Jump on Tain Robbers.

II is within the recollection Of the
oldest inhabitant1 when the seas
were infested with pirates The civ
iized world combined against
them, and now ships sail the seas
without fear Of such men as were
Capt Kidd and Black Beard But land
pirates have become numerous within re
cent years. They are known as train rob
beTs. They are becoming so numerous
and bold that local authorities cannot
deal successfully with them. Although
many Of them are caught, the number Of
the robberies is increasing. There are
more Of such robberies this year than
there were last. and there were more last
year than the year before.
What is TO be done to put stop 10 these
robberies' That is a question that IS
just now receiving a good deal Of atten-
ton. II is believed that the whole power
Of the federal government should be used
TO hunt down the robbers, and that those
Of them who are caught should be
punished 50 severely as 10 strike
terror to the hearts Of all who
even think of taking part in robbing
trains In Arizona train-robbing is made
a capital ofense. The punishment is not
too severe. because train robbers have
murder in their hearts. They do not hes
itate to take life to accomplish their pur-
pose. They use dynamite 10 blow UP ex-
press cars, regardless of whether thev en-
danger human life or not. and they shoot
down those who oppose them.
In recent talk about train-robbiug,
Detective W. A Pinkerton says: I'm
less some measures are taken to prevent
the increase of train robberies, would
not be surprised to see an express train
held up within ten miles Of New York or
Philadelphia at a not very remote date.
In Detective PinkertOn's opinion there
should be a national law covering the
crime of train robbing, not only because
state authorities cease to pursue the rob
bers beyond state lines, but also because
states are not provided with the means
for making long hunt for them. At the
extra session Of congress Representative
Caldwell, of Ohio, introduced a bill on
the subject of train robbIng. 1t provides
a penalty Of twenty years Imprisonment
for the crime. The measure seems to be
very generally approved, and there does
not now appear to be any good reason why
it should not become law. The govern
ment regulates interstate railroads, aud
why should it not undertake to protect
passengers travelling upon such roads!
Train robbing is a troublesome crime TO
deal with, but the government can make
it so difficult for train robbers to escape
that few will take the risk of attacking
trains. The crime can be suppressed as
effectually as was piracy.

Bishop Nelson on the Race Problem.

81 uOp NeAbOu Oh Tue race problem.
Recently Bishop Nelson gave a vigor-
GUS talk before the missionary society of
the General Theological Society on the
race problem. He secuted the idea that
the problem can be solved by colonial
ton. He said that the blacks don't want
to emigrate, that the southern farmers
don't want them to emigrate and he
might have said they are not going to
emigrate. They are in the south to stay.
The idea of colonizing them in Africa is
preposterous.. 1t would take a big feet Of
ships and vast amount Of money to
transport to Africa even the natural in
crease of the black population.
The bishop thinks the south needs the
blacks to do its labor and the question
is, how can they he prepared for getting
along with the whites and for adjusting
themselves to the new conditions which
are constantly arising. In other words,
how is the race problem to be solved f!
The bishop says, by education. He thinks
that by education they can
be prepared for the duties
that devolvc upon them as citizens.
and that as they rise to a higher moral
and intellectual plane the friction be
tween the two races will be less apparent.
He is inclined 10 think that the public
schools cannot do for them all that should
be done, and he therefore advocates
parochial schools. His own church. the
Episcopal, favors such schools for black
children, and if other churches would
adopt a similar policy the work of solving
the race problem would go forward much
faster.
No doubt all who have solutions for
the race problem are sincere. After all.
however, no one solution will be adopted
The race problem will be solved so gradu-
ally that it will be impossible to say how
it was solved. The solution will occupy
many years, and the bishops solution aud
other solutions suggested will doubtless
be factors in it,

At a meeting of the National Grange Of
Patrons of Husbandry at Syracuse
the other day, a resolution was
adopted calling upon the President
to appoint at once secretary
of agriculture in accord with the farming
interests of the United States" This
was called forth by some very sensible
remarks of Secretary Morton's recently,
in which he observed that if the farmers
would give moro attention to the diversi-
fcation of crops and to stock rails
ing and less to political fads and fancies,
they would be proited thereby. This
paragraph will serve notice upon num-
Der Of its readers that the grangers as an
organization are still in the land of the
living. The society passed out of the
public mind years ago, for the reason that
it had too little of agriculture and too
much of everything else in il.

The Maybrick case has made its Gus

about forgetting that there ever had been
such case. Now it is alleged that arsenic
has been discovered in glycerine made
by certain German chemist, and that
the chemist had sold some of the glyce
rine to dealers in England previous to Mr..
MaybricE's death. The theory of Mrs.

Robert Louis Stevenson, the student
of metaphysics, the creator of occult
characters with strange and wonderful
diseases, and himself sometimes sufferer
from puzzling, interesting malady, went
TO Samoa TO seek health. Instead of find
ing it he has been the victim successfully
of chills, of measles and of whooping
cough. Should his stay be protractcd he
will probably have some experience with
the hives, hay fever, the itch and other
plebeian ailments that he might have
caught at home. However, Stevenson
has gathered some ideas for stories from
watching the naked natives, hence the
whooping cough has not been without its

The reelection of both Powderly and

means that the fight between the two will
be kept up until the next general assem-

and as each is Jealous of the other it
would be a matter Of no very great sur

rival union.
