A Question Settled

Old Joe b was quiet old man,
but somewhat too fond of the bottle.
When in his cups, his idea tended toward
theological matters, which he always
avoided in his sober moments. 1t was
Saturday afternoon Connecticut baking
day., and his good wife wanted some
wood for the oven.
''Jpe, | do wish you would 60 and
split some wood. Here it Is nearly two
O'Clock, and the fire ism made.
Joe went to execute his commission,
but fearing his physical condition was
weak. marched to the neighboring tavern
to tortify himself therein He returned
home utterly oblivious to all these things,
save his pet theories. Seating himself
on his chair. he said : Il say (hie) Jane,
do you (hic) think the Lord (hic) means
to burn US all (hic) up in fire ?''
His venerable spouse, being exceed
ingly iratc. did not answer. Again he
repeated the question. Still an ominou.
silence.
Wife, do you think the Lord mean:
to burn us up in fire everlasting?
mol said the now thoroughly
aroused housewife no you old fool
not if he waits for you to split the
wood !"

Education.

1t was argued in-the Senate, on the
motion to reduce the appropriation for
the Bureau of Education. that the sup
port Of education belonged exclusively to
the States This may be true enoug h
looking at it from the judicial point of
view. But when it is remembered that
the Southern States have never main
tanned proper or adequate public schools
tor white children, and are not likely
voluntarily to impose taxes to educate
those of the blacks, will not the Senate
do an unwise thing in practically aboi-
ishing the Bureau of Education by refus-
ing, asst threatens, the necessary appro-
priation for its support?

Young Men, Read this.

In the pocket book of the Hon. Ste
phen Allen, who was drowned from on
board the Henry Clay, was found print
ed slip, apparently cut from newspaper,
of which the following is a copy. 1t is
worthy to be placed III every newspaper
and engraved on the heart of every young
man.
Keep good company, or none. Never
be idle, Ii your hands can't be usefully
employed, attend to the cultivation of
your mind. Always speak the truth.
Make few promises. Live up to your
engagements. Keep your own secrets If
you have any. When you speak to a
person, look him in the face. Good COM
pany and good conversation are the very
sinews Of virtue. Good character is
above all things else. Your character
cannot be essentially injured except by
your own acts. Ii any one speaks evil of
you, let your life be such that no one
will believe him. Drink no kind of in
toxicating liquor. Ever live (misfor-
tunes exceptedl within your income.
" hen you retire to bed, think over
what you have been doing during the
day Make no haste to be rich, if you
would prosper Small and sea ygains give
compt t.ncy with raal il mind. Never
play at any game of chance. AVOID temp
tation, through fear you may lot with
stand it. Earn money before you spend
it. Never ran into debt unless you see
a way to get out again. Never borrow
if you can possibly avoid it. Do not PIT
off until tomorrow that which should e
done to day. Do not marry until you
are able to support wife. Never speak
evil of any one. Be just before you AZ
generous Keep yourself innocent, if
you wou lie happy. Save when you
are young, to spend when you are cid.
Read over the above maxims at least once
a week. -

Death of Bishop Ke1nper.

A dispatch from Delafeld. Wisconsin,
yesterday afternoon, announced the death
of the Right Reverend jackson Kemper,
Bishop of the diocese of Wisconsin, at
his residence at Nashotah, at twenty
minutes past two o'clock, p. III. This
intelligence was not unexpected by the
friends of the deceased, as his health had
been failing for some weeks and his ad-
vanced age made it apparent that he
could not recover.
Bishop Kemper was born in Pleasant
Valley, Duchess county, New York, on
the 18th of December, 1859; he was
consequently in his Slst year. He was
educated in Columbia College, New
York, and graduated in 1909, and two
years thereafter was ordained to the min
istry in Philadelphia, and became the
assistant Of Bishop White in Christ
church in that city. Some years later
he was engaged in missionary work III
Pennsylvania and Ohio, and was one OF
the first of his church TO prea, III the COS
pei west of the Alleghanies From 1880
to 1885, he was rector Of a church n
Norwalk: Conn. Then he was made
missionary Bishop OF the northwestern
states. This was very large field, en-
bracing territory which now constitutes
about dozen dioceses. He at first took
up his residence in ST. Louis, but spent
most of his time in travelling over his
large field of labor. The country was
then little else than wilderness, and his
duties were arduous but the rapid set
tlement Of the country called for divis-
ION OF his labors from time to time, and
new dioceses wore carved out of his
until it was narrowed down to Wiscon-
sIh.
About the year 1S43 theological SEM
mary was established at Nashotah, and
the Bishop took up his residence on :.
farm adjoining, and, ever since, that
quiet spot has been his home. From
yea to year he has gone forth to his
work of love and faith In different parts
Of tie State, and few there are who were
not familiar with his venerable form and
kindly tace.
He was a man of great activity, and
unfaltering in his devotion to his good
work. He was universally respected and
honored where known for his kindness
of manner, his great personal worth and
for consistent and unaffected piety. Few
men have been permitted so long and 20
useful career; few men, In any cline,
have done so much to spread the cause
of christianity, and fewer still have gone
to their long home leaving behind them
a wider circle of loving friends. His puri
ty Of life and his untiring devotion to
his holy calling form an example which
will long survive him. Wisconsin, Maq

How TO LEARN.-Never forget what
a man has said to you when be was an
CRY. IF he has charged you with any
thing, you had better look it up. A per-
son has often been startled from pleas
ant dream of self deception by words of
an angry man. who may wish his works
unsaid the next hour, but they are a: t
recall. The wisest course is to take hon e
this lesson with meekness to our soul
1t was a saying of Socrates that eve Y
man had need of faithful friend and a
bitter enemy; the enc to advise, an | the
other to show him his faults.

The Kansas City Daily NesOs, one Of
our most welcome exchanges, in refer
ring to the claim Of the ADVOCATE
that the Paterson Cigarmakers' Union
was the banner society Of the National
organization, in regard to their dona-
ton to the Cincinnati strikers, says:
"The workingmen of Paterson have done
well, but il may not be amiss in this connection
to inquire what the Kansas City Branch Of the
organization has done.
"The Cigarmskers' Union numbers forty-one
members, and during the continuance of the
Cincinnati strike they contributed $40 TO their
brethren in distress. This 10 just about in the
same proportion as subscribed by the Paterson
Union, numbering over thirty members. Thus
it will be seen that Kansas City has not been
behind it's more Eastern rivals in beDevolence.
We do not make this statement boastingly
but merely as an illustration Of how little the
true spirit of fraternity is Influenced by geo
graphical considerations"
All honor say we to the Kansas City
Union. We assure its members we
publish the foregoing with deal Of
pleasure, and shall be happy to record
such efforts on the part of our Western
unionists, of whom we have every
reason to feel proud.

CAN IT BIZ TRUR2

From a telegraPhic dispatch we
learn that the directors of the Midland
Railway have entered into contract
to employ 1000 China laborers at $40
per month, and provide them with
lodging, &c. Accustomed as we are
to the shameless rascality Of this class
Of men, we cannot yet believe that the
report is true. While we have never
advocated violence in any shape, as our
readers can testify, we believe there
are times when forbearance ceases to
be virtue and this is certainly one
of them. If the rumor should prove to
be a true one, we trust the working
men directly interested, will make a
wreck of the track from one end of the
road to the other; and if the National
Government shall have the temefity to
protect the rights (9) of the soulless
vagabonds who thus invite the conflict
by the Federal bayonet-we believe
100000 stalwart sons of toll will rush
to he rescue. The question at issue
may as well be tested in 1869, as in
70 or 'S9. American workmen have
some rights, which even railroad cor
poralions are bound to respect, and
when their rights are thus trampled
under foot, we believe in scabbard-
less sword, in war to the knife, and the
knife to the hif.
A word to the wise is sufficient.
We assure the embryo directors oil
the Midland, that they are trenching
on dangerous ground. The terrible or.
deal through which the nation has Just
passed, teaches them a lesson, if they
are able to read it; but they can rest
assured that the farmer didn't leave
his plough, the blacksmith his anvil
the joiner his bench, or the bricklayeI
shis trowel, to give a soulless, heartless
money-grasping, would-be bastard
aristocracy the privilege Of importing
coolies at $40 or $40 per month, while
American workingmen-the men who
risked their lives to preserve the lib.
critics and institutions of their country
are forced to walk the streets of our
cities or villages, without the means Of
earning respectable livelihood.

Arkansas. is very severely censured
by his colleagues for his so-called
oficiousness in publicly calling atten-
ton TO the presence Of lobbyists on the
floor the other day. and demanding
that the rules OF the House be enforced
against them, who assert that they are
not annoyed by the presence Of these
enterprising and public-spirited gentle
men.
The tariff bill il now being discussed,
and every member is in favor OF the
tiscriminations in favor Of his own
constituents. No ONE who has spoken
seems to have considered that If the
manufacturers and others engaged in
industrial pursuits were furnished
money at the same rates of interest that
England has adopted, that we could
successfully compete with that country
without a tariff NoREMAcUH.

badly cooked meals, from cracked and
smoking stoves. If the wife has fuel
and water convenient, and good tools
to work with, she will not cause us to
complain of her being cross, or that
she lis too tired to make US comfortable
when we come in from work. Let
every family be cooperative society /;
let the children sleep in well ventilated
rooms, have conveniences for bathing,
and receive we'll Booked, wholesome
foo4, and they will be healthy, clean.
and cheerful. But how are we to Sc
cure all these comfortsp Where there
is a. will there is a way. In the FIRST
place let us make ourselves skillfnl
workmen, in the second place let us
savb our earnings and put something
by at interest every week. Many Of us
are;earning from three to FIVE dollars
per, day-can we not lay up at least
one dollar per week? If so, even at
this rate, in thirty years we shall have
accumulated over s., 1000, counting the
interest at six per cent per annum.
Five dollars per week in the same time
woa ld amount to $4,000. Suppose
yoy are twenty-one years of age now,
in thirty years you will be ffty-one-
just in your prime-and 821 900 laid
by3 which you have honestly earned
vii Ii your own hands, while contribut-
ing to the comfort and happiness Of
YOUR fellew-men. If we can save
money enough to buy lot, we shall
haEe no difficulty in borrowing at .
moderate rate of interest, money
en5ugh to build at first one wing to our
cottage upon it, giving a mortgage and
a policy ofinsurance on the property to
SECURE the loan. Hundreds of mechanics
I'M our large cities are thus secur-
ink themselves homes at this time, and
these men will soon be partners in the
ess Adjustments where they work; they
ar being thus admitted into bust
ndss every day IN our factories.
Why shall not all become partners ?
W. believe that they will in time,
add that just as soon as they are
fitted for it. There are admirable laws
| in many of our States authoriz-
irsg the establishment of joint stock
corporations for manufacturing pur-
pSses, which is Just the thing for CO.
operative organizations. Let us then
incorporate ourselves, let US become
employers and projectors. What is
wanting to enable US to do this

WASHINGTON, D. O., March %.
TO the Editor Ofths woaKuexAS's ADvooArk
To-day discussion is going on in
the Supreme Court by the Attorney
General of the United Stat, in favor
of granting perpetual inju. ction pro-
hibiting the State Of Kansas from tax
ing the Union Pacific railroad, Eastern
Division; thus the great influence of the
present administration in a measure
has been diverted to secure to this cor
poration exclusive privileges.
The donation of millions Of acres Of
the public lands to this corporation is
urged as reason why the injunction
should be granted. To what extent
special privileges will be granted to
banking, railroad, and other corpora
tons, am utterly unable to guess, but
if all the property Of all the railroads
of the State of Kansas be exempted
from taxation and the industrial pur-
suits-such as farming and merchan-
dising be required to bear all the bur-
dens Of government in that State, its
prosperity will be greatly retarded,
and the entire property in a few years
will be seized and sold for taxes, and
will, doubtless, fall into the hands of
Eastern capitalists, Of whom might
nominate the Ames' family and the
Hoar's, Of Boston.
The Hon. Oaks Ames has a desk in
the front tier in the House Of Repre-
sentatives, from which he peddles free
passes to members of Congress and
such newspaper men as represent influ-
entail journals, whose services they
thus hope to secure.
AS write there are in the lobby of
the House persons well known to me
whose names are Ex-Governor Fetch
er, of Missouri; Gen. Craig, Gen.
Terry, Gen. Dodge, Col. Coates, Judge
Usher, Abeel, Van Horn, and Ames,
and this is only small detail from the
army Of lobbyists that now infest the
Capitol.
Lobbying has, no doubt, always
been a paying BIZ, and of late it has
been increasing in dignity as a profess
sion. President Grant is said to have
given it his countenance, and Gen.
Sherman has, by his presence, i'm
proved the prospects of the Ames'
family in the Senate during the discus
sion Of the eligibility of the white Sena-
tor-elect from Mississippi.
