RUSSIA oR ENGLAND-THE AFFIRMATIVE.
FRIENDS OF THE CLUB: I fully convinced
that III the event of war between the two coun-
tries our sympathies should be extended To Eng
land. In fact, know our sympalhies should be
extended most cordially TO England What spSciid
benefit have we ever received from Russia! Take
the other hand of it, and what in this world have
we except Englsnd produced it? Ali the young
correspondents who have written upon this have
forgotten that IN the colonization of the earliest
colonies England took the lead in showing
freedom OF thought and speech They forget
that the majority of our ancestors were from Eng
land; that the sons and dang ghters of Eng
land. And because away from home 10
have greater freedom and more liberties. and be-
cause We were punished for So doing. these young
writers seem to think we ought TO he In sympathy
with an entire stranger. whuse examples have
never benefited any one. They forget that England
has extended her sympites 10 Us in our darkest
hour of trouble when our first man IN the political
shot down. O, for shinei-Newell

FRIENDS OF THE CLUB: 4 am panied and humi-

while il benefits labor only three per Where

Since inventions the poor have TO depend on
their chidrens earnings. When inventions are
