ONE of the funniest outcomes of
the agitation against poverty in
New York is the claim of copyright,
or rather trade mark, on the Anti
poverty Association" made by DR..
McGlynn. He moved for and OBJ
tanned an order to show cause why
Henry Georges men, Post and
Croasdale, should not be restrained
by injunction from using the name
for thei: association, and the court
issued the injunction. Though DR..
McGlynn would perhaps have sut-
fered in case he had failed to win
the point, the Anti-Poverty cause
would not, for the attack of two
such organizations on this monster
evil of human society must be
more effective than that of one only !;
but of course it would have cost
more to abolish poverty through
two such organizations than one.
The separation between George and
Mc-Glynn seems undoubtedly to be
owing to the fact that the Anti
Poverty humbug has ceased to pay
and something else had to be found
to give its promoters a living, and
they cannot agree upon just what
that shall be.

more will ever be mined while /

asked if he wanted that to go on
record, he answered: Eyes, en-
phatically, I want that to go on
record. 1t will be a pretty cold day
when I discharge men who stood
by me when I needed help, for men
who deserted and attempted to ruin
me-" This investigation has shown
his friends and foes what stuff Mr..
Corbin is made OF, and after watc b.
ing him, many will be ready to ex-
claim in the words of Voltaire,

THE Secretary of the Treasury
has transmitted to the House esti-
mates for a deficiency appropria-
ton of $4,000 for the support of
United States prisoners during the
fiscal year. Attorney General Gar
land says that the expense of sup
porting United States prisoners has
steadily and largely increased since
1885, owing to the passage of the
bill forbidding the employment of
the prisoners on contract labor.
While short time ago many insti-
tutions received and supported gov
eminent prisoners without cost to
the United States, there is now but
one that can be designated for the
confinement of prisoners where
per diem is not charged.

coRB1N AND THE STRIKERS.

Austin Corbin, the president of
the Reading railroad company,
made present of $4,000 to the
suffering families of the striking
miners, short time ago, much to
the surprise of the strikers. The
present was personal one, coming
out of Mr.. Corbin's own pocket,
and was not intended to indicate
any change in the attitude of the
company toward the strike. The
gift was prompted by his pity for
the families of the strikers, many
OF whom were said to be in great
distress. Mr.. Corbin's feelings to-
ward the strikers has not changed,
az ne declared very emphatically
before the Reading Investigating

QUITE severe earthquake shock
was experienced in San Francisco
on the afternoon of February 29th.
It was of several seconds duration,
and the vibrations were of sufficient
force to rattle crockery and make
gas fixtures culver. 1t was also
felt at San Rafael, Santa Rosa,
Healdsburg and Petaluma. At the
latter place the shock was accom-
panied by a sound as of an explo-
sion and the walls of several build
ings were cracked.

THE value of poultry and eggs
produced in the United States an
nually is computed at 100000, 900
more than the combined products
of silver bullion, pig iron and the
wool crop of the country-and yet
these articles are only incidental
productions of American farmers.
1t would be profitable if more would
turn their attention to increasing
the products of the poultry yard,
for large as these figures are they
do not represent the full value of
eggs consumed in the United States.
Last year there was large number
of eggs imported from England
and Germany.

ENGLAND recommends Canada to
fortify her frontier bordering on the
United States. What does this
mean? We have no defences worth
naming on the northern frontier
and only one small war vessel on
the lake, and why should England
be afraid. Is another Fenian raid
expected, or does England think
Uncle Sam intends to cross the
border and gobble up the Canadian
provinces bodily? There is some
little talk of annexation but it
all comes from the Canada side.
Some of Her Majesty's loyal sub
jects, while not admitting that they
wish for any such arrangement, say
they cannot help seeing that the ma
terial prosperity of Canada would
be enhanced if she were under the
protection of the stars and stripes.
