How Sublime the Contemplation.

A Chicago clergyman taking ramble
on the lake shore with his son came sud
denly upon two young women bathing.
The preacher placed his big body as he
thought, in line to eclipse the view of
the girls and called the youngsters at
tention to two schooners in the distance,
under full sail thusly:
~ nnder is the most beautiful sight on
which the eye can rest.
Yes father, see them both" replied
the young scamp, covering his right eve
with his band for he had been taught
that such a sight would cause instant
blindness, yet determined to risk one eye
at all hazards.
How sublime the contemplation"
Yes, both CONCENTRATIONS are very
sublime
Did you ever see anything like it be-
fore?'
Never did; that takes the cake"
See, they are standing in shore"
Yes, | see; will they come on shore"
mo, of course not"
Il don't see why, for they are both
looking at me as they stand there facing
the shore"
You william! How dare you! Come
along here quick

MORE ABOUT THE BIDS.

The charges made by the LIGHT and
the Times Of this city that they were
unjustly Disseminated against in the
award OF the city printing one year ago.
seems to stick in the crops Of the Ex-
press, the city clerk, and his honor, the
mayor. The simplest tyro in figures can
cipher out to Trojan fraction, how
much the city would gain by awarding
printing at cents a line, as against one
hundred and eight lines for three cents.
If printing office knows that the cost
to the office lies in the first insertion
of an article, and that its reproduction
in subsequent issues is a mere matter of
paper and ink. The LIGHT in making
its bids for city advertising was gov
erned by this principle, put its price up
on the first insertion, and then offered
subsequent insertions at the mere
figures of ink and paper cost. The EX-
press offered the first insertion free,
upon which all the cost came, or nearly
all, and then charged nearly as much
per line for subsequent insertions as the
LIGHT bid for the first one. 1t was no
doubt this bid for nothing" which
caught the weather eye of those whose
duty it was to pass upon the award, and
the decision was rendered accordingly.
The ball is banked clear outside of the
string in the attempt to show any quar-
rel between the LIGHT aud the Times
in this matter. They both bid lower
than the Express, but neither could be
depended upon as AN ORGAN, and so the
great morning daily was corralled. The
LIGHT suggests committee of ten-year-
old school boys to cipher out the cost of
bids this year, they cannot blunder
worse, they may be an Improvement.

BY it's great national head, and foremost

example Of the loftiest self-sbnegation,
and shown a sense OF the gravity
of the situation as induced by republic

traducers and the uneasy heads within

The mugwumps are, Of course, outside
of the pale Of recovery under any cir
cumstanoes, and the only good that they
can possibly do the republican party lie,
TO make war upon it outside of the camp.
They have called themselves republic
cans and voted with the democrats long
enough to be naturalized in the camp of
the enemy, and If they will not take out
their papers as democrats, they should
be carried to the ramparts of the repub-
lican works and flung over the sea-wall

says "there will be nothing gained by

The pecullarities of the situation are the
number of names presented of men
equally eminent and worthy. The
question Is not so much one of fitness
for the place as the selection OF the man
who will unite all republicans for earnest

These words are timely and yet it Is
grave question II they would have found

candidate whose namination is looked
for a Chicago. The LIGHT will not cavil
ut the result because it is reached
too late to give the countay the services

UNIFY THE PARTY.

There Is q general feeling that the re-
publican camp must not wage inter-
nicene war. The cry comes forth from
the watchmen upon the outposts that no
ungenerous or unkind dealing with
political rivals of the same party will be
tolerated by the republican hosts. Al
ready has the republican party suffered
and the people with them over the IN
seemly jealousies and broils of aspiring
candidates. The party was defeated
four years ago purely and solely because
it could not grasp to the full the magni-
ficent craftsmanship and full proportions
OF the essential republicanism of the
man of Maine. Now that he has retired
from the field the demand is made
for more generous and manly
policy in dealing with candidates.
1t might be as true as it would be I'M
generous to say that this cry comes first
and loudest from those who have been
foremost in decrying the great states

victory four years ago had it not been
FOX the traitors within the republican
camp. If the party learns wisdom from
that failure, closes up its ranks and or

and do not care to work. They emphati-
cally deny that they have received any
orders to quit work and with such de-
clsration the company cannot do any
thing. The assertion Ia made through
the associated press dispatches that no
trouble has been engendered between
the Santa Fe road and its employees. and
this would seem to be borne out by the
fact that no explanation is given by the
men OF their action and that no one
seems to know anything of the strike,
or who or what caused It. The tele-
grams covering the transmission of the
intelligence are very brief and throw n o
lig hit upon the matter. They read as fol-
lows. and passed between Mr.. J. F. God
dard, general manager of the Santa Fe,
and Mr.. P. +. Conroe. chairman. griev.
ance committee:
'"To ]. F. Goddard:
1.-The engineers and firemen of the
Santa Fe system quit at this pm.
''P. Il. CONRoE.'
Mr.. Goddard transmitted this reply:
~ l.. SOuTOc, uIlCNduCc SOul-
ffittee:
SAT $3.50 this p IN. received your tele-
gram notifying that the engineers and
tiremen whom you represent would quit

action is a surprise, and | would be glad
to know on what ground 1t is taken;
also, do you intend that it shall cover
the passenger train service as we'll as
freight? -. f. GODDARD"
No reply has been received by the
company so far as the dispatches inform
the public, and the whole matter seems
somewh involved in mystery. The
Santa Fe road about six week ago en-
tered into specific agreement with its
engineers and firemen. This contract,
which W as very liberal one, SO far as
the rights and privileges of employees
were concerned, the company claim has
not been violated in single particular,
and the action of these men with their en-
gines is regarded by the road as direct
breach OF contract. 1t only proves that
the Brotherhood of locomotive engineers
and firemen are determined to win at
any hazard, and that the Chicago, Bur
lington and Quincy will very likely in
volve the whole system of western
roads in their difficulty before the strike
ia settled, unless they submit to the ar
duration which the Brotherhood has
proposed. The situation only empha-
sizes the need OF some legalized method
of arbitration, made compulsory upon
large employing corporations who serve
the country as common carriers, and for
this the aid of state and national legis-
latioD is invoked.

Immigration, Public Improvements,
Municipal and State Affairs
Discussed.
NEW ORLEANS, La, March IA, 1888.

Discussed.
NEW ORLEANS, La, March IA, 1888.
Editor LIGHT:
The people of this city, and in fact, of
the entire state, are evincing the most
lively interest on the subject of immi-
grafton. A state immigration oonven-
tion was lately held in this city, which
embraced delegates from nearly every
parish In the state, and some of the first
men iE the state were in this conven-
ton. Many fine speeches were made and
much gush INDUCED in, still many facts
were brought out to prove the adyan-
tsges possessed by Louisiana over the
blizzard accursed northwest. The city
press gave up their columns to these
speeches and also interviewed
many delegates who hsd made no
speeches. SO far as climate
goes any portion of the south ia far
ahead of the northwest for residence,
agriculture and stock raising. Many
farmers from Iowa are settling on Bayou
Teohe, and many northern men are set
ling in the FIorid parishes, east of the
Mississippi. An immigration conven-
tiOn ia in session now in Shreveport and
the entire people are earnest in pushing
the movement.
Why in the name of common
sense does not west Texas adopt
measures to draw immigration and cap
ital? But how go about this? Why
spread before the people in the north
information respecting the salubrity of
the climate, the price OF land, the pro-
ducts of the SOIL the accessibility to
market &C.? That is the proper course,
but to come back to this city and its
condition. The municipal government
is worse than q farce-it rises to the dig
nifty of a nuisance, it "does the things.
which il ought not to do, and leaves IN
done the things which it ought to do"
The municipal machinery is too complex
to work smoothly; the street commits
sioner is blamed for dirty and impass-
able streets, when the council has not set
apart money enough for street repairs
and improvements. The great need of
New Orleans is drainage; or rather,
some place to conduct surface rain into.
so as to prevent the overflow of the
streets after every heavy rain. The peo-
pie in the rear portion of the city a'e
flooded after every rain; the water is
two feet deep on the streets and yards,
and has to be pumped into the canal.
An active canvass of the state is now
in progress for the state offices. Gov.
Yarmouth is speaking In the interior
parishes. He is a far better speaker
than his opponent, Gov. Nichols. At
least 45 out Of the 50 parishes in the
state are republican, aud could a fair
election and an honest count be had.
Louisiana would be republican beyond
doubt, but such thing is not prObs-
bic. The sugar interest is decidedly
hostile to Cleveland's tariff Visws and
is quite Outspoken in the expression
of this opposition. The congressman
from this state side with the sugar inter-
terests. The tariff is the rock on which
the democratic party will 90 to pieces.
