* OX TOWARD HIS SECOND MILLION. Elbert Hubbard refers to Billy Sunday as the “ Cash-Re*;isle: former,” who has “ transmuted a baseball reputation into

^ist dollars."

At the Sunday headquarters in Philadelphia it is stated that the ink offering would reach the $100,000 mark before the campaign

March 15, and it was predicted that it would be the gre-Aest collection of unspokeu buncombe ever put out at Govern me uaexpense. There have been protests against printing such a Hue-s If usclera m aerial, never delivered in debate. But with the Democrat party in power the abuse seems to grow worse and worst This is the conventional rigmarole. An obscure niembr from an unknown district rises, with tremblings in his heart, to deliver a speech tliat shall make the stock markets tremblt H t!f of the few members present are buried iu the newspapers or courting sleep. Most of tho^e would go out were it not for a certain tacit

nndentanding.

Tlie blushing statesman is allowed to pronounce ^ few sentences of his speech on the understanding that all the rest is to be printed in the Congressional Record. Innocent people imagine these lofty words of burning eloquence were delivered in the hushed assemblage of the n ition’s solons. As a matter of feet few besides the doorkeeper and newly-married couples in thf gallery heard it There is a real need for an account of the things really said in Congress. The newspapers piobably underestimate the number of jx-ople who would like a better account of the give and take of that liody. A great many brilliant and able things arc said, which fi - tclligtnl people would like to read about It the Record could be cut down to the limits of an actual report, and extracts from books, newspapers, and political platforms cut ont, it would not cost so much to distribute it It could be circulated &r more widely, and it would be very generally read. Sonieune the ruling powers ought to have sense euongli to make it a real rcpoit, instead of a means of flattering the vanity of such con:ressmeu as use it tor electioneering.

Country Should Await War’s Verdict Before Building More Warships

HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF. The well -worn saying “ History repeals itself ” was never belter illustrau d than when reading a copy ot a newspaper called m’s Daily Mail," which HI into enr hands the other day, e paper was dated at Philadelphia April 21, 1855. One might ItA p periodical of this date would be a *‘ h rk nuinlie: " in every ; and it may be suiprisiug to learn that many o! its new* pan - f .jgrapbs would not a,.|«ar out ot place in a paper ol to-day, while e subjects ol its ieadi«g articles arc just as much iu the public [- mind now as then. t - For instance the progress of-.he European war, in which «r< read of “ the Allies,” iutrenchmctiU, the pruspo U of peace, and the ;faltimaiion that Great Britain is a little t o ambitious almut “ rnlin^iihe waves.” Other subjects discussed arc tiie situation in Mexico. Frohibiiiim laws, ‘‘The Horrors of War,” the need of mura enlist menu in the United States Navy, and ‘‘Submarine Explorations” y means 01 an improved diving bell, e on prohibition the ediior is confident that such a y^ l be passed in Pennsylvania within a year. He !>c]irv<-s it e best possible .neans of controlling the liqnor traffic, ami considers it only a matter of time when it will prevail fin the cnititr country. Doubtless, however, he did not loirscr how much time. The wai of course, was the Crimean, in which the A1IR% Knglaud and France, were combined against tbeir present ally, Russia. We sec by the market reports that it had the same effect t-jeu ■ the present war on the price ;.f grain, only mure so. Wheat is quoted at 2.50 to 275, flour *1.50 a barrel, rye 1.50, cum 1.10, oats 79c. Cotton was selling at from six to ten cents a pound, sugar at I about present prices. But coffee is quoted at ten and eleven cents, 3 bacon eight to ten, hams ten to twelve ami a-halfa }>ound. Atir otkci very modern touch ap|wars in the market report, whcic against ^Certain items is “ Nothing doing."

FARMERS AND ADVERTISING.

The following actual happening came to the ears of ihc wriUt e other day. A plisiciau with a large and growing family decided 9 move out into the country to save expenses. In ordet to h« 1| |it on bis income, he started in poultry raising. He hud had no rience whatever at it, and the fiumcis of the neighborhood gbed at him. They thought he would soon retire from the coni-

(Stfon with more experience ami tcwci dollaiv

The doctor, however, made quite a study of scientific poultry ig. One ol his ideas was to live primers' ink freely. He in1 with h;r deliveries of eggs a printed circular telling the public about his turtbnds. He emphasized the cleanliness and sauimdition of his poultry bouses. He spoke of his care to feed k fbwh a well-balanced ration ol Isitli grain and vegetable foot!. Itold vf the care to sort the eggi for size, color and cleanliness,

1 Ik guaranteed a given weight j«cr dozen.

^ fanners of the town were selling thcii eggs to the cuuntry r a small price. Probably the store had to sell to a wholnwlei, y may have liad to go tliropgli several hands. The doctor, j it a little better price than the farmers were getting at thej ion picked up a good trade in the nearest laigc town. Pin a short time be was cleaning up the w hole product of his

Fjpoultiv yard at bcttri juices than mt-ii were getting who hud inun-i

^ keyed with chicken raising all their lives.

probably bis simple little jiriuted statement of his methods hudj tamo to do with it than anything else. No doubt many of the old I I had equally good methods. But they took no joins to trill p tfifc public about them. If in ik< -> little diflrrrncr how good a man's I f method-, are, how well prodiKi-d his goods air, how low they are] selling, if he never takes any pain- to tell flic jiubtic about it.

I T would be little short of a crime for the naval committee and for congress if we rushed the construction of battleship* until we know what lessons the war will teach and show to be wise. I am opposed to building warships for this aame reason. \TE DO NOT KNOW WHAT THE END OF THE WAR WILL SHOW. WHAT MAY APPEAR NOW AS A NECESSITY MAY NOT BE NEEDED WHEN THE WAR ENDS. Now, I happened to be in Britain on a memorable occasion when the British made the greatest blunder. At that period Great Britain bad the largest and most commanding navy, while Germany's nary was small in compariaon, but thr British naral expert* adriaed Britain to go on enlarging it and for the building of the greatest Dreadnoughts. What was the result of England’s great naval expansion ? Germany saw what was going on and immediately began to increase her navy. Germany built auper-Dreadnoughta. That is the fact. ENGLAND GAVE GERMANY THE IDEA OF A GREATER NAVY. THEN ONE RESULT OF THIS GREAT DEVELOPMENT OF ENGLAND'S NAVY MADE SOME SIX HUNDRED TO SEVEN HUNDRED OF THE ENG USH NAVAL BOATS OBSOLETE OR. AT LEAST, MORE ORNAMENTAL THAN USEFUU I am very hopeful we will wait until this war is over before starting a building program for an additional navy. Let us wait for oeveM years and see what should be done. I am sure the peoples and nation* now at war will all have enough of war by that time, and they will be glad for a rest and a wait too.

What an Owner Cannot do

Beyond a certain point an Owner cannot regulate the Contractor he employs. You can cage a leojord, but you cannot change his spots or hi* jwint ol view. Hut what an Owner CAN DO is to select, in the first place, a Contractor who has an established reputation for integrity efficiency and results.
