Prohibltionists Petition.

Some of the politicians of the city are try
ing TO bring their politics into the churches,
and with that end in view have started petit
tions on their rounds among the various
churches of the city for signatures asking
the Legislature not to repeal or In any man
ner alter the present prohibitory law. Two
petitions were circulated among the people
attending the First Presbyterian church ab
the service yesterday morning -one of them
for the signatures OF voters, the other for
women and non-voters generally. The first
got eight signatures out of 500 people who
were in the church, while the secoud got 70
signatures at all.
The prohibitionists of the city are not
doing all there is being done in the city,
however. A call has been issued for "a
republican mass meeting NJ the court house
tomorrow evening at 7;30 o'clock to take
some action looking toward a modification of
tho present law. The call bears the sigma
lures of A. 5. Hnzelton, chairman of the
county central committee, G.. NJ. Gould,
chairman of the city central committee. and
V, l.. Treynor, president of the republican
club of Council Bluffs.

Fire on East Pierce street.

The residence Of Mrs. Noack on East
Pierce street, near the residence of l.. a..
Caspar, caught lire yesterday morning
shortly after 8 o'clock, from n defective flue.
Owing to a delay in ascertaining the loca-
ton of the fire the department did not ar
rive very promptly, but very soon after the
first stream was thrown the flames were ex-
tinguished. Almost the entire roof was
burned off, but the contents of the house
were uniniured, excepting slightly by water.
The damage is thought to be about 800.
About eighteen months ago Mrs. Noack was

the pangs of hunger. You have already
done nObly, and through your liberal
contributions we have assisted, since the

amount of provisions. etc, now on hand,
however, is very small and must soon be
exhausted, while the number of appeals for
feel that from now on many more persons
who have never before asked for aid will be
obliged to do so.
There is a large number of wage-earners

clothing will be gladly relieved. In fact,
anything that would contribute to the

needed to carry on this work. Baskets of
cooked food would also be very thankfully
received, as we could thereby supply imme-

Parties who wish TO purchase and send in

instead, as it will be easier for them and
more convenient for US.
Contributions may De brought to the mis-

Swiss Management Of Hard Times.
Switzerland is agreed to be in some
respects in advance Of the United States
in it's application of republican doctrines.
How the government manages to help
people in hard times is therefore Of in
terest. Existence has been .grievous on
Swiss agriculturists for the last year
owing to drought and shortage of crops.
The hay crop was particularly deficient,
SO much SO that the article had to be i'm
ported from the United States. It was
let in free of duty to feed the starving
Swiss live stock. #M 4
To facilitate matters the government
took upon itself the part Of distributing
agent. The local authorities in the diff
ferent cantons attended to the distribu-
ton. Out of the public funds they
bought the bales of hay and sold them
at cost to the farmers. The government
had nothing to gain or lose by the trans
action except that it gained a large
share of good will from the grateful
farmer. .n-g... 49, 81 ~,
The Swiss idea is that government
should help its citizens in hard times.
In many of the cities during the past
winter public appropriations were made
to provide work for the unemployed.
The Worthington advance. [volume] (Worthington, Minn.) 1874-1908, 1894-08-23

This summer marked the first occa-
sion in % years that the great German
Saengerfest met in New York city, and
the New Workers did not know what to
make of it. In accordance with their
usual provincial ideas, some of them
tried to make sport of it. But when in
Madison Square Garden a volume Of
sound swelled in mighty chorus from
5000 trained, mellow, manly voices
even the city by the sea opened its eyes.
Some of the Knickerbockers were al
most convinced that there were as much
music in the Saengerfest exercises as in
Italian opera, really! They had no idea
it was so vast and fine. More's the pity.
If the American soul had within it half
the music the German soul has, then we
would have native feasts Of song like
this. The Americans could not do bet
ter than to join the German singing So
cieties, wherever they are-that Is, It
they could be admitted.

Every Few Respectable People,

every Few Respectable People,"
"There were very few respectable peo-
pie present" A gentleman who repre-
sented the wealth and culture Of Phila-
delphia looked at little crowd Of per-
sons assembled in an open space listening
to something that somebody was reading
to them. He was passing by, and curl
osity prompted him to glance at the
people. They were shabby looking, on
the whole, a crowd partly laborers paus-
ing briefly in their work, partly idiers
listening with no particular purpose.
Not many of them had polished boots,
and their nails had not been manicured
that morning. Oh, dear, no! The fine,
high bred Philadelphia, who represent
ed the safe, conservative sentiment Of the
moneyed classes Of the solid old town,
took in the motley crew and remarked
as he passed on and left them, ''There
were very few respectable people pres
ent."
The day was July 4, 177e. The docu-
ment read aloud to the motley crowd
was the Declaration of Independence.
The man who made the remark concern
ing the crowd was one Of the finest OF
Philadelphia's upper ten. When the
Christian religion itself was founded, 1t is
recorded that there were few respectable
people present.

The Lazy Unemployed.

\. The Lazy Unemployed.
If you have sympathy to spare, don't
waste too much of it on the unemployed
this summer. A big .ablebodied tramp
asked newspaper man not long ago for
something to buy food with. The news
paper man happened to know of good
place lying loose waiting for man will.
ing to work. He asked the tramp in re.
turn, ''Do you want q good job?" The
tramp inquired, .'What is it9' I'm the
country on farm" replied the newspa-
per man. The tramp sneeringly said:
''Not much. What do you take me for?''
The man he had asked for money had
taken him for another man out of en-
ployment and willing to work at the first
thing that offered a living, as he himself
would have been. But he was mistaken.
The big ablebodied man did not want
work at all. +
q From many parts of the country this
summer comes the same report. Farm
labor cannot be had at any price, The
slouching, shambling vagabonds who
constitute so large a proportion of the
unemployed" will not take work in the
country. Many of them will not take
work Of any kind. They prefer to rob
cornfields and henroosts and appeal to
the maudlin sympathies Of the senti-
mental. The farmers are the ones who
furnish all the world with food. The
unemployed man who asks their food
without being willing to do the kind Of
work they do the year round ought to
starve. It is q crime against society not
to let them starve. u .-.. E. -'
