Relief Work for the Unemployed.

The situation, therefore. is not
one which justiies pessimism, So
clallstlc raving, gloomy foreboding,
or anything else except prompt,
sensible and well-planned efforts to
prevent actual suffering and to as
slss in the readjustment of times
which are for the moment out of
joint. With all the work that
charitable societies and relief aeen-
cies must do, it will still remain
true that by far the largest par. of
the task Of preventing or allie waiting
distress must be performed in a
hand-to-hand way by individuals.
Thus every humane employer must
do everything in his power. first,
to keep all his regular force at work
and, second, if he is unable to Keep
them at full and regular work, to
see that none of them become OBJ
jects of public charity. Further.
more, 1t should be the business of
the more prosperous employees and
workmen to show IL kindly regard
for their less fortunate associates.
Again, every man and woman who
can in n way or another find en-
ployment to give, should make 1t
both a duty and a privilege to dis
tribute work as widely as possible.
1t is u good thing, for example, to
give work to dressmakers, seam
stresses, tailors and all classes Of
honest people who can thus be kept
from the humilisting necessity of
applying for charitable relief. A
vast deal OF the most valuable kind
OF assistance can be rendered BY
judicious advice IN helping the un-
employed to make their slender
resources go as far as possible.
Medical and kindred forms Of relief
and advice can often be supplied
without cost where it would be un.
wise and unfortunate to give money.

in American Cities" by Albert

The interview on current politics
in this state, printed in last Sun
days Republican, has attracted
general attention and caused con.
siderable comment, both pro and
con. The reference to Gov. Shell
don's attitude in the senatorial
campaign has brought out a state
ment direct from that gentleman
In which he asserts that neither he
nor his subordinates are taking any
sides In the matter. The Governor
is attending strictly to his ofcial
duties and if his discharge OF them
entities him to u denomination on
his merits, he ia DESTROYS of it. He
believes the republican party of the
state Is abundantly able to elect It's
own senator, and his position puts
him under Srong obligations to
keep his hands off, even if he were
disposed to interfere. Gov. Shell.
attitude is what might ave
been expected Of him, and viii com.
mend lts,'if heartily to every repub.
lican IN the state. -Mhchell Re.

The taxpayers are getting woke up to
the fact that the mileage expense account
OF the Sheriff's Office, is a burden NO
longer to be borne. Adelegation, headed
by Messrs. Phillips and Cloyd, appeared
before the Co. Commissioners on Wednes-
day, to protest against the methods now
in vogue, regarding the return OF petty
malefactors when they had left the
state. The amount claimed in the Bah.
cock and Bennett case and Lafayette
case, were the main subject of dispute.
We are informed that the Commissioners
at their meeting last week threw out an
expense bill Of $40 in these cases. this
will, in all probability, be tested in the
courts. 1t is claimed the Sheriff's bills
for the last eight months, amount to
$500. With two terms OF court yet to
come, it will probably reach $4,000. be-
fore 1895. Who would not be Sheriff?
