Was Ilamaon u crank thou or
now? . '
MoKinloy said of Cleveland in
a speech before tho republican
league of Ohio in 1892 s
"During all his years at the head
of the government, ho was djalioti
orih'g one of our precious metals,
one of our great production, dis
crediting silver and enhancing the
prico of gold."
He was not thinking of tho poor
then.
Cheap oats, cheap labor and
clear money was there ever more
glaring inconsistency or rookless
assumption?
Wo ask was McKinley an an
archist then?
"I would endow tho two metals
and make .the coinanj free.,' Gar
i;e)cl. ' "
Was Mr. Garfield opposed to
sound money?
Eight years ago tho republicans
in their National plntfonn declared
"Tho republican party is in favor
of tho use of both gold and silver
and condemns tho policy of tho
doino'oratjp administration in its
ell'ortB to uotnonotizo silver."
This is what tho silver republi
cans are favoring today and jf they
aro silver cranks, then the party
in 188$ was a 'silver crank',
All tho bankers, combines an,d
trusts aro working together. The
fanner and laborer knoty that th,eir
interests does not lie along tho
same path. History proves this.
Capital will crush labor whenever
and wherever it can. Let tho lab
orers organise for their own prp-
tection as they aro doing now aiid
they aro called anarchists, but cap
ital when they qrganizo it'is to
preserve tho oredij. and honor of
tho country. Who, wo iihk pro

THE SITE OF PARADISE.
There Ar .Morn Tlmn Klclity Theories
Itpifurilln; It.
Thcro pro more than eighty different
theories' regarding tho site of paradise'
namely, tho north pole. Polyn slan Is
lands, Canaries, Cashmere, delta of the
Indus, Arabia, Persia, Mesopotamia,
Syria, Palestine, Armenia, Scandinavia,
eastern Prussia, foot of St. Go-tUard In
Switzerland, otc, says the Hebrew
Standard. Thcso theories, the speaker
maintained, were dpficlont In three re
spects: Tljoy try to harmonize tho bib
lical dpscrlptlou with aottial geograph
ical conditions; they do not strictly ad
here to tho principle that tho words
used In tho description of paradise must
have tho same meaning that they al
ways have In other passages of the old
testament, and lastly, they confuse bib
lical and extra-bllillcal Jdeas,' falling to
distinguish between tho Hebrew con
ception of paradise and tho primitive
Babylonian view. According to the
views of tho Babylonians, as found in
tho Babylonian Nimrod Seplc, paradise,
die fountain of life, wa3 situated not
at tho head of four rivers, but at tho
mouths of the rh r$r. The Bnmo idea
Is found In tho oriental legends con
cerning Alexander tho Great, whlcfr
are ultimately derived from tho Baby
lonian " Imrod epic. Whcu tho He
brews adopted the Babylonian Idea of
paradlso they transferred the garden
of Kdcn from the mouths of tho rivers
to, the heads of these same fuur riv
ers, This was dono In accordance with
tho Idea of the Hebrews that God dwelt
in tho north. Such an idea in found,
for instance. In the first chapter of
Ezeklel, whero tho prophet lu relating
hlB vision distinctly says that he saw
It northward. And so, too, In the four
teenth caapter of Isaiah. Now these
changes, of course, ontalled a geograph
ical confusion, because, while tho four
rivers all empty Into the Persian gulf,
iney no not, of course, spring from tho
Eame sourco,
IN THf? BASQUE COUNTRY.
Tloturuiqaq T.ncalltir or 1'qonllur Itnnn
ty nnl lntorrnt.
Is delightful tor at least nine months
of tho year, but that portion which is
comprised in tho Basque provinces Is
peculiarly beautiful and interesting,
eaya tho Gentleman's Magazine. It 'r
not dincult to discover that tlo Frenth
and Spnnl3h Basques aro ono and the
eamo people, having tho samo habits
'and speaking tho same language. In
the Fiench provinco this languago is
spoken from the shores of tho Bay of
Biscay almost ao far as Oleroa to tho
east. In tho Spanish Baequo provinces
tho same peculiar dlaloct Is heard ao
soon as wo leave Biarritz, and when
we have passed tho custom houstTat
mm wo are In the heart of the Basque
district. Somo of the most picturesque
localities are Ilendavo, Fontarabla,
San Sebastian and Harnanl. which are
all In Gulpuzcoa, tho purest of the
Basquo provinces. At Pamnoluna and
at Vittorla, t well as at Bllboa,. the
lapguago Is constantly henrd also,
though at tho latter place it is not now
eo frequently used, as largo numbers
of foreign workmen have been Import
ed thero of late years. Tho wholo of
this lovely end variod landsc-pe, wild
though cultivated, gay and very sunny,
ycl temperato as compared with the
rest of Spain, has been poverned alnco
I87fi like 6ther parts of tho peninsula,
though It had previously a special
political regimen, and it has long besn
the headqvnrters of the Carlints. A
great p rtion is now traversed by the
railroad from Paris to Madrid, and by
the lines which run from Madrid to
Hondayo and from Bordeaux to I run.
Other branch linos extend from Bay
onno to St. Jean Pled de Port from
Pugro to St. Palais. The western re
gion of tho Pyrenees, in very remote
times, supplied tho passago through
which travelers from Spain penetrated
France. The Mcors took tho routo; it
was nlso through this district that the
pilgrims of (ho twelfth century passed.

Wrtlk llnekwnrri.
The assembling of tho proaont ses
sion of parliament in Fobruary waa
the first appearance of a hew black
rod, Faya Good Words. The oflico to
which a salary of 2,000 per nnnum t?
attached, with an assistant called the
"yeoman uaher of tho black rod," tp
discharge somo of its limitod duties
Is in the personal lft of the sovereign'
and fa invariably bestowed on an old
military or naval officer.
Admiral Sir James Drummond has
accordingly been succeeded by Gou.
Sir Michael Blddulph. Tho first np
pearanco of tho gallant general' lu the
role was distinguished by n few notar
ble "now departures" from established
usage. Sir Michael Blddulph discarded
the old ofllclal dress of the ofllcc and
appeared In tho( more picturesque un
iform of an army generaj, wearing hla
many medals on his aearlot tunic and
carrying his plumed hat in his left
hand, while he bore in IiIb right a new
od of much larger dimensions than
that whioh was carried for so many
years by his predecessor.
Thcro is nothing perhaps more dim
cult than to walk backward from tho
table to the bar with ease and graco
and dignity. Sir Mlchaol Blddulph did
not attempt tho feat. After ho had de
livered at the t1)lo tho customary
summons that the lords commissioners
desired the Immetllafo attenda,nco of
tho commons in tho upper chamber to
hear tho queen's speech j-cad, he bowoj
low to tho speaker and then walked
down to the bar, not In thrt convention
al manner of progression but the man
ner ordained by nature. No objection
was raised to tho Innovation. No
member cried "Order, order!" at tho
moment, nor when the speaker return
ed from the house of lords, was his at
tention called to it by any stickler for
ancient etiquette.
Of course, the action of black i;od
may have been due solely to a species
of "stage fright," to forgetfulncss en
gendered by the natur.il embarrass
ment of a novice In a navel and trying
situation; but whatever may have been
the explanation whether lt-waB an un
rehearsed effect, or an effect duly set
down In tho book of the play as amend
ed by Sir Michael Blddulph the pre
cedent has been established; and in an
assembly ruled by precedent as tho
