SOCIETY IN AMERICA,
A Brief Sermon Which Can BE Pondered
Over In High Places


When John G. SAKE, in his one-time
famous satirical poem, "The Proud Miss
Mcbride" made his deserved reflection on
the youth Of American aristocracv, the
country was many years younger than it is
at present. Nevertheless, says the Boston
Gazette, hls structures are as applicable
now as they were then. Our aristocracy is
still thing for daughter, fleers and
Jecrs," and 1t will continue to be so until
those who have wealth and influence, how.
ever acquired, learn TO regard their
humber nelghbors as beings walking upon
the same planet as themselves and not as
inferior creatures from some other world
And it is TO be remembered, Just here. that
people who have suddenly acquired social
position are often more supercilious in
their bearing to persons who have been less
fortunate than are those who can boast as
long descent as this country can record.
SO we find folk whose grandmothers
perhaps, sold spruce beer in cellar, or
whose grandfathers dealt out liquor at
three cents glass at some corner grog-
gerry Mt the North End, assuming arrogant
airs when they happen TO be thrown into
the company OF those who are intellectu
ally and morally their superiors. what"
said one Of these upstarts, "do you speak
the street, l never notice any of the
lower orders except in the way of busi.
ness.h The father of the person she
looked down upon may have been a Gen
eral in the war OF the rebellion, aud his
grandfather may have fallen with Warren
at Bunker Hill, but the memory OF the in
solent social mushroom did not 90 back as
far as that She could recall with greater
readiness multiplicity OF relatives of her
own who came over in the steerage from
Europe, not To be too precise in the desig-
nation OF localities across the sea
we nnd no fault with those who endeay-
or 20 better their condition. It's the glory
OF this country that all may rise TO place
and honor, without regard TO their antece-
dents. What we object TO is the assump-
uon OF superiority by many who have been
brought by the whirligig OF time, or, in
other words, good luck, to position that
they never dreamed OF occupying in the
day OF small things These should remem-
Der that decent affabilty, without pre-
tennous oondesceusion, is the distinguish
ing mark Of all who really adorn rank and
station, and that another revolution or the
wheel OF fortune may bring many again 10
the humble places from which their families
started
One may pour tea at an afternoon recep-
ton In the most exquisite OF imported
gowns andbeuremember that there Is some
sister, perhaps at the South
End, who has quite as sensitive feelings as
The elegant society lady, and who may be
her equal In Intelligence and education:
- because you flourish In worldly anairs
Don't be naughty and put on airs,
With insolent pride OF stAtioni
Don't be proud and turn up your nose

The Miners of Montana.

Montana miners are described as
trough looking, pale, worn and hag-
gard. Many of them have lived the
greater part of their lives in the hor-
rible chambers that, lined as they
are with precious metal, have still
no charm for their inmates. Life in
the mines is modern slavery. The
looks of the men prove this; the wan
faces of the children bear painful
evidence of the fact

DON'T see why government Is to

Huntington.
Strange, but "none 80 blind as
those who will not see" No man is
obliged to go to hotels, or buy clothes
OF merchants, or to patronizc any
private business. Any men or COM
pany of men may combine to procure
their needs by other means Many
things can be used as substitutes.
Suppose one or more men shall com
bine and refuse To patronlzc railways
In any way. How long could they
do business? How could they ever
exist? All freight Is carried by rall
and the charges made by the roads
are as Fundamental as the charges
for labor in production. You might
as well swear that you will use
nothing that has paid tribute to Ia
bor as to shy you will not patronize
railroads. This is 80 plain one Is
ashamed to dilate on II, 'rls
automatic Hence 1t follows that
the railway service, having revolu-
tIonized all other like methods, has
become nm imperious public neces-
sity. You must patronizo II whether
or no In everything YOU use, BY
their pooling system Interpretations
have destroyed competition, and
there is left no option to the public,
save To control.

and is nothing but bare rock. Scat

tie basins from Il few feet to II rod or
two in diameter, and it is in the
bottom of those that the rolling
stones are found. They are from
the Size Of II pea to five or six inches

to be found In the material of which
they are composed, which appears
to be loadstone or magnetic iron ore.
