A Poor Man and His Dog.

81 was just watching a negro that
passed by here few minutes ago with
dog tied to a string" said Christian
Banks to reporter at the Lindell. "If
there is anything that is really humor-
Gus, it is to see a negro affectionately
leading a dog that hasn't any affection
for him at all, and doesn't want to have,
either. The garb was, as usual, indica-
tive of the fact that the negro had little
else to do except to take care of the dog.
His hands were almost hidden by the
length of his coat sleeves, and the coat
itself hung in rich, heavy folds over the
shoulders and back in manner more
comfortable than graceful. The pants
looked like segmented cloth rings, piled
one on top of the other from the ground
up. They must have been warm.
"And there was that poor unpedigreed
purp sloucEing along after in an hum
BILE, respectful way that was, however,
only measured by the length of the
string and the strength and toughness of
it. Occasional jerks on the cord that
pulled the dogs neck skin nearly over
its head, and come along, now; doan'
you go foolin wifi me, indicated to the
obedient animal that it was expedient to
move along in this world. l Just Won
der now what a poor negro wants with
a lean, lank dog. It's the old proverb
over and over again, Misery loves COM
pany. ."-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

for our entire population. Schemes to adj
vance the prices of the necessities of life
will have become so discouraged by public
opinion as to be no longer practicable.
Law will be simplified. Lawyers will
have diminished, and their fees will have
been vastly curtailed. The principles of
medicine will be more generally and intel
ligently understood. There will be much
more dependence on nature than on drugs
or physicians, who will have decreased.
Theology, as such, will be little taught
and will have almost no influence. Author
ity will have no weight, and faith, as re-
spects dogma, will be without esteem. The
doctrine, then, will be deed, not creed.
The churches, outside of the Roman Catho-
lie, will coalesce-will be as one. They will
preach morality only and inculcate charity.
American literature will stand at the
head of English literature. The drama will
be its best and most accepted form.
The social and political status Of women
will be on par with that of men. They
will enjoy the elective franchise.
The servant problem will have adjusted
itself to the needs of the community, and
will have ceased to be an injustice and tor
ment to householders.
The race will be handsomer, healthier
and more conteIted- through increased ed
ucation, knowledge of science and human
sympathy.
JUNIUS HENRI BROWNE.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-04-27

PIE of the Holy Ghost" The race will be
mentally and physically healthier, happier
and handsomer because the mothers of the
race, no longer dependent upon man, will
be freed from his bestiality, while mans
animality will decrease in proportion to the
increase of mentality. Woman shall have
the sole right to say when she shall wear
the crown of motherhood, and our iails and
almshouses, streets and alleys shall no
longer swarm with the spawn of degraded
men.
improvements inventions and startling
discoveries will so crowd and supersede one
another that our limited human ken can
not today grasp them all. We will bear
down the barriers between the seen and the
unseen and hold converse with the disem-
bodied. We will travel over land and water
and through the air by means of electricity,
and hold communication with the in
habitants of other planets, and Sunday ex-
cursions to the mountains of the moon will
not excite comment. The center of popu-
lation has moved westward 500 miles in the
past century, and, judging the future by
the past, the greatest city will be located
on our boundless western prairies, where
the almond eyed Mongolian from the orient
will meet in the tide of humanity pouring
westward the Aryan brother from whom
he separated on the plains of Asia 6,000
years ago.
Where Chicago now lifts her proud spires
and many storied buildings great lake or
inland sea will surge its restless waters,
and the dwellers on it's banks will tell with
bated breath of the cataclysm that en-
quilted the doomed city and rolled the
waters upon its sin and pride.
The American now living who will be
the most honored in 1893 will be that man
who is today endeavoring to exempify in
his life and teachings the spirit and doc
trine of Jesus Christ, who is lifting from
the rubbish of the temple the book of
books, and leaving nothing undone to bring
about that time of which Isaiah sung and
the prophets have so long foretold. I'm
honored by wealth or station, though not
unknown, he lives today for his fellow men,
beloved by all who meet him. The ripest
years of his white manhood he has been
writing justice on the nations page, and
this shall be his sure reward, for with
what measure you mete unto others, it
shall be meted unto you"
For ever the truth comes uppermost,
As round and round we run;
And ever the right shall triumph,
And ever shall justice be done.
Yours for the kingdom coming,
MARY E. LEASE.

Cities of the Next Century.

tFrom Our New York Correspondent
Colonel Albert d. Shaw, who, when
United States consul to Manchester, gained
a wide repute, speaking of the development
of cities in the next century, said:
One of the greatest cities in the United
States will be found to occupy the area be
tween Buffalo and Niagara falls. l think
that early in the century there will be a
city of 100000 inhabitants there. 1t will
be one of the greatest manufacturing cities
in the world. 1t will include practically the
city of Buffalo as well as the towns upon
the borders of the Niagara river.
This great city is to be developed through
the capturing of the power of Niagara falls
which even today is practically consum-
mated, and which from the time of the dis
covery of this country has gone to waste.
This water power is to be mainly utilized
in the development of electricity, and both
the Canadian ard the American falls are
to be made to serve this purpose
A power will be developed there suffi-
cient not only to run all the engines neces-
sary to turn the wheels in as many factories
as can be located in this area, but also suf-
ficient to furnish the city of Buffalo with
light and with electricity for domestic uses,
and, / am inclined to think, may even pro-
'iNaN PSNNi ttiih iiSSllS IOI ClticS its lNT away
as New York and Philadelphia on the east
and Cleveland and Cincinnati and Toledo
on the west. The capacity is practically
limitless.
Even with the great plants now estab-
lished on the American side and with those
contemplated on the Canadian side only a
comparatively small portion of this enor-
nous power is utilized. 1t has the advan-
tage of being not only cheap, but permanent.
No drought will ever affect the Niagara
falls, and the cost of furnishing power will
not be dependent upon the operations of
capitalists who control the coal fields.
Already there are indications of the
growth of this city. Manufacturers from
all parts of the United States are securing
rights there, and even before the close of
this century we shall see a considerable
city established there. Early in the next
century look to see a continuous manu-
featuring city extending from the Niagara
river to what are now the outskirts of the
city of Buffalo.
Nature has done everything to favor this
locality, and at last science and capital are
taking advantage of these natural tempta-
tions. My own opinion is that during the
next century this become the greatest
manufacturing center in the world, and
men now in the prime of life will see
enough, l think, to justify me in this pre-
diction and before many years have passed.

l am and have always been n great be-
lever in America and everything American.
The form of government is ideal, and will
no doubt meet the requirements of it's citi-
zens for generations if not for ages to come.
The social and political condition of the
country in 1898 will be, in my opinion, a
marked improvement on what it is now.
1t will tend more and more to humanity,
reason, freedom and independence of the
individual. Socialism, which is in the air,
will steadily grow here in modified and
rationalized form. There will be more
equality in education, position and fortune
The republic will be more than ever
democratized The government will be
simpler. The railroads and telegraphs
will in all probability be owned by the
state and managed xcellently-better than
they have been at any previous time.
Legislation on the subject of temperance
will be more enlightened. There will be no
attempt TO enforce total abstinence, but
there will be less drinking and far fewer
rumshops. Those that are permitted will
be obliged to pay very high license and will
be thoroughly regulated by law.
Criminals will be less severely punished
and their number will have materially
diminished. General education will have
greatly lessened crime.
The divorce laws will be the same in all
the states. Divorce will be freer generally
than at present, but allowed for only a few
moral causes-among them nonsupport,
dlsloyalty, crime, intemperance and tenn
peramental incompatibility.
Wealth will be more widely and equally
distributed, and great corporations and busi-
ness interests will be conducted harmoni-
ously-on the principle of the EMPLOYEES
and workers sharing in the profits. The
conflict between labor and capital will be
largely settled in this way, aided by CO.
operation. AS a necessary result the la
boring classes will be much less dependent.
Food will be provided in the next CEN
tury alta low cost and without difficulty

The TRIBUNE ends today its series
OF articles upon America in 1898. >
The twelve installments, of three
columns each, have been eagerly read
and commented upon, Judging from
the many expressions of approval that
have reached this office. The views
and prophecies of the most promi-
nent people in this country upon this
very entertaining subject were bound
to prove of interest to our readers,
and it is a noteworthy fact that all the
writers We're nearly positive that the
republic will be greater and stronger
IN 1893 than in 1898. A number of
those who expressed themselves paid
special attention to the part relating
to capital and labor and kindred
questions, and did not fail to predict
that these troublesome matters must
be permanently settled before Amer
lea can enter upon that era of pros
per1ty which is in store for it. How
ever, even those who harbor the most
pessimistic opinions have acknowl-
edged that there is glorious future
before the country.

Arbor Day.

1t is with pleasure that we give place
to the following eloquent paragraph from
tho proclamation Of the governor Of
Pennsylvania on Arbor day:
Let tho people lay aside for n season the
habitual activity of the day and devote suf-
hcient time thereof TO plant a forest, fruit or
ornamental tree along the public highways and
streams, in private and public parks, about the
public schoOihouses and on the college grounds
III gardens and on tho farms, thus promoting
the pleasure, profit and prosperity of the people
of the state, providing protection against floods
and storms, securing health and comfort, in
creasing that which is beautiful and pleasing
to the eye, comforting to physical life and ele-
waiting the mind and heart, and by associations
and meetings excite public interest and give en-
couragement to this most commendable work.
In the beginning of his proclamation
Governor Pattison alludes to the favor
able changes that have already taken
place in regard to this question since Ar
Dor day was instituted as a regular oc-
casion for observance in Pennsylvania.
The main change has been everywhere
in the direction of improved public opin-
ion. 1t began first in the public schools
in all the states. This was the best pos
sible beginning, The pupils had holi-
day in which to plant trees in school
grounds and parks. The next step was
to plant trees along public highways
The planting was always accompanied
with pleasant ceremonial observances
speeches, recitations and music.
From this the next move was to set
before the people the frightful injury
done their farms by stripping off the
timber, especially near the headwaters
of streams. They were set to thinking
of the damage that had already been
done and of ways in which further dam
age might be checked. Then they began
to set out trees on their private grounds,
both fruit and forest trees. Millions of
trees have thus been planted by the
children of those who cut trees down.
A valuable store of literature has ac-.
cumulated on arboriculture. There are
now books in plenty that show what
trees are best adapted to given soils, also
what trees will be most profitable in the
commercial way, both for nuts and wood
The American eye for artistic beauty
has been immeasurably helped too
Many farmer who formerly let weeds
and briers run wild and unsightly along
his roadside has cut them all away and
planted rows of beautiful trees. Hedges
of Towering shrubs, clumps of trees
about springs and water sources, already
attest to our awakened interest in arbor-
iculture.

Valley Forge is now likely to be-
come, as it ought to become, the
property of the people of Pennsylva.
MIA, held in trust for the people Of the
United States as heritage Of free a
government, says an exchange. The
bill providing for its purchase has
been favorably reported in the legis-
lature; the project has been generally
approved by the press of the state
and By newspapers in other states;
and it so happenes that there is a full
treasury. With Valley Forge set
aside and beautifed, Pennsylvania
would have set apart within her bor-
ders two famous places-one marking
the high-tide of unsuccessful rebellion
at Gettysburg; and the other the
climacteric of patriotic suffering and
and endeavor out of which rebellion
blossomed into successful revolution
and the subsequent establishment of
the most renowned republic the
world has ever seen.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1893-04-27

The prison parole system will be tried
in California, the governor having APP
proved the bill to that effect. Under
this system prisoners who have served a
part of their term and have good con-
duct during that time to their credit
may be released on parole during the rest
of their term. If during this time of
probation they lead honorable and indus
trious lives, then at the end Of the term
the sentence is Cancelled. They are
watched closely during the probation
and rearrested and made to serve out the
full remaining term if caught in any mis-
demeanor. The advocates of this plan
believe it will encourage ex-convicts to
become good citizens. In California
1000 prisoners will be let out on parole
under the new law.

FREELAND, PA, APRIL 81, 1898.

The little state of Delaware has set
an example that could with profit be
followed by some of its neighbors,
Pennsylvania for instance. Its legis-
lature was asked to appropriate
$4,000 for the support of the national
guard, and the bill passed the lower
house. The senate, however, did not
give it single vote, consequently the
measure failed. Now the guard, which
consists of one regiment, intends
to disband, and the people of Della
ware don't care fig how soon it does.
They can very well get along without
toy soldiers, even though the gilt-laced
aristocratic snobs who pose as officers
predict all sorts of dire things to hap,
pen. 1t is pity that more legisla.
lures are not built on the Delaware
plan.
