American Economist says: None but the most indifferent reader of the daily press could have failed to note during the past few days the unanimity with which journals of all po- Htical persuasions have announced the in- creased activity in business and the prosper ity that seems to abound in business circles all over the country. Indeed, our most rabid free trade contemporaries, while deploring in their editorial columns the failures and strikes and reduction of wages which they attribute to the present administration, an- nounce in their news columns the starting of new mills both North and South, the advance in wages which many laborers are receiving and the increased activity in business on all sides, with signs of an unusual fall trade and general prosperity. Of course the present administration has nothing whatever to do with either failures or increase in business The present activity and the plans for future operations are due solely to the confidence inspired by the fact that, for two years at least, we are to have legislation by protec- tionists who have in mind the best good of the whole country.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
Another day without rain.

General Boulanger may be as brave as ever, but he will now find it very difficult to convince even the French that he is great man.
 The Atlanta Constitution is threatened with a boycott by the leading Democrats of its city for its sharp denunoiation of the re- cent barbarities practioed upon colored men. The Constitution can afford to be boyoottsd for this.
 In Augusta, Maine, the other day the grand jury brought in ftty-6ve indictments for liquor selling in Kennsbsc county. The indictments included nearly every druggist in Augusta. The druggists and hotel keep CTS, when indicted, step up and pay the fines, amounting to $100 and coats, and con- tinue the traffic almost openly. They regard the fine as sort of license. Thus prohibi- tien does no. prohibit.
 The oldest person who has died this year was Gottfried Wapwarok, who passed away in Germany not many weeks ago at the un- disputed age of one hundred and tweaty-six years. The oldest person of modern times whose death is recorded accurately was Louisa Truxo, an English woman, who was ono hundred and seventy-five years old when she died, in 1780. There was Don Cam eron. who may have been an ancestor of the present family of long-lived Camerons in Pennsylvania, who died in Scotland in 1759 at the age of one hundred and thirty years. Minneapolis Is . lively and growing place, but it's inhabitants do not get the best to eat and drink. A chemist appointed to investigate the matter has just reported that, with the exception of wine, whisky and cheese, every kind of food and drink sold in that city contained adulterations. Not, of course, that every specimen submitted was adulterated, but that some of the specimens of all but the three named classes were found deficient in purity. Of course, too, not all the articles used for adulteration are un. wholesome, though some of them are even dangerous. But even if the adulteration Is harmless, the buyer is cheated to the extent to which the article obtained is not the article wanted.
 A correspondents suggests to the Indianap- olis News way of reducing postage little, without interfering with the revenues very much, while actually beneating the postal service. This is by the sale of stamped en- velopes at postage rates, the same as postal cards. The government would thus sur' render perhaps g on 1000 envelopes though their cost is considerably less thar that amount, but the change would bring the stamped envelopes into far more ex' tensive use and save vast number of let tess from going to the dead letter office fol want of prepaid postage. It would alst prevent the reuse of stamps, from which i is believed the government loses very con siderable sum. In comparison with thu , benefit which the government would dsriv' from the change, it is believed that the cos of the envelopes would scarcely be wortl
 considering.

THEE NEGRO QUESTION,

THE NkSGkkV VOESl4ONs
 The address issued by Captain William A. Pledger, chairman of the eolored national executive committee, will attract attention, and it ought to. In it he says: The negro problem is upon the nation, and, like Ban- qua's ghost, will not down, though dema- gogues, for the delegates to 8 gubernatorial convention from few backwoods counties, would suffer every negro in the State to be killed. You must present your case to the world and appoint committee to wait on the President and Congress of the United States, and tell them to scale the representa- tion in Congress for Georgia from ten mem- bers to five or six. Tell them that you are for years willing to do without voting, but insist that men who are not entitled to that representation given you shall not have 1t. Expect nothing from any political party ex- cept from that which does most for you. Urge our brethren in the North to study the question here and vote accordingly. As to leaving the South, let all mankind know you arc Americans, were born here, reared here, and expect in some way to solve the prob lem here, and here you expect to die and sleep by the side of your fathers, where you had one. Agitate, and continue to do 10 till you get every right you are entitled to.
 This is to the point. It is as forcible and sensible as anything that has recently been said concerning the negro question.

MORE TROUBLE.

It is more dangerous to live than ever. Now comes Dr. Behrend and shows, in the Nineteenth Century, what dreadful risks those who eat meat run. The inference to be drawn from his statement of the facts is that consumption is very largely due to dis eases that come from the use of affected cat tie for food. It is we'll known that the Hebrews have very strict laws as to the eat ing of meat of diseased animals. This is . part of their religion. and to their care in this respect Is to he traced 50 much of the vitality of the Hebrew race. Cases of phthisiE are exceedingly rare smong them, and theil exemption is said by physicians to be some thing remarkable in modern life. Dr. Beh- rend states that in Prussia half the Hebrew population attain their fftieth year, while half the Christians die by their thirty sixth one-fourth of the Hebrew inhabitants pass. ing their seventy fist year, while barely one fourth among the Christians reach their six tieth. Enough is said by Dr. Behrend te show that even in Europe, where attention has been drawn very strictly to this matter the inspection at present is utterly inadequate to prevent the markets from being flooded with unhealthy food, or to rescue such food from "the sausage factory" If such is tht case in Europe, where there are strin' gent laws, well enforced, what must it be 1T this country?

The Silver Wedding Anniversary of
Rev. DR.. and Mrs. Mcmillan
AT THEIR CHURCH In ALLEGHENY.
Whole Congregation Present as Guests Of
the Bridal Couple.
A SILVER COIN FROM EACH AS GIFT

The Second U. P. Church, Stockton ave-
nue. and Sandusky street, Allegheny, has
been the scene of many happy wedding.
and its pastor, Rev. DR.. W. H. Mcmillan,
has oficiated at the ceremonies. that
have Joined together more than one
young couple, but it is doubtful IT
a more happy or pleasanter scene has
been enacted in the church, or if the
pastor and his wife have experienced the
same sensations within its walls, as when
they were surrounded last night by a large
congregation of old and young, and con-
graduated as bride and groom of 25
years.
THE TABLES WERE TURNED.
The welder of holy bonds was placed back
in memory to the time when he stood at the
altar as an actor in a ceremony the like OF
which had many times since been performed
by himself
The arrangements for the silver wedding
were made by the ladies of the congregation,
The Sunday school room had been beautifully
decorated with flowers and tropical plants; a
lemonade fountain being hidden here by ferns
and trailing vines; group of plants therei the
whole com NininC to enhance the beauty Oh the
scene and form brilliant setting for the scores
of wedding guests who lowered around
the bride and groom OF quarter OF
a century ago. Soon band near
the platform filled the air with wedding strains
and the attention of the guests was attracted
to Rev Dr. Reed, of the First United Presby-
terian Church, Pittsburg, who in few re-
marks, half in Jest and half In earnest, pre-
sented the pastor and his wife with beautl-
full chatting dish of oXidlzed silver and hlled
with silver coins, representing about SOU.
THE APPROPRIATE IMPRINT.
On the dish were engraved the dates 1864 and
1889 and monogram. A set of silver oyster
forks. from Prof. Morrow, Superintendent
of Allegheny City Schools, and Mr.. Caldwell
was also presented
Rev. Dr. w. J. Robinson accepted the gifts.
The couple were then escorted to the bridal
table, on which was large wedding cake. It's
crest finely wrought in a pretty design. Rev;
Dr. Reed and wife and Rev. DR.. Robinson and
wife also sat at the table Placed around the
different rooms were small tables with bowls Of
flowers on each, and around these the guests
sat and partook of the wedding dinner.
Rev. DIR. Mcmillan has been pastor OF the
Second United Presbyterian Church for IL
years. and in that time has gathered around
him many friends and large congregation, as
was evinced by the tokens of regard shown
him and his co-worker, Mrs. Mcmillan, at the
ovation rendered them last night. And per-
haps the occasion will be looked back to by
the pastor and his wife with pleasant remem-
brances until the wedding date is more than
doubled.
