LoM Tide.

The tide is out on the shore;
 And what is there left? A drear, Blank waste of mud and weed and sand, The wreck of disenchanted land; Dank, stale sea odors waited up From the dregs of the oceans emptied A stranded boat on the bar close by; Nothing to hear but the gulls weird As it circles far and near.
 The tide goes out from the soul;
 And what is there left--ah, mel But barren stretches of empty days, Dulled hope, lost courage, doubt and
 haze;
 Vain, sorrowfuI memories waited up From the dregs of the spirits emptied
 cup,
 With powers stranded on beds of clay, When they might sail on to glorious Far out on the open sea? But back to the waiting shore s E. The tides of the ocean turn. The waves rush in with welcome shocks To storm the base of the lonely rocks :s8 The waters deepen, and foam. and Till they cover the harbor's muddy bed; A breeze springs up and the white
 spray flies,
 And the grounded sailboats fall and And thrill from bow to stern.
 Spirit of God! Thou art
 To soul like the ocean tide, Ever thy vast, mysterious sea Touches the shores of humanity. When shall our spirits cease to know The pain of an endless ebb and flow, Our powers rise up from the slime and
 mud,
 With the life tides always at the flood! n ,1r l, a,-kc t,.,e

MoRE sOBER BRI1IsH soLDIERs

The Boer war sobered the British army, and it is also more sober in an- other way than it was. At the recent annual meeting of the Royal Army Temperance association of England Lord Roberts made the statement that nearly, if not quite, twenty-five per .cent. of all the enlisted men of the British standing army were total ab- stainers, and added that whereas the army was formerly called a national school of intemperance 1t is to-day rec ognized as a national school of temper .anee. The Army Temperance associa- tion, which claims much of the credit for the improved condition of the army in this respect. has been at work in India for sixteen years and in England for eleven years. Tn India this associ- ation has established a separate room for its members in, every barracks, and efforts are making to do the same in Great Britain, where the government voted the association a grant of SS,SOO Hast year. The association encourages the soldier in habits of sobriety, helps ito provide him with rational entertain- ment, supplies him with good reading and furnishes comfortable quarters for his leisure hours at the post where he is stationed.
 To be soldier, and especially a pri- Vate soldier, may almost be said to be enough to drive a man to drink, but there are advantages in being sober. even for those destined to be food for powder. They live more comfortably while they do live.

4 raRIFF rRArfs A TX

The United States is in a way to dis cover that the preferential tariff which Canada maintains in favor of Great Britain is a tax. That tariff is in many directions plainly operating to our dis- advantage just as Canada intended 1t should. Thus the new Canadian sta- tistical Yearbook shows that last year as compared with the year before Can ada's dutiable imports of cotton goods from Great Britain increased from S5,- orc. .524 to S5,504,176, of fancy goods from $1, ,055, ,153 to $1,274,57S, of iron and steel products from $4,74S,1s7 to $7, ,SSS, ,642, of woolen goods from $S,S6O,asS to $11,1o5.- 9S7 and of earthenware, china and glass from $1,ff1,440 to $1,267,375. Other du- tiable imports from the mother country X show similar gains. Nearly all of these increased imports are of goods which we produce in the United States and which we to some extent export to Canada. The only reason why large part of this trade which goes to Great Britain does not come to the United States is the Canadian preferential tar- if.
 The Canadians seem to be pleased with their tariff, as they have a right to be. But tariff that is tax on our prosperity cannot, of course, be pleasing to us.

THE LATEST R RUSSIAN BLUNDER.
 Russia Is having many kinds of trou- ble. The action of the ships of her Bal-
 tic fleet in firing on British fishing ves-
 sells in the North Sea is nothing short
 of amazing. It will be decidedly inter-
 eseing to see what the explanation of the performance is. Drunkenness, ig- Inorance, cowardice, undue anxiety, or |freakishness of some kind are among the explanations that suggest them |selves. Whatever the cause, there can be no doubt that Russia will hasten to do the proper thing in making apology and reparation. With the inflamed
 state of public opinion in Great Britain,
 and coming on the heels of the sinking by the vladivostok squadron of the
 British steamer Knight Commander and the Red Sea incidents, this latest outbreak of course makes large stir lin England, but it is being treated by the British authorities calmly and cool ly, though promptly and firmly. That there will be no serious trouble is indi- cated by the action of the worlds stock markets yesterday. There was hardly Ia ripple of excitement over the matter.
 What next? Will some reckless, in competent or scared Russian officer Lombard New York? The Russians have certainly made some astonishing mistakes in this war, not the least of which was thinking the Japanese wouldn't fight.

A HAPPY KANSAS FA RMER.

The happy, happy farmer is holding
 his own, and hissown Is a good slice of what is going. What can be done, and l is done, in Kansas farming is indicated by the cheerful story of c. H. Felt, of
 Rome in that State. MT. Felt went to
 Kansas ia 1893 and bought section of land for $16,150. He was then $300O l in debt. He has made specially of raising wheat, He has one COW and
 one horse but not pig. He rents his farms for one-third of the crop, deliv- cred at market. In 1894, 1895 and 1896,
 he realized enough from liis share of the wheat to pay off his indebtedness.
 These were among the worst wheat years ever had in Kansas. In 1897 his
 share of the wheat came to $4,053.91
 with which he purchased a half sec- tion of land. In 1901 his crop was 29,-
 S32 bushels. From the proceeds of his farnl-one-third of the crop (wheat
 alone) he has bought $40 acres in
 eight years, besides paying a debt of
 5000. He has now 1,2S0 acres of land, two sections, which are worth $5,OOO a
 quarter, making $4O,OOO, and deducting
 the $1615O which he paid for the land first bought leaves $23,S5O. This repre-
 sents the profit there has been in wheat farming in eight years for MT. Felt.

A writer in the Deutsche Colonial zeitung thinks that the legislation en- acted by the negro founders of Liberia to keep the white man out is keeping prosperity out, too. The laws of fifty years ago. he says. have hindered nor- nal. healthy development. They stand in the way of industrial progress. The law that forbids foreigners to buy Li- berian land and the law that forbids foreigners to carry on trade in the in terior are calculated to contract trade where development is needed. It is a mistake to eonfine the active energies of the foreigners to the ports opened to them. In other lands these laws might not be so bad, but here they hinder de- velopment. Another evil is the con- stant warfare among the natives in the interior. This disturbs trade relations, besides having demoralizing effect on those who are looking on. No one is willing to invest large sums in an en- terprise over which he exercises no kind of control. Under existing trade relations and conditions, the Liberians own the land on which the warehouses. banks and business blocks of Liberian cities are built. Even when houses are built by foreigners with foreign money the deeds must appear in the names of Liberians. It is easy to see industrial success under such conditions is doubt ful, to say the least.
