HKNATOH MITCH I.I.I. ON TAIIIIT,
Senator Mitchell of Oregon, made
one of ills characteristic speeches 111
the senate September "0th, and
among many other things well
spoked said:
"And speaking In part for tiie

not a fact that the suggestions and
recommendations made by tho

Control of the next congress, tin
well ii8 the presidential prize, Is to
be fought for nt the approaching
election, Hays the Pioneer Prcn.
The element of pernonal power nnd
perHonnl distinction, together with
itH enormotiH accompaniments of
patronage, make the lnttcr first In
the public eye. Ah a matter of fact,
the former I, on the whole, the
more Important matter in assisting
to shape the the destinies of the
nation. Whatever be the result of
the presidential conliict, in which
the republican party lias now a
distinct advantage, the probability
that it will be In the majority In
both houses of congress approaches
closely to certainty. The senate,
though hold by a narrow margin, is
safe. It may be counted to stand
practically as it does to-day. Even
an unexpected revolution In the
relatlvo partystrenglh in any of the
slates whoe legislatures will chooe
senators this winter would make no
diIorenee. For It is a matter of
common knowledge that the politi
cal complexion of astatelegislatureis
the last and hardest thingto change.
Now York and Massachusetts and
Connecticut and many other states
have -eateil democrats In the gov
ernor's chair while the republicans
easily held their control of the legis
lature. It Is in the great cities es
pccinlly that the heavy democratic
vote is cast, and It is there that op
portunities for fraud arise which
the party Is not hasty to reject.
Hut the cities are unable to over
come tiio distributed vote of the
country districts, which decides
where tlio legislative balance of
power shall lie. Whatever uncer
tainties surround the general result
of tlio election, the ro-establishinent
of republicanism in congress is not
among them.
TIIINK NAUC1IIT A TKIIXK,
it is not the big industries embrac
ing thousands of dollars capital
alone that will cause a boom in any
town, but tlio careful nursing and
support given the smaller ones will
also littvo a wholesome effect on
trade. Many seemingly small and
IndUl'dcnt iudttstrlus,iif encouraged
and sustained, will bo a mighty lov
er In raising your o n trade to a lev
el witli other communities. It is
not so iuti"h a matter how you In
vest your thousands of dollars to
build up your home trade, as where
you spund your single dollar with
the most benellcial results.

III giving ix recent decision the
interstate commerce commission
held that 11 was the object of the
legislators to protect the public
against the ralhoads, not to protect
the roads against their o u mana
ge! s. Tills opinion shows how
dilUciiIt the wink of the eoniiulhsion
is becoming, and that the logical
attempt to icgulato Interstate lull
roads will, sooner or later, bilng
(hum entirely within government
control.
Thivati:" Joseph W. Flfor, tlio
Republican citudldnto for governor
of Illinois, was lately presented with
a historic cnuo. The presentation
was made at lloekford, III., and the
cane was once the property of Abra
ham Lincoln. Its romantic history
antedates Its possession by tlio mar
tyred president. When the life
blood of Senator Hroderlek of Cali
fornia was ebbing away from the
bullet wound Indicted by the pistol
of Judge Terry, he gave tills cne to
ills lifelong friend, Connes. lt

"hroderlek to Count." Coiiiion
presented theortiio to President Lin
coln. After the deth of Lincoln
his widow gave it to Jew 1J. Dubois
from whom Charles K Llpplneott

Tlio iniblislied selections from tlio
diary of tlio Kmperor Frederick dur
ing die l'Tanco-Cieriiian war tlnow
much light on the policy which
preceded the foundation of the
German Kinpire. Frederick is
shown to havo played a more im
portant part in that policy than has
been suppo-ed. His note dated July
li l, 1S70, shows the writer's (pilct
conlldeneo when war was Inevitable.
He says: "My principal thought Is
how to carry out thellberalorpiiiizn
tion of .(icrniany alter peace is
seemed." lix'eu after Sedan tho
Kinpire was hardly thought of. The
diary says: "lHsnuirck came to see
me. I took cure not to impress It
upon him, although convinced that
it must come nbut." He adds that
ucspoKcio ine King ou tlio same
subject, but the king declared I i.ptf
rlallsin uutiiniatud. Fiedeiiek had
dlllleulty In shakiiiB bN father's
resolution.
The diary altogether is likeJy
further to raise Frederick in the
world's wtlinatlon. It tells how
strongly ho opposed the bomhurtl
inoitt of Paris, and declari that ho
was proud of the reproaches he had
to endure In consequence. Ho was
convinced that Alsace-Lorraine must
be taken, but slgnllleantly calls the
poseesslon a precarious one.
The diary contains many remarks
showing that he had resolved to
cultivate most Intimate relations
with Kugland, though apprehensive
that tho predilection of Uerntany
for America and ltuvla would
render It ditllctilt to do so. Ono
entry states that Napoleon, whllo a
ivrtsonor at Wllbalnwhohe, proposal
an alliautv with Clernmny for war
against Kugland.
