THE I" COUNTRY LAWYER"
He Hss Compelled Admiration Even
from His Enemies.

He Has Compelled Admiration Even
from HIS Enemies.
We congratulate the Republican party
and the nation at large on the renomina-
ton Of that sterling patriot and wise
statesman, Benjamin Harrison. -Four
years ago Benjamin Harrison was styled
country lawyer" He assumed the
duties Of the presidency modestly.
There has never been anything Of the
brass band about his methods. He has
worked quietly and has achieved unex-
pected successes. He has commanded
respect from the unwilling and has
grown In popularity until, as we fully
believe, there is not an honest man who
does not consider him an eminently safe
and sagacious executive.
We do not believe there will be any
detection In the party by reason Of his
nomination. Those who opposed him
did 50 ON proper grounds. President
Harrison certainly developed great
strength. The convention spoke for the
party, and we are convinced that the
nomination was the best that could have
been made. Those who thought he was
strong only among Office holders now
see that he is stronger still with the peo-
pie at large.
The Republican party never had more
reason to be satisfied with its prospects
than it has now.-Philadelphia Inquirer.

PRAISE FROM SIR HUBERT.
The Philadelphia Ledger's Tribute u
the Next vice President.


The Republican national convention
admirably finished that which 1t so well
began, when 1t nominated Mr.. Harrison
for president, by nominating Mr.. Reid
for vice president.
Mr.. Reid's career has been as brilliant
as it is distinguished. He has achieved
no honor for which he has not faith
fully labored, or which he has not de-
served to achieve. He represents in
conspicuous degree the sturdy, fbrous
material Of the American character;
of it's active, vital mind, absorbing and
exploiting intelligence, rising to emf
nence through well directed endeavor,
and by the display Of those great quail
ties Of mind and heart which denote
manhood which is honorable and useful
to the world.
Mr.. Reid's life has been singularly
active one. He is not only a man OF af'
fairs, made familiar by experience with
those large problems which occupy the
thought, energy and enterprise Of the
world of business. He has been a pub
licist, diplomatist, and journalist,
this latter being his first and best found
choice and occupation. Mr.. Reid as the
successor Of Horace Greeley In the edi-
torial management and control Of the
New York Tribune has distinctively
honored journalism daily in the pages
of that great newspaper, which has been
made by him to conform to his lofty
ideal Of what an American newspaper
should be. In the narrower though
scarcely less difficult field Of diplomacy
Mr.. Reid during his residence in France
as the American minister to that coun-
try added to the reputation he had pre-
viously made as journalist whose char
acter and work impaired distinction to
journalism.
Mr.. Reid was something more than
persona grata to the government Of
France. He exercised distinctive and
powerful influence in his Office, and SO
well was he considered and so effective
was his diplomacy that he was able to
achieve material commercial advantages
for the United States and to strengthen
the bonds of good feeling between the
two great republics, that Of the Old
World and that Of the New.
Mr.. Reid is q man Of broad culture, of
good Judgment, Of attractive personal
manner; dignifed, courteous and con-
siderate. He possesses all desirable re-
quisites for the Office to which he has
been nominated, and if elected to 1t he
will be worthy successor to the present
distinguished incumbent, Vice President

A Pilgrim strolled at the carly dawn,
Where river flowed by the sea,
To watch the ships when the tide came In,
Aud see what their freight might be;
noble ship that had braved tho storms
Was anchored outside the bar,
While an unknown flag streamcd from her
mast,
Untouched by the trace of star.
Near by the bluff WAS the ruin old
Where q busting city had stood.
Where wealth was mined from under her
hills
And was wrought from the wayside wood;
Bat the anvil was gone from the block
And the wheel of the mill was still
The tenement rows were tenantlcss,
In the city under the hill.
There were signs Of better days gone by
A church with toppling tower.
That stood a sentinel OF the dead
In the yleam Of that morning hour;
And blackoned timbers Of years agopc
Wcro casting their shadows Of gloom.
The pail OF doath-op forsakcn streets
That were hushed as the voiceless tomb.
And fields untitled on he hillside stood
With their waste Of briar aud thorn.
That once were the fields OF nodding plumcs
With their bountiful wealth OF corn;
Inc fOhuWuy to tne CITY WI. foet.
And the fall OF the foot unheard.
The only sound on the misty air
Was the pines that the sea breeze stirred.
The tide came In. and the ship rode In,
Well frcighted from over the sea,
With tho wares that pauper labor wrought
In o land where hei ports are free.
Her hold WINS filled with iron aud steel.
To on inland city consigned.
Thni stood In the shades Of towering hills
That were teeming with wealth unmined.
The Pilgrim asked Of the mkte on board,
As she passed by ruined mill.
what plague has smitten the people hero
In this city under the hili1'
And the mate replied, with naughty pride.
To the question the pilgrim made,
Tint the plague that laid the city low
Was the pcstilence Of free trade.

GLASGOW PRICES.

The above constitutes The actual house
rent per year for three small rooms, or,
IN American money, eS9.56. At the
first opportunity shall give You the d.
mepsions Of some of these rooms, and
then you will notice more particularly
tho difference between tbs two coun-
tries.
House carpenters receive Sid an hour,
while ship carpenters receive but It'd.
Thoy work in the winter fifty-one hours
per week, and in the summer fifty-four
Lours. Thus the housei carpenter re-
coives In American money during the
summer $9.1S, and in the winter $S.67
per week. The ship carpenter receives
SS. 10 In tho summer, and $7.65 in the
winter-less loss of time for bad
weather. These wages are for first
class worlrmen. Apprentices receive
very little, and are obliged to serve a
long term before becoming competent
to receive these wages. Mr.. Jack, Of
whom / spoke, is preparing to appear
before the Royal Commission, at Lon
don, on the 10Th, hence his reticence in
talking to me. He gave me none Of the
above information (which was given by
the laborers themselves) but promised
to send me all his statistics after June
18th, when shall be able to give you
still more information about Glasgow.
The laboring classes of Great Britain
but especially here in Glasgow, are i'm
proving rapidly, but as one Of the
magistrates personally told me, "the
greatest enemy they had to fight, and
feared, was drink" just SO long as
the people drank the way they did, just
10 long would il be a moose around their
necks, and he wondered that the cities
of America had not provided some
means of reformation and not follow
the old example. The amalgamation of
Worlds labor societies is steadily in
creasing, and more well educated and
better fitted men, are stepping forward
to fight the battles, every day, and that
they may succeed is my earnest wish as
leave Glasgow.
Now that our labors in Glasgow are
finished let rs take pleasure trip,
through the famous Trossachs to the
beautiful city of Edinburgh.
Leaving Glasgow at 7:45 in the morn
ing, from the Queen street station we
pass through series Of tunnels and
bridges and are whirled out through
the open country. now between lofty
mountains, now on the banks OF the
Clyde, now through green fields and
pasture lands, where sheep are contin-
ually grazing, until the peak of Ben
Lomond comes In view and we reach
the pier at Balloch. Here we are at the
foot of Loeb Lomond, where the
Queen" beautiful little steamer,
awaits ms and we soon are swiftly
moving through the waters Of this most
beautiful lake. One but needs copy
