BEECHER \ WELSHMAN.

1t has come. 1t was expected. 1t could
have been prophesied, but this prophecy
would have been almost too cheap. 1t is
out. Yes. Mr.. Henry Ward Beecher has
turned out to be a Welshman. 1t is
characteristic of this charming fraction of
Great Britain that its inhabitants claim
all good things as their own. Mr.. Beecher
is particular bonnie bouche, and has ac-
cordiugly been claimed. 1t is notorious
fact that Napoleon was WelshmaH, and
Alexander the Great, and Mr.. William E.
Gladstone, and John R. Rogers, and-but
space torbids their enumeration. 1t IS
even whispered in the principality that a
certain ancient gentleman, commonly
known as Adam, lived, if the truth we're
told, beneath the shadow of Plinlim-
mon, and that his genuine name was
Allwryddpwallaram-a name which, for
conscience sake, was somewhat syncopat-
ed by less aboriginal mouths. We learn,
then, that Mary Roberts, who left Llandde-
wache-etc. for America in 1876, was the
greatgrandmother of the distinguished
preacher. All this is as it should be-
Henry Ward Beecher had long been sus-
pected of beirg of ancient descent; and
his Welsh origin now discloses the tact
that he Is even of princely lineage. Inns
will doubtless explain the otherwise mex
plicable high price which H. W. B, places
upon the opening of his mouth. Religion
falling from high born life is manifestiy
quite different thing from the ordinary
pastoral of the noncomformist shepherd
Welsh mutton, Welsh rarebits, and other
Welsh dainties have their fancy prices,
and so have the discourses of a welsh
minister, who has travelled all the way
from America to sky-pilot the British

REPUBLICANS AND THE BLAIR BILL


The republican platform enunciated at
Waco, besides being one of the weakest,
most wishy-washy political campaign
documents extant, is also one of the most
contradictory. This brilliant ebullition of
republican brain sets out with the declara-
ton that the party, now run by Cochran,
Burkhart, Kline and other bosses goes be-
fore the people in this campaign on state
issues only. Yet, almost in the very next
breath, the Blair bill is endorsed, praised
and defended.
The inconsistency is equal only to the
sOphistry and braZen cheek with which
tie republicans, through their new state
platform faunt in the faces of the people
of Texas the praises of measure begot-
ten by republican brains.
Not only so,but engineered by republican
duplicity and designed by the republican
machine as an instrument TO stir up party
strife and sectional hatred. for the benefit
of Mr.. Blaine. John Sherman and the re-
publican party in the north. The rspub-
licans of Texas are fully as much aware
as the democrats of the unconsti.
titutionalIty of the Blair bill as the
baneful anu ultimate effects OF its execu
ton in the south, should 1t unfortunately
become law. They know the denun
citation of the bill by Judge Terrell, the
other night at Weatherford, as wrong in
principle, and dangerous in practice is
true, every word of it. Yet, in fixing up a
platform like the Waco piece of timber, the
republicans have shown what we knew be-
fore-that they CAGE nothing whatever for
principle or the good of the state or peo-
pie when votes are to be had.
The championing of the Blair bill by
the republican party of Texas, is of a
piece with the former career and history
of that baneful, dangerous and unscrupu-
lous party in this state. We all remem.
Der that history too well to be again
hoodwinked by either its hypocrisy or its
Establishments, on the Blair bill or any.
thing else.

scME POSSIBLE HEDGING.

The New York Tribune has worked it
self into a frenzy over the fact that there
is a prohibition ticket in Maine this year
It charges that the democratic party has
bought up the prohibitionlsts to put out
ticket in order to draw votes from the
rank and file of the republican party. If
the republican party has'no the intrinsic
worth and the right principles to hold its
supporters against all tickets in the tiel d
then it had better lght fire with fire and
try the same tactics by putting up tick
ct which will draw from the democrats.
It would seem from the Tribune's
confession that the republican party
is not the first love of number of its ad-
herents. but they merely take it in lieu of
their own party, because the democrats are
too good company for them. The Trib
une says it does not fear that the demo-
Gratis will carry Maine, but there is chance
that there will be reduction of the ordi-
mar puOllNtall LAAAJpAAtJf "'4+S- ~ ASuA'
will be taken as quasi Endorsement of
Cleveland's administration. This far
slghtedness does credit to the head of that
great republican daily, and in order to
prevent the said supposed Endorsement it
should have tickets printed showing
whether or not any detection from
the republican ranks is because
of their confidence in the
democratic administration. But, taken
all in all,this suggestion of the Tribune to
hedge against a possible reduction of its
party vote is a very sharp piece of politi
cal sagacity. If there is a falling off of
the republican vote it can point with
pride to the fact that its prescience had
'orseen the result, II that party holds its
OWN, it will be a wonderful victory over
intrigue aud finesse. A great
lead that!

WAGES DEPENDENT ON PROFITS

"When Senator Coke brought up the
question of watered stock the News drew
attention to the law of wages under the
actual industrial system. The same OBJ
servation will apply to Mr.. Terrell's the
DRY that if freight charges were reduced
the workers would get better wages. Wages
depend upon the demand for labor, and
the supply of labor under actual condi-
tions, and not upon the amount of money
the employers are making. Whether the
companies are rolling i'll wealth or max
ing only running expenses they must pay
for labor what it is worth in the market,
and there is no necessity that they pay
more. This is the main principle in the
case. OF course, the payment of divi-
dends upon fictitious capital, if not made
TO the prejudice or at the sacrifice of
creditors, would deplete the resources of
the whole laboring people, not particu-
larry affecting the persons employed in
the industry where the fictitious capital
was engaged"
In the above editorial the News seems
| to overlook the fact, that the wages of
the laboring man above a certain standard
are dependent upon the profits of work
the north, when trade is dull and the sup
ply exceeds the demand, the wages are re-
duced, and when trade is good they are in
creased. This has become the rule
throughout the Union, with few exceptions,
and, in fact, there are few factories
where the hire is in an exact
proportions to the profits, making the
wage Garner quasi partner in the bust
ness, and these have but little trouble
| with their labor. As a rule there is mar
ket value on labor, but it depends upon
the prosperity of the employer of that
labor. But by careful examination of
the statistics of manufactures in this
country it will be seen that those employ
ers of labor, who do not regulate the
wages paid by the supply or demand of
labor, out upon just estimate of ser
vices rendered have less trouble with their
laborers. 1t is useless to say that if a
laborer is not satisfied with his wages he
is free TO leave his work because the
laborer being such large element in this
country is not so independent that hi
can find work whenever he is idle
So that If railroad, or other corporation
conducts its business upon plan of pay
ing tor labor what it is actually worth an'
not for what it can be gotten, the wage
paid will be dependent, in a great name
upon the profits of the business done
This is not a dreamers idea, because
has been proven by actual experience t.
be correct. If a laborer is poorly paid, h
is not the only one that suffers. 1t is hu
man nature that he should make it reac
on the cause of the poor remuneration 70
his services, and in the end the employe
who depends upon the needs of labor i
the sufferer.
The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1886-09-16

was based on a conversation with a gen
tleman from Toledo, Ohio, where the sys-
tenn had been tried successfully. St. Louis
is the first place where the system was
tried. but Baltimore is the first place
where it was tried in con
nection with the public school system, and
it has proven eminently successful. 1t was
established there in March, 1884. The OBJ
/ ject of the school, as taken from the pub
lie school report, is as follows: "Instruc-
ton and practice in the use of tools, and
such instruction as may be deemed ueces
sary in mathematics, drawing and the
English branches of high school course.
The tool instruction, as at present CON
templated, shall include carpentry, wood
turning, pattern making, iron clipping
and filing, forge work, brazing and sol
dering, the use of machine-shop tools,
character as may be deemed advisable to
add to the foregoing from time to time,
it being the intention to divide the
working hours of the students as nearly
as possible equally between manual and
mental exercises" The course of study as
above outlined requires three years, and
at the expiration of that time the student
is entitled to graduate and receive di-
ploma. No one can fail to see the good
resulting from such a system.
In the first place many students cult
vate habits of physical Incidence
not at all conducive to health,
which either start them out on a
students career with no health to
stand the work, or else lay the founda-
ton for diseases which prove fatal soon
after leaving school. In manner ath.
letic exercises prevent this from happen
ing in many cases, but there are
few schools where this is en-
forced and many studious minds dislike
leaving their studies for exercise, from
the mistaken idea that it is so much time
lost but in the manual training system
the exercise and the study are so Joined
together that the interest in one compels
the other.
Second, there is such glamour around
theory that it hardly looks like the found
alton of practice, and with this system
theory and practice walk hand and hand
Third, and this is the most important
reason, this system at little or no cost
gives fair education, and often teaches
the children of INDECENT parents a trade
which enables them to go out in the world
in sphere above the ordinary day i
aborer. :
These are but few of the reasons, and ;
The STATESMAN will now and then show
,ther attractive features of this system. {
