It is all right for the artists to call
tis barbarians. When they see a fine
looking, wide spreading tree, they go
to work and daub different colored
paints on a piece of cloth in an en
deavor to "lay over'' the work of
nature; Jwhile the barbarian builds a
sawmill, chops down the tree and
turns it into shingles enongh to spank
10,000 schoolboys. The artUt cannot

Hence these tears.

served by Representatives of Congress
in a disgraceful way. If Democratic
Representatives are not willing to

A correspondent of the London

Whatever action the Senate Finance
Committee may take in regard to
other ao-called "raw material," it
seems certain that American wool
growers will be left absolutely with
out protection Any movement for
freedom of raw materials which
should be founded upon considera
tions of the public interest woald
snail the wocl duties last of all in
stead of first of all. Wool is just as
much an essential of existence in this
country as f ual or iron. It is an ab
solute requirement of the whole body
of the people in times of peace and
war; and it ii as much an indispcnsi
ble munition ot war as gunpowder.
Xo well governed natiou could cou-
seut to make itself dependent for
such an article upon foreign nations
if the material could be produced
from domestic resources. Hostile

Were the mines shut down com-!
pletcly for a long series of years the
coal and the ore would remain in
stantly available lor uo when reasnn
once more should coatrol the action
of tha government, lu such a rae
coal could be made ready for use
within the space of a few hours, and
iron ore could be placed in the fjr
nace within an equally brief period
of time. But flocks f alicep once
exterminated, as they are now being
exterminated, are gone forever.
Under the most lavor-ble condition,

to permit an individual farmer to
make a fair beginning of the busi
ness. A decade of years would hard
ly avail to restore the industry from
its fouudation to anything like its
present . proportions. Thu it U a
peculiar iniquity of destruetivsness
which singles out this particular busi

cused upon no pretext that the duties

Tsio Cns aiirardonai Way.
Formerly it was the custom iu Cape
Girardeau for the city to furnish
dressed curbing for the sidewalks on
petition of the property owners. The
law is now changed and property
owners most furnish their own curb
ing aud build their own sidewalks.
But some of the prominent citizens
of that little burg do not take kindiy
to the change. Some two or three
mouths ago Major J. It. Dennis, apt
pearcd before the city council aud
asked the city to furnish and sc
curbing along bis property ou Mer-
riwetber street. A motion was made
to grant his request but it was voted
down as contrary tn law. But Coun
cilman Thomas Powers was a neigh
bor of Major Dennis and owned
property adjacent to that of the
major. Mr. Powers Was also chair
man of the street and wharfage com
mittee of the council. In violation of
fbc law be ordered the street com
missioner to get out and set the curb
ing opposite the procrty of Major
Dennis and also opposite his own na-
jacent property. By aud by a very
innocent looking bill was presented
to the council for getting out and set-
ting curbing. Ben Adams, editor of
the Democrat of that eit is a member
of the council. He was saucy cuough
to ask where ibat curbing bad been
set. The answer of course gave the
whole thing away.
But the bill was allowed by the
council, two members voting against
it. The nest day an article appeared
in the Demorrat severely criticising
the action of the council for allowing
the bill.
Mr. Powers was offended by the
article and at toe neat council meet
ing determined to lick the editor ot
the Democrat. He asked permission
to say a few words and then launched
forth in a lout stream of abuse and
pTolaBity. He demanded that the
editor make an explanation. The ex
planation was made and Mr. Powers
then sailed in on muscle. Just how
the combat ended we do not know
but we see that Editor Adams is able
to pour in Lot shot to his heart's con
tent through the columns of his
papers Cairo Citizen.

Two gentlemen met in a restaurant
the other dny. One was apparently
in something of a hurry, for he oo
catioually lnkc-l at ms watch and
f.tuced about uneasily as be listened
I to whatever , the other was saying.
The other, however, was very much
interested in whit he was saying and
found it im.unveuient to leave off.
He had acbeived that peculiar stage
where the tongue wags without per
reptible effoit and time is no object.
His friend was a mighty good listener
and nodded his head now and then
rather perfunctorily to indicate that
he was still in the ring. The attend
ants winked at each olher and watch
ed the pair. At the nd of an hour
the talkative man was apparently as
fresh as cvrr he was, while the listen
er began to exhibit signs of puishmcnt.
Then a barkeeper went over aud
asked them what they'd have. The
talker paused long enough to say
'Whiskv," and proceeded with the
one-sided conversation.
-What kind of wliiskvl" asked the
bar-keeper -fighliu' or lalkiu
