Why Not Cleveland?

It seems little queer that the triumph of Tammany in New YorI, City should be interrupted as clearing the way for the nomination of Grover Cleveland as democratic candidate for president. But times have changed since the democratic party loved Cleveland because he had made Tam many his enemy. The vital forces rep resented by Cleveland in national af- fairs and Tanunany in local affairs have survived a great deal that IS temporary and trival in both. Tam many has destroyed, one after another. MT. Cleveland's rivals in New York and IS in full control of the state machine Larger and sarer forces in the country at large have destroyed, one after an other, those who contested his su- premacy in the national party. The democracy can continue leaderless. as 1t has been since he left 1t; but if it wants any leader. it seems limited 10 Nil. Cleveland or some one of his ap- pointinG.-Minneapo Tribune.

 Mainly About People" has already a secure standing and. the London cor respondent of the New York Times Saturday Review notes the starting of several other papers named on the same principlue. Among these are P. o. r. and T. A. T.. and the latest is B. M. G., which is devoted to the ban to, mandolin and guitar. There is such thing as putting too heavy q strain on the alphabet. In this coun- try there has been a reaction from the excessive use of initials as abbrevia- tions for the names Of societies. and carefully edited newspapers print these names in full. It is asking too much Of the patience of the public to expect it to remember so many arbitrary Ges:g- nations, and England will soon tire or the fad.-Sprlngfeld Republican.

Modern Printing Statistics.

| The Scientific American of Nov. IA is 1 to Printing" and the entire topic is covered in most comprehensive man. ner. On the economic side of the in dustry" the following interesting facts are made public:
 'The development of the 'art pre- servative of all arts has been very rapid during the last decade and many | of the changes have been revolution ary, resulting in an enormously in creased product, manufactured in quicker time and at a much lower cost The quality of the work has also inn proved. The far more general dissemi- nation of intelligence, the rapid and efficient means of terccmmunication between all parts of the world, with the cheapening and broadening of educa- tional facilities, constitute one of the most notable features in the progress of the world during the past fifty years: and the one most vitally con- tributing to all our great industries is the printing press. Some idea of the volume of business may be gained when it is stated that in 1900, the cen
 
 product was $347. .O55 O5O. This sum was almost equally divided among news papers on the one hand and book and job printing on the other. In the Unit ed States there are 22.3l2 establish ments. 15,3O5 of which publish or print newspapers. The total capital invest ed is s292,517.O72 A large clerical force Is necessary to transact this amount of business; 37.799 salaried officials. clerks. etc, draw $36, ,09O,71 in salaries. while the actual work is done by 162, 99l persons, drawing $S4,2499 954 in wages. Miscellaneous expenses of these estab- lishments were $55, ,S97, ,529. and the cost of materials used was $S6, ,S56. .g9O
 "Of the total value of products ad- vertising forms 43 per cent, subscrip- tons and sales S5.S per cent, and book and job printing, including miscel- laneous products. PIP per cent The total circulation of daily papers is enough to supply one for every five inhabitants and the total circulation per issue of weeklies and monthlies is one to each two inhabitants. Ninety four per cent. of all the publications are printed in the English language One and a quarter billion pounds of paper were used in the census year. Of this amount 77.6 per cent. was con- sumed for newspapers and 16.4 Der cent. for books and periodicals. and only per cent. for job printing. On analyzing the total circulation of each state 1t is found that the ten leading states supply four -fifths of the circula tion per issue of all publications, thus Indicating the concentration of circu iation in certain populous states. Weekly publica tiors are more numer ous in proportion to the inhabitants in the west and northwest New England ranks high in dailies but low in circu- latlon, suggesting that in that densely settled region the daily has to some extent supplanted the weekly.
 There were 1S.226 publications re- ported to the census authorities. while S,O46 publications failed to report. This would give a remarkable total of 2I.- 272 periodicals, and the aggregate cir culation of those reporting was 114, ,229. 334 per issue, while the aggregate num- Der of copies issued during the census year was S,16S, ,14S. 749,"

HAND THAT ROCKS THE WORLD

Blessings on the hand of woman. Angels guard its strength and grace In the palace, cottage, hovel
 Oh. no matter where the place! Would that never storms assailed it. Rainbows ever gently curled For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. Infancy's the tender fountain:
 Power may with beauty flow; NJ ther's first to guide the streamlets: From them souls unresting grow Grow on for the good or evil,
 Sunshine streamed or darkness hurl-
 ed;
 For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. Woman, how divine your mission Here upon cur natal sod. Keep, oh, keep the young heart open Always to the breath of God, All true trophies of the ages
 Are from mother love imDearled. For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world. Blessings on the hand of woman, Fathers, sons and daughters cry, And the sacred song is mingled
 With the worship in the sky Mlngles where no tempest darkens. Rainbows evermore are hurled; Fer the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rocks the world.

The Sympathy Strike.

Although it has been demonstrated over and over again that sympathy strikes are always unwise and gener- ally futile. the people who suffer the most from them are slow to realize the facts. The Cripple Creek strike. for example, to a large extent paralyZed business in Colorado for several months, and the aims of the walking delegates were therein accomplished for awhile, but the chief sufferers were the men who went out on strike. Hav- ing no grievance against their employ CTS, they quit work at the dictation of arrogant bosses. ostensibly to aid workingmen elsewhere to win a strike. And after giving up their good jobs in the Cripple Creek mines they had to stand idly by and see their placas flill- ed by the very men for whose beneit they had inauguratei the new strike.
 The latest phase of the situ1tion Is described o> the renver Gree and Metals:
 There are a few men still out on strike at Cripple Creek, but the mines are running and the ore is going to the mills and smelters again, and the dis trict is getting pack to it's normal con dition. More men will be placed at work just as soon as it is possible to add to the working force, and within a very short time there will be mere miners employed in the Cripple Creek district than ever before, but they will not be members of the Western I ed- eration of Miners. And the worklnen will be secure in the knowledge that they can not be ordered out, just to suit the whims of a committee located at distant point. and for reasons ard causes in which they have no inter- est, with everything to lose and noth- ing to gain. The strike h the Cripple Creek district. where the men had no grievance, is an illustration of the in- intoxication of power. The men were well paid, worked short hours, had no complaint to make. and the community in which they lived was among the most prosperous in the west The blight of a strike was laid on 1t and thousands of men were ordered to walk out. their families suffered and they were compelled to walk the streets in idleness, Cnly to witness the very men for whom they struck come in and ap- ply for the positions out of which they had few days previous been called
 It is the just cause that triumphs in all cases. and the fact that the miners have lost all and gained nothing is evidence sufficient to show that justice laid on the side of the mine owner"

WHEN THE FROST IS ON THE

When the frost is on the pumpkin and the folders in the shock, And you hear the kyouck and gobble of the struttin' turkey-cock And the clackin' of the guineas. and the clucIlin' of the hens.

When the frost is on the pumpkin and the folders in the shock. They's something kindo' heartv-like about the atmosphere. When the heat Of summers over and the coolin fall is here or course we miss the flowers, and the blossoms or the trees, And the humble of the hummin'- birds and buzz.n' of the-bees: But the airs so aPpetizin' and the land scape through the haze Of a crisp and sunny morning of the airly autumn days Is pictur' that no painter has the col orin' to mock When the frCst is on the Dunkin and the folders in the shock. The husky, rusty rustic of the tossels of the corn. And the ra.pln' of the tangled leaves. as golden as the morn: The stubble in the furries-kind of lone somelike. but still A-preachin' sermons tc us of the barns they growed to fill; The strawstack in the medder, and the reaper in the shed: The horses in their stalls balow-the clover over head Oh! it sets my heart a-clickin' like the tickin' of a clock.
