Optimlsts and Pessimists.
Cincinnati Inouirer)

tClncinnati Inquirer.)
Aside from individual differences of
views Of life, based chiefly on tempera-
ment, there seems to be a geographical
llne dividing optimists and pessimists.
The jewellers in the West as a whole
there has been a general concensus that
NE Is good, that happiness is the lot
OF most and that the Indebtedness
wmch exists is a passing disease. To
the old heathern world life was a low
Gus existence, from which it was a cal
amlty to be taken, and it was ONLY IN
DER theological auspices that it came to
be considered a vale of tears" or a
city OF wrath" to be fled from. On the
other hand, underlying the religious
buddhistic and Brahminical, which DOM
mate the vast population of the East.
is the sentiment that life per Sc is an
evil. The Westerner shrinks from the
idea of destruction, and rather than
harbor it has been willing to contem-
plate undying existence in an internal
and terrifying hell. The dweller of the
East, on the contrary, given to contem-
plation and psychical theorizing, hopes
by many successive incarnations spent
in constant self-abnegation to at last
reap the reward of being able to plunge
himself into nothingness.
1t is only with civilization that pes
simism has developed. 1t grows large
ly out of the aDnarent iroDOssih;l;4,, &c
reconciling all the long continued suf-
terlng, misery, oppression and crime of
earth with any theory of divine power
and goodness. That a man is a pessi-
mist does not necessarily mean that he
is a worse man than his neighbors. Such
view may be the result of a keener
realization of the suffering and evil in
the world than comes to most, and far
more poignant than any one left in ear
lier days, when pessimism was compar-
atively unknown.

CONGRESS MUST ACT FIRST.

The Nation will not tolerate an utter
lack of control over very wealthy men
of enormous power in the industrial.
and therefore in the social lives of all
our people, some Of whom have shown
themselves cynically and brutally indif-
ferent to the interest of the people; and
if the Congress does not act, with good
tempered and sensible but resolute
thoroughness, in cutting out the evils
and in providing an effective supervi-
sion, the result is certain to be action
on the part of the separate States,
sometimes wise, sometimes ill-judged
and extreme, sometimes unjust and
damaging to the railroads or other cor
porations, more often ineffective from
every standpoint, because the Federal
courts declare it unconstitutional.

AFTER THE INITIATION.

&C. L. Cory, in New York Sun. }
The house is full of medicine
And mystery profound;
We cannot even run about
Or make the slightest sound;
They keep the big piano shut,
We cannot strike note;
The doctors been here twenty times
Since father rode the goat.
He joined the lodge week ago
Got in at a. M,
And sixteen members brought him home,
Though he says he brought them.
his leg was sprained, and one big rip
Had rent his Sunday coat
The members had a jolly time
When father rode the goat.
He's resting on the couch today
And practicing the signs
The hailing, signal call, and grip
And other monkey shines;
He utters passwords meath his breath
And other things he'll quote
The members had an evenings work
When father rode the goat.
he has brilliant uniform
All red and white and blue,
A hat with plumes, and scarlet braid.
And golden badges, too,
But, somehow, when we mention it.
His visage wakes grim
We wonder if he rode the goat
Or if the goat rode him.

The Ely Gloom has been seeing
things again. According to its issue
of last week, which has Just come
to hand of the exchange editor, it has
become fixed in the morbid delusion
circuit of the Gloom that the News
Is opposed to sewerage In Ely, op-
posed to Incorporation and opposed
TO everything else. Notice of which
is excusable only in so far as it calls
attention to the phenomenal powers
of the Gloom to comfort kind words
into dire attacks. The News made
the first suggestions in favor of a
sewer system for Ely and has since
encouraged the project, believing a
sewer necessary in Ely to save it
from plague, its exceedingly I'M
healthy location demanding that every
possible precaution be taken. Re-
garding Incorporation, the attitude
of the News has been made plain on
several occasions. 1t cares not one
whit whether Ely retains its pres
ent form or disincorporates. 1t has
no criticism to make of incorpora-
tin, having dealt solely with the ex-
penses of Ely municipal government
as conducted to date. These ex-
penses have put an outrageous bur-
den upon business men in Ely and
have compelled a number to close
their doors. The News does not be-
lieve such management to be in the
interests of either the business in
terests or the people, who pay the
freight. 1t is all very nice for those
who draw money from the city but
it is tough on those who foot the
bills. In the meantime, Ely City.
without Incorporation, has in the
same length of time made ten times
over the progress that has been made
in Ely, while sidewalks, streets and
other public improvements made in
Ely City in the last year far ex-
coed in value and extent the COM
bined improvements of the same
kind that have been brought about in
E-y proper during its entire history.
The News desires to see all of the
district grow and all of the people
of the district prosper. Otherwise it
would commend the reckless extrav-
agance of Ely municipal government
and thus urge the town on to the
rocks of absolute bankruptcy, NUM-
cipal and individual, rather than put
stumbling blocks in the way through
calling the attention of the people to
these extrayagances and urging that
they be checked. as it has from time
