A Boston newspaper man says that
Greenough's statue OF Franklin 10 that
city is worth studying, because 1t Illus
trates theory for which the sculptor had
the authority OF the great physioguomist,
LaYater. II Is that each SIDE OF the hui
man face represents different phases Of
human nature, man being dual animal,
with a double set Of characteristics. On
one side Of the bronze face of franklin
Greenough has depicted the expression
OF the man OF science who drew the light
ming from the clouds; on the other he
has represented the features of the au-
thor Of the homely philosophy embodied
in Poor Richards Almanac.
A French musical journal says. Dit

The army of claimants who annually
march into Washington while congress is
in session will hsve at least one new re-

was recently removed from the postmss-

an offensive partisan, denies the author

announces his intention to take his case
! into the court of claims. He bases his
claim on the constitution Of the United
States, ana intends to sue the govern
ment for salary, which will not be due

Chauncey Depew, who was sent abroad
by bis railroad company to avoid the

THE Philadelphia Record, one Of the
staunchest defenders of the workingmen
in the country, says of Mr.. Georges can
didacy for Mayor Of New York: "The
question OF Mr.. Georges capacity, how
ever, is one thing, and the propriety Of
running any man as a Labor candidate, is
quite another. There Is no occasion, in
our opinion, for labor party in this
country, no chance for 1t, and no use for
1t. The people who do the work also do
the governing. They can mould either
of the parties to their uses. II they
wanted to make Mr.. George the mayor OF
New York, why did they not 60 to the
Democratic primary meetings and elect
delegates to nominate himi There would
have been good sense In such a proceed
ing; but third party will be nzzle.

WHEN there was a prospect OF mis-
understanding between Mexico and the
United States, the papers found con-
siderable fun in the fact that Texas could
at least supply the needed quota OF OH
GERS. They little knew the foe with whom
they had to contend; Mexico derives all
her military knowledge from Spain, and
being apt at imitation, the statistics OF
the Spanish army show 1t would have
been colonel meet colonel, and SC

GERMAN IMMIGRATION TO AMER.


The approaching session Of the German
reiehstag is looked forward to with much
interest by Germans, because It is known
that the government will ask tor mate
rial increase in the force of the regular
army. The military establishment Of the
empire IS already immense, but it Is not
large enough to meet the views Of Chan
cellor Bismarck, who is really the govern
ment. Germans ask themselves where
this policy is to end, II al all. There can
be no doubt that the military policy Of
the German government accounts for a
very large proportion of the immigration
from that country to the United States.
The young men dread and shrink from the
long period Of military service exacted OF
them. The whole country is 6
camp, and every able-bodied man.,
whether rich or poor, must be soldier.
The service il arduous and exacting. II
the empire were at war and needed their
services, the young men would no doubt
view the matter with greater cheerful
ness. But Germany is at peace with the
world, and her vast army, like the armies
of FEW other European governments, is
maintained as menace to neighboring
powers, and to the Germans themselves.
In England or the United States young
man reaching his majority is at liberty to
choose the avocation he prefers, take him
a wife and enjoy domestic life. In Ger
many and Russia he has first to perform
his military service. At an age when men
wives and little children, busy building
up the competence that is to make old
age honorable and comfortable, the Ger
man is spending his days in barracks and
st fortified posts, doing the tread-mili
routine of soldiers life. The Germans
are educated, intelligent people, and fond
Of domestic life, and it is little wonder
that the great military establishment
and the long service is distasteful to and
unpopular with them. II they remain al
home there is no escape from this iron
rule. immigration and expatrlatlon are
the result. It is altogether probable thai
II the government were to cut down its
standing army and rely solely upon vol
untary enlistmerts, as Is the case in the
United States and Great Britain, German
immigration to this country would be
come much less than 1t is. Prince Bis
marck has adopted policy that furnishes
the United States great many usefu
accessions to its population. The Ger
man is sometimes a socialist, but as
rule he is conservative and makes al
Industrious, orderly citizen.

A NEW ELEMENT IN Politics.

Outside OF Tennessee, where two broth
ers are waging friendly and Interesting
contest for gubernatorial position, the
mayoralty campaign in New York City
win enlist as much general attention as
any of the elections to occur this fall.
Kelly and Thompson, the leaders OF OPP
posing rings in Democracy, are dead and
buried and the war cries Of Tamnany and
Irving hall are not heard nov In New
York politics. The Democrats will be
united this time In their choice Of may
or and the Republicans will, as usual,
have their candidate ID the fleld. The
element of interest does not consist In
Democratic or Republican rivalry, but in
the labor ticket, headed by MIR. Henry
George. II is the first time thatlabor, in
the greatest metropolitan city outhe con-
tinent, has made an organized, nasterful
effort to ascertain Its strength and cspac-
ity for a distinctiyely labor movement
The step is measurablY experimental and
1t was rather audacious policy that select
ed New York as the scene of the test.

political economy, is well Known to

his teachings are as familiar to and
as popular with Germans of a social

Americans labor movement, headed
by man who has advanced such views on
land ownership and wages as Henry

event is even more significant. 1t should
not be supposed that either the Demo
cratic or Republican nominees can van
quish Mr., George with case. Labor II
admirably organized In New York, and ii
disposed to act on the offensive rather
than the defensive. Every trades unioI
is at once transformed into campaign

but large in the aggregate. There vii

show that workingmen are enrolling thei
names as George voters, and deserving, 10

have heretofore affiliated, to max
this battle for labor. II Mr.. Georg

A TRIPLE ALLIANCE.

The chances Of a European war would
seem to be averted by an alliance Of Eng
land, Austria and Germany. 1t will not
be supposed that such alliance would be
formed on account OF any friendly rela.
tons existing between the three great
contracting powers, however, but purely
for selfish motives and to provide COM
mon protection against Russian sggrss-
sion. The most significant phase OF the
present situation is not the onward
march Of Russia towards Constantlnople,
because this has always been the policy
Of the czars, but ii is England's reported
change of policy in withdrawing her pro-
lection from Turkey. Ever since the
Crimean war it has been the English
policy to protect Turkey against invasion
by Austria or Russia, and but for this
British protection Turkey, az nation,
would long since have ceased to exist
England will not change front without
definite purpose; and security In India
or supremacy in Egypt, or both, is, per
haps, the consideration for change o.
policy with reference to the "sick man
of Europe" The problem is full

CoEsUL-GRNERAL HEAP (not Uriah)
representing this government in Constan-

and being destitute OF the cardinal virtue
Of humility, resents it. The grievance
WAS that Great Britain, Russia, Germany,
Italy and Turkey sent delegates for the
purpose Of framing new tariff, and the
Turkish delegates did not deem it neces-
ssry that the United States be represented
In the conference, although he had noti'
fed them OF his appointment. Whereupon
he writes to the secretary OF state detail
ing the whole affair. 1t Is to be hoped nc
complications will grow out Of this, as

nary has not been happy.
