1t appears that the attention of
the judiciary has at last been
called to the wholesale attempts
to intimidate voters who are in
the employ of railroads and 9th
er corporations. A few days
ago Maryland judge in charg-
ing the grand jury, dwelt on this
species of law breaking and con-
demned it in unmeasured terms,
at the same time advising the
severest investigation in order
that the guilty parties might be
indicted and punished. Last
week Judge Jackson, of the
Parkersburg district, in West
Virginia, also called the grand
jury's attention to the outrage on
the rights of voters and citizens
involved, in the attempts of GER
tain railroad officials in Parkers-
burg to intimidate railway en-
ployes in voting. The Parkers-
burg Sentinel has this to say of
the matter
Every railroad employee in
this section of the State has been
assailed with reading matter at
lacking the Democratic party
and its platform and it's candi-
dates, and calling upon the en-
ployes to vote the Republican
ticket. This matter has been
transmitted to the employees in
such way as to give its official
Endorsement, and thereby carry
ing with it an implied wish that
the voter shall cast his ballot as
the corporation desires. 1t is
generally understood that such
communications mean that a
failure of the voter to so vote
means that there will be no fur
Their work in his department for
him.
It appears that intimidation by
managers of corporations has
been practiced more generally in
Chicago than any other portion
of the United States, but the fear
of arrest, exposure and prosecu-
ton has caused them to change
their tactics and they are now
resorting to moral suasion to in
duce their employees to vote for
Mckinley instead of Bryan, but
the resentment caused by the
bulldozing has become so deep
rooted in the labor unions that
it is more than probable that the
men being protected by the sec
recy of the Australian ballot sys-
tenn will promise their vote one
way and cast it another. AT
least. this is the conclusion Mr..
Henry George has reached. after
studying the situation in Chicago
and conversing with the repre-
sentatives and the rank and file
of the working classes,

Next Thursday. in accordance with ap-
pointment by President Cleveland and
Governor Griggs, will be observed as the
annual Thanksgiving occasion, when the
people are asked to lay aside business to-
terests for one day, and assemble in their
accustomed places of worship and give
thanks to God for the mercies and bless
ings of the past year. This custom, now
SO long observed, has come to be great
national holiday, partaking more largely
than any of the other of our many holi.
days, of family reunion, at which home
ties, one of the strong cords that bind the
the nation together, are cemented vet
more closely. and all that is pure and
elevating in the family relation, streng-
ened and fortified. We are a nation of
homes, and while our home life is kept
pure and unsullied, the nation will be W. II
safeguarded. There is abundant cause for
thanksgiving this year, and more particu.
larry for the lifting of the dark cloud Of
depression that has SO long rested with
blighting effect upon our business inter-
ests, bringing in with the frightening
skies hope and prosperity. Let Gods
hand be recognized in the changed condi-
tions, and for his merciful providences
let devout gratitude be offered by all the
people.

We come to gather courage and inspira.

backward is neither pleasant nor profit.

before another door of opportunity was

A lively contest is already in progress
over the legislative plums, the chief fight
being for the Speakership of the House,
The Presidency of the Senate, it is con.
ceded, will go to Senator Williams, Of
Passaic, with the minor offices about az
they were last year, with possibly two
exceptions. For the Speakership Assem-,
blyman MACPHERSON, of Mercer. appears to
have the inside track, with WiIdes, of Bur.
lington, and Gledhill, of Passaic, close
seconds. The other candidates are Jones
and Hogan, of Essex; Roll and Codding,
of Union, and Klink, of Hudson. The
selection is of little interest, outside OF
the contestants, further than to see that
good man is chosen for the place, one
qualified for its duties. Many are advo.
eating a short session, and it would be
wise. if too great haste would not inter.
fere with proper consideration of the
measures presented. The statute books
are already marred with laws that were
passed in hurry and without time fol
the consideration which their importance
demanded. The rule should be: careful
consideration for all legitimate measures
but no time for useless and merely par.
tisan bills.

The Dreaded Germ.

At the British association DR.. Kan
thack, who speaks with great authority
on the subject, read paper on "Bac-
terra In Food, in which he pointed out
that one might swallow any amount of
micro organisms with food without any
injury. Milk ordinarily contains about
million germs per cubic centimeter in
sandwiches they are too numerous to
count, oysters TEEN with them, and
Ices from fashionable confectioner' s
were found to contain from 10, 900, 900
to IA, 600, 900, or considerably more
than the much abused Italian street
vender's wares. There is not the least
doubt in the world that we eat, drink
and breathe any quantity of germs
without suffering in the smallest de-
gree, day by day, unless the germ hap
pen to be of particular sort and to
meet with suitable soil. All the
scientific" fuss about the necessity of
boiling this and sterilizing that in order
to kill the germs is piece of unscien-
tific babble founded upon set of theo-
retic assumptions which take no account
of actual everyday facts. Of course the
psychologists will not admit their mis-
take without a struggle, and DR.. Kan
thack met with good deal of criticism.
Nevertheless he is right, and one of
these days every one will be saying the
same thing. st. James Gazette.

The system of spark arrester. accord
ing to recent writer in Engineering,
which is found most efficient in locomo-
tives is, for coal burners, the device
known as the extended smoke box with
straight smokestack, netting, DETECTING
plate and spark arrester. While no spark
arresting arrangement is absolutely eff
cient, the degree Of serviceableness of
any such mechanism depends, it is
urged, upon the care with which it is
maintained in good condition. Fine
sparks will be found to escape from such
devices even when in the best condition
and coarse sparks necessarily get egress
when anything is in a defective state,
and while the fine sparks are not of a
dangerous character, the coarse sparks
are. Emphasis is laid especially upon
the care which should be bestowed upon
locomotive to prevent any portion Of
the netting wearing into holes by keep
ing the front end cleaned out.
