nothing in the household that remembers
Gods holy day: Can it be possible that
those who disregard this holy command
ment can be prospered for this life, or

Again, we ought to have in the Sabbath
the joy of Christian assemblage. Where
are all those people going on the Sabbath?
You see them moving up and down the
street. Is it festal day? people might
ask. Has there been sozae public edict
commanding the people to come forth:
No, they are only worshipers of God who
are going TO their places of religious SER
vice. In what delicate scale shall / weigh
the joy of Christian convocation. 1t gives
brightness to the eye, and a flush to the
cheek, and pressure to the hand and a
thrill to the heart. You see the aged man
tottering along on his staff through tie
aisle. You see the little child led by the
hand Of its mother. You look around and
rejoice that this is Gods day, and
this the communion Of saints. "One
Lord. one faith, one baptism" Some
familiar tune sets all the soul
aquiver and aquake with rapture. We
plunge into some old hymn, and all our
cares and anxieties are bathed of. The
glorious gospel transports us, the spirit
descends, Jesus appears, and we feel the
bounding, spreading, electric joy of
Christian convocaiion.

we have just charged, the demoraliza-
ton Of the public service under the
present administration would prove it
in bulk.
Justice, and the demands of the
service. require that very large part
of the removals made during Presi-
dent Clevelaud's term should be re-
viewed and reconsidered; and the fact
that President-elect Harrison is re-
former, and determined to bring the
civil service up to its former high
standard, carries with it the presump-
ton that great many Democrats
now in Office, and who will seek
shelter behind the letter of the Civil
Service law and rules. will be per-
emptOrily removed for cause. Under
a Democratic administration the Civil
Service laws have been operated to fill
the offices with Democrats without re-
gard to their efficiency. Under Re
publican administration they will be
operated to fill the offices with thoro-
ughly competent and honest men, Of
whom there are plenty, without re-
gard to other considerations, except
as to positions that all admit should
be flied with friends of the admins
tration. Under Republican admins
tration Civil-Service reform. Knocked
and discredited for four years, will be
rehabilitated and honestly enforced,
and it is unfortunate for a good many
Democrats that such will be the case.
They would have better chance for
holding on under the old spoila
system; even with the Republicans in .
power. than under reform admins
tration resolutely determined on re-
storing the efficiency of the public
service. Leader.

HARRISON'S CABINET.
Public Curiosity Relieved by Seven Oh
Eight Authentic Pointers.

Public Curiosity Relieved by Seven or
Eight Authentic Pointers.
There has been a great deal of spec
ulation in regard to General Harrison's
Cabinet, most of it wild and wide of
the mark. As there seems to be an
unusual degree of interest on the sub
ject the Journal will relieve public
curiosity by stating that General Har-
rison's Cabinet will consist of the fol-
lowing:
Secretary of State-A gentleman of
National reputation and large expe-
rience in public affairs, who will be
entirely free from snobbery and will
not attempt to compensate for his sub
serviency to strong powers by his
turbulence and brayado toward weak
ones.
Secretary Of the Treasury-A prac-
teal statesman and financier, who will
not violate the law to nurse the sur
plus. doctor the monthly debt state
ments to make the reduction appear
large. nor carry an enormous Govern
ment deposit in favored National banks
without interest.
Secretary of War-A man of mill
tary knowledge, who will not permit
any of his subordinates to issue orders
restoring captured rebel flags, or dis
charge women and children.
Secretary of the Maya real man,
and not one principally known for fol-
lowing the chase at paper fox hunts,
and as an aspiring society leader.
Secretary of the Interior-A WELL
known Republican who will not order
the department flag at half-mast when
distinguished Confederate dies, and
who does not engage in private land
speculations.
Postmaster-General-A prominent
Republican, who will begin to reform
the postal-service within an hour after
he has taken the oath of office. and who
will use his utmost energy to restore
it to its former efficiency. He will
also assist in the removal of some
Attorney-General-A lawyer of Ma
tional reputation. who will not own
any Pan-electric telephone stock.
We can assure our readers that this
is the only trustworthy information on
the subject obtainable at the hour of
writing. We should not like to say
that it comes direct from the Presi-
1ent-elect. but we do not believe he
will repudiate indianapolis Jour-

will open the world OF nature to them.
Education that will teach them their
relation to the nations growth.
You may have tried to reach some
lives by giving opportunities, but they
have not been used The fault is in
your methods. Wage-earning women
are not to be treated as charity students
forced to take an interest in that which
does not appeal to them.
Make yourself the center of a friendly
circle. and let the wants of that circle
hnd expression. Seek to meet that
want even If it is not in harmony with
your pet theory. II you work to do
good, you must learn to surrender your
finest theories before practical facts.
You must remember that the wage-earn-
ing woman who possesses the gift of
growth will not accept even her pleas
ures - charity; she must give not only
OF her brain but of her purse to accom-
plish any end that looks to her benefit;
she must bear her share OF response
bility for every possible good.
The men and women who are benefit
ing the world to-day are those who are
seeking to elevate the wage-earner in
his home. The money most wisely ex-
pended is that invested in buildings
making safety, light, air, abundance of
clear water, possible in the wage-earn-
ers' home. The women doing most for
their day and generation are those who
are concentrating their efforts on the
home and its surroundings. The work
which is telling most on the masses is
that which teaches the women and
children to make home the dearest spot
on earth, the shrine in which God is
found If peace and purity are found
there.
This work must be non-sectarian.
We can not afford, if we are to Amer
icanize those who have come to live
among us-we can not afford to miss
one of this great body who form so
large part of our national life.
The churches can not do this work;
they have a special part. 1t can not be
done by organizations; their field will
always be a limited one. 1t is the work
OF teaching, not preaching; of heart and
head, not head alone. 1t can be done
when every woman of education and
refinement shares with one other wo-
man the richness and fullness of her
own spiritual and intellectual life.
Every effort that imparts intelligence,
permits free expression. that tends to
teach self-government, that permits an
equal share in responsibility for its sue
cess, brings the wage-earning woman
that much nearer the point where she
can deal intelligently with all questions
affecting her own labor and wages;
makes her that much better fitted to be
the wife and mother of American citi-
zens- That is her destiny. What are
you doing to fit her for it?-Christian
Union.

UNJUST DISCRIMINATION.

The Efficient Services of Noble Women
Ignored While the Basest OF Men Have
Part in the Laws of State.
Year by year, almost month by
month. we carry to their graves the
noblest women, whose lives have been
blessings to the community. The news
paper press on such occasions gener
Ously bestows its praise for the service
such women have rendered. It reports
with good will the posts they held
which blessed the State and the nation.
Their private virtues and their inesti-
mable worth are duly credited. All
this is right as it should be. But the
pity Of it is that these women, able and
wise and interested to have good gov
eminent. are excluded by the laws of
the State from any power to help make
it so. Is it not time to consider what
the State loses by such exclusion?
Even as matter of good policy. to say
nothing OF principle, is it worth while
to continue to hold the sex to which
Abby w. May, Louisa Alcott, Lucretia
Croker, and Lydia Maria Child be-
longed. to the political status accorded
to idiots, lunatics and felons?
Take the case of Miss May, the peer
less woman who was lately carried to
her grave. Miss Mays life was a con-
slant benediction. When the last war
came it was at her home that the SAM
tary Commission was organized, and OF
this branch of it she was president until
the close of the war. She was one of
the founders of the New England Hos
pital for Women and Children. She
was the treasurer of the Cooperative
Dwelling-house Society. She was one
of the founders of the New England
Woman's Club, of the Woman's Con-
gress, and of the horticultural School
for Women. The Governor appointed
her on the State Board of Education,
which post she held for eight years
She was four years on the Boston School |
Board. All these were responsible |

the State put Miss May politically with

classes among men, denying her vote.
just as it denies it to them. The men
from the gutter have votes to make the
Government and laws worse. Miss
May had none to make them better,
though she was always petitioner for
her right to vote. The pity of it is that
all the folly and wickedness among men
represents itself in the Government,
while the wisdom and worth of women
s denied any share in it-Lucy Stone,

How President-Elect Harrison viii En-
force the Civil-Service Laws.
President-elect Harrison is a thor
ough-going Civil-Service reformer and
will enforce both the letter and spirit
of the Civil Service laws. But there
are some persons now in Office, a good
many in the aggregate, who need not
flatter themselves that their tenure of
office is assured by General Harrison's
reform ideas. The fact that he Is a
reformer necessarily implies that they
had better assume a virtue nobody sus-
poets them of and resign on March 4.
Such course on their part will save
them the embarrassment of being
kicked out.
Since Grover Cleveland became
President through bulldozing, ballot
box frauds and the permission of in
scrutable Providence, about eighty per
cent. OF all the civil-service employees
have been turned out to make room
