Z n FRENCH state railroad loan amounting to ~$l9.000,000 just
~ offered in Paris was subscribed thirtytwo times over in four
- - hours! This means that people csme forward with $780,
100000 to invest! This is according TO an official statement given
,out ono hour after the closing Of tho books.
on Fuller detail would undoubtedly show that the greater part Of
this hugo amount was made up Of small subscriptions sent in by
thousands Of French workers with small incomes and savings.
s No other modern people have shown so much thrift, such
steady instinct on the part OF laborcrs and peasants to put aside
little sums out Of slender earnings, and such patriotic and confident
Willingness TO invest those savings in the fortunes and enterprises
~f the state.
b. This began in the face Of appalling disaster and obligation. In
S1s,l Germany loaded France with q war indemnity of 1000, 600 1000.
in September. 1879, France had paid every cent Of it. At the present
moment the French national debt is stupcndous. The funded debt
amounts to So sO 000 900 and the floating debt to $3i7 O00y O00-the
heaviest debt ever yet run up by any nation in the world!
This eager, natural rush Of small savings from the pockets Of
careful people at tho invitation Of the National Government goes fa
to show why the credit Of tho French nation is 70 unassaiable.

AID INFINlTUM.

4 rTER thirty years Of work the astronomers Of Harvard Uni
verity announce that they have finished a Photographic
- man of the entire heavens. SO careful and minute has been
their task that the sections Of the chart pat together would cover
more than five acres. About 100000 stars have been taken.
Three thousand seven hundred and ninety-sx separate negatives were
made during the last year alone. The job has cost altogether
100000.
The patience and conscientiouness with which these men Of
science plan and carry out gigantic compilations are the more mar
verous when one realizes thst they know all the time the discovery
of some new instrument or the enlargement of an old one may sud
denly open up new fields requiring . complete revision Of their work.
Something Of the sort happens in ths case. The largest re-
fleeing telescope-the b~t type for photogaphy-hss been up I"
othis time at Mount Wilson, California. Il has a diameter Of sixty
..inchea. Now a telescope Of one hundred inches is announced. How
socu must the stsr-eazers add millions Of new suns to their charts?

HOW IT'S DONE.

IN OW TO LIVE ON NOTHING 4 YEAR'-that fascinating
art which Thsckcray discusses so exhaustively in "vanity
Fair"-nceds footnotes to bring it up to date. A woman
in Minneapolis who has made a specially OF costless living adds u
new wrinkle. With her four children she quietly moves into a vacant
house without botherng owner or agent. She modesty retires to tho
back rooms. II the house bears a "For Rent sign, she replaces it
with one reading "For Sac,' so that she may have fewer callers.
When the owner finds out about it she refuses to pay rent and uses
all kinds OF technialiies to delay custer proceedings until she can
make . mysterious fitting TO another place. She has occupied three
houses in this way.
This is neither more nor less than the same art and instinct
th,t animate our brood Of CUCKOOs who lodge their advertising in
the pages Of The World. Those who have tried it say the most
fascinating game on earth-whie it LASTS getting bed and board
at somebody clses expense.

since then submitted Is report sug-
costing a revision Of tine wooden
schedules upon that basis.
These Democratic apologists do
not attach any importance to the
fact that the Yooi revision bin Just
passed by Congress was put together
IN quite the same manner that It's
predecessor was. Indeed, the situa-
ton is exactly as 1t was when
the president vetoed the former BILL
IT Is true that the tariff board has
since submitted it's report, but as the
Democratic legislators paid abso-
lutely, no attention to 1t and went
ahead with their same old system
Of Iog-roiling, the report might Just
as well not have been made so fs.r
as they were concerned.
If anything woE.d De shown by a
presidential veto of the wool re,

certify of the Democrats upon tariff
revision. They have labored )fnces-

tariff bills for the purpose. of in,

are afraid to tackle tariff revision
upon a scientific basis for the very
simple reason that they, would most;
likely find themselves ain- hole"+

'High tariff does not protect the
American working man. True. it
protects him from competition with

This Inconsistent statement is
made inethe-course of one of its silly
arguments on the tariff question by
the clarksburg Exponent A.,yhigh
tariff does not protect the working
man yet 1T does protect him. Queer
logic that. The qualification Of
high" in respect to the protective
tariff, however, is open to varied
construction. The Exponent, likely
rests ITSELF assured on the assump-
ton that a high tariff and pro-
tective tariff are synonomus. It
might be practically SO taken in
comparison with a low Democratic
free trade tariff. but "high" tariff
is not an absolute Republican pro-
tective doctrine. :.
The Republican party advocates a
protective tariff. ut wants the tar
If schedules so adjusted as to be
high enough, while yielding a sui
icient revenue, adequately to pro-
tect American industries and wages,
but no higher. IN some instances
the Republican party has reduced
Democratic tariff schedules in Or
der to conform to the protective tar
III theory, as may be seen by COM
pairing some of the provisions of the
Infamous Wilson4Gorman tariff bill
with succeeding tariff bills,
1t is, therefore. not correct to as
sumo that a thigh" tariff and a
protective tariff are exactly the one
and the same thing. The admission
by. the Exponent, however, that a
high tariff. that is, in contradistinc-
ton to the Democratic theory. which
is doubtless the Exponent's real
meaning, does actually protect the
American working man from the
pauper labor of Europe, is import
ant, as 1t is in direct contradiction
to arguments against the protective
tarlff theory that have been made
for years by the Democrats; If the
higher tariff protects, the American
working, man from the pauper labor
Eof Europe, it likewise protects him
against the seven-cents-a-day wage
of the Ghinese2and other foreign la
borers.

they say he is a changed man, saved
from the Thoughts he had before he
