The labor organizations of the country are
in q position just now to do u double good. to
the cause Of iabo. and TO the eause of good
government. The census enumcrators in GER
tain mining districts IN Pennsylvania find a
large class OF foreigners, who refuse to give
their names and who arc only known to their
employers by numbers as conyicts are desig-
mated. The enumerators desire TO report
these men by numbers simply and to this
supt. Porter objects on the ground that it is a
degradation OF labor-of man himself-which
cannot DO officially recognized How to do
otherwise is not clear unless the labor organi-
cations take hold Of the matter and iustruc,
this class at once in the duties il owes to ITSELF
to labor and to the government.

A member of the National Temperance Con-
rresS, Mr. Wakeman, created SENSATION by a
very simple statement-that the working man
Ia more easily enlisted by showing him wha. q
poison liquor is than by preaching prohibition
from the standpoint OF holiness. Another re-
mark that has u good deal of timeliness and
hard sense in it was that Of Mr.. Cutting. who
said that the right way to diyest the saloon of
it9 attractions for the Iniserably poor was TO
supply the miscrably poor with improved
dwellings. or course this statement is only
true so far as it implies aid or encouragement
and no. charity pure and simple.

travelled without ticket. The gentle-
man said he had not; SO the man asked
him to lend him his ticket, that he
might show him how it was done, and
Degan fiddling about with it, but pre-
tended that the story had suddenly
slipped out of his head, but that he
would be sure TO remember it soon,
After time the train got near New
York, and, as the man still could not re-
member the story, he returned the gen
tleman his ticket (after tearing bit off
OF it) and started for the door. This
struck the gentleman as being very curl
GUS, and SO he watched the man. When
he was reached by the conductor and
asked for his ticket he said he had

and, after deal Of alteration the man
pulled some silver out Of his pocket
and was about to pay his fare, when he
