do better during the rest of the week

Slang.

Where does all the slang come from ?
Children deal in it largely; yet it is not
born with children. But they learn to
lisp it before knowing its meaning. Why
parents should allow this is beyond com
prehension. No parent lives who, if not
educated and cultivated himself, does
not desire and in some degree expect
that his child will be some day Aud yet
how few are the parents who, hy using
slang themselves, do not constantly
teach their children this most slovenly
ofall intellectual or verbal habits. Chill
dren learn nearly everything they know
by imitation, and he has to be most re-
pulsive father who is not taken by his
child for a model. How can sIangy
mother expect any other results than
slangy children-and how can they ex-
pect otherwise, when they are people of
even moderate senses, than this vice
will have to be cured in school at great
cost of time to the pupil and effort to
the teacher, or else tina the child will all
his life be distigured and beitticl by it.
Why, then Should any parents be so
careless of their chillren'S interest or
their own pride a, 10 think of the harm
they are doing Them by using slang be :
fore thein--or why, If they do think of
il, are they so cruel as knowingly to
teach them in the vice"

.1oHN RRIGHT,S VISIT.

In one of his recent speeches LORD
Chief Justice Coleridge congratulated
his hearers, upon the fact that John
Bright had lately expressed his intention
Of visiting the United States. There is
certainly no Englishman for whom the
American people entertain more cor
dial regard than for John Bright. 1t is
not as an orator and statesman that the
people of this country chiefly desire to
receive him, but as our conntry's best
friend in time of National distress.
Soon after the outbreak of our war MIR.
Bright delivered an address to his con-
stituents in which he advised them mot
to believe in the destruction of the Amer
lean Union" and said: "From the very
outburst of this great CONFUSION L have
had but one hope and one faith, and 1t
was this-that the result of this stupend-
GUS strife might be to make freedom the
heritage forever of whole continent,
and that the grandeur and the prosperity
of the American Union might never be
impaired" There is no man in the Old
World whom the people of this republic
desire to welcome and honor more than
John Bright, and it is to be hoped that
Lord Coleridge will convey to him such
assurances of this fact as will confirm
him in the resolve to visit US.

PENSION ATTORNEYS.

Secretary Teller has shown his desire
to deal justly and not sharshly with the
pension attorneys by his last order. In
der the law as it stood it was in the
power of anyone by making charges
against pension attorney to disbar him
from practice while the charges are pend
ing. This worked manifest injustice,
since it proceeded upon the principle that
the accused were guilty until they were
proved innocent. Secretary Teller's
order is to the effect that those attor-
neys against whom charges are made
may continue in:practice until they have
a chance to be heard in their own de.
fence. While there are many rascals
and legal shysters engaged in the bust
ness of procuring pensions, there is also
a large number of respectable firms, and
it is but just that they be protected
against damage from interruptions
imputatious and charges upon which
they have not had the opportunity to be
heard.
There is evident, in the entire conduct
of the pension business be the executive
department of the government, a hearty
desire and an earnest purpose that the
funds appropriated by Congress shall not
be misapplied. Secretary Teller and
Commissioner Dudley have shown both
zeal and canton in CARVING out the law
The large balance remaining of the ap'
preparation made by the last Congress
shows with what care applicatio ms have
been scrutinized. 1t remains for the
people to lend their aid, in order to make
fraud impossible,

ONE illustration of the provocations Of
the rapid growth of prohibition sentl-
ment in Ohio is afforded by the Toledo
Blade, which speaks of one brewer in
that city who "boasts that he owns l34
saloons, and that he controls the voices
of the nominal proprietors and whatever
OF influence they may have. Counting
the saloon keepers alone and those whose
votes can be controlled by beer judi
ciously administered a week before an
election, this one brewer may safely be
estimated as having a voting power
equal to 1000 citizens engaged ia other
kinds of trade. The brewer makes poll
ties as much part of his business as he
does the purchase of hops and malt, or
whatever he substitutes for them, while
the other kind. of citizen merely votes

PROHIBIT THE PORKER.

The American hog. has been kept out
OF the German market by stern decree of
the man of Iron and Blood, on account of
alleged unhealthfulness. His revenge
has come soon and swift and sure. The
luckless Saxons are dying off by scores
from trichinosis contracted by eating
the truly German pig-the animal with
whose pecularties, Thomas Hood ac-
quainted English readers many years
ago, and whose ferceness and tleetness
of foot constitute his chief claim to re-
spect and attention.
Under these circumstances we do not
see that any other course is open to the
Iron Chancellor than to prohibit pork
altogether. 1t might be thought COM
promise could be effected by decreeing
that all pork should be thoroughly
cooked before eating, and by appointing
a staff of official inspectors to see that
the decree was carried out; but in Ger
many this would not do. Public opinion
in favor of the raw article is altogether
too strong.
The decree could not be enforced. II
the German were forced to cook his pork
before eating, the pblegmatic nature
would be stirred to it's Utmost depths
and a universal cry of ''Nein" would be
the answer to such daring proposal
Let the prince, therefore, prohibit the
pig altogether. His subjects might pine
away and die without its sustaining
nourishment, but what is that compared
to the principle at stake? He nigh
drive all pork and liberty loving German
to this country-as, indeed, in Othe
ways they are already driven-but never
must the decree against the American
hog be annulled.

THE NEW TIME STANDARD.
It's Adoption by Most CT the Railroads
in the United States.

To. morrow Sunday the new time
schedule will go into effect on most of
the railway lines throughout the United
States, and many of the cities and towns
also. the municipal authorities of Port
land, Boston, New York and Washing
ton having already agreed to adopt the
new standard, and the City Council Of
Baltimore having the matter under con-
sideration. Briefly stated, the basis of
the new standard is the division of the
whole country into four belts running
north and south, each of these belts
bell 15o of longitude, which is the
equivalent of one hour of time. in width
from east to west. Thus there will be
just one hours difference in the time of
any two adjoining belts. The eastern
belt, which takes in all the railroads in
this section begins with the 9th meri-
dian of longitude at PASSPORT. Me-, and
extends westward into Ohio, to the
boundary line between the eastern and
central standards. The central belt be-
gins in Ohio and reaches to Nebraska;
the mountain belt begins in Nebraska
and extends to Salt Lake City; the ives
tern belt includes all between Salt Lake
City and the Pacific coast. The time of
the first belt will be regulated by the
10Th meridian; that OF the second by the
Goth meridian: the third by the t05th
meridian, and the Pacific belt by the
120th meridian. Thus when it is -
o'clock at Boston, New York. Philadel-
phia, Baltimore or Washington, it will
be II O'Clock at Chicago or St. Louis,
10 o'clock at Denver aud 8 o'clock at
San Francisco.
The 10Th meridian crosses the Delaw-
are river near Tacony and passes some
20 miles eastward of the Philadelphia
city hall, consequently the hands of the
city clock there will have to be moved
up minute to keep the new time.
y great many people are under the
impression that the prospective change
includes the adoption also of a % hour
standard-that is. of doing away with
A. NJ, and p. NJ, and making our clocks
and watches record the hours consecu-
lively from l o'clock to "a o'clock.
Nothing of the kind whatever is contem
plated and no mention of the "a hour
standard appears among the regulations
adopted by the convention of railroads.
Only one road is known of as having
done this thing, the Cleveland, Mount
Vernon & Delaware railr rad, which has
been running on "a hour time since July
10Th.
On the p w. & B. railroad the new
standard will go into effect on Sunday.
and trains will DE run Que minute ahead
of the present time.
The United States Attorney General
has given an opinion that the heads of
the various departments, have not the
authority to order the adoption of the
new time standard, in their several de-
partments, but that this can only be
done by a law of Congress. He makes
the point that Congress has provided for
| the hours of labor in the executive de-
partmentS on the basis of time reckoned
from the meridian of Washington, and
to make any change or alteration, in
| these hours, such as would be required
under the proposed new time standard,
would be an assumption of the preroga-
| tive of Congress.
