found adherents and devotees. They |
have been extolled in many cases to
the dignity Of creeds.
In religious thought the same criti-
cism obtains. Legitimate investiga-
ton and inquiry has been throttled on
every opportunity. The dogmas OF
creeds have been defended by all the
power the various organizations could
bring to bear. Trials for heresy have
resulted in diverting the attention OF
the country from religious ideas and
given us both heretics and heresy hunt
ers. The evils of this ale twofold.
In the first place notoriety seekers
have seized the opportunity of gaining
public attention, and have made lnde-
pendent religious thought ridiculous
by their crankisms, while truly deyout
men have been deferred by what they
supposed was strong public sentiment
from striking out boldly. On the
other hand an inquisition has been es-
tablished that endangers the entire
church. Bigots have found favorable
opportunity for displaying unwonted
zeal and mock fidelity. There are
several equally potent reasons, not
within the range of newspaper
article, against calling the last decade
of the nineteenth century the "agt

where the population Is large
ly composed of friends and
kinfolks and acquain-
tances. We don't like to see our peo-
pie carted off in great numbers just
because there are too many people
this year" We can't even afford the
rayages of epidemics for the purpose
of learning a lesson or for matters of
experiment, and cannot agree with
one who says it is a question whether
migratory plaques, such as cholera
and yellow fever, are not on the whole,
life-savlng because they brighten com
munities into cleaning up, and VINO,
continuing, says: THE last visit OF
yellow fever to Memphis scared the
authorities into the adoption or sys-
tematic sanitary measures, which re-
duced the death rate of that city over
20 per cent, and doubtless resulted IN
the saving of more lives than 1T de-
stroyed."
In a city the size of Fairhaven the
cleaning up process could be worked as
easily as a good housewife can clear
her home and keep it so.

THE WORLDS FAIR

There can be no doubt Of the in
creasing interest in matters concern
ing the Worlds Fair. Not only are
the people of this country now giving
il serious consideration, but the wires
beneath the sea have been bringing
the words of great men in other
nations who are thinking and talking
OF the exposition. All their expressions
are kindly and enthusiastic. Theonly
country that appears to be lacking IN
interest is Portugal. lnasmuch as the
exposition will not open until May, 1893,
nearly two years from now, the foreign
interest manifested is more than graft
fying-it is remarkable. 1t shows con-
clusively that Europe will send us the
best of everything she has, and that
the exposition will be all that its name
implies.
No other nation in the world is stu
ated so favOrably as we are for tho
PURPOSES of a worlds fair. We are OF
terms OF the most perfect amity will
every country in the world which ha'
government, and there is M
prospect Of such amicable re
lations being interrupted o
interfered with. We are universally
respected and admired, our institu
tions are commended even by nation
which would not adopt them, ano
most of all, our weight and strengt
as nation are fully appreciated.
At the same time we must not fOl
get that the exhibits Of foreign nation
will be made, as a rule, on a strict
business basis. What every countr
in the world has in mind is the enorn
Gus purchasing power of the Unite
States, surprising that of any othe
nation. Our visitors will all hay
something to sell, and they have NJ
the slightest prejudice against Amer
can money. The world knows, eve
il our American traders forget or II
more it, the United States is the grea
est market in the world. We have e,
tended to all nations an invitation
bring us samples of their wares
every kind, and they will not declir
the invitation. Those who visit Il
great fair and go about with the
eyes wide open will see more than The
ever dreamed of, the like of whiC

CLEAN UP

Some pessimist or sombre poet has
written that death turks in every
flower. OF course this isn't true, as TO
all flowers, but one thing is certain the
grim and grinnng old destroyer is ly-
ing and Gathering around in some of
the alleys and by-ways Of Fairhaven,
and that, too, in the condition that
Sidney Smiths friend wished to be
when he yearned to take of his flesh
and let the wind whistle through his
ribs.
This may appear to be a somewhat
fippant and facetious way OF begin
ming a talk about a serious subject, for
the condition Of some OF the by-places,
back yards and alleys of Fairhaven
are very serious matter to the peo-
pie here. They are filthy beyond ex-
preston and they are breeding disease
and death as elTectually as If ingenuity
was being exercised to produce such
results.
In numerous places the dread green
flag that tells of diptheria and the
quarantine of the houses upon which
those waving emblems hang, is notice

hang in close proximity to some local

community.
In immense cities, such as New
York, London, Paris and the like
writers may philosophize upon the
matter of epidemics, and draw from
their philosophy consultations concern

that such cities need a cleaning out OF
surplus humanity.

WOMEN AND BASEBALL

We are always glad to chronicle a
new idea, especially when it is pos
sessed of such great merit as that
which is now presented to us in the
August number of Demorest's Family
Magazine, which has just arrived.
One of the leading articles is a game
of baseball all played out on paper by
means of finely executed illustrations
with explicit descriptions of each
move. Those who have attempted to
explain the game of baseball to sis
ter, wife, or wife-to-be, know what an
almost hopeless task it was. Now
here is the whole thing done for you,
and so cleverly and clearly that after
reading it woman will be as anxious
as any one OF the other sex to see a
match, and she will never again say
"Well. what is there in baseball, any
how" The article will save you hours
of explanation, and shows the enter
prise of this progressive magazine
which strives to give the public just
what they want. This August mum
Der is certainly very attractive, anC
contains over POO fine Illustrations, in
