OME MEN cannot bear to be contradicted and consider
themselves so much of an authority that they become
offended if one has the boldness to offer an opinion
Such men become so from different causes. Some from the
fact that they are of a naturally dominating spirit, and others
they really think that no -qne has the right to dispute their
conclusions. We are glad to state that very few of this class
of people ever get into-politics. It’s bad enough as it is.

HE CONFERENCE of Boer leaders with Lord
Kitchener can only have one object in view, namely,
the making of peace. It is to be hoped that some
agreement may be reached that will cause.a cessation
of hostilities, for the civilized world has watched with unspeakable sadness the heroic but hopeless struggle of the
Boers against overwhelming odds. The war.is abhorrent to
the enlightened sentiment of humanity, and while it was not
an unnatural outcome of conditions which had long caused

Looking for a Leader
HERE isa game the children play called “Still Pond.”
One player is blindfolded and the others move
around until the leader calls,“Still pond, no moving.”
Then the blindfolded one tries to catch some one else,
and if possible to tell who it is without removing the bandage
from the eyes. If successful the player so caught becomes
“it” for the next game. Ae
In much the same way the Democratic party is seeking
and that it will blind is a fact. The

A Woman’s War.
ADIES of high social position in the four cities of New
York, Philadelphia, Boston and Chicago have commenced a systematic agitation for the repeal of the/street and to see the street void of the
~ Jaw taxing the personal clothing of Americans returning from Europe. Republicans who bear in mind the effective electioneering of ladies to secure the repeal of-the tinplate clause in the McKinley tariff admit the force of this
movement. The anti-tin-plate-tax agitation came from the
wives of workingmen, while the agitation against the personal baggage tax comes from social leaders, but the inspiring influence is the same in both cases. The wives and
daughters of workingmen objected to the increased cost of
tinware, aud the social leaders object to the increased cost of
their clothes. The McKinley law taxing foreign tin plate
has been justified by results. It transferred the tin-plate industry from Wales to the United States, but the women
brought about the repeal of the law before it had effected: its
avowed purpose.
There is one point of difference between the two agita‘tions set in motion by women. The ingrease in the cost of. and the damage to busiv
tinware. reached every household in the country, while the
tax on the personal clothing of women only affects women
who occasionally go to Europe, and of these, only those who
can buy largely at reduced ‘prices their costly clothing: in
Enropean cities: It is not supposed that ladies who never
expect to “do” Europe will take a-very. lively interest in the
trials of those who regard the European trip as’ an annual
diversion. It is of little use to tell these social leadérs that
the tax on personal clothing only subjects them to the tax
burden-that ladies bear who buy imported goods in the home
market. These social leaders have made up their minds
that the tax is unjust, and they propose to agitate until it is
That there isa very general kindly
and almost affectionate feeling among
all for the men who work as motormen. and conductors on street rail~
roads can not be denied. And it is
right that this should be. Asa class
fal to their trust. In winter’a cold
and in summer’s heat, by day and by
place in ite heart for these men.
So that the strikers have immediate-'
strong pointe at that, in the general
esteem—one point they win through
.jthe unpopularity of the roads, the
other because of their own popularity.
And they have strengthened those
two points by the acts of their leaders and the orders so far issued. The
strikers have materially enhanced
their position, by the instructions
given them by their leaders to help
pat thecars back in the barns, and
that the strike shall be conducted by:
peaceable and orderly methods.
A correspondent has the following
to say about the strike: It was a
strange sight to look along Market
heavy car traffic su usual, at this time
of the year. There were all kinds of
vebicles hastily. called into requisition
—tugales, carryalle, -omnibuses,
grocers’ wagone—in fact, almost avy
kind of a vehicle that could be drawn
by horses. ;
Some, carried passengers for hire,
and all did athriving business. Everyone seemed to take the situation good
nataredly, and from ali conversations
one could hear along the way, the
sympathy seems almost in ail cases
to be io favor of the strikers.

How High Birds Fly.
A Strassburg aeronaut says he has

yards, and again a pair of storks and a
buzzard 900 yards above the sea level.
On March 10, 1890, some aeronauts
observed a lark flying at a height “of
1,000. yards. On July 18, 1899, another
palloon met a couple of crows at an
altitude of 1,400 -yards. These, however, are exceptions. Birds are hardly
ever seen above a height of 1,000 yards;
even above 400 yards they are not frequent.
