THE TIDE HAS TURNED.

Who would have believed ten
years ago that the cotton spinners
Of Lowell, Mass, would meet to de-
wise ways and means to keep its
trade from being taken away in its
own streets by Southern competi-
ton? Yet these are facts-simple
but significant.
The tide has turned. The atten-
ton of the manufacturers of the I'm
ion has been forced Southwark.
They have been met and undersold
in their own markets by compete
tors possessing neither experience
nor capital, and this has compelled
their attention. Unwilling as they
are to acknowledge it, they see with
business-like foresight that this is
only beginning-that every fur
mace in blast and every cotton mill
south of Mason and Dixon's line
will be multiplied many fold within
the next decade. An industry un-
dersold is an industry disabled. 1t
must either find market inaccessi-
BILE to its rival, cut down its expens-
es, go out of business, or locate up
on the enemy's ground and compete
on equal terms. This last is the on
ly solution. Markets are open to
all. Competition has already re-
duced wages to minimum. Weary
Of the unequal struggle and mind
full of certain defeat, the shrewd
business men of the entire country
are looking South and seeing there
the assurance of a glorious future
founded on a glorious present.

INTELLIGENT FARMING.

EDS. JoURNAL-Your article of
last week recommends the keeping
of farm accounts and better educa-
ton for farmers both of which can
not be urged too often. Yet farm
accounts will be found very small
factor in the farmers success and so
far as farm products are concerned
the results are quite as apt to be
against as in favor of the educated
farmer. Agriculture like medicine
is not an exact science. Farm pro-
ducts depend on rain, wind, sun
shine, heat, cold, soil, electricity
and numberless other influences no
one of which is alike on two sue
cessive years. The factors that mod
ity the results of the manufacturer
are not one to a hundred that come
in to vary the yield of farm crops.
Still farm accounts are helpful if
too much is not expected of them.
But as to education for the farm
er and his family, let every energy
be put forth first, last and always to
secure broad and thorough mental
training. Eventually this higher
education will give more complete
mastery over natural forces and bet
ter results from the farm. But q
more immediate result and more de-
sirable, will be the power to secure
commercial and political rights that
are now withheld. Professional pol
iticians, lawyers or uneducated far
mers can never become faithful and
efficient legislators for the agricul-
turist who will always be robbed by
trust and ''conspiracies" in a hun.
dred forms, until they are fairly rep
resented in legislative halls.
Schools are not the only means
for education. Libraries, Alliances,
newspapers, debating societies, To-
cal fairs and farmers clubs, Sunday
Schools and all social gatherings,
help to make the useful and pros
porous citizen. These are within
the reach of all and are very pres
ent good and also stepping stones to
the better education of the schools.

The largest electric railway sys-

Topeka, Kan. The plant has been
established at cost of 100000.
There are sixteen and half miles
OF track in the system. Richmond,
Va, has for some time claimed the
largest plant, but it only operates
twelve miles. A speed of fifteen
miles an hour can be easily attained
but Topeka only permits maximum
rate Of eight miles. The cars are

IDLE CONNECTS.

The convicts in New York pris-
ons are now lying idle because Of
the efforts Of labor agitators to pre-
vent them from being employed at
anything that would lessen the de-
mand for free labor. Idleness is not
what the convicts themselves de-
sire. The LATEST of them, if forced
to choose between such labor as has
been required in the prisons and
idle confinement in their cells, will
go to work. Joe Mackin, the noto-
rious Chicago politician, who was
convicted of committing election
frauds some years ago and is now
serving term in the penitentiary,
has been interviewed on the sub
ject. He says of the convicts:
eff they have not something to
do half of them will become raving
lunatics in little while. Why, you
will find men here Sundays begging
for work, for something to do to
keep from too close association with
themselves and their own thoughts.
| should be like them had | not
cultivated the habit and become an
inveterate reader. But the men who
come here and have no taste for
reading are not able, even by their
work, to keep from becoming prey
to their own broodings, and for that
reason they leave here worse than
they came. Take away their work,
and you take away the one thing
that now keeps these men out of the
insane asylum. * X 4 | have

pleasant hard work was, and how
much satisfaction and enjoyment
could be found in it. If | had not
bad hard work, / should have been
by this time a wreck and candi-
date for the Kankakee asylum"
Whatever may be Mackin's moral
character, he is man Of intelligence
and speaks from actual experience.
His word should therefore go along
way, and if it is believed, confne-
ment in the penitentiary, without
work to do, inficts punishment

Ex- EMPRESS EueENrE's QUIET LIFE.

EA- hmIhEoS EutbNiE QUIET LIFE
The ex Empress Eugene has few
companions at Marlborough, and those
who dwell there have accepted the mel
sncholy austerties of her life. She car
ried away with her from Camden House
TO Farnsborough all that she held dear
by association in the former place. When
she assumed her mourning robes, the
Empress laid aside for ever the splendor
Of dress and luxury of attire she once
owed so well. In leaving behind her
he jewels that set off her beauty, she
seems to have abandoned all the habits
and ceremonial of Court life. Her
establishment is comparatively modest {;
the stables contain but small number
Of horses, including the ponies she
drives herself; four or five carriages
stand in the coach-houses, with the i'm
perial escutcheon and crown emblazoned
on their panels; the servants and at
tendants arc not many, but they have
al been in her employment for a long
time and are devoted to her.
