DEMAGOGUES

There is an urgent call for a definition Of
this term which will mark the distinction
between the Iubhe nan who stands up for
the just rights of the people and one who
plays upon popular preiudices for the profit
De can make out Of it. The organs Of the
Southern Pacific Company assert in season
and cut that legislation intended TO check
that monopoly is demagogueTy. Members
If the legislature who range themselves on
the side Il the people on questions that
nrise between the Southern Pacific Com
paHy and the public are fppanuy referred
70 as demagogues. A Senator who openly
admits his business relations with the
Southern Pac &c affects a fine scoTn when
speaking Of members who speak ana vote
IN the general interests Of the people. The
railroad company has bought the service of
some able men, whose compensation is so
liberal that they can get along without pop
ular sup ort These are the very men who
talk most glibly about demagcgues. They
affect 10 see nothing dish0BoTable il sery-
ing the Southern Pacific While under oath
TO serve the people. but express only con-
tempt for associates whose sense Of honor
viii Nc permit this double service. They
claim for themselves the consideration
which honest service entities every person
to, but decline 10 concede to their co-wOrk-
ers the merit Of honest purpose. All are
arrant demagogues who do not serve their
masters.
1t will not be many years before any
member Of legislative body who draws a
salary from a private person, company or
corporation for the assistance be may
render as member Of such body Will be
placed in public estimation with the legis-
lator who sells his vote. The difference
between them is much like that between
The wholesale and retail dealer. The legis-
later who is also the attorney and salaried
agent of a corporation takes jobs by the
wholesale. while the other pebbles his vote
out according as there may be a demand for
It. The latter has the advantage in this,
that where lie cannot get money for voting
wrong he may vote right, while the salaried
agent never votes his convictions He is
under q general contract to vote as the in-
terests of bis employer require him to vote
Demagpgues are not as a rule safe fegisla-
tors, but 10 this State they have done little
mischief when compared with the Iegisla-
tive Iackeys who have done the bidding
Of corporations. And yet these lackeys
are not Stunned by the average thoroughly
respectable man. Their status as egisla-
tors is known and their crimes condOned.
1t IS no secret that they earn four times as
much money for betraying the public as the
legislators they style "demagogues" do for,
serving it. 1t is from this class of legisa-
tors that we hear the most severe and
scoTnful denunclati0ns Of the class Of public
men who propose to give the people the
laws they want, even when the popular
judgment conflicts with their own.

A HARVARD PRESIDENTS VIEWS

President Elliot Of Harvard University
says: Il believe that every honest and
healthy man, woman or child brought into
the country is gain TO it." The Harvard
president ignores the change Of condition
that may and must result from free adj
mission Of foreign people. even if they come
up to his standard in respect 10 health and
morality. II is Impossible 70 avoid the con-
eluslon that if we admit laborers from
Europe and Asia without restriction, it will
be but a short time before these foreign
laborers will determine the standard of
wages Employers are compelled by the
force Of competition to empty the cheapest
labor at their command The employer
who would like to maintain the American
standard of wages would soon be convinced
that he could not do so and compete with
other employers who hire the cheapest labor
they can find. Now there is very general
opinion that it is better to maintain the
American standard of wages than to de-
velop our resources perhaps more rapidly
by the introduction Of cheap foreign labor.
Fields, forests and mines will keen if
this generation does not work them out.
But if we once lower our rate of wages to
the European or Asialic standard the re-
storatiOn OF 1t will be problem the wise
men Of the colleges will hardly be able to

There is considerable stir at City Hall
just now over police matters. The prin-
scipal topic is the removal of Officer M.
W. Croker and the appointment Of a
Democrat, W. E. Hartman, in his place.
The affair has oecasioned bitter personal
feeling on all sides. Charges had been
made against Officer Crocker, who it was
expected would receive the appointment
of captain of the night watch, and the
matter of the appointment laid on the
table pending an investigation. AS yet
no investigation has been held, but, as
before stated, the Board appointed Har-
riman, retired police officer, captain.

vsstigation. The latter feels that he has
been hardly used, and has demanded a
hearing, which is to come off in the near
future. Rumors of other changes are
flying thick and fast, and squally times
are looked for.

DECIDEDLY INTERESTING.
The Game in Which the Portlands Defeat
g., ed the Brocktons.

Yesterdays game was decidedly in
teresting one. There was plenty of old
fashioned hitting. daring base running,
good and bad plays, fine coaching and
just enough kicking to add spice to the
contest. The Portlands ran bases with
dash that was refreshing contrasting
greatly with their efforts in this line on
Saturday. Rogers set good example in
this respect, scoring from second on a
put out at first. Smith played a great
game going for everything. His running
catches were marvellous. Clare pitched
well but it was thought best to put
Mains in the box to ensure
against defeat. A fine. double play by
Smith cut off Brockton's hopes in the
last inning. twas a wonderful shrewd
piece of playing. The hero of the day
was Cyclone Ryan He hit for single,
two doubles and a home run, besides
putting out seven men at centre. The
Broekton's errors were all costly yet Doe
was hit hard and was not steady, the
the Portlands proving patient walters at
the bat. The sacrificing of the Port
lands was clever. Platt lifted the ball
over the fence with two men on bases
and two out.
The Bfocktons have been greatly
strengthened since they were here before
and are liable to fool them all in game.

MISS wHITNEY's STATUE or LEFT ERICSSON.
And she did, and erected q monument
to them in Back Bay park in 1887 and
has not since repented. Rather she. has
become prouder of it and has sent q copy
Of the statue to the Worlds fair, as
though in insistence upon her right to
be the first place discovered, though she
would not press the claim during cele-
bration in honor of another place and
later date.
Miss Whitney's statue of Left the
Lucky represents him as he might have
looked sailing into Boston harbor, strong,
handsome, with noble face, frank eyes
and long hair sweeping back from a high
forehead. At the base of the pedestal
are the idealized Prov and stern Of a
viking ship, and on the sides are bronze
reliefs, one representing him setting his
foot on the new land and the other show
ing him narrating his adventures at q
yuletide feast.
