How rhe World Went Right Along

A bear who had made himself be-
lieve that he had the worst luck of
any animal in creation, was crawling
through the woods one day, when
he met q serpent, who inquired

that the world was turning itself

stricken people had come to him
with tears in thelr eyes.
Much to bruins surprise the night
passed like all other nights. No one
appeared during the forenoon to

passed without an earthquake or
tornado
He momentarily expected the adj

to come back 70 the world and have
faith and confidence, but the crowd
didn't show up. After a long and
hungry night bruin began to weak

The Car a. Temperance Reformer

Russia has decided to take her
part in the great international cru
sadie against alcoholism" The
plan OF the campaign, as arranged
10y the Muscovite contingent, is un-
doubtedly characteristic, and il will
be rather difficult to reconcile it
with the principles OF the Golden
Club. The anti-alcoholic war i to
be conducted in Russia on the lines
OF benevolent autocracv. not on
those of constitutional law. There
is to be no such western and heret-
ical process as local option, and the
battle Is To be commenced by bat
tering down all our Occidental theo-
ries of free trade, open competition.
and survival Of the fittest In other
words, the Gar has personally or
dered all the people to become tenn
perate He has backed up this NOR
al command by q further order that
no Russian village shall be allowed
to have more than one public house,
and that when two or three villages
lie within easy reach Of one an'iher
they are only to bePermittedt TO have
one common drinking house between
them. 1t is not quite clear to Us
why thirty men may not as readily
get drunk side by side in one build
ing as If they were divided into
three groups OF ten men in three
different buildings. The two provis-
ions laid down for preventing drunk
enness in the one licensed house
are curious enough. Firstly, the
host Is TO sell spurious liquors at
such a price that be can derive no
profit out of them We suppose.
therefore, that he viii have to en-
courage MS customers to become
great eaters, as be must perforce get
profit out OF something. Secondly,
if be permits drunkenness or his
premises. he is to be fined, to lose
his monopoly, and in atagrant case
to suffer Imprisonment.

WHAT BEAVER REPRESENTS.
There are serious financial and
revenue questions essential to the
prosperity of the people appealing
to dlspasslonate reason and patriotic
impulse for solution, and recent
hasty and narrow international leg
islation indicates the Importance of
clearer conceptions of the claims of
humanity and a quickened realiza-
ton of the spirit of liberty on which
our Institutions are founded. In
the face of broad questions like these.
personal contests sink into insignif-
cance and are unworthy of the con-
sideration of a craftsmanship to
which is committed the care of rap
ldiy-swelling millions of people.
II, however, personal cOnsidera-
tions are to determine the choice of
State rulers, then in all fairness the
claims of the candidates and not the
hate OF some of their friends should
decide the result. We concede to
the several candidates all the per-
sonal worth claimed by their
friends.
But General Beaver, in addition
to presenting to his countrymen the
example Of a Just and honorable
life, has given the highest possible
pledge of fidelity to his country in
civil life by Drawing death and Civ
ing portion of his body and the
life of a younger brother for it in
war. Long as the virtue of patriot
ism remains an honored impulse a
grateful people will not fail 10 recog-
nize the claims of a soldier so terr-
big manned in their defense.

MY CHMDHOOD'S HOME.

Upon the mountains western steep.
Far out among the pines,
Where winters blast was wont to sweep
Der hills and dark ravines.
Where rolls Moshannon's sparkling stream
And Clearfield's waters glide;
Where Sylvan gods were wont to dream
Beneath the hemlock's shade.
There, 'mong those wild, wild mountail
glens
Where roamed the fox and deer,
Where wolf and bear within their dens
Were neither wild nor rare.
There, years ago, my father reared
His cabin, rude and plain
And. toiling hard. he slowly cleared
The land, home to gain.
That spot. where once my parents toiled,-
Where first ! saw the Light
Than all besides on earth to me,
'Tis precious in my sight.
True, it can't boast Of mansions fine,
Nor fruitful, fertile fields;
No gardens rich with jaSsamine,-
No luscious fruit it yields
A plain old barren heath it seems,
Where weeds and cinquefoil grow,
But, oh, old home of childhood's dreams.

A VERY CAUTIOUS DEPARTMENT

a curious illustration of the extreme
caution observed occasionally in govern
mental proceedings, has just appeared.
Some time ago resolution was introduced
in the House of Representatives, asking
the President to appeal to the Car for
protection for the Russian Jews from
mobs. Nothing having been heard of this
resolution since its introduction, the Con-
gresham who had introduced it made in
quiries at the State Department, and
learned that instructions had been for
warded to the American Consuls in Russia,
directing them to report whether there
"was any truth in the stories of the out
"rages perpetrated upon the Jews" Now
nobody can blame the State Department
for wishing to have complete assurance of
the facts, bnt it is nevertheless evident
that in this case caution has been carried
to a ridiculous excess. For it is certain
that during the past year the press of En-
rope ard the United States has fairly
specific narratives of these prosecutions
that they have been the subject of Parlia.
mentary inquiry and discussion in Eng
land that English and American journal.
lists have visited the disturbed districts,
examined the situation carefully, and writ
ten detailed accounts of the facts as they
found them that the Russian Government
has not only never attempted to deny the
outrages, but has tardily endeavored to
atone FOR its apathy by pretending to arrest
and punish few of the most audacious
ringleaders OF the mob and, finally,
that hundreds of Russian Jews, the vic.
tins of this persecution, have entered
the United States recently, and are at
hand to vouch for the reality of the out.
RACES. In view of these facts it certainly
does appear somewhat singular that the
State Department should have considered
it necessary to send instructions to our
Consuls in Russia, to ascertain whether,
after all, there had been any outrages. In
fact this strikes us as an instance of official
old. fogyism for which it would be diff.
cult to find parallel. The theory is that
the United States Government, not pos-
sessing official information regarding these
outrages, cannot be supposed to know that
they have occurred, and that therefore it

THE QUESTION OF CHINESE COMMERCE.

The Nation observes "that no part of
'the Presidents argument is more weighty
g than that in which he points out the
enormous folly of which the Pacific
" slope will be guilty if it auarrels with
"China or alienates the Chinese. The
"opening of the East to Western trade is
Z" the greatest feat in the more recent CON-
"mercial history. There is fair prospect
that within very few years the traffic
"both of Europe and America with Asia
twill reach dimensions as yet undreamed
" of and China, owing to its natural re-
" sources and the character of its popula-
" ton, is likely to be the best market IN
-" Asia; and, what is perhaps more to our
purpose, the Chinese are likely to do the
Largest part of the business of exchange
"between the East and West" All this
is either ignorant or irrelevant. In the
first place there is really no foundation
whatever for the assertion that any consid-
cradle increase of our trade with China is
pr obable. In the next place, according to
the economic doctrines which the Nation
itself believes and teaches, no such consid-
cradle increase of trade can possibly occur
while the American tariff is what it is.
In the third place, even supposing that
the alleged increase of trade was as GER.
tain as it is uncertain, it would not COM
pensate in any way for the supplanting
of American citizens by Chinese in all the
mechanical, agricultural, mining and other
occupations which the latter are capable of
filling. We are surprised to find so intelli-
gent journal as the Nation falling into the
vulgar error that trade advantages are the
only ends TO be sought, and that if they are
secured it matters not at what sacrifices.
The simple fact is, however, that our
esteemed contemporary has most super
fetal grasp of the whole subject, and that
therefore its reasoning is weak and its con.
illusions ridiculous. We who have ex-
perienced it know that the evils of Chinese
immigration enormously overbalance any
conceivable advantages to be gained from the
extension of intercourse with that country.
We also know, what Eastern journals can.
not understand, that the commercial cues.
ton is entirely separate from the immi.
grafton question, and that we may suspend
immigration without touching the Chinese
trade at all. But if it were necessary to
surrender the last remnant of it we say
the sacrifice would be light in consideration
of the benefits to be gained by putting a
stop to this barbarous invasion.
