Commemorative little boys
In the eastern part of the county,
aged respectfully IL aud IA years, this
last season Of their own accord and
without assistance, raised some 5000
pounds of tobacco, for which they re-
coived $3.50. This is commendable
III thesc iatherless little boys, and
SHOWS plainly what boys nj do if
they oniy nave the will to Try. These
BOYS, unauvised or instructed in to-
bacco raising, Qbeing the first they
ever atte'npted), managed this CROP
10 the astonishment of their NEIGH.
bors, and instead Of idlihg as most
boys, now-a-days do, spent their
time in their tobacco patch. BOYS.
this Is au example worthy of imita.

Rritish Pontlcs.

The political aspect OF affairs IN
Englandis more exciting than usual
and we may look for sn.improvement
in the cable dispatches from that
island. There 10 no war nor any
thing OF that kind, simply q change
Of ministry. But y change Of min
istry in England indicates 50 politica
revolution of more D. less signif:
canoe.
Tho difficulty this time 10 over the
Irish question, which has given
British statesmen more trouble than
all other questions combined. The
Episcopal Church of Ireland was die.
established in 1858, Which measure
was championcd by Gladstone, who
upon it's passage became Primo Mill
lister. An attempt OF his part dur
ing the present session of Parliament
To extend further privllegesofan co.
ucatioRal character TO the oppressed
Catholics of ireland has resulted IN
his signal overthrow, the "Irish Uni-
vcrsi,y bill" having been voted down
,hs other day by an overwhelming
majority. According to the custom
there this necessitated G~ladstone's
resignation, which he laid before the
Queen without delay. The brilliant
Tory Disracli is looked TO as his sue
cessor. These two men, Gladstone
and Disracli, have long been rivals,
and arc among the most remarkable
men not only in England but in Eu-
rope. The former is sixty-foury years
o., age, and is conceded to be u Of
the finest orators Of his time. He is
q finished scholar, and has distin-
guishcd himself in literature as well
as politics. 1t was of Gladstone that
Charles Sumner recently said, 90. If
| were all Englishman, how proud l
would DO of him." Disraeli is even
more famous in the word Of letters
than his rival, being the author OF
eCSCIai pOpuiS hosSis iS -
finished orator and most expert de-
batter.
Parties in England now bear about
the same relation to each other that
the Democratic and Wing parties did
in our own country. The people feel
equally safe with their affairs in the
hands O. citller party, since they re-
gard them both a. patriotic and
earnestly working for the bes, i'll
tcrcst of the whole country.
Whatever else may come Of the
present ruGlc in British politics, We
trust it may have the effect q! i'm
pressing upon the people of England
the necessity of extending more :r'.-
erous treatment towards the lJ!,
suffering peoDle OF Ireland,

The ~Engineers' Strike.

The difficulty on the ST. Louis,
Kansas City and Northern Railroad
seems TO be about over. Trains are
now running regularly, ms formerly,
though still under guard, and each
succeeding day brings additional con-
fidencc in tho ability of the company
to put them through on time.
The origin of the strike is tho old
story. The Brotherhood of Locomo-
tive Engineers thought they were
sufficiently organized to successfully
assert their right to control the EN-
ployment of engineers OH the road
and they were not. The following is
u summary of the whole thing:
The difficulty commenced by the
Brotherhood demanding the discharge
of an engineer named Chas. Chaplin
this the company refused to do, as
the engineer was a sober, compliant
man, and was not trying to work for
less wages. US some have been led to
believe. Word was passed 10 the
brotherhood, all along the line, and
the strike commenced. Property of
the company was being DESTROYED
along the line Of the roud-the COM
pany telegraphcd to the Governor
tor aid, VINO ordered out the police
at st. Louis and Kansas City, and
one or two militia companies. A
train was fired into; telegraph wires
cut; six locomotives diiched; a

Tho Lesson OF the ate Strike
tKansas City Times, oad.l


AS 4 class, we do uot believe the
compensation paid railroad engineers
is commensurate with the skin and
labor required: Some legislation
upon the subject to protect this class
OF labor is requisite. A board of ex-
aminers should be provided, and no
railroad company should be permit
ted to employ any engineer who has
passed on examination and OBJ
tained a license 10 ~ engineer. This
will prevent roads from placing trains
under the charge OF incompetent men.
and thereby enuanyerin2 life and
property. 1t will also protcc ct skilled
labor from competition with unskill-
Ell labor. 1t may be urged in uppos,-
ton to this that it will place the
roads o nrch under tho cuptlol or
at the mercy of licensed engineers in
regard to compensation for their
labor. This can be c~onnterscted by
providing that the board osexarniRers
shall also, in case Of = controversy of
this kind, be "a board Of arbitrators,
whose determination shall be binding
upon both parties. This will secure
a fa!r and peaceful solution OF the
question OF strikes and the dangers
growing ont of them, secure TO the
and faithful engineer a emu
commensurate with the
peri!s and lahors Of his Responsible
position, srrure the roads against ex-
tortion and the travelling public
against the perils occasione,l by the
employ men at reduced rates Of MI
and unreliable men. Make IT !
q high penal osssss for aus railroad !
to employ an u~nlirenscd engineer.
The position OF engineer is one Of
great responsibility and peril, and
n"ne but sober, reliable and sk,iltul
men should be employed. A Lille up
oil The rail is . liicof continued pcrii.
MI high wages should be paid to
good engineers.

Henry Ward Beeeher is trying to
play the "bis man. in demanding
81 1900 for one ofhis lectures, and the
papers very justly call the Rev.
humbug to task for his avaritious-
meas. One Of his lectures 10 on the
subject Of "monsy getting" which

with all his might. The hypocrite !!
Beecher is and always has been a
charlaton of the first water, and the
world will find it out before he dies.
