UnseemIv Irreverence.

Our esteemed contemporary, the Los
Angeles Times does not seem to real
lie that it is guilty OF lese majesty,
CT words to that effect, when it pokes
fun ct the deity of the Arizona demo-
crGcy, the Hon. Marcus Aurelius
Smith. It 5 true that Mr. SIaith is
now statesman cut &C a job, but he
was never mere willing in his life
than he is how to serve wherever his
country calls. And if he succeeds in re
lieving Pima county from the payment
CT those fraudulent bonds, why
shouldn't he have a commission of %
Per cent? The Times is guilty o. un-
scemly irrevcrence.

The WorId of Home.

From the Chicago Record-Herald.
A poet in whose heart despair
Had sunk her fingers tore them loose,
And, putting on a hopeful air,
Sent out a song of courage where
He feared 'twould be of little use.
1.-The proud" he said, perhaps will
sneer
And make my song of hope a jest,
But 1 shall triumph if I cheer
One weak and weary soul or clear
But one doubt from some aching
breast.
1.-THE ones who scott, self-satisf1ed
And free from woes that warp and
kill.
Will toss my song of hope aside
And in their wisdom and their pride
Show pity for my lack of skill
"'Tis strength" he sang, gives faith
to seek
The glad, fair ways that lie ahead;
They fail who sit downcast and meek,
For hope is strong and doubt is weak
Joy comes by patient courage led"
There came from those he thought to
be
self-satisfied one who confessed,
Who bowed In deep humility
And cried: New hope has come to
me
Despair was hidden in my breast"
Why fear to preach good cheer? We
ne'er
May guess what heart lies deep in
pain;
Each golden arrow shot in air
Is. fated to descend Somewhere
No hopeful word is said in vain.

coon MANNrRs on DECLINE,

Occasionally Bishop Potter of New
York becomes a bit pessimistic. In
the course of his address before the
Lawrenceville IN. J) School the other
day he bewailed the decline OF good
manners. I'VE are getting to be IN
such a hurry in America" said he,
that the ordinary civilities are disap-
pearing out of our education and our
life. When you have dismissed good
manners out of society you have dis
missed that beneficent and kindly in
stinct towards your fellow man, of
which good manners ought always to
be the expression"
Bishop Potter ought to take a trip
South. 1t would improve his physical
and moral digestion, both of which
have apparently been impaired by the
atmosphere of his diocese. He stays
in New York so much, and sees so
much of the ultra-fashiouable set, that
he has become impressed with the
idea that that set is typically Ameri-
can. In view of which there is little
wonder that he sees as through glass
greenly and is sorry for the decadence
of American manners. But the good
Bishop should not suppose that New
York is America nor that the manners
of the country are reflected by those
who give dog parties and monkey
dinners. If in New York the cOurtly
bow and uncovering of the head and
the Difference of youth TO age have
come to be disregarded as useless con-
ventionalities, it is not so in some
other sections of the country. If the
Bishop would come South and mingle
with the representative people-the
most thoroughly American people of
the continent-he would discover that
there is still exercised in every day
life that fine courtesy towards and
concern for others that are termed
good manners.
Early in the last century a poet Ia
mented that the worlds male chivalry
had persisted out" and another author
was sick at heart because it was no
longer fashionable for youth to treat
age with poiiteness." And from time
immemorial, no doubt, there have been
AilOSC WIZ pOlllNeO " lllG SOOu OlN
times" and said with sigh that
manners are not now as they were
then" For some ineXplicable reason
we are prone to think that the best
times and best things are those of the
long ago. not of the present or the
future. Yet, if an honest comparison
is made it will invariably be found
that the times and the people are
growing better; they are advancing,
not retrOgrading. Civilization, like
revolutions, does not go backward.
And so manners, being a necessary adj
junct to civilization, are keeping step
with the progress of the times. 1t
may be that formality is not so eiab-
crate now as it was a hundred years
or fifty years ago. but among we'll
bred persons there is the same spirit
of gentleness and Difference that char
acterized the corresponding class of
persons when powdered wigs and
beauty patches were worn. In those
days there were coarse Doors; at the
present time there are coarse Doors,
some of them having barrels of money
and moving in Society" In the flu
ture there will be coarse Doors, lack
ing in brains and manners. But their
existence is not proof of decline in
that fine department which marks gem
tlefolks

The Summer Man.
From Harper,s Weeklv

In summer at the mountain blue.
Where life is fair but men are few.
He gaily sports, he has his day;
And by the sad sea wave also
he is a much admired beau
Until the season fades away.
He dresses in the hight of style,
There's fascination in his smile,
He's nimble in the giddy dance:
He picnics plans with ready skill.
With love-makings he plays at will,
But is not hurt by Cupids lance.
He wins the good will of mammals.
The dark suspicion of papas
He waves away with graceful tact;
He sings love songs with tender power.
He always wears a little flower,
He knows both how to speak and
act.
At archery, in tennis court.
He rivals all In the gay sport.
But plays so that the fairest wins.
And yet, through some most subtle art.
The vanquished bellies still take his
part
And leave him with unpublished sins.
But summer joys alas! are brief;
He's cut down like the tender leaf
When blushing fields grow sadly
brown;
Mamfnas and splendid girls no more
Admire him as they did Of yore;
He's but a dry goods clerk in town.
And all who smiled in sweet July
IN dull September pass him by;
Now he's quite another clan:
And though he wears a faultless hat
And just az stylish a cravat
He only Is a summer man.

COTTON STILL KING.

Figures made public by the Treasury
Bureau of Statistics show that cotton
still stands at the head of the coun-
try's exports and it bids fair to main
tain that position for some time to
come. During the eleven months end
ed May 81 the cotton exports amount
ed to $30S, 747, 900, being an excess of
S., 900, 900 over the previous record for
any eleven months. The recent high
prices of cotton have made the values
show up larger, though the number of
pounds exported was less than in some
other years Should the June figures
show up as well as did those of June
last, the years cotton exports will
make a new high-water mark, going
in the neighborhood of $4,000, 900 be-
yond the banner year, 1901. "Compar-
ing total values of cotton exported
with those of preceding years." says
the report lit may be said that 1908
seems likely to show the largest total
of raw cotton exported in any year
in the history of our commerce"
Meanwhile the domestic consumption
is increasing rapidly. During last year
the mills of the United States con-
sumed 4,0S3, 0O0 bales of cotton, most
of it, of course, being of American
growth, though the importations of
foreign raw cottons are constantly on
the increase. 1t is estimated that the
importations of Egyptian cotton dur
ing the current year will amount to
not less than S0,OO0,OO0 pounds, IN ad-
dition of 20,0O0,00O pounds of "fiocks' or
cotton waste, having altogether value
of about S12,000,000 And while the
expectation of raw cotton continues
tured cotton is growing at a healthful
and encouraging rate, the estimate for
the current year being about $4,000
900.
The South has up to the present en-
joyed a practical monopoly of pro-
ducing cotton for the world md it
will continue to do so for long time,
in all probability, unless high prices
and fictitious values force the for
eigners to turn elsewhere to develop
source of supply. The Souths SUI
premacy rests largely upon the fact
that she can produce the staple cheaper
than any other section. SO long as she
produces, to be sold at a reasonable
figure, enough raw cotton to supply
the demand-not too much, but enough
she will continue to do the worlds
raw cotton business.
