aud the scheme failed more than fifteen

run regular lines of steamships from
New York to Rio Janeiro and to Rio

subsidy. But why should such sub
sidy be psidp If there Is trade enough
to make the lines profitable, they will
be established. We Americans are for

tariff to build ships. But the English,

such lines do not pay and cannot pay,

we have said, subsidy could make

The Holy Night.

Helen Grace Smith, in BelfOrd's Magazine
for December.
1t was so still u night
SO calm and still!
And watching stors, far In the silent sky,
Sbcne tcnderly
Upon the quiet world asleep and chill,
- nd living breathiess IN the frozen light.
o earth unconscious earth!
Serene Ihat hour
As the untroubIed heart of the sweet maid
Who nov hath laid
Her little child to rest-her child whose
power
Hath lid e'en sOulless things proclaim His
birth.
Yet silent lies lie now,
And asketh naught,
This sweetest One, but on His mother y
He findeth rest.
And OF her tender smiling (sOrrow- -bOught). b..
The still light falleth on His sleeping brow.
"My Own !" she whispers low,
And then her ear
Hath caught the angel anthem from above,
Where the Blest Dove
Forever broOdeih, and she waits TO hear
The song of peace re- echoed DER the snow.
And yet the Babe doth sleep;
And does lie dream
How, In the golden Christmases to come,
Through each fair house
hat scli-same song Of peace, while tapers
gleam,
Shall sound, rs now il soundeih, strong and
deep.
For happy childhood bears
Forever more
His seal upOn itS brow, and chidhOOd's voice
Shall e'rr rejoice
AT this glad time, when the R"Icemer wore
Its poverty. Its fccblrnr>s, and tears.
And every human heart
Shall tender grow
And very humble, If IA child but speak,
That sccm"h W, ak,
But still Is strong In Him who would i0rego
Through strength of love all things that Joy

There are great many influences at

fully studies the signs of the times and
the problems that these portend will
not overlook the fact that Canada, like
New Mexico and Arizona, will soon be
knocking at our door for admittance.
The subject is too apt to be dismissed
carelessly by those who are either for
or against it. 1t deserves better than
this, as moments reflection on the

THE wooL-GRowERs.
A National Organization Effccte"'
The Producers, Grievances.


WASHINGTON, December 6.-At the
wool-growers' convention today. the
National Wool Growers Association OF
the United States WAS organized by the
adoption Of a constitution and the eiec-
ton of the following officers to serve one
year: Columb Delano, Ohio, Pfesi-
dent; J. T. Rich, Michigan, Vice.P Presl'
dent; G. H. Beall, West Virginia, Treas
urer; George H. Wallace, Missouri,
Secretary, and Davis Cossitt. New York,
Assistant Secretary. E. N. Bissell, Yer
mont; W. J.. Black, Texas, and John
Mcdowell, Pennsylvania, were selected
to act with the officers OF the association
az an Executive Board. The committee
appointed to draft an address to the
wool-growers of the United States will
publish an address at an early date.
One of the principal subjects discussed
today was the under valuation OF So
called ring waste. During the last year
the importation of this sc.called waste
equaled the entire wool clip of either the
States of Ohio or Texas. II was argued
that it is superior for nearly all wool
manufacturing purposes to the finest
secured wool in this country, and yet
pays duty of only ten cents pound,
when it should pay, upon proper and
just classification, thirty to sixty cents
ler pound. Last year about 100000
pounds of this wool was imported, prin-
cipally from England, and sold in the
markets of this country at from sixty
two to sixty.five cents a pound,
while, in the same markets, fine
secured California wool sold at 55 cents
per pound. 1t was also stated that this
fine grade of wool was MANIPULATED bv
machinery before shipment especially
constructed to coil it into small rings in
imitation of waste, for the sole purpose
of evading the law and avoiding the pay
ment of the just customs duties.
A committee waited upon Secretary
Windom this afternoon and presented
protest. The Secretary stated that he
was engaged in thorough investigation
of the subject, and full justice will be
done the wool growing interests. The
next annual meeting will be held in
Chicago, the second Wednesday of June

THE NEW ABOLITION.
4 Movement Emb0dy ing Som

A Movement EmbOdy Ing Some
Unique and Radical Reforms.
DENVER, December 6.-The Individual
ist, liberal and reform paper. comes
out today with a leader in support Of
''The New Abolition" which EN- braces
a number OF very radical and revolution
ary demands, namely: "The immediate
and unconditional repeal and total
abolition of the so-called titles to land,
other than the natural title of occupancy
and use all statutes and enactments in
any way relating to the circulating
medium of the country all statutes that
in any way interfere with trade between
individuals of the same or of different
countries; all charters, special privileges
and franchises to corporations; ali forms
of compulsory taxation all other statutes,
precedents and customs that in any
way conflict with the law of equal
freedom"
1t further demands the collective or
State ownership and control of all high
ways, waterways, railways, telegraphs,
telephones, canals, bitches, reservoirs,
etc., and the municipal ownership and
control of all waterworks, Illuminating
and public heating plants, street rail-
ways, cable lines. etc.
The Indiuidualist boldly claims that
"The New Abolition" embodies in
essence the real aims and desires of the
farmers Alliance, the Agricultural
Wheel, the Knights of Labor, trades
unions and declarations of trades, the
Union Labor, United Labor and Green
back parties, and the reasonable de-
mands Of all rational Nationalists, So
eialists, Communists and Anarchists. 1t
further claims that this movement will
be backed on che start-cut with at least
1,8O0,0 900 votes, and that it will shake
the country from center to circumfer-
ence. New Abolition clubs are now in
process of formation in different parts of
the country. Newark, N. j., has formed
q large club, and it is said that Oleve-
land, Ohio, and people of other localities
are taking steps to organize.

the radicals, Yves Guyot, though very far
from being disciple Of Theirs, yet sub
scribes to the statue. He explains that 1t is
not to the ideas nor to the policy of Theirs
that he desires TO do honor, but 10 the cham
pfon Of the republic at that time.
On May i6, if many more subscriptions OF
this kind come in, accompanied by reser-
vations and restrictions, the demonstration
got up on the strength of the Theirs theory
will bear but a very confused political sig
nfcance. 1t will, however, have the eff ect
of repairing great wrong. Statues abound
in Paris, some of them being erected to the
honor of individuals who had but little claim
TO the memory and veneration of pos
terty, and yet Theirs, one of the
mott eminent statesmen OF whom
France can boast, and one
who rendered his country such brilliant SER
vice has not been similarly honored. Per.
haps the motive for this delay may be traced
TO the fear of exciting the anger of the revo-
lutionary party, which has never forfiven
Thiers for putting down the insurrection of
the Commune, but in spite of this faction 1t
is high time that Paris and France had paid
its debt of gratitude
