lie Knows Where to Speak.

General Harrison has. since his
nomination.. been called upon by II
great many of his ardent Western
admirers, who insist upon speeches
and who are of kind that cannot be
put of. He has propably made
twenty five short addresses to these
visitors and has in this respect been
much more obliEiug than any Pres
idential candidate of recent times
excepting Grecly and Blaine, Yet
it is emincntly to the credit of Gener-
nj Harrison for good sense that he
has said nothing in these speeches
which has betrayed the slightest
tendency to be loquacious. With
out attempting to say brilliant things
ho has always had something pleas
ant to express in clear and terse
fashion, which shows that he values
language and knows how TO use it.
No one that goes over the little
spccchcs which he has been making
at indianapolis for the past three
weeks can fail to be impressed with
the tact and wisdom, which he has
uniformly displayed ON the most try

The Naturalized American.

A great deal has and can be said
with regard to immigration in Amer
ica That this country has received
great and lasting benefits through
this none need deny, while ON the
other hand good many of doubtful
character and habits, whose room
would have been infitely better than
their company have managed
through this loophole to slip i'll
among us,and their presence have in
many instances proved detrimental
to the interests of our citizens and
the institutions of our country; but
for all that we would venture to say,
If both were put i'll balance, the
good would largely outweigh the
bad. 1t is surprising, if we contem-
plate the fact, how so many of differ
ent nationalities, habits, and educa-
ton, can combine together in the
manner they have done, and present
such Il solid phalanx whenever the
peace and unity of our nation is at
stake, or any foreign power threatens
to encroach upon us. But too much
must not be expected or required
from the naturalized American. The
land that gave him birth will always,
naturally, have nook i'll his heart
and memory which he will Mt times
love to ponder over. The Irishman
will never forget the harp of Erin
and the green flag. the German will
admire his Bismarck and Kaiser
William, the Englishman will always
be ready to talk of Gladstone and
other celebrities of his country, and
so on through all the different ma
tionalities that flock to our country,
there will be something i'll the land
they have i'll II measure renounced,
to admire and holdin fond recollec-
tion. Said Byron. the renowned
poet, England with all thy faults l
love thee still. and this will natural
lybe the expression of every natur-
allied citizen of this county. Well.
after all there is no harm III it, No
treason to their adopted country
either i'll thought, word, or deed, is
intended. and, the sequel has prov
ed III the past that if this country is
III peril they are unit in standing
up III defence. The born Americans
have been generous III opening up
their borders and welcoming the
foreigner to locate among them, why
not let that generosity go II little
further and overlook their tenets
formed i'll the land of their birth, as
long as it does not intrude on the
principles of our government? OF
course the refusal to allow any other
than the American flag to adorn our
public building is perfectly right,
these are American institutions and
that flag only should float over it;
but there is II tendency among n
good many to grow impatient when
the German speaks cf the Father
land, or those of any other nation
talk fayorably of institutions of their
country. 1t is but n matter of time
until this dies out, and the next gen
Grafton that springs up come out az
full hcdgcd Americans.

EDUCATIONAL.

In an address recently delivered in England by Professor Huxley, he takes the ground that modern industrial ac- tivity and competition is simply war fare carried on under the forms of peace, and that the men or the nations who secured the victory in this warfare defeated their opponents by starvation. In other words, that all the new discov- cries in the arts and sciences by which processes or products of manufacture are improved or rendered cheaper, and which are generally regarded as blessings to mankind are, in reality, simply addi- tional or improved weapons by which the individual company or nation who control and make the best or exclusive use of such inventions or improvements, is enabled to more successfully carry on this warfare, and all the more easily and certainly intlict upon their competitors or opponents the penalty of defeat-star vation.
 This address was delivered in support of a proposed institute in which it is in- tended to offer to the youth of England the best possible facilities for obtaining technical training and education. The idea advanced by the learned professor was that, this condition of war being recognized, it was necessary to secure for herself the best possible weapons for waging that war, and that one of the most effective weapons was to be found in technical education.
 There is much food for thought in such a declaration, says the Al'lerican Mdchinist, coming from such a source, and it would be great satisfaction if we could deny its truth; but can we :? And if we cannot deny its truth, then it becomes pertinent to inquire if pro- gressive civilization, which carries with it such results, is worth what it costs, and whether or not it can continue to progress, if by its progress it intiicts such penalty upon those who are un- able to attain the victory.
 England has recently been meeting with reverses in this industrial warfare, and the penalty of hunger suffered by many of her working people, Suppose that, by means of the improved weapon which Prof. Huxley speaks of, she re- gains her lost ground, will it not be at the expense of other industrial armies, composed of human beings, who have claims upon our sympatnies
 Altogether it is a very gloomy view of the situation, but we have faith to be- lieve that better condition of things will be developed, and that civilization will eventually progress without the in fiction of such penalty upon those who may be surpassed in ingenuity and skill by their fellow men.
 | We have no theory to advocate to bring about this condition, but we think

as citizens and as socialists to vote what We consider to be for the best interests of the people. And, in view of the present enslavement of the working classes, it Is but natu raj that the Socialist Labor Party should exist for and especially advo- cate the abolishment of the system that holds men in slavery, and en- deavor by all means in their power to dlspol the darkness in the minds of those most interested, which pre- vents them from realizing the!r deg radiation.
 Since the thew departure" has been taken new vlgor has ap- peared, and it is now in order to push our work forward with re- newed courage and health to show that our work has been faithfully done, and prove it by an increased membership and an increased vote at the next election.

PARTY PROGRESS.
Try it.

The results Gin votes) of the So- cialist campaign show that the plan of mere propaganda, as practlced for the past ten years by the Social ist Labor Party has not been crowned with tangible success. That the number of votes cast for the Socialist nominees is an absolute and complete criterion of the prod ucts of the propaganda we do not assert, for there is little room to doubt that the Socialist agitation permeated many quarter from which no sign as yet is given of it's presence.
 But the practical man Is not sat lsfed altogether with this faith in the spread of Socialist ideas. He wants to see socialists who "mean business" and are ready to encour- age their fellow men by public dec laration of their political opinion. The man who tells us he Is a social ist and then casts his vote for an en- emy of the working people, doesn't amount to much as a socialist-in- deed, his deeds speak louder than his words, and we must judge him by his deeds.
 So We say that the purely propa gandistic plan has not resulted in furnishing tangible proofs of its eff cacy. We may even go so far as to assert that it was the political activ- ity of the socialists in Germany which gave us the courage to adopt the active political plan of agitation not, however, to the exclusion of the proselyting process through speech and press There is plenty of time for this always, but the op- portunity of recording our votes comes seldom. But when that op- rortunity does come, it behooves us

THE POWER OF WORDS.

The effect an advertisement has upon the reader is very well illustrated by the following as related in the Mechanical Ne,cS:
 A wealthy man who owns a country residence recently became dissatisfied with it, and determined to have another. So he instructed real estate agent famous for his descriptive powers to ad- vertise it in the papers for private sale, but to conceal the location telling pur- chasers to apply at his office. In few days the gentleman happened to see the advertisement, was pleased with the account of the place, showed it to his wife, and the two concluded that it was just what they wanted, and that they would secure it at once. So he went to the office of the agent and told him that the place he had advertised was such one as he desired and he would purchase 1t. The agent burst into laugh, and fold him that was a description of his own house where he was then living, He read the advertisement again, cogi- tated over the grassy slopes, "beauti- ful vistas, smooth lawns" etc., and broke out, ''ls 1t possible? We'll, make out my bill for advertising and expenses, for, by George l wouldn't sell the place now for three times what it cost me-"

DANA'S LIQUIDATION.

When a party deliberately buries out of sight the principles on which it was founded, and of which it has been for century the custodian and trustee; when it sends some of it's best men to the rear and surrenders the management of it's affairs to a syndicate of cracked intellects and theorist- enthusiasts with just enough shrewdness to half disguise their ultimate purpose; when it abandons politics, in the sane sense, and makes itself an engine for the propa- gation of a theory--in short, when 1t goes in for an educational canvass, somebody is bound to be educated.
 That is what happened yesterday.
 The great mass of the Democracy, sound to the core, loyal as ever to the essential and eternal truths of its creed, hopeful even in defeat and courageous and unshaken this dis nal November morning, is the vlc- tim of the educational campaign. It has been educated with ven- geance, and at tremendous cost. It has learned its lesson, and it is not hkel y to forget the same. ". !. Sun.
