The American Nomad.

A curious outgrcwth of the rivalries of
American critics, is the practice that OBJ
tains so generally of offering bonuses and
pecuniary inducements to manufacturers
70 move their plant. After fire that
burned down part ofa sewing machine
factory recently, the owners received so
many proposals from aspiring cities that
wanted to take them in, that they were
obliged to publish notice to the effect
that only small part of their works had
been burned, and that they were not
open TO proposals for adoption. Any fac
tory or established business employing
labor can have its choice, nowadays,
foom long list of cities, new and old,
any one of which will give it a site for
factory, pay the expenses of moving, and
perhaps contribute substantially towards
the construction of aew building Peo-
pie who own land, or are engaged in bus
iness in cities, realize that it pays them
to have their cities grow, and they are
willing TO hire desirable inhabitants to
come to them. They rely upon getting
their money back in the increased value
of land. or the general increase in busi-
ness. The result is that the migratory
disposition already SO pronounced in
these days is intensified, and it has be-
come familiar thing not merely for in
dividuals 10 move, bu. for great aggrega-
tons of workingmen to shift the scene of
their activities from one city to another,
sometimes thousands of miles away.
Time was when where the acreage man
found himself living, there he continued
to live, unless circumstances Of excep-
tional urgency impelled him TO change
his residence. 1t is different now. Trans
portation has become so cheap, and tray-
el so easy, that the ties of locality sit
very lightly on the average American,
and the fact thft you find him settled
| this year in New York or Pennsylvania,
affords you very uncertain basis FOX ex-
pecting to find him next year in the same
/ place. When you hear of him again, il
! he hasn't moved to Texas, or Tacoma, or
Southern California, or Maine, or North
Dakota, You feel that he must have had
some exceptionally good reasons for stay
ing at home. Men used to wag their
heads, ard croak about the inability Of
rolling stones to gather moss. We have

A WORD ABOUT CATARRH.

Marriage with Drunkards.

The efforts to raise the poor and de-
generate inebriate and his family are
practically of no value as long as mar
riage with inebriates is permitted. Re-
Gently the legislature of the state of Vic
toria, in Australia, has passed law that
gives wife the right of divorce if the
husband is found to be an habitual
drunkard. II, after marriage she dis
covers that he is an inebriate, she can
also get divorce. The husband can do
thesame with wife, if she is proved to
be an inebriate. This is clear antici-
patton of the the higher sentiment which
demands relief from the barbarous law
which would bold marriage with an ine-
briate as fixed and permanent

morning Barnet Remer, a merchant in
Springfield township, Greene county, was
awakened by an explosion. and looking
from a window in his room found that the
store, which stood near his dwelling, was in
flames. The noise he heard was caused by
the explosion of can of powder, and as
this added TO the flames it was impossible to
save any of the goods.
The fire soon spread from the store to the
house and both were totally destroyed. The
total loss is about $1,000, which is partially
insured.
