The Cnkindest Cut of All.

The great wheel at the Indian exhibit
ton stuck on Wednesday night a little
after 8 O'Clock. The unfortunate per
sons who intrusted themselves to it had
to remain suspended between heaven
and earth for hours. We do not pity
them overmuch. Those who can find
pleasure in slowly revolving i'll air
would look upon a Kaleidoscope as a
form Of art. The soullessness Of these
American amusements is appalling.
The switchback railway and the great
wheel testify to a depth Of vulgar stu
pidity that would have astonished the
builders Of the tower Of Babel Lon

Today will be generally observed
through out the country oy
labor organizations as a holiday
Labor Day. While congress,
a yesr or more CO. passed an act max
ing the first Monday in September a hol-
iday in the District of Columbia there is
no statutory provisions making it such
throughout the nation, but being made
a holiday in our seat Of government out
of respect to labor, the organizatlonso OF
laboring men and others generally will
observe the day throughout the country.
This is broper. Nothing is more worthy
Of being dignitied and honored thau hon
est: toll, and everything that tends to
create respect for labor, advance its priv
ileges. safeguards and rewards should be
encouraged. Wholesome laws and a
wholesome respect for Law are the W
conservators OF the interests of the work
ing man and the exercises Of the day
should be devoted to emphasizing these
two ideas and impressing them upon the
conscience Of the American people. An
~tagonistic to these however is the at
tempt Of certain elements in Chicago,
who hardly deserve the honored name OF
laborers, to carry a flag other than the
Stars and Stripes, symbol Of law and or
der-government-in their Labor Day
professions and demonstrations. The
Mayor of Chicago has done right in say
ing that no flag out the American flag
shall be raised in that city, or 80 far as
that city governments influence goes, IN
this country. The day is also made the
special occasion for the Knights of Labor
to Legin a boycott Of the national bank
notes. Whether this is successful or not
is yet to be determined. The righ9 OF
anyone 10 refuse this form of money can'
not be questioned; the wisdom Of it as q
reformatory measure or step, Is another
thing. While interest in the boycott has
greatly subsidized at present the outcome
will be watched with much mlnutenest
for the result will furnish a measure O
the influence of the Knights of Labor il

Curious Statistics In an English Free

Souls Saved and Lost Since the Days Of
Father Adam.
In a late edition Of m English Free
thinkers magazine we find some curl
Gus statistics on the relative number of
souls that have been saved II lost since
the creation of the world. They are very
faulty as we'll as rashly presumptive
(this latter remark refers to the prOba-
BILE number Of souls lost between the
date of the birth of Adam and that Of
Christi, but are queer and interesting
nevertheless. The following is a synop-

In round numbers the earth has a
population of 1900, 000, 900, of whom
500, coo, 900 are prCfessed Christians,
the other 1000, 600, 600 being Moham-

heathens. Tie whole race was con-
demned to eternal punishment for the
Sin of Adam. This was the fall of man,
and for which there was and is no re-
demption save through the death of
Christ.
Biblical chronology gives the earth q
period of 5000 years. From Adam 5

The Sioux Falls Press like many other
graduates from the school Of experience
is evidently not a believer In higher
education at the expense of the public
and in the course of it's remarks refer
ring to the disturbances in the Yer
million school and lately in the Brook
irgs school, it says: But il such
troubles are to be epidemic among the
public educational institutions of the
state, it will be well for the school OF
mines or for the normal schools to look
out-for the next patient must be one OF
~these-unless there should be relapse
among the institutions that have already
suffered.
1t may perhaps have been noticed that
such scandals as have been endured in
this state nave beer among the 'educa-
tional" instead of the charitable and
penal" institutions OF course it is the
Judgment of the Press that this is more
than a mere coincidence. 1t believes
that state educational institutions are
an anomaly prostitution OF h real
functions Of government-and that, be-
ing so, they are especially susceptible to
disease which must manifest itself 10
scandals and turbulence. But if first
the state university and next the agrl-
