Emerson's Tribute to the Farmer.

The following worthy tribute to the
farmer is from the pen of Ralph Waldo
Emerson:
The glory of the farmer is, that, in
the division of labor, it is his part to
create; all trade rests at last on his
primitive activity. He stands close to
Nature; he obtains from the earth the
bread and meat; the food which was not
he causes to be. The first farmer was
the first man, and all historic nobility
rests on possession and use of land. The
farmers office is precise and important,
but you must not try to paint him in
rose colors. You cannot make pretty
compliments to fate and gravitation.
whose minister he is. He represents
the necessities. 1t is the beauty of the
great economy of the world that makes
his comeliness. He bends TO the order
of the seasons, the weather. the soil,
and crops, as the sails of the ship bend
to the wind. He represents continuous
hard labor year in and year out, and
small gains. He takes the pace of sea-
sons, plants and chemistry. Nature
never hurries; atom by atom, little by
little, she achieves her work. The
farmer ties himself TO Nature, and &C
quires that livelong patience which be-
longs to her; he must wait for his crop
to grow. fr ..ii'
His entertainments, his liberties and
his spending must be on q farmers scale,
not merchants. 1t were as false for
farmers to use a wholesale and massey
expense as for States to use minute
economy. aI 'H
He has great trusts con6ded to him.
In the great household of Nature the
farmer stands at the door of the bread
room and weighs each loaf. 1t is for
him to say if men shall marry or not.
Early marriages and the number OF
births are indissolubly connected with
an abundance of food. The farmer is q

A VETERAN SEAlAN'S TROUBLE
Editor Inter Ocean, Chicago, Ill.,: 1 send you this,
feeling that the information conveyed will be Of
material benefit to many of your readers One
of our oldest citizens, Captain G. w. BOyntOn the
Government Lighthouse keeper at this point, is
probably one Of the oldest seamen in America,

After this forty-six years service his eyesight
failed him and he kept the Light at Chicago until
the Government built the Gross Point Light here,
when he was transferred. While seated in my

following written statement: " This Is to certify

HUBBELL has a good deal of the frank
ness Of old Zach Chandler. Indeed, as
rule, Michigan n.ea DO not assume q
great amount Of political morality. He
makes assessments and boldly claims
that the powers that be will sustain him.
Curtis in replying to Hubbeil very wisely
shows the folly of appealing to Brewster
for decision Oh the legality of the ques-
ton of political assessments. Hubbell
in his circular states that the contribution
will not be objected to in any official
quarter. Brewster must then have ex-
pressed his approval OF the whole pro-
| ceeding and of course has prejudged the
case. The Civil Service Reform club
agree to take it before the courts and
have the matter tested there, Of course
Hubbell Will not agree to that.

JUSTIN MCCARTHY continues his letters
to The n. Y. Tribune on the Irish ques-
ton. The Tribune itself is hostile to
Irish interests, and its readers are also of
that class. In consequence it is good
medium for Mr.. Mccarthy to present
his views to the American people. The
Irish could not ask for better advocate.
He presents facts clearly and understands
the whole situation. The opposition Of
the Irish members to many of Gladstone's
movements which were apparently in the
interests of the Irish people, is placed in
new light, and in the light of subse-
quent events justifies great deal in their
conduct that al the time was almost in
explicable. Mr.. Mccarthy writes as
impartiaIly on the subject as it is possible
for any man to do, who has taken suffi-
cient interest in the matter to inform
himself fully with regard to it.

THE most absurd argument ever used
by protectionists is that :. is designed
mainly for the benefit of labor. This ar
gument was used so extensively in the
fall campaign of 1886 that laborers were
induced to believe it and voted accord
ingly. Now wages are comparatively
low, while everything the laborer needs
is high. In country as large as the
United States with it's various resources
labor needs no protection. The agricul-
tural resources of the country are almost
limitless and any attempt at cutting
down wages would soon create scarcity
that would restore them to the ola place.
Let manufacturers be frank and not use
so much cant about lsborers. They show
no love for laborers when they appear as
strikers.

HUBBELL, the chairman of the repub-
lican congressional committee, made an
assessment on all government employees
to raise funds for the benefit of the re-
publican party. George VIM. Curtis
, issued a circular advising the employees
not to contribute, stating that they would
by SC doing commit breach of law
This matter OF making assessments has
become so confirmed a habit that Hub
bell boldly proclaims his willingness to
appeal 10 the attorney general for decis-
ion as to its Legality. To save all trouble
of this kind, an annual appropriation
should be made foAeampaign purposes,
Or the republican party should have a
bill passed making Il obligatory on all
government employees to contribute a
portion OF their earnings toward keeping
the present party Ill power.

HE \. Y. Tribune wants to know
what good thing the democrats of that
state have done in years, and The Herald
answers by saying they bounced John
Kelley and thus showed that they loved
principle more than success secured
through such disreputable organization
as Kelley leads. But Tammany was
quickly adopted by the republicans Of
the state. Cornell welcomed the demo
cratic Coriolanus and he stands high with
his new friends, who place the scrietural

Temperance element in Iowa will be an
encouragement to the friends of the

There is but one way in which to stop
