A couple of Boston sculptors, gen.
tleman sculptor and lady sculptor,
have essayed the task of modelling two
figures in clay of the typical American
male and female forms of the present
day. These forms are not to be the actual
American figures as they exist, but the
aggregation Of all the excellent points
discovered by the scientific measure
ment of nearly 10000 college students
of both sexes.
These statues are to be exhibited at
the Worlds fair, and replicas are to be
furnished to colleges and other institu-
tlons of learning.
1t is safe to assume at once that the
figures will not be fairly typical of Am
erican manhood and womanhood. The
mere fact that the measurements have
been taken from college students is
enough to destroy the value OF the typi-
cal character of the figures, except so
far as they may be said to represent
immature American manhood. land wo-
manhood. College students are not
typical Americans. They may become
such after having developed.
Another reason why these statues will
not be typical is that they are to be per-
feet, according to the standard Of per-
fection evolved by the Sargent measure
ments. The typical American is not
physically perfect. 1t is indeed said
that of the sixty-fve measurements
made of each individual few show per-
lection in more than one. How, then,
can an ideally perfect physical figure be
typically American?
There will be a great many typical
Americans at the great Chicago fair,
but the statues made by the Boston
artists will not be among them.

II appears that Sunday has disap-
peared from the Democratic plan Of
politics, and the day has been levelled
to the plane of all other days.
Yesterday the Democratic delegates
to the state convention held a formal
meeting in the form Of caucus to pre-
pare the work of the convention.
This was needless degradation of
the day, and was so ostentatious as to
attract attention and cause remark.
1t is not necessary to maintain the
rule-and-line puritanic idea of Sunday
10 be able to appreciate its difference
from other days, aud to respect the SEN
timent that still survives in New Eng
land regarding it.
While the public sentiment has
greatly changed and shifted, it can
scarcely be said that it justifies the rel
egation Of Sunday to the uses of the
political wire-puller and the ward
heller
1t is apparent that the Democrats
have blundered in revealing their con-
tempt, or their ignorance, of the senti-
ment of the great mass of decent people
respecting the due observance of the
day that has been set apart from secular
uses almost since history began.

LABOIi AND THE LAW.

The action of the Toledo judges with
reference to a boycott against hauling
the cars of a road that had had trouble
with its employees, ordered by the Broth
erhood of Locomotive Engineers. seems
to indicate that labor organizations may
be compelled TO radically change their
policy or wholly lose their influence.
As in this case, it has been the custom
of some Of the powerful labor organiza-
tions 10 bring pressure 10 bear upon
corporations through embarrassing col
lateral industries-a proc ass that is pic
turesquely known as ~ whipping the
devil round the stump"
This custom has caused almost end
less trouble. and has always been the
cause of very large proportion of the
criticism of and opposition TO the labor
unions. IL has, moreover, seldom re-
suited TO the permanent advantage Of
the laborers directly concerned.
The result Of most of the big strikes,
and most of the attempts to force con-
ditions upon corporations through boy
colts and operations like that tried by
the locomotive engineers, have been
simply that the workingmen concerned
were in the end the losers.
Now IL seems evident that a different
course must be adopted. Labor organf-
cations must direct their efforts for the
amelioration of worklngmen through
recognized legal channels. aud must
refrain from pursuing policy of demo-
htion. II serves no good purpose 10
gain temporary advantage by coersive
methods. IL almost always results that
the party coerced labors zealously until
he is able TO turn the tables. and when

THE CAMPAIGN.

The Republicans find themselves on
the threshold Of the state campaign,
ready for the fray, in splendid condi-
ton to try conclusions with the Demo-
Gratis.
The party is perfectly harmonious
and solidly united. 1t goes into the
campaign with record for efficiency
and intelligent progression in the con-
duct of the states affairs that has never
been excelled, and that has not been
equalled in recent years.
There is not single little eason that
can be cited in favor of change of ad-
ministration by the Democrats. All
they can urge is their desire to have o the
offices. Even their cry for constitu-
tional convention has no real force in
the light of the advocacy of plurality
elections by the Republicans.
1t is certain that the people of the
state will look upon the proposition to
change the control of their state affairs
in this common-sense way. There is no
argument for change that has any
weight, except the partisan argument.
The affairs of the state are in excel
lent hands. The people will doubtless
record their opinion, on April 8. that it
is best to let we'll enough alone.

Some southern aud western Democrats

that time comes he allows his desire for
revenge TO govern his action.
The logic of events for several years
has pointed to the obvious conclusion
that organized labor must take some
what different course or the usefulness
of its efforts will steadily deteriorate
until the zero point is reached. There
is plenty of evidence that the more pro-
gressive among the labor leaders realize
this, and are resolved that the change
in that direction shall be accomplished.
There is a field of usefulness for the
labor organizations Incompatible in
richness and extent. When they finally
decide to abandon the unwise destruc-
tive methods they will begin to enter
that field.

On account OF the large number Of
second and third ballots necessitated by
the laws of Rhode Island, which require
an absolute majority of all the voters be-
fore candidate can be elected, it is now
proposed TO amend the constitution so
that a plurality may elect, as in most
other states. That the proposed change
meets with much favor is shown by the
fact that the resolution providing for the
submission passed the senate by the over
whelming vote of 90 to 2.
Yet, alter all, was there not some
strong ground for the Rhode Island plan?
Whenever any one did get elected under
the old system it was perfectly sure that
he was the choice of the majority. Will
the result be any better X it is provided
that less than majority shall rule
Suppose there were three or four candi-
dates in a closely contested election.
Then one-third or one fourth of the vot-
ers Plus one would be able to rule the
rest. Thus the question OF minority
repre- sentation is brought mp, Whether
1t ould be advisable to adopt the latter
plan opinions differ. In fact, everything
shows that we are still in the expert
mental stage of government, even In the
matter of voting.

A queer coincidence occurred in one of
the city churches last Sunday During
the service one Of the ushers notified a
physician in the congregation that call
had been made for him in the vestibu,e.
The doctor bounced out with hat and
overcoat, and was soon on his way to see a
patient.
About 10 minutes later the usher walked
down the aisle until he came opposite a
well-known undertaken There was a
whispered word or two, and the undertaken
hurried out. 1t was not the same case, but
he followed the doctor, and broad smile
fioated out over the congregation. .-[At-
