Gov. FRANCIS has acted wisely in
pardoning the printer who was sen
fenced to Jail for nine months for
climbing into a railroad car a short
time ago. There is plenty of mater

passing ridiculous sentences on men
who are, at the worst, guilty of a
triaing act of trespass. This is an
other example of the folly of legis-
alton in too many instances here

NUMBER "a.


WE find this interesting story in
the Mexico Ledger "a man who
wanted to learn what profession he
would have his son enter, put him in
a room withCa Bible, an apple. and
a dollar bill. If he found him, when
he returned, reading the Bible, he
would make clergyman out of him;
if eating the apple, a farmer; and if
interested in the dollar bill, a banker.
When he did return, he found the boy
sitting on the bible, with the dollar
bill in his pocket, and the apple al
most devoured. He made a politi-
clan of him."

THE following letter from Governor
Francis-to W. c. Hall, labor commits
sioner for the state, explains itself:

~ ltAtaAAAc
DEAR STR:-I desire to call your attention
to the bi-weekly payment bill passed at the
last session of the legislature and which went
sto effect on the 22d inst. 1t requires mine
operators to pay their employees at least once
in two weeks, and does not authorize the
Withholding of any portion of the wages due
them. 1t differs from the old law in that the
latter only required payment once per month
and permitted the retention of four days wa
ges on any pay day.
| suggest that you send to the mine opera
tors OF the state copies of the new law and
advise them that it is the intention of the au-
thorities to see that the spirit and letter of
the law is observed and enforced in every re-
spect. Respectfully,
ID. r. FRANCIS, Governor
Mr.. Hall is having the law printed
in circular form and every one of the
$40 mine operators in the state will
receive a copy and have his attention
directed to the act. No effort will be
spared to enforce the law fully and
completely.

The Republican Situation.

The GtObe-Den1ocrat of st. Louis
in commenting on the political situa-
ton in this country says:
''The present condition of the Re
publican party IS one that calls loud
ly for practical wisdom in the adjust
ment of issues and politics. It is fol-
~ to ignore the fact that large num-
bers of voters in all the states have
been alienated from its standard, and
that they must be won back if it is to
elect the next president. These men
have not gone over to the Democratic
party, and do not wish to go there;
but the logic of politics will ultimate
ly take them there If timely and
proper consideration of their views
and feelings shall be refused or neg
lected. They believe in the funda-
mental principles of the party as
much as they ever did, and cherish
pronounced pride in its past achieve
ments; but they are not satisfied with
the way in which its affairs have late
ly been conducted, and will not vote
its ticket if such management is to be
continued. It is the duty of the Re
publican leaders to face this fact
squarely and deal with it in prompt
and reasonable way. The lesson of the
late election is SO plain that there is
no excuse for misunderstanding it.
Those who say that the result was an
accident are willfully blind to its OBJ
viOus and positive causes; and the
course which they are now pursuing
is calculated to bring about a similar
calamity two years hence.
It is of the first Importance that no
more risks be taken and no more ex-
periments tried on the theory that the
Republican masses will stick to the
party in any event. We have had
fair warning that their votes cannot
be counted upon in that confident
and complacent manner They de-
sire certain things which must be
granted, or they viii do as they did
last November"

The Treatment of the Jews in Rus
sic.

The London Times gives some
facts concerning the barbarous and
illiberal conduct of Russia toward
the Jews that viii be of general inter
est.
Jews are forbidden to live any
where throughout the empire of Rus
STA except in fifteen governments or
provinces of the SO called pale. To
this law there are but two exceptions
worth noting, namely: /, merchants
of the highest guild, and men who
have passed certain professional ex-
aminations: and End mechanics and
artisans obtaining licenses to live
temporarily outside the pale. So
much for domicile: now for educa-
ton. In all schools and universities
within the pale of settlement the
the number of Jewish pupils is 1imi-
ted to 10 per cent of the total num-
Der of students; outside the pale the
number is restricted to 5 percent,
and In st. Petersburg and Moscow
to 3. This rule cannot be evaded by
sending Jewish children to school in
distant places, where the smaller pro-
portion of Jews leaves a few acaEcies
seemingly available. For Jewish child
rem are only admitted to schools in
places where their parents have a
right of residence. Lastly, as to oc-
cupation. A Jew cannot own, farm,
or rent land in any form, or folclose a
mortgage on it, or own shares in a
mine. He cannot be manager or
steward on an estate, or rent a coun-
try inn. He cannot even live in an
agricultural district, unless he was
settled there before May, 1882. He
is confined to trades and industries
in cities and towns. But even there
he is subjected to severe restrictions
He cannot practice any industry IN
less he is a member of some guild
and he is liable to be expelled at an,
moment by the master of the guild
who by law must be christian.

D. B. Dyer, of Bellville, returned
Tuesday morning for short visit in
Kirwin. He reports crops slightly
better in Republic county than in
Phillips, last season; yet times are
just as hard or even harder than here,
owing to farm mortgages being larger
and consequently the crop of interest
being heavier.

A New Financial scheme.

It might, doubtless, be an excellent
plan for the government to pay pen
sions for several years In greenbacks
made full legal tender for all dues,
debts and interest whatsoever. A
large amount of them would be con-
stantly returning to the treasury IN
payment of taxes and custom dues
It Will not be done, for such issues
are too unpopular with Wall street,
which govern our finances In its own
interests and not for the people, At
this time, when the government IS en-
barrassed for funds to pay pensions,
could anything be more sensible
than to issue a kind of currency so
very popular among the great mass
Of citizens? There are two fatal OBJ
jections to it. One is, that such issu-
es will tend to lower interest on mon
ey; the other is, that every legal ten
der bill is a missionary among the
people, teaching them the lesson of
common sense on money. Each dollar
of this kind of money is hated by those
xho live by usury and share gamb-
ling, and is hunted up and destroyed
or withdrawn from circulation. But
on the principal that the debt of a
creditor is good with his debtor; that
a credit cancls debt, the bills of a
government are perfect for all money
purposes among its people-for the
fpeople are all the time owing reven-
GUS to the government, and government
is all the time owing the revenues
back to the people In addition to
this government has the legal power to
make It's issues legal tender for all
debts and dues whatsoever. This
legal power coupled with the same
power to raise revenues by taxation
forms the most substantial and logi-
cal basis for the currency ever devised
by human wit. It is so good, so per-
! fectly logical and common sense that
two hundred years ago it formed the
basis for currency the most popular
among the great commercial nations
of Europe and that too although there
was no means to make 1t legal tender
It was based on public confidence in
the city of Amsterdam. No money
was so useful none SO popular as the
"bank money of Amsterdam" which
was worth more than gold wherever
ships carried goods, from the coast 'oi
Africa and the East Indies to the
north coast of Norway.-St. Joe Her
