Parnell's Allies.

Where shall Mr.. Parnell look for allies? OBJ
viously. only in the Tory camp. At Hastings
Mr.. Gladstone charged him with having
sought them there already. He was struck,
with one omission in the inventory Of Mr..
Parnells resources. Mr. Parnell forgot. he
pointed out, to inform Irish-Americans that
he now has the support Of the Tory press and
most of the Tory leaders in Great Britain. So
that II comes to this, apparently, that Irish
Americans must choose between the Tories
who broke faith shamefnlly with the Parnell-
ties in 1855. and the Liberals who manfully
went out OF Office in 1856 sooner than renonuce
their programme Of home rule for Ireland.

The Race Problem.

The adjustment OF the relations of the

cation has been upheld as the preliminary
panacea. while assimilation has been discussed
As the ultimate means From England. where
an African is a comparative rarity, there
comes m abundance Of advice upon the sub
iect but all these suggestions take no heed OF
the practical difficulties that stand IN the way.

ligence Freedom of action has done some
thing toward bringing the races 10 political
level. But the social separation Is. II any
thing. more strongly defined than ever.
The white men Of the South assert that the
white woman is the highest embodiment OF
our modern civilization. They assert that
this product is the result of centuries OF effort
and that the race problem in the South can
not be solved until the colOred people shall
have gone through a similar refining process,
and brought forth equally satisfactory results.
IL may possibly be doubted whether there
is not an initial difference between eau a.

difference may be when education and clvlli-
Zation shall have done their utmost for both.

A PAMPHLET has been issued by the Mas

which throws an unfavorable light on the
condition Of the farming interests Of that

information is obtained that there are !. 46l
abandoned farms in Massachusetts, assessed
for taxation at an aggregate valuation Of

earning livelihood. Only two counties in
Massachusetts report no abandoned lands. In
some of the counties the land is held at high
valuation. ranging from f25 TO $50, but this
land is generally found in the vicinity Of towns
which furnish an accessible market. and add
in other ways TO the value Of the sold.

Tar statement that the new Senator from CAL
ifornia the successor Of Mr.. Hearst. was elected
at a cost Of two thousand dollars a legislative
head, is one not likely TO give the people of
the United States in general very favorable
opinion Of the condition OF political af-
airs in the Gold State How striking
the contrast between such an election,
won by the most disgraceful and
scandalous means, and the election of the
sturdy new Senator from Illinois. The latter
representative belonged TO the people, and
through their Democratic delegates in the
Illinois Legislature, they stubbornly insisted
that be should be elected because he was a
true exponent Of those reforming influences
TO which American citizens, WHO have the
good of their country at heart, must look for
the destruction Of the infamous methods
which were employed openly and unblush-
ingly in California in the election Of FELTON,.

spect of all who are Interested in the perma-

"About thirteen dozen"
"How many Of you share in thatH"
"There are six of U.s."
Six able bodied adults were wearing
away their lives for less than 81 day.
Thinking there must be some mistake

"Never any moreT
Sometimes 81, but very, very seldom
not often"
A wHITED sEPULCHER.
ATS Wilson street stands q large
brick house of apparently recent con-
struction. 1t Is like whited sepulcher,
however. A narrow stairway led under
ground to basement So dark was the
passage to the work room that matches
were required. So damp were the walls
that 1t was with difficulty the matches
could be lit. The light revealed small
store room, through which 1t was neces-
ssry to pass to reach the work room. A
lamp was used to show the visitors where
they were. CHASTITY looking faces cleaned
like death's-heads through the darkness,
but they were only the tired men and
girl operators who snatched moments
rest to'lOok at the visitors. One pale,
sickly looking little girl said her name
was Eva Friedman and her age was IL
years. She had been earning 81 a week
for long time, but she did not know
how long.
Another little girl, Lena Lieber, who
has not yet learned to speak English, was
happy In the knowledge that she had
earned 40 cents in the last three days.
She said she was IS years old, but did not
look to be 8.
They worked-seven of them-from 7
in the morning until o'clock In the
evening each day in the week, with a
half day off Saturday. One or two elder
girls said they made from 50 to So per
week. The business Is owned and run
by A. Hosherman.
WORKING FOR ARIsTOCRATs.
M. Rosenschweig is a contractor at
559, where the operators are crowded so
closely together that they prevent the
doors from shutting. For this reason
the operatives have the benefit of little
fresh air. There are twenty-three of
them in the one small room. The
sweater" with his wife and five small
children occupies one or two rooms In
the rear. These operators supply the
fashionable designs in cloaks to be fur
nlshed to John V. Farwell & Co. to this
seasons trade. They grind out the usual
