GLADSTONE ON AMERICA,
Tribute to the Mon of the EevoIutfo


Mr.. Gladstone made an address at Chester,
Eng. recently, on the condition of the
working classes He Contrasted the Eng
lish workman's position today with that of
90 years ago, showing that during the half
century there has been an increase OF so per
cent. i'll wages, while the cheap food and
clothing now obtainable are bettot than
heretofore. In conclusion he urged Eng
lish workmen to study the history of the
American revolution. He claimed that it
was by and from England that a love of
freedom was sown in America, England
now in turn reaped advantages from the
American vindication of those principles of
freedom which animated the revolution.
The system Of government in America COM
biEed that love of freedom, respect for law
and desire for order which formed the surest
elements of national excellence and great.
ness. 1t Yves no extra vagary to say that,
although there were only 1000 900 of peo-
pie in the 13 States at the time of the reco-
luton, the group of statesmen that pro-
ceeded from them were match for any in
the whole history of the world, and were
superior to those of aIy one epoch. Their
fortunate appearance was undoubtedly due
to well regulated muscular freedom,

The Book of Job Only a Poem.

Prof. e. L. Curtis Of the McCormici
Theological Seminary startled the Orthodox
congregation of the Westminster Presby-
terian church at Rockford by declaring in
his sermon his belief that the book of Job
is only poem written by some pious Jew
that the hook was only parable, and that
Job and the other persons mentioned were
but the creatures OF poetical fancy. He gave
as one of the reasons for this belief that it
was not reasonable to suppose that any
man who had become SO reduced by fasting
and bodily suffering could utter such lofty
poetical SENTIMENTS as ere asoribed to Job.

Emile de Laveleye, the distinguished
French writer, says that one hundred
years hence, setting China aside, Russia
and the United States will be the two
colossal powers of the world. The fu-
ture of China is the problem of pubicists.
China is sleeping giant whose strength
is unknown. When she wakes and stirs
herself, as she shows disposition to do,
the world will be compelled to respect

The suggestions that our flying squad
ron, composed of the Chicago, Atlanta,
Boston and Yorktown, should take trip
along our own coasts before going to
European waters, is not a bad one, in
the opinion of the New York Journal,
which says: Anything is good which
will stir up the enthusiasm of the country
about our ships, and prompt demand
for the best, and for plenty of them.

The Journal of United Labor, the
official organ of the knights of
Labor, summarizes the result of
affairs in the industrial field since
the election of MIR. Harrison and
finds that the last four months have
been a constant succession of shat-
downs and reduction of wages liz
every industrial center; that tho
most pefectly appointed steel plant
in the world has locked horns with
the association workers; that the
building tfades Industries thr6ngh=
out the country arc striking for
hours and wages with different
success, winning in one place only

of coal and iron, although not
many of them are on strike at
present time, are passing through
a season of life and death strug-
Cling with poverty, working only
quarter time at the poorest wages;
aand that tho average factory op-
eratives find themselves forced to

SON for their eleven and twelve
hours of slavish toll with scarcely
ray OF hope for better things this
side of the grave 1t sums it all
up by saying that there has never
been a time since the panic of 1878
when there were SO many of this
eountry's citizens idle as at the
present time, and never since the
war have wages paid to labor been
SO very meagre. This gloomy pic
ture shows that high tariff does
not make work plenty and wages
good, as the Republican party told
the people last fall. Events speak
more forcibly than abstract argu-
mentss and the workingmen of the
United States cannot be again de-
ceived by INSCRIPTIONS pciftfcians. -

THE BEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER.

There is no general newspaper in
this country that win compare in a
bility, in amount of reliable news and
value of its general reading with the
Tribune, and none that we can more
cordially commend.
The New York Tribune is not dis
mayed in the slightest by the recent
local elections, and it comes up bright
and smiling this week as strongly Re-
publican as ever and with an annual
prospectus brimming over with won
derful attractions. The Tribune while
always a newspaper dominated by one
mind, and stamped all over with the
individuality of its editor, has, never
theless, always had an editorial staff
which was a sort of college of bright
and able spirits, each one of them a
specialist in some line Of study and
thought. The Tribune carries the idea
little further this year by adding to
the college, as il were, number of
special lectures, or in other words it
has provided for series Of special con-
tributions by well known people and
specialists, of very great interest and
ability. Both sides of several such
questions as Unlimited Silver and
Trusts are to be given. These special
articles, which will cost many thou
sands of dollars, and will appear in the
Tribune only, are worth far more than
the 81 or 81 which will enable any of
our readers to enjoy them all. The
Tribune will also print a new series of
Stories of the War during the year, in
addition to its g. A. r. page, and it
offers large cash prizes for the best
three Of these stories. There is often
a twinkle of humor in whatever the
Tribune does and this year there is a
very merry twinkle in its list of special
prizes to the men who get up the lar
gest clubs. Its prizes aggregate 81
440 in value and among them is one
which is certainly amusing and ingen-
ious. "a trip to New York with ho-
tel bills paid for week and theater
tickets every evening"" is certainly
something original in way of rewards.
The Tribune is the official newspaper
If the Republican clubs. Republicans
who want National paper of their
political faith win find the Tribune
his year more worthy than ever of
heir attention. We hope all our sub
scribers win take it this year. See club

The matter of desertion is serious
one to be considered. The public has
an impression that they are increasing.
Figures do not show this, yet the per-
centage is much larger than il ought to
be. The causes for this are numerous.
Among these may be mentioned disap-
pointment regarding the nature of the
service, dislike of the restraints of
discipline, dissipation, and it may be in
rare instances, abusive treatment. 1t is
said that only one in five of the desert
ers are ever caught. The general pub
lie winks at the crime even if il consid-
ers the act crime. Several things are
suggested as preyentatiyes, most of
which bear in one direction, that of
making army life more agreeable. The
Secretary has already introduced some
changes that have this object in view.
His idea is to make the service worth
seeking, then desirable men will enter
it and remain in it. The establishment
of Pos, schools is recommended in which
lessons and lectures shall be given. An
appropriation to furnish textbooks and
apparatus should be made. There
should be q code ofpunishment fitted to
times of peace, less severe but more
certain than in times of war. Give a
soldier the privilege of purchasing his
discharge under certain well-defined
Keep back part of the
soldiers pay which he must forfeit in
case of desertion. Call the civil au-
to aid in the arrest of desert
ers. The drift of proposed changes
is to make Of the soldier more of a man
and give greater efficiency to the laws
against desertion.
