The Bemocrats in Congress seem to succeed in reducing almost everything connected with the government except the debt. The fine spring weather w£ have been having the past week has been in striking contrast to the demoralized condition of business in the country. If the latter is due to the democratic party, the former must r ‘suit from some more beneficent s mrce. One power could hardly produce two such unharmonious conditions. The country has now hud ayearof ( lev-eland's term. Nowhere is the contrast in the condition of affairs };• year ago and now, so great as in the gas belt. Then every factory v as running at full capacity every dwelling was the home of a happy family. Work was to be had in ab an dance at good wages. Now threefourths of the factories are closed, tnousands of men are idle, hotels corridors echo the occasional footfalls of the lonely guest, dwellings fee vacant. Where happiness and prosperity resigned a year ago. misery and idleness now sit enthroned, wll because of the uncertainty resulting front Congressional action, or rather, inaction. The passing of Gladstone from the English premiership last Saturday F of more than passing interest. For sixty years he has been the forern ist m in of 15 igland. He lias ever been on the alert against enemies both without and within and has done more than any man of this century to maintain England's high position among the nations. He retires with the respect of the world lor his political prowess, remarkably shown in recent light for Irish home rule. He has endeared himself to the common people by the refusal of a peership and by countless efforts in their behalf. To have produced such a grand old man as Gladstone is sufficient justification for the existence of the English nation. The Indianapolis News hits the nail on the head squarely when it says: Whatever the committee does, it ought to make haste. It has delayed :fcnd dallied too long already. The country wants same decision of the question. The party in power is pledged to tariff reform. If it is able to reform it, the country wants to know what the measure of reform is to be. If it is unable to reform it, the country wants to know the fact. Menu while many lines can not plan for tin 1 future: can not make purchases or increase production because of the uncertainty. The most urgent demand upon Congress is that it settle the tariff question promptly—wisely if it can, foolishly if it must. But settle it at all events. Thc/latc Geo. W. Childs was better known as an individual giver than perhaps any other man in the United States. It is no exaggeration to say that Mr, Childs for the last half of bis life, put more time, labor and pains into the work of giving than be did into making money. To many people he seemed to scatter his gifts i broadcast and bestow them indiscriminately. but his giving was not 1 without method. In the Review of Reviews for Mmrh Ids method of giving is appreciatively yet discriminatingly described by Talcotl Williams of the T’hiladelfihia Press. This article is illustrated with portraits Of Mr. Childs at different ages, and engravings of some of his most! notable gifts. The foot-ball team has raised money and purchased a foot-bail and are practicing every day.
