FLASHES FROM THE COMET.

And turmoil ragged upon the street
Where once regned peace and quiet

To prove we can but, fail,
But some folks think twas a red-hot stone
Hurled from that comets tail.
The congressman ran riot
In Washington, one day,
The insurgents reckless tried to fire
The Cannon, in the fray;
Just how the trouble started,
The facts ! cannot nail,
But some think twas ignted

The gay spring togs were not despoiled

FARMERS PROSPERITY.
Iowa staIwart sounds an Alarm on
Tariff TinkerinE.
Des Moines Capital.

Des Moines Capital
We are not sure that the farmers of
Iowa realize their own prosperity. Some
times It Is impossible to make one realize
that he is doing well But the farmers Of
Iowa can certainly lay claim to the best
times they ever had.
Some of them are wondering how long
these conditions may continue Some peo-
pie are saying that when the farmers be-
gin to produce more, prices will go down
Prof. Curtis OF Ames, in speech in Des
Moines said that there was a shortage
in the hog crop because of the decline I'm
the price of hogs two years ago, which
discouraged the breeding Of hogs. But we
are disposed to disagree with Prof Curtis
Hogs are now sold before they are years
old At less age than that they are
converted into salt meats. The truth is
that everything is high because the pro-
tective tariff is keeping out foreign made
goods. Keeping out foreign made goods
means that the American people are doing
their own manufacturing, hence have full
employment at full pay, This condition has
been true so long that those who live on
salarales and by wages have become lib
eral spenders OF money The farmer re-
ceives the benefit OF Of this liberal spend
ing of incomes. Nothing can take this
condition Of prosperity from the farmer ex-
eept repeal Of the protective tariff OF its
important modification. The politicians are
threatening to do these things and we warn
the farmers OF this state TO beware of
these political schemes. Not a man Is
promising greater prices for farm products
Nearly every man is promising lower
prices And we shall be amazed II any Of
the farmers OF this state are induced TO
cooperate with the politicians toward the
destruction Of the presennday farming
prosperity

DEMoCRAcY's BANNER.
An Occasional Dinner Esteemed n
Helpful Innovation.


New York Evening Post.
The Commoner congratuates the coun-
try and itself on the growing popularity Of
democratic dinners, and begs to recommend
the festal meal as the most appropriate te
way of honoring the memory of jefferson
the week after next. AT this moment" f."
it says. when the principles OF jefferson
are boldly assailed by the dominant party,
it would be well If in every precinct
throughout this country men could gather
not merely for the purpose of paying tribute
to an inNividual named Jefferson, Aut for
the more important business of holding
aloft the banners upon which are in
scribed the principles 10 which this ma
tion owes its birth and to which 1t will
owe Its preservation" Holding aloft the
banner between the oyster and the soup
may appear at first sight, rather
tedious performance; but in the long
winter of discomfort that has surrounded
the democracy, II needs a little solid food
to keep up the thinnest amount OF courage
Shut out for so long from the public
crib, it has been a choice for the demo-
cracy between starving and paying for
its own dinner. It is by no means r.
valueless habit in a great political party
to practise laying ones way as one goes
along. Let us hope that when the demo-
cracy does finally win its way towards
ravening for all it may devour but faith
full to the habit of self-support it has
acquired in the lean years.

There Is much animated discussion among
army officers concerning the provisions of
the tentative general order prescribing the
physical test for members OF the military
establishment. The text OF the order was
published in the Army and Navy Register
of last week and its provisions are being
conscientlously tried out under practical
conditions by officers attached TO the army
war college and those on duty at Fort
Myer Reports Of the provisions Of the
order will be submitted to the chief of staff
by April 10. So far as may be learned
from the opinions expressed by those Off
GERS most familiar with the order It meets
with approval as a general proposition, so
long as II is evident there is to be no modi-
ficaton OF the annual physical test beyond
that which is specified in behalf Of officers
on duty I'm the tropics. The recommended
tions Of changes likely to be made are
destined to include an appeal for greater
elasticity in the requirements Of the daily
physical exercise. whether riding or walk
ing, so that due allowance may be made
for Interruptions on account Of rigorous
weather and it is evident there will have
TO be established indoor equivalents in the
way OF athletics to take the place OF the
three-mlle daily walk and the sx-mile daily
ride, These and other conditions are likely
that the finally adopted order will be salts
factory and will not be unreasonable or
excessive in its requirements

The hrst tax returns coming into the
county assessor indicate a downward
revision. But that was to have been
expected as a result of the change of
the revenue law by the late democratic
legislature making assessors elective
instead of appointiye. It is the oft
taught lesson of experience that the
assessor is much more lenient to his
copstituents If he owes his job to
them.

Now that congress has turned down the
proposition requiring the accounting Of
fcers of the treasury to annul the charges
against army officers for other payments
alleged by the auditor TO have been made
for exercising higher command, it is eX
pected the secretary of war will again
take up the question in its relation to the
stoppage of the pay to those officers most
directly interested. The subject was brought
to the attention of Mr.. Dickinson during
the last week, but he was not ready to
commit himself to any decision. 1t may be
that he will take no action at ALL which
leaves the matter just where it has been
all along, with the auditors request for the
stoppage of pay lacking departmental ap-
proval. This would permit the accounting
officers to take the question into court,
but II is understood that no such action
is contemplated. There are those who be-
lieve the secretary of war should make an
other effort to obtain legislation relieving
officers from this obligation, IL the question
is not submitted to the court, which the
experts say would hand down a decision in
favor of the officers. The permanent effect
of the situation as 1t now stands is that an
officer may not obtain an adjustment of
a claim of any sort with this ruling Of the
Puditor standing unassailed.

Experiments are being conducted by the
army subsistence department with corned
beef hash, as we'll as with corned beef, as
substitute for bacon in the haversack
ration. 1t is desired to adopt a pound OF
the hash or beef in lieu OF the three
fourths OF a pound OF bacon, and it Is be-
lleved that the former will materially add
to the nutrltve value OF the ration, be-
sides making It more palatable. The price
Of bacon has increased to such a figure
that It is desirable to find a substitute
which shall be cheaper and stil retain the
sustaining quality OF the meat component.
The subsistence officers are not entirely
satisfied with the arrangement of the
haversack ration in the matter of cover
ing some Of the articles, It is proposed
to have the meat portion placed in drawn
cans and to carry the coffee also In tins,
which some OF the experts believe will con-
tribute to its strength and flavor.
