GUJDayCE 1yD VENTILATION.

That there Is some Fourth of July material left in this disturbed country Is made plain by Inc reply of Senator Davis of Minnesota to request from n branch of the American Railway Union that he would support Senator Kylc's mail-train resolution. Senator Davis snid; have received your telegram l will not support Senator Kyle's rcso- mtion. IL is against your own real wel- fare. IL is also blow at the security, peace and rights of millions of people who never harmed you or your nssoci- ates. My duty to the constitution and the laws forbids me to sustain q resolli- ton to legalize lawlessness. The same duty rests upon yourself and your associates. Tho power to regi- late commerce among the several states is vested by the constitution in congress. Your associates have usurped that power by force at Ham, mond and other places, and have de- stroyed commerce bel ween the states in tlose particular instances. You are rapidly approaching the overt net of levying war against the United States. and you will find the definition of that net in the constitution. I trust that wiser thoughts will regain control. You might as well ask me to vote to dissolve ihis government.
 Good sense, respect for law, and real patriotism shine in this reply. It will guide and inspire others who want to know md 10 do what is right in these troublous times.

DERS NOT YET ELECTED.

This is the Fourth of July, the day set apart for celebrating the emancipa- tlon of this country from tyranny. And yet on this glorious and significant day an effort is being made to overthrow the government of this country and substi- tute Debs for it. Of course the effort will fail and Debs will soon be in jail If he is not more discreet than he has been. And who is Debs, thnt he should set himself mp as the ruler of this land? He is said to have executive ability of high order. He certainly has cheek of very hard and protuber- ant order. He was born in Terre Haute, Indiana, in 1855 and is still under forty years of age. His father is said to be a respected merchant of that city. Young Debs was educated at the public schools, including the high school, which train- ing was supplemented by course at business college. He worked as a fire man on railroad between Terre Haute and Indianapolis between 1871 and 1874, but since then no railroad has had him on its payroll. He joined the flremens brotherhood in 1877 and in 1878 his abil- ity and education secured him the posi- tion of associate editor of the locOmo- tive firemen's magazine. In 1879 Debs was chosen city clerk of Terre Haute on the Democratic ticket and was re-elect- ed on the strength of his excellent administration of the office. In 1880 he became secretary and treasurer of the firemen's brotherhood and strengthened the organization materially. In1SS5 the Democrats chose Debs representative to the Indiana legislature, and after his service there he became editor of the Railway magazine, which he directed until he organized the American Rail- way Union less than year ago.
 Debs has made a big stir with his executive ability,n his cheek and his American Railway Union. But he is flying too high. He will be brought low before long, There has been no elec- tion of him as president of the United States, and he will find that before he can be the head man in this country he must be elected.

The average woman seeing this sort of thing done rushes into the idea that all colors can be put together, it. Gray, pale blue and lilac is anoth- CT of the combinations of three. White, gray in a clear dull shade and brown of a coffee color are managed with good effect. A brown linen gown is made up with white piaue revers and vest and collar of ruby velvet. Greens are not so plentiful as in the last few seasons, but their occasional use is marked by the exercise of ex- cellent judgment, and the garish greens so often seen but a short time ago are now seldom met with. To- days picture is of a dress made of mode colored braid and nile green watered silk, the latter used for the underskirt, the openwork and solid braid being cut after it is sewed into gores, which are joined and left inde- pendent of the silk foundation.

The Empty Dinner Pail

 As I sit here idly dreaming or the happy time that's gona Not dollar in my pocket, And the winter coming on; The thing, that breaks me up the most. And makes mo feel so small, Is the sight of that old dinner pail Hanging on the wall. I've carried that old dinner pail For fifteen years or more, And 1t never saw me out of work Or destitute before, For with shops and factories running And the best of wages paid, A prosperous lot of fellows were The dinner pail brigade. But you see we wasn't satisfied Though it seemed most mighty strange And we said we thought the country Would be better for a change; And we rallied about tho tariff And we blowed about free trade And we voted democratic, Did the dinner pail brigade. Well, a change was what we wanted And we got 1t, too, you bet, For the shops and factories all shut down And left us in the vet; Tho banks suspended payment And lost my little all, And the dinner pail is empty now That's hanging on tue wall. I'm dependent now on charity For the roof above my head, And I've seen my wife and little ono Go hungry to their bed; But I've plenty time for thinking, And sec 1t isn't strange, For voted democratic
 Just to have little change. Yes, we voted democratic, And you see tho change has made A lot of hungry beggHrs ,. Of the dinner pail brigade; The working men are idle, But the wormwood and the gall Is to see tho empty dinner pail Hanging on the wall.

peace, most European states have had to conduct n wnr against subversiye tendencies within their own dominions, in which no decisive engagement has yet taken place. The strategic move ment of the revolution, however, would have forced the various governments to increase their defensive resources, oven if those armaments had not been re- quired by considerations of foreign policy.
 This is m interesting and plausible argument. It doesn't assume that tue people oan govern themselves yet, an l it may be right 90 far as Europe is con- eerncd. Bnt the people of this country are different.

PL1USTRIE.

The people of this country have heartily congratulated themselves on the fact that they don't have to support a big standing army, but the time may come when most of them will wish there was an army big enough to command respect for itself and for the govern ment. The people of Europe are groan- ing under the burdens of militarism,
 but the PeSter Lloyd, one of the leading journals of Austria, takes the opposite side of the case and undertakes to de- fend the maintenance of the armies which are turning Europe into one vast camp. It begins by inquiring what would be the condition of the Europe of to-day without its great armies, and what would be the position of justice, freedom and progress. There is, it says, hatred of things as they are in millions of souls all over the world, and if it were not for militarism that hatred would seize the weapons of destruction and lay the existing order of society in ruins, together with all the gains of thousands of years of progress. Nihilism, social revolution, anarchism and fenianism are but the changing phenomena of one disease of our time-namely, the blind resistance of huge masses to civilization. Without it's enormous armies, Europe would fall a helpless prey to this revolu- tionary impulse. Dynamite would be the dictator of the world. The bombs are silent only so long as they fear the repeating rifle. It is the merest illusion, the writer says, to fan cy that Europe is enjoying state of peace. Certainly, international peace has not been disturbed for fifteen years past, and, notwithstanding the Franco Russian fraternization, it will hardly run much risk in the future. But in those fifteen years of international
