AS general thing, 1t is worth advice
as it is with taxation-we can endure
very little of either II they come to us
in the direct way. They must not
thrust themselves upon us. We do not
rel sh their knocking at our DOORS, be-
sides they always choose such incon-
venient times and are forever talking OF
arrears.
Advice on the other hand, is sure of
a hearing when it comedies with our
previous conclusions; and therefore
comes in the shape of praise, or of en-
conragement.
We can endure it's being addressed to
us by another. when it is interviewer
with regret at some error, not OF our
own.
There Is a wide difference between
the advice which is thrust upon you and
that which you have to seek for When
You have to give advice. you should
never forget whom you are addressing,
and what kind of advice he prefers.
Your advice should never degenerat tie
into comparisons between what would
have been your conduct and what was
your friends. In fact most Of our mis-
fortunes are more sufferable than the
comments and advice OF our fvisnds-

Yielding to Popular Pressure.

There has come sudden and ~ sharp
and significant break in the continu-
itv of Endorsements of high tariff by
Republican conventions. Hitherto all
the State conventions OF the Republican
party held this year and such of the dis
trict and county conventions as adopted
resolutions have approved the Mckinley
bill, suchimportant conventions as those
OF Ohio and Pennsylvania sanctioning
that bill even after 1t became reasonably.
certain that the Senate will materially
modify it. But the convention in Min
nesota, for years looked upon as the
most radical and uncompromising Of all
Republican States, not merely avoided
commencing the, Mckinley bill but it
ignored the probabilities of Senate al
terations and actually points the way to
free trade by favoring reciprocity with
South and Central America and by de
handing that all articles manufactured
or controlled by trusts and monopolies
be put on the free list.--Clsveland Plain

STEWARDS ON SHIPS.


They Do Not Get Much Salary But They
Receive Big Tips
The stewards of an ocean steamship
are combination of walters and cham
bermaids. Their wages are small be-
cause their tips are big. The head
steward, however, gets a good salary, as
he has little opportunity for tips. But
he occasionally makes small fees by
buying provisions of contractors who
will give him personal discount to get
the order. The rest of the stewards are
divided into saloon stewards, bed room
stewards and pantry men. The former
are in reality walters The pantry men
make a little extra money in an under

not The pantry man is expected to

it, however He sells 1t to the steerage
passengers instead He incurs great
risk, but apparently is willing to on ac-
count ofsthe prospective gains.
When the passengers are about to
leave the ship the stewards appear to
be in a dozen places at once. They
become very adept in" shadowing their
own particular charges during the
voyage, and are always at hand
to. receive whatever may be given
to them. The amount varies, but each
single passenger gives the bedroom
steward and the saloon steward $40 be-
tween them. For family the average
tipis $40 to each. The best berth for
steward is probably upon an Australian
liner, and in many cases the men pay a
bonus for the position. Their pay aver
ages only about IS month, whilo tho
tips will run up as high as 975 trip.
The harvest is usually on the passage
out to Australia, most curious circum-
stance, for the outward passengers can
i'll afford the tips. On the homeward
trip the voyagers as a rule, have plenty
of money, and yet their tips are smaller.
This is largely due to the fact that II
has not yet become fashionable to fee
servants in Australia. Long residence
there has gotten the people out of the
way OF giving tips, and they do not
think of it The custom is growing,
however.
The stewards lives are not very even
ones by any means They have their
disappointments and reyerses They
are made particularly weary by passen-
gers who keep. them busy during the en-.

FEDERAL SUPERVISION.
Measure Obnoxious a Republican
Form of Governments.

Measure Obnoxious to Republican
Form of Government.
The purpose OF the Republican party
In the Federal elections bill is to place
the election of members of the House of
Representatives under the control of
Federal office-holders, and its scope is
such that it will virtually control the
election Of the various State officers,
abrogating State laws enacted to secure
fair elections.
The bill provides for the appointment
of chief supervisor in every judicial
district in the United States. There
are seventy OF these districts.
The chief supervisors appoint three
supervisors for each voting precinct,
who are practically to conduct the cleo
ton. Two of these officers are to be
selected from one party and the third
from the opposite party, but the mai or-
: ity are to have the power to decide upon
all matters that come before them. This
Is very cunningly devised scheme for
partisan purposes.
All OF the~~election machinery is
placed in the hands Of partisan boards,
and they can return as elected to Con-
gress whoever they may see fit, the
States having no power to control their
action in counting the votes or certify
ing to the returns. nor can they pun
ish them for any crimes or frauds COM
mitted under this bill
The promoters of this bill know in
advance that nine out OF ten OF the
chic supervisors appointed will be Re-
publicans; they will appoint the super
visors at each voting precinct, and it
is absolutely certain that two of these
mon will BIO Republicans, who will have
complete control of the board.
Deputy marshals are to be appointed
without limit as to number, to attend
upon registration and voting. The
bill authorizes these Federal officers to
make house-to-house canvass through
out each district The doors of every
dwelling must be flung open to these
partisan spies, many of whom will be
negroes and all questions about the
family history which they may be dis
posed to ask must be answered, or arrest
and Imprisonment will follow.
No scheme could hayo been devised
by the worst enemies Of the South
better calculated to renew sectional
hatred.
A bill more obnoxious to a Republic
can form of government was never pre-
scented to Legislative body. Its pur-
pose is wholly partisan, and emanated
from few politicians whose desire is
to perpetuate themselves in power,
though to do so 1t be necessary to revo-
lutiopize the Government and take
from the people the last vestige Of their
rights
1t is the first attempt in the history
Of our Government to wrest from the
people the election of their represent ia
-tives and place 1T iG the hands of an i'm
mense army of Federal officers.s
This bill, in my judgment should it
become law, WILL revive the old Sec
tional feeling andy bring about CON
dict between the white. and colored
aces 1t will turn back the wneels OF
progress and depress the industries not
only IN that section but throughout
the entire country. The business and
fair-mindId men Of the North, without

most vigorous manner against the pass

III the railroads could only recover
the amount that IL stolen from them

merous things that the roads have to.
contend against in the conduct of their
business. There are gangs of men
whose only business in life is robbing
freight cars. They combine for this
purpose and systematically go to work
in the execution of their nefariouss de-
signs. They may have been railroadz
men at one time themselves. At all
events they are thoroughly posted on
the ways and methods of running freight
trains. They may have accomplices
among the men in the freight houses.
These know what are in the cars and
where the most valuable haul can be
made. Some OF the freight handlers in
Chicago may know for instance, that a
certain car is loaded with cases of silks
or velvet from Marshall Field & Co. s.
They will take the number and descrip-
ton Of the car in which the goods are
placed and then send communication
to the thieves outside to the effect that
car No. -, in train No. -, leaving
Chicago on such and such line at
specified time, contains valuable goods
OF such and such description. Tho
thieves wait for the train at some cross
ing on the outskirts Of the city where
1t has to slacken speed. They
can jump on the side rails and get
a secure footing while the train
is running at a rate of eight or ten miles
an hour. As many as half dozen of
them can hold on by those rails at once
and any one seeing them there would
merely suppose they we're stealing
ride. Before the train has arrived at
the next station, however, they have
pried open the doors, concealed them
selves in the inside and got ready to
make big haul. They are experienced
enough to know what cases contain the
most valuable goods. Once in the car
IL Is easy for them to secure their booty
and escape undetected Most Of these
robberies are committed in or near the
large shipping centers, whore the cars
are likely to be detained for some time.
Very few of them are done outside at
country points. There is not so much
opportunity there and there would be
more risk of being detected. Thieves
generally prefer large centers of popu-
lation, any way. 1t is easier for them
both to secure their booty and to dis
pose OF it. once they have possessed
themselves of it. The loss to the roads
from raids of this kind would amount
to many thousands OF dollars each year,
but 1t is just as impossible to prevent
them as it is to prevent HOUSEKEEPING.
Once in while some of the thieves are
caught, out that does not deter others
from continuing the evil practice ~
