Almost a Perfect Climate.

The climate of the Sierra, although not so very pleasant on account of the. winds, is extremely salubrious, the. heat never becoming enervating, as it does not exceed ninety degrees F., while the nights are deliciously cool. Lung diseases are unknown. and the sanitary condition of the Sierra may perhaps be inferred from the reply of an old American doctor, who lives in the now almost abandoned mining place, Guadalupe-y-Calvo. When I asked him to give his experience as to- the health of the people, he said: Well, here in the mountains, it is distressiSg- ly healthy, despite complete def lce, of every hygienic arrangement. With. the graveyard. tannery and the sew CTS at the rivers edge no diseases orig mate here.-Scribner's.

REPRESENTATIVE FLYNN, of Okla. homa, who has been interested in se- curing the opening of the Kickapoo country, stated recently that the allot- ments having all been made there was nothing to delay the opening of this land by the middle of August. There were about 300 Indians given allot- ments, leaving something like 600 homesteads for settlers. The interior department is hanging back waiting for the McRae bill to pass, providing that public lands shall be sold at auc- tion, as there would be disgraceful scramble under the old law for so few hOmeSteads.

LIQUOR TRAFFIC CONDEMNED.
A Remarkable Decision Rendered by Mgr.
 SatOIli.

A Remarkable Decision Rendered by Mgr.
 Satolli.
 NEW YORK, July 19.-The Press will to-day say; Mgr. Satolli, the aposto- lie delegate, has just rendered a de- cision condemning the liquor traffic. He approves of the expulsion of the liquor dealers from Catholic societies. This remarkable decision was called forth by an appeal from the ruling of Bishop Watterson, of Columbus, o.
 During the last Lenten season Bishop Watterson addressed letter to the clergy and laity of his diocese dealing wholly with the temperance problem. Bishop Watterson said:
 I hereby withdraw my appreciation from any and every Catholic society in this diocese that has liquor dealer or saloonkeeper at it's head or anywhere among it's oficers and sus- pend every such society itself from the ranks and privileges as a Catholic society until it ceases to be so oficered No one who is en- gagged either as principal or agent in the man. ufacture or sale of intoxicating liquors should be admitted to membership
 One of the societies laid the matter formally before Mgr. Satolli. To this appeal the apostolic delegate has just responded. He sustains the position of Bishop Watterson, and says:
 The liquor traffic, and especially as con- ducted here in the United States. is the source of much evil, hence the bishop was acting within his rights in seeking to restrict it. Therefore, the delegate apostolic sustains Bishop Watterson's action, and approves of his circular and regulation concerning sa- looms and the expulsion Of saloon-keepers from membership in Catholic societies
 Rev. Alexander P. Doyle, of the Paul. ist Fathers, the general secretary of the Catholic Total Abstinence union of America, said that the declaration of the apostolic delegate is the most i'm portant exer pronounced by the church in this country, and he thought its effect would be far-reaching.

MISCELLANEOUS,

THE First regiment, I. N. G., was called to arms at the Pullman works on the goth by a rumor that riot was in progress. Investigation showed that the report was caused by crowd of women and children who had hurled rocks, mud and insulting epithets at the Pullman laundry girls. One of the non-union girls attempted to escape and was chased several blocks by the crowd. She finally escaped and the troops soon caused the crowd to come to order.

 THE steamer G. B. Montieth struck q snag near Owensboro, Ky, and sank. One child was missing. A panic was narrowly averted, as the boat carried a large number of Sunday school chill dren.
 DUN's review of trade for the week ended July 20 said that the effects of the great strike had not yet worn off. The financial situation was little brighter, because the exports of goods had been resumed. Wheat had de- clined cents for the week. Corn had advanced shade, with no reason for the advance, for the prospects are ex- cellent for large yield. Cotton de- clined fraction.

Many Foreigners Return to Thetr Native
 Lands-Nothing to Do in This Country.
 CHICAGO, July I9.-The European rate war inaugurated by the leading steamship lines may result in whole sale exodus from Chicago of many men connected with the late strike. Never before in the history of steamship rates has it been possible to go from Chicago to any European port so cheaply Since the cut in rates has been in- augurated the exodus from Chi cago and the northwest to various points in Europe has figured up a third of the traffic from New York, according to the estimates of local steamship lines, and the announcement of the last great cut in rates has start ed real hegira of European born peo- pie. There are half dozen interesting phases of the present situation in re- gard to ocean travel, and there is much food for thought in the depletion of the army of the unemployed in this coun- try by the return of thousands of work CTS to their homes abroad. It is esti- mated that before long labor will be dO d pTcInluu luSJedu Ol d ulscOuHJ, and there are not few who figure on season of prosperity as con- sequence of the return to Europe of thousands who have been in the last six months unsuccessful can didates for employment. Never be- fore have rates been so low, and it is small wonder that the thrifty foreign CTS flock to take advantage of the con- ditions of the present time. It is pre- dicted that the collapse of the Debs and other strikes will precipitate rush abroad of men who have gone out and cannot get back. Advices from abroad to the various steamship com panies indicate an almost total cessa- tion of immigration. Foreigners here have discouraged friends and relatives abroad from seeking work in this coun- try. Local steamship agents also say that there is no doubt of heavy exo- dus to all parts of Europe.

MEMBERs of the house committee on interstate commerce think that the laws governing contracts with em- ployes of companies engaged in inter- state commerce should provide that corporations should not discharge men nor cut down their wages without due notice, and that on the other hand men should not be allowed to stop work without notice to their employers. They would not interfere with the rights of employees to strike in body or otherwise, but would prevent the stranding of commerce, as well sympathetic strikes entered upon with. out notice.

SINCE the price of oats has been com paratively higher than the price of wheat, the products manufactured from oats have been adulterated by mixing them with products of wheat. The manufacturers of oat meal have been buying large quantities of wheat recently for the purpose of increasing the weight and cheapening their out put A great deal of wheat is being used in the commercial foods that are placed upon the market. It certainly is an abnormal state of affairs when the grain which, rated by its intrinsic value, stands high above every other cereal gets so low in price that it ca, be used as an adulterant of foods.

THE investors in railway securities are faring badly. During last year over GO per cent. of the total railway stock in the country paid no dividends, and over 10 per cent. of the mortgaged bonds paid no interest, while the out look for the present year is still worse. There are 153 railroads in the hands of receivers because their earnings have not come up to their expenses, and others are lowering on the verge of the same misfortune.

The pcanut and tb. Slave Trade.

How the peanut found its way into this country is mystery. There is a tradition that some of the slaves who were brought from Africa and sold in North Carolina introduced the legu. minous plant into that tstate. The pea nut is indigenous to Africa, and if it be true that we owe it's introduction here to the abhorred slave trade it is the single item of credit which can be car ried to the account of that inhuman traffic. c.-Philadelphia Record.

APATHY Is DONE FOR.

Did anybody say anything about DO
litical apathy? About two wears ago
there was some such talk. People re-
fused to take their usual intense interest
in an election. They were tired of the
discussion of the tariff, and they did not
come out in any great numbers to hear
what was said about it. Meetings were
poorly attended and the election excite
ment meagre.
Men were prosperous in business and
happy mentally and bodily. They were
not particularly interested in politics
and the political opinions they arrived
at were incomplete and whimsical. There
was also widespread feeling that all
the parties were alike anyway. and were
simply in a conspiracy to play the public
for dupes.
The Democratic party went into power
as result of this indifference to politi
cal discussion as well as of neglect of
the ballot.
Since then, and it is not so very long
ago, the country has been thrown into
all sorts of misery. With strikes. In
dustrial armies, closed factories, de-
pressed business, and travails of all kind
beSetting the country, people have drop
ped apathy and indifference like a hot
potato.
1t has convinced one generation at
least, that no man can afford TO be indif
ferent to the politics, and the economic
principles under discussion during a
political campaign. So great has been
the trials of the government within the
last year that it has reached the individ
uaL When the individual suffers,
apathy dies out quickly and surely. To-
day the individual is suffering simply
from his own negligence. The idea of
protection was just as true and potent at
the election of 1892, as it is today.
The trouble was that the individual
was enthroned in an era of plenty and
confident that no governmental econo-
mic change conld disturb him. He sees
his mistake, now.
The country has learned hard lesson.
The men who are yet 10 be born will
have TO learn the same thing for them
selves some day, but the present genera

woaEN TAKING A EAND.

Sorosis has been shocked until her cor
set strings were threatened by the un-
usual tension of indignation and SWELL
ing hearts beneath, and all because OF
the action OF the Woman's League of
Brooklyn, whose members have formu-
lated and issued a protest against female
suffrage. This league of women set
forth ten reasons, substantial and con-
elusive, WHY women should not be sub
iected to an additional duty simply be-
cause small per cent of their sex deems
such duty privilege to be enjoyed. The
Brooklyn ladies intimate that should the
men seek to compel women to vote these
very equal suffrage leaders would be the
first to protest against the unwomanly
degradation. The Brooklyn women are
right. Even if woman suffrage becomes
the law very large per cent of women
will have nothing to do with it, and an
other per cent of those who are now
willing that the innovation shall be Sc
cured will. as soon as they find the du-
ties pertaining thereto disagreeable and
void of profit or advantage to either
men or women, either repudiate its obli-
cations or neglect them without excuse.
The trouble is that the great majority
of women who are intuitively opposed TO
this proposed political revolution, unlike
the Brooklyn ladies, cannot even be in
duced to formally protest, for the very
same reasons that they would not par
ticipate in public life, while the minority
element of abnormalities cry all the
louder for their "rights."
