ADDIcKs STILL a CANDIDATE.

! The long senatorial contest in Della
ware was brought to a close on Mon
day by the election of two Republic
cans, the long term going to Union
Republican, an Addick man, and the
short term to a regular Republican.
Gas" Addicks became convinced on
Saturday night that there was no
chance for him, and therefore he con-
scented to the proposition of his lieuten-
ants, namely the election of regular
Republican for the short term and a
Union Republican for the long term.
This outcome of the long contest must
have been a bitter disappointment to
him.
No one except himself knows the eX
act amount of money he has spent in
his effort to reach the United States
Senate from Delaware. 1t is believed,
however, to be hundreds of thousands
of dollars. By means of his money
the Republicans have repeatedly car
ried the Legislature, but there were al
ways enough Republican members of
that body hostile to him and his meth
porters now constitute a party, known
as Union Republicans. They differ
from the regular Republicans only in
the fact that they are pledged to his
election to the United States Senate.
Judging from what has appeared in the
public prints Addicks would just as
soon be a Democrat as a Republican
if he thought that by a change of pol
itics he could reach the Senate.
Although defeated for the present he
has by no means given up the fight. He
states openly that he means to go to
work at once to elect the next Legis-
lature, and that he feels confident that
it will contain a majority of Addicks
men. There is no doubt that he has
plenty of money, and that he is ready
and willing to spend it freely to ac-
complish the object for which he has
been striving for so many years.
That politics in Delaware is rotten
there does not seem to be any reason
to doubt. II Addicks should ever sue
coed in getting himself elected to the
Senate the whole country would re-
joice, assuming that the stories of him
are true, If the Senate were to refuse
to admit him to a seat.
1t is doubtful If the deadlock in Del
aware would have been broken if the
chairman of the Republican National
Committee had not interfered and adj
vised the course that was adopted. The
Delaware scandal had assumed such
proportions that it was doing the party
serious injury. That doubtless was the
compromise.

"FooI Killer" ana the Taxpayer.

Bolton Hall, the single-tax apostle,
has just given to the public, in lit
tie book called "The Game of Life"
a sheaf of fables that satirize modern
customs and laws, and at the same
time are intended to show how much
better off we all would be under the
reforms which Mr.. Hall advocates.
Among other things that rouse his in
dignation and irony is the spectacle of
unemployed workingmen and idle land
existing concurrently, with no effort
by society to bring the two together.
Mr.. Hall satirizes this state of affairs
thus:
whats that?" asks the fool killer.
That's an unemployed man in a va
cant lot" said l.
why don't you have him work en-
the lot and produce something's" asked
the fool killer.
Because" 1 said, I'VE suffer from
over-production already: and, besides,
the owner of the lot won't let him work
on it,"
Il must get my club said the fool
killer.
Hold ony' 1 said. Pretty soon we
will arrest the man, because he does
not do anything; then the judge will
fine him, because he has no money;
and we will keep him idle in Jail be-
cause he was idle out of Jail; and the
workers will tax themselves to pay
for all that
The fool killer gasped, II must or

the fool killer.

A story is told of a Glasgow bailie
whose knowledge of natural history
was limited, says Tt-Bits. One day.
when on the bench, the following case
came before him: .
A man who had a squirrel, on going
to the country for a short time, left
the squirrel in charge of a neighbor.
The neighbor, when attending to the
animal, accidently left the door of its
cage open, and, without being seen, it
made its escape.
On his return, the owner of the
squirrel was very angry at the man
for hts carelesness and brought an ac-
ton against him, demanding compen-
sation for the loss of his pet.
The bailie heard both parties, and
then gave the following as his decision.
He said to the neighbour
Nae doot We did wrang to open the
cage-door; but'-turning to the pur-
suer-'ye was wrang, tae, for We
should hae clippit the beasts wings"
IT'S a quadruped, yer honor!" said
the man.
"Quadruped here or quadruped
there, if We had clippit its wings it
couldna haze flown ava. l dismiss the
case"

THE F1rrY-sEvExrH CONGRESS.


At noon to-day the Fifty-seventh
Congre IS will pass into history. OF
course the Republicans will contend
that it was a great Congress, but it is
doubtful If the people will see any
thing great in it, except its great ex-
travagance. Having an overlooking
treasury to draw upon the Republicans
have appropriated money recklessly,
and. that too, without putting much
to the credit of Congress in the way
of legislation. Representative Living
stOn, the ranking member of the mi
nority of the Committee on Appropria-
tions. says that the amount of the APP
propriations made by this Congress is
more than $4,000, 900. 900.
1t has not been so very long since the
country was astounded by the appro-
priation Of 81, 900. 900 900 by one Con-
gress. For a time 1t was called the
Billion Dollar Congress, and it was a
powerful argument against the Repub-
licans. Now we have a Two-Billion-
Dollar Congress. How long will it be,
If the Republicans are continued in
| power, before we have Three Billion
Dollar Congress? When the Republi-
cans were charged with spending ST.
000 0O0. 900 during a single Congress they
replied that the country had become a
| billion-dollar country, and it is proba-
bic that they will now excuse their Cx-
travagance by saying that this is now
n
They do not seem to realize that
they are imposing a heavy burden of
taxation upon the people, burden
which, while it is easily borne as long
as the times are good will cause MUIR
MUS and manifestations of discomfort
when hard times come. and such times
are sure to come sooner or later.
Another thing that should be taken
into consideration in considering this
question of extravaganza, is that Con-
gress sets an example in the matter OF
expenditures which is followed by
state, county, and especially city gov
ernments. All along the line, as il
were, there is now the most lavish ex-
penditure by public officials. OF course
the people have to pay and when the
time comes when it will not be easy for
them to pay the heavy taxes imposed
upon them. there is going to be trou-
BILE.
The Populist party was brought into
existence by the burdens imposed by
reckless expenditures in public affairs
and the time may not be distant when
there will; be another party having
Practically the same basis. Discon-
tent is largely due to the burdens of
reckless expenditures. Although owing
to prosperity, POpulism is disappear
ing, Socialism is in evidence. Only hard
times are needed to fill the ranks of
the Socialists.
The Fifty-seventh Congress made
great promises respecting antitrust
legislation. All we have to show for
them is the ElSins rebate lava law
that Is practically no advance upon
the existing antitrust law. and the
Bureau of Corporations, which may
curb some of the trust evils, provided
1t is properly administered. The Lit
tlelleld antitrust bill was side-tracked.
1t was too business-like TO suit the Re-.
publican bosses.
few of the things done will COM
mand attention; for instance, the act
authorizing the isthmian canal and
the act relating to irrigation, but this
Congress will not go into history as O
great one.

Daniel ]. Sully, recently of Provi-
dence, r. l., seems to have taken the
place of Theodore Price as the leader
of the cotton market in New York.
Last year Mr.. Price attracted the at
terltion of the entire South by his pre-
dictions in respect to the crop and
prices and by his deals. For several
months Mr.. Sully has been steadily
acquiring prominence in the New York
Cotton Exchange, and now his name is
becoming quite generally known
throughout the South as one of the
greatest cotton spectators that the
country has known.
He is described as a comparatively
young man, being only AZ years of
age, and very retiring in manner. He
is a thinker, rather than a talker,
though very approachable and COM
municative when he has anything to
say. OF course, there are very exag-
gerated reports afioat respecting the
amount of money he and his friends
have made since the beginning of the
present cotton season. 1t is alleged
that the syndicate of which he is the
head has cleaned up as much as ST.
100000. There does not seem to be
much doubt that he has made for HIM
self more than 100000.
When cotton reached cents such
spectators as Theodore Price ceased
to be buyers. In Mr.. Prices opinion
cotton had reached as high a price as
1t was likely to during the present
season. Mr.. Sully said little, but con-
tinued to buy all that was offered. AS
a consequence, the price has advanced
until it is beyond 1O1s cents for the
best grade in New York.
Mr.. Sully began his business career
as a clerk in Providence. He turned
his attention to cotton after 1885, at
which time he married the daughter
of the manager of several large
cotton mills. He came South for two
years to study cotton, and then went
to Boston, where he was a cotton
broker for four years. Returning to
Providence he became a partner in a
firm of cotton brokers. His dealings
in cotton futures began to attract at
leIlllOH III EIONlQtnCe ny lHelT lnaSnl-
tude, and gradually he extended his
operations until he became quite well
known on the floor of the New York
Cotton Exchange. About two months
ago he moved to New York, and since
that time he has been the most impor-
tant factor in the cotton market of
that city.
OF course Mr.. Sully has plenty of
money TO back his opinion in respect
to cotton. and thus far he has been
fortunate. He may continue to be
fortunate, but experience shows that
no cotton Spectator is right all the
time. Next season Mr.. Sully may lose
all he has made this season. In fact,
he may drop this seasons winnings
before the season is over. Betting on
the cotton market is a great gamble.
| and unless a man has money which he
can afford to lose the better plan for
him to pursue is to let speculation
alone. 1t is certain that the South
would be far richer if her cotton plant
ers had had less to do with cotton
| futures.

The scientific world has had a new
and ponderous theory placed before

England. In a recent issue of the Fort
nightly Review he presents. in a lengthy
and learned paper. the propositions that
the earth or solar system is the physi-
cal center OF the stellar universe. and
that the supreme end OF this vast uni
verse was the production and develop
ment OF the living soul in the perisha-
BILE body OF man. Man. therefore, is
the focal point of the universe. DR..
Wallace brings powerful arguments
and established scientific facts 10 bear

he will be combatted. and a brilliant
