main essential OF thorough-going Re-
publicanism. He is giving very few
offices to negroes, but 1t is well known
that white Republicans are only MEM
bers of Il negro party in a PiclSwiclxian
sense. This was as true of Grant as 1t
was of Hayes, Garfield or Arthur. No
one who knew Grant is likely to be-
lieve that he held the negro fit for
citizenship. He supported the negro
governments at the South with the
army as party measure. Harrison
is different in this respect only because
the times are different AS a partisan
he resembles Grant more than he does
Hayes, Garfield or Arthur, each of
whom had individuality enough to as
sert Individual opinions on occasion.
1t is not to be expected that Mr.. Har-
rison will do any thing of the kind.
He is no better than his party, and he
could not well be worse. His South
ern policy" when it is viewed retro
spectively, will probably show no
change from the old Republican pol
icy of sectionalism. st. Louis Re-

A DIGNlFlED REBUKE.

How Democratic Judge Replied to n
Request for His Resignation.
Attorney-General Miller caught a
tartar the other day when he tackled
Elliott Sandford. Chief Justice of the
| Supreme Court of Utah, whom the Ad-
ministration has recently removed.
To a letter from Miller requesting his
| resignation, Sandford replied asking
il there were any charges against him
and stating that it would be unbecom-
ing and improper for him to resign
until they were proved or disproved.
This brought reply from Miller in
which he said: "The President has be-
| come satisfied that your administra-
tion of the Office was not in harmony
with the policy he deemed proper to
be pursued with reference to Utah
affairs, and for this reason he desired
to make u change, and out of courtesy
gave you an opportunity to resign"
The judges answer was to the point.
He wrote as follows: 'In reply have
the honor to say that my earnest pur-
pose while on the bench as Chief
Justice of the Territory has been to
administer justice and the laws hon
estly and impartially to all men, under
the obligations of my oath of Office.
If the President of the United States
has any policy which he desires a
Judge of the Supreme Court to carry
out in reference to Utah affairs, other
than the one have pursued, you may
say to him that he has done very well
to remove me-.
Whether this message is conveyed
to Harrison or not is not stated, but it
win probably warn Miller against en-
tering into any particulars hereafter

A VALUABLE REMEDY.


of Leprosy.
Mr.. Edward Clifford, writing about
Father Damien in the Nineteenth Cen
tury, says: 81 think he had not much
faith in the gurjon oil, but at my request
he began using it, and after u fort
nights trial the good effects became
evident to all. His face looked greatly
better, his sleep became very good in
stead of very bad, his hands improved,
and last Sunday he told me that he
had been able that morning to sing
orisons-the first time for months. One
is thankful for this relief, even if i
should be only temporary; but it is i'm
possible not to fear that after several
years progress the disease has already
attacked the lungs or some other vital
organ, and that the remedy comes too
late.
81 may mention here that gurjon oil
is the produce Of fir tree which grows
plentifully in the Andaman Islands.
Its efficacy was first discovered by DR..
Dougall, and l am assured by Sir
Donald Stewart, who was then Gov.
crHOI VI IIc ioluiiuo, anu "ho nos ociit
me the official medical report, that
every single case in the place was
cured by it. The lepers were convicts
and it was therefore possible to enforce
four hours a day of rubbing ointment
all over their bodies and the taking ol
two small doses internally. In some OF
the cases the disease was of many
years standing, and the state to which
it had reduced its victims was indis
scribably dreadful; yet of the eigh,
months the sufferers were able to use
heavy pickaxe, and every symptom
OF leprosy had disappeared. The oil is
brown and sticky in its raw condition,
but when mixed with three parts oi
limewater il makes an ointment as soft
and smooth as butter. 1t can be OBJ
tanned in London. The real difficulty
in the cure lies in the fact that lepers
are too inactive and too callous TO take
the exertion OF sufficient rubbing in OF
the oil, and it is difficult both in Hawaii
and in India to force them to do SO. In
Molokai there are three Franciscan sis.
ters who take charge OF the leper girls,
and who are now using the oil. think
that their quiet systematic endeavors
are likely to produce important results,
and that children will be more obedi
ent patients than adulta

"Captain," reported the officer, as
he came up from below, pale with fear,
1.-The water is gaining on us. We must
tighten the ship!'
With the presence of mind that dis
tinguishes the true hero from the
craven in the hour of peril the Captain
instantly called all hands on deck.
"Men," he said, and his deep voice
rang out, clear and strong over the
wild waste of waters that threatened to
engulf the stately vessel, throw those
things overheard"
The sailors went to work with the
energy of despair. In less than an
hour they had thrown over the side
of the vessel the private baggage
of travelling actress and three
fashionable canes belonging to Lon
don dude, and the gallant ship, with
her leak now high above water,
bounded ON her course like a thing OF
life. Her commander had saved her.

The Tariff on Steel Rails.

Experience proves rails can be made
here as cheaply as in England. The
labor cost on a ton of steel rails is less
to-day at Braddock than it is in En-

will be enlightened just as soon as the
dozen American rail mills can agree

INDUSTRIOUS MExICANS.
An Americans Visit to a Cooperative vii
lage Near Orizaba.

lage Near OriLhDh'
While stopping at Orizaba, Mexico. |
heard that there was village near the
city which was run on the cooperative
plan, and / visited it to ascertain the
effects of corporation in practice in
stead of theory. Tenango, the cO-opera-
tive village, is located in a little ''N"
shaped niche in the angle where two
mountains join. 1t faces the south and
is as pretty spot as could have been
found in Mexico for a cooperative
colony. The population of the village
consists of small tribe of Indians,
probably four or five hundred in num-
Der, who annually choose an Alcalde
and Ayuntamiento, or chief magistrate
and council to receive and disburse all
moneys received from the products OF
the village and look after the general
welfare of the place. These officials,
like the more common members of the
community, wear cotton suits, which
are made by their wives and probably
and cheap sombreros, and work the
same as those who hold no Office.
A small church is located in the
center of the village, and Jolly,
round-faced padre or priest, who
is supported out of the funds
of the community, ministers to the
spiritual wants of the villagers. The
village was in fair sanitary condition,
considered from Mexican point OF
view, and the people appeared con-
tented and happy. The principal prod
ucts of the village are coffee, lemons,
oranges, bananas and vegetables, and
these, along with corn, furnish good
portion of the provisions on which the
people subsist. The coffee raised is far
in excess of the amount necessary for
home consumption, and the surplus
when sold brings in much more than
enough money to clothe the people,
thus leaving a snug amount in the
treasury. There appeared to be no
drones in the village, and during the
time when the help OF all was not re-
quired in the village those who had
idle time improved it by going up on
the mountains and burning charcoal
and hewing out boards or planks and
taking them to Orizaba to sell. This
industrious disposition on the part OF
the co-operators caused enough money
TO flow into the treasury to enable the
Alcade to deal out liberal portion to
each one an still keep an emergency
fund in the treasury. The only thing
which saw to give me bad impress
sion of the village was the condition in
which every one who had been to mar
ket, returned. An ordinary Mexican
can get pretty drunk and enjoy him
self, but when Tenango co-operator
comes home from market 1t can be
safely calculated that he Is drunken
than anybody, can yell louder than
anybody, and can lick anybody between
the ages of eight and eighty, and will
get satisfaction by pounding his poor
burro II he can find no cause to pound
one OF his neighbors. Chicago

HOW TO CURE SNORING.
Shut Your Mouth and Don't Clog You
Breathing Apparatus.

breathing apparatus
Only the man or woman chained to
that rest-destroying angel. the snoring
partner, can appreciate its sinfulness.
The wicked emotions aroused in the
soul of the sufferer against the sleeper
can not be transferred to paper. Could
man or woman preserve their
night thoughts of the innocent offender
during the entire twenty-four hours,
married life would be Il blank, treeless,
unwatered waste. For this sort of
afiiiction, if made public, man or
woman gets only the same class OF
sympathy accorded to malaria-a grin
ming, That's too bad.
There is remedy for ague; quinine
is bitter, but it breaks up chills. There
is remedy for snoring, and that is bit
ter, too. Scientists have discovered
that snorers are invariably great
laughers and takers. who exist prln'
cipally with their mouths wide open,
thereby clogging the breathing appar-
atus with dust and roughening the
delicate cords by contact with crude
air. To these good-natured and
loquacious sleep-killers science says;
shut up; keep your mouth closed

and chatter than turn honey into gal'

THE RACE QUESTION.

1t VIII BE Worked for All There Is i'm II
by Harrison's Bosses.
We find the following concerning
Mr.. Harrison's Southern eolicy" in
the New York World:
Knowing that the old policy Of negro domina'
tion can never again be established there
President Harrison, with the cold-blooded cal
culation which characierIzes the "practlcal
politician" whose conscience is cared for by
his religion, proposes to leave the colored peo-
pie to do us they did during the administra-
tions OF Hayes and Arthur, and as they have on
the whole done very creditably ever since
namely, to shift for themselves.
We do not understand that it is
properly matter of conscience and
duty for any President of the United
States to interfere between the races
at the South. The citizens of the
States under all constituted theories
are supposed to "shift for them
selves"
But it will be found when Congress
meets, we think, that the present Ad-
ministration means to force d race
issue, if it can, The old policy of agi-
tation to create sectional prejudice
will be pursued. The President will
not join in it personally, because he is
not in position to do so, but he will
promote it as far as he can, leaving
the active work to be done by his sup
porters in Congress.
He indicated this clearly enough be-
tween the lines of his inaugural ad-
dress, and it is the course that he
would naturally If not inevitably pur-
sue. A President of great force of
character might realign parties, but
Mr.. Harrison is narrow man. hav-
ing no other force than that of events
which impel him in this direction or
that. He viii not attempt to divide
the negro vote or to change the atti-
tude OF the Republican party as the
negro party. The negro vote Is nee
essary to Republican success in the
close States of the North. The care
with which the President has been
cultivating negro preachers in Indiana
shows that he realizes this, and he has
shown in Congress and on the stump
that he believes agitation intended 70

CHINESE RESTRICTION AT MANILA.

A correspondent of the Straits
Times writes: The Manila Govern
ment Gazette of the 21sf August
contains decree regulating Chinese
immigration into the Philippines,
which comprises the following pro-
visions of interest to shipmasters
proceeding thither; Chinese immi-
grafton is restricted to the port of
Manila. The harbor-masters at other
open ports there are bound to forbid
Chinese from landing elsewhere
under penalty of a fine. Masters OF
vessels arriving at Manila with
Chinese passengers or sailors on
board must give notice to the harbor-
master, and may not allow any of
them to land unless authorized. The
harbor-master, on receiving notice,
will go on board, and take down the
names of these Chinese. Lists of
their names will be made out in tri-
plicate, one of which will be left with
the master. The passengers will
have then to provide themselves with
certificates supplied by the local
Chinese headman on payment of
tax. No passenger will be allowed
to land without paying tax unless he
finds security. Otherwise the master
of the vessel, or, failing MIN, the con-
signees, will have to take the de-
faulting passengers back to the port
of departure.

Classic Cambridge has been in
vaded by an army of sand flies, which
has established its headquarters near
fair Harvard. The lives of residents
of Main street, near Harvard square,
are made miserable by the little
pests. The stories of the way the
people have to fight the enemy are
very amusing. One man says he
has to stand on the bed mornings to
dress himself, because if he steps out
upon the floor a score of flies begin
at once to bite his feet.
