IT Is clearly the policy of the ad-
ministration to issue more bonds if
congress can be induced to do so.
Carlisle's recommendation in his re-
port was evidently intended as a
feeler for the country, but it re-
mains to be seen whether congress
will be as tractable in this matter as
it was in the matter of the repeal of
the Sherman law. As Wall ptreet is
in the saddle the country may be
prepared for anything.

PorULIsM either means socialism or it

mean socialism and makes everyone who

makes the party not only dangerous TO the

Lawrence Journal, January 6.
The above is q very positive but a
very indefinite statement. Will the
Journal now be kind enough to
specify the particular tenets of social

The Kansas City Journal OF De-
cember %, 1893, had the following
local:
Charles Hall, who claims Danville, KY,
al his home, was arrested last night BY Ser
Qeant Miller, who discovered him in the aOt
Of stealing an oVerOOat from the doorway
Of a clothing store at Ninth and Maine
streets.
When taken to the Central police station,
Hall told the police chat he saw Sergeant
Miller and squad Of policemen coming up
the street, and thRt he took the coat just
when he did, 80 chat they would see hun.
He said he did not want TO escape from the
officers, and is glad that he was caught. He
told Captain Flahive that he hoped he
would get six months in the county Jail as
punishment for stealing the coat, and that
he would much rather be in Jail than out in
the world with no money or friends.
Where would our boards Of char
ity class this man-with the aU0rthy
or unworthy poor?
A few days ago seventeen men
found lodging IN one of the station
houses in the city of Philadelphia. In
the morning they delegated one Of
their number to ask that they all be
committed to the house of correction.
"Why are you 80 anxious to 60 to the
house of corrsCtion2" asked the magis-
trate.
"Well," replied Weunder, and he wiped a
tear from his cheek, "my companions and
myself are weary of several months Of q
compulsory nomadiO life, and they have
delegated me to appeal to you to imprison
all of US until the cold weather has passed. "
The magistrate sentenced each Of
them for four m )nths.
Lieutenant VOLTS record showed
that all the applicants but four were
mechanics, and they had none Of the
air of professional loungers.
Were these men of the worthy or
the unworthy poor? The city could
do nothing for them, society could do
nothing for them, our bossted civil
zation could afford them no relief, ex-
cept by sentencing them to the house
of correction. o, shame upon such q
civilization! Shame upon a govern
mental system that can exercise no
care for it's citizens unless they first
become criminals. o, for another
Victor Hugo to picture the shame OF

lean stole from a baker a loaf OF
bread with which to feed the stsrv-
ing children. He was arrested, con-
victed by the court and sentenced to
Eve years at the galleys. Let Victor
Hugo tell in a few words, without de-
tail, the fate of the family:
What became Of his sister2 What became
of the seven children2 Who troubles him-
self about that2 What becomes Of the spray
OF leaves when the stem Of the young tree
has been out at the foot2 Il is always the
same story. These poor living beings, these
creatures of God, hencefOrth without sup

and gradually buried themselves in that
cold fog in which solitary destinies are
swallowed up, that mOurnful gloom in
which 80 many unfortunsteS disappear dur
ing the gullen progress Of the human race
In the sentence of Jean Vatican all
the hopes Of a noble spirit were
crushed and the possibilities OF a
noble life destroyed. In all the after
years his he life was pursued by re-
lentless police. AS Father Madeleine,
the founder of q great msnufactur-
ing establishment, at NJ, his presence
was pronounced providence. He
raised wages, improved his msnufac-
lures, extended his trade, dispensed
blessings everywhere, helped the
needy, became honored and respected,

M, prospered, grew rich and enjoyed
the confidence and esteem OF all. By
his workmen and by the poor he was
idolized. He led an unlicensed life
and was known and honored far and
near for his many virtues and bene-
factions. In the performance Of q
noble act, the release Of an old man
from the crushing weight Of loaded
cart which had fallen upon him,
Father Madeleine was recognized by
Javert, the inspector OF police, as
Jean Valjean, the gslleyslsve; and he
again became the convict, the Of
fender against the majesty Of the law.
And for what? For having years be-
fore taken q loaf of bread to keep q
woman and seven children from starv-
ing. The city of M. had been made
prosperous by the work Of his hands
and brain. It's citizens, who owed
their own prosperity to him, forsOok
him. His own workmen Stunned
him. He was frlendless in the midst
OF those who were indebted TO him for
all they had and for all they hoped
TO become.

Public officials and boards Of charity
talk of aid to the "tUOrtby' poor.
Who are the tCorthy poor, and who
the unworthy! Why is the one
worthy and the other unworthy3 By
what peculiar marks are they to be
distinguished Is it likely that any
are poor from choice? You say the
one is worthy because he Is honest
and would work if he could get work
to do; while the other will not work
when the opportunity is offered. Or
the one is simply an honest lsboring
man out Of work while the other is q
professional tramp. There may be
this distinction. But suppose your
honest lsboring man, out Of job,
starts out to find one and fails. Sup
pose he continues to go from place to
place in search of work and does not
find it. His money becomes ex-
hsusted and he still goes on seeking
employment. How is he to live after
his last dime is gone, and what now
does he become as he pursues his
daily search for work, in vsinG What
would you call your honest working
man at this stage Of the game? Sup
pose he is unsuccessful in finding
either work or food; and in his des-
peratlon he rObs q bank or q railroad
train. BE becomes then not only one
Of the WnuOrthy poor, but he be-
comes q criminal IN the eyes Of the
law. Who made him a criminal? Is
he alone to be blamed because he is
not still an honest man?

These men evidently belonged to
the worthy poor" up to this stage of
the proceedings. They had been
thrown out Of employment by the
closing Of the mines, and they were
honest men now only seeking work
by which to keep their wives and
children from starvation. Evidently
our boards of charity would con-
slider them worthy of assistance. But

The fish are so well adapted to the

concerning the arrangements for the
