THE ARBITRATION BILL


 The arbitration bill which passed the house Saturday was apparently passed on the theory that something ought to be done, and that the bill might be wise as any which could be made. The original bill gave the award of the board of arbitrators the charac- ter of a judgment by a United States court, to be enforced by the same officers and in the some way es the judgment of court; but the bill as passed does not give tho award the force of court decree. It simply pro- vides the means of arbitration in case of dis putes between railroad companies engaged in interstate or territorial commerce and their employees at the expense of the United States when both sides agree to that method of set- clement. The compensation of those taking part in the proceedings, including witnesses, is limited to s1 ,O00 in any one case.
 If this bill becomes a law it will probably make no great change in the situation. Peo- pie can arbitrate now if they choose, though the United States will not pay their expen- ses. It may be that such cheap arbitration as the bill provides for would gain some pop ularity on account of it's cheapness. The ex- pertinent is worth trying. The New York Times makes suggestion which IS worth considering in this connection. It says: If we had a government permission to super wise the regulation ssof interstate commerce it might be made to serve very useful pur- pose in connection with these troubles be tween railroad companies and their en- ployes. The commission, composed of men familiar with the business of the railroads and the conditions affecting the workmen, might we'll furnish one of it's own number as the third member of the board of arbitration in each case. He would be at once compe- tent and disinterested, and those are qualif cations which it will not be at all times easy to secure. And the commission itself might be able by it's inquiries and recommenda- tions to do much to prevent disputes or bring about an adjustment of grievances without such contest as would make arbi- tration necessary. This furnishes a strong argument in favor of establishing national railroad commission.
 There ought to be some way to avoid such foolish and wasteful strikes as that which has been going on in the Southwest. Arbitration by law might work well in many cases.

Boycott the Boycott.


 The boycott is two-edged weapon, and in 99 cases out of 100, it must boycott labor much more than capital. In 19 cases out of 20 it is simply farce, as men of ordinary manhood will always buy and sell as suits them best, regardless of arbitrary orders, and the general result of the labor boycott is simply labor boycotting labor. It is mod crate estimate that fixes the losses to labor this year, by reason of the paralysis of in dustrial enterprise by labor disturbances, at thousand millions of dollars. There were a million men idle last year by the general depression in our productive industries, and the loss to labor and to the consum ing power of the country was not less than five hundred millions. This year, when the season opened with in- creased confidence that promised the diffu- sion of capital into industrial channels and enlarged employment for labor, labor has foolishly boycotted itself by driving all capi- tai out of industrial enterprise that can get out and by postponing all Improvements that are not absolutely indispensable. Thus has labor boycotted labor fully thousand mil lions for 1886, and when will the confidence 50 wantonly destroyed be restored and the channels of industry again send out enlarged demands for labor? We appeal to intelligent workingmen to boycott the suicidal boycott ters who are simply making labor boycott la- hor

The Health of Clergymen.

Dr. W. A. Hammond in Hom1letfc Review.
 It cannot be said with truth that the clergymen of this country are, as 8 class, in the enjoyment of ordinary good health. I do not mean by this statement to imply that they suffer to any extreme degree from nor tai or even severe diseases, but I do intend to be understood as saying that their general mode of life is such that they are affected with many of those minor ills which, if they do not directly shorten life, certainly do their full share toward making it a burden to its possessor.
 There are three chief reasons for this un- fortunate morbid pre- -eminence:
 1. Clergymen are oyerworked mentally.
 2. They are underfed.
 B. They do not take sufficient mental and bodily recreation.
 In an article like the present it is of course impossible for me to consider any one of these heads with even moderate fullness of detail; can only glance at them very super fcially, and must refer those in search of more ample information to work on the 'Diseafes of Sedentary Persons" that I hope soon to have ready for publication.
 1. If clergyman's duties were limited to the usual Sunday services, it could scarcely be said with truth that he is overworked; but, as is well known, these constitute. in
  tion of the mental labor he is called upon to perform. There are few congregations that do not have more than one week day service often very injuriously in the night-and often they take place every day. Then there are charitable associations of various kinds to organize and keep going, and frequently a spesies of labor that more than any other exhausts the nervous energies-the collecting of money for church purposes from persons who have to be argued with and persuaded to give of the means with which Providence has blessed them. have known several clergymen to break down utterly under the strain caused by the ill success, the worry, the anxiety, the modification, and other kinds of emotional disturbance incident to money begging. and to suffer for years with head symptoms and nervous dyspepsia
 Then comes the parochial visiting, often performed because it must be done, and therefore doubly disagreeable and influential in disturbing the mental equilibrium. This visiting is not by any means recreative, as 1t generally is with the lay members of society, but is the occasion for mental work of peculiarly harassing description-the con sideration of plans for church and charitable labors, the answering of thousands of silly questions, the hearing of numberless com plaints and items of gossip, and the giving

He would have made an incomparable lawyer before jury; be would have been prince of bunco men. His tone has the ring of honesty to it. He is not obtrusive. What he says, he says with vigor that is not in his words themselves. He does not declaim, he does not parade the personal pronoun. Yet every word he ut tered in this presence where chanced to be had influence in it. The men who com prise with him the Knight of Labors general executive board are believers in him to the fullest extent. There could be no mistaking the meaning of the glances of approval tha t followed every statement be uttered And one of them said to me: eff there by any misfortune could arise an issue in the order which none of us believe is at all possible-if there could arise any issue in the order be- tween MT.

Powderly's Conservative Views.

spent an hour in company with Grand Master Workman Powderly, of the Knights of Labor, night or two ago. He was at the Astor House in conference with his or der's general executive board, and on his face were signs of many cares and anxieties. He did not attempt to conceal his regret, not to say open disapproval, of the way in which certain subordinates have directed the big railroad strike in the Southwest. He eyi- dently recognizes in Martin Irons cheap man disposed to make the most and the worst of his temporary authority as the head of district assembly" On this point MT.

CHAs. A. CABRERA, 39 Hawley Street,
 Boston, Mass, writes:
 "One year ago I was apparently so far gone with Consumption that my life seemed only question of days rather than months. With my faith in the ability of physicians to help me all gone, I tried almost every known remedy, with no apparent benefit. Finally, last resort, I was induced to try Dr. R. c. Flowers Lung Cordial. The very first dose gave me relief, and with the first bottle took a new lease of life, and can honestly say to-day that one spoont.d of this remedy is worth more to the sufferer from Lung troubles than gallon of any other known remedy. A bottle of it is now one of my choicest possessions, and at the first symptom of cough or cold fly to it for the relief it never fails to give'
 DIR. FLOWERS LUNG COR- DIAL is without question the most wonderful Lung remedy ever discovered. It eradicates the germ of CONSUMPTION as no remedy has ever been known to do. It stands without a rival for COUGHS, COLDS, BRON- CHITIS, ASTHMA and CON- SUMPTION.

The British occupation of Burmah has been a good thing for Mandalay, according to the Times of India. The palace is being altered with the aid of an army of Burmese and Chinese workers, who are paid every day, much to their surprise, and under the present plan of ready money trade has so re- vived that Laughing and cheery faces are everywhere" Huge bazaars have sprung up and the streets are lined on both sides with sellers of fruit, vegetables, etc. The palace moat is being drained, the dirty fioorings being pulled up in the palace itself and the rooms thrown open so that fresh air can sweep through the building. The Golden Pagoda is turned into Church of England place of worship and pretty little English cemetery has been laid out. The roads all around are cared for and strong flank de- lenses for big guns are built outside the pal ace gates commanding the approaches for half mile.

Modern Romanttef.,n.

Frederick Henry Hedge in Atlantic Monthly.l
 A marked feature of modern romanticism is love of the past, that passionate regret for by-gone fashions which prompts the attempt to patch the new garment of to-day with the old cloth of former wear. The feeling which, early in this century, found inspiration in medieval lore, and loved to present the old chiyalrics in novel and song, is the same which inspires the practical anachronisms of recent time, which in England seeks to re- produce the old ecclesiastical sanctitiss, which astonishes American cities with mimicry of Gothic architecture; the same which 40 years ago restored the long-disused beard, which now ransacks second hand furniture stores and remote farm-house for claw-footed tables and brass handled bureaus, which drags from the lumber-room the obso- lete spinning wheel, which rejoices in many cornered dwelling houses with diminutive window panes,-the more unshapely the bet ter because the more picturesque. A mania, innocent enough in these manifestations, but in it's essence identical with that which in spired the knight of La Mancha, the typical example for all generations of romanticism gone wild.
 It would be unjust, however, to maintain that the reaching back after old things is the sum sum of ronantieism if what we so name name AAASAS worship of the past is only an accidental manifestation of a principle whose most comprehensive term is aspiration; a noble discontent and disdain of the present, which, in the absence of creative genius, of power to originate new forms, seeks relief in the past from the weary commonplace of the day.
 The essence of romanticism is aspiration: Whether it look backward or forward, there is in it a spirit of adventure; as much of it in the crusaders who sought sepulchre in the East in the Spanish navigators who sought an Eldorado in the West; as much in the Arctic explorers who would force way through eternal frost as in the Knights of the Holy Grail; much in the 10th century as in the 18th, in Gsribaldi and Gordon as in Godfrey and Tancred.
 The romantic schools of German and Eng fish literature were transient phases already outgrown; but the principle of romanticism in literature is immortal-it is the spirit serting itself through the form. Classicism gives us perfection of form, romanticism fullness of spirit. Both are essential, seldom found united, but both must combine to con- stitute masterpiece of literary art.

 There are some honest men left yet. A young Englishman arrived at Hamilton, On tario, several months ago destitute of money and friends. The mayor, after investiga- ton, gave him money and the Young Mems Christian association helped him. By and by he got work. He paid the mayor the money he had got from him and left with him like amount for the next unfortunate who might need it, and he paid the Christian association people for every bit of food he had received at their hands.
 An English inventor comes forward with 8 plan for a hollow steel float eighty feet square anchored in mid-ocean and bearing @ light tower sixty feet high. He would have this known as a harbor of refuge in distress or a place for transmission of ship news by tele- graph and as weather station. The saving of cost in cable telegraphing alone by the use of relay instruments on the Hghtship would, in his opinion, be sufficient 70 pay the current expenses. He undertakes to pro- vide secure anchorage, stability and harm less dsflection of waves.

Prosnec,s ar thc blair Bill.

There Is a good deal Of talk about the
bill in the House The opponents OF the
bill say thatit will be reported unfaVora-
bly, by the Committee on Education. and
that an unfaVorable report will defeat 1t.
1t was said frequently that the bill
would never pass the Senate. 1t, how
ever, passed that body by a very large
majority, and it is certain to pass the
House, whatever the report of the House
Committee on Education may be, If its
consideration can be secured in time
to permit it to be thoroughly
debated before adjournment. In the
Senate the opposition from the South was
not as strong as it was claimed it would
be. The Texas Senators opposed 1t Of
course. Their State has an ample school
fund, and it has no need OF aid for its
schools. Missouri is also very well pro-
Vided with the means for maintaining her
schools. Those States, however, whose
treasures were empty At the close Of the
war generally favor the bill, and the Rep
resentatiVes from those States will con-
suit the wishes of their constituents as
the Senators did.
1t can be regarded as pretty certain,
therefore, that the Blair bill Will become
a law. If it does the schools for both
white and cOlored children in the South
will be kept open several months longer
each year than at present.
The amendment of Senator Logan,
appropriating 100000 for school
houses, is an excellent one. The school
houses in a great many parts of the South
are not equal to the demands upon them.
With the aid which the Blair bill will af-
ford, the time is not distant when the
South will be able to make a very respec-
table showing in the matter of education.
