Sunday as a pay of Rest .

The position of Sunday as day apart
from the working days was never more
thoroughly established in this country
than it is today. 1t is accepted as a
''day of rest" For that reason the poll
tian who should advocate the opening of
shops, manufactures and other business
establishments would be buried beneath
the "labor vote" while the politician
who would abolish the protection from
disturbance of people who wish to wor-
ship would be buried beneath the
'Church vote" To fear that the work
ing class can ever lose its freedom from
labor or the church goers their immuni-
ty from noise is as ridiculous as to sup.
pose that the poor man may lose his
right to vote through the restoration of
the old property qualification for the suf-
frage.
This is no matter of theory. 1t has
been established by facts of experience.
1t has been established by the facts of
experience. At every step away from
the ancient order we have been told that
this was 'the entering wedge for Cont
rental Sunday" 1t was so when the
giving of free concerts on Sunday in the
Central Park of this city and Prospect
Park in Brooklyn was proposed. 1t was
so when the opening of the Metropolitan
Museum was advocated. 1t was 50 when
provision was made by transportation
lines for giving tens of thousands of peo-
pie from each of these cities, at low eX-
cursion rate, chance to visit COney Is
land, Glen Island and a dozen other near
by resorts. But the threatened bugbear
never appeared, and it is to- day as far
| away as ever.
In his excellent letter advising the
Germans to support the police commits
Sioners in enforcing the Sunday excise
law in this city, as the only way to put
an end to police corruption, Carl Schurz
spoke of that liberal current which has
given us of late years public Sunday con-
certs and open museums" " and expressed
the opinion that this current promises
soon to loosen other unreasonable re-
straints" Mr.. Schurz used the proper
term. The slow change in Sunday OBJ

tion of the stream; it will never become

fore it. The man who thinks that the
PuritaHISabbath may be restored is ca.
pable of believing that the Hudson river
can be made to run up hill; the man who
fears that we are to have the Continental
Sunday in America is capable of lying
awake all night on boat from Albany
to New York, from dread that he will
find the peaceful stream suddenly turned
into a raging Niagara, which will sweep
over the falls to certain destruction all
on board who do not take the first alarm.

When an old soldier, nowadays, be-
comes impatient for his long overdue
pension money, he is entitled to what
little consolation he can derive from the
fact that he is but one of thousands who
are involuntarily aiding the Administra-
tion in presenting false statement of
the governments financial condition.
To bring the deficit of the fiscal year
ending June so to below $4,000, 900, it is
estimated that about $1,722,OOO of pen
sion money, as well as money
due the Army, the Indians, the navy,
etc, in June, was with held until the
following month. Appalling as are the
monthly deficiencies, there is little ex-
cuse in compelling creditors to wait for
overdue claims simply that the Democ-
racy may be allowed to escape the blame
for the actual condition of the Govern
ments finances.

1t Cannot be EVaded.

One of our Democratic contemporaries
quotes Senator Proctor of Vermont as
opposed to making the tariff the cOnspiC-
uous issue in the National campaign.
Senator Proctor never said anything
which would honestly bear any such in
depreciation. He has remarked that the
German Wilson act calls for correction
rather than general revision, and nobody
will dispute it. 1t Is in many respects
Just as the Journal and other Republi-
can newspapers have repeatedly said,
protectionist measure. That is the Tea-
son why President Cleveland refused to
sign it, and stigmatized it, with consider.
able justice as the fruit of ''party peril
dy and party dishOnor" The trouble
with it is that the protection which it
COnfers is unequally distributed. 1t is
sectional measure, as is everything which
the Southern BOurbons have formulated,
and it needs to have its vicious section
alism taken out of it. In other words,
just as Senator Proctor says, it needs to
be corrected, and corrected along Nation
al prOtectionist lines. The people de-
manded it with a voice of thunder in 1894
and they are going to keep on demanding
it until they get it. 1t is entirely obvi-
GUS that the Bourbon authors of this re-
pudated measure are Historically anx-
ious to keep the tariff out of the Nation
al campaign, but their wishes are not of
the slightest consequence. The con-
demned, malefactor would like to escape
the sentence which is the penalty of his
evil doing. but he is not permitted to es-
cape it, nor can the industry wreckers
expect any more immunity.-Boston

The total defeat of the Administration
in the Democratic convention by the
Maryland German faction emphasizes
the Republican prospects for victory in
that State this fall. In the congression-
al elections, last fall, the Republicans
had a majority of 5000, and there is no
evidence that sentiment in that State has
changed since then. The fierce fight
which has just ended in the rout of the
Administration forces has left behind it
serious break in the party. Unless the
break is mended defeat is certain, for
without the aid of the Cleveland faction,
German cannot carry his ticket With
this aid the party must overcome the Re-
publican majority of last year.

At a London banquet last week. En-
bassador Bayard paid the people, whose
representative he is, the extremely high
compliment by informing his hearers
that ''the President stood in the midst
of self-confdent, and often times, vio-
lent people, and it took such a man as
President Cleveland to govern them"
Bayard is daisy. Now that he has be-
come filled with MOTTO. be-concealed
modification and disgust over the saw
agery of his fellow people, it would be
the most appropriate act of his official
career if he would but make way for
some one who is American enough to be
able to see something good in others
than those of the English aristocracy,
one who is not ashamed to be recognized
as a genuine American with American
sentiments.

that its subsequent indifference to the
discourtesies and neglects of the French,
and to the fate of Waller, can be called
nothing short of criminal and cowardly
neglect of duty.
Waller is negro, one of the leading
and most respected in his old home, the
State of Kansas, and is recognized as one
of the most prominent colored Republi-
cans of the country. To the old Bour-
bon hatred of the negro, doubly intensi-
fled be a Republican, may in all prob
ability be traced the indifference of the
Administration as to the fate of Waller.

Literary Notes.

Not since THE Anglomaniacs" has
there been so clever a society satire as
Henry Fuller's 'Pilgrim Sons" which is
published in the August Cosmopolitan.
The problems involved in womans use
of the bicycle are so startling and so num-
erous, under the rapid evolution of this
art. that one welcomes careful discus
sion of the subject by so trained mind
and so clever a writer as Mrs. Reg inald
de Koven. The Cosmopolitan illustrates
Mrs. de Kovens article with a series of
poses by professional models. A new
sport, more thrilling than any known to
Nimrod, more dangerous than was ever
experienced by even Rutftlo Bill, is ex-
plotted in the same issue in an arucle on
"Photographing Big Game in the Rocky
Mountains" before shooting. The idea
that ten cents for The Cosmopolitan
means inferiOrity from a literary point
of view is dispelled by the appearance
in this of such writers as Sir Lewis Nor
ris, Sir Edwin Arnold, Edgar Fawcett,
Tabb, w. Clark Russell, Lang, Sarcey,
Zangwill, Agnes Repplier, etc. Nor can
we entertain the idea of inferiOrity in il
lustration with such names as Hamilton
Gibson, Denman, Van Schaick, Lix,
Sandman, etc, figuring as the chief ar
lists of single mon this issue.

Special Correspondence OF the Standard.
Idaho City, Idaho, May s.-The late
rains have proved great deal of benefit
to Southern Idaho, not in the mining dis
tricts, but also among the farmers, as the
crops were suffering sadly for want of
water. For the past week rain has been
falling almost constantly. which has
caused crops to revive and the water in
the mining bitches to increase.
Work was suspended last Sunday at the
Edna mine and mill, between this place
and Banner. The mill erected was cam
non ball, and it is said that the company
has become satisfied that such mill will
not do for them. In tho lower works of
the mine. ut the depth of over 800 feet,
another vein 10 feet wide of very rich
silver ore has been discovered. The mine
is indeed n great one, but stamp mill is
needed to pulverize the ore. Whether the
company will erect one this year is not
known.
The South Africa mill was started up
on Summit ore last Sunday evening. The
plates arc now covered with gold and the
man in charge of the mill says that the
yield will be over 500 per ton. The mine
improves with development and the ore
now coming out is richer than that at the
mill.
Work was suspended at the Boulder q
few days ago, but will be resumed in few
days. The company intends driving the
tunnel into the mountain for two large
and rich ore chutes that are known to
exist.
The Elkhorn mill, 10 miles above this
place, on Elk creek, commenced crushing
to-day. Tho lessees have n vein from two
20 three feet thick that is very rich and
large quantities of low grade ore. They
will undoubtedly soon be able to raise tho
bond they have on property.
B. Il. Kloppenburg and Spearo are
building a road from the Mayflower mine.
SO that they can get crushing made to
ascertain the value of the ore.
The Charlotte mill will commence
crushing some time this week.
