Park Row, cretary, people as a rule remained quiet, trusting to the majority in Congress to keep its pledges of reduction and equity. there were few public mass meetings to pratest against the wrong. Net ontil the evil had been done did the popular protest come. Then indeed it came not only with « roar but with a power that drove the champions of the measure out of office and many of them out of pablio life. Very different are the tactics of the High Protectionista, the ries of unjust taxation. They have already begun to protcet against evory step to be taken in the direction of reduced duties. The abominetions of the wool schedules are special objects of their care. $0 wo are to have mass mectings of farmers to advocate protection to sheep; masa mectings of consumers to dgmand home grown fnutton. Manogers of the big trusts will not show themselves at these fmectings, but they will work them up and pay the bills. Each measure designed for the good of the people will be denounced as @ wrong to the people. During the whole session devoted to tariff teform we shall have the tom-toms of plutocracy beating and the goad dervishes of protection howling and dancing to scare the timid and mislead the foolish. The big noise has already begun. es TREES: BOOKS AND GIRLS. SKED if he intends to confer a benefit on future generations by writing a memoir of his experiences with his own, Joseph Cannon replied he would not, adding: “Not one book in a thousand survives. It is a crime to cut down foresta to print so many. I have no particular book in mind. The books, like the girls of yesterday, have flown away.” Here is a new appraisement of the comparative values of books and trees. John Milton would have cut down a forest to print a book. He intimates in an oft-quoted passage that it would be as well to kill a man as kill a bopk, and he would have deemed Cannon’s doctrine about as bad as race suicide. Alfred de Musset, too, mourns in musical verse the sed order of nature that permits a tree to go on living after two lovers who have sat under its shade and vowed eternal love have passed to nothingness. The comparison of the passing of hooks to that of the girls of yesterday adds to the wanton melancholy of the erced. If hooks pass Jike girls, all the more need for more books as for more girls. We have many trees and many girls, and future generations will have many more; but we and they have only one chance for a Joseph Cannon autobiography. And, besides, as he has a four hundred acre farn, he might plant a few trees while writing. 4 THE MONEY MADNESS OF CRIME. MONG the victims of police extortion that have carried their testimony to District-Attorney Whitman is a gambler who reports that he had long been paying $75 a month to the graft collectors, but that of late they became more aggressive and more extortionate; or, as he put it, “money mad.” The madness came upon them after the revelations following the Rosenthal murder. This is not the only witness that has borne testimony to the fact stated. It may be taken as virtually proved that the first effect of the disclosures of the large sums collected by tie agents of Becker and of others like him has been that of exciting others to try and rival his offenses. Instead of running to cover, the extortioners @2 became bolder and more insistent than ever, It is not in any way overdoing rhetoric to call this outburst of grecd « “madness.” Coming as it does at a time when the public conscience is roused to indignation on the subject and when the watch is close and keen, it can hardly be accounted for on any other basis than that of some sort of insanity. It serves, too, to show how impossible it is for sane men to forecast the effect that any| given influence is going to have on the criminal mind. Tt was sup. | posed the fortune of Becker would be a warning. It has been an incentive. ( living, there has been an inc we rate among all elasses of the American people, whether home or foreign bern.

HE civil war had waged for the best part of a year. The South Bed won several notable victories. The North had not. The upkeep of the Federal armies was costing two million dollars a day. And there was little enough result to show for it. European nations were but waiting an excuse to recognize and help the Confederacy. It was a black hour for the Union. And to the Government's rescue came— ,@ woman! She was Anna Ella Carroll, daughter of a Maryland Governor—a woman whose warlike genius was worthy a Napoleon, a woman whose life was to end in heartbreak and bitter misery. Miss Carroll was born in 1815. She was rich and a society leader. In girlhood she mastered the study of law and quickly became @ power in local politics. When the civil war began there was grave danger that Maryland would secede from the Union. This would have imperilled the safety of Washington, our capital, and would have been of tremendous advantage to the South, Mias Carroll used her mighty influence with Gov. Hicks of Mary- land (whom she had helped to elect) to keep her native State in the Uniqn. And, thanks more to her than to any one other person, een Maryland did not secede. | A Woman Many people everywhere were in doubt as to our | Napoleon. Government's right to wage war on the South to restore * the Union. OOPPDDODOOOED Miss Carroll wrote @ set of pamphlets in which she upheld in masterly fashion the justice of the Government's acts and the righteousness of the Union cause. These pamphlets, which she published and distributed at her own expense, not only convinced countless people here in America, but aroused a feeling of Union sympathy throughout all Europe. Then came the great deeds of Miss Carroll's career—deeds which did eo much to save our country and which were never rewarded, President Lincoln jhad implicit faith in her military Judgment. He sent her secretly to the | Minstastpp! to report on the chances of success for a Federal expedition against that river's forts. Miss Carroll studied the situation and proved that such an attack would meet with utter failure. Thus she averted another national defeat, a amashing of Northern prestige and the loss of thousands of lives. i} Not content with this achievement, she went to the Tennessee River and | studfed out the conditions there. She reported to Lincoln that the right sort of expedition down the Tennessee must succeed and that it would divide the Confederacy In two, cutting off the Southerners from one of their chief sources of supplies. She drew up a full plan of campaign, with maps, routes, &c., and | Rave it to Lincoln. ae “If they knew it was a woman's plan,” the President declared, “the whole army would resizn!” | So the authorship of the campaign scheme was kept secret. Miss Carroll's plans were followed in every detail, The Federel armies were suddenly shifted from the Mississippi to the Tennessee. The Confederacy was unprepared for such ® move, As a result Forts Henry and Donelson Missouri was saved to the Unton and Kentucky and Tennessee were snatched from the Confetf@rates. Dozens of officers and other strategists bonstet loudly that this stroke of | genius was their own fMea, Miss Carroll, at Lincoln's entreaty, said nothing. Next, when every attempt to capture Vicksburg had failed, she worked out another plan, by means of which not only Vicksburg but the formidable Island No, 10 were captured. “Her plans broke the backbone of the Confeder: Another refers to her as “the great unrecognized m At the beginning of the war Miss Carroll had given lavishly to the Union.

Lincoln had persuaded her to keep the authorship of her campaign plans, &c., anonymous until the war should end, when she should be fittingly rewarded for her labors, But at the war's end Lincoln was shot.
