For nearly three years the Due d Aumale has
been an exile from France. Famous as a SOL
der and beloved as one Of the best Of the Or
leanists, his departure was sorely felt by many
classes, for his only offense was in the tone of
a letter addressed to the president Of the ex-
perimental republic. By vote of two to one
the chamber Of deputies has permitted his re-
turn, and speculation is buzzing everywhere
about the consequences to French politics. To
some it portends harm for Boulanger, but the
latter himself hastens to applaud the return of
the duke and ostentatiously extends welcom-
ing hand. Yet it is quite apparent that the OBJ
ject Of the government is to introduce re-
straining influence upon the Orleanists and
prevent their coalition with the Boulangists
II is known that the duke has opposed the al
hanee Of the royalists with the Boulangists, but
it may be that he will be converted to it when
he returns to Paris.

The right of a laborer to sell his work where
he pleases has been recognized by the Mis-
souri, legislature in statute making it crimi-
nal offense for any person or persons to intim-
idate by threat or violence any workingman
to prevent his gaining or keeping employment
of any kind The object of this law is to re-
strain the labor unions from the persecution so
frequently visited upon workmen who prefer
to be Independent of them and control their
time and labor for themselves. In the courts
there has always been protection for such men,
but the new law makes the offense definite and
prescribes penalty that can be understood
distinctly.

The policy pursued by Great Britain in sub
sidizing the construction Of strong, swift and
large passenger steamers for Atlantic traffic
with a view to converting them into armed cruis-
ers in case of war is one the United States
might well study, if not adopt The English
vessels are built exactly as if they were to go
into the navy and are armed with riAed can
non and machine guns. They are to be of
steel, very strong, and without exception the
largest ships afoat. Should ~ demand it
they could be taken out of commission as pas
senger boats and at once manned by a crew
from the navy, when they would be turned
loose on the seas as commerce destroyers. The
construction of half a dozen such steamers in
this country would establish an American line
in Atlantic traffic and afford a reserve for the
navy in time Of need. That time may be al
ready at hand.

Froude, the historian, has declared for Irish
home rule. Not because he is a home-rrler,
but because he Is not one. He says Ireland is
unfit to rule herself, and, to make that fact
plain, the experiment should be tried. What
better course could the tory party follow than
to recall Balfour, repeal the crimes act, hberate
the members Of parliament they have impris-
oned and give the Irish people the chance
which even the hostile Mr. Froude comedies
should be granted them?

The magnitude Of the Fall River strike can
hardly be realized at this distance. Fifty mills,
5000 weavers, over a million spindles, are idle.
The aim Is to get an advance of wages, and
already some employers are Offering to COM
promise. The strike is 50 complete that it is
likely to succeed.

Good Things to Eat in Egypt.

In coming from India to Suez l met
an English gentleman who said he
supposed l would find nothing good to
eat in Cairo. He looked upon the
Egyptians as heathens and had no idea
that there were good hotels, good mar
kets. and all the modern convenieuces
at Cairo. have made inquiries as to
the cost of food in this capital of
Egypt and / find that good turkeys,
which will rank in size and weight
with the best of our Thanksgiving
birds, are worth from 81 to 81. 50 each;
goo3Sfat geese bring from s. to q per
pair Ind chickens sell from 40 cents to
81. Choice cuts of beef and mutton
bring 40 cents a pound. and the palate
of the foreign resident of Cairo is
tickled with splendid oranges at cent
each. All kinds of vegetables are
cheap and good. and eggs bring from
8 to 20 cents dozen-E. G. Carpan-
ter's Egyptian Letter.

AS TO OvERPRODUCTION,
An Impossibi!i:y Until All Human Needs
Have Heen Supplied.

nave SupPlicus
The employment of machinery and
other labor-saying inventions has in.
creased and cheapened productions,
yet they have not. nor will they ever,
keep pace with the increasing wants
| and demands OF advancing civilization.
The higher the civilization. the better
educated the people. the more it de-
velopes new and increasing wants and
desires. and to this there is no limit.
The wants OF the savage can be counted
on the fingers ends, while those peo-
pie in the high state of civilization
I have wants that are as numerous as
the stars in hcaven-there is no end.
The way out of the dilemma is not to
stop work and throw the people into
idleness and crime, but to cultivate
their desires by higher civilization
- they will crave for more. not less.
OF the good things OF this world. When
the people desire certain thing they
| exert them selves TO acquire it and not
before. 1t is ignominious folly to talk
OF an overproduction of goods while
half the people are suffering for those
very things which they tell US have
been produced in too great an abun-
dance There has been no overproduc-
ton of shoes "a long as there is one
person going barefooted or with holey
shoes on, or an overprOductlOn
in cotton cloth. wooden goods, or
any other article of comfort, until
every person in the land has all he de-
sires 10 make him comfortable and
happy. As long as there is one
person lifted or ill-clothed. who de-
sires to be better provided for, and is
willing to work to that end, there has
been no overproduction, but an UNI
joining of the equitable laws of pro-
duction and consumption is what is
the matter and what causes the trouble
