General Logan in Ctvil Life. ‘The demonstration at Chicago yesterday ‘was in honor of the memory of the most famous volunteer soldier of the civil war. He developed a genius for arms almost iramediately after enlisting, and he proved so effective as an organizer and a fighter that at the close of the four years’ strug- gle he held a firm place in the hearts of the people among the most illustrious of the Union commanders. His fame as a soldier is secure. But John A. Logan served the country” well in civil as well gs in m And he showed as much grit in one the other. He had distinguished himself in civil life before the war began. He was one of those ardent and aggressive young democrats who trained under the banners ef Stepher A. Douglass, and all but wor- shipped the Lite Giant. Mr. Logaa, in| fact, was a protege of Mr. Douglass; was elected to Congres and coming from Hii the House as Mr. Doug’ there. His whole soul, of course, was en- listed in the effort to meke Mr. Douglass President, and in the campaign of 1560 he worked for his friend and leader wit uring devotion. But Mr. Lincoln was elected, and the choice was soon presented between standing for the Union or against it. Mr. Logan, like Mr. Douglass, cast his lot with the Union. The Douglass element in the South gave its support to secession, and in the North it was, in spots, rather lukewarm. But Mr. Logan was among the nerthern friends of the Little Giant who saw that Mr. Lincoln, although a republi- | can and a lifelong foe of democracy, must be sustained. The life of the nation was at stake, and that consideration subordinated for the time all questions of minor moment. To help sustain the country was, in his opinion, the one overshadowing duty of the hour. So he went into the Union army, and helped fight the war for the preser: tion of the Union. Mr. Logan emerged from the war as General Logan, and a figure of national Prominence and influence. Naturally he returned to the field of politics. But not as a democrat. While in some of the merthern states the democratic party had advocated the prosecution of the war for the Union, and in Corgress had véted sup- Plies to the Union cause, yet, at the close of the war, party divisions raa, in the main, so as to give the republicans their strength in Union strongholds and the democrats their strength in former con- federate strongholds. General Logan, therefore, became a republican. He con- sidered that the best agency for preserving the fruits of what had been saved and won by the war was the political agency which had prosecuted the war to a suc- ce:sful termination. Anfi as a republican, he Kept the whole country always in mind, speaking and voting for those policies which seemed to him to be conceived in a spirit of nattonal development and indus- trial progress. Is not this a career which the gold demo- crats of this day way study to advantage? They have left their party to assist in pre- serving the credit of the country. Can they a'ford to return to it as long as that cre s menaced? The logi@of the situa- tion in that their proper place is with ¢ which is the country’s main- stay against inflation and financi+l ruin. —— ¢ 2 Silver, Wheat and Prosperity.

Prof. Andrews, who has just resigned the presidency of Brown University, Rhode Island, is not, as he considers himself, a victim of Intolerance. He has not suffered because of his free speech. He had, and Fas, a perfect right to his free silver views, and to express them. The trouble was that as presideat of Brown University he as an individual was not, and could not be, disassociated from that very responsible of- fice. It was as the president of a leading university situated in the heart of New England that he has commanded national attention as a free silver advocate. It was in that capacity he figured in the free silver press, and enjoyed the eulogiums of the free silver orators. “See,” Bryanites were saying, “how the cause of silver is growing! The president of Brown Uni- versity, walled in with New England gold, is with us.” It is but fair to believe that Prof. An- drews had no thought or intention of- in- volving the seat of learning over which he was presiding. He was speaking as Prof. Andrews, and intending that his deliver- ances should bé so accredited and accepted, while, as a matter of fact, Pro’. Andrews was wholly unknown in the controversy. I: was the president of Brown University who was loading so many shells for the Bryanites, and whose labors were so much appreciated in the Bryan camp. Let this case be supposed: Transfer, in fancy, Brown University to Colorado, and change the coat of Prof. Andrews from silver to gold. Imagine him preaching the gold standard out there as vigorously as he bas been preaching free silver in Rhode Island. Imegine the sound money prass @nd the sound money orators saying in a note of triumph: “See how the cause. of sound money is growing! The president of Brown University, walled in with Colorado éllver, fs with us." How would the silver men of the west, contributing to the sup- port of Brown University, like that? How long would they stand it? They would in- sist, ag the men of New England have dore, that Brown Untversity must not be- come @ factor in partisan controversies: that it must remain, es intended, an edu- 4 ' the “rectification” of cational center, and in Colorado, in such circumstances, Prof. Andrews would be requested to resign his office as president of the university. And he would do so. The right of free speech is not in the slightest degree involved in this matter. Nor will Prof. Andrews suffer in the slight- est by reason of severing his conneotion with Brown University. He is now in po- sition to become more actively than ever a champion of free silver, if his fancy leads him to go in more actively for agitation. In the silver camp he will be hailed as a mar- tyr, and in popular assemblies will arouse enthusiasm second in heartiness only to that awakened by Mr. Bryan himself. But he will be counted henceforth at his in- dividual value. What he shall do for the cause will go to the credit of Prof. An- drews, an able and altogether sincere men. Brown University becomes divorced from the silver propaganda, and resumes the exercise of its proper influence as a seat of non-partisan learning. Both Prof. An- drews and the university are to be con- «tatulated on the step that has been taken. —___ 0 +____ A Tremendous Jingo. An anonymous Englishman, doubtless inflamed by the recent jubilee cerémontes into an exaggerated conception of the re- laticns of Great Britain to the rest of the werld, has written to the London Daily Mail a letter that amacks of the very es- sence of British acqutsitiveness. He fore- casts war as the inevitab'e result of Mr. Sberman’s note on the seal question, and, assrming, of course, that England would win in suca a struggle, he outlines the fruits of the victory that Great Britain sheuld demand and receive. t of all, the Canadian boun- dary. To the American mind, whose no- tion of the matter is based on the best principles of geography, an act would nean the transfer to the United States of that portion of Canada lying south of the St. Lawrence river and bay. These form the natursl bourdary between the coun- tries. The present line is arbitrary and, acccrding to some readings of history, inaccurate to the detriment of the United States. The indignant Lritisher's plan would sive to Canada all of Maine, New Hempehire and Vermont and part of New York. It would “shorten the frontier sev- eral hundred miles and give Canada a sea- pert, Portland, which would be free to navigation all the year.’ This final phrase indicates that the lack of an unfrozen. port is troubling Canada as well as Russia. It has not of late appeared as a serious factor in the relations of the United States and England. The anonymous strategist goes on to wipe off 4 few more of thts country’s present and prospective properties by saying: “We ought also to ennex Alaska and the Sandwich Islands.” ‘These fulminations should be traced to their source, for it is important to know whether they are due to overdoses of pep- per sauce, curry or port wine, or are to be attributed to plain British greed, aggra- vated by a post-jubilee indigestion.” —_++2—____ Idle Convicts Going Insane. The law recently enacted in New York practically abolishing the employment of the convicts is already having bad effects. It was feared at the time the rule went into force that the idleness compelled by the statute would work harmfuliy among the prisoners, and at the outset there were signs of serious disturbances. The men be- came accustomed gradually to the new conditions, however, and the main danger of outbreaks against prison discipline passed over. But the lack of employment is now working its results in a different direction. Seven men in the Kings County Penitentiary have just been adjudged in- sane, as 2 direct consequence of the lack of occupation. The men suffer from various delusions, and are violent at times. One of these unfortunates believes that he is to be electrocuted, and begs constantly for. a respite. In addition to these cases there have been several attempts at suicide dur- ing the past few months, and the keepers have had to maintain the closest watch ever known in the history of the prisons in the state, to prevent such troubles. There is no guarantee that these seven cases of insanity will not be followed by many others, and if the mait continues the state will soon have a mosi serlous prob- lem on its hands. Under the law a small amount, of work around the prison can be done by the inmate: in the Kings County institution less than three hundred of the seven hundred prisoners can be kept cecupied at one time, and @ nature of the work some of the men h. no op- portunities to labor. The prisoners con- stantly beg for employment to relieve the tedium of their confinement. —>+2-—____ Edward Parker Deacon seems to have weighed the question carefully and con- cluded that there is no great cause for complaint on his part, as in weather like this he would prefer having ice on his head to being esteemed by a Newport board of governors. > ¢ = —_____ It seems very possible that Ambassador Hay will pay for the long immunity from public cares he has enjoyed by a very active carcer during this administration. ———_ ++ = —___ The Third-Rail System. Transportation managers throughout the country are closely’ watching the develop- ment of the “third-rail’ system of electric propulsion which now seems about to force “@ large number of locomotive engines on the market as second hand stock. This system has already been adopted by the Censolidated Roads, running into Connec- Uicut from New York, it is now in use on a Chicago elevated road, and is about to be tried on the New York elevated roads. It is acknowledged that in suburban service and on runs between near-distant citics the third-rail metor is more economical and efficient than the locomotive. The former is capable of developing Its limit of speed within & short space, whereas the steam engine, being built heavily to support the compound mechanism used, requires a much longer run before attaining its full speed. Thus when freqvent stops are re- quired by the schedule the electric motor is preferable. The elevated roads would seem to furnish an ideal field, therefore, for such a motive power, for on these roads the average run is less than a quarter of a mile. The steam locomotive, too, must cerry a heavy weight of coal and water to supply its needs, or else must stop often to replenish. This causes a serious drain on the power. It ts believed that on long tuns the locomotive can de better work than the electric motor, maintaining a high speed more steadily. This point, however, |. may be disproved in favor of the electric service on actual tests. 7 Of course there 1s nothing pecullar about the motor fed from the third rail as against any other form of electric power producer. The third rail is merely a device for conducting the electricity from the gen- erating plant to the moter itself. In-street railways this ts done elther by means of an over-head wire or by some form of underground device such as a conduit or by frequent contacts. The third rail is open to serious objection, however, in, that it places a deadly current within reach of persons. Thus it is far more dangerous even than the over-head system, in which the current is out of reach of ordinary traffic and be- comes a direct menace only when the wires break. Therefore it would seem that the only practical method of using this third- rail system is on an elevated line, where the tracks are visited only by workmen. Even this plan has already produced fatal results. In Chicago the Metropolitan ele- vated road introduced the system with mechanical and financial success but a workman engaged in repairing the tracks was killed, putting one foot on the current rail while his other touched one of the ordi- nary track rails. It would be safe to use this system on surface roads now operated by steam if the plan of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Road of absolutely abolishing all grade crossings, in city and country, were generally followed. This Hne runs now for nearly forty miles beyond New York be- tween either embankments of masonry or high spiked fences. There no point at which a person can cross the tracks on the level save by violating the law and over- coming a difficult obstacle. Thus on such a road the third-rail, with tts deadly cur- rent, would be out of reach of the unsus- Pecting victim. For one reason it is to be hoped that ‘the steam roads will be evolved into electric lines, fed in this way. It would probably result in the permanent inclosure of all tracks such as those of the road mentioned and thus while the com- panies would reap the benefit of greater dividends caused by a cheaper mode of transportation and fewer damage suits the Public would be relieved of the present dreadful menace of unprotected tracks. —_>+e___ The Louisviile baseball nine probably has an ambition to give the spectators their Money’s worth of excitement, regardless of the club's chances as the pennant-winner. —______ ——_++ Andree will hardly be go indifferent to Precedent as to conduct his polar trip in such a way as to dispense with the usual relief expeditions.

From the New York Herald. The condition of the crop as reported by the Government Bureau on the oth in: stant indicates a yield of thirty-two mil- lion bushels more than last year’s and about eight millions less than that of 1895. Raisers of wheat, then, are likely to have @ prosperous year, and producers of cotton have every promise of a good yield and remunerative prices. A suggestive fact in this connection, and one which cannot fail to impress the western farmer, is that while wheat has been enhancing in value silver has been falling. Compared with this date three years ago silver is lower, while wheat has risen nearly 50 per cent in value. Verbum sap. ——~2s____ The Gold Will Be Coming This Way. From the New York World.
