GENERAL WALKER, the Super
intendent of the Census, has recently
called the attention Of statisticiaus to
the fact that in 1850 the Irish peol L.
formed 43 5 per cent of total foreign
population, but now form only 81 rs
per cent; that the English, Scotch
and Welsh have maintained their
population during the three decades,
while the Scandinavians and British
Americans have greatly increased.
In 1850 the Germans formed nearly
one third of the total foreign p"pula-
ton, and in 1880 they formed 80. 5
per cent. 1t would be interesting
could some social science gentleman
90 into these statistics and tell us
what political an = other changes the
fluctuations in immigration have
made and speculate for US upon the
change in national tone and DRIFT
would be made by the gradual dlmi
mutton of the Irish population in com
parisun with German, British and
Scandinavian.

PRINCESS AID PEOPLE.

1t 10 \ matter of congratulation
that during the trip OF the Marquis of
Lorne and the Princess Louise across
the continent there was less toad yism,
though perhaps more curiosity,
throughout than was anticipated.
Only at Niagra Falls were any extra
ordinary attentions shown the royal
visitors, and even at that place a
powerful curiosity doubtless led to
many acts taken for, and called, noted
exhibitions of exceeding Difference.
The American people must see any
curiosity on exhibition and it matters
not what it is-from princess to an
elephant, from millionaire to an
aesthetic. Wealth aud station dazzle
even the severely simple minded peo-
pie of the United States. They are
disposed to regard millionaire or
princess as made of finer material
than ordinary mortals. Though the
tendencies of the age are to the level
ing of all distinctions, it will take
many years to destroy the power of
wealth, station and title, and establish
an honest man in their place as he
70 and object of veneration or envy,
such as are titled personages gener-
ally.

is safe in making any pledge which
he thinks will attract support to him,
as tor its non observance he has only
to answer to his own con science. If
the law took charge of primaries and
conventions and placed delegates and
candidates under oath prescribing a
suitable penalty for perjury or breach
of faith to their party great msny
of the corrupt methods of defeating
popular will would be rendered
impossible.

THE PENSION ABUSE.

The enormous pension list is an
actual abuse which should be rem
edied, Both parties in seeking the
soldier vote aided in this drain on the
public purse and neither unless it
was the Democrats derived any bsne-
fit. AS it is now a majority of the
pensions granted are to soldiers
whose claims are based on their abili-
ty to prove that they made very poor
soldiers. There of course many de-
serving pensioners but Of this class
nearly all received their allowance
years ago. Those who are now APP
plying belong to that class ofchronic
sick whose illness usually came on
Immediately before march, battle
or other dissgreeable duty, aud which
illness was too frequently assumed.
Those men are row making affidavits
that they were sickly while in the
service and that they contracted a
chronic disease emitting them to a
pension. 1t is easy for them to pro-
cure affidavits Of witnesses to the
effect that they were scarcely ever
fit for duty, and that their very in
efficiency and unwillingness while
in the service gives them an advan-
tsge over the soldier who went ahead
and did his work. 1t is possible that
even now a few of the deserving
soldiers are applying for pensions,
but by far the Crater number OF ap-
plications are from men whose pres
snt physical conditions as sworn to
by themselves, conforms closely to
the character implied in the coarse
name applied to them by their &C.
quaintances.

Love in the Country.

Soon the season will be here when
the rural beau takes sweetheart and
treats her to gum drops, oysters or
ice cream. After rambling about all
day, the lovers return home at night
happy, but thoroughly worn out
and perhaps sick. On all such &C
casions a gentle dose of Swayne's
Pills should be taken to insure a
healthy system for the ensuing day.
They prevent the approach OF illness,
and stimulate the digestive organs
to a sound condition.

The next Legislature can do
the State some service by enacting a
lay taking cognizance of primary
elections. 1t 10 seldom that y pri
mary actually determines the choice
of the party as there being ne legal
restrictions members of the opposite
party can vote. There being no pen,
atty, those who are not citizens can
also take part, and in populous elec-
ton precincts INSCRIPTIONS partisans
can deposit more than one ballot.
Active workers can thus easily defeat
the will of the party and place in
the field candidates who are not the
real choice OF a ms ority. An unpop-
ular OF sn unit man may also sue
ceed in obtaining the nomination
through the popularity Of delegates
who favor him. The people as a rule
are careless in such matters and will
often vote for or against delegate
from motives of personal preference
or dislike, entirely ignoring the tact
that in so doing he may be voting
against what he wants to see done
by tn convention. The present man
ner of conducting conventions is al
90 in need Of revision. Pledges can
be broken by the delegates owing to
the custom of voting by ballot, with
out danger of detection. While

few days ago: ~ never do anything
for cold; just wear it off, That is
exceedingly dangerous; one might do
that 10 times and the goth time the
cold would settle on the lungs and

In the Times of last evening appeared a
statement decidedly tishy, evidently written
by some one while in state Of mind which
rendered the writer thereof wholly irrespon
sible for what he did say. The Times wen
on to say that the reporter for that paper
put on one of Fiske IL Beem's overcoats and
walked around the street with it and obtain
ed various guesses as to its value, half doz
en- or so placing values at from SlS to S25
which was probably nearly correct. The re
porter goes on to say that the price OF the
coat ie only fee dollars! Now here is where
the evidence of the Times "Irresponsiblity'
comes in. No coat can be made for any such
price as that The idea of half dozen ex
perts being unanimously mistaken! 1t is
quite certain, no matter how cheap Fiske &
BEEN may be, that they cannot sell an over
coat for IS, much less than for 90. so, which
the same reporter says another overcOat car
be sold for, which has the appearance OF be
ing $50 or sos coat. Why, the tailors II
their employ get 81 or s. for making the
same coat, and then to sell for IS, or ever
So. so! The Times man ought to reform. Tt
see what an exaggerated yarn he has toll
everybody ought to call at Fiske Il Beem's
and examine those same coats. Don't take
the word of any irresponsible" newspaper
man, but 20 and see what falsitier the
Times really is.

year, delightful to both old and yonng-spec-
tally 60 to children. Once more, too, Waltz
er's has been made Santa Claus headquart-
ers and distributing depot for this section OF
country. No one in the past has been able to
perform this srduous service like unto
Walther. His is Santa Claus home par er,

- ever, filled with the good things, the pref
ty things, and all the curious things that the
heart Of childhood delights in. Here they are;
and on Saturday next will be formally shown
to all the world IN holiday arrangement. Ev-
erybody knows there is then to be treat, for
Walther never does anything by halves, and
everybody will be there to see the display.
What Christmas would be without Walther
