From the New York Sun.

Vose of this town dispatched by express a
day or two ago a famous Thanksgiving
turkey to the President and with 1t this
letter:

Hon. Grover Cleveland:
Dear Sir: 1 voted the republican ticket

The Presidents turkey dressed twenty
five pounds. 1t was butchered according

New England. With q sharp knife Mr.
Vose pricked a small slit in the throat of
the bird and then hung 1t aloft by its heels.

man plucks 1t dry, taking off its feathers
very quickly and nimbly; hence most Yam
kee fowls are sent to market looking as
clean as smelts, with no abrasions of the
tender cuticle. no disfiguring marks what
ever.
The fact that the Presidents turkey has
wild strain is due to an original idea and
an innovation on the part CT Mr.. Vose.
"A few years ago." said he. 1T seemed
to me that the Rhode Island stock was
deteriorating, and in experimenting I
found that the Introduction Of wild tur-
keys from the west benefited the native
stock immensely. while the effect of the
salt air Of the seacoast on the imported
birds was almost equally wonderful. Last
year / distributed thirteen western toms
among the farmers OF this county, and this
year more than half as many more. The
result is a turkey Of excellent strain, so
that a Providence man. who had one last
season, ordered another this fall, saying,

proposed qualification Of citizenship.
The state, in self-defense against re-
Gently increasing ignorance and crime,
must advance along this line. TO be
sure, it is inconsistent that the smart
est women should be declared ineligible
when the most stupid men, with no
comprehension whatever of the mean
ing of the suffrage that they enjoy, are
permitted to assume the rank Of sover-
eigns merely by memorizing the con-
stitution and acquiring the manual
dexterity essential to signature, But
great reforms move slowly, and so far
from feeling discouraged Mt their own
rebuff, the educated womanhoOd of the
land should feel grateful that lordly
man has at last made up his mind to
move one step upward from the Cim-
merriam darkness of regal illiteracy, in
which he has obstinately wallowed
politically since the birth of the repub-
lie.
1t is the first step that is always
hardest to dare. The New York con-
sdtution members have dared this in
novation in asserting to an educa-
tional test. We should not giveup the
hope that their reluctant feet, gaining
strength and courage from this uneX-
pected exercise, will yet sustain them
in the journey toward equal justice to
all citizens, regardless of sex.

The First Stem.

The suffrage committee of the New
YORK state constitutional convention
has made one indefensible mistake in
refusing to submit the question Of
woman suffrage to popular vote; but
1t almost atones for this offense by
recommending the following amend
ment to the Empire states funda-
mental law; "After January /, 1905,
no person shall have the right to vote
or be eligible to Office under the con-
stitution of this state who shall not be
able to read the constitution in the Eng
lish language, and write his name; pro-
vided, however, that the provisions of
this section shall not apply to any per-
son who now has the right to vote or
to any person prevented by physical
disability from complying with Its re-
quirements."
No just objection can be made to this

1T is NOT generally known, although
it is n fact, that the president has
power, under certain circumstances, to
adjourn congress very much as the
queen of England may prorogue par
lament. In section third of article two
of the federal constition it is provided
that in case of disagreement between
the two houses respecting thetime,o ad-
journment, the president may adjourn
them to such n time rs he may think
proper. This power has never been
exercised by any president; but the
possibility that it may have to be cx-
ercised by Mr.. Cleveland before the
tariff fight shall have ended is worthy
of consideration. 1t is not likely that
president who sees no impropriety in
instructing congress what he wants it
to do and in abusing it for not doing
it, would be deferred by any delicate
scruple from resorting to the foregoing
novel method of getting congress "otf

For Those Who Stood Firm.


The Pittsburg Times is disposed to
regard as one Of organized labor's
greatest victories the fact that it has
brought about in many trades annual
conferences at which wage questions
are settled for year. The advantage
Of this, to both employer and em-
ployes, are, it thinks, so great and so
plain that the annual agreement upon
scale which formerly obtained in
but few trades has extended to many.
Those who are used to it would as soon
think Of giving it up as of going to
work by the week with an under
standing that their wages might be
changed from day to day, according as
the wind blew.
But the Times very shrewdly sur
misses that the Debs and Sovereign
policy of calling everybody out when-
ever anybody has a grievance, cannot
exist in partnership with the yearly
scale system. 1t cannot be written us
proviso in a scale Of wages for rolling
steel or blowing glass, or setting type
that this contract may be declared off
without notice whenever any other
body Of men in any other industry fall
out with their employers Such
scales would be worse than no scales
at all. They would not be articles Of
agreement, but provocations to dis
agreement. They would substitute
continuing uncertainty for the twelve
month periods Of peace which prevail
in many industries. There would be
not only frequent strikes, but always
the threat and fear of strikes, which
would be quite as demoralizing as q
new tariff bill every year. A contract
could not be taken to do anything or
to make anything, with any certainty
of being able to carry it out"

indications of the day that despite the
false clamor caused by such men as
Debs and Sovereign, the great majority
of the conservative workingmen of the
country were not stampeded like cattle
into a causeless general strike, but in
stead stood their ground firmly and
patiently, in obedience to fair contract
obligations. Those who have very
properly been mercilesslv puncturing
the pufled pretentions Of the labor
dcmagogues of the land should not for
get to give corresponding recognition
and praise to the hundreds Of thous-
ands of sturdy toilers whom these
demagogues could not sway.

IT WOULD be a happy outcome of the
New York gubernatorial situation if
Empire State Republicans would util-
i2e Andrew d. Whites return from
the Russian ambassadorship as fitting
occasion to present to him the nomi-
nation of which he was wantonly de
prived four years ago. The expert
ence of Mr.. White at the convention
which nominated Fassett was almost
identical with that of General Has
tings, q few weeks prior, at the Penn
sylvania convention which nominated
Delamater. The happy trend of re-
cent events in our own commonwealth
has rectified the blunder Of four years
ago; and it is now within the power of
the Republicans of New York to COM
plete the significant parallel.
