to poverty by processes which innate the
pockets OF those wealthy classes still
more. This. then. Is extended still fur
their by shutting out of the country all
foreign manufactures, and thus author
izing those same wealthy classes TO rob
the rest Of the Americans as they pleased
by compelling them to pay two and three
prices for everything they used In their
homes. And now We gee the Congress
Of the United States utterly defying the
terms of the Constitution by undertaking
to control the transportation OF the coun-
try upon open and avowed principles of
state socialism.
Is there not enough public spirit and
public virtue left in our people to make
them demand halt in this course OF de-
fance Of their Constitution? Are there
not enough good men left to band TO-
gether and compel our lawmakers 10
bring our Government back within the
lines of the Constitution and keep 1t
there? On. for some leader to rise up
amongst the people. with this theme for
mis- text. We believe he could arouse
the public conscience and gather ma
jority of the American people together in
a phalanx OF voters to support his de-
mand. If 1t were done, we should again
be the contented and prosperous people
we were in 1860. If IL is not done, we
fear for the Republic.

ognize the truth of all we have said but
who supineiy reply that resistance TO the
modern trend is useless. 1t has set in cur
rent, they say, that is resistless. and that
can never be stemmed until it has sub
merged everything and all institutions in
a. sea of socialism that will seek TO start
each man in life with the same number OF
dollars that every other one has.
To these we reply that we have absolute
faith i'm the power of the reformer. That
reformation which Martin Luther started
in the early part Of the sixteenth century
and which reached its climax In the fu-
rlous upheaval Of society which We call
the French Revolution. is a standing and
gigantic protest against this pessimistic
view. We do not know when VIC have
read anything with SO much satisfaction
as the following statement made by Su-
perintendcnt Byrnes on Saturday, TO the
Lcxow Committee. Being asked what h
thought OF Or. Parkhurst's work, he re-
piled:
IL have nothing but friendly feelings for
Or. Parkhurst and his society. Although
he has bounded me in every possible
way. Dr. Parkhurst has Gated public
spirit in the city. without which the re-
forms could not have been effected
There is proof of what energetic resist
ance to the insidious approaches OF So
cialism can do. Let all men who love
their liberties, who desire TO lead an up
right and pure life. and who abhor social
ism, with it's rottenness and corruption
in Office, range themselves upon the side
Of those who propose to demand that the
Constitution shall be observed as it was
made. If they will only do this energet-
ically, our institutions will be saved, and
we shall again become the contented and
prosperous people We were forty years
ago.

STAND BY THE CONSTITUTION.

On more than one occasion recently we
have remarked upon the fact that 1t has
come to be deemed bad form" and UNI
fashionable TO talk about such and such
a thing as not to be thought of because
il is repugnant to the Constitution OF the
Government
The idea Of the day is to think of the
Constitution as a dead letter. as thing
which did its part very well once upon
a time, but as totally unsuited to the later
| day wisdom of the people of to-day, who
are far wiser than those old fellows Of
| 1883.
The bare suggestion of such idiotic stuff
| is repulsive TO us. Law is necessary TO
healthy existence in every sphere ana
department the world over. The planets
| in their silent and trackless course around
| their suns must conform to law, or they
| would introduce disorder even into Gods
universe. Man must conform 10 the laws
OF hygiene or sickness and death Will be
his lot And so the history of the world
has proved that nations and peoples must
1--we with due regard 10 certain fixed laws
or their national life must end in con-
fusion and disaster.
The foundation laws by which this
nation should be ruled were collected to-
| gether by the wise men who sat in con-
vention at Philadelphia and formulated
| for us that blessed instrument which we
call the Constitution of the United States.
1t contains every fundamental PROPOSE
| ton necessary 10 the contentment and
prosperity of a people, and If any one of
its injunctions are violated We have tu-
| multi and disorder amongst the people.
Those fundamental laws which are en-
bodied in that great instrument were
necessary TO the healthy life of the nation
| when they were adopted, but they are
no; less necessary TO It's healthy life
now than they were then. But for thir-
| ty-five years Il has been the nations
| habit to set them aside at the demand
of every furious passion which seized on
a large part of the unthinking members
of society, and the result is that our
country Is now involved in a state of dis
order ana confusion Of which no man
| can see the end.
And every trouble from which the ma
ton suffers can be distinctly traced to a
| violation of. or departure from, the letter
| or spirit of the Constitution.
| First. We saw Congress violating both its
letter ana spirit by assuming TO itself
| power 10 do what the Almighty would
have to change his present laws before
He could do II. to-wit. making paper into
metallic money. Then We saw Il usurp
power to prohibit the people of the
United States 10 put out their PAPER PROM
ises TO pay money as they plelsed--one
OF the most precious rights that Con-
stitutlon had guaranteed TO tbem--and
the consequence of the two is that the
Government and the wealthy classes have
entered into an alliance together to make
the laws reduce the masses of the people

An Odd Request.

Science is about to profit by the will of
an old man who died in Vienna on Tues
day morning at the age of 92. His name
was Teiti, and he left his whole fortune
with the exception of some requests to
faithful servants, to pension funds and to
chlldren's hospital-to the Academy of
Sciences for scientific research in astron-
omy, the exploration of the earth and
physics and chemistry. This he did as he
said in his will, for the greater glory of
God, that men and women may become
happier by being more cultured and educa-
ted, and also for the simplification of medi-
cal science" whatever that may mean.
f23, 900, and what is left all goes
to the academy. This will be considerably
over $4,000. The old man went to Vi
emma poor and unprotected over seventy
years ago and earned his fortune in COM
merce, but never lived as if he were rich.
He had little lodging in the fourth story
of one OF his houses, and occupied it in the
winter with housekeeper and servant. In
the summer he had little cottage at Hiet-
Zlng, to which he always rode in an omni-
bus. He had neither kith nor kin, and his
scientific propensities were unknown to
his very best friends. But it appears that
he was fond of making physical and math-
ematlcai experiments, of testing watches
by the movements of the stars, and so
forth. But he was only self-educated
man from first to last, and his will reads
like document composed 100 years ago.
1t Will be difficult to apply his money to
the purposes he had in his mind. as the
will allows of very different interpreta-
