Editor and Proprietor, PETERSBURG. : : INDIANA. f ■■ - ■ J '■=•■=»• THE SLOOP CUP. 1 By BALDWIN SPARS IT WAS only two dsys before the Bay head regatta, and up to three <w clock, Thursday afternoon, the one rival. to Dave Garrison's “Fleetwing,” that everyone wanted to see, had not yet registered at the yacht dub. Naturally the bunch of fellows lounging on the pier head Friday morning and lazily criticising the regatta fleet as it swung at anchor, burst into interested comment as a long slam boat slid past them down the harbor and stood out before the heavy wind under full canvas. “Hello! that's Thorne’s boat now, isn't it?'* exclaimed Joe Scott, dropping from his seat on the rail and hurrying over to the other side of the pier, with the boys "St his heels. “Yes, there’s her name. "Conqueror.* She must have come in last night. I didn't know her at first; look at the big topsail he’s got on her." “She’s been made over for this race. I tell you, it’ll take hot work for even the ‘Fleetwing’ to beat her now.” “I wonder what Dnve’ll fay when he hears that his beloved rival is here?” “Here comes Dave now.” “Whoop! Hello! Heard the news?” roared the half dozen voices that had been disputing as a white hat came slowly down the wharf. “What’s the row?” asked the newcomer. calmly taking a seat on the rail beside Joe. “Anything fatal happened | in the last ten minutes?” “Thorne’s here with a new set of sails on the ‘Conqueror,’ ” blurted out Joe, who never could keep anything long. ‘Thorne!” interrupted Dave, a black look on his good-natured face. “So he’s come, after all.” “Hasn’t he. though; it will take your prettielt sailing to show him your

•tern. “If I decide to race him,** answered Dare, slowly, watching the boat as It dwindled oceanward. “Nonsense, Davie!” “The idea, old fellow.” “Goodness sake, man, you wouldn’t drop out for that.” argued everyone at once, while Joe, who was Dave's particular chum, and dared anything. added: “Then you’ll let Thorne take the cup? Your two are the fastest boats in the class.” Ever since the two had been old enough to have boats, there had been a rivalry growing up between them, slowly changing their friendship to enmity, and ending the year before in accusation and open distrust. “I*d rather have him take the cup than think I wanted it bad enough to race him for it.” said Dave, shortly. “Oh, fudge. then he’ll think you’re •fraid of him,” laughed Joe, throwing his arm over Dave's shoulder. “What you want to do is to go in and beat him clean out of his boots; take a little more ballast if it’s too windy and show .him the way home." “Maybe," answered the other, u faraway look in his quiet blue eyes. “I suppose it is the only faiir thing to do,” he said to himself as he walked home. “Better race and have it over. 1 only hope this wind will shift before to-mor-row.” And he glanced toward the northwest, whence a merry gale piped along. For with all her virtues the “Fleetwing” could not make time in a stiff breeze. She could beat anything in a light southwester with Dave at the helm, for no man could sail a boat as craftily as he. Sidney Thorne knew Dave's skill and the “Fleetwing's” powers, too, and be hoped as earnestly for a “reefing gale” as Dave prayed for a cstspaw breeze, with better luck, unhappily for Dave. “I’m afraid we’re going to get more of this,” said Joe Scott, anxiously, as he stood on the “Fleetwing’s” deck Saturday morning and felt the puffy north wind that rolled the little aloop heavily in the trough of the waves. “It will be dirty work getting round the ‘pudding stone reef* in this choppy

•ea. “If we can make the first leg on this breexe. I’ll bave the wind! behind me on the next, and It’* only a short beat j home from the second buoy.** answered j Dare, with a sort of nervous quietness, j ’•Hurry up there. Joe. I never saw you j take so long.” Dave was in a fighting mood. Re ' felt his boat tugging to get away, and I he saw the Conqueror wiggling along j behind him as Thorne tried to get to windward at the starting. “Joe.” he •ordered quickly, ‘Tm going to gybe up on the windward of Thorne; be ready with the sheet. You fellows bal- j last her now. All ready. It’a going to be close sailing all the way.” he said to himself, as one after another the boats slid over the line. Conqueror and Fleetwing side by side. Closer sailng than he thought even. In spite of the Fleetw ing’s promising at art and the master hand on her wheel, the lee rail sank under water and the white sails, swelling like a swan’s breast, strained in vain to keep j ahead of the blackballed boat that was using all the wind its sails could Hud. «, They were all silent as-the bigger boat tore along before them, the sea anering heavily under her prow like the deep laugh of a sea creature. It would mean so much to win that race. Both boys felt that more deluded on It than they had thought—whoever won the cup won something else with It. And somehow Dave •xmldn’t help feeling that Thorne would do anything anther than be defeated. “Just see If

he doesn't do something queer before this is over,** he thought, ns he swept on over the rolling, windy sen. “Just wait, though, until I get around that first buoy with the wind behind me. I’ve a chance yet, and it’s changing to the east already.** , Poor Dave! not a great chance. Even after they had started on that long second leg, where he had trusted to do so much, luck was against him. The northeast wind was as fierce as ever, and still the “Conqueror” gained. Dave would not look at her. He stared fierce* ly at the great curving sails above him, swollen and stiff with wind, the mast creaking and straining as the lit* tie vessel staggered bravely on under her heavy load. Dave's nails were white with the grip of his hands on the wheel. And the “Conqueror’s” tiller never wavered in Thome’s hard grasp. His eye on the luff of the sail, his breath coming short and hard, every thought hurled forward with his flying boat, he was making up for the failure of last year—he would win this one beyond doubt or disbelief. Already the tide in the “pudding stones” was shouting victory in his ears. He laughed to it, and a voice came crying back. Thorne looked around. He wondered if any of the other boys had heard it. Again that faint call came to Thorna like the voice in the ripple of the water. He bent and looked under the boom. Something was dancing toward' the fatal current round the “pudding stones.” Dancing like a thoughtless child. A wave lifted it nearer. It was a skiff and a bit of white stuff fluttered from the bow. Well, many boats came out to sea; why should Thome notice this. Yea,

A PAINT CRT CAME TO THE THORNB. many boats came—but not so far—not skiffs—not with something white flying from the prow in terrified signal of distress—surely not with frightened cries for help—for ‘Tnamma” and “papa.” But why Should Thorne stop to help. Dave was close behind him. so close that if he changed his course now enough to rescue the little skiff, he would be too late by the time he had come back and rounded the “pudding stone” buoy on the starboard side. Dave would have passed him. A wave tossed the little praft on its crest—another, and another, each wave nearer to the whirl of water over the rocks. Thorne could see the spindle on the crag standing like a warning figure. It was time to tack out around it and start on the last leg home. Again came that frightened, sobbing cry, so hopeless and so lost. Thorne looked at his crew. “Isay, Thorne, the Fleetwing seema to be gaining,” called little Harley. “We can’t be losing now, eh?” Thorne’s hand trembled on the wheel. The rudder swayed. Slowly the shadow of the sail swung round over its captain. With a cry of amazement the boys flung themselves into the lockpit. “What on earth, Thorne; there’s the buoy on the port hand—” Thorne nodded to the drifting boat, already circling in the edge of the whirlpool. “Get the boat hook, Harley, quick. Ease her off. Bob; there she comes, now then, that’s it. There’s no hurry, Harley, we can’t win. Thank God, we ■aw them in time.” “Never mind, then, they’ll find out who’s won,” he added, quietly, as a long faint shout from the baffled Fleetwing warned them that their coursa was seen.

For as Jo* eased the sheets to go about he saw ihe Conqueror headed home, but with the pudding stone spindle on the wrong side, and he said in a puszled way: “Do look at Thorne, will you; isn’t he inside the mark?” “By Jove, so he is.” shouted Joe, angrily. Call him. boys, let him know we’re seen him cheating.” “Never mind, never mind.” cried Dave, “wait till we get home, the cheat. We’ll settle with him then.” Dave’s heart swelled ss he saw the hated black hull, its huge canvas taut, ripping through the rough sea as though it cared not a stroke for honor. "Coward!” groaned Dave. The angry blood flooded his cheeks and shook his voice as he touched the pier. For even his father and mother were there. holdingThorne’shands and laughing ecstatically. And his two little sisters all wet and tumbled laughing in his mother’s arms. Dave could hardly wait to touch the dock, but sprang ashore. “Father, mother, do you know what he did—” “Oh. Dave, did you see it. too; how can we ever thank him? If it had not been for him. if he had not been there just at that moment. Dick says that he and Mary would have been drowned. Oh, I can’t think of it; such a narrow escape. And Mr. Thorne lost the race, too. It was too late to go back then." As Dave understood he held out his hand. “You’ve won the cup,” he said, swiftly. “Thorne. I'm mighty glad, old fellow” “Not I,” laughed Thorne; “it’syours, of course.” So that is why therv are two names on the sloop cup, instead of one, and why it stands on the mantel in the club house; its proudest trophy.—N. Y, Ledger. ’* %

THE CHICAGO PLATFORM. Democrats Will Keep Lp the fifM Atalait Plstoerwr ui Corrapttom. The idea has been advanced that by “pairing with the republicans in questions arising out of the war,” democrats can then change the subject and talk of something else. The absurdity of expecting democrats to pair with republicans on issues involving the declaration of independence and the decalogue Is self-evident. The plutocracy which now controls the republican party is radically opposed, even in peace, to the Ten Commandments and to the principle that all just government rests on the consent of the governed. And still more radically is it opposed to them in all issues involved in the use of the war power. Plutocratic republicanism stands for the greatest possible coercion in the exercise of governmental powers. Democracy stands for the least possible. Democrats believe in a resort to force only at the last extremity, and then only to prevent oppression. William J. Bryan defined democratic principle admirably when he said, at Omaha: “Until the right has triumphed in every land, and love reigns in every heart, government must, as a last resort, appeal to force. As long as the oppressor is deaf to the voice of reason, so long must the citizen accustom his shoulder to the musket and his-hand to the saber.”

Plutocratic republicanism involves force, not as “a last resort,” but immediately whenever fraud fails to accomplish its purposes of oppression. Between these ideas there can be no “pairing” and no compromise. They are in opposition to each other so radically that their conflict from the beginning of civilization until now has bathed the world in the blood of the ma>tyrs of liberty who have died rejoicing to be able to die in behalf of the glorious truth that the best possible government depends on the least possible force. That is the fundamental truth of democracy. The man who abjures it, abjures democracy with it. He opposes himself to liberty, to good government, to the possibilities of progress. He also abjures common sense. The republican party has only one hope of holding the country, and that lies in keeping “war issues” at the froat and in so sustaining the war excitement asto prevent plutocratic corruption and oppression of being exposed. The day before ths war was declared, the democratic party and its populist and silver republican allies had probably not less than a threefourth* majority of the congressional districts. They have now so many as democrats can carry by the most aggressive opposition to plutocracy at all points, whether in civil or in military affairs. And since plutocracy is most dangerous when in control of the military power, it needs especially to be opposed at that point if democracy is to win. Such leaders as Mr. Bryan, Mr. ?!and, Hon. J. K. Jones, chairman of ! the democratic national committee, and Mr. Altgeld, of. Illinois, have .thought on this subject with calm disinterestedness and have spoken on it with due sobriety. The power of the principle* of the Chicago platform is greater than that of money or of armies. The democracy they represent is the great inspiring force which moves men forward, giving them heart for self-sacrifice and courage for self-devotion. "With that power impelling them, with that strength animating them, democrats will move to the attack on plutocracy, never stopping until they are in possession of its intrenchments.

FOR SUFFERING SOLDIERS. 4 Duty That Democrat* Owe tu the Dure Defenders. of Our Country’s Honor. When congress meets there will be au Investigation as to the conduct of I the war. If the republicans succeed in retaining a majority in the house I the result of that investigation will • be simply a whitewashing of Alger and I ell the rest of the ilcompetent and j venal officials appointed by the republican administration. There have been I many corrupt bargains, great inca- | pacity and innumerable blunders during the short campaign against the 1 Spaniards. These matters should aot be hushed up. Soldiers who have been starved by robber commissaries, neglected by incompetent officers, murdered by lack of proper medical attent*on, should be remembered by congress, and the men who caused all this needless suffering should be severely punished. But if the republicans remain in power the congressional investigation will prove a farce. For this reason democrats should labor; strenuously to. return their candidates' to the house of representatives. This is a duty the party owes to the sol-* diers. The war was brought about largely through democratic influences, but the injuries to soldiers have all proceeded from republican administration. Soldiers who have suffered will hesitate to bring their cases before a republican congress; therefore, in behalf of these brave defenders of the flag, democrats should work zealously for success.—Chicago Dispatch. ——It is a good-thing that the supply of Ohio statesmen is inexhaustible. John Hay. of Ohio, is to succeed Judge Day, of Ohio, as secretary of state, that Judge Day, of Ohio, may take a place on the peace commission andafterward a United States judgeship. Whitelaw Reid, of Ohio, is likely to succeed John Hay, of Ohio, as minister to England. Any Ohio men unprovided for will please send on their papers.— Pittsburgh Post. -No criticism of the conduct of tfes war department is coming from the army contractors. Secretary Alger has a few supporters left.—Springfield (Mass.) Republican.

OUTRAGEOUS AND UNJUST. He Dlislev War Tax Measure la mm Bad aa Hla TarlUt Iniquity. From his stronghold in Maine Mr. Congressman Dingley gives out the utterance that Mthe war taxes, some of them, will probably be permanent.** The “probably* is well put in. Be-, yond any reasonable doubt Mr. Dingley speaks for the republican party. Continue it in legislative power, and the war tax * that came so conveniently to the aid of the treasury, covering up thi failure of the Dingley tariff measur > as a revenue producer, wftl be continued. The people »f the United States, who have to pay war taxes and all other demands of g wernment, arc yet to be heard from. 3 Presumably they will n ot care to pay wt.r taxes in time of peace, and they will it mnt statesmen at Washington who w 11 readjust the burdens of taxation sc that they may fall with something of. evenness upon the wealth of the United State* Mr. Dingley vill be retained because in his drastic tariff measure, which fell heavily upon all ofher citizens of the United Sta tes, he discriminated in favor of his d strict. See Section 20 of his aet, pro riding that the produce of the forests of the state of Maine upon the St. John river and its tributaries owned by the American citizens and sawed and hewed in the province of New Brunswick by American citizens, the same being otherwise manufactured in whole or in part.

which is now admitted into the ports of the United States free of duty* shall continue to be so admitted. Hr. Dingier took care to abandon in behalf of his own constituents a restrictive policy, whereas he made certain that the restrictions should operate against every other constituency I in the ^United States. Mr. Dingley’s tariff measure was an outrageous injustice. Bis subsequent war taxation measure is extremely venations, and borne only because the needs of war proseouted by the United States demanded the cheerful acquiescence of the people of the United States, but now that the war is at an end it is the duty of the people in their own interests to take care that there shall go to congress representatives who, lifting in part the burden of taxation, custom house or other, will so rearrange the whole scheme of federal taxation as to make its enactions fall as well upon the great accumulations of wealth in the country as upon the slender savings of him who labors with his hands. THIS IS REPUBLICANISM. The President Is Leokiss After the Interests of Enarlnnd In This Country. In America the opinion was definitely reached that Amasa Stone’s millions had more to do with his selection by Mr. McKinley of John Hay as secretary of state than any other factor. We have from England an altogether different view. The London Times says, in speaking of Mr. Hay’s recall from England:" “We must console ourselves with the reflection that the foreign affairs of the United States are in the hands of a man who has learned from actual observation what are the necessities of the foreign policy of England.” No formal alliance, offensive or defensive, has been struck up between England and the United States. That wbuld require a treaty which the president would be obliged to submit to the senate of the United States, and tba president might well hesitate to frther such esteem lest his popularity suffer among the people of the United States, who are not ripe for any such alliance. But we may gather from London that apolicy which will not be declared openly or formally will be given operation by an indirection. Mr. McKinley selects for the head of the department of state in the United States a man who has learned from actual observation what are the necessities not of the United States but of the foreign policy of England. . We may reasonably suppose that it is the English view that Mr. Hay goes into the cabinet of Mr. McKinley as England’s particular representative.
