London Society.


Wrecked now are the aspirations of the
New York anglomaniacs. News from
abroad tells how much better they order
their things in the ripper society of Eng
land, How, for instance, could New
York hope to equal this feature of ball
at Covent Garden
"An incident of the occasion was the
dance by one of the girls of the Gaiety
Theatre in costume, who was lifted into
lower-tier box by two youths in red hunt
ing outfits, and, deprived of her slippers,
she continued to dance in her stockings,
and was again lifted into the box and
bereft of these. The two youths now
pinned the stockings to the front of the
box and Lionel Vrough, who was dis
g,lsed as a policeman, arrested one
masher after another and brought them
up to contribute, until the weight of SOY.
ereigns in the stockings almost brought
them to the floor"
In view of the comparative modesty and
decency of masked balls in this benighted
country, we can no longer wonder at the
lofty scorn with which Rudyard Kipling
regards this nation of Philistines.

THE FARMERS' ALLIANCE.

What is the OBJECT and aims of the
farmers Alliance? has frequently been
asked, and an exchange gives the fol-
lowing:
The Alliance is seeking to make the
rich man pay his just proportion Of the
taxes.
1t seeks to pay up the bonds that
have almost ruined the people and the
nation.
1t is seeking forthwith to reduce the
salaries of officials to an equality with
other salaries and prices.
1t is seeking to make it possible for
the poor man to get money as cheaply
~ the banker can get it.
1t is seeking to have the government
issue all money in sufficient quantity to
do the business of the country.
1t is seeking to break the speculat-
or's corner on grain and pork.
It is seeking to watch the congress
from the peoples side for the next
twenty-five years.
1t seeks to make profit in farming
and industry, and not in money lending.
It attacks the giant monopoly and in
tends to follow him to his overthrow.
The Alliance demands great things
that monopoly always said
we're impossible, and is buckling on its
armor none too soon to save the over
throw Of great republic. ln the name
Of Israel's God it IS marching on, de
justice where justice has been
unknown.
The farmer and laborer who takes
tnis stranger in. will find the best friend
they have known in twenty-five years.

GOV VERNMENT RAILWAYS,

81 vas very much impressed during
my stay in Germany this summer by
the superior service Of the state-c con
trolled railways of that country as com
pared with the careless management OF
ON own lines. There was scarcely an
accident in Prussia during the whole
Summer, while in this country nearly
i've times as many passengers are ill.,
jurcd or killed outright. The Ameri.
can railways have not enough employ
ees to insure safety and attention.
En.,land has forr times as many men,
and Germany even more.
..t'We are fully thirty years behind
s6ermany in safety for passengers.
