HIRED HEs WEDDING DRESS.

A young woman about to marry
received $500 to be spent on her
wedding dress. She called upon
friend who had been married six
months before in a beautiful cos
tune for pointers.
s.It was such beautiful dress, .
she said, ''and our figures are ~
much alike. | know one ofthe same
kind would just suit me-"
Then an i.leA flashed upon her.
She liesitated, though. Finally she
went on.

said, III don't care TO throw away

NO ovER-CoNF1DENCE WANTED.

The results of the elections in Vermont
and Maine, while productive of no real
encouragement to the free trade party,
are such as call for a word of warning to
the supporters of Protection. Over con-
fdence was the cause of the reduced
Republican majorities, and that is feel
ing which cannot be safely INDUCED in.
The strength of the enemy must in all
cases be over-estimated rather than dis
counted. Strong and invincible as is the
principle of Protection, and united though
the forces are whose battle cry it is, there
must be no apathetic dependence on the
inherent weakness of the free trade
cause and no undue calculating on the
internecine stripe of its supposed sup
porters.
Every individual citizen owes it to his
country to put forth his best efforts on be-
half of that which he believes essential to
Americas welfare, no matter how over
whelming majority or how Insignificant
a minority in support thereofis customary
in his own State or district. Every vote
carries with it more or less weight as an
example outside of its intrinsic value in
deciding the result of an election, and it
behooves every patriot to cast his vote for
this reason. Hope and expectancy are
legitimate, but they must not be allowed
for moment to obviate the necessity for
strenuous exertions for their fulfillment.

REPUBLICANS AT BUFFALO.

The National League of Republican
Clubs opened its proceedings at Buffalo
yesterday under bright auspices and amid
glowing enthusiasm. This organization is
of especial value and importance from the
manner in which it appeals to the youth
of the country. Its numbers indicate the
extent to which the present generation is
imbued with the value of Protection as
the best and, in fact, the only guarantee
of the growth of American industries and
the maintenance of Americas S prosperity
at its maximum. In his speech to the
delegates General Clarkson rightly gave
prominence to the labor issue as ''the ris-
ing question of the time" He pointed
out the right of the party of Protection to
the support of labor, and the disaster
which would result from the folly of per-
mitting free trade doctrinaires to obtain
possession of the reins of government
The advantages which Protection has
hitherto brought to the American work.
ingman in particular, as well as to the
country at large, make the expectation
that its supporters will continue in their
special consideration of the whole labor
question practical certainty.
One of the most notable passages in
Mr.. Clarkson's speech is that in which he
said: 81 believe the settlement of all
labor troubles will come by the adoption
of the systems of profit-sharing and CO.
operation and some equitable form of
arbitration" The DISPATCH has fire.
quently pointed out that this is the most
hopeful way to solve the problem, and
experience on the part of those who adopt
those systems is constantly adding to tine
evidence of their value Meanwhile the
policy of Protection, while it cannot settle
disputes between employers and EN- :
ployes, is the only means by which the
workman of this country can be saved
from sinking to the level of European
operatives by the force of open competi-

AN UNDERTAKING FOR THE COUNTY.

What few earnest people can do when
really aroused is shown by the prospect of
success for the proposal to get better
water for Allegheny than the foul liquid
upon which that city now depends. The
meeting of the citizens on Wednesday
night, at which large subscriptions were
pledged to push the work at once, voiced
rightly the public sentiment that con-
dition of affairs liable to become as deadly
as it is disgraceful should no longer exist
But while it is admirable to make pres
ent provision for early escape from the
worst features of the situation-such as
will be done by extending the infuent
pipe to a point above the sewers which
broader view will have to be taken in the
ultimate disposal of the question.
Anyone can see that the line of devel-
opment of local industries and population
is along our river banks. As towns multi
ply there, the water of the rivers becomes
less fit for human consumption. In times
of epidemics of infectious diseases, the
rivers are the most efficient transporters of
the deadly germs.
the cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny must
eventually 90 to the mountains, or else to
the lakes along the northern frontier Of
the State. 1t is also evident that neither
Pittsburg nor Allegheny can be thorough
ly safe unless the adjacent towns cooper
ate and likewise use pure water. An
epidemic starting in one of the adjacent
towns is likely to spread far beyond the
corporate limits. The question of SANTA
ton and water supply is, in fine, one
in which the whole county is more or less
interested. This, in place of being unde-
slrable, could be made of advantage to all,
by securing better service than any sep
arate city or borough could get for itself
Whatever temporary arrangements are
desirable, it will some day become neces-
sary to consider the water supply from the
county standpoint
