ENATOR; ELKINS has - mfde -ithe interesting rediscovery thst ;the chief point ".of difference between e rich and the poor man is that the latter whistles. The person afflicted with poverty does this for a variety of useless-and highly immoral reasons; As he tramps hetrtbrolcenly through the graveyard of his dead hopes he whistles to keep his courage -up.--And again he .whistles, sailor like, in an effort to raise, the wind. Sometimes he does it because he is Tiotealing, as it is a fact, seriously set forth by some of the most learned .scientists, that the disfeathered biped is quite unable to whistle when his mouth is occupied , by any . sort -of ood but his own uncanhed tongue.. The late Benjamin FrankMfl, while in, a plagiaristic spirit, wrote of the - boy-wh, Tlacking- the-holy endow ment of a Trading instinct, bought a whistle at a great advance over the trust price of fhe day, and thereafter whenever he. wis robbed in the name ?f" business" humorously referred - to "the fact that he "had paid too much for his whistle." s": It is just possible "that Senator Elkins, who has no use for a poor man, , aside from requiring him to : point a moral and adorn and wag a tale, overlooks the fact that the an fortunates whose penury puts out of the questions further - purchases of machine-made whistles at rust-mde prices, continue to blow on the same old instruments the same old tunes. If the whistle of the poor man atrhoys Senator Elkins, and he must - have ' music, wef would suggest That he re place it with a grand piano; if he does not care for ' a ' concord ' of sweet nds, e fancy thatymepe6pTe would be willing to trade their whis tle for. a broiled steak.", 7 i A LOCK CANAL. T. LAST the type of canal at Panama has been decided upon by congress, . both ' houses having voted for a lock and ' against a sea-level canal, and as this 2m eets The approbation of the prcsi- dent this important and vexed que tion may be considered settled. --J-i Of course we know nothing of the -relative merits of the two Jypes,. ex- cepl inch slight, second-hand knovri- edge .as "could be gleaned from jhe " " published discussion -thereof; but be ' lieve that congress has decided wisely. " It looks reasonable that a sea-level - canal, once constructed, would be far preferable and more valuable, but its "cost wouhTrun uplo several hundred , millions, and it might talce a quarter ; of a century "to. build it,"while it is al- ' leged that the lock canal can, be com pleted in about eight year,' aindiwit h - 7 in somewhere near the estimates. The cost,- for such a very "great - and enormously rich country as this, is not a matter of prime importance", TrovidiBgthe" sea-levercanal "would .' be vejry much better, but the element of time a difference of ten to fifteen - years is. a matter of great conse quence. '... " Eminent, JSDgmeers declare that th lock canal is not only entirely feasible but is not greatly Inferior, "taking inteV-oceah traffic into consideration, nrFsel-levercanaTriirJTf this be the -...f.a.e the. decision ife-wise. I f) courfe there will le many who 7 will criticise and attack and accuse, "but, we'beliieve" that congress and the ssident have dniie the best lh atI75oi could be done in this "natter. GOSPEL OF GOOD CHEER. I N HIS SALUTATORY in his new paper, the Optimist, Mr A. . Bennett, after some explanation of hi position, says: "I will always endeavor to look for the "good and eschew the evil to live in the sun shine and forget the shadows, I am just, a plodding country editor who Vs the fruits and flowers along life's pstWty and tries to show them to "othV -j .". . '.;(.; ' This is a good platform for, the "country editor," and th,city editor as well, to stand on, a good rule to work by. Not all editors, nor many art constitute! to carry out this pol icy and program so successfully and unaffectedly as Mr. Bennett, who has "sunshine in his souL" yet all of them could work along this line somewhat more than they do. None of them can scare up a "Kabbitville" corre spondent, .but most of them could brighten up their papers a little, ajd make more ' of life's good . and less of its evil, and so cheer and encourage their readers. , ,....
