one Of the chief sources of its prosperity.
Enlightened States admit no stint of means
in the management and administration of
this invaluable service. We we'll remember
a time when the postal service OF the
Uniti states, seeking to establish colnmu-
nicatiOus between the Atlantic and
Pacific coasts, and between widely seperat-
ed territories, not then connected by rail or
telegraph, spent dollars for the transmission
of a single letter, on which only a few cents
were charged and merchants of San Fran
cisco gladly paid the sum Of five dollars for
a letter from New York per PONY Ex-
press" We must not be niggardly in the
management Of this beneficent service, and
whether a district or an Office pays or not,
the Government should see to it that this
service il as We'll provided for in the most
sparsely peopled corners of the Kingdom, in
the matter of effective administration as in
the busiest and mt o populOus portions. If
any extravaganza is allowable it is in this
service. Not a single letter or paper should
be allowed to go astray, or be mis-sent, and
if an instance Of failure should be pointed
out the whole force of a well-administered
service should be engaged if necessary,
in tracing oil any error IN transmits
sion, and in forwarding the missive oil
the poorest man in the Kingdom TO its des-
tinatiOn. Let us have the close, watchfuI
system and the exact service established by
n Rowland Hill, and We now cheerfully com
mend the views of our Rowland Hill.

WE are glad that certain parties connect

country, have organized a stock company
entitled 1.-The Planters Labor and Supply
Company" and have subscribed capital to
carry out, i'm Thorough business way, mea-

Company" and to grant their charter.

OUR esteemed contemporary is somewhat
anxious for fear the public purse may be
put under a strain" in providing for the
INDECENT sick, or more especially the lepers
of the country. Now inasmuch as no med
zeal or other we'll informed authority of the
county, will stimate the lepers in the is
lands az more than 1000, and they can be
cared for, he says, including all charges,
for So per head per annum; or say the sum
of S1O4, 900 for the year. And an editor
breads his strain, whose friends i'll the
Government have recently spent several
hundred thousand dollars of public funds
with comparatively nothing to show for
the expenditure. We do not believe that
the most careful investigation of leprosy
will sho v over 1900 cas+s in the Kingdom,
and that one hundred thousand dollars, or
less, will provide for this sad misfortune of
the country. Therefore, brother, do not
strain at only one hundred thousand for
the help of the unfortunate and perhaps in
durable sick and swallow several hundreds
of thousands wasted on bad roads, rotten
ships, ill-judged architecture and junketing
abroad, without a grimace.

Making AcQuaintances.

From the New London Conn } Telegram.
Two gentlemen of business lived
on the came street. They were not
acquitted. The formal process of
introduction had not taken place,
and Of course they could not speak,
for that would be forward and inn
proper, you know. These men pass
ed each other three times day usu-
ally, for seven years without look
of recognition. One winters day
they met suddenly on a slippery
corner. The feet of one went astray
suddenly, tripped the others and
their owners rolled over and over
down hill until checked by the gut
ter. Apologies were exchanged,
hands shook, and the two men be-
came acquainted. The reader may
help himself to the moral. Another
story points in the same direction.
A pocket-book was found and left
where it could be obtained by the
owner, who said, when he was told
who found it: 81 know who he is
very well; l have seen him a great
many times, and ifI were acquaint-
ed with him | would thank him.

The Old Folks At Home,

When, in the late autumn, we at
tempt to take up one Of the plants
which have grown luxuriantly in a
garden bed, we find the danger to its
life, in transplanting, is not so much
the injury which it's larger roots re-
ceive, as the smaller ones, which are
like little fingers reaching every
where. There is q strange likeness
to this in the uprooting Of a life
which has for years been living in
one home. There is nothing sadder
than to see the old father and moth
er give up their independent life and
become inmates of q new home with
their children. This changeis often,
If not always, urged by sons and
daughtres from the purest motives.
They feel that the care of housekeep-
ing, the oversight Of a home, are too
great burdens for father and mother
"Come and live with U.s." they say
'and take life easy" But few, in
deed, are the parents who can adjust
themselves to the new relations, and
they find after q few months that
they haze . peculiarly homeless feel
ing. They seem 70 6t in nowhere.
They mics thu, neighbors and all the
little nameless associations which
helped To I'll mp the measure ofthcir
days. Tlicy realizes as they mover

The Dakota Boom.
Chicago Inter Ocean


The enthusiasm over Dakota seems
to exceed even the California fever
in the days when gold was first disc
overed. From all parts of the east and
west come tidings of preparations to
move into the great territory: From
some places enough families arc 60
ing to start villages on their account,
with their old neighbors at their
doors. There will be many disap-
pointments, no doubt but the Ger
tainty is much better than in the
California exodus for here the gold
lies just beneath the surface on ev-
cry acre, and, though requiring labor
and transformation to make it avail
able, is much more likely to be found
in the shape Of wheat, than in the
original ore whose discovery was so
much question of chance in "the
glorious climate Of California"

Not long ago we were told of a
young man in Indiana who was on
his way to commit a burglary, when
he wandered into a church to kill
time, became conscience stricken,
made full confession of his sins,
and surrendered himself and his kit
to q sheriff who happened to be at
the prayermeeting. Now we have

immaterial. You must be prepared
to rise from your bed as early as 10

finished reading your private mail
by noon. Lunch is always paid for
by the Office, but you haye got to
accustom yourself to but five courses

much exhausted by the effort you
can have game of billiards, for no
well-regulated newspaper office is
without well-appointed billiard
room.
At Z p. m. you are expected to tell
the city editor where you will spend
the evening, so that he can send for
you in case your friends call, and
then you can go to the theater, ope-
ra, TALL or dog-fght, to which tick
cts and carriage will be provided
Ifyou think you can stand such la
borious work, come on and we will
see what we can do for you; but
you must understand that there is
none Of the luxury to which you
have been accustomed, in a newspa-
per office. Plain, velvet carpets are
good enough for this class of labor
ers; lounging chairs are of course
indispensable, but they are uphol-
stored in plain satin with no tides.
Only one roll-top desk and four gold
pens are furnished by the office, if
you need any more you will be ex-
pected to furnish them yourself.
But one sofa and one silver drink
ing cup are allowed to each man,
so you can see there are some dis
comforts to be put up with.

Progress Of the Panama Canal
Springfield Republican

The building of the Panama Ca
nal Hospital, at Aspinwall is an om-
nous sign, but, in view of the fact
that 70 canal officers and 1000 men
have died up to date, it would seem
that not only a hospital, but a large
cemetery, gang of sections, corps
of ministers and a well-appointed
coffin factory were needed. The
frightful rate of mortality among
the laborers does not appear to dis
tress the company seriously, but it
denies the loss of rs officers. How
ever, DIR. Cornqualles, surgeon of
the foreign hospital, swears to the
truth Of the figures, and q consular
certificate, with the data sworn to,
corroborates them. Not shovel of
dirt has yet been taken from the ca
nal proper; and, since so many men
have died in the preliminary work,
the estimate by man on the spot
that 10000 will be killed before the
canal is finished does not seem to be
extravagant. The French excava-
ting machines have proved even less
efficient than the Jamaica negroes
and their shovels, who, working for
France at 10 cents an hour, have
such an annoying way of dropping
Oft. So the canal company has con-
tracted with an American to exca-
vate 100000 cubic meters through
the swamps from Aspinwall to Ga
tun, at the rate Of 80 cents meter
1t will take six months to build the
first excavator, and digging car
hardly begin until late in the year
