To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: The Sun
shines for all. indubitably. constantly. and
luminously. Why. then. should 1t not turn its
rays upon and forever dry up and evaporate
the absurd popular deusion which leads some
people to speak and write about the Anglo
Saxon racer" On Wednesday The Sun. in
commenting upon a reference by the Rev. Mr..
Macarthur to the Anglo-Saxon race" used
language which night be regarded as recoR-
milton OF the existence OF such a race. This is
much to be deplored for it lends the sanction
OF your authority to an chronological absurdity.
l see In Hdype,'s Of this month an adver-
tinemert OF an "Anglo-SaNon Grammar" by
some misguided lunatic OF professor in one
OF our colleges. What does this mean? What
does the man mean by the Anglo-Saxon Ian
guage? What do you mean By the Anglo
Saxon racer To be sure have often heard Of
the Anglo-SaXon race. have also often heard
OF the man in the moon. And l must say that
after investigation I find there is moro evil
dence to sustain the theory Of the man in the
moon than to sustain the existence now or at
any time OF an AnGlo-Sa1on race. II remem-
Der correctly. my friend Freeman. in his " His
tory Of the Norman Conquest" took some pains
to show that persons who talk about an Anglo
Saxon race should be carefully examined rs to
their heads. J. NJ. n.

the laborious and self-saoriflcing priests
who are watching over the spiritual inter-
ests OF the immigrants OF that faith. seek
ing to make 1t real faith controlling con-
duct and not merely nominal BELIEF re-
ceived by Inheritance.
This obligation involves labors 30 vast
that the Roman Catholic Church In this
country may be said to be combining itself
to the task OF keeping Its own rather than
pushing forward proselytism. The accee-
sions to It's ranks from Professionalism seem
to come to 1t usually without active effort
on its part to obtain them. Its policy seems
to be to refrain from celebrating such
conouests. As tho Holy Cross Mdgdsine,
tho organ OF extreme Episcopalian ritual
ism. says: Roman Catholic priests con-
fine themselves almost exclusively to their
own flocks, and do not, try nearly as hard
as our clergy do to gain n hearing in the
community at large. With the exception
of certain recent perverts from our own
ranks. and few members OF the Jesuit
order, tho priests and members OF the Ro-
man communion do not seem TO be very
active in trying to gain adherents from So
ciety about them" They are taxed to
their utmost in looking after their own
household. so rapidly increasing by immi-
grafton.
The general recognition Of this fact is one
Of the reasons Of the decline Of Protestant
jealousy and suspicion Of Roman Catholic
motives and purposes. The Church OF
Rome 1t is now beginning to be understood.
Is performing a necessary and an altogether
praiseworthy service for American society.
1t Is a conservative. wholesome. and an
elevating force OF inestimable value.

that upon farms large enough to war
rant the purchase OF full lines Of i'm
proved machinery. the cost OF production
has thereby been lessened ten per cent. I;
but such farms constituting less than
five per cent OF tho whole area under
cultivation. the aggregate saving from
such economies has been slight. and has
probably been fully Offset by tho progress
sively increasing use Of commercial fertillz-
ers. which has been found necessary in all
the region east OF the Mississippi; not to
increase the fertility Of the land, but sim
ply to prevent further deterioration.
While the cost of production cannot have
been lessened as much as five per cent since
1875. prices for the staple products Of the
farm averaged SO per cent. greater during
the five years ending with 1875 than now.
This is especially true as respects the five
staples: corn. wheat. oats, hay. and cotton.
which employ 1875 900 900 out Of the 2O6, ,oOo, 900

The following table shows. in flve-year
