OBJECT LESSONS AT ALBANY.

a The changes made in the State offices
at Albany yesterday called vividly to
mind the folly of the Democratic ma
chine leaders who last year deiied public
sentiment and treated the wishes of their
own party as well as of the people
generally with contempt. 1t has been
thirteen years since Republican state
official of any kind TOOK an elective
office at the capital until yesterday.when
the entire State administration, except
the offices of Governor and Lieutenant
Governor. was handed over by Demo-
Gratis to Republicans. Republicans
stepped into the offices of Secretary OF
State. Comptroller, Treasurer. Attorney
General and State Engineer and Survey
or, from which their party had been
banished Cor over thirteen years. At the
same time Boss Platt had pushed Boss
Croker from his throne in the new Capt
tol, and to-day the Speakership, the
Clerkships and the whole fat pickinSs
of the Senate and Assembly, together
with the control of legislation, Will be
passed over to the fortunate party.
These object lessons Of the political
revolution seen al Albany also remind
us of the great change wrought by the
same follies and through the same
influences In our sister city of Brook
lyn, where the Republican leaders are
returning to power and some of the
Democratic leaders are enjoying pros
pect of retiring to prison.
The people care very little who may
hold the offices so long as they have good
and honest government and wise and
lust laws. But what was the meaning
of their verdict last Fall Was 1t to
change a Democratic machine for Re
publican machine !? Was 1t to substitute
q Republican dictator over the Legisla-
ture for Democratic dictator Did
they intend that the orders 10 the law
makers should be issued from an eX'
press office instead of from Tammany
Hall
That verdict gave the Republicans, ac'
cidentally - It were, certain power
Did 1t mean that they were to increase
that power by unseating Democrats
duly elected to the Legislature until they
could run riot with legislation? or did
II mean v desire to put n stop to arbi'
trary boss-ship such as Mr. Platt Is now
exercising. to smash all such machines
as the astonished Republican leaders are
now attempting to rebuild and to suhsti
tute honest. independent administration
for corrupt political rule?

brighten life for some Of us, and his plans
for a terrestrial paradise seem to be

We are afraid that employers will not
take the same kindly view OF this short
hour system that Mr. Osborne takes.
We sort OF think that II the toilers time
is cut down large and juicy knife Will
be applied TO the toiler's wages. Then the
man who works only two hours day
will require the other twenty-five hours
for devising means OF sustaining himself
and family upon the money he earns.
The trouble about the short-hour
scheme Is that II will leave the working
man as much time for thinking as Mr..
Osborne seems to have. And the man
who thinks without having money to
back him up in the business. as we sup
pose Mr.. Osborne has, is lost. Some
body has told us that there is an organl-
zation called the Sons of Rest who have
offered 10000 for the arrest OF the man
who first discovered work. III Mr.. os-
borne could find this fellow and give
the reward to the poor he would he

by simply abating trouble that might

The Art of Eating.

1.-THE average American citizen is woe
fully deficient in knowledge of what he
can get to eat" said a man to st.
Paul World reporter. He falls down
when 1t comes to ordering dinner, The
great majority Of people in this country
are brough. up frugally at home, and
do not know anything but the common
est dishes. The consequence Is that
when a man goes into a restaurant for
dinner or tc a hotel he gazes helplessly
at the bill of fare, and sees many things
of which he does not know the COM
pcnent parts He dare not order any
thing that he is not sure of for fear OF
ridicule, and he falls back on roast
beef and mashed potatoes. The fact
is, he doesn't know anything but roast
beef. Now. sir. my children are going
to know what's what when 1t comes to
eating. No roast beef domination!

The Worst Paid Labor.

In the Leeds (EnglanD clothing trade
a woman averages five shillings week.
The hours are from A. NJ. until $50
p NJ, and then it is sometimes neces-
sary to take work home and sew until
midnight. Superior workers earn in this
way only two shillings and sometimes
less Report shows the conditions of
women's work in many of the factories
worse than the wages. There are extor-
tionate fines for trifing faults and an all
most inhuman disregard of health
evinced in the rules. One philanthropio
woman suggests trades unionism as q
panacea for these evils, and cites a case
where men and women weavers are
united in a strong union and earn twen-
ty-five per cent. more wages than their
less well-organized neighbors.

Susan II. Anthony. silks and Lace.

If Susan B. Anthony has a weakness
II is black silk, with point lace. The
memory of this generation runs not as
far back as the time when this famous
lady took to wearing these costly, ele-
CANT textures. Although very busy
woman. she Is quiet and restful. Her
clothes never wear out and as
she scorns to follow the fashion, her
dresses and ruffles and lace capes and
scarfs last forever. None of her gowns
is trimmed, the expense for that item
being put in the material. AS a result,
some of the straight, round skirts are
made of satin and silk thick enough
and stifr enough to stand alone. She
wears nothing but blGck. When she
wishes to change the character of her
toilet she changes the lace at her
wrists and throat and the little shawl
hat drapes her shoulders. Miss Anthony
reads no newspapers but the marked
copies sent her by friends, she alleges
that newspaper reading Is a great waste
OF time. and a great detriment to the
mind, making a sieve of the memory
and perverting the literary taste. She
depends on gossip for the news and upon
her friends for the advancement of
thought. She u In the eyentide OF life.
