DF. SEARLE writing of climate and
achievement, in the North american ReUiese
for September, says there are worthier
ways of measuring life than by numbering
its days. That '1ife, in It's fullness and
richness and fruitfulnes, is developed and
enjoyed only where the climate is fekle.
The ambition, energy, inyentiYeness ard
general capacity which have made our
civilization what it is, and which are yet
to make America greater nation than
the world has seen, are, to a large extent,
the result of variable climate" The
objection has been raised to California
that its climate is too mild and even to
promote the production of vigorous race
of men. While there is some strength in
the general proposition, it is also true thai
the nervous vitality characteristic of our
race goes a long way in the direction of
the development, that among other peo-
pies requires climatic rigor and extreme
change for full unfolding. Then, too, there
is great deal in the adaptation of the
life to the climate. If ours is not one that
makes man clench his hands and set his
teeth and brace himself to furious blast, it
has its demands nevertheless, and these
work for him variation and changing
skies. So It is that he can within the
bounds of a single day perspire in the
high temperature Of hot valleys, bundle
against the raw winds of the ocean, inhale
the dry atmosphere of the plains. or drip
with the fogs of the coast; and within the
same scope OF time he can pass from the
rare and cool atmosphere of snowy alti-
tudes to the humidity of the ocean shore.
UnquestionablY were California all valley
and clear skies, all soft and unchanging,
without her varied climates and her moods
in belts scarce a score of miles apart, the
race We woald grow would be enervate and
sadly wanting. in that vigor and virility

Insane Men at Baseball.

A number Of patients from the Friends
Asylum for the Insane were taken last
week to witness baseball game at Frank
ford They enjoyed the antics of the
PLAYERS and imagined that they were visit
ing another institution for incurables.
They expressed sympathy for the halluei-
nations which beset those poor creatures
who jumped, danced, ran forward and
backward and slid on the ground so fran
tically.
Since their visit it is said the patients
have much improved, and it may come to
pass that ball grounds all over the country
will have places on the grand stand set
apart for this class of visitors, and that
those interested IN the care and treatment
of the insane win take their patients to
witness the games as a curative compari-
son.--P Philadelphia Record.

1.-THE FRIEND OF LABOR" AND THE
POOR MAN.


The Ohio Democrats are amusing. Here
we find in their recent State platform an
assertion that "the Democratic party by
Its record has proved itself a steadfast
friend OF the labor and producing class"
Has IL, indeed Let US see. It is an
axiom of political economy and truth of
history that free and involuntary or slave
labor are in all cases and times antago-
nistic, The seryile labor always undercuts
and degrades the free labor to its own
level. Now then, the Democratic party
Tor all the time it had any power to do so,
stood the friend and defender of slave
labor, and thereby put free and producing
labor under cruel and indefensible bond

Again, only lately the labor organiEa-
tions of New York petitioned for the pas
sage Of the reforn ballot law. Every
Democrat in the New York Legislature
voted against it, and when bill did pass

Governor vetoed il, as likewise a second
bill, and he only approved a third when
the air became too close for his breathing,
ssch was the hot Indignation of the people.
Even that bin he approved only because a
damaging rider, the paster system, was
saddled upon it.
When the wage-earners and toilers of
the nation demanded a homestead law, by
which the industrious man could take up
public land and by occupancy and
cultivation acquire title to il, the
Democratic party opposed the petition and
defeated the proposed law. It is the
judgment of the enlightened world that
no measure in respect to the public lands
ever passed Congress that has been SO
fraught with blessings to the poor man.

abolished, and against both the D euocracy
of the nation protested. 1t bef ;au,e law
by virtue of the wisdom of t ie same Con-
eress that cheapened post 4yes which the
Democrats opposed, and in the year of the
victories of Gettysburr., Vicksburg and
Port Hudson. Why sho ,uIa the Democracy
have opposed this p'aor mans land law !?
Because, prior to the law, speculators
boaght up immense tracts of public lands
and forced intending settlers to submit to
extortlon, and these speculators had Demo-
cratic favor, because the slaveocracy, which
was, as Patterson well puts it, 'lthe landed
aristocracy," was the enemy of small
farms-large estates gave birth to
slaves, small farms bred freemen. 1t made
no difference that these small holdings
might lie beyond the latitude congenial TO
slavery.
The Democratic party is 'on record" "
therefore, as opposing cheap postage and
homesteads, and the journals of Congress
witness the truth of the charge. The
principle of free homes was before Con-
gress for years. and always found the
Democratic members voting against it.
The most prominent instance was in 1859,
when all the negative votes were Demo-
cratic. Congressional Globe, p. 492, ct seq.
for 1850 In 1S60-61 the bill again came
up, and passed both houses, nearly all the
Democrats voting no, and all Republicans
voting aye. But on the last day OF. his
term James Buchanan, a Democratic
President, vetoed the bill. In 1862, the
very next year, Congress again passed the
bill, and Abraham Lincoln, Republican
President, approved it.
Since that law went into effect 10000, 900
acres of land have been settled upon under
it; an area about equal to the area of New
England, New York and Pennsylvania.
Towns and villages by the hundreds have
grown Up in the midst of these lands,
States have sprung up from their acres,
and an empire of wealth and strength has
been the heritage of the nation from that
poor mans and producers act which the
Democratic party uniformly and persist
emily opposed and voted against.
If it is needed that other evidences of
the untruth of the Ohio Democratic plat
form declaration shall be cited, the history
of Congressional legislation is full of
them But for the present it must suffice
to show that cheap postage and home
steads, two boons to the poor man, were
opposed by the Democratic party before
the war, that it upheld slave as against
free labor, and that as late as to-day, in
the chief State of the Union, ithas battled
against a system that secures to every man,
rich or poor, the lnviolability of his ballot
and its perfect secrecy

WHEN Mr.. Blanchard, of Ell Dorado,
