Jay (ion.Dit is said is using hi"
utmost endeavors to procure and
destroy every ropy of a small his
tory of "1-elawatre county," which
lie wrote in the early davs before
he became a millionaire railroad
magnate. It those early halcyon
days he wa9 indiscret t enough to
make some natural remarks Uon
the bad effect of monopolies. I
which he now nants blotted out
of existence, I! should make a
simple study of the old aphorism
"truth crushed lo earth will ris
again." and remember that he
i-annat wipe out the truth of th-
words he then uttered any man
than he can make all of his theories
and schemes bear even the semb
lance of right and justice.
The good fortune of i-ossessin;:
so energetic a representative of In
United states government at Con
stantinople, as Minister Hirscn was
strikingly demonstrated by the
remarkable rapidity with which
the . Ottoman authorities set a!
liberty a naturalized American
eitieu, w ho had been arrested ami i
' thrown into jail on the suspicion !
- i . ... t
.of. being connected witii sotm
Armenian conspiracy against the
Sultan. According to our dis
patches, the o;dy grounds f.r
this charge were that the Ameri
can citizen in question had ordered
' for his personal use a watch-seal
engraved with the sword and
crown of the Knights Templar anl
with a motto in Armenian.
Thk improvement in the char
acter of the immigrants, w ho ai .
rived at Nevt Yo-k in November,
according to the Tribune, cannot
'.fail to give satisfaction to all light
.thinking men, and they would lc
-glad to think that it w;w not the
'result of merely accidental force h
The country in coming to believe
more and more thatquality should
receive greater consideration in
the question of immigration than
. has been given to it. No i lan to
restrict immigration ami improve
" the character of immigrants hits
" yet received the approval of con
gress, but the matter i one that
demands the most serious consid
eration. Its solution cannot be
long delyd.
Use of t le most noticeable events
that will transpire, in consequence
of the death of millionaire August
Belmont, will le the public salct.f
the famous horses that the enthu
siaslic turfman had gatheied into
his stable of valuable horses.
. When horses arrive at the enor
;iiiqus value, of $.50,000 they in a
- measnre become national or world
wide in reputation, and the chance
for their p)saession is scrambled
for by the big millionaires, with
all of the avidity with w hich the
small boy iwed to pitc i into the
scramble for pennies thrown iicn
the ground.
A PEct'i.iAR example of the old
adage that luurdfr will on "
happened in a Kentucky criminal
' 'court this week. A man who, over
twenty-ears of age, killed four
negroes in that state, immediately
alter the war when the heat and
passion of that conflict condoned
many such acts, has finally been
brought to trial ami condemned
to the penitentiary for life for com
mitting the deed. Justice was
long drawn out in the c.-e. but it
- came all the same.
There is a question in the mind
of the strictly independent voteis
. of the country whether to run
- tiixie to ascribe the financial lis-
tress in the Eist aud attending
high prices to tho McKinley bill,
or to the wonderful democratic
majorities in the recent elections.
Hue would be about as sensible as
the other.
I oi hi insulting comment on liw
as it is administered iti Texan, Jut
one )int whn Ii he makes it- :i
goml one. This is tli:it tending
official iiisiITMl ii of Ills cac
Texas authorities had iioinoial
right to make the matter public.
To give the facl.s to tin newspapers
lieiore t It- r"ii.-ul was ael'iallj re
called was a breach of faitli for
which then; in no excuse.
Tiik i lire lard hills ami other
moaMire.s which are ln-fore con
gress should In come laws, and the
gmiihliiiK in futuies in the jirain
markets of the world should he mj
stringently unlawful, that Mich
practice should ho entirely
driven out of existence. What
ever pertains to the food oi the
people and the produce of the
country should be securely
gjarded against all chance of
fraud.
The Farmers' Alliance, while
its original intentions were no
doubt praiseworthy enough, has
'alien into the hands of dema
gogues, and its usefulness, if it had
any, is a thing of the past. Its
star having already reached it
zenith will shortly decline and be
seen no more.
The position taken by the Catho
lic e.ergy in Ireland, upon the Par
nell iieslioii seems likely to drive
into existence a religio-political
phase of the subject, to a much
greater extent than has hdretofore
existed.
Somk wag recently started the
story that .Mrs. Stanloy is ab:iut
to write a book entitled "Mow 1
Found Stanley," and she is receiv
ing letters liom people who tiiink
it is true.
