COLONEL CoCKERILL, of New York,
who knows a great deal about Demo-
cratic leaders, writes the Herald that
all the talk of lack ofmoney by the Dem
ocratic national committee is q blind, as
'the ~millionaires and plutocrats who
are seeking to advantage their fortunes
by the rehabilitation of Cleveland have
all the honey they require"

In this issue may be found extracts
from the letters of two veterans who
have received the Cleveland tariff
reform circular and puffs of that candi-
date. These men are very positive in
their expressions. and one of them is
rather abrupt, but the language he uses
will cause the old blood to Jingle in the
veins of the great mass of old soldiers
who were never more earnest and posi-
tive Republicans than they now are.

WELL PAID LABOR.

"a great deal of sympathy is being
worse than wasted on the Homestead
strikers said Hugh O'Donnell at the
Laclede. 81 have spent ten years among
the iron workers of America, and l state
it as an irreparable fact that the employ
es of these works earn better wages than
men engaged in any other industry on
earth. IL is no unusual thing for rollers
to earn $50, and even $40, day. Not
only is this true of the Pennsylvania
mills, but it is true of the mills of Ohio
and Alabama. Upon their skill depends
the value of the product, and there are
paid like princes. Still they are never
satisfied. They are chronic kickers. 1
have seen them stop work simply for an
idle Wilma fancied grievence that
would disgrace a schoolboy-and sulk
while their employer suffered. l have
seen them walk out when the furnaces
were full, causing great loss to the mill,
when they well knew that they had no
grievance. Not only do the rollers make
good money-mOney that causes them to
be ehvied by many merchants with large
invested capital-but all other labor,
skilled or common, connected with the
American iron industry is well PAID" -

an ordinary clerk can. Let boys be
taught to respect labor as they should
and there will not be so much trouble
about young men crowding into over
crowded professions. The young man,
who looking upon the huge Corliss en-
CINE at Philadelphia, as it turned the
vast machinery of the centennial exposi-
ton remarked: 81 would rather be the
builder of that machine than the Presi-
dent of the United States" had the
right idea. Let foolish prejudices that
trades are degrading, be banished from
boys and grown peoples minds, and it
will not be necessary to inquire once in
while, Should all boys learn trade?
Under the right education they would
drift into it naturally according to the
law of supply and demand. The world
wants more mechanics, more producers.
1t wants fewer clerks and professional
men, who are the drones of society.
When it begins to be that the producers
are the nobler of the two, there will be
no more difficulty about multiplying this
class, for boys will, at their own instance,
swell the ranks of those whose occupa-
ton is benefit to themselves and the
State.-TelegrGm

LEARNING A TRADE.

The Boston Herald has been collecting
answers to the question, should every
boy learn a trade either practically or
theoretically" The question is timely
one and deserves serious consideration.
Obviously it cannot be answered by a d.
rect yes or no. All boys should not learn
trade because that would more than
fill the demand if they all practiced it..
Yet it cannot be said either that boys
should not learn a trade. Better that
all should than none should
A mere theoretical or practical knowl-
edge of trade would hurt nobody. In
deed it would be q practical benefit to
the individual and to society. Yet the
thing is an impossibility at the present
day. There is no time given for boys to
get good education and then learn a
trade too, unless they mean to make a
livelihood by it. They should get an
education first, at any rate, and then
choose trade or profession as soon as
possible and make speciality of that. 1t
would be unadvisable, though, for them
to pick up a trade that they did not de-
sire to follow, 1t would mean so much
time wasted which should have been en-
ployed in getting down to some chosen
avOcation.
Instead of all boys learning trade all
boys should learn to respect that method
of making a livelihood. Unfortunately
at this date all do not. Indeed, few do.
Give most boys a choice between going
into a store with the Interior prospect of
earning eight dollars week and going
into shop with the prospect of getting
from two to four dollars a day, and
ninety-nine in hundred of them will
choose the store. They see that silly,
unthinking girls prefer a white-pine
clerk to dance with, even if he wears
borrowed dress-suit, than with sturdy
young mechanic whose hands have just
been cleansed of oil, even though he gets
five times as much wages as the clerk,
and did not have to borrow or buy his
suit on the installment plan.
Noticing this state of affairs they
naturally seek the howery path leading
behind the counter and it is not until
too old to learn trade that they begin
to perceive that young misses who liked
to dance with them prefer to marry the
man who can support them better than

What ear-splitting cries we hear daily
