is the only practical remedy in sight for

Isaac Evesham, of Buffalo, lumber

sense great man-not personally, for
he was short and chunky in figure; not
mentally, for he had no more imagina-

though he was the prop and stay of Lit

ported by his contributions, he ignored

PRESS COMMENTS.
A DemocrntIc Stimuient.


From the Atlanta Constitution.
The overwhelming Democratic victory
in Georgia might stimulate the Demo-
Gratis OF Virginia, North Carolina and
Alabama to renew eXertions in behalf of
their parry. The campaign here was
not allowed to run itself. 1t was man
aged by mon whose energy was only
equaled by their energy to reorganize
tho party and to throw life and vigor
into the organization.
When tho campaign began there was
worry impressive movement away from
tho party on the part Of tho farmers.
This had to be overcome, and the argu.
ments necessary to accomplish that do
sirable result had to be presented in g
fair and friendly way. No bitterness
was allowed TO crop out. The fact was
recognized from the first that the clo-
ment among tho farmers which was
showing signs of dissatisfaction was
amenaSlo tocommou sonse arguments,
and the canvas was carried on on this
line.
The Same campaign will win in Ala
bama and in the other States we have
mentioned. 1t is bound to win. Men
who refuse TO rcSDond to tho logic of
COlu ocHSc uafC lOSU lUclr TcdSON,
and we do not think this is true OF any
largo body of Southern farmers. Neither
Kolb nor his wrongs. il he has any, can
cut any figure in the national campaign.
Neither he nor any other citizen OF
Alabama is of any importance whatever
compared to the tremendous issues at
stake in November. The grievances of
Kolb do not hold good against the en-
tire South and any serious detection in
Alabama on his account would be like
tearing down the State capitol because
rat had got in Bill Smith S corncrib
The Democrats OF the South have
seen what hard work will do in Georgia.
Let them duplicate in its vigor and
friendliness the campaign that has just
onded here, and tho result will be all
that patriotic heart could wish for.

A SIGNIFICANT INSTITUTION.

One of the best and most convincing
results of the unselfsh activity of
women that can be found in the whole
wide range of woman's activity is the
work done at Hull House, Chicago.
This is an old residence that, as the
city has grown, has become surrounded
by the denses5 population, the greater
proper ton of whom are foreigners who
have not yet adapted themselves to
American ways-Italians, Germans,
Jews, and all tho medley that dwell in
the most crowded tenements.
In Hull House eome years ago little
band Of devoted women set up their
residence in order to try to improve the
condition of their neighbors, and it has
grown to be one OF the most notable in
stitutions in the Christian world. 1t
nurses babies for poor women while they
have to work; it teaches foreigners the
literature of th"ir own tongue; it keeps
relentless landlords from committing
cruelties to poor tenants; it finds homes
for deserted cuildren; it enters the law
courts in defense of many an oppressed
woman; it has distinguished lecturers
and attentive listeners to then, even on
abstruse subjacts-so that in every prac
ttcal way. from ministratlon 10 the most
rudimentary wants Of the poor to slim
ulating their must ambitious intellec-
tual efforts, this nultifarious work is
carried on.
There are Glasses almos, innumora-
BILE; there are art exhibits that would
do credit to the wealthiest portion of
ments--in fact, there is hardly want,
physical, mental or moral, that Hull
ID ,use docs not manage in some way To
supply.A detailed and exceeding lylnter-
esting account OF tho growth and man
agement of this great institution is pub
lished by Miss ane Adams, one OF the
founders of it, in tho Ocsober number of
the Forum.
Miss Addams claims that this work,
which she calls IAN Effolt Toward
Social Democracy" is not charity work
ind ed, Is not even philanthropic, but
that it is simply the outgrowih of what
ought to be the natural desire Of all
persons to give practical aid To the best
tendencies in the life of their ncighbors,
aud sho asserts that quite as mucn good
is received by those who do this excel
lieut. service a by those who are the re
cipients OF it.
