Hugh Pcnticost, editor Of the
71renticM Century, who has been
champloning the cause Of the
laboring men of the country, has
announced his determination to leave
journalism and practice law. Upon
discarding the editorial pen, he says:
.'One of the lessons l have learned is
that the working people, as a class, are
in the unfortunate position they are in
because, as a class they are incapable
of being better off; they are welded to
the clergymen and the politicians.
They will follow a black gown and a
brass band into slavery, and they en-
joy their servitude. They like to be
humbugged, robbed and ruled; and
they love the men who humbug, rob
and rule them. This is said not of all
working people, for there are a grow
ing number of whom it is not true nor
to blame those Of whom it is true, but
to describe them. | did not know this
once. l know itnow. When | did moi
know it | was willing to suffer, if neei
be, for the working people. Now thai
| know it | am not.

School Funds to Loan 4.

Late advices indicate that a state
ment that about 100000 of school
funds was on deposit waiting borrowers
with real estate securities, was some-
what misleading. The state board
having charge of the investing of
school funds for the state, after care
fully considering tho matters arrived
at the conclusion that loans to farmers
involved too much risk, and that a bet
ter investment is municipal and school
bonds. The money is loaned through
county to the city or school district and
the county is responsible to the state.
The rate to be guaranteed to the state
is SIX per cent. but the county may
charge an additional per cent to cover
expense of handling. Each county is
given an amount prorated upon the
number of school children of school
age. Fall River county has 763 chill
dren and gets $396.76.

War Next Spring.

A letter has been received in this
country within the last few days from
an officer on the general staff Of the
German emperor which declares in
effect that war IN Europe cannot be
postponed beyond next spring. The
Importance of this letter is all the
greater in view Of the fact that it has
been received by an official high in the
United States government. The COM
munication is understood to have been
dictated by the emperor himself. It
declares that there is no doubt about
the massipg of the troopsof the car on
the frontiers OF Austria, Germany and
Roumania. Since August /, 500, 900
Russian troops, mostly light troops and
Cossack cavalry, have been thrown into
southwestern Russia, the entire force,
previous to August l., having been
posted in eastern Russia. Over 100000
men are in position between Odessa
and the pruth and Warsaw.
1t is said that for some time the Ger
man war Office has been in communi-
cation with American firms and has
made arrangements for supplying the
needs Of tho German army in time of
war. 1t is said that nearly 100000
stand of arms, with bayonets attached,
are in readiness to be disposed of as
soon as trouble occurs.

People who come to this country
must learn that the government is to
be respected, and its laws obeyed. The
sooner that idea takes hold Of men
prossessed of a~narchistic% principles the
better it will be for all. The prompt
punishment of the participants IN the
Hay market murder acted as a salu-
tary check. The prompt and vigorous
measures adopted and executed by
Mayor Washburne in Chicago recently,
if followed, will prevent another Hay
Market affair. Too heavy a penalty
cannot be imposed upon this class of
offenders.

MARRIAGE IN AssyRlA.

Men live on six cents a day in Assyria.
Assyrian ONE are bought and sold,
are made to work with oxen ut the pillow,
and have as little liberty as in the days
Of Cadlaus. Men who pay six dollars a
day to live and ladies who ride to shops
in victorias thought over these things as
they left the Lincoln Park church Sum
day night. Amen Rasi, born on Mount
Lebanon. told these things in broken
English.
Amen Rasi is u tall, handsome Assy-
rim, with Il skin as rich us the cinna-
mon silks made at the foot of the noun
tain on which he was born. He looked
into the curious, bright eyes of girls
and told them that, had they been born
Assyrians in Assyria they could not go
upon the Streets unless their faces were
concealed: that they could neither re-
ceive nor make u call among women
without their husbands consent, and
that if at any time, even by accident.
they We're seen by any man or in any
way recognized no one would marry
them.
He said that nee two coupies-a tall
man and u short woman, and a short
man and a tall woman-stood before a
priest to be wed. The priest placed the
tall man and tall woman and the short
man and short wo,nan together, and
none of the four knew whether it was
right or not, neither Of them knowing
the other. Eut the parents hastily OBJ
jected. and placed the tall man by the
short woman and the short man by the
tall woman, us that was the way of the
contracts.
Then Mr.. Rasi showed how these con-
tracts were made. He left the pulpit,
and presently Il man wrapped up in rich
Assyrian 1aiment Went up and sat upon
the floor. Mr.. Rasi came back and
squatted beside him.

"IIow many have you?"
"Three."
"l1ow much years have they?"
"One is fifteen, nj twenty and one

But W then Isaac did not get the
little one, because a few minutes late,
Mr. Rasi returned as another man, and
by doubling the price secured the girl
for his son Jacob.
Then Amen Rasi looked at the youna
men, whose patent feathers cost them
geven dollars. and told them that people
in Assyria paid fifty cents for a suit Of
clothes. The common people, he said,
paid three cents for twenty-five pounds
of cabbage and four cents for five pounds
of turnips. Fifty loaves Of bread were
turned out at a baking, and men some.

The Tariff and Wages.

The Minneapolis Times, a democratic'
sheet, animadverts upon the election of
Mckinley in Ohio, and remarks that
while many are sending their congrat-
ulatlons to the champion of American
protection, there are others hat do not
feel disposed to do so, and enumerates
among these, workmen in various in
dustrial institutions of the country,
whose wages have sometime been re-
duced. The cause of this reduction is
laid at the threshold Of the republican
policy of protection. The Minneapolis
Times, or any other Democratic organ,
will confer a kindness If it will explain
the manner in which a protective poll
cy lowers wages. We are weary of
seeing the assertion and shall be pleased
to see some evidences of the truthful
ness thereof.
To an ordinary man vt seems clear
that the more a manufacturer gets for
his goods, the more he can afford to
pay his employees. The democrats
claim that the republican policy Of pro.
lection puts a higher price on the pro-
tected article. 1t Is absolutely certain
that a manufacturer will not pay more
for labor than the labor is worth to
him. If he gets a. good price for his
goods, lie can afford to pay a better
price for his labor. If he gets a poor
price for his goods, he can only afford
a poorer price for the labor he employs
If the employer does not pay a better
price for labor under protection, it is
the fault Of the employer himself, and
not of the policy. When receipts from
any enterprise are diminished, the first
item Of retrenchment is on employees
wages. In no other direction is re.
trenchment so easy. To illustrate
Suppose A to he q manufactures of an
article that he sells at 81, into the

Shortage of cars to market the enor-
nous grain crop in eastern Dakota
prevails to such an extent that it
amounts to almost a famine. 1t is
estimated that not less than $500 cars
are needed to relieve the present strain.
The Railway Commissioners have been
appealed to for help and r doing all
possible. In many places every avail
able vacant building has been filled
with grain and yet dealers have been
obliged to nail up placards announcing
mo Moro Grain will be Bought until
Cars + Secured In August last
after the the crop was assured the rail-
way companies at the instance of the
railroad commissioners had made, as
they supposed, ample provision for
handling the crop. 1t nov turns out
that neither the commission nor the
railway companies had any conception
OF the enormity of the yield. Good
judges say that only about Is per cent
Of the crop is already marketed.

Concerning the presentation by the
United States to the state of South
Dakota of the Fort Sisseton military
post for militia encampments Auditor
Taylor says: "Tlere are few people
who know the value of this donation
to the state. The buildings alone cost
the United States over $4,000. They
are all built of stone and brick and put
up in the most substantial manner.
The barracks are all built of stone and
are sufficient to accommodate 1000
men. Besides the many fine buildings
the grounds are beautiful, and adjoin-
ing the grounds are pretty lakes and
an abundance Of timber. 1t will make
a grand place for holding encampments.
No state in the union can boast of such
headquarters for their state militia,
and | am proud to think that we can
boast Of such headquarters"

He Make a Sunday Visitation to the
saloons of Paterson.
Special to the JERSEY city Neacs.
PATERSON. Dec. 20. 1S91.-Dean McNul-
ty raided the saloons yesterday, and his
crusade put II number of prominent citi-
zens, including city and county officials,
as we'll as the proprietors Ut the saloons
visited. In a very unpleasant frame of
mind.
The Deans our of inspection covered
most of the saloons in the central part of
the city. At the half past nine a. m. SER
vice in st. Johns Romnn Catholic Church
he preached IN the evils resulting from
intoxication, and Immediately afterward
started of to visit n sick parishioner.
In the streets he saw evidences Of
drunkenness, which suggested to him the
necessity OF an investigation. The first
place visited was Henry Luhr's saloon Oh
Slater street. Here he found a promi-
nent church member imbibihg milk
punches. The Dean WAS shocked and
the church member was annoyed. He
visited several other saloons on the way
and found many drinking at the different
bars.
The indications are that complaints will
be made against those violating the law.
1t is q long time since the Dean invaded
the saloons in the centre of the city, and
his appearance, therefore, caused a sensa-
zion.

DIR. scudder on Matrimony.

Pastor Scudder gave his consrcga-

rules for the choice of husbands, all
of which we think might be resolved
into one:-Marry to please yourself,
and don't worry about what other
people think.
DIR, Scudder has a fine romantic
strain in his nature evidently, and he
urges the young women of his flock to
marry tor love first. last and all the
time. In this advice he takes the
directly opposite position to Mrs.
Malaprop who considered that "a
little wholesome aversion" at the be-
ginning was the surest guarantee OF
married happiness.
Perhaps the happy mean may in
this as in other Things be the safest
path. II DIR. Scudder advises the
young women who sit under him to
temper their affections with
sense and to warm their judgments
with a little natural impulse, he will
be as near right as a man can be in a
matter which is beyond all rule.
