The dispatches tell us that the Players
club of New York rejected the applica-
ton of Col. Robt. Ipgersoll for member
ship III that club on account Of his
peculiar religious views" The Play
srs club is, presumably, a purely social
organization, and if SO its action in this
matter is as peculiar as 1ngersoll's relig-
ious views can possibly be. 1t is spe-
cies of prescription that will have the
effect of strengthening instead of weak
ening his peculiar religious views in the
minds of many, the very thing, doubt
less, that the members of the club
named desire to avoid or prevent

particulars. State boards are often very

No member of the Salisbury cabinet
was present at the lord mayors dinner
to Mr.. Phelps, it appears; under the cir
cumstances perhaps it was not to be ex-
pected that any of them would be. Bit
it was a very distinguished gathering
notwithstanding, -Robert Browning is
quoted as saying the most distinguished
ever assembled on such an occasion.
The comments of the London newspa-
pers vary widely in tone and temper
The Times approves the dinner and
eulogizes the departing minister The
godspeed we wish to give Mr.. and Mrs
Phelps" it remarks explanatorilv, sis
not formal diplomatic courtesy, but an
interchange of familiar kindness among
kinsmen" The Standard thinks the
dinner was ''inopportune if not indecor-
GUS" The News wishes Lord Salisbury
had gone to it. The Chronicle hopes the
Americans won't construe it as IAN act
of vicarious penitence." The Post thinks
it shows ''the calm strength of English
public sentiment" The Pail Mall
Gazette doesn't see any good reason for
it. MIR. Phelps is a commonplace
diplomat who has done average work, y
remarks that vinegarlsh journal, ''and
we will bid him goodbye without
emotion or regret"

PURPOSES which the administration may
think desirable in view of the Samoan
cffpleasantfless. --
Wichita eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1886-1890, 1889-01-30

Members generally, writes the Wash
ington correspondent of the New York
Journal of commerce, are taking greater
interest in this Samoan matter than in
any subject brought before congress tex
cept the tariff for many years, and the
document rooms have been cleaned out
of all reports bearing thereon. 1t is said
that the entire clerical force at the Ger
man legation in this city has been busily
employed for several days in translating
for transmission to Berlin the expressions
of American newspapers. This last re-
mark is worthy of especial note. Such
information. will beyond question, dis
abuse the German mind of the senti-
ment of this people.

With twenty-six millions of available
men who can be put in the field and ao-
lively employed in military operations
almost in day in Europe and the APP
parently universal desire for hostilities
over there. it would seem that the states
manship of the leaders would be taxed
to maintain peace, rather than in finding
an excuse to break 1t. \ conflict could
hardly occur between any two of the
powers that would not involve the con-
tinent in struggle, and the stupendous
preparations already made and still
making for war, and the almost u1lim-
tied proportions as to the number of men
and interests that would be involved,
causes one TO shudder at the thought Of
war in Europe at this time.

Rev. Edward Everett Hale asks the
legislature of Massachusetts to pension
school teachers who have served fifty
consecutive years. The proposition is
not without merit. Person who have
adopted teaching as a life profession and
faithfully spent the best years of life to
it are certainly entitled to maintenance
when they are.too old or infrm to pur-
sue their vocation, which may be class
ed as a public benefaction. The pro-
posed plan would no doubt serve to slim
ulate many not only 10 greater efforts to
become efficient in the work but also to
continne in it, 1t is a fact, that the
professional school teacher is rarely ever
able to lay by anything for rainy day,
and after pursuing it for few years
give it up and engage in some other cali
ing that promises greater compensation.
Mr.. Hale's plan would never become
burthensome if it were universally
adopted, because the state would receive
pay In advance for whatever amount it
might be called upon TO expend in that
way, in increased efficiency in the school
room.

The stoppage of work on NJ. de Les
sep's big ditch will mean the turning
loose of good many thousands of work
men Of various races, colors and previ-
GUS conditions of poverty and criminal
ity upon the community, and that will
be very black lookout for the commu-
nifty. A large proportion of them haven't
money enough to leave the isthmus,
there is no chance of other employment
there for them, and they will be fairly
driven to pilfering and pillage for live
hhood. 1t is good thing that there are
Two or three men-of-war close at hand,
and the number might well be increased.

WHINING ALREADY.

The New York World recognizes
the stInginess of New Workers, and
it contains the following half
hearted whine:
The General Committee OF the
Worlds Fair, at its meeting yes
terday, failed to come up to expec-
tation. 1t adopted report from
the Site Committee which still
leaves Central Park to ravishment,
though the majority of the Com
mittee maintain that the park will
only be abused when il is known
that private property owners in the
neighborhood are illiberal. The
paltry report of the Finance Com
mittee was agreed to, with the ex-
ception it was decided that Guar
antee fund of IS 900 900 would pe
raised, not dollar OF which shall
be called for until the entire
amount is subscribed. A suhscrip
ton paper was passed and $685.
600 was set down. The subscrip-
tons soon dropped down to small
sums and Judge Hilton called a
halt. With such a body as that
which assembled yesterday in the
City Hall not less than 81 900, 900
should have been subscribed. We
regret to say that the impetus
given the Worlds Fair project yes
terday was not great. In fact, tie
general effect of the meeting OF the
General Committee was anything
but inspiring.

THE WEST POINT cApETSHIP.

The Times Review says Henry
Cutting, the youth who was APP
pointed to the West Point Cadet
ship by Congressman Woodburn,
has failed to pass the examination.
Now let Congressman Bartine
adopt the Democratic method and
give every yonng man IN the
State, who feels disposed to do SO,
opportunity to compete for the
position. A West Point Cadetship
is a public position, and it should
be open to competition. The peo-
pie maintain the Academy and
there is no good reason why Con-
eressional favorltes should be select
ed to fill it when more capable and
deserving young men would compete
for the position if they were given
opportunity.-Silver State.

The following is a sample OF bosh
from the Tacoma Globe:
"Tbe fact is that for the present,
Nevada is not In an eviable situa-
ton, but occupies the position OF a
poor relation in the family OF States
and it is to be hoped that she will
some day strike another Comstock
lode or other attractive resource
that will increase her population.
The sage brush and alkali deserts
are not likely to do it,
The main trouble with Nevada,
is the fact that it is being written
up every few days in the newspapers
by list of cranks who have never
spent two consecutive days in her
boarders.
Nevada is AMPLY able to take
care OF itself. A State that saved
the Union at a critical period by
furnishing the sinews of war is able to
save its own bacon also.
We are inaugurating a system Of
irrigation in Nevada that will
quadruple its population and make
it one OF the most attractive States
in the Union.
The inhabitants of this State are
perfectly we'll satisfied with it, and
need no sympathy, potatoes or old
clothes from abroad.

A mining scheme under the v

A mining scheme under the very
religious title of st. Peters Con-
solidated Gold and Silver Mining
Company has come to grief in st.
Louis. The "mine" is alleged to
be in Nevada and the charge is
made that it never produced cent
and that the Secretary openly paid
dividends out of the sale of the
stock. We don't know anything
about such a mine, except that 1t
isn't in Tuscarora district. Tus-
carorans generally expect postum
nous courtesy and favor from the
celestial Iate-keeper, and have too
much respect for him to conduct q
swindIing scheme in his name
