DECLINING TO KICK.

The Philadelphia papers are showing
that they do not appreciate the jokes
which are made by New Workers on
the idea that their city is away be-
hind the times. A day or two ago one
of them published an article calculated
to create the impression that Philadel-
phia men are better qualified for large
undertakings than New York men, and
that in really important matters Phila-
delphia leads New York. 1t called at
tention, for instance. to the fact that
on quite number of street car lines
in New York horses are still the mo-
tive power, that the biggest New York
hotel is conducted by a Philadelphia
man, that New York's biggest retail
store building was unoccupied for years
because no New York man was capable
of utilizing it, and might be unoccu-
pied yet if Philadelphia man had not
taken hold of it. He is conducting a
successful business in it.
The Philadelphia paper also pointed
out that New York, notwithstanding
her magnificent water front, has no
great ship building plant, such as the
Cramps at Philadelphia, and that not
withstanding her immense capital she
has no such manufacturing plant as the
Baldwin Locomotive Works in the City
of Brotherly Love.
The foregoing are a few of the things
mentioned by the Philadelphia paper to
proxya +1,o+ Iobfla dalybfa &c Mt za elem,
as stupid joke-makers would have the
world believe. 1t is acknowledged that,
in confidence men and stock and pro-
duce gambling institutions, New York
is far ahead of Philadelphia, but it will
not be admitted that in substantial
matters the Quaker City is in the least
behind the country's metropolis.

MIR. KNAPP.s CHARGE.

Some days ago in an address in
Cooper Union, New York city, Hon.
Martin A. Knapp, chairman of the
Interstate Commerce Commission, said
that mo man can accumulate 500, OOO,-
coo in thirty years without gross i'm
position on his neighbors." Was Mr.
Knapp justified in making that
charge? We venture to say that nine
tenths of his fellow citizens will say
he was. But they may be wrong.
The New York Commercial takes the
position that Mr.. Knapp had no
ground on which to base his charge.
Perhaps he hadn't, but he is in po-
sition to learn much of the methods of
corporations, out of which great
fortunes of the present time have been
made. OF these methods the public
knows comparatively little. Some for
tunes have been made by wrecking
railroads, others by running COMPETE
tors, their ruin being accomplished by
forcing concessions from the transport
tation companies. and still others by
ever capitalizing railroads and indus
trial plants and unloading the securi-
ties on the public by means that
wouldn't bear investigation.
We do not undertake to say that
any of the fortunes of over $l00, 200, 900
that have been accumulated during the
last thirty years are tainted with in
justice and fraud, but if the facts con-
nected with the accumulation of these
great fortunes were made public, it is
probable that there would be such a
showing as would go a long way to-
wards sustaining Mr.. Knapps charge.
The Commercial thinks there are so
few men who have made 800, 900, 900 in
the last thirty years that Mr.. Knapp
could easily name them and set about
substantiating his declaration. 1t is
not likely that he will accept that
challenge. He would quickly find him
self in trouble.
The Commercial says that $100, 900, 900
in thirty years is only $780, 900 year.
and that lots of men are doing as well
as that nowadays, and that some have
made from $5,000,0O0 to $1O,0OO,OOO this
year. Well, they do not live in this
neck of the woods. There is a case now
being tried in one of the New York
courts in which nobody seems to know
what became of 6.0OO,O 600 of the stock
of a certain corporation. Probably 1t
helps to make up the fortunes of those
who are now accommodating wealth at
the rate of from $5,OOO,OOO to $4,000, 900
a year.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Washington Post Qnd.) says:
"Now comes a New York newspapers
with the assertion that the diplomatic
service is to be arranged so as to pro-
vide a better place for one of the rel
atives of the Hon. Henry Cabot Lodge.
Why do they continue to hammer away
at the eminent Massachusetts civil SER
vice reformer in this manner"
The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says: sit
is saddening, to think of Gen. Miles APP
pearing in the garb of a plain citizen
when he has gorgeous uniforms which
are the admiration of the civilized
world Who can wear the uniform of
a lieutenant general as gallantly as
he? Who can make mere brigadiers
and major generals look like small
coin? Who among our warriors can
hope to be a glass of fashion and mold
of form such as Gen. Miles has been
ever since he filled his wardrobe with
the most stunning toggery of the CEN
fury? Kill the Hawley bill by all
means. most noble senators. The coun-
try can never get along without Miles
on parade"
The Louisville Courier-Journal
Dem says: 1T is our habit just now
to boast of ourselves as a mighty
world power, and especially to proclaim
our glorious supremacy in the indus
try and trade of the earth. And yet
no sooner is it proposed to make d
little 20 per cent. tariff reduction ar
rangement with the little island of
Cuba than we, as represented by the
party in control of our government,
go into a panic of fear. We are to be
ruined by a trivial tariff reduction on
imports from Cuba! We, who have
been Wanting our dominancy of the
markets of the world, frantically pro-
test against destruction by allowing
a few tons of Cuban sugar to come
into our markets under a tariff 20 per
cent. less than the present rates!
Truly. il the Republicans of the House.
in their action on this matter, do not
misrepresent us. instead of being a
mighty world power, we are a weak
and blubbering BOBBY"

WHAT ABOUT THE PRIZE NONE,

The House Committee on Naval At
a resolution concurring in the conclu-
sion reached by the President in the
Schley controversy. That conclusion
was that the naval battle at Santiago
was a captains fight.
Assuming that the President is right
about the matter, why is it that the
captains who fought the battle did not
get the prize money? The amount of
this money that was distributed among
the officers was sos, 39701
The captains who, according to the
President, fought the battle were w.
Cook, 2,190.S2; r. Evans, $2,166.46; c.
L. Clark, 81 ,9S9. 80; j. w. Philips, ST.
740.2S and H. c. Taylor, $2,152.S9. The
total amount received by these cap
tains-the captains who We're engaged
in the fight-was 13,57S.49
What was the amount received by
Rear Admiral Sampson and Capt F. E.
Chadwick, who was in command of
the cruiser, New York, the flagship OF
Admiral Sampson? These two officers
We're not in the fight, except techni-
cally. They arrived on the scene OF
the engagement after the battle was
over But they got the lions share
of the prize money. Admiral Samp-
son got $25,797.44 and Capt. Chadwick
got S14,O26.OS. They received $26, 265. 81
more than the six CAPTAINS who did the
fighting and won the victory.
If it were a captains battle, as the
President says, it does seem as if the
captains ought TO have been given a
greater share of the prize money. The
President does not seem TO have given
any attention to the prize money phase
of the case

Gently "swore off" says the Duluth
News Tribune. They had never tip

that it would be a good thing to quit,
and accordingly quit for a period of
thirty days. The agreement was
drawn up in writing, and signed by
each. The third day after some Of
the parties to the agreement began
to chafe under the restraint. They had
never before felt the need of a drink
quite as badly as after the ink used
in the drawing up the agreement had
become dry. One of them at last
dropped in on one of the others, and,
of course, the swearing-off proposition
was Immediately brought up.

ply. Let's read this agreement over
carefully"
They did so, and it was discovered
that the agreement did not call for
thirty consecutive days, but merely for
thirty days. The man hit upon this
bright idea was hailed as a born law
yer, who was wasting his time in the
railroad business. There was an imme-
date adjournment to a popular West
Superior street thirst cure.

Lady Geraldine had been dead fully
fifteen years, says the Baltimore Sun.
But night after night, when the clock
in the lonely turret over the stables

through the halls, and step, step, step
softly yet plainly up the broad stair

Geraldine until they paused at the foot
of Lord Edwards bed. And all these

down the broad stairway and by the
dying light of the hall lamp he showed
her the front door locked, the bolt

With soft, glad, grateful sigh Lady
Geraldine glided out into the night and

Catarrh Tablets, the new catarrh c,,r.
has met with such success that to-do-,
it can be found in every drug sto-s
throughout the United States and cav
ada.
To be sure large amount of advar-
Using was necessary in the first in.
stance to bring the remedy to the ar
tention of the public, but everyone fa.
miliar with the subject knows that Cd
vertising alone never made any article
permanently successful. It must have
in addition absolute, undeniable merit
and this the new catarrh cure certainly
possesses in a marked degree.
Physicians, who formerly depended
upon inhalers, sprays and local washes
or ointments, now use Stuart's Catarrb
Tablets because, as one of the most
prominent stated. these tablets contain
in pleasant, convenient form all +ba
really efficient catarrh remedies, sncb
as red gum, blood root and similar an
tiseptics.
They contain no cocaine nor opiate
and are given to little children with en-.
tire safety and benefit.

which they cleared my head and throat
was certainly remarkable. I had no
catarrh last winter and spring. and
consider myself entirely free from any
catarrhal trouble"
Mr.. Jerome Ellison, of Wheeling. W.
Va, writes: II suffered from catarrh
nearly my whole life and last winter
my two children also suffered from ca
tarrhal colds and sore throat so much
they were out of school a large portion
of the winter. My brother who was
cured of catarrhal deafness by using
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets urged me to
try them SO much that I did so, and am
truly thankful for what they have done
for myself and my children. I always
keep a box of the tablets in the house
and at the first appearance of cold
