Jules Ferry Will Return to Politics

PARIS, July l2.-Ihe most marked sign Of
the reaction against the violent prejudice which
drove M. Jules Ferry from active politics has
been shown in the Department of Vosges
where the man who defeated NJ. Ferry in the
elections for members of the Chamber of Depu-
ties by arousing the old prejudice against him
relative to the Tonqun affair was himself de-
feated by personal friend of NJ. Ferry. 1t is
believed that this will pave the way for NJ.
Ferry's early return to active politics. He was
so unpopular in 1889 that his bust at the Paris
Exposition was removed owing to the agitation
against him and the threats that it would be
mutilated in spite Of the guard.

The members of the Amateur Athletic Union
of the United States, who are to hold preim-
mary meeting in this city to arrange fol- the an

They were met at the depot by dele

whose guests they are and driven out in
tally-ho coach to Woodley Inn, where they
were dined The party then retured to the
city, and were taken to Analostan Island,
where a very hearty welcome was extended
them by President Hood, of the Columbias,
who spoke in his happiest vein. A
pleasant speech was also made by
Mr.. II. Perry, of the Coumbias.
Responses were made by Mr.. Mcmillan, of
Philadelphia, the president of the Union; Mr..
Fred Jansen, of Staten Island, and Messrs.
Livingston and Sullivan, of New York. During
the evening" which was a most delightful one,
the island was brilliantly lighted up by
numerous bonfires and quite dis
play of pyrotechncs. The Glee Club
of the Columbias also contributed their quota
to the entertainment of the clubs guests
No business of any kind has been transacted
as yet, but it is the present intention to hold
| a meeting on Monday, when the programme
| of sports for the annual meeting will be dis
cussed and decided upon.

A bill fixing eight hours as the limit of days
work for Government laborers was favorably
reported to the House last week. For years
there has been on the statute books a law in
tended to effect the same purpose, but it has
been practically dead letter from its enact
ment. There does not seem to be much use of
burdenng the statute books with laws of this
kind if Government officials are too negligent
or too cowardly to enforce them.

The New Assistant Secretaries

Gen. A, B. Nettleton, of Minnesota, has been
selected as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
under the provisions of the Legislative Exec
utiye, and Judicial Appropriation bill increas-
ing the number to three, and his nomination
will probably be sent to the Senate tomorrow.
The vacancy caused by the transfer of Assistant
Secretary Tichenor to the Board of Customs
Appraisers will probably be filled by the ap-
pointmept of Special Agent Spalding, but no
action will be taken in this case until the Senate
shall have acted upon Col. Tichenor's nomina-
tiOn

Imnortant PoliticaI A Action.

PARIS, July 12.-The most important politi-
cal action during the week was the decision of
the Superior Council of Commerce that in the
forthcoming tariff bill raw silk materials shall
be placed on the free list. The Temps, which
usually speaks the governments mind on such
occasions, says it considers this the most i'm
portant political action of the year, and de-
cares it assures the continued prosperity OF
Lyons over her Italian and other rivals.

In discussion of social questions recently it
was suggested that the United States Govern
ment in its treatment Of employees can and
should furnish an example for all large corpo-
rations, In most Of the Departments the hours
for labor are not unreasonable, and the average
salary paid is at least fair Thus in the two
most important respects the Government does
set an example that might well be initiated.
But there are yet some minor things that could
be improved There should be, for instance, an
hours intermissiOn at noon instead of one-hali
hour as at present. This would allow the clerk
to get lunch without danger of producing
dyspepsia and other ills by the too great haste
with which. under the present mode, he must
eat and drink. He would have time also fol
stretching the limbs and Strengthening the back
in a short walk, thus relieving the brain and
vital organs of their congested condition, due tc
so many hours of continuous writing at a desk
One hour noon would more than regain the ex
ira half hour in the increased Yigor of the clerl
for his afternoon work.

Twas IA Fraud.

The letter published yesterday morning under
date of Carlisle, Pa, purporting to give the
views of President Harrison concerning free
trade and protection, is not genuine, The
President's letter expressing his regret that
pressure of urgent public business would pre-
vent his acceptance of the invitation to attend
the National Progress Exhibition contained
nothing whatever of political nature.

Speedy Adjudication of Claims Under the

The House Committee on Appropriations yes
terday reported to the House an urgent bill
making gross appropriation of $636,2O0 to de-
fray the expense of employing 463 additional
clerks in the Pension Bureau, 1853 in the Record

Not long since on the pages of a leading
magazine an American millionaire expressed
his views concerning public benefactions. Dis
cussing the article a High School teacher said:
"I have often wished some of the generous
hearted millionaires might come in contact with
some of the things have. have seen girls Of
talent and ambition, doing fine work in the
high schools and eager for fuller course in
college, compelled by poverty to become wage
earners before fairly prepared. Tastes and
talents remain unsatslied and undeveloped, and
the best work in the world OF which they might
be capable is never done. II such girls could
receive loan without interest of sufficient
amount to pay college expenses, and the term
OF repayment made such that it could be done
with reasonable economy, many life would be
| completer and happier" The suggestion is
worthy of the consideration of all benevolent
minded millionaires

A letter on the tariff question, purporting to
have been written by President HARRISON in
answer to an invitation to attend a grangers'
exhibition at Carlisle, Pa, is going the rounds
of the press From the construction of the
sentences and the paplike consistency Of the
ideas enunciated on the tariff, there is a suspi-
cion that Baby MCKEE has been indulging in
his fondness for practical jokes at the expense
of his grandfather and the grangers. Anon G
the statements in the letter remarkable for bad
form and worse reasoning are the following:
''As there is no doubt that the farming element
of this country is the backbone of this Govern
ment, or any other free government, it is ne
cessary that they should understand this ques-
tion SO that they can choose between free trade
and protection, one of which would be ruinous
to the Government and the other would be pros
perity to the Government. This free trade ques-
| tion is dangerous one to handle, and if ii
should win in 1892 it would cause great distress
| throughout the land, something never expe
rienced by the American people" After perus
ing this nerveless ''stagger" at one of the
greatest questions of the day it is invigoratins
and refreshing to turn to CLEvELAND's bold
clear-cut and vigorous message on the same

RELIC OF FORMER DAYs.-Among
the finds which have recently come
into the hands Of JuJRNAL report
ers is a copy Of the premium list for
the OREGON state fair at Salem, Octo-
Der 1919, 1866. 1t is a little book Of
40 pages, four by five inches, printed
at the office Of the Agriculturist and

Barrows, recording secretary; ]. II.
Moores, treasurer; Mossrs. Dufur,
Naylor and Basket, vice presi
deuts. Messrs. L. NJ. Waite, w.
a. Mcpherson and G.. w. Hunt
were added to the board of manag.
ers. The last three and Mr.. PEBBLES
are all alive and hearty, all but Mr.
Mcpherson residing in Salem and
vicinity, Nc. being II Portland. In
glaucing over the superiatenden,s
and committees throughout the little
book the names are found of many
honored citizens of that time, since
passed away, but a goodly number
are still with Us, such as Fabritus

MRS. c. :. GRUBBE.

The Oregonian comments approx
ingly upon the selection of Mrs.
Grubbe 10y the Salem school board
as superintendent Of the Capital
CITY schools. The appointment is
one that has met with general favor
by our citizens. Mrs. Grubbe was
thrown into the position by circum-
stances, and she met the response
bili,y so well that it was not alto
ecther an experiment on the part OF
the board at Salem to give this lady
the appointment. She has borne
herself with becoming dignity and
signal ability at the head of the
Salem schools and will not allow
compliments or lndulgent friends to
prevent her from doing good work.
M,s. Grubbe has the earnestness,
and spirit, and brain, and breadth OF
sympathy required to he an educator.
whether it be in the pulpit, sanctum
or school room. In according her
the position at Salem the school
board have acted with the broadest
vision, and in marked contrast. so
far as doing justice regardless of sex,
to the action of the Portland school
board, if we may judge by the fol-
lowing just comment from the
Oegonian:
These positions women have at
;aiued by long and painstaking
service. They are by no means Sc
cure ir them. even in this city,
though backed 10y the records as
having performed most excellent
service. 1t is but necessary in proof
of this, to cite the recent displace-
ment by the board, of one Of the
lady principals, whose work was
most excellent, in order to give place
To a man who could certainly show
no better record" >"
In giving Mrs. Grubbe this place
the Salem school board have reflect
ed the better tendency of perfect
fairness and equality between man
and woman in these latter days.
