Home for the Friendless.

In the Independent of Saturday
last, is a well-written and truthful ar
ticle in favor of this institution, from
which We take the following extracts
1t clearly shows the blessed character
of the work being done, and the wages
received by those engaged in it. We
commend it to the careful perusal and
and thoughtful consideration of our
fellow citizens
Poor women and children. passing
on railroad trains through this city
are often interrupted in travel to or
from their friends, by trains not con-
Meeting, or missing connections, and
these at all times of day or night are
brought to this refuge Of the poor. and
from this hosptable abode, none such
are even turned away. Now while the
city is thus benefited by having the
expense of providing for the poor, but
often worthless females, and innocent.
helpless children, fed and cared for
by this Home, what does the city do
for it in return? Let US see The
Home prevents a vast amount of
wretc hedness and suffering. 1t thor
Oughly reforms many poor soul, and
thereby prevents an increase of female
vice. Again let us consider. The
Home has manifold Offices to perform.
First, it is refuge for the poor, but
virtuous unprotected female wayfarer,
and helpless children. Second. it is a
reformatory for the ruined outcast,
the victim of mans lust Third. it
isa city female prison. The city au-
thorities give compensation for care
or board of female prisoners, the usual
expense and no more. The township
trustee pays also for care given the
poor, as he would have to pay any one
elsewhere for the same care. The
County Commissioners Appropriated
one thousand dollars of county funds
in the Home-hence the Home only
takes persons to care for who are en-
titled to care by the county or town
ship authorities, without any certain
source of pay for board All others,
from other counties or States, must
have some person responsible for their
board, if they stay longer than as
transient lodgers in the institution.
But for the transient wayfarer. or the
female tramps. the lady managers have
only the generous public, or Divine
Providence to look to for any certain
adequate support, and heretofore they
have not looked and trusted in vain.
But what does the city do for all this
class? The answer is nothing. 1t is
true that the State has wisely enacted
that all fines arising from violations
for visiting houses of ILL., fame, must 60
to female reformatories Ii is not by
city ordinance, the city does not
give it. it is by State law.
The Home for the Friendless is
regularly incorporated institution. and
Is without sectarian or party bias. and
is free and open to all entitled to its
protection. and as such should be
honored, protected and cherished by
our citizens. without regard to name.

For months past the country has
been flooded with appeals for re
lief of the grasshopper sufferers
in Kansas, and peripatetic agents
soliciting aid have been but little
less numerous than the grasshop
pers were alleged to be. The
cause was good one, and the case
demanded action. There undoubt
eddy was much suffering; the char
ity so literally bestowed from many
parts of the country was sadly
needed. But the Kansas Legisla
ture has just taken a step which
will go far to disgust the public and
to dull it's ear to these reiterated
appeals for relief Notwithstand
ing the fact that the State of Kan
sas has handsome balance in her
treasury and her finances are in
good condition, the Legislature
adjourned without appropriating a
dollar to aid her own suffering
citizens. Certainly no more APP
l,ropriate use could have been
found for at least portion of the
surplus fund than to properly dis
tribute it among her own suffering
people. It is difficult to conceive
of the meanness which could in
duce Legislature to withhold
such an appropriation, while con
sci0us that other States were being
ovorrun with agents begging for
supplies au'l getting liberal respon-
ses. The Kansas Changers are
evidently of the opinion that chart

In speaking of the next eubernato-
rial contest in Ohio, and the proba-
bilities that Allen and Wade will he
the competing candidates, the Pitts
burg Gazette says:
with Ben. Wade as Republican
candidate for Governor Of Ohio, we
will have contest that will fairly test
the strength of the parties in that
State. Allen will probably he the
Democratic candidate. and he and
Wade have peculiarities and popular
ity of a similar order. Wade long,
honest, and distinguished public ca
reer made him very popular with his
party. and he will probably poll his
full party vote. On the other hand,
Allen is strong with the Democracy
and will gather up his entire party
strength. Thus the contest will be a
particularly vigorous one.

grand scale-eveh in providing thc
means of intoxication and the Times
furnishes US with some rather start
ling figures upon the subject. Ac
cording to a recent article, the licens-
ed saloons in the city amount in round
numbers to 1900, graded from $3.50 to
$50 fees per annum, and yielding last
year a revenue to the munic. patty O.
1927 $50 The average daily receipts
to keep up with rents and other heavy
expenses cannot be less than $50.
Probably that is q small average, but
it represents daily total Of $40. 600
per day paid for drinks. Carrying
this through the 365 days that make
up the year, and we have an alcoholic
aggregate of ISL 100000. But in ad-
dition to these licensed saloons which
are taxed for their privileges, there
are at least 1000 unlicensed saloons
in New York. which will bring the
total expenditure for stimulants up to
more than $65, 700 900, or a fraction
over 500 tor every man, woman, and
child in the metropolis. Of the 500
grade of licenses there are 1858,
which mark the places frequented by
the poorer classes in search of spiritI-
Gus liquors In addition to these,
there are 2,05S places that took out
ale and beer licenses only, at $50 each.
and they are the resorts OF persons of
moderate incomes. 1t is estimated
also that four cut of every six dollars
