The Secret of Gladstone's Power.

British weekly
 MT. Gladstone's Christian example made his Christian testimony powerful. and there is much in MT. Morley's book which shows how habitually he practised the presence of God and lived under law to Christ Above all. he was a Christian statesman. He spoke habitually to mems souls The signal splendor of his life is that he did not appeal to men on the lower and baser side. but spoke to them capable of great and noble things. He called on them to walk in hard paths. When he achieved his great triumphs in the country 1t was because he appealed to the generous wrath of the people against wrong He never pandered to what is little and low and mean among men. He believed that there was that in the human spirit which would an swer the heavenly call, and he was there to speak it. the friend of freedom and right eousness and peace. No detraction on the part of his enemies no weakness or blum der on his own part, can rob him of the magnificent eulogy that he lived and wrought among us as to keep the soul alive in England.

Reports from New York Indicate an 1m-
 mense Crop.
 According to reports received from va rious States where apples are grown, there will be plenty of that fruit in the market this winter. A report from New York says:
 Reports of the apple crop received here by large dealers indicate that the American yield will be about thirty per cent larger than last year. and fourteen per cent above the average for the last ten years. Some dealers estimate the output at 10000, 900 barrels"
 New Y6rk State Is among the largest apple producers in the East. It is estl- mated its crop will be seventeen per cent larger than that of last year
 Exports of apples last year were valued at ss.237.s94 but crop conditions in Europe this season are reported god and the de- mand possibly will be less
 The English will also enjoy cheap apples this winter. the following from a late Lon- sular report being true:
 This years fruit harvest throughout England is the most abudant ever known. Apples are showing a record crop. There is a glut of this fruit in the market From Tasmania alone some 10000 to S0.ooU Doxes are arriving weekly. and these are reported superior to the apples from Spain ana POT tugal. Huge quantities are arriving from Italy, and prices are quite disorganized. New season English apples. Keswick cod lins can be bought at three shillings C72 cents) a half bushel. and Australian apples are quoted low two shiilings HS cents) a case, which must mean los to the ship pers on every sold. The Amer'can fruit Is in fair demand considering the state of the market. There is no longer any question about the demand for and popularity of American apies in England. Sales will steadily increase and the trade will be more than. ever A profitable one"

LAND LOTTERY SCHEMES.

The LlnCOln (NeD. J otdte JouTHdl has an editorial about the government tai land lottery scheme in the Rose bud reservation. which 1t calls Tho Rosebud Fiasco." The Journal de- clares that at least a million and half of dollars were spent for railroad fares by people who rushed there to get a chance in the drawing, and that there were 1O7.OOO registrations made. Out of all these there will not be more than 1.500 farms taken. and those who won must pay $4 per acre for the land without knowing anything of it's value. Then The Journal has this to say:
 It Is possible to find in the South and Southwest large areas of rich land that can be bought outright for but a trihe more than the listed value of these Rosebud homesteadsa A comparative ly inexpensive journey and small session of farm worth intrinsically many times as much. acre for acre. as these lands on the edge of the semi arid belt of South Dakota. The expe- rience of the government in opening these lands may give a valuable hint to the immigration boards that are now working to draw land buyers to the southwest.
 The Journal is correct as to the chance to get cheaper homes fin the South and Southwest and in a much preferable section to the Rosebud re- zion oyer which so many people went wild. In almost all the Southern States good farms and unimproved farming lands can be purchased at less per acre than these people will pay for the Rosebud lands, and in a country infinitely to be preferred to 'the semi arid belt of South Dakota" The pur- chasers would have better homes, bet ter climate and better surroundings, and would doubtless be more content ed. However. we are not prepared to agree with these further suggestions:
 Let excursion rates be made to Texas and Louisiana with the promise that a grand drawing" shall be held and that the holders of certain lucky numbers shall be privileged to buy land at a slight advance over its real value. If the excursions are skillfullY advertised and the lottery feature is properly exploited, the Rosebud craze can be duplicated in every State in the South and the Southwest. The disap- polntment of the Rosebud pilgrims will have no effect in holding back the rush when another drawing takes place If 1t Is only advertised widely enough as a lottery, the people will crowd ali the cars leading toward the place of reg istration.
 Such a plan as this would make bus mess for the railroads and spectators and also make things lively for all concerned. but we are not ready to en- dorse' any kind of gold-brick lottery scheme in order to bring home seek CTS here. We do not believe either in the principle or policy of it. nor do we believe the results would be satis- factory Nor yet do we believe it is necessary to resort to schemes of this nature in order to get immigrants to

A Senator At Church.

Manchester. H, Union.
 The fact that Senator Fairbanks attended services at the Bromfield street church in Boston without being recognized appears 10 have struck certain newspaper editors with astonishment. But what do these editors in far-away states think Boston peo- pie go to church for. anyway
 Again. if Senator Fairbanks was not rec ognized. who could have told of the fact, if not by himself? What. then, did Sen ator Fairbanks go to church for? It ap pears that he was treated courteously, even one knew that he is a candidate for the vice presidency He was accorded a seat. was made welcome to listen to the music and the sermon. and was at liberty to worship in accordance with the dictates of his own conscience so long as he did not disturb others. What more could have been accorded him if he had been recognized as the great and only Republican vice-pres- idential candidate in this year of grace? Did he hope to be called to the platform beg pardon, to the pulpit, or what did he expect?
 The good Methodists of Bromfield street are courteous to all strangers. and the possession of a beard or the lack of 1t is not considered a matter of serious impor- tance. Senator Fairbanks wholly unknown, was made at home in spite of his beard. although the greater number of the au- dience were clean -shaven. and 1t is altogeth- CT probable that he would have been per mltted to remain. even though 1t had been known who he was. what he is. and what hs hopes to be.

 Captain Clark was at San Francisco in command of the gunboat Bennington.
 When ashore he spent much time in the Mechanics Library, where he met some of the best players in the city. According to the story, when the time came to appoint a man to command the oregon a friend of Clark's in the Navy Department at Washington nut his name forward.

Our ..Nationale President

Chattanooga Times.
 Senator Beveridge. in a recent arti- cle, says that President Roosevelt is the most national of our Presidents because his father was a Northern man, his mother was a Southern wo- man. he was raised and educated in the East. and his early manhood was spent in the West.
 And this Is precisely the reason the Southern people can neither under stand nor forgive his needless and fa- natical agitation of lthe race question. With Southern blood in his veins 1t is scarcely conceivable that he did not know that social equality for the ne- gro is an impossibility that nothing can be more harmful to the negro him self than it's suggestion--and nothing more insulting and offensive to the Southern white man. The very fact that he is by birth and training ma tional" makes it all the more difficult to escape the conviction that he is will ing, by the Crum, the Indianola and other incidents to offend and hunil- fate the people of dozen Democratic States for political effect in a few doubtful States.
