DAILY ENQUIRER - SUN : COLUMBUS, GEORGIA, SATURDAY MORNING DECEMBER 25, 1X86. £Ne Has Definitely Retired from the Stand ard Oil Company.

I*a)nr In So Nignimp, C V !W York World. London, I)«cember21.—I saw Col. Oliver •’nine, of Ohio, at the Charing Cross hotel this afternoon. He is stopping here a few days before going on to the south of Franco •where he will spend the remainder of the •winter. "You have just come from New York,” said I, "and, perhaps you can give some information as to the report that the Standard oil company is interested in a gas franchise in tha' city?” “No, I cannot,” said he. I withdrew from the Standard oil company two years mgo. I am not in any way actively con nected with its affairs. One of its stock holders may have purchased a gas franch ise Jn New York, but I could not say whether the company is concerned in the matter or not. I would prefer not to say anything, as I know nothing about it. I am endeav oring now to get as far away from business as possible. My retirement from thefStand- ard oil company was bona fide. X am reul- >y out of it, and am now in Europe to en joy a visit which I have long looked for ward to with great pleasure. I was never here hut once before. That was three ..years ago. 1 w s iiere then but for a short »Jmc, having come over to join my sister, whose little child died in J’aris. I have been a very busy man most of mv life, and I think I am now entitled to a little rest. So you must not ask me anything about the affairs of the Standard oil company.” "Hut as to polities, what shape do things seem to he taking in the United States for 1888?” " It Is too early to make reliable esti mates. We have yet two winters bcioro the next presidential campaign and great changes may take pla-c in the aspect of affairs before that time. The present ses- ■sion of congress will probably be conipara tiveiy unimportant, but some grave ques tions must come up for solution at the fol iowing session, ana out of the solution or attempted solution of those questions new Issues may arise for public consideration, and new issues frequently bring out new and unexpected men.” "I suppose you mean that congress must take np, among other things, the tarili and ithe treasury surplus?” “Something must lie done ubout the (treasury surplus very soon, otherwise there vwtJJ ifee a financial panic. There is no im- unedlate danger of this, but the issue must be met, face to face, before long. Every body is afraid to undertaae the revision of (the tarilf That there are inequalities and absurdities in the present law nobody can deny. Hut there can tie no unanimity of procedure with reference to its adjustment to the needs of the present Uuy. Wo might cut down the internal revenue. We might take half the tax off whiskey and all the tax off tobacco. The latter is no longer a luxury—it is a necessity almost us great as bread, and it used mostly by the poor. It would he a blessing, therefore, the workingman if the tax thereon ■wore removed. But everybody is timid about undertaking these reductions. The party that leads in the reduction of the tax on whisky incurs the hostility of the tem perance element, and there it is that you are offending a large and important ol - meutand running a political risk. Our men who go to congress now are perhaps ■not as courageous us they ought to he, and thut is why congress hesitates so much about dealing with questions that are growing bigger and more dangerous every .day." "But if the surplus in the treasury goes • on increasing, no reductions in I he revenue being accomplished, wh it ought to be • done with the money?” '"Of course, we would have to dispose of It in some way. Wo could not keep it rAhore. Somebody Imd suggested that we might loan it out to the banks. That would never do. It would lie practically giving u brokerage business to the govern ment. i think Mr. Tilden’s suggestions as to coast defenses excellent. We might lay out a great deal of money in coaBl de fenses and in the construction of a navy. Public opinion seems to lie moving that way. It is a shame that we should have no navy after having spent more money flfor one than either France or Italy. We •ought to have a great navy for the uutbor- dty and the honor, if it be for no other rea sons. The dignity of a great country like -tiurs ought to lie supported by a great navy, tiiough there might lie never so little (prospect of war.” "Is Mr. Cleveland going to be a strong -candidate for the presidency nt the next election?” “Ah I have already said, we have yet two sessions of congress before the next elec tion, and we can’t tell wind men und issues will come to tile surface. The mugwumps are still very enthusiastic over Mr. Cleve land. X am not a mugwump. 1 believe in the definite division of parties. 1 believe in the llxing and maintaining of party re sponsibility when a party is in power. The government of the country ought to •-The distinctly chargeable to that party, and ill ought to stand or fall upon tile applica tion of this rule. But again, 1 repeat, it is Marly.” When very young children are deprived of their natural nourishment it is diilieult ■to procure a proper substitute therefor; hence the alarming mortality among in fants. Mellin’s Food, which is recom mended by tlie highest medical authori ties, lias been prepared to meet this very wuut. decll tii,tli,sat,se&^v ■“IMclift Klein Kveryl Ii I MU- Down In Juries.” A man in Ontario “can repeat .perfectly 108 chapters in tile Bible, fifty-eight psalms and every collect, epistle and gospel in the soolesiastioal year, according to the English church prayer book.” A remnrk- able memory; but can lie tell the date of the last slugging match between Sullivan and Tug Wilson?

Most people would say, if they told the truth, there was no limit to the mistakes of life; that they were like the drops in the ocean or i the sands of the shore in numbers, hut it is wteli to be accurate. Here, then, are four- teen great mistakes: It is a great, mistake ilo set up our own standard of right and tan-ong, and judge people accordingly; to . _ - 1 by mvn; to expect uniformity of opinion in this world; to look for judgment and ex perience in youth; to endeavor to mold all dispositions alike; not to yield to immate rial trifles; to look for perfection in ourowri actions; to worry ourselves and others with what cannot be remedied, and not to alleviate all that needs alleviation as far as lies in our power; not to make allowances for the infirmities of others; to consider everything impossible that we cannot per form; to believe only what our finite minds can grasp; to expect to be able to under stand everything. "I’onntimptioti Cnn He Cured.” Dr. J. 8. Combs, Owensviiie, Ohio, says: “I have given Scott’s Eon ill m of Cod | I.iver Oil with HypophosphRes to four pa- I tlents with bet Ur resvlta than seemed pos. siiiio with any remedy. All were heredi tary eases of lung disease, and advanced to ; that stage when Couchs, ruin in the chest, • frequent, breathing. frequent pulse, fever i and emaciation. All these cases have in- ! creased in weight frorrj 10 to 2S ibs., and j are not now needing any medicine.” dm 21 tu th sat se&w 4w Tin: Merriest liar.

The dawn upon the world’s long night Of iiini Ood sent to give it light Hath spiingofjoy and blessedness, That faileth not norgroweth less, On Christmas morning. I cannot hear the Christmas chimes, Or liHt toChristmas -ingers’ rhymes, Hut tenderer my spirit grows, And gladness all my speech o’erflows, On Christmas morning. I cannot greet our young or old But merry wishes manifold Iteturn t i mo, for like my own, All hearts appear wide open thrown On Christmas morning. Our Christmas day on eartli may bo How few God knoweth —only He; Yet may our lives so Christiike grow Each day our hearts shall feel the glow On ChrlHtnms morning. With Christmas cheer for all the year— A heart set Tree from care and fear— Our souls may ripe for Advent grow. And thus each year more gladness know On Christmas morning.
