' No -question of Prendergaat'8 sanity
was ever raised until after hia murder of
Carter Harrison. If that is all that
there is to save his neck, he may as well
give it up. '
The historic Ivearsarge is gone forever.
Barbarians of San Andres Island have
relieved the U. S. government of the
.proposed expense in -raising her by in
considerately blowing it to atoms, after
rifling its decks ot everything moveable.
The effects of the storms in the east, it
seems, has played havoc generally with
the fruit crop. It may be a trifle selfish
to note that the market will be nil the
better for Oregon fruit, but we are both
willing and anxious for these people
who have been ' frozen out to engage in
fruit raising in Oregon, where drought
does not prevail nor storms rage, nor
blizzards blast.
Those few republicans who want
- f VJ uwu.uvuw . wu.u
. make a bad swap, no matter who it is.
The sejiatoc is today the ablest man'in
congress, and does Oregon great honor.
His speeches are masterly, and his tariff
arguments unanswerable. The latter
are taken as text by the American Pro
tective Tariff League. His long service
in the senate his prominence on certain
committees' and his tireless efforts for
Oregon make him today the most useful
citizen of the state, as he has been for
fioaany years. No other man can fill
Doljih's place. If his position does not
-suit some republicans on minor points,
rtfaey should remember that they might
vwprse, -
Populist Senator .Allen of Nebraska
' seems to take a. Hill-Brice-Gorman-White-Caffery
view of the tariff. Re--
plying to an Inquiry concerning his po
sition, Mr. Allen said : "lam not eay -ing
that I shall vote for the senate
report just as it comes from the finance
'committee. Nebraska is something of
a sugar state, as you know, andI am for
anything that will - benefit tkeir sugar
industry." That expresses the essence
of the tariff question. There is this dif
ference, .however, between the McKin
ley law and the" Wilson bill. The Mc
Kinley act offers fair and equal protec
tion to every industry and every section ;
the Wilson bill protects those industries
and those sections which present their
pleas with a shotgun.
Republicans have good reason to feel
encouraged over the tariff outlook in the
senate. The only thing that the repub
lican members of the senate finance
committee insisted upon in connection
with the reporting of the bill to the. sen
ate was that the debate should not be
gin until Monday 2d, and they carried
their point. The bill as reported is in
such an unsatisfactory shape that it can
not be passed by the senate until njate-
' rial changes are made.- This is admit'ted
even by those democrats who are most
anxious for it' to pa?s. That gives the
republicans a good fighting chance to de
feat the bill outright, and it will be
.wl 41. .-ll .. A
A democratic senator who desires the
bill .to pass remarked to another
senator : "If the remihlirnns mv ahranrd
..enough to vote solidly against striking
out the income tax they can defeat the
bill, as- .there are at least seven demo--crats
who will never vote for the bill
-with .that clause in it." There may be
s -something in that, but great commercial
-pressure-is being brought to bear upon
-republican senators for the purpose of
-getting them to vote to strike oat the in-
-conie tax. So far no binding agreement
Jbas been made by republican senators
as to how they shall vote, but it is prob
able that some sort of an arrangement
will be made to keep their 'votes to-
cfither.

GAVE THEM GOLD MINES.
Australia's Method of Caring' for
Her Unemployed.
An Experiment That Proved to Be
Great Success In Providing- for Poor
People Vho Were Entirely
Destitute.
An odd means of helping the unem
ployed was devised by the government
of Victoria during- last winter, when
trade was duller and distress more
acute and general than in very many
years past. It consisted, says a cor
respondent of the New York Sun, in
actually presenting gold mines to the
unemployed workmen. Not only this,
but transportation, to the mines was
furnished, and : also tools to work it
and provisions to last until it began to
pan out. There are scattered through
the colony auriferous gullies and
streams and old diggings that . have
been worked out, so far as adequate
commercial returns are concerned, but
which may yet be made to yield a liv
ing to any one who will seek hard for
it. The living is not good enough to
attract gold seekers in good times, but
at a time like the past winter, when
thousands of unemployed men, with
dependent and destitute families,
walked the streets of Melbourne, glad
to get even crusts and crumbs, such a
living as the old diggings afford was
one to be fought for. The reason why
men did not set out to obtain this liv
ing was; of course, because capital was
needed to reach the diggings and to
.work them. The department of mines
send Experts to the old mining regions
to ascertain where there would be
most likelihood of the. unemployed
workmen getting enough gold to afford
a living. Some regions that would
have yielded fair returns to experi
enced miners were unsuited for the en
deavors of the promiscuous workers,
willing but unskilled, who were sub
sisting an charity in Melbourne. To
To some of the better of these regions
parties of unemployed were sent in
charge of one or two experienced
miners. But many places were found
where unskilled men might get enough
gold from the creeks and rivers to af
ford what would be to them, under the
circumstances, a good living.
About three thousand men were sent
out by the government to these old
diggings during the winter - and ftnost
of them were accompanied by 'their
families. Free railway passes 'were
provided to the station nearest the
place where they were to prospect,
and, where possible, further transpor
tation was also furnished. . On arriv
ing at the diggings thirty shillings
were given to each man for the pur
Chase of provisions and supplies and
also a few simple tools. .Experienced
miners were . on band to show them
how to get to work, and remained in
the region so long as necessary.
Twenty to fifty and a hundred families
were located in some of the diggings.
Most of the districts selected for these
settlements were along streams and
here was generally found land suitable
for raising fruits and vegetables.. The
experiment proved a success. Almost
all the people thus sent out have been
making a fair living. Some have had
to work hard with little returns and
have needed assistance from the gov
ernment, but the great majority have
done really well. Some of the men
have made an average of ' from twenty
to thirty shillings a week all the time .
they have been at the diggings, which
was sufficient to maintain their fami
lies in comfortable circumstances. Few
there are who have not been able to
make at least a livelihood. Some re
turned to Melbourne and other cities
to take up their old lines of work, but
a great many are remaining at the dig
gings, satisfied with their present con
dition, and doubtless in -many cases
hoping to strike a rich patch.
The government also settled about
eighteen hundred men, most of them
with families, on government , land,
under the provisions of an act recently
passed for the formation of village
.settlements and homestead associa
tions and communities. Thirty-five
such settlements were plotted out and
unemployed men with their families
placed on . them, with the means of
commencing to ' obtain a livelihood
from the products of the' soil. The
plan of most o.f these settlements was
that of a cooperative company, and
great care was exercised to apportion
the unemployed among the thirty-five
settlements so that, their individual
capabilities might be of the best advan
tage for the common good. The plan
was something similar to that of the
Hirsch settlements of exiled Russian
Jews in Argentina. All these commu
nities are reported to be doing well,
and in but few instances have settlers
deserted them. The winter climate in
"Victoria is, of course, very mild, and
in July, the coldest month, it is a rare
thing for the temperature to fall to
freezing.
Employment was also found for some
fifteen hundred of Melbourne's unem
ployed during the winter by the de
partment of railways and the depart
ment of public works. Altogether,
though times were duller and distress
more general .and acute during last
winter than in .many years, it was in
no way so apparent on the surface as.
in much better years. There were few
processions of idle men through the
city streets and few demonstrations of
the unemployed, such as attracted uni
versal attention to Australia the pre
vious winter. . ...
. The Csar's Doable.'
The emperor of Russia had up to a
short time ago a double in the person
f a banker of the name of Carlsben in
Copenhagen. Carlsben was introduced
some time ago to the czar, who himself
remarked the extraordinary likeness.
This proved unfortunate , for the
banker, who henceforth drove in a car
riage and four, and was only too
pleased wtrn he was taken for the em
peror of all the Russias. As a result
Carlsben went insane - on the subject
and recently died in a madhouse in the
firm faith that he was the czar. .
A. Strange Friendship. .
. There is a peculiar case of infatua
tion between a rooster and two cats to
be witnessed at Alton, 111. They all
belong to the keeper of a, livery stable,
and for some time the rooster, which
is a large fowl of the Shanghai breed,
was afraid of the cats. But a friendly
feeling grew to 'exist between them
and this finally ripened into a case of
love. They are inseparable. The
rooster will conduct himself just as he
would if escorting . two hens about.
He will find a worm or grain of corn,
call the cats and then eat it himself as
naturally as though he had never asso
ciated with anything .-but cats.- The
felines, on the other hand, will follow
him around, roll over and play with
him, share their mice with him, and in
every possible way demonstrate that
his affection is reciprocated. The
rooster sleeps on ..the edge of a feed
box and the cats rest together in the
box. The strange friendship has ex
isted for some time past and exhibits
no signs of abatement.
