WORTHY OF IMITATION.

Mr.. Robt. Mitchell, Secretary and
Manager of the Young Mems Chris
tian Polytechnic Institute, London,
England, is on his way to this country
to complete arrangements for a re-
markable excursion to this country
during the Worlds Fair. He pro-
poses to bring several hundred young
mechanics and clerks to Chicago to
view the Worlds Fair, and make
their trip so cheap that all can pay
their own way.
The matter of handling a large
number of people in this way is not an
experiment with him, as he has had
charge of large parties in trips on the
continent, and also took a large party
to the Paris exposition. He has
savings bank in the institute, where
the members make small weekly de-
posits long ahead of the excursions
which they indulge in, and they COM
menced to make small deposits over
year ago for the proposed American
trip. In one reference to the trip we
noticed that Mr.. Mitchell expects to
make the trip, and stay here long
enough to view the entire exposition
and study some special features, and
return for not to exceed $3.50 each.
He comes to this country to make
contracts with the railways to trans
port his party from New York to Chi
cago. He has already secured ocean
passage for a large portion of the party.
This is scheme worthy of imita-
tion in this country. Clubs could be
formed in our cities and towns, which
under the management of compe-
tent business man, would enable
hundreds to visit the Worlds fair
that otherwise would be unable to 60.
Large parties could get not only bet
ter railroad rates, but better rates
while in Chicago, than one or two
persons would be able to obtain.
The value of the exposition as an
educational factor will toa large ex-
tent depend upon the attendanceit re-
ceives from the laboring classes, and
the largest possible attendance from
all over the country of those of small
means is most desirable. If these
mechanics and clerks from London
on their meager sa. aries can, through
systematic organization, afford to
visit the fair, arrangements ought ito
be perfected whereby thousands of
our countrymen, who feel too poor to
make the attempt alone, can take adj
vantage of this event of life time.

THE interesting proceedings in
Washington just now seem to be be-
fore the House committee on Agri
culture, which is considering the bills
in relation to the dealing in "fu-
lures" Among those who appeared
before the committee Thursday was
A. j. Sawyer, the big grain dealer of
Minneapolis. Among other things
he claimed that if the anti-option bill
became law and went into effect be-
fore spring, it would produce a ire
mendous panic in this country. This
point is disputed by Senator Wash
burn, who states that the bill will
go into effect 30 days after its passage,
and in the meantime the price of
wheat will go up % cents busheI.
There is no disputing the fact, howev-
er, that the passage of the bill would
cause a panic among the spectators,
at least. From all reports the CON-
mittee seems disposed to make a thor
ough Investigation into the subject,
and from the fund of information
which it will receive upon the mat
ter, it would seem that a measure
that will strike at the root of the evil,
could be produced.

A DEcIsION has been rendered by
the Supreme Court of this state
which is of interest to all cities of the
state. fhe suit in question was
brought by party in Saint Paul to
recover $3.50 paid as license fee for a
male employment agency, on the
ground that the ordinance was void,
as the fee required was the same for a
portion of the year as for the entire
year. Judge Mitchell in rendering
the decision of the court said in SUBJ
stance that while the fee charged
could not be deemed unreasonable for
the year, the ordinance IN demanding
the same amount for six months, or
even one day, was unreasonable, and
was held to be void because it made
no provision for shorter period than
one year. The court further said: SIT
is an ungrateful task for courts to be
thus constantly declaring municipal
ordinances void, but it is inevitable so
long as the municipal authorities con-
tinue to enact them without the
least regard to the most elementary
legal principles" Under this deci-
sion it would seem that any ordi-
nance which provides a license fee,
and makes no provision for a gradual
ed scale for fraction of a year, is
lull and void and city councils in
framing such should be careful and
avoid such a mistake.

IN view of the recent decision of
the q. S. Supreme court, the Louis
lana lottery company announces its
intention to retire from business. In
fact its exclusion from the mails,
forces it to take this step, and it will
no longer fight for existence. This is
great victory in the cause of a high
er level of morality, and shows the
pessimist that majority of our peo-
pie cannot be diverted from the path
of what is right, by the brides of a
great corporation.

JUSTICE DEFEATED.
Wife Murderer Peter Emo Hangs Him
self in Lawrence JAIN

LAWRENCE, Mass, April 25-Peter Emo,
confined in Jail here, awaiting the grand
jury's action for the murder of his wife,
Minnie, &C mnitted suicide by hanging in
his cell yesterday, while the other prison
ers were attending religious services in
the guard room.
Emo, being charged with capital offense,
was not permitted to attend these SER
vices, and it was not until the prisoners
had gone back to their departments that
,he suicide was discovered.
The ho was hanging by a twisted
sheet, one end of which was fastened to
the top Of the iron door, and the other
lied about Eno's neck After Emo had
liked the sheet he drew his body up in
such Il way thai his feet just touched the
door, and strtugulatiOn resulted.
An officer was on guard about thirty
feet from the cell when the ed was COM
mitted. but did not tdet'ct anything wrong
Before taking his life he prisoner had re-
moved his shoes, no duuhJ lest he should
make noise while carrying out his pur-
pose.
During his confinement he had been
quiet and seemed ndsposed to talk with
the officers, although at one time he told
one of them that upon the night of the
murder he went inro a drug store and
purchased portion of paris green, which
he took.
