Says the Lafayette Journal: — “There is more in Democracy than the matter of ratios. Democrats are agreed that silver should be recognized as a m >ney metal and circulated in the most liberal quantities cousistant with financial prudence. It is only when the ratios of coiuage are considered that differences arise. The Journal does not abate a particle of its opposi* tion to free coinage at 16 to 1, but it does not believe that because Democrats disagzeeor this propo* sition that contro of government should be turned over to the lie* publican party. It is persuaded that the success of the Republican candidate would be a pubiic calamity, and it does not believe that any Democrat should contribute te That is an easy one. Hobart, recently nominated at St. Lcuis for the vice-presidency, is at the hoad of the East Jersey water company, a Wall*st. concern that has a monopoly of the water sup* ply in the cities of eastern New 3 ersev. He is also one of the “arbitrators” —at a fiftystbousanddollar salary, it is said—of thena tional railway pool, a law-defying combination. He has a “barrel,” which he is expected te tap freely. That and liis ability to deliver nine* teen of New Jersey’s twenty votes in the convention to McKinley were the considerations that induced his Domination.

SUMMER IN GREENLAND. It Is a Time of Bright Flowers, Sunshine and Butterflies. Writing of summer in Greenland, a country we generally associate with ’extreme cold, Prof. Angelo Heilprin says: “Once the foot has been set on the mirrored rocks, the charms of this garden spot one by one unfold themselves. The little patches of green are aglow with bright flowers, rich in the colors which a bounteous nature has provided. The botanical eye readily distinguished among these the mountain pink, the dwarf rhododendron, several pieces of heath, the crow-foot, chlckweed and poppy, with their varying tints of red, white and yellow. Gay butterflies flit through the warm sunshine, casting their shadows over forests of diminutive birch and willow. “Here and there a stray bee hums in search of sweets among the pollen grains, while, from afar, woven through the music of gurgling rills and brooks, come the melodious strains of thousands of mosquitoes, who ever cheerfully lend their aid to give voice to the landscape. “Above this peaceful scene tower the dark red cliffs of basalt, which form a height of 2,000 feet, and look down on a sea of Mediterranean loveliness, blue as the waters of Vlllafranca, and calm as the surface of an Interior lake. Over its bosom float hundreds of icebergs, the output of the great Jacobshavn glacier, fifty miles to the eastward, scatteted like flocks of white sheep in the pasture.”
