Across the bar and through the Golden Gate,

And rough Cape Horne the tols-the dam
And smiling Hope extends her lovely hand

phrase of the hypocrites is that the
negro should be educated to work. This,
too, is kindness to the negro. What
right have we to force this kindness on
them? The negroes have no reason to
work more than they do now, as long as
they are left TO themselves. They live,
generally, in the midst of prodigal ma
ture, which provides for all their real
wants. They build their light huts, culti-
vate with little trouble the prolific fields,
clothes they do not require, and they
possess in abundance supplies for their
bodily needs. Indeed, they have enough
leisure to enjoy existence, as is only
granted in Europe to few favorites of
fortune. And in this contentmenU are
we violently to disturb them? They
should learn the treadmill of constant
labor; but why? Because it is to their
profit2 No; because we are to derive
benefit from it.
They do not work because they have no
wants, so we accustom them artificially
to absolutely ecessary-indeed, inju-
rious-appetites, and in order to crafty
them they are to learn to work. Under
the pretext of educating them, we make

THE DUTcHMAN AHEAD.
His Farm Was Small, but He Got Thel
Just the Same.

Just the Same.
The old saying that the German farmer
piles up greenbacks whore the American
sets out for the poor-house is strikingly
illustrated in Kankakee County. Fritz
Loeb, an awkward youth, trudged into
the county asking the price of twenty
acres of land. Young Ed Bunch, having
inherited a l00-acre farm, laughed at the
little German.
''Twenty-acre farm! That wouldn't
support hen and her chickens"
From Mr.. Bunch he bought twenty
acres and small dwelling. Then he
rolled up his sleeves. Driving daily to
town behind a span of bays. Mr.. Bunch
thistles. hoeing corn. Which the better
farmer? The Germans land yielded
more an acre, his cows gave more milk,
his hens laid more eggs. More money
was made from the twenty acres than
from the eighty. Pretty Mrs. Bunch,
glancing at the Germans welI-filled pock-
et-book, said to him:
You should marry
''No one not have me-"
"Some little Dutch girl might"
'tSo?',
Years rolled on. Fritz worked so late
in the field that he MIXED the COWS after
dark. He wore his old blue coat until
bill IOdu oHereQ 10 give q dollar toward
buying him a new one, just for the ap-
pearance of the neighborhood Mr.. Bunch
rode to town behind the span of bays. He
now borrowed money from Fritz, mort
gaging the farm and stock. Mr. Bunch
died, the debts unpaid. The property,
having for years decreased in value, must
be sold. leaving little for the widow and
her two boys, aged 10 and II. Fritz said
to her:
Der leetle boys could drive oop der
cows und dig 'taters. Let dem live nit
me-"
She consented, and the boys, fond of
Fritz, threw up their hats and turned
somersaults on the grass. A thunder
storm in July drove Fritz from haying
to the Bunch farm house. The widow,
fearing the lightning, was glad to see
him, giving him the best plush chair in
the parlor, filling and lighting his pipe.
As the smoke curled up over his head he
said:
Der farm vhas mine?"
''Yes, Fritz"
Der span of bays vhas mine?"
"Yes, Fritz"
''Der leetle boys vhas mine?'
