that favored region in which Corn is
King.
TO enable all to visit this 'EighthWon
der of the World the Chicago &
North Western Railway will sell Excur-

Mr.. Geo. W. Gable, whose Southern
nativity, intellectual ability and wide
observation give to his opinions pecu-
liar value, is credited with the following
statement concerning the solution of
the race problem in the South:
s'My opinions he says, have been
influenced by talk about the new
South. The only new South is the
Industrial South, and the change there
IS only partial and along the line of the
mineral belt. Henry ". GradY's
speech at the New England dinner at
New York meant little. He has eaten
his words repeatedly. At the Texas
Agricultural Fair. few months ago,
he called on an audience he was ad-
dressing to defend to the last drop of
their blood the principle of the white
mans domination Of the negro. My
own notion is that the true Southern
problem is not whether the white man
shall dominate the negro or the negro
the white man. II it were / suppose I
should have to declare in favor of the
whites. But the problem is. whether
American citizens shall not enjoy equal
rights in the choice of the rulers. 1t is
not question of the negroes right to
rule It is simply question Of their
right to choose rulers, and, as in re-
construction days, they selected more
white men for Office than men of their.
own race, they would probably do so
now. I would not insist on the mixing
OF whites and negroes in schools. The
end to be gained is education. and if
the negro encounters any objection the
wisest thing for him TO do is to waive
his right aud file q bill of exceptions.
But the South is wasting millions every
day by refusing to educate its colored
| population, and whatever Mr.. Grady
may say, there never can be a perma-
nent and coherent new South that is
not founded on stable political and
: educational system. z

The great London strike IS ended.

LIE great LOQuOus StIlhe Is tuueu. "A
compromise was satisfactorily brought
about by the lord mayor and agreed
to by all the dock labors. They have
all returned to their work and the
greatest strike on record has been con-
cluded without disturbance or serious
trouble.
Here is the correct sentiment An
exchange Says: The person who freely
feeds a tramp only encourages the
tramp nuisance. Do not feed a strange
man unless he offers to work for his
meal. There would be no such thing
rs a tramp if they had to eat bread by
the sweat of the brow. A professional
tramps is simply a man who will not
work.
Winona Republican: Young men and
women of rich parentage make a mis-
take if they neglect the opportunity, as
they are growing, to acquire knowledge
of useful trades and household arts. It
is not question of money; not a case
for hired help. II means inde pendence,
health, strength, cheerfulness, grace,
physical development and a long list of
social qualities and proportions. Mag
nificent endowments are being placed
by thoughtful men for the encouragement
Of the idea that labor should be trained.
and that it should be popular also.
The great excitement, which prevails
in Wisconsin over the discovery of pearls
in tie clans of certain rivers of that
state, has led parties here to believe
that the Minnesota contained the same,
and last Sunday, Messrs. Heideman.
Whitney and Cady spent the day in
fishing for shells. AS a result of their

The trouble is, my friends, that the
people do not understand the ethics of
going into debt, and that if you pur-
chase goods with no expectation of pay
ing for them, or go into debts which
you cannot meet, you steal just SO much
money. II go into a grocer's store,
and [ buy sugars, coffees and meats,
with no capacity to pay for them, | am
more dishonest than if I go into a
store, and when the grocer's face is
turned the other way I fill my pockets
with the articles of merchandise and
carry Of a ham. In the one case take
the merchants time and the time of his
messenger to transfer the goods to my
house, while in the other case | take
none of his time, and [ wait upon my
self, and transfer the goods without
any trouble to him. In other words, a
sneak thief is not so bad as man who
contracts for debts he never expects to
pay.-Dr. Talmage.
