Mr.. ANDREW CURRiE AND THE
PROGRESS.

The PROGRESS of last week entered
an earnest protest against the adop-
ton of the majority (Messrs. Toomb's
and Beniemin's) report recommend
ing the purchase of Mr.. Cu.rie's land
for SIS 600 for a cemetery site, and
in the course of its argument incl
dentally mentioned the name OF that
gentleman. Every woman, man and
child who read or heard of it, ard
was possessed with sense above i'm
becili1y, knew that no reflection was
cast upon NJ. G., ie at all, and that
the article Yves directed against
Messr5. Toombs and Benjamin in
their official capacity C. public SER
wants only. But it was valu-
.b'e find" for Mr. Currie,
q d he manu- actured an oppor-
unity to g.atily two of his most in
,tlaule lusts; first, that OF writing;
second, that Of saying unpleasant
things. Right here must be the
place to get off some latin; as he
sprinkles it about in meaningless
confusion, il must be the proper
hing, or he wouldn't do it-Et tn
mnleand um tn nonsensibus quitium.
So he uses the columns of the eau
casian of las Sunday to give play to
his wonderful powers as a writer, in
the which he as usual hits below the
belt. Messrs. Toombs and Benjamin
are to be congratulated that such q
giant has risen to defend their cause.
They should fell specially privileged
that a warrior of such note had left
fields, where both renown and victory
were won in every contest, to take pat
in SO small an affair as ours would
have been, and to join himself to their
standard. The PRoGREss saw the ap-
proach of this knight with abb ,ct fear
and trembling. It was armed,
mounted and fully QUILTED for a !
tilt with the knights of the City |
Council, and had hoped for some
measure of success in the encounter,
but when it saw the Black Slugsard
bearing the banner of its adverse lies,
it retreated from the field, van
pushed, without waiting for its de-
nolishment. But in our retreat we
failed not to cry out shat is too much

Instincts demanded an absolute 81

ishment of the ballot box at Jewella,
brought on contest in which we, as
chairman of the executive committee,
might have been a very important
witness. A day or two before the
S ate convention was to meet at
Baton Rouge, the anty-lottery State
committee met at New Orleans, and
Mr.. Cu,ries, doubtless thinking that
our testimony before this committee
might be very essestial in preparing
our side for the coming fight on the
Caddo delegation, offered to pay one
half of our expenses if we would go
with him, asking, with that smile OF
his which means much or nothing:
as he chooses, if we didn't think that
it would be beneficial to our health.
This, because this writer had been
si,k for about week previous. As
We had neither the wealth nor the
wonderful resources of MIR. Cur-ie,
and having had our business prac-
tically closed for the period of our
sickness (IHE PROGRESS was not then
in existence), we felt unable at that
time, to spend money for a mere
pleasure trip; and being neither
member of the State committee nor
delegate to the convention, there
beng nothing obligatory Ga us to go,
we accepted NJ. Currie's PROPOSE
ton, believing it was offered from
patriotic motives (assuredly he had
no particular friendship for this
writer), to frrther the interest of the
auti-lotter cause. As per-
sonal matter we would not have lis
tened to such a proposition and no
one knows it better than Mr.. Currie
himself. But we will now tell some
thing about that trip, for now most
certainly the bars of delicacy have
been thrown down by Mr.. Cutie.
When we left Shreveport, MIR. CIV
RE bought two five hundred mile
ticket books, one he retained, one he
gave to us. Our destination then was
New Orleans, 32S miles distant. We
stopped at the Hotel Louisiana for
one day, and he paid our bills. We
left the next day for Baton Rouge,
we paying the fare fer both. At the
latter place we boarded two days at
the Mayer Horse and lodged at a
private residence four or five days
aud nights. He paid the former bill,
we the latter for both. Since our re-
turn, suspecting the gentleman
quite strongly, The PRoGEEss printed
his name on the election tickets for
every ward in this p:r;sh except the
Fourth, between 5000 and 10000,
for which we have never received a
cent, and that added TO one or two
notorial acts passed by us, the last of
which we paid for the recording,
without charge, we think, or Gid
think, nearly balanced our charitable
deeds one for another.
Regarding his work for the anti
lottery cause, we think all will say he
worked earnestly and we'll. We
likewise believe all know that Mess J.
Toombs and Benjamin were on op-
posite sides, but "Marster Andy" is
sly, devilish sly, and there may be
some truth, much truth in the whis-
Der that his enemies of last Fall end
Winter ore grooming him for Con-
yres. We are not unaware of the

The bes, method of managing the great
Columbian Worlds Fair has furnished a
perennial theme for discussion BY churches,
societies, railroads, hotel keepers and news
papers for the past wear, and doubtless
many good suggestions have been given the
directors of the fair upon this subject by
each and all OF the above named personages.
And still another suggestion comes from the
editor Of the Electrical Engineer, who OBJ
jects to the rue decided upon by the man
ayers tina, the fair must be closed at :
O'Clock T NJ. each day. This practical electri-
cal journal says that the display in the electri-
cal department will represent millions of dol;
lars in value. aid the largest part of this
money win be spent on apparatus for light
and power. and IL the above rule goes into
effect. this machinery will be idle just Al,
the moment when it can best illustrate its
benefits AS an addition to modern means of
convenience, comfort, economy aud beauty.
If this rule is to be enforced electrical
manufacturers win have little inducement
to exhibit. and the hig fair will close its
sates al sAut down Just when the electrical

Sir Richard Owen.

Sir Richard Owen, the most eminent
anatomist and paleontologist of modern time.

the age of eighty eight years. He studied
medicine and entered the [ University of Ed
inburgh in 1924 In 1925 he became pu-
Dill of John Abernethy at st. Bartholomew :
Hospital. London. Through Abernethy s
influence he was appointed assistant cura-
tor of the Hunterian Museum of the Col
lege of Surgeons. His first published work
was a catalogue of this collection, which
was followed by the memoir on the pearly
nautilus in 1882.
Sir Richard married daughter of Mr..
Gifts whom he succeeded as curator of the
museum. In 1886 he was appointed f. X.
:. and the same wear was made llunterian
Professor of Anatomy and Physiology in
the College of Surgeons, which he held I'M
Ill 1855. In 1899 he received the degree of
LII. ID. from Cambridge, and in the follow
ing wear he founded the Microscopic Society
of London.
Prof owen delivered several courses OF
lectures on anatomy while holding his pro-
fessorship. which were published, and he
also contributed Number of treatises or
monographs on physiology to the ''Fransac-
lions of the Geological Society" and the
"Cyclopadia of Anatomy and Physiology
Prof. Owen rendered important services
to paleontology and exhibited remarkable
skill in the anatomy and reconstruction of
such animals now extinct as the cheiroth-
erium. the glyp,odon, the mylodon, and
the plesiosaurus He discovered a gigantic
fossil bird. the dinornis. He was one of
eight foreign associates of the French In

species, but opposed the Darwinisn theory
of natural selection. for which he substituted
the hypothesis of Derivation Humboldt

II the farmers and working men of the
I nited States voted for Mr.. Cleveland un-
der the idea that cheaper goods with free
trade would more than compensate them
for lower wages and prices for their
products they made a great mistake. In
1850 the average wages, including men.
women aud youth, were $3.50 yearly in
1850 they rose 20 per cent. TO s;,I6. by the
United States census. Edward Atkinson,
free trader. wrote the bu-
reau of statistics at Washington, in
1889, that mechanics wages had risen from
sl6s in 1860 to s720 in lss6 land that mean
while. cheaper goods had increased the pur
chasing power of wages from 10 to 100 per
cent. Wages are now a shade higher. and
farm products also, and goods shade
cheaper and the purchasing power of wages
Is shade higher. Mark that this increase of
the purchasing power of wages came under
protection. No such increase ever came, here
or in England under free trade. Col. Car
roll ID. Wright. chief Of the National Blu
reau of Labor Statistics, whose statements
are held accurate. says that the cost Of iv-
ing in this country is seventeen per cent.
higher than in England,-but oN wages
are 20 to SO per cent higher. and, Of
course. our wage esrners can buy more,
live better and save more than the En-
elish
