The Venerable Swiss

It is not every republic which can celebrate the seven hundredth anniver- sary of it's esta ablishment The United States dates its Fourth of July cele- bration from 1776. The French republic dates it's 14th of July celebration from 17S9. The republics of South and Cen tral America. large or small. date their establishment from some time in the past century.
 The Swiss residents of New York eel ebrated in New Jersey last week, in genuine William Tell style, the 712th anniversary of their national birth. In cosmopolitan New York most such an- niversaries pass without much notice: but in the case of the Swiss, the event is worthy of attention.
 There are bout $500 natives of Switz- erland resident in New York City. There are about 25,00O residents of the Greater New York of Swiss parentage or descent, the larger number of Swiss newcomers being attracted to other cities than this, for the reason that the two crafts in which Swiss workers ex- eel, silk making and watch making, are carried oh outside of New York more extensively than here in town.
 The Swiss in New York, as elsewhere, have proved to be good citizens, indus trious. thrifty, charitable, little inclin- ed to controversy, litigation, or dis turbance, and stalwart in their defense of order and authority. In New York the Swiss colony" is a valuable ele- ment in the great conglomerate popu- lation of the town.-New York Sun.

Length of Presidential Campaigns.

Four months is not long for pres- dential campaign. Representatives in congress are elected on the same day a president is chosen. Surely the people of the country can spare a little time through fouI months for so important q matter. Whether the nomina tions shall be made early or late, the usual time will be devoted to presidential and congressional politics next year. The excitement incident to the nomination of candidates for president and vice president is as disturbing as the actual presidential campaign. The conven- tions have a settling effect. Usually there is lull after the nominations are made. Time is given for wounds to heal, and for those who swear with both hands and feet that they will not vote for the nominee to fall into line rather than help the enemy. even by indiffer- ence. There is always a great deal of fol-de-rol about political contention disturbing business. Men who are nev- CT satisfied-who always want to be making more money-let their acquisi- tive imaginations run away with them. Business men owe more than they us- ually allow to government. and govern ment cannot be run without politics. A long and exciting presidential cam paign is a good teacher in government Cincinnati Enquirer (Dem).

We do not now recall it'' And that isn't all. In Colonel Bryan's part of the country there isn't a man of the right age and size in sight. Vest is too old. Teller is too old, and was a republican up to 1896. Carter Har- rison is too juvenile and the job he has is big enough for him. What demo- crat is there in the middle west or the far west comparab ble in standing, in ability. in availability with German of Maryland.

 The conclusion of the whole matter as seen in tidewater Virginia-is that the southern democrats had better tie up to the eastern democrats. their nat ural allies in politics and business, and let the prairies slide

NOrthfeld.

Nortnfield. Mass. is rapidly becoming an American holy city" with title to that appellation quite superior to that of the centers of superstitution in Asia and elsewhere which owe their distinc- tion to misty and musty legends of the past. The little towns title to such a name is superior because its sanctifica- ton is derived from very hard and con- stant work in the field of formative re- ligion. It is a teeming workshop of religiouG faith and practice.

No Westerners Need Apply.

Thus far our democratic brethren are far too undecided. inharmonious and anxious about the first place on their national ticket to bestow a thought upon the filling of the second How different the year-before situation across the way. You don't hear a word of discussion among republicans about the first place on the ticket but you see gentlemen for whom the vice presidency has charms making themselves as modestly conspicuous as possible and gentlemen for whom 1t has terrors taking precipitately to the woods. Our politics abounds in these contrasts. and they are tickling to the sense of humor.

THE GOOBER BUG.
It Was Very Harmless but the Girl
 Didn't Know That.

They were a trio of pretty shopgirls enjoying an evening trolley spin to Fort George.
 A large moth. attracted by the glare of the electric light, winged it's way in- to the car and futtered blindly from one to another of the little group. There was q chorus e terrible shrieks till the passenger behind leaned forward, with masculine fearleSsness captured the in sect. and flung it out into the night again.
 The incident served to remind the girl who were the veil hat of an amusing occurrence of the week before.
 Did Stella tell you about the enor- nous bug that got down her back the time we took this ride together?'' she asked. when quiet had been restored.
 No? I almost died laughing over that. She hasn't forgiven me yet.
 We bought some peanuts to eat on the way home. Stella had on her white piuue suit with the blouse coat and just for fun I dropped a peanut down the back of it through the loose col lar. She didn't notice it at the time, but when we were about half the way home she put her hand suddenly to her back and gave a little scream.
 "'There's an immense bug in my coat, she said. What in the world shall I do?'
 T had forgotten all about the peanut then, and of course I thought it really was a bug. I offered to try to get it out. but she told me that it was simply 2 monster. She could feel it struggling wildly to escape and she was afraid if she took her hand off it I would lose my nerve and let it crawl up her neck. If it did that she would die.
 There's nothing for me to do, but to hold it where it is till l get home; then l can take off my coat and shake it out the window she said.
 Sure enough she sat there holding the thing all the rest Of the way. When we got home I waited out in the hall till she should get it safely out of the window Stella said 1t was very quiet then; she felt sure it must pe dead, but I wasn't going to take any chances of being in the same room with a live bug that size.
 Through crack in the door I wa tened her take off her coat and wrig- gle her left arm out Of the sleeve. Then she turned up the gas and unclasped her fingers a bit to get a look at the monster The funniest expression you ever saw came over her face.
 What is ito I called in.

 Do you know. she still believes l did it on purpose, and that l remembered all along about the peanut. New York Times

The Yacht Races.

Neptune and Aeolus favoring we Will begin to learn today whether the third attempt by Sir Thomas Lipton to take back to England the Ameri- cas- cup will be successful. The de lenders have been successfully defend- ing the cup so long that it has come to he a habit with them and long con tinued habits are not easily overcome This one has grounding of more than half a century in the course of which many things more impor tant than cups have been lost and won-
 It is pretty generally agreed by those who have been watching the reports Of the trial races that the outlook of so good as it is this morning In previous preliminary races lines had been drawn which enabled careful ob- servers to form an accurate merits of the vessels days before the beginning of the contests, so that the races themselves. barring the interference of fiukes or other acci- dents. consisted of little else than a procession of the vessels over pre- scribed courses.
 If any expert yachtsman has made up his mind at this time as to the he has not ordered his judgment made a part of the record. Therefore those who have to depend only upon word of the expert have no data at hand for the prejudgmeat of the contest which will begin today.
 We may be able to keep the cup for aFother fifty-two years or we may have to take trip across the At haps a majority oi Americans would prefer to keep it but it is certain that there is a large number of them who believe that if we ever have to sur render it we can never find a more opportune time or a more opportune victor. If Sir Thomas should never win the cup he has already won the hearts of the American people and a considerable part of their tea trade which we once swore' with mighty oaths should never go to England.
 Interest in international yacht races has hitherto been divided between two classes of Americans; those who were intensely patriotic and those who were moved less by patriotic senti- ment than by sportsman-like impulses. The latter wanted to see the best boat win; the former wanted to see only the American boat win. Now there are three classes, the third drawn from both of the former. It is made up of thousands who would like to see Sir Thomas Lipton reap some other reward than the growing popu- larity of his teas.
 So if we should lose the cup the loss will not be regarded on all sides as a national disaster.

CURRENT COMMENT
A Great Discovery.

Science continues to make great dis coveries for the amelioration of human existence. One of the latest of these is the discovery that excessive piano prac- tlce by children is ruinous to their nerves. It has long been known that such practice was destructive to the nerves of helpless listeners. The result of this great scientific find will, it is hoped. lead to less rigid requirements as to the practice of unwilling pupils and the consequent relief of their long suffering auditors. The eminent scien- tist mentioned has found that out of 1000 girls who were compelled to play the piano before they were twelve years old, 500 suffered more or less with ner- vous disorders which required medical treatment; whereas only 100 out of L. GOO that did not practice cn the worries before that age were subject to such diseases. The suggestion is made by the learned discoverer of these facts that no child under twelve should be allowed to practice on the piano regu- larly. and no long continued practice should be required under sixteen. The effect. if this suggestion were carried out. would be to thin out the ranks of the young sufferers immensely, for af- ter sixteen only small per cent of them would have time to practice. On ly those who had natural aptitude for the harmonies of sound and a love for the art of making such harmonies would be likely to take up seriously the drudgery of learning after that age Those who had no music in their fingers and no desire to make discords would be better able by reason of increased age to defend themselves against the mistaken ambitions of parents and the cupidity of music teachers.-Memphis News.
