Economy in the Use of Words.

A contributor to the Christian
Union makes some suggestions of
economy in the use of shorter
words in writing. Some facts in
respect to the employment af words
are not often mentioned. Words
are born, live and die like human
beings; never a year passes but
some new word is born, takes it's
place among the family of words
and becomes helpful. Words that
have long served use in language
die, or might as we'll die, for they
fall into disuse. More words are
born than die; this is because die
tionaries continue to hold on to
them after they are practically
dead. This being so, the English
language is gradually increasing in
number of words. Probably about
every man and woman past middle
age can call to mind some word
once in common use, now entirely
abandoned. The employment OF
words raises an economic inquiry
there are long words in our Ian
guage which add to the labor OF
writing. If the extra time in pro
ducing these on paper over those OF
ordinary length, could be com
puted, it would be found that
weeks and even months of the life
of a man, whose business consisted
largely in writing, had been con-
sumed in producing long words.
The work of substituting shorter
words for long ones is difficult

Washington Letter.

The President is much pleased
that the Conference committee has
agreed and the House and Senate
passed a pension bill. The new bill
is the result of compromise, the
Senate cOnferees withdrawing the
dependent feature, and the House
conferees withdrawing the service
feature of the bill which had previ-
ously passed the House. This
makes disability measure of the
new bill, which will become law in
a few days. Representative Nor
rill estimates that the new law will
add about $36, 600, 900 per year to
the pension expenditures of the
government. The new bill limits
the charges of pension agents to
ten dollars for each claim prepared
under it.
The silver question is becoming
quite interesting in the Senate, the
Finance committee having after
adding several amendments to the
caucus bill which passed the House
last week, reported that measure
favorably, and Senator Morrill, has
given notice that he will, at the
proper time, offer the House bill as
a substitute for the Jones bill
which the Senate has been discuss
inc for several weeks. After to-
day the speeches on the subject, in
the Senate, will be limited to five
minutes.
The House Republican caucus has
agreed to consolidate the Rowell
and the Lodge Federal election
bills. After that is done another
caucus will be held to determine
whether the bill shall be pushed
through at this session or left over
until next winter. If the House
should pass it, it is extremely
doubtful whether it could be gotten
through the Senate.

Gov. FIFER has called special
session Of the legislature and Chi
cago will very shortly be able to
raise the limit on the world fair
to a sum which will be ample for
every possible call that can be made
upon that city. No better invest
ments than the bonds of Chicago is
sued for SO promising purpose can
be suggested and the loan will
doubtless be wholly made up at
home. The extra session is, after
all, mere formality, although a
most necessary preliminary to the
thorough financing of the exposi-
ton Chicago has it's mind made
up on the value of the security that
is to be offered after fashion that
will speak for itself when the bonds
are put upon the market.

task. The word Notwithstanding"
has an appropriate Specification; it
has no synonym and how it's omis-
sion can be economically supplied
is not settled. So OF many other
long words; their place cannot be
supplied except by multiplying
words. The word telegraph is not
a long one, but it S so frequent use,
is said, demands a shorter and bet
ter one to give the meaning.
Therefore acire is beginning to be
used for telegraph; wire saves only
four letters in writing, and it is
said "has come to stay. That
long monosyllable Through is be-
ing supplanted by thru, being an
economy of four letters in writing a
common word. This subject will
not be pursued further; sufficient
has been said for those who feel
any interest or curiosity. It is not
expected to effect any changes in
book printing: it is simply sug-
gestion to shorten labor in writing.

Curtis on the Bennett Law.

George William Curtis; in the last
number of. Hmper's Weekly devotes
a long editorial to the Bennett law,
and the issue it has raised in this
State. It is not an extraordinary
law, he thinks, and as the Luther
ans are hearty friends of the public
school system, he is greatly sur
prised to note their opposition to it.
Discussing the principles involved
in the law, he says:
If parents prefer a private school
for their children, the public can
claim nothing more than the right
to ascertain whether the education
which it requires, and for which it
makes provision, is adequately sup
piled by the private school. To
that no good citizen ought to object.
But X X this education cannot be
said to be adequately supplied if the
child is not taught to read, write
and speak English Familiarity. This
is primary condition, and the com
prenensive reason, a reason which
is profound and far reaching, is that
English is the language of the coun-
try, the national language. AS no
American child should be permitted
upon reaching his majority, to par
take of political power whose chief
and instructive language is a for
eign tongue, so, as a child, he
should be instructed in the English
language. The State must be able
to require such instruction, and of
course to ascertain whether its re-
quirement is satisfied
Mr.. Curtis should know that the
Lutherans of the State have had no
opportunity to express their senti-
ments yet. A number Of self-ap-
pointed Lutheran leaders, urged on
by the managers of the Democratic
party, have placed themselves in the
ridiculous and contradictory posi-
ton of acknowledging the right of
the State to enact and enforce com
/ pulsorv education measures, while
denying it's right to specify in any
particular of what that education
shall consist. But, it is hardly to
be believed that the intelligent
Lutherans of Wisconsin will sup
port those politicians in maintaining
so unreasonable an attitude.

National Gratitude.

One of the most commendable
virtues of people is national graft
tude The gratitude of this nation
on behalf of those who hazarded life
and health in defence of the nation,
when it was in peril, cannot be too
much commended. It is indeed
surprising anything of the kind in
history: twenty-five years ago the
civil war ended, and at the earliest
practical period the government
FASTENED to make provision for
those who had sustained injury en-
gagged in the war defending the
country. Liberal pensions were
provided for all who were wounded
in the service, or suffered in person
in any way connected with the war
The most remarkable feature of it
all now is that after the lapse of q
quarter of a century the nation
feels it has not done enough for
those who helped to sustain the war
for the nation s freedom. The pen
sion roll has from timb to time been
enlarged, and recognitions for ser
vices rendered, which were at first
thought too small.t TO entitle to gov
eminent bounty, have been since
adjudged worthy to be compensated
from the national treasury Pen
sion bills contemplating a much
wider field for the bounty Of the
general government, have been un-
der consideration during the present
session of Congress, and there is
good prospect that one of these bills
will be enacted before the session
closes. The influence of such leg
islation may prove a powerful in
centive to action at some future pc
Rod of history, should the nation
ever again be involved in war as
calamitous as the last. It will add
an incentive to patriotism, if it is
understood that those who engage
in the perils of war in defence of
the country, will be reasonably re-
warded for personal injuries sus-
tanned or in the event of the loss of
life, their families, if such they
have, will not be uncared for by the
government. It was promised in
the last Republican National plat
form that no man who wore the
blue uniform should be allowed to
become the inmate of an almshouse,
or forced to subsist on charity, ex-
cept where his own vice brought
him to a condition of dependence.
The pension bill now before Con-,
gress grants pension to every
honorably discharged soldier who
from physical disability or mental
Suffering is now unable to earn his
own support through no fault of his
own, shall be entitled to receive a
pension not less than So nor more
than $12 per month. The bill also
provides for dependent parents and
of widows and children. Dependent
widows of soldiers who have died
since the war, are also provided for
in the bill in certain cases. With
whatever faults the government
may be chargeable, national ingrat
itude to the defenders of the cOun-
try's freedom is not one of them.

Federal Election Law.


1t is possible some readers do not
understand what is intended by
federal election laws" if there be
such, it is for their benefit a word
Of explanation is given. Federal
election laws" the same as national
election laws are such as are enact
ed by Congress, and when general,
are applicable to all the States.
The manner of electing members of
Congress is prescribed by Congress,
and cannot be changed by State
laws. The safety of the nation re-
quires that Congress should provide
for the better enforcement of the
federal election laws in States
where they are disregarded in Con
gressional elections. The war of
the rebellion was declared closed
and the rebellion subdued % years
ago. In some of the States the
election of members of Congress are
still il some districts conducted in
violations of law. States are per-
mitted Representatives in Congress
to which they are not entitled.
Driving colored voters from the
polls, illegal voting and false count
ing have all been charged and made
to appear. There are COMPRESSION
al districts in the South where col
ored voters have a decided majority
with large Republican preponder-
ance, but are denied the privilege of
voting. This condition of affairs
has continued more than a quarter
Of century; the attention of Con-
gress has been often called to it
with promises of amendment, but
the day of deliverance from this dis
graceful federation of wrong in a
Republican government is seeming
ly not near at hand There is a
need of a federal election law to SEA
cure the rights Of all legal voters,
colored as well as white. The
States in which these illegal pro-
ceedings are tolerated naturally OBJ
ject to any interference with their
elections by the United States, and
insist that they are capable of right
ing wrongs in their own borders.
The national government does not
attempt to interfere in the election
of State officers, or those whose ur-
isdictiOn is limited to the States in
which they are elected. But for
representatives elected to make
laws for the entire nation, Congress
has a right to require that they
shall be chosen by voters represent
ing legal constituencies. That
many have been declared elected tC
Congress in violation of law, has
not been questioned by fair minded
observers. In districts where shot
guns and other violent agencies
have been employed to keep colored
voters from the polls of election
many man during past years ha;
through unlawful means secured {
seat in Congress. 1t. is said, ne
doubt rightly, there is not gov
eminent in Europe having a repre-
sentative law making body, il
which such wrong is permitted, az
in this much praised country o
equal rights. A bill for nationa
election law is now before Congress
differing from any previously pro
posed measures for securing the
rights of all legal voters, and which
has some prospect of passing.

The movement of the Young people from
the farms to the towns and cities is II mod
ern social symptom which is popularity be-
leved to be peculiar to New England and
the older Eastern states But the new cen
sus is fast demonstrating that the same
drift is already apparent in the region
west of the Allegheny mountains. In In
diana, for instance, Grant county, which
lies midway between Fort Wayne and In
dianapolis has had in ten years a gain of
1887 in population But when the figures
are examined, it appears that 6469 Of this
increase has taken place in the towns,
while many of the rural districts actually
exhibit a decrease "Ah, the iniquitous
protective tariff ~ our free trade friends
will say. ''How it Expresses and impover
ishes the farmers" But this is only anoth
er instance in which the free traders gen
eralize from incomplete data. As matter
of fact, as the census also demonstrates,
the productiveness of the farm lands in
Grant county has doubled in a decade aud
their value has trebled. The editor of the
leading paper in the county says that more
money than ever is being spent in roads
and drains and other public improvements,
and that since 1870 100, 600 acres of land
have been brought under cultivation. This
is the editors explanation of the fact that
the farm holdings tend to become larger
