Since 1872. when under the editorial man.
agement of Mrs Mary Mapes Dodge. the pub
lication of 81. Nfctotds for young folks was be.
gun, 1t has led all magazines for girls and
boys. Nothing like 1t was known before. and
to-day, as the Chicago Inter- Ocean recently
said, " 1t is the model and idealjuvenile maya
zine of the world" Through its pages the
greatest writer's of our time are speaking to
the youth of America and England. and the
best artists and engravers are training the
eyes of the boys and girls to appreciate the
highest in art. Nobody knows how many
readers 81. Nicholas has. In the third largest
public library inAmerica,- that in 1ndianapo-
number.
Since the first issue Mrs. Dodge has remain

peoples magazines, Our Young Folks" 1.-THE

solidated with it, and its history has been one
OF growth from the first. Tennyson. Bryant.

Probably no one thing has caused such
a general revival of trade at E. c.. Will

The encounter between the Millers

The encounter between the Milers
and Walkers at BrownsDurg, Va, is
a most deplorable affair. In the
white heat of passion and resent
ment, over real or imaginary wrongs,
several useful and prominent men
and a woman were shot. The homes
are now desolate, the community
shocked and embittered, the living
participants in custody of the law,
and where's the good that viii ever
come of the tragedy either here OF
hereafter. So in the Kentucky en-
counter between Col. Goodoe and
Col. Swope over political matters.
Both dead. Grief and desolation in
the families and the wide circle OF
friends as both were men thigh so.
clal standing. The differences that
led to death were not grave enough
to Justify the dreadful deeds. There
are worse things in the world than
wounded honor. In this intelligent
christian age evils of that character
should remedy themselves. The law
and public sentiment are strong
enough to vindicate the best and
highest characters, bnt these lawful
courses are too slow for the sensitive
mind goaded on by resentment. A
deep seated hate turns the brightest
and noblest mind into the savage
state, and desperation becomes more
desperate in despair of revenge. In
despair there are no human feelings,
no home ties, no religions prompt
ings; to the gloomy mind and des
pendent soul, there is no silver lining.

The fare Allowances Issue.

It looks very much as if after Oct. cot

taken in this country which, all probable

world to recognize difference in the tare on

1t is probable that in bringing about this
change some difficulties will be encoun-
tered, but dou btless they can be overcome.
The otto I farmers have determi led that
they will no longer be at the mercy Of the

those who are in sympathy with them will

Ir seams to be pretty clear that the law
in this state does not permit any deduction
from the gross weight of cotton bale for
tare. At least, the law is so Construed. No
doubt the factor, with tde consent OF the
platter, could sell the cotton consigned to
hin with the recog lied tare allowance,
but that would require good
deal OF correspondence. explanation
and delay. A better way would be to nave
the law 50 amended at once as to permit
cotton 10 be Ii in accordance with tie

could readily lie enacted before Oct. l.
Withsuch law one of the dilncuitie in the

a Word of Advice.

The recent efforts of the MORNING News
to Induce the city and county authorities to
enforce the laws against selling intoxicating
liquors on Sundays, apparently meet with
very general approval There is an ordi-
nance prohibiting tie sale of spi ituous
liquors on Sundays. and there is a ate law
prohibiting the keeping open of tipping
houses on those days
The solicitor general may not always be
able to get evidence upon which to base IT,
dictments against those violati lg the Sun
day liquor law, unless be has the assistance
of the police, but the mayor is SO disposed
he can furnish the solicitor general the
necessary information through the police
1t is the duty Of the mayor to instruct
the police to keep strict watch upon all
the drinking places, and to inform upon all
saloon keepers disc lvered violating the
Sunday liquor law. After the mayor has
punished those arres ed for violating the
Sunday law, he should notify the solicitor
general that he has the names of persons
who have violated the Sunday liquor law.
and also the witnesses necessary to make
out cases against them. This is the course
he will pursue if he is in sympathy with
the effort to close the saloons on SUNDAYS.
There is no doubt that the sallons can
be kept closed on Sundays. All that is
necessary to accomplish that object is an
earnest and persistent effort in the right
direction. great many of the saloon
keepers would be glad to have the law en-
forced. The re is0n they don't close their
saloons on Sundays is that, if all the saloons
were not closed, they would loss a great
deal of their week day custom by doing So
The dete mlnatiol of few to violate the
law induces all to violate it.
The mayor has ance to render the
city a service in this matter that will be
appreciated With the hearty cooperation
OF the p lice there is no doubt that he can
enforce the Sunday liquor law so effectually
that not O single drink of WHISKY, beer or
any other intoxicant will be soil within the
city's limits on that day. Will he take a
firm stand in favor of sobriety on Sundays
II not, why2
The police ought to be glad to assist in
closing the saloons on Sundays. If the
saloons were closed they would have fewer
arrests to make on those DAYS, and the
probability of a serious disturbances, result
ing from the too free use Of whisky, would
bs removed. With thousands Of black men
idle on Sundays and all the drinking places
open, a riot is liable toSoccur. If one does
occur the responsibility for it will rest
largely upon those whose duty is to see that
the law against selling liquor on Sundays is
enforced.
