RIVER 1RAEElc.

| One does not have to give his faith
unreservedly to the grand schemes for
navigating the rivers to find interest
in the Kansas City agitation for reviv-
ing the Missouri as an artery of trade.
They've raised million dollars down
there to put traffic on the Missouri be-
tween St. Louis and their own town.
To answer the Doubling Thomases,
the Kansas City Times has been dig
ging into its old files and brings forth
the following from its issue Of April
II, 1870: ..
with the opening of spring trade
necessarily follows an active, busting
and busy time in the river line. The
Mountaineer fro ST Louis, came in
yesterday about noon heavily laden
with freight She returned at o'clock
the same evening. The Columbian also
arrived fro mtlle same place yesterday
evening at 3 o'clock, put off some
freight and passengers and proceeded
on her way to Omaha. The Viola
Belle will be in this morning on her
way to the mountains.
1.-THE Emily La Barge is also due this
morning en- route TO the lowers forts on
the upper river. The Kate Kinney, one
OF the largest, fastest and prettiest
boats that ever plowed the waters of
the turbid Missouri, is due from Omaha
this morning al 10 o'clock. James

We suppose it would be possible to
get up good deal Of confusion on the
subject. but if one cares to go direct to
the point let it be considered that in
advance of the railroads the rivers had
to do the work: that the railroads
came along and relieved the rivers, and
that now we are going to find out by
the Kansas City experiment. whether
the railroads have more than they can
do economically and are in turn to be
relieved in part by the rivers.
Great economic questions like this
to sound conclusions, or. rather. of
proceeding along logical lines of evolu-
ton. The Kansas City boost may an
ticipate the economic law little, but
not much. If that million dollar in
vestment turns out to be a good one
it will be because. in the process of
the countrys development, the time
had been reached. for return to the
river as an auxiliary means of traffic.

WEIGHED IN THE BALANCE.

One Hoffman, it doesn't matter as 10
his first name, died in New York the
other day He had been a clerk in
Wall street all his life, had saved and
scra ped and pinched and denied HIM
self necessities and refused the beggar
his penny. He saved all he earned
When he died and went to his own
place II was found that by saving and
investment he had accumulated So
000, 1000. He was a capable clerk, an
automaton as correctly adjusted as an
adding machine. The machinery held
together 10 years. Then an import
ant part broke and they sent the ma
chine TO the junk pile. His heirs are
dividing the millions
What did this mans saving amount
to to the man. What sort of gratifca-
ton could have been his simply in
the possession of millions which he
used neither for himself nor any other?
He was a faithful servant. That is
the best that can be said of him and
all that may be said over the body Of
a dead dray horse. AS a man he was
the veriest failure Considered as q
vegeta BILE he grew. But in all that
pertains to humanity he withered. The
money he gathered doesn't count. l.
may be spent in benefactions or in
wantonness and vice. The millions
is entirely neutral. The man is the
positive quantity. And the man failed.
The object of saving is the test. The
reason for accumulation is the touch
stone of trial. Men who work and
spend their lives merely for money are
all failures as Hoffman was a failure.
There is not a dollars worth OF real
wealth more in the world because
Hoffman lived. The man probably hid
his wealth and lodged his taxes.
Thousands of men are living Hoff-
mans life; grabbing for more after
they already have thousands more than
their selfishness will ever let them
spend for themselves or others; bend
ing over desks. fighting for in added
per cent, hiding mortgages, shifting
their wealth, lodging, perjuring, to add
another dollar to their accumulations.
And they will die like Hoffman. with
cred and worthless at the end of a life
as narrow as the bank vault in which
they piled the only rewards of their ill
dustry: die today little regretted and
be forgotten tomorrow.
And this in world where emporium
fly to do mans work, accom- plish
mans deed, use money to the help of a
needy world and the expansion of their
own souls jostIes them al every step,
peers in at them from the streets thru
the barred and shaded windows; in
a world where the most that the best
can do is little and where the need of
mankind is infinite, What must be the
thought Of the Hofn1ans when the
scales of human life are set before their
eyes in the last hours and the weight Of
one kindly. human. helpful deed sends
the accumulated millions of narrow
and greedy life flying toward the CELL
ing.

A FELLOW FEELING.
lsioux City Journal /,


We would have elected Mr.. Porter
four years ago If Mr.. Porter had been
able to hold the democratic vote But
fatal tactical error was made in per-
hitting George D. Perkins. of Sioux
City, to make the democratic cam
paign slogan a cry against Cummins.-
Dubuque Telegraph Herald
1t was Mr.. Porter who made that
cry, and ne had the more excuse be-
cause Mr.. Cummins was the candidate
against him and undertook from the
word go to fasten upon Mr.. Porter. the
charge of Corporation tool" The
democratic party was not held to-
gether because Mr.. Cummins. as in
the campaign for nomination, was
supported by many democrats The
work Of PROSECUTING was made easier
by its being found out that Porter was
member of the Presbyterian church
and unfamiliar with the democratic
style of taking a drink.

And to make this official self-as-

lous, they seem to forget that Iowa by
a big majority showing of votes. has
placed these popes in the ranks Of in
surgents. When CumminS became
senator and Dolliver saw a great

surgent state. Young and Perkins i'm

delegation so lined up. OF course to
pursue the illustration neither the pope

conditions extant. They can not realize
their authority now extends only to

There is another feature to be looked
at and that is. while at one
time perhaps, Cunlnins was a rebel.

party in Boston. was started by rebels
that soon became insurgents and final

selves very fast to that end, both ma
terially and statewise And all this |
leaves out of the discussion any refer |
ence to the underlying principle of re- !
form. Virtually our delegation in con- |
gress is standing for reform in the |
republican party and principles. And !
