PUBLIC OPINION.
CoNDEMNING IMMIGRATION.

CONDEMNlNG lMMlGhAIlON.
Cleveland Leader.
No member of the old Know Nothing
party ever went further in denouncing
the influence of foreigners in this country
than Father Smith, editor of the Catholic
ReoieoO, has recently gone in his denun-
citation of scheme which he says is
being worked against his church in this
country. The old Known Nothings of
thirty and thirty-five years ago used to
say that foreign potentates, the sup
pOrters of despoisms, were stimulating
immigration, sending over the scum and
dregs of Europe, with view of giving
us a population which would be so
turbulent and unruly that they would
finally destroy our liberties. Father
Smith now says that some power is
flooding this country "with people from
Quebec, Germany, Poland, Hungary,
and Syria, with their languages, tradi-
tions, and hierarchies," and that they
are not losing single point in the con-
spiracy to obtain foreign bishops, unable
to speak our language, strong upholders
of monarchical institutions, utterly ig
norant of American opinion, and whose
chief Office will be to flood the country
with priests from Quebec, Germany,
Poland, and elsewhere as Indifferent to
America as themselves" He is in favor
of more thorough restriction of immi-
grafton. He is right. His whole church
ought to join with him and help the
party to strengthen and
perfect its work-commenced by the
passage of an anti-immigration bill in
the last Congress.

BARRELS BY POST.
plan.

THE POSTAL SERVICE IN SWITZERLAND
Joseph and E. R. Pemnen, in June Century.
We had sent our baggage, as we
had been advised, to the post-ofiee,
where we at once went. The bag which
we wished to post to Zermatt seemed to
us very heavy, but scythes and barrels
and bundles of old iron, labeled and ad
dressed, were lying on the floor, and we
supposed it must be all right, though
the postmistress, as soon as we had paid
our money, turned away without giving
us stamps or receipt, and had nothing
more to do with us. We need not have
worried, for the Swiss post-otfice takes
anything and everything that the ex-
press companies at home would carry;
and if one does not bother about his
baggage, it is as certain to turn up at
his journeys end as it would be to dis
appear in England, if one ventnred to
let it take care of itself.

THE BEDLAM CANDIDATE.

ST. Paul Pioneer Press.
Ignatius Donnelly may be fairly rec
Ognized as the leading spirit of that
convention of cranks and adventures,
of political charlatans and their ignorant
dupes, which has just adjourned at
Cincinnati. He was the Chairman of
the Committee on Resolutions, and his
success in bringing the committee and
convention to a substantially unanimous
acceptance of his program for the or
ganization of a third party, which is to
nominate candidates for President and
Vice President in 1892, is in the nature
of a personal triumph. The motive for
his zeal in promoting this third party
scheme is his known desire to be, and
his confident expectation that he will
be, its candidate for President himself.
And it is quite probable that he may be.
For nobody is likely to dispute his title
to be nominated on the most insane
and ridiculous platform which was ever
presented by any political body to the
American people. He is easily the
most INSCRIPTIONS of the demagogues,
and the most rattle Drained of the fools
who formulated and adopted that
amazing exhibition of idiocy on a
bender. No one is likely to contest
with him the dubious honors of this
double primacy, or to stand in the way
of his natural ambition to make himself
the laughing stock of the world as the
candidate for President of Bedlam let
loose

A VERDICT AGAINST ITSELF.

Pittsburgh Dispatch.
The termination of trial in Chicago,
which is one of the echoes of the famous
Cronin case, calls attention to the idio-
syncrasies of the jury system. A news
paper there commented sharply on the
action of member of the jury named
Culver in securing that famous verdict,
which, by the very circumstances of the
case, was impossible, if verdicts aim at
the truth. Mr.. Culver sued the paper
for libel. The verdict was given in
favor of the newspaper, thus leaving the
position of the juror worse than before.
This case, in connection with New
Orleans infamy, presents for public con-
sideration the very significant picture of
the jury system impeaching itself. At
New Orleans it was the grand jury
which formally declared that the trial
Jury in murder case rendered a false
verdict and betrayed justice. AT Chi
cago one trial jury impeachss another.
In the latter instance the authority of
one might be held to offset the other.
But the important point is that here are
two noted cases in which, by formal and
legal findings in subsequent cases, the
iury system places itself on record as
having defeated justice.
Such a finding should demonstrate to
every one the necessity of some reform
in the jury system. AS at present con-
stituted it contains but slight assurance
of Justice, and when that is the case it
is worse than useless. Whether it is
necessary to abolish it altogether, or
whether some reforms can be instituted
to insure the character and independence
of juries, may be an open question. But
when the jury system convicts itself
there is no room for disputing that
something should be done.

HOW THE PRINCE OF WALES
FELL IN LOVE.

FELL IN LOVE.
Lucy C. Lille, in June Lippincotts.
Two stories are related, on creditable
authority, of the manner in which the heir
apparent to the throne of England first
heard of the charms of the Prince of
Denmark's daughter; and both of them
form pretty incidents in the prologue of
what is regarded as the most charming
royal romance in modern times. H. r.
II. Albert Edward chanced, so it is said,
to be Willing away part of long sum-
mer afternoon with two or three congo
nial spirits, young men of rank and po-
sition near enough to his own to make
even discussions on domestic questions
possible, and the matrimonial outlook
for one of the party was brought up.
Colonel - drew from his pocket the
photograph, as he supposed, of his
fa'lee, to show it proudly to his COM
panions. But instead of Lady IS
likeness there appeared rather poorly
taken carte de oiSite of the most charm
ing girl the princes eyes had ever rest
ed upon-a girl wearing simple little
white gown and loose white jacket, with
a black velvet ribbon circling her throat,
and her hair smoothed back from her
brow, leaving the beautiful young face
to be admired for itself alone. The
eyes and lips seemed to be smiling at
the prince, who gazed at the picture,
demanding to know who in the world
this lovely "country girl' might be.
"The daughter of the Prince of Den
mark" was the answer, and, naturally
enough, the carte de 0tSite changed own
ers H. r. H. showed it that evening
to confidential friend-one who knew
of the matrimonial designs of the queen
for the Prince of Wales, a bride from
one of the well known German houses
having been selected. The quaint little
photograph had not left the princes
keeping when few days later he again,
and quite by chance, encountered at the
house of certain duchess the same no.
BILE young face, this time exquisitely
painted in miniature, the property of a
lady who had just returned from Den
mark

THE DOTLET ON THE 1.

MAIL 6dLelte.
Do you put the dot above the letter i
Do you put it close to the letter? Dc
you send it flying before? Is it fat.
round, irregular? In each case your
popularity is the outward and visible
sign of some idiosyncracy. "Look at
the dots of your i; try to make them
different-smaller, larger, rounder, more
oblong-you cannot do it. The dot
above your only changes with your
character.
"If you often forget to dot your i, you
will also forget other things which seem
unimportant to you, but which for the
comfort of everyday life are as necessa-
ry as the dot is to the i. If you have
often to look in vain for the dot, you
will also look often in vain for other
things, because you have not put them
in their proper place.
''If the dot flies high above and far
away from the letter to which it belongs.
your hopes, thoughts, wishes, and aspi-
rations are apt to fly about in far-off re-
gions, and instead of making practical
use of the present day you dream of the
ideals of the future. If this "high-fown"
dot is of an oblong shape, and if, in con-
junction with it, the loops of your |, h, G,
f, etc., are loose and long, then good
bye, symmetry and calm, for you have
very little self-control.
"If your husbands dots are heavy,

per, an esthetic tea, or a meal of beef

dot, on the other hand, if it goes togeth-
er with handwriting that consists of
thin strokes only, denotes mind above
'these things"

easily satisfied with his meals He will
hardly know what he is eating You

PLUM CURCULIO.
Ohio Experiment Station.

Ohio Experiment Station.
Some spraying experiments were
made by leading fruit grower of OF
tawa county, Ohio. Having two pear
orchards several rods apart, the fruit of
which has for some years been greatly
injured by the plum curculio, he d eter-
mined spraying one of them. The larg-
er orchard, containing several hundred
trees, was accordingly sprayed twice
with London purple-four ounces to fif-
ty gallons of water. The fruit on this
orchard was very much less injured by the
curculio and other insects than that on
the other orchard, which had not been
sprayed. Mr.. Miller also found the
spraying machine a decided help in
lighting the curculio in his plum orch
ard, although he did not rely upon it al
together, but used the jarring method
part of the time.
THE ARsENITEs AND LIME.
In 1888 we sprayed number of pear
trees with London purple in the proper
tion of eight ounces to fifty gallons of
water. At the same time other trees
were sprayed with the same mixture ex-
cept that half peck of fresh slaked
lime was added. 1t was then found
that while the trees sparyed with Lon
don purple alone had their foliage de-
cidedly Injured by the application, those
sprayed with the lime and London pur-
pie were not affected: In 1890 these
were repeated in such man.
ner as not only to show the effect of
adding lime, but also to determine
whether Paris green or London pur-
pie is the more liable to cause injury to
the foliage. The results of these expe-
riments fully confirm those of 1888 and
1889 in showing the advantage of add
ing lime, and they further show that
Paris green is much less liable to injure
foliage than London purple.

YOU ARE AS SAFE
ON AN OCEAN STEAMSHIP AS ON THE
STREET.

ON AN OCEAN STEAMSHIP AS ON THE
STREET.
VIM H. Rideing, in June Scribner.
Notwithstanding all the peril from
fog and ice, and from the fury of
cyclones and hurricanes, the steamers
of the transatlantic lines are so staunch-
ly built and so eapably handled, that
man is less likely to meet with acci-
dents on board of one of them than he
would be in walking the streets of
crowded city. Never before have so
many passengers been carried as are
carried now. The ships that were re-
garded as leviathans fifteen or sixteen
years ago are as yachts compared with
more recent additions to the various
fleets. Scarcely more than ten years
have elapsed since sixteen knots was
the maximum speed; now it is twenty
knots, with the certainty of an almost
immediate increase to twenty-one or
twenty-five knots. The tonnage has
been increased within the same period
from a maximum of five thousand to
ten thousand five hundred, while ten
years ago two hundred cabin passengers
were as many as any steamer could ac-
commodate with a reasonable degree OF
comfort on one voyage, it is not uncom-
mon now TO find over five hundred as
the complement of one steamer. When
steamers of sixteen and seventeen knots
were built, it was said that they were
too large and too fast, and that they
would surely come to grief, but expert
ence has proved them to be as safe
as any. In fact, those who are best
qualified to know, declare that the aug
mentation of speed promotes safety.

WHAT FREE SILVER MEANS.

Andrew Carnegie, in North American Review.
1t means that our government is to be
compelled by law to open its mints, and
take all the silver with which European
governments are loaded down, and part
of all the silver mined in the world, and
give for every 7S cents worth of it one
of these coins which you are compelled
to take as full dollar for your labor of
products. 1t means that the European
mes chant will send silver over here, get
it coined at our mints or get silver
dollar note for it, and then buy full
dollars worth of your wheat or corn, or
anything he wants, for the silver he
could get only 7S cents for in Europe OF
anywhere else in the world. Europe is
doing g this every day just now with
India, the Argentine Republic, and
other countries upon asilver basis. The
British merchant buys wheat in India
upon the deprecated silver basis, takes
it To Europe, and sells it upon the gold
basis. He has thus to pay so little for In
dian wheat that ithas become dangerous
competitor to our own in Europe, which
it could not be except that by the fall in
silver the Indian farmer gets so little
value for his products.

"BILL" ELLIOTT, the shameless scan
dal-monger, who completed his infamous
course at Columbus by numbering the
man who gave him taste of his own
filth, complains that the cell in which he
is confined is not nice and comfortable.
This is truly sad. Elliott ought, perhaps,
to be given quarters as palatial as he is
foul himself, but the world is full of
cruelties and we fear that the aesthetic
sufferings of assassins will continue to

IT is very significant that the free
coinage resolution adopted by the recent
Business Congress at Denver only pass
ed by vote of So to 55. 1t shows that
Republicans and large proportion of
the sensible business element of the
West are gradually coming to their
right minds on the silver question and
would seem to indicate that the free
silver heresy is weaker now than six
months ago.

THE origin of the phrase "a public
office is public trust" is commonly at
tributed to Mr.. Cleveland, who used it
in some document now out of mind,
presumably his letter accepting a second
nomination, against which he declared
in his letter accepting the first. But it
seems that the phrase was used by
Judge Cooley, of Michigan, in a work
on American constitutional law, written
more than eleven years ago.

seals in Behring Sea for period will
come at nick of time. The sealing

from determination for time at least.
