RIDGEvILLE CoRs., Feb. 26, '95.
Washington's Birthday was cele-
brated here by our public schools on
Friday evening last at the M. E..
Church. That large and commodious
audience room was packed full of
people, who appeared to be greatly
interested. The church was beauti-
fully decorated with flags, pictures
and various emblems and devices.
!, The exercises consisted of recitations,
colloquies, beautiful and appropriate
songs, and were all rendered by pu-
pills Of the schools. Too much credit
cannot be given to our Principal,
Mr.. M. ID. Rand, and to his very en-
ergetic and efficient ally-Miss Kate
Thornton, Of primary department.
Such exercises as these do much to-
ward installing into the minds Of our
children and youth those patriotic
principles which animated our fore
fathers, and which underlie our great
national superstructure.

number Of our citizens, but not in

GODS TRUTH WINS.

There are two popular fallacles
concerning the temperance move
ment upon which its friends can
afford to smile contemptuously. The
first is that it can be kept out Of
politics Men may hush US, and
press for little longer delay, but 1T
is absurd On the face Of it to pre-
tend that an issue so important, in
fact, the only political issue having
moral quality in it, as we'll as direct
and positive economic bearings of
the greatest kind, can long be with
held from arbitrament at the polls.
Of course it will go into politics.
Where else can it go? Liquor or no
liquor; morals or no morals economy
or waste. Sanity, soberness and
God-fearing thrift; over against
drunkenness, impaired mental
powers, and the wasteful shiftless-
ness of a drunkard's home. These
are alternatives which the people
must meet at the polls, for them
selves and for their dependents.
The other fallacy is that of suppos-
ing that the temperance cause will
play out after a while. If the
liquorites are waiting for the storm
to blow over, they are reckoning
without their host. Gods move
ments do not proceed in this way.
When the truth starts in to win, it
goes straight on to the end. Work
men may fall, but the cause goes on.
There is not case on record where
a moral or social truth once discover
ed has been allowed to fail. 1t
always wins. Temperance is truth
in physical and social science.
Thousands know it in their hearts
who do not say so publicly. There
is an under current for temperance
which even it's friends only half
realize, and there is bound to come a
time when the truth stands up
against the everlasting horizon of
right so nightly that it cannot be
ignored. Then, God knows them
that are His, and the ballot box tells
the story. Temperance has come to
stay, and its voice is to be heard at
the polls. "-Y. W. @. T. q.

NOT ALL QUIET IN THE EAST.

European powers, not satisfied
with the conditions which they
placed upon Japan in the division
of territory, are now inclined to dis
agree among themselves as to the
source from which the funds Of the
Chinese indemnity are to come.
Russia, France and Germany are
disposed to assume the entire res
possibility of placing the loan, but
England, although not showing its
hand in the controversy, follows
the usual custom and wants a
share of the financial benefits. The
French Minister explains the in
reference policy Of France and
Russia as necessitated in order to
protect French and Russian mis-
sionaries in the East, but, notwith
standing the highly righteous pur-
pose of their action, these countries
are wonderfully anxious to scoop
the reward of money lender.
While these countries are argu-
ing among themselves, Japan is
fully occupied at home and may
have an opportunity to expend
a good part of its indemnity
fund in subduing the Chinese re-
publicans in Formosa and keeping
the war spirit of its own people in
check. The factions of irreconcil-
ables are making their power felt,
and as the Chronicle states the
case, instead Of favoring peace at
any price, favor war at any price
until China shall have become the
abject vassal of Japan, Corea a
subject province, and Russia only
the owner of a narrow strip of ter
ritory along the shore of the Pacific.
This discontinued class is made up
largely of the half educated des-
cendants of the former crossword
bearers, who have learned just
enough to be dissatisfied with the
present regime, but not enough to
propose or suggest anything better.
They dream of the glories of ancient |
Japan, but at the same time would |
not for worlds 60 back to the condi-
ton of semi barbarism which char
acterized Japan half century ago.
They want modern civilization, but
hey want to pose as its opponents.

PRESIDENT CLEVELAND appears
in no way disposed to hurry in
making a decision as to who shall
fill the vacancy in his cabinet
caused by the death of Secretary
Gresham. Conjecture about Wash
ington has put Secretary Carlisle's
name forward as in the line of
promotion. AS the monetary
problem is to cut a large figure in
the next campaign and Mr.. Car
isles financial ideas have not
always been in keeping with those
of Mr.. Cleveland and his friends,
it may be that this will be looked
upon as favorable opportunity to
get rid of Carlisle's fnanciering
and at the same time reward him
for his submission to the ideas of
the Administration for two years
past. Forecasting the action of
President Cleveland, however, is
very uncertain business. He has
a way Of biding his time and car
rying out his decisions in his own
peculiar manner. 1t may be look
ed upon with a fair degree of
certainty that no aspirant for
presidential honors in $50 will
accept a position in the cabinet.

CALIFORNIA officials are keeping
a watchful eye on the large number
of japanese who are getting into
the State under suspicious circum-

tendency of the West is to use

when the immigrant, through a re-
duction in wages, comes in contact
with the Anglo-Saxon laborer.

come rich, the poor have be-
come well-tO- do in some cases.
The poor however are still with
US. Many are found in ex-
IRENE poverty. Do industrial
conditions tend to extremes?
| Have the boards of the rich
been filled from the pockets OF
the poor, as is implied in the
above quotation.
Riches and poverty are rela-
tive terms. Considered rela-
lively, the very rich and the
very poor, are farther apart
than ever before. This may
be true, and still the very poor
may be at a higher point in
Conveniences and even the
comforts of life, than was at
tainable in the past.
1t must be remembered that
better pecuniary conditions en-
courage artificial wants, and
that under the stress of such
wants, that were once consid-
cred luxuries became neces-
saries. Qualification of artifl-
cial wants cannot easily be
denied. So it comes to pass
that the style Of living is adj
vanced.
The laborer out of employ
ment finds that in pros
porous time he has lived up to
the limits of wages earned.
Envy SEXES the suffering en-
ploye. Can we rightly blame
him? Sympathy will not re-
lieve his distress. Charity is
distasteful to him. Work,
whereby he may secure food,
clothing and shelter, is his
desire. But work is not al
ways at hand. What means
can he use to secure support
in times of forced idleness?
One answer rises to every
mind: While employed and
earning wages he should have
foresight enough to lay aside
part of his daily earnings.
If a home is not attractive
there is something wrong.
Anyone can make it attractive
if they will only make an effort.
1t isn't altogether a question
of beauty; it is largely ques-
ton of health. Leaving out
all considerations of attractive
ness and looking at the matter
only on the side of comfort, a
person'sl Sheath should be the
object of greatest care and
thought. One of the first
things in building or renting a
house is the sanitary condition.
See that the drainage is per-
feet in every respect. This
one particular point you can't
afford to overlook.
