the Government, as to support pauper
costs four times as much as the amount the
Government pays any one pensioner.
The operation of the system has been
watched with great interest in Germany,
and the English Government has also given
it considerable attention. with view to its
ultimate adoption, with certain necessary
notifications In that country, should its re-
suits prove satisfactory.
The scheme is pet Idea with the German
Government, but it is said to be becoming
equally popular with the people. The sys-
TEN is compulsory, no German workman
over is years of age having any choice in
the matter OF complying with the law. He
is then compelled to begin payment of his
weekly quota, his employer likewise being
obliged to pay an annual sum for him.
Thus in his old age he comes into tie an
nual receipt of sum which Is the result of
his own saving, and which places him at
least above pauperism.
The system smacks strongly Of paternal-
ism, and may even be termed an exhibition
of governmental tyranny, but it has certain
practical features. the wisdom of which
cannot be denied.

Christmas affords an example Of the force
Of the uuwritten law in the human heart.
Whatever legal recognition there is of the
day is a result, not q cause. How people in
all parts Of the civilized world came to be
inspired to make this the greatest holiday
Of the year is a matter upon which sermons
ay be written. The fact is more within
the province Of a newspaper. Christmas is
the only holiday observed in America which
announces itself month in advance. No
proclamation is needed to call TO mind the
fact that Christmas day is coming. The
signs at first are almost imperceptible.
Perhaps some new Christmas toy in the
shop windows attracts the attention of
young people and reminds parents that
there are other duties to be attended TO than
the provision of food and clothes. The I'M
written law which created the day seems to
have been inspired by a tender regard for the
little ones. An especially pleasant feature
of the day is the provision made for the chill
dren of the poor. How many thousand
women have been engaged at least half their
time in the last month in preparing presents
for little orphans will never be known. But
the result shows that quite large proportion
Of the throngs that crowd streets and stores
are not uamindful of the claims of charity.
In California Christmas is shorn somewhat
OF the characteristics Christmas writers have
endowed it with. Santa Claus personifies
frost, and his coming is announced by the
merry jingle of sleigh-bells. But the genial
old myth gets here without either frost or
bells, and the warmth of his welcome is not
affected by the fact that he has not observed
all the customs required OF him in colder
countries. From business point of view
the season this year is success. There
has been but two or three days of rain to in
terrupt the tide Of shoppers passing in and
out of stores. For some days the force of
clerks has been reinforced in numbers and
required to work evenings as we'll as days
The holiday business in most branches has
been as large as the dealers could handle
While Christmas was designed to commem-
crate the birth of the Christian Messiah, the
day has ceased TO possess any distinct relig-
ious character. 1t is observed with about
the same enthusiasm By members of other
religious sects and by people who make no
profession OF religion at all. But in out
growing the special purpose of its origin it
has retained the spirit of him 10 whose mem
CRY it was originated. The dag has become
essentially humanitarian. 1t could not per-
wade the civilized world as it has il its spirit
were less liberal and broad.

A Voluble Salesman Paralyzes Coun-
try Customer.
One Of Waterville's dry-goods houses has
head clerk who is a most accomplished
salesman and is kept busy from morn till
eve by customers DESTROYS of being waited
upon by him. Not long ago he was highly
compimented He had a countryman in the
store and was showing him a very hand
some piece of dress goods, not with any
hope of selling it, still there was some slight
chance of so doing, and, besides, it is neces-
sary, as our friend claims, to keep constantly
in practice.
So he dashed ahead in fine style, praising
the richness of the pattern, extoled the
texture of the fabric, held il up to fayora-
for years to come. and, In short. let loose a
torrent OF eloquence. in which it was diff
cult to distinguish which was most flattered,
the good taste of the admirng rustic or the
quality of the magnificent stuff. The mans
eyes flashed with pride at complimentary
illusions to himself and with unconcealed
establishment at the development of beauty
in the goods and fiuency in the salesman.
Catching our friend by the arm he ex-
claimed Stay right here one minute"
and rushed out.
''EloqueIre" stood still, little bothered.
holding the bolt of goods across both hands,
just as though he had frozen in the attitude
in which he had so thoroughly impressed
the rural gentleman. Meanwhile this last
ment oned individual whiSked two bounc-
ing girls out of n carryall that stood in front
of the store, and. half pushing, half pulling
them, brought them up in front of him with
the fluent tongue.
'Gals, stand there; right there, Sally.
And now, mister, cut loose agin. l just
want the gals TO hear YOU"
1t is almost needless to saythat our friend
was utterly overwhelmed with his emotions
and for at least once 10 his life failed in his
utterance, to the great disappointment of
both father and daughters. The man
bought the piece of goods and no doubt will
always thick with regret what the daugh-
tiers missed.-LewiSton Journal.

A COOPERATIVE RAILROAD.

A railroad building scheme that presents
some novel features is being projected by
the founders Of the American Cooperative
Colony at TopOlobampO, Mexico. When
this colony was forming valuable conces-
sions were obtained by the founders from
the Mexican Government. The colony has
since become very prosperous, aud as these
concessions have never been forfeited it is
now proposed to utilize them. Some time
since the founders announced In the Mer-
qcd1f findncler that the projectors of the
road now have money enough on hand to
build and equip the first fifteen miles of the
railway and telegraph, and that The colony
has within Itself the labor and skill requi-
site to survey and construct the road build
the bridges, depots. freight-houses, wharves
and shops. and has also experienced men to
operate the trains and telegraph line. This.
it is estimated. constitutes about three
fifths OF the total cost of the entire plant.
and that aside from this it will only be
necessary to bond the road for $4,000 per
mile, and the road, therefore, will have only
10 meet the $500 interest per mile per year.
This is a small indebtedness compared with
that of the Mexican Central Railway, which
is bonded for S3S. zoo per mile, but which
earned $1,000 per mile the first year after it
was opened. The colony proposes to con-
struct the road on the basis Indicated in
this announcement. This is the first in
stance known where incorporated labor has
ever contracted to receive railroad securi-
ties for its services, and where capital has
been invested upon such basis OF
agreement. If the project sueceeds-and no
very serious reason appears on the surface
why it may MOTT may be taken as very
fair evidence of what intelligent labor may
accomplish unhampered by capitalistc mo-
nopoly, and II will score brilliant success
for the thoroughly American idea Of Coop

if. If it is true that the United States has
treated Chile unfairly, we cannot make
amends too quickly. There is in this coun-
try little relish for a war with nation Of
less than 100000 of people. War will
in fact be accepted only asSa necessity
which Chile has cast upon us. We
have nothing to gain by war with Chile,
not even military reputation. If the United
States forces should overrun the country in
three months and dictate terms of peace
from Valparaiso or Santiago there would
be no more glory in the act than there is
when a British force in India shoots down
a lot of natives with long-range cannon.
But British comment on American affairs
has been of late years SO malicious that
little more attention is paid to what a Brit
ish paper says than would be paid to the
same article in an organ of our avowed
opponent Whether our avowed opponent
be Italy or Chile British comment finds our
position untenable.
