How Miss Anthony Secured Allies.

According to a reporter of that city,
Miss Susan b. Anthony left st. Louis the
other day for Leavenworth with, two
medium-siyed trunks for baggage At
first the baggage-master objected to
check them both ON single ticket, and
demanded pay for extra weight. /" But. +"
said she, - they together weigh less
than the ordinary sized Saratoga l

posely to save the man who does the

credulously. "And you tell me serious
" that you do this simply out of con
sideration fol the baggagemenP" 81
do" "How long have you done it?'
"All my life. never purchased large
trunk for fear might add to the over
burdened baggageman's Affections. :"
The clerk walked off and conferred with
the head of the department. Then the
two returned together. "Do l under
stand" said the chief, "that you of all
women have been the first to show hui
manty to railroad peop,e?' THAT is
the tenet of my creed. ''Check that
baggage" said the chief, with emphasis;
"and when you run for Office, Miss
Anthony, YOU shall have my vote"
"Mine too" echoed the clerk, handing
her the checks, and the trio parted
happy.

livered effort from the text: God so
loved the world She divided her text
into several practical applications,
speaking of the world of business. the

glowing language the insincerity which
underlies much of the modern society

the necessity of an earnest, vital,
wholesome religious spirit. Mrs. Howe $

KNOCKING AT THE DOOR.

The claims of Dakota to be admitted
into the Union of the States are being
vigorously pushed. The Republicans are
all for and the Democrats are all against.
The former are inspired by the prospect
of two additional Republican Senators
and a Congressman of their own sort.
This is the whole story, as far as they
are concerned. The people of Dakota
prefer to continue under the Territorial
form Of government, and have petitioned
the powers that be to that effect. But
then they do not know what is best for
them. The Democrats are opposed to
the admission, because there ia nothing
to commend it. The proposition to ad-
nit Dakota is an entirely partisan Job.
This is a good and sufficient cause for
Democratic opposition. Hence, it need
not be further stated that also they
really entertain other motives for their
opposition that are of a higher and
broader sort. A statement to this effect,
however, is unnecessary for Democrats,
and would possibly be questioned by Re.
publicans. Ii one reason is ample to
account for a motive, you may weaken
your argument by giving two.

BLAINE OF MAINE.

After sharply and closely Analysing ex-
Secretary Blaine's evidence in his own
behalf before the House Committee of
investigation in the great guano fraud,
the New York san recapitulates in the
following bitter peroration:
When we consider the total failure
OF the witness to explain his advocacy Of
the Landreau fraud. or to show any war
rant from Mr.. Garfield or Garfeld's Cab
met, or Mr.. Arthur, for his INSCRIPTIONS
diplomacy, we are amazed at the inso-
lence with which Mr.. Blaine pretended
to believe himself exculpated, and de-
manded that Mr.. Belmont should retract
an expression, every syllable Of which
was justified. On the other hand, we
are not in the least surprised that the
examiner, who had borne with admirable
s~elf-command the railing and hectoring
which mad continually done duty for
testimony, should have been stung be.
yond endurance by the impertinent de.
mand, coupled as it was with an insinu.
alton Of untruthfnlness. Nor, under the
circumstances, can we chide Mr.. Bel
mont very sharply for bestowing on Mr..
Blaine the epithets which faithfully de-
scribed his conduct on the occasion. 81
believe you" said he, "tobe a bully and
4 coward" They were bitter though
truthful words, and some persons might
feel disposed to resent them; but the
friends of peace need entertain no mis-,
givings that the man who thoroughly de-
served them will not consent to swallow
them. The plumes of the so-called
Knight of Maine have long been pretty
well bedraggled and identified with the
pinions of a barnyard fowl; and what
manhood he had was sacrificed when he
goveled at the knees of the grim custo.
dian of the Mulligan letters.

THE VERY RICH MINES.
What Becomes Of Them and Why
They Peter.

What becomes of all the Thousand dol
lars a ton" mines that are discovered
every year? At what mills are the ores
worked that carry these high percentages
of metal? Scarcely a day passes hat we
do not see in some journal that the lucky
prospectors, so and so, have found a claim,
the ore of which is very rich, and goes
away up in the hundreds or thousands.
The strange thing is, it is not the erich"
mines, but those with plenty of ore that
pay. If the ore will pay a fair profit over
and above expenses the mine is apt to be
very much more profitable than when a
few tons figure high up in the thousands.
Mines with many ton of rich ore are all
phenomenal. They occur so seldom that
they are scarcely worth taking into account
in prospecting. Of course, we naturally,
when hunting for a prize, want the biggest
one there is to be had; but we ought not to
pass by a small one in looking for a large
one. Claims with ore assaying away up
in the thousands, very seldom produce
much of it. After one discounts the
selected specimen, for what an average
would be, and discounts the assay value
" Nv icdi Naiue, huu tHe real value
from what it will mill, we find we have
brought it down considerably. 1t is not
best, therefore, for men to be too ~sanguine
when they hear of high-assaying rock. 1t
is true, a long array Of figures on an
assayer's certificate has a charm for many
and produces an excitement it is difficult
to overcome. But even the most self.
deceiving %prospector will acknowledge to
himself that the figures are safer on paper
than if brought to the test. He will trot
around and try to sell a mine for a price
that a dozen or two tons of the presumed
rich ore would yield. If miners will but
consider the subject, they will remember
that the most famous mines which have
paid their millions are those which have
yielded abundantly of an average ore; and
that these mines last longest also. The
thousand-dollars a. ton claim does not last
very long.

.coop SPECULATION.

Senator Fair has been interviewed at
Washington. He gives a very PLAIN but
graphic description Of the Chinese on the
Pacific Coast. The vigor and homelke
simplicity of his words will cause his in
terview to be read by thousands through
out the country who otherwise might get
no practical idea Of the evil that we are
complaining so much about. His little
oH-hand talk is a great deal better than
many an elaborate speech. But there is
one part of the reported interview with
orr Senator that we do not quite under
stand-in fact, that we do not under
stand at all. His opinion is that Mr..
Arthur's good sense will induce him
to sign the ten-year Anti-Chlnese bill.
Uncle Jimmy understands men thor
oughly. He may have thrown out this
bit OF sop for a purpose. In balancing

lest Senator of the United States may
have all atom OF weight upon the Presi-
dentisl mind. But in his veto Of the
twenty-vear bill Mr.. Arthur's objections
were chiefly, first, that to restrict Chi
nese immigration to the United States Is
to discriminate against China as a ma
ton in a manner contrary to the spirit Of
orr Constitution and laws; and secondly,
that on the ground of policy, it would
be injurious to our industries to exclude
Cinnamon, because we need their cheap
labor. In these respects there is no diff
ference between the first and second
i-Chinese bills. As Rice of Massa-
chusetts said, if he does not veto the
resent bill he will cat his own words.
1t is possible that he may take to this
ordinarily unpalatable diet, buff he does
it will be on account of the electoral vote
of the Pacific Coast. We still hold to
the belief that Mr.. Arthur will not sign
the bill. We believe he has q good sup
ply Of backbone. Moreover, he will be
braced up by all New England and the
great majority of the Republican party
besides. He is also between two fires.
HIS veto will make him a few more enc.
mics on the Pacific Coast, but his sigma.
ture of the bill is likely to hurt the Re
publican party more in the East thar

the proper thing to do. The test of the

but the anti Chinese talker who means
what he says will vote against the party
controlled by the Arthurs, the Hoars, the
Edmundses, and such like. Every Re-
publican victory in California now will
be an Endorsement of the veto, and of
the vote of the Republican Senators for
Chinese naturalization. The only effective
