miles OF the late Mr.. Bright for over 20
years; he was always willing to help the
people among whom he lived. He was
ever ready to help all educational efforts
which were made in his district and he
had heart so generous and so kind that
no appeal of real distress ever came to
him unrelieved. 1t is So years since he
began his public life and from 1889, when
he Joined the Anti-Corn Law League. his
name has been q household word. He
was member of Parliament Tor 4G years
and TO show how widely he was esteemed
the people OF Birmingham selected him
to represent them in the House of Com

Col. VIM. S. Fox, OF the New York
Forrest Commission, has issued sta.
tistical work on the war for the sup
preston of the rebellion, in which he
shows the supremacy Of Pennsylvania
over any other Northern State in the
number OF men furnished the Govern.
ment. He also shows that Pcnnsyl-
Fania had more men killed during the
war than any other State. On the
Confederate side the honors were
earned by North Carolina, which lost
more men than any other Southern
State. From the time the first call
was made for men until after Lee sur
rendered his sword and army the old
Keystone State never ialtered, and her
motto was, HE who Is not tor US is
against US" Acting on this princi-
pie a crowd paraded the streets oil
Philadelphia about the middle of April
1851, and thoroughly purged that city
OF a weak, but which might have
proved dangerous, disloyal sentiment
that had dared TO show its head. All
honor to Pennsylvania, from whose
principal city liberty was proclaimed
to the world and the inhabitants there.

The statement that Edwin Booth {
Illness was caused by excessive smok
ing shows that man can be intern.
perate in more things than the inordi.
naIe use of Intoxicating liquors. This
was no doubt fully understood by the
apostle when he urged temperance in
all things. There is no doubt but a
great part of the crime, vice and pau
perism in the world Is caused by too
free an indulgence in intoxicants, as
an excess in liquor drinking is certain
to produce these results; still there are
other excesses, some OF which are in
dulged in by good men, which are
sure TO cause equally disastrous results.
The man who smokes or eats to ex-
cess, or INDUCES in anything else i'm.
moderately, even If 1t be work, physi-
cal or mental, to secure money or
lame, must sooner or later pay the
penalty, and whether he be an actor,
preacher, journalist OF business man,
is as thoroughly Incorporate as the
slave of King Alcohol, who constantly
has bis brains beclouded and his natu.
raj instincts brutalzed by the immode-
rate indulgence in rum.

1t is hoped that Secretary Tracy's
visit TO the League Island Navy Yard
will have substantial results. This
yard, comprising 023 acres, is the
largest in the world, and as is well
known was presented to the United
States Government by the city of
Philadelphia. 1t has one of the finest
and safest harbors in this country and
Is admirably located, but with all
these advantages it has been given the
cold shoulder and appropriations have
gone to other places, some OF which at
least should have been used at League
Island. The United States has the
opportunity of making this place the
finest naval depot in the world, and
as it Is close enough to this city to rem
der It q matter of local interest, we
sincerely trust that this visit of Secre.
tary Tracy may be productive OF good
results, and that when he transmits
bis first message to Congress he will
recommend an appropriation sutii
GENTLY large to put this yard on
proper footing.

Some years ago, when granite blocks
first commenced to be used for paving
streets, they were sold at from $40 to
$45 thousand. The blocks were at
that time chiefly made from small
pieces that would otherwise have
been wasted at the quarries. Now
they are used in almost every city,
and while there is not the slightest
reason why the price should be in
creased, it has been raised to S75 and
$50 per thousand blocks. This ii is
said is done by granite trust, com
posed of a few men who have sue
ceeded in obtaining exclusive control
OF the entire output OF the principal
quarries. AS they have already
doubled the price without any good
cause, there ia nothing TO prevent their
adding so per cent more to it If they
choose to do 60, and the only way to
beat them at their own game Is for
cities to use something else for paving
in place of the blocks. Fortunately q
substitute can be found in the vulcanite
blocks, which not only make fully as
durable, but much smoother pave
ment at less cost than the granite
blocks.

If it is true as reported, that certain
Knights OF Labor were the parties who
tied to destroy a non-union brewery
In New York by exploding dyna-
mite shell or bomb, it is the very worst
thing they coutd have done for their
order. According to the confessions
made by the men who are now in Gus.
tody, the plot to destroy this property
was deliberately planned by the exc.
cutive committee OF one of the local as,
semblies who when they found that
they could not compel the propreitors
of the brewery to accede to their de
mands determined 10 destroy their
property. The Knights of Labor have
committed many foolish and uncalled
70. acts, but this seems to be about the
worst of all, and we are very much
mistaken If it does not result In break

abiding citizens, such as the majority
of the wage earners Of this country are
