Though the Gazette's sympathy in this

he did not hold his temper or speak as
temporarily as Harvey. Horr comes very
near calling names. and if Harvey was as
hot-headed as he is their debate would

TO DESERT THE TRACKS.

There is likely to be a thinning out OF
the ranks at the race tracks across the
river.
The jockeys in good standing have de-
termined TO desert and to seek reinstate-
ment in respectable company by applying
for licenses to the New York Racing Com
mission Already Secretary Boden, OF the
commission. is here tigate the records
OF the boys who have applied.
This, with the scarcity Of good Jockeys al
ready complained OF, VIII have TIE effect
ofgreatly weakening the tracks.
It is not as serious to the racing interests,
however, as the expected detection of the
owners in good standing, who are also
about to seek reinstatement. Already one
OF the principal owners has left with his
horses.
This descrtion may result in wiping out
the tracks altogether, 10y rendering the
racing OF q quality not calculated 10 attract
desirable patrons in paying quantities; or
il may have the effect OF giving crooked
ness free rein, with owners and jockeys OF
Questionable reputation.
whatever be the final result, it is enough
now to know that the tracks are in danger.

SIMPLE RELIGIOUS TEACHING.

While it is doubtless true that many
churches preach above the heads Of the
common people, and by their apparently
strained efforts al reaching sanctIty through
the use of highly-eloquent sermons and
grandiloquent methods, there are many
opportunities for the masses to hear the word
of Godin more simpleand humble manner.
Among them are the Gospel Wagons and the
Salvation Army.
When these methods Of preaching to the
people were introduced they naturally be-
came objects to scon at, and were looked
upon as schemes OF religious fanatics and
cranks. But their simple sincere ways soon
won the hearts OF those inclined to religious
thought, and they are now among the ap-
proved Christian systems of reaching the
public ear. They enter field of labor that
the ordinary minister fails to touch, and
their mission is to stir the heart and pre-
pare the way for the development and
growth of better life. Like the farmer
who plows the soil for the Introduction OF
crops these workers first excite desire to
receive Christian comfort and open the way
for the work OF the regular church,
Could an estimate be made, it would bt
found that these humble methods of at
tracing attention to religious thought dc

SOMETHING ABOUT LABOR.

The request made by organized labor
that in future all contracts made for District
work shall stipulate that none but resi-
dents OF The District he employed and the
maximum rate Of wages be paid is reason
able and just Heretofore contractors have
never Disseminated in favor Of home labor
Workmen from the surrounding towns and
cities have been employed often at lower
than the prevailing rate OF wages. This
has had the double effect Of lowering the
scale and Of preventing local workmen from
profting by District work. II is an un-
fair policy that should be abandoned, and
doubtless the Commissioners will see the
question in that light and order future con-
tracts made accordingly.
Organized labor now has powerful
ally in the Washington press, and can bring
about results that would have been inlpos-
sihe a wear ago. ii can 90 even further
than that and have portraits and cffusive
biographies published Of officers and lead
ing members OF assemblies and unions. OF
course nothing is assed in return for this
lightning change from bitter opposition to
fawning scophancy. II is an act Of con-
trite, abject Teparation; The crawling
seTvilc policy OF hypocrites, who have been
compelled to stop pandering to wealth aud
do justice to the people they have hereto
fore abused

THEN AND NOW.

The Labor Advocate, the official organ
Of The Federation OF Labor and the Knights
OF Labor, Of tie District OF Columbia.
in its last issue has an excellent word
picture contrasting the treatment given
10 organized labor by Washington news
papers ante dating the birth of The Times,
and since that eventful epoch in local
Journalism 1t was reproduced il yes
tcrday's Times.
II rccitcs The fact that mp to about a
year ago these newspapers Were so open
in their antaGonism 10 labor interests
and so misleading in their publications
concerning them, that incalculahle INJURY
and injustice resulted, from which labor
orgaui zations have never fully rccoE-
cred
Ii tells how, in their desire to trIckle
aud fawn 10 corporations, Washington
editors pcrsisteut!y abused working peO-
Die. accused them Of ignorance, and de-
uouuced organized labor as menace 10
society
Every request OF the accused and abused
workingmen 10 present their side OF the
case was refused, and, as the Labor
Advocate says, 'it was only after repeated
appeals that the organizations were al
lowed TO publish a partial statement 10y
paying advertising rates, for which they
stiH hold receipts"
Now an this is changed. These same
papers. claiming that they have always
had the interests Of the workinsmen at
heart" have suddenly been flooded with
M-h h-ruwu sentiments about the dignity
OF labor with special application to Wash
iuCtou labor organizations, Their coli
Imns areopeu, without pay, toitems oflabor
uews-in fact. they are making strenuous
efforts 10 secure such items.
WHY The Labor Advocate tells all
ahourit '.ThecauSc for The sudden change
Of heart is the success OF The Times.
1t is because they have seen that The
Times has grown aud prospered by honest
methods at a rate unknown II The pre-
vious history Of Washington Journalism
Il has been consistent in its spirit Of fair
play to labor organizations and employ
ers alike AID it has not trckleI or
fawucd TO anybody, any party or any
power
il has been the friend Of organized labor
because il believes that organized labor
is thc hest friend Of society at large. 1t
believes in the right Of workngmen TO
organize for their social and material ad-
vancemcut. And it has repeatedly as
serted and emphasi zcd its belief that
brgauized labor never injured, but rather
helped. a fair employer.
Workiugmen cannot toe fooled. They
know their friends and they remember
their enemies. They viii ''be very wary
in kissing the hands 10y which they were
smitfeu"

THE ECKINGToN TROLLEY.

Blythe time the lexington onTrolleyCompany
gets its case fully into court It viii
probably base its claim to a right TO main
tain the overhead trolley upon some farcial
connection with the man in the moon, from
whom authority was derived First, it
openly deried edCongressandtheCo Commissioners
by refusing to comply with the law; next,
it pleaded the baby act and said opportunity
was not given TO borrow money 10 change
its motive power, ana now it tclaims that It's
trolley poles and wires are permanent
fixtures and are in the streets by authority
OF the company's charter.
The Times has repeatedly shown that
back of this apparent stubborn lawlessness
is the Atlantic trolley trust, an organiZa-
ton that is buying up Washington street
railways and attempting To obtain sufficient
foothoId TO eventually obstruct our streets
with the death-dealing overhead trolley.
In Ne-y York and Philadelphia public
meetings are being held to find way TO
limit the slaughter OF trolley victims,
and newspapers continually publish the
IaplulN increasing utd'h S''iS' 'ii O
to excite sympathy against the trolley.
Almost without exception washington
people are opposed TO the trolley. They
want the law enforced against it, and
the lexington Company 10 equip its road
with an underground motor power. Other
street railways have complied with the
law in this respect and are in successful
operation, and there is no reason why
the lexington Company should not be as
law abiding as they were.

FONTS ABOUT PILGRIMS.

"There is an eccentric old friend of
mine" said John C. Scriven, OF Lima, Ohio,
at the EmeTich, "whO has a set of false
teeth that have history. Inorder to create
the impression that they are real, he has
two pure gold incisors placed among the
other artificial food masticators.
One day, while asleep, the teeth disap
peared, and the only solution was that the old
gentleman had swallowed them. He soon
became aware OF a gnawing feeling in his
stomach, he had most awful pains, and he
suffered from spasm after spasm The
eStmable man avowed that he could feel
them eating away at his vitals, and that
they felt heavier al one point than at any
other, and this was due. he thought to
the gold teeth.
AT last, in Difference to his wishes, an
operation was performed and his digestive
organs explored, but no teeth were to be
found. He stlll persisted that they were
there. Soon after man was arrested try
ing to sell two gold teeth and he proved
to be my old friends valet He confessed
that he had stolen them from his masters

with his mouth agape. The set with the

NOT AS SWEET AS SUGAR.

It seems, by the adverse decision Of Comp
troller Bowler, that the trials of the Lou
isiana sugar producers are not yet over.
After the - -enditure during the last Con-
grassof fanimmensc sum ofmoney and count
less lungs full Of promises, they succeeded
il having a rider passed on an Appropriation
bill for s.. 100000 TO pay the sugar boun
ties alleged to be due them. But the
cloudy outlook for revenue and a recent
decision in the Court of Appeals have in
Tluencei Comptroller Bowler TO hold up the
appropriation And the result of his de-
termination has started by first train from
Louisiana an influential reinforcement to
the sugar lobby, now on guard in this city,
and has also caused the esteemed Post"
To bury the offending Treasury Official
deep in the obloquy Of an abusive editorial.
To the planters aud the Democratic party
sugar has not been the sweetest thing in
the world The sugar trust captured
the Senate and brought disgrace to one
of the two greatest political parties, and
at the last moment several members of
Congress changed front on the bounty
question and have since been wondering
which was the bitterer dose to swallow
the disappointment caused by the broken
promises of the sugar lobby, or the stigma
attached to their names. Now il seems
that the sugar planters must again sweeten
the lobby before the appropriation can
be made to slip through the Treasury
Department. Surely not all is sweet
that is sugared, nor does sugar bring
us our greatest happiness.
