The Arkansaw traveler. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1882-1???, 1888-12-29

The Los Angeles Tribune OF q late
date, has the following story concern
Ing Col. VIII L. visscher, who IN at
present one Of the editorial writers of
the OreOoRidR: -
A party Of gentlemen sat at the
table OF restaurant, and among other
stories one was related of Will r.
Visscher, q newspaper man not un-
known on this coast. He was married
In Omaha some ten years ago at the
house Of his uncle, who us. now a
resident of Pasadena. The. lady who
had the fortune to become Mrs. WIS.,
cher was the daughter OF wealthy
parents, and was. likewise ignorant of
kitchen and household duties. All
went rs merry as the traditional
marriage bell for a time, but the
honeymoon over, the house keeping
began. A week or so elapsed when
the whilom happy benedict became
detected In appearance and Hess jovial
in manner. IN answer to the feeling
inquiry Of friend as to the cause OF
these habiliments of woe, the genial
journalist delivered himself In about
these words by way of explanation {:
"You know | am married, and and
my wife are housekeeping now. Well,
some way we don't get along Just
right. never did any cooking, and
my wife don't know much more about
1t that i. Now what do you suppose
we had for breakfast this morning2"
Waiting q minute for his friend to
say he had no idea, Visscher continued.
"Well, all in Gods world there was
on the table was ham and ice cream. ("

No section Of the country Is to-day
attracting as much attention as Mon
tana, Oregon and Washington; Mon
tana, because Il now ranks first in the
production of precious metals; Ore
gon, because of It's rich valleys, and
Washington Territory by reason of It's
mild climate, timber, coal, minerals
and wonderful productions of fruits
and cereals. The rapid growth of
Spokane Falls, with q water power
exceeding even that of Minneapolis :;
Tacoma, on Puget Sound, the termi-
nus Of the Northern Pacific railroad,
with 1000 inhabitants; Seattle, thirty
miles distant, an energetic and thriv-
ing city, mark this section OF the Pa
cifc Northwest as one that offers Pc
culiar inducements TO those seeking

WASTED SKILL.

1t is sometimes desirable to develop
muscle and test physical endurance, but
what conceivable use is there in over
taxing the system and mourning the
risk Of serious injury in breaking 10000
balls in six days. 1t may be remarka-
ble feat, but would not the breaking of
a hundred in thirty minutes be as sat
isfactory in all but the monOtonouS
struggle to defy the limitations of nat
ure. If DR.. CARVER, who is conceded
to possess almost phenomenal skill and
alertness with the gun, can break the
10000 balls in the time, where is the good
TO himself or any one else? A black
smith could do the work with his ham,
mer without endangering his physical
powers, and with equal benefit to the
world. 1t is conceded fact that all
strains upon the human machine dimln-
lsh its vital resources and shorten its
life. Its powers are enfeebled, not in
vIgorated by unnatural tension. Such
exhibitions should be discOuntenanced.

money taken from the wages
Of the miners. This is done upon
exactly the same principle that pro-
tective tariff is established, which con-
fines the consumer to one market, and
compels him to pay bonus to the capt.
talists who have their money invested
in manufacturing. The principle is
precisely the same in each case; and yet
of those who voted in the late election
to perpetuate the protective policy, fully
nine-tenths will be ready to exclaim
against the extortion practiced by the
Susquehanna mine owners. 1t is prob
able that the miners themselves who
are the victims of this extortion voted
in solid mass for the protective policy
at the late election, little dreaming that
such fearful application of the protec-
ton principle would come home to
them so soon. There is just as much
justice in the Pennsylvania mine own
ers' extortion upon their employees as
there is in the government eXt0rting
money from its citizens for the benefit
of the wealthy classes. And yet there
is no man with heart in his breast who
for one moment would justify the Sus-
quehanna coal barOns in their eXtortion-
ate practices,

BUILDING NEEDED.

The last biennial report of the Min
nesota Historical society tothe legisla-
ture contains request for an appropri-
alton of from $4,000 to 100000 for the
purpose of greetings fire-proof building
for the uses of the society. The argu-
ments advanced by the society in sup
port of its demand for an appropriation
are so strong that the legislature can
scarcely fail to give proper heed to the
matter. The society OWNS valuable
lot on the corner of Tenth and Wabasha
streets, diagonally opposite the state
house, with frontage of $50 feet on
Wabasha and 100 feet on Tenth street.
Under the act creating the society this
lot must be held as sacred trust for the
uses and purposes of the society, and
cannot be sold or encountered by debt.
Consequently, it is practically valueless
unless the state will erect build
ing on it for the society. 1t is
claimed by the society that the
present apartments in the state house
were never suitable for its purposes, on
account of the utter lack of proper ar
rangement for library work and use.
More than that, they are dimly lighted
and without artificial ventilation. A
visitor to these apartments, particularly
in cold or damp weather, will readily be
impressed with their unhtness. These
rooms must Of necessity be as unhealthy
as they are disagreeable, and it is but
little short of an outrage that the
officials of the society should be con-
fined in an atmosphere of this kind.
More than that, the society has almost
reached the end of space allotted for its
use, and any further growth of the Ii
brary and museum collections will be
impossible.
The historical society is an institu
ton meriting the fostering care of the
state. 1t is the duty of every common
wealth to collect and preserve materials
for its own history, and to encourage
research, as well as to promote culture
and knowledge. As suggested by the So
ciety in its report to the legislature. mere
money making, mere success in accu-
mulating wealth, will never make a
state, nor will they alone make happy
iCopCSCCo PCcPiS' A/NcilooiN 40 III
wealth and resources, there are still more
important qualities to give power and
dignity to commonwealth. Intellect
and knowledge are the real bases of
greatness; andin state like ours, where
the various elements of population
that are to form great state are still in
a plastic and impressive state, it is all
the more important that they receive in
the beginning the impress of rightideas
virtuOuS impulses and honest judg
ments. 1t is with such arguments as
these and an assertion of its claim to
public confidence by reason of its past
career OF usefulness, the Minnesota
Historical society appeals 10 the legisla
ture for an unbiased and careful hear
ing of its petition. That it deserves
such hearing is beyond all controversy,
and to question the disposition of the
legislature to give it such a hearing
would be reflection upon the intelli
gence and public-spiritedness of the
members of that body. The historical
society is not an institution of mere
local concern, but it is one that inter-
ests all sections of the state alike.

THE GREATEST WOMAN.

A prominent English journal has re-
vived the somewhat chestnutty notion
that the designation of the greatest
woman could be determined by vote.
Its readers cast their ballots for the
twelve, and the result is only notable
for the omissions. JOAN Of Arc leads,
followed by GEORGE SAND, Queen
ELIZABETH, MARIA THERESA and
GEORGE ELIOT. AsPAsIA, SUSANNAH
WESLEY and Miss WILLARD are
equally popular; and HELEN of Troy
and Mrs. STOWE are tied. There are
others, whose names are known to few.
Just what constitutes eligibility to the
list is not stated. but among the notable
omissions is the first mistress of Eden.
Aside from genealogical penchant that
was unfortunate rather than weak
ness, she was a model woman. There
are but two American ladies in the
dozen, while the whole number could
be easily filled this side of the water.
The list evidently will never be swelled
by the famale readers of the English
journal.

TOO MANY CHURCHES.

All makers of machinery are wrestling
with the problem of economizing power.
The trouble is thatin so much of the ma
chinery in daily use but a small percent
age of the force guaranteed can be uti-
lized. For Illustration, but few per-
sons who have not given the matter spe-
cial attention are aware of what an
enormous waste of power there is in
running locomotive forty-five miles an
hour between two stations only a few
miles apart. And it is so in almost
every department of industrial life
where machinery is used. That those
of this world who devote their attention
to a study of material affairs are
wiser than those who are sup
posed to be guided by direct spir-
itual forces, is apparent from the mat
tentiOn of the latter to the reckless prod
igality among church organizations in
the waste of forces at their command.
The makers of machinery are trying to
economiZe power, while the makers of
churches seem to be striving to waste it.
Apparently the latter have no idea of
condensing and economiZing force in
the running of ecclesiastical machinery.
This is more particularly true of the
Protestant denominations, for Catholic
ity is temple which has enroofed
score of sects-or what would be Sects
under the wasteful methods of Protest
antism. The essential creedal differ
ences between the Protestant denom-
nations is so slight one is at a loss to
account for the enormous expenditure
of spiritual energy in maintaing secta-
rian lines and divisions. Go into any
community, from the country village
up to the metropolis, and you will see
that the wasteful methods are the pop
ular methods. You will find each COM
munity supporting half dozen differ
ent churches which usually bear such
a close family resemblance than only an
expert theologian can tell them apart.
Yet these various churches, without diff
ference, except in some inconsequential
divergence in discipline and polity, are
occupying the same ground and work
ing separate enormous ecclesiastical
machines with dn incalculable diSSipa-
ton of power. Where is the sense. the
reason or the religion in this Won
derfuI waste of spiritual force
and energy? Why is it the crea-
tors of social and spiritual organisms
do not give their attention to this i'm
portant question? Is it any wonder
that Christianity fails to keep pace
with Buddhism and Northumberland
while our ecclesiastical authorities are
sacrificing the well-being and propriety
of the organic life of religion to sec
tartan prejudices? If Christianity ex-
poets to make Roadway it must first
learn to conserve Its force and econo-
mize its power. Then, when it has
grown into temple of grand proper
tons. at whose altar differences of opin-
ion are tolerated, various methods of
ecclesiastical administration are en-
couraged, and when all kinds of nat
ures, temperaments and dispositions
are permitted to find religious ex-
preston under an all-encircling unity,
then, and not till then, will it have ac-
eomplished the mission the Master de-
signed for ii,

BALLOT REFORM.

The opposition will be likely to in
dulge in partisan distrust of any sug-
geStions of electoral reform coming
from Gov. HILL, but there is conceded
need of new departure in sentiment
and method. There could hardly be a
better time for its consideration than
the present. Party feeling is not active,
and the lessons of the campaign are still
fresh. 1t is understood that in his early
message to the New York legislature,
Gov. HILL will suggest or formulate
some methods for the protection of the
ballot. 1t is intimated that he will IA
vor provision for the preparation of the
ballot near the polls, free from the OBJ
servation of intereated parties. This
alone would not seem to be sufficient.
The end specially to be sought is to
prevent bribery and allow the voter to
freely select his preference uninflu-
enced by party workers. Good citizens
of all parties should combine efforts on
the most effective measures.
