Diamond Hunting In KentuOky.

From present indications there is no longer .

such loans are called. borrowers are
asked to liquidste part Of the principal

In other words, lenders are taking
advantage Of . technicality not only to
advance interest rates, but 10 withdraw

However. the policy has called forth

partrnents and communes, with the
provisp, however, that the Church build
ings must not be used for other than
religious purposes.
AS things are now, then, all French
priests, with the exception Of about a
hundred, have been breaking the law
during a part OF the last week by refus-
ing to conform to the statute Of 1905 or
that Of 1881. There is no reason, how
ever, to suppose that the Government
means to treat them harshly in the mat
ter OF fines. but they may be exposed TO
much privation and hardship, through
being compelled TO depend on voluntary
assistance for lodging and support.
Under such conditions the lot Of a priest
will be ~grievous in many country dis
tricts, where the parishioners are them
selves very poor.
For the moment the question Of para
mount importance to French Catholics
Is whether the Pope will expressly or
tacitly sanction or will condemn Cardinal

state Of things which would be violently
resented, and might lead to grave dis

Congress- will adjourn on Thursday next
until January 8, but there will probably not
be a quorum until January 7. il we may
judge from presidents. No legislative
work Of any importance has been done yet.
and during the few days before recess Con-
gress will continue to mark time. Counting
Sundays and Saturdays out, there will be
only six weeks Of life left to the Fifty-ninth
Congress when it meets again in January.
1t appears that a leading Republican who
said that Congress would do no more than
pass the appropriation bills at the short
session was wise in his generation.

A Protest I'm Respect of Goats.

We do not wish to make mischief, least
Of all In that s~ingularly happy family
which 10 composed Of the Federal office
holders in Washington. To rufie q
surface so phenomenally smooth-a sur
face which thus far has known no ruder
touch than the zephyr which fans it into
smiles at moe odorous and ohromatic-
this would be next door to sacrilege.
The youth who fred the Ephesian dome
were a mere coquettish hoyden COM
pared with the demon so malignant as
to inject disoord, jealousy, suspicion
into this loving Preside circle. Never
theless, facts cut q larger figure in our
philosophy than theory yer can, and so
when we see Q bulletin from the Depart
ment OF Commerce and Labor giving
important statistics in respect Of foreign
goatskins 1t seems to US that the Depart
ment Of Agriculture has been stabbed In
a most sensitive and vital spot.
The Department Of Commerce and
Labor is doing a precious il not an inval-
liable work. Far be II from us to breathe
a hint, however diplomatic, to the con-
trary. From the bulletins Of that de-
partment we daily learn the facts Of
national greatness and expansion so far
as commerce IL concerned. We are
enabled to follow the almost marvellous
increase OF our national wealth, and II
only we knew how IL would be easy to
show that the teeming millions, con-
fronted by a steady uplift in the prices
Of necessities of daily life, and concur
rently by an immovable monotony in
the matter Of salary and income, are as
steadily advancing toward the goal of
opulence and happiness. 1t is there
fore in this spirit Of approving gratitude
that we deplore the invasion by the De-
partment Of Commerce and Labor Of a
field Of ecstasy already occupied, almost
to bursting, by the Department OF Agri-
culture, with It's pioneer band of experts,
specialists and oracles. Surely there was
glory enough TO go around without this
latest trenchirg on a ground that should
have been forbidden. AS everybody
knows, the Department of Agriculture
has devoted itself to animals and plants,
to microbes. bscilli, monads and mos
quitoes, but especially to goats. Wehave
been told all about p~eachblows, hog
cholera, or MARBLES, bots and hollow
horn until quit gorged with sapience
in less important things, we have found
ourselves revealing in the surcharged
atmosphere of goats as the n undiluted
luxury conferred upon us by a fatherly
and fiawless Government.
Why, then, should the Department OF
Commerce and Labor disquiet and dis
turb us with this bulletin Of the impor-
tation of g~oatskins? We care nothing
about the relative importance Of the
rubber trade, the shrinking in pig tin and
the ~wavering altitude Of sausage covers
and plain wool. Enough for US to know
that the Department Of Agriculture long
ago consecrated itself to goats, and that
this action on the part Of the Department
of Commerce and Labor is az unwar-
ranted as it is offensive. We cherish, in
respect Of the last mentioned depart
ment, nothing but sentiments OF the
deepest respect. 1t is doing wonders in
the way Of amusing and encouraging the
public. Speaking Of goats, however, why
butt in?

Mr.. Bryan has been criticised in
some quarters on the ground that ne
waited until assured OF the democra-
tic nomination for the Presidency be
fore advocating government owner
sEIn of railroads thus committing his
party to a policy 10 which many of its
members object. To this criticism he
has made a conclusive reply, showing
that tyo years ago he was an avowed
advocate OF the policy in question.
And last year, in a carefully prepared
speech delivered before the Iroquols
Club in Chicago, he spoke strongly
in favor Of Government ownership,
using substantially the same ar2u
ments as he did in his recent New
York speech That Chicago speech
was not only published in substance
III the newspapers throughout the;
country. but also in Mr. Bryans own
paper. the uommoner, and from time
to time in the same jurnal the policy
has been advocated.
There is, therefore. no good reason
for the complaint that he had con-
cealed or withheld his views in this
regard
