before by one
not clergyman. The innovation marks
the modern demand for secular educa-
ton. For that ideal it is fortunate
that at Princeton it will be illustrated
by the able and scholarly gentleman
to whom the destinies of the university
have been committed.

rHE srPREME ISSUE.

In my Judgment" said Hon. Adlai
z. Stevenson in the course Of his
speech in New York last night, "the
tariff is the supreme issue in this cam
paign. other questions may be of the
hour-they will pass with the occasion
but this is ever with us" In this
view the distinguished Illinoisan is in
perfect accord with Mr.. Cleveland and
other leading men of the party who
have been quoted lately. The silver
question is either dead or sleeping so
soundly that it will cut no figure in
the campaign. Imperialism seems to
have lost its terrors. Milltarism no
longer frightens children at night with
its hideous mein. But the tariff and its
attendant evils are ever present. On
every side is to be witnessed the spring.
ing-up and growth of trusts and mo-
nopolies which threaten the very foun-
dations of the government. The peo-
pies food and fuel and clothes and
tools Of trade are controlled by
trusts. which exert their gigantic
power to extort the last penny from
producers and consumers. The trusts
dominate both the markets and
the earning power of the people, and
manipulate the former so as to absorb
practically all of the results Of the lat
ter.
Notwithstanding our boosted pros
perity and the individual fortunes that
have been suddenly acquired" says
Mr.. Stevenson, 1.-The sad fact remains
that to the mass of the people this oft
repeated boast of prosperity is but
sad mockery." While prices of the ne
cessaries of life have been steadily adj
vanced by the trusts, the prices of la
Dor have not correspondingly advanced.
The trusts keep wages down, in va
rious ways Thus the dollar of the
worker will buy considerably less now
than it would four or five years ago,
and the average worker is getting no
more dollars than he was getting then.
1t was stated in Chicago the other day
by committee appointed for the pur-
pose of making an investigation that
in five years the cost of living had adj
vanced between % and SO per cent,
with no appreciate advance in wages.
In almost every instance the increased
cost of the necessaries of life can be
traced to the influence of the trusts.
And these trusts are the creatures of
the Republican tariff policy. 1.-THE
tariff is the mother of trusts" said Mr..
Havemeyer of the sugar trust. High
protection is vicious class legislation,
In favor of the few at the expense of
the many. The Democratic party has
always set it's face against class legis-
lation. Its greatest victories have been
won on the principle of tariff reform.
Its wisest policy at present is strict adj
herence to that issue, leaving minor
and side issues to a more propitious
season, when the great question shall
have been settled in the right way.

A San Francisco Judge has declined
to grant a divorce to an aged couple,
each of whom was suing the other and
alleging cruelty. They had been mar
ried thirty-three years and Judge Hunt
said that such evidences of misconduct
that marriage tie so long existing
should be broken. 1t is unquestionably
true that in this country divorces are
too often granted for too trivial rea-
sons and it will be well if the action Of
Judge Hunt establishes a precedent.
