AN EDITORS PALACE.

The magnificent residence on Madi-
son avenue and Fiftieth street, says the
New YORK Sun. in which Mr.. and Mrs.
Whitelaw Reid will take up their resi-
dence in a few days, approaches more
nearly to the accepted idea of a palace
than anything that has ever been built
in this country, and in comparison with
il the residences of Vanderbilt, Astors,
and other rich men are very ordinary.
The marbles and agates, with which
floors, walls and ceilings are thickly
studded, make the entrance hall and
the grand suite of apartments on the
first floor cold and cherries in their
grandeur, perhaps, but magnificent
beyond anything on this side of the
Atlantic. The principal staircase is OF
Tennessee porphyry, similar to the one
in the capitol at Washington. The
living rooms are of necessity princi-
pally on the second floor, and here
marble gives place to walls of cedar
inlaid with mother-of-pearl, and other
decorations so unique and so costly
that they recall Solomon in all his
glory and the temple that he built at
Jerusalem.

The severity of press censorship in

Americans have any adequate idea.
The Leyant Herald of October Ii
comes to us with the first column OF
its editorial page a total blank, a V
for the announcement that its article
on the events of the day had been sup
pressed by the censorship. As the
Herald is probably the most influential
journal in southeastern Europe, the po-
tentiality of Russia in thus controlling
the censorship for its w purposes
can readily be appreciated.

NEW YORK'S LABOR CANDIDATE

The vote cast for Henry George in
New York City is engaging the anx-
ious attention of politicians of both
great parties at the present time, and
various are the surmises expressed rs
to the strength Of a third party in
elections to come. Georges vote came
mainly from the Democratic party.
This is conceded by Democrats gener-
ally. The unexpected strength of
Georges following makes il extremely
probable that George will be made
the labor candidate for president in
1888. A number of Republican
papers predict this, and with great
satisfaction declare hat George
will poll a sufficient number of
votes to give all states in the north
considered doubtful to the Republicans.
While the Democratic press acknowl-
edges that Georges principal following
is taken from the Democratic party, it
is trying t. convince itself and the
country that all these Democratic votes
will come back in the presidential cleo
tion-that Democrats will not be fool
ish enough to throw away their votes
upon a candidate who will have no
chance whatever Of election. That the
supporters of George are SO numerous
as to badly muddle those who have
been figuring on New York's vote in
the next presidential election does not
admit of doubt.

The Willingness OF thousands of men
to take the place Of the Chicago
strikers shows that the organization of
labor is still far from complete. 1t
should and undoubtedly will be carried
on until all the toilers Of the country
are completely banded together SO that
when a just demand is made, it will
come with the moral effect of II solid
and uncorquerable organization. The
order of Knights of Labor appears to
be altogether the best form for such or
%ganization.

Practical Education.

Some of the best ladies' seminaries
in the country not only teach cooking
and marketing as a part Of their regu-
lar course, but also give instructions in
dress cutting and millinery. Cassell

ces the latter department of study
in its prospectus. 1t is interesting to
note that while the movement to teach
the more practical branches Of knowl-
edge in cur public schools has made
but slow progress, the idea has made
great strides in development among the
better class of seminaries.

A brief stay in st. Adams last week
gave the impression of beautifully
laid out town, an unsurpassed location,
an unusual number of fine private res
dences with ample, well-kept grounds,
and the best made streets of any town
of its size in the state. Not the least
attractive feature of the town is its
large hotel fronting on a shady park,
while view of Lake Champlain with
its valley and the mountains beyond
from the higher parts of the town is
one of rare beauty and in some re-
spects unsurpassed anywhere.
