LABOR AND ITS REWARD.

Somebody recently asked Mr.. Pills
bury, the great flour miller of Mime
apolis, what advice he could give a
young man. The answer came prompt
ly: "Do three times as much work as
he is paid for"
This will doubtless appear to great
many young men to be very hard advice.
To give more than he gets paid for,
either in goods or labor, runs counter to
the average Americans ideas of smart
ness. Probably, however, Mr.. Pills.
bury would have explained his meaning
in such fashion as to have taken the
bold and evident appearance of injus-
tice ont of his sententious sentence had
he been allowed TO fully state his ideas.
II is certain that young men entering
upon the serious business Of life can
limit their growth and their usefulness
in no no more sure manner than by anx-
iously guaging the amount Of service
they give by their own estimate Of their
own worth. II is disastrous for them

generous equivalent Of the wage re-
| ceived.

The reorganization Of the Republican
State Central Committee puts the ex-
ecutive force of the party in splendid
condition to organize and conduct an
earnest and forcible campaign, though
the organization was not undertaken be-
cause the efficiency of the officials who
have retired was questioned. Messrs.
Goodwin and Goff found themselves
unable to devote the needed time and
effort to the work of the committee,
and so they resigned.
The new chairman and secretary are
wisely and happily chosen. No man in
the party is better equipped to lead it
to victory IN November than Col.
White, and no better second in CON-
mand could have been chosen than Mr..
Warner.
1t is becoming daily more and more
evident that the Republican ticket will
be indorsed in this State by the voters,
but the question of the size of the ma
jority remains to be determined at the
polls.
1t is certain that the Republican party
organization will conduct a vigorous
campaign, and use all proper means to
bring to the polls the full Republican
strength. There is plenty of hard work
to be done. The Democracy ought to
be so signally beaten. this fall that its
hopes Of speedily gaining control Of the
State will be shown TO be wholly vain.
The Democrats have for several years
cherished hope that the good people of
RHODE ISLAND would intrust the gov
ernment to them. This hope must be
summarily "dashed to earth" this fall.
There are certainly enough Republican
votes to do il. and Messrs. White and
Warner are just the men to bring them
to the polls.

Manager Charles T. Cook of the cele-
brated jewellers, Tiffany & Co., OF New
York, is quoted by the New York Sun
as announcing the intention of the COM
pany to erect big factory near Newark
to employ $50 hands in the manufacture
of the higher grades of cutlery. Mr..
Cook gives this explanation Of the COM
pany's intentions: "Our experimental
work shows that we can make as good
blades as are made in England. Our
mountings are better. We can COM
pete in price because of the tariff, and
we can produce what the people want
on this side of the water in the matter
of styles and sizes. One Of the difficult
ties we have encountered in dealing
with foreign cutlery manufactures is
that they are too conservative. They
insist on our taking what they make,
and will not change their styles to make
what conditions of life in this country
demand"
So it seems that the desire for quality
as well as economy prompted this firm
to set up its new factory in this country.
OF the extent Of the Transformation
wrought by the tariff Mr.. Cook further
gives some idea in these sentences
There is no politics in this. It is purely
n matter Of business. There was time
when the only workmen we employed
were few watch repairers and engravers
We imported nearly everything we sold.
Now there Is hardly thing we sell which
we do not make ourselves. There Is no
doubt that the tariff has made this possi-
BILE. and enabled us to employ 1000 work
men In manufacturing where we formerly
employed none.
The people of Newark, who have the
families Of these contented American
workingmen among them would prob
ably miss the industry if it were to be
withdrawn. So would PROVIDENCE il
our great jewelers. were all to shut
down because Of a Democratic raid on

HUMILIATION WITHOUT FRUITS.

Mr.. Ceveland's visit to New York, to
attempt to placate Senator Hill, or to
offer submission to the great joss of the
Democracy in the Empire State, was a
dismal failure.
Mr.. Cleveland was compelled to make
the visit by the Tammany men in
charge of the campaign. He at first re-
fused to go, but Mr.. Whitney put such
pressure upon him that he finally yielded.
Having gotten Mr.. Cleveland securely
corralled in New York hotel the Tam
many men turned their attention to
Mr.. Hill, expecting to be able to bring
him easily to the 'conference" they had
planned; but Mr.. nill preferred to re-
main serenely in Elmira, and sent word
that it was impossible" for him to visit
New York at the particular time Mr..
Whitney wanted him there.
So the humiliation of Cleveland at the
feet of Hill, though complete enough to
satisfy the vanity and desire for ven-
geance of anybody. has failed to close the
breach in the Democratic party that has
been gaping wider and wider since the
Chicago convention.
1t looks as though Senator Hill is i'm
placable, and has determined to allow
the faction of the party that ruled at
Chicago to do the work of the cam
paign. Such course is not only natural,
but is really the only logical and dignified
one open to him, in the light Of his past.
Were he now to consent to any kind Of
an arrangement with the Cleveland
wing of the party he would discredit
his past and stultify himself to such an
extent as to totally destroy his future.
1t seems to us that our Democratic
friends attach too much Importance to
the attitude of Mr.. Hill, or else that
they confess to radical weakness with
in their party that proves them almost
wholly devoid of principle. Are we to
understand that one mans desire for
Office has more influence upon voters
than the alleged principles exploited by
the platform? Why else is the present
attitude of Mr.. Hill Of such tremendous
importance? He is, he says, Demo
crat. Mr.. Cleveland also says he is a
Democrat. Why cannot all good Demo
Gratis vote for good Democrat for
president, whether it is the particular
Democrat who wanted the nomination
more than the one who got it or not?
We greatly fear that our friends, the
enemy, have got their foot in their
mouth to such an extent that their
chances of success at the polls next
November are not only endangered, but
hopelessly lost. We cannot weep.

NEWPORT.

The deadlock in Newport is scanda
lous. It is astonishing. It is almost in.
credible. What is to be done about it
Democrats and Republicans agreed
that Newport ought to be redistricted.
Under the direction Of the Legislature
of the State the work was done, legally
done.
The time for the city election drew
near. The Mayor and Board Of Alder
men omitted to designate polling places,
as required by law. Because of this
neglect, and in spite of an opinion by
City Solicitor Honey, who is also Mayor
Honey and Gar Honey, the clerk omit
ted to advertise the election. Thus it
cannot be held on the day named.
Democrats blame their own city clerk
for this situation. 1t is unreasonable
blame. Mr.. Stevens was quite right in
getting Mayor Honey's advice and in
terpreting 1t by contraries. He knows.
as every intelligent man knows, that
Mr.. Honey never does or advises the
right thing when he could possibly do
or advise the wrong.
Besides, how could the clerk give
notice of election? Where should he
advise the citizens to assemble to cast
their ballots?
The attempt Of the Honey officials to
to kill scapegoat for their sins is futile.
The citizens will hold no man RESPONSE
BILE for the danger they run of losing
their votes. They hold responsible the
system, Honeyism, Czarism, the city
government as it stands, root and
branch, part and parcel. They are not
in mood to temporize or chop logic.
They are being deprived of a citizens
dearest right and they don't like it.
We incline to the belief that Newport
citizens will, sooner or later, vote this

. rich and golden harvest must sow the

of profigacy for the young man who Is
seeking to make place for himself. Ii

While the great -four maker OF the
West did not mean literally that Young
men should "do three times as much
work" as they are paid for, he did
mean that they should exhibit that zeal
which is born of interest in the thing to
be done and in honest and earnest in
tention to do it as well as in them lies.
There is great amount of homely
wisdom in this view, and the advantage
of it is not chiefly on the side Of the en-
ployer. 1t Is the conscientious worker
who gains promotion, and who is in
time evolved into the employer and the
capitalist.
Sometimes people indulge in wonder
that such large proportion of those
who are compelled to earn their way
in the world remain all their days mere
hewers Of wood and drawers Of water.
Nine times in ten the reason is that they
scrupulously measure their service by
the wage meted to them, and carefully
abstain from giving a stroke more Of
work than is bargained for. The men
who progress are those who earn pro-
motion by extra service, either in
quality or in volume. This is almost
invariably the case. Yet we every
where and every day find young men
who are complaining that they are not
appreciated and do not get on, but who
think they are cheated if by any chance
they devote ten minutes extra time to
their occupation. Such young men get
the taste of dead-sea fruit very early in
life, and they always retain it.

WHITTIER AT DANvERs.

There arc few places in New England,
probably, wnere the death OF Whittier
has made as little stir as in the old town
OF Danvers, Mass. where the poet has
spent { he greater part OF his time Tor the
past fifteen years. ----------
Dauvers is n somnolent place whose
broad streets are shaded by old elms and
naples. Oak Knoll, the home OF the
poet, lies perhaps mile and half from
"the Plains" the main village, along a
coun try road, brilliant this month with
coral barberries. The many gabled brown
house Is SO hidden among trees that the
chance passer though curious, seldom
got a glimpse of the Quaker bard In his
favorite armchair on the piazza, and
Whittier's face, let alone the sound OF
his voice, was almost unknown to the
townspeople.
