Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1890-10-10
ACRY FROM EURoPEs roILERs,

1t is curious that some of the most daring
and radical theories for the regeneration OF
mankind and the Encouragement of human
institutions that this age has known should
have their origin among the down-trodden,
perseeuted peasantrv of Russia. Count Toll
stoi is not of the class that suffers so inces-
sanity from the tyranny of landlords and
the swarm of Government officials who al
most literally live upon the Russian peas
ant, but he has introduced to the world a
book written by peasant. This book, en-
titled "Toil' and written by one Boudareff,
is a manifestation of that feeling of angry
unrest which possesses the toilers OF Eu-
rope. 1t is the protest of the Irish against
the swarms Of officials, nonresident land
lords and drones generally, in an
other form; it is the outcry of
the Germans at their military bur-
dens, although it is aimed particularly
at the ruling classes in Russia. Boudareff
finds a panacea for the sloth, corruption and
cruelty of the upper classes in the fulflment
by all men of the injunction laid upon
Adam by the Almighty to earn his bread
by the sweat of his brow. He does not say
that the peasants are to become gentle folks,
but that the latter should like the former
till the fields. If everyone performed his
share of manual labor, Boudareff holds, if
everyone Iabored in the fields to produce
bread, then sin and suffering, the frightful
selfshness and indifference of the leisure
class would give way to a state of society
such as Christ ordained. Exaggerated and
impracticable as much of Boudareff'S doc
trine is, it is significant as a symptom of the
exasperation Of European toilers with the
taskmasters who under this excuse in one
country, and that in another, rob and wrong
them at every turn.

THE VISITORS DEMONSTRATE A NEED

Surprise and modification at the want of
hotel facilities have been the feelings in
spired in Pittsburgers by the difficulty of
rightly housing the hundreds of visitors OF
the Iron and Steel Institute. But this ina
bility is in itself specially, though uncom-
fortably, instructive to our foreign guests.
IF they will be told that the hotel accommo-
dation of Pittsburg have trebled within the
past 20 years-and it now looks as if these
extensive - they will understand how our
American cities grow. 1t is a fact that 20
years ago the Monongahela House, the St.
Charles, the Central and the Robinson
House made up the list of Pittsburg hotels.
To these have since been added the Seventh
Avenue, the Anderson the Duquesne, the
Hotel Schlosser, and probably twice as
many again of smaller hosteleries. Yet on
important occasions we find visitors COM
PEELED to go to private houses or to office
buildings for the rest and entertainment
which should more sumptuously be
furnished them bv "mine host of the inn."
However. emergencies havetheir uses; they
l.
at least one or two more hotels larger than
any now in the city. The country around is
so thickly populated, and the city is becom-
ing such a great mercantile and manufact-
uring center, its hotel needs will be con-
stantly increasing. Just at this time the
activities of the fall trade and the crowds at
the Exposition cause special rush. But
even the normal condition OF affairs de-
mands more hotels. There is nothing in OBJ
lection that ground is too high priced. In
the lower part of the city prices are very
steep; but the cable cars and the coming
electric cars have made some of the upper
streets equally or more eligible as sites for
large caravansaries; and this property may
yet be had no more than as many hundred
dollars per foot as thousands are charged for
property in the lower districts. From the
Court House to Oakland, Fifth avenue is
especially available for such new enter
prises; other quarters are also to be named
This will be one of the early future devel-
opments of the town. Such affairs as the
Institute session show the need, and it will
be quickly supplied. Meantime, Americans
travelling in Europe had until few years
