That's the kind of medicine to try.
Doesn't it seem SO?

IT is stated that Colonel Vance does not take kindly to the unit rule and will vote for whosoever he pleases at the Chicago convention. Itis clearly his right to do this, even though majority of the Connecticut delegation favor the unit rule. Mr Vance must know the wishes of his constituents; and knowing, should obey. It should be remembered that the delegates go to Chicago unin- structed by the state convention. Whether Vance is for Hill or Cleveland has nothing to do with the case. That Is another story.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

President Eliot, of Harvard college, has stirred up another hornets nest by saying to Connecticut council of edu- cators:
 "We are all wrong in supposing that we have the best school system in the world. There is not a country in the north of Europe that has not a better system. Immigrants who come to our shores from abroad will be found to have received far better school training in what are denominated the common branches than the average of the rural population of this country.
 "In our democratic schools we close the gate to the scholar in all interesting studies after the age of thirteen. There is not chance for scIence or literature, unless one can go to high school"
 It is much easier to denounce Presi- dent Eliot an enemy of the public schools than to meet his criticism, says the Boston Pilot. To consider single branch which should be among the most important of any studied by the children of the country-what does the public school do in the way of teaching American history2 That history abounds in tales of romantic interest, of valor and enterprise, which would entrance auy boy or girl if told with halC the art of a dime novel. Every European child is taught to learn and love the history of his country; but our children, especially in the higher schools, are given five parts of English to one of American history, and the latter is often nothing more than an in- Idigestible "digest" of constitutional law and functions of government. Presi- dent Eliot is too sweeping in his charges on some points; but he deserves thanks rather than our censure for call ing attention to the graver defects in our popular education, defects which will never be remedied by the people who think the system already perfect.

Is the Price of Sugar to Advance ?

posted in the Franklin Sugar Refinery of E. 0. Knight & Co.,, recently absorbed by the Sugar Trust announces that no more orders would be taken from pur- chasers of sugar, as the firm had over sold for all grades. This announcement is taken as 8 movement on the part of the Sugar Trust to facilitate B rise in sugar. A member of the firm of E. c. Mcknight & Co.,, declared that it was to prepare for the contingency of an en- forced shutdown that the action was taken. The poor condition of the boil CTS at the refinery, he said, made neces- sary the suspension of production.

IN the summer the domestic consump- tion of coal is lessened considerably, and the profits of the ''combine" would naturally show a corresponding de- crease. But by compelling the public to pay larger price for lesser quan- tity, the coal barons calculated to inflate their profits and keep them up to the mark necessary to insure the 'Fgilt edge' status of their stocks in Wall street. This is the philosophy of the Reading. combination; and until the people de- termine to take hold of the monopoly and break it up it will continue to rob them in the same fashion. The "pro- tection" on winch it relies to keep out competition does not protect the work ingman, as has been proved; rather it makes him the helpless slave of league of heartless corporations.

AnuIan agents.

Respecting recent move on the part of the government to appoint army off, cers to act as Indian agents Harper's Weekly advances the following opinion:
 The proposed scheme to appoint off, cers of the army as Indian agents is ap- proved by the wisest friends of tho In- dians. Upon such a point the opinion of those who have made an intelligent study of the whole Indian question is alone worthy of attention and respect, for it ia not founded upon theory that Indians are vermin and the true Indian policy extermination, but upon friendly regard for the interests of tho Indians and the honor of the gov ernment. It is not necessary, of course, that the appointment of agents should be limited to army officers or to any other class. There arc many officers who would be as unsuitable as many civilians. But the selection of officers fitted to be Indian agents would in- stantly raise the standard of the In- dian service, and compel the appoint ment of civilian agents of the same character.

JUST now the whole world is search ing for something 'cheap." Cheap men, cheap women and cheap children, are sought for on the one hand, and cheap food, cheap clothing and cheap shelter on the other. No matter how much sorrow, suffering or misery it may cost, if it is only cheap to the pur- chaser. Such a proposition is all wrong and means poverty and want to the laborer. Just and equitable conditions among the people demand that nothing produced by labor should be cheap. Cheap products mean low wages, and low wages mean hunger, nakedness and distress. That nothing is cheap to one producer that is made cheap at the ex- pense of another producer is an econ omic fact which cannot be refuted.

Taking Risks.

The old saw: Nothing venture, noth- ing gain," has good exemplification in the history of MT. Rockefeller. Com paratively few years ago four young men were engaged by Cleveland firm in the capacity of bookkeepers for the salary of twelve dollars each per week. They were active, energetic young, fel- lows and soon began casting about for an available opening which would ad- vance their interests. After many con- ferences it was decided to negotiate a loan and embark in the oil business. At the last moment, however, the magni- tude of the venture and the risks in- volved seemed so great that two of the boys weakened and withdrew from the scheme. They continued as book keepers for awhile, and finally entered business on their own account, with only fair measure of success. The other two organized the gigantic Standard Oil Company and became the richest men in America.

Tmnrovea Contlitions.

The young lady stenographer, with ner novel under her arm, is So common . sight in our streets that people do not reflect how much more allowance is made for her by her employer than would be for her brother or male cousin in the same office. If a young man employed in 8 downtown office were to come to his work with book under his arm he would be told: "See here, young man, this is no place to i'm prove your mind," but to the young lady nothing of the kind is ever said. and 1t seems to be understood that whenever her employers business is not pressing her time is her own. It speaks well for the gallantry of employers, but hardly so well for the young ladies themselves; for certainly it does not look business-like to see the only lady occupant of an office spending half her time sniveling over the imaginary sor- rows of an imaginary heroine; but the young ladies, in spite of their novel reading, have been great help to the offices The young men employed in the same rooms with young ladies are more careful of their personal appear ance, of their habits and of their Ian guage, and on the whole the improve ment is very great.

Auatria'a Exhibit,

A plan has been elaborated for mal- ing the Tyrolese section perhaps the most entertaining part of Austria's ex- hibit at the worlds fair. The purpose in arranging this section will be to give as graphic a representation of Tyrolese life and scenery as possible for 8 back ground to the exhibits of Tyrolese manufacturers. The section will be circular, and the walls will be covered with.a panoramic picture of the. Rhae- tian and Tyrolese Alps, including the Gross-G -Gloclner and Orter peaks and the largest ice fields Tn two cottages at the foot of the mountains two parties of Tyrolese will show their skill in spin ming and weaving silk and in carving. Three women will make lace before the cottage doors. A company of young men and women singers will give sever al concerts daily. The picturesque part of the exhibit will be under the auspices of the hotel and tavern keepers of the Tyrol, and the representations of Tyro- lese scenery will be made for the pur- pose of inducing American tourists in Europe to pass more of their time in the Rhaetian and Tyrolese Alps.

 The Works on Fire, and the Flames Cam
 not be Controlled-Fate of a RescuinE
 Party--One Hundred Families Deprived
 of All Their nTalo Members.
 VIENNA, June 3. 2.-Reports this morn ing from Przibram show that the mine disaster is far worse than was supposed. In the first confusion 1t was believed that ony 40 men were missing, but a house-to-house inquiry among the min ers' families reveals the fact that nearly 200 miners were left in the pit. The flames were supposed to be finally sub dued at the time when the first rescue party went down, but after the IA bodies had been brought up the fire broke out afresh.
 Water was pumped into the mine, but the machinery was inadequate and the fire increased Help was brought from Beraun, the superintendent of the coal mines there sending down a force of men with machinery for flooding the mine more rapidly. When the flames seemed to Abate somewhat, a rescue party went down and returned with Il more dead bodies. They said that they could hear shouts and groans far of in the mine, but that the smoke was so thick and the heat so intense that they did not dare venture it.
 None of the party would return, and two hours passed before foreman could
 find seven men to go down with him. It was then thought that the fire was nearly out, as only thin smoke came from the mouth of the pit, and that the
 miners on the higher levels who had es- capped drowning might be saved.
 The foreman and the seven men tried to make their way in the direction where the snoutS and groans had been
 heard, but the heat was stifling, and
 heavy smoke and fire finally obstructed all progress.
 About 100 yards from the shaft the party were suddenly enveloped in a gust of fire and smoke from side gal, lery. Four men fell unconscious. Their four comrades endeavored to drag them away, but were compelled finally to run for their lives and leave the men to die
 The foreman says there is no doubt that all the men who were left in UhS mine are dead. The heat beyond the point where the four miners were stricken, he said, would have been fatal and the smoke was stifing. He saw tools and garments abandoned In the
 haste of flight, showing by their posi- ' tions that the men had fled away from the shaft.
 Immediately after the foreman's re turn, with the remains of his party. Che ! fire started up again and, despite thI work of the engines is still bnrninC fiercely. Thousands of men, women anG ' children are in the fields around the pit ! The list of the 200 miners believed to have been left in the pit and burned has been posted, so that if any of the mum.
 Der had escaped his friends might come forward with the information. Not ( name has been erased, however, and th'
 continued inquiry of the police in tho | city has been fruitless.
 One hundred families have been de ! prived of all their male members by tn, disaster. Charitable societies in Prague will make an appeal for the sufferers.

IT is demonstrated by the completed census lists of the six New England states, the only portion of the United yet figured out, that a little more than one-half of all the adult males of for eign birth are not naturalized Ameri- can citizens. Judging from the ratio established in New England there must be fully one million adults of for eign birth in the United States who have failed to take advantage of the naturalization laws. This fact is inn portant both as a political and socio- logical factor in the growth of popula- tion.

RICH relatives have a great deal to put up with that must be very disagree able. This is because there are very few people who cannot lay claim to having rich relatives and because in making this claim they invariably add some thing about their being stingy and penurious. I am one of the fortunate few who have no rich relatives, says 8 Detroit Free Press writer, and in con- sequence have been let into secret. It is that a very large majority of those who are chased as rich relatives are merely well to do, and that their stinginess is merely an unwillingness to reclSlessly distribute their bare com petence upon lot of people who per sist in misrepresenting, magnifying and coveting that competence.
