Against Vivisection.

IF you keep on, some Of these DAYS
you fellows will cease to be satisfied
with torturing animals and will want
to be making your devilish experiments
on human beings" said an eminent
surgeon toa body Of enthusiastic viyii-
sectionists years ago.
The prediction has been verified. IN
1894 DR.. ]. L. Pyle prepared and caused
to be introduced into the Ohio legisla-
ture a bill to turn over condemned
criminals to the vivisectionists and let
them be experimental on under an
aesthetics. = An idea more fraught with
fiendishness and weird diabolism never
entered human brain. Are the rites said
to be practiced by the devil worshipers
Of Paris any more hideous than the
propositions to let lot Of calloused
young surgeons, some Of them not too
particular in their conscience or morals,
try any cruelty :heir maginations sug-
gest on victims as helpless as the model
Of Parrhasius?
1t is beyond doubt chat familiarity
with animal suffering and torture hard
ems the human heart and chills human
sensibilities. There was reason in the
old law which forbade a butcher to
serve on jury in which human life
was at stake. It is notorious fact that
during the war many a leg and arm
were sacrificed to the sheer blood
thirstiness Of army surgeons. Humane
and intelligent persons, surgeons in
cluded, all sincerely hope that the bill
now before congress to prohibit vivisec.
ton in the District Of Columbia will
become law. The states of the Union
will then pass similar laws.
With the possibilities Of seeing
through and through living bodies
which the Roentgen rays now offer,
vivisection becomes simply bloodthirsty
cruelty. s.

The Lovejoy Monument.

L i
It was Wendell Phillips who said that
II 9 young man wanted to win fame
and honor be had only to espouse an I'M
popular cause and stick to it till it won.
This was never truer thar in the case
Of Elijah P. Lovejoy, whose monument,
crowned with a winged victory. will
soon look down upon the people Of AL
ton. Ills The stateappropriated $25, 900
for the statue and the city Of Alton
IS, 900, and with this the great granite
shaft will be built.
But the fame in the case of Loveioy
was bought at the cost Of martyrs
death, and he did not live till his cause
won. But it did win, and he won re-
nown.
The state Of society when this Chris
tan minister was shot to death in the
doorway of his own printing office for
asserting the right of free speech can
hardly be imagined in our time, though,
to be sure, we have not free speech yet
or anything like it. # the men and
women of today spoke freely out their
convictions Oh the most vital questions
of government and society, half of them
would be mobbed. Not a few might
even suffer the martyrdom of Elijah
Lovejoy.
Loyejoy claimed the right to speak
and write against slavery. For this the
office of his newspaper, The Observer,
was looted three times and his press de-
stroyed in St. Louis. Then he moved to
Alton and to his death, in 1887. Upon
one side of the great shaft which will
commemorate his name is this sentence
from his writings:
"As long as I am an American citi-
zen, and as long as American blood runs
in these veins, I shall hold myself at
liberty to speak, to write, to publish
whatever ! please on any subject, being
amenable to the laws of my country for
the same. -

England's Debt and Revenues.

The Review Of Reviews gives an ex-
plicit summary of the available assets
of the English government which is in
teresting. It will be handy to COM
pare with our own. It is particularly
to be noted that England makes profit
out Of her postofice system, something
the United States has never yet: sue
ceeded in doing.
The Reviews summary says SIS
Last year the administration had a realized
surplus Of e4,210, 600. This year, with an es.
timated revenue Of G1O1, 074,O 600, they expect a
surplus of 81, 7O8, 900. Some Slight modifica-
tions in the death duties will dispose of e2OO,.
Geo; $1,000 will go in trivial reduction of
the land tax: increased grants to voluntary
schools will swallow up-if the education bill
passes-e125,OO0, leaving balance of 1915, OOO
which is to be devoted to the relief Of the land
lords rates. England s fiscal system remains
exactly as it was. She raises EGO, 756, 600 by
customs, EGG, 100000 by excise, 9l6, 100, 600 by
income tax and makes profit of 93, 743, 600 out
of the postofice. The national debt now stands
at e652, 900, 000-e190, 00O 600 lower than it was
80 years ago. England's national revenue and
yearly budget is Of about the same volume as
that of the United States. s

Ii Hung Chang.

The Chinese viceroy is probably the
greatest living statesman. If Gladstone
or Bismarck had been born in his place,
surrounded by the same conditions, load
ed down by the weight Of the prejudices
and superstitions of J, 900 years, instead
Of having been born Caucasians in the
most enlightened countries Of western
civilization, it is doubtful if either of
them could have made so good show
ing as the wise and powerful old China
man has done. Now, at the age Of u
years. but as robust and commanding
in mind and body as any man Of SO, Ii
Hung Chang, the great Asiatic who
loved Grant, puts aside the cares of
state by permission of his imperial mas
ter and makes the grand tour Of the
world.
1t is not for his own pleasure he does
this. He could match John D. Rookie
Teller million for million in the matter
Of wealth, and after Johns 179 Stand
ard Oil millions had run out old Chang
would still have an ample supply. He
has many palaces, and all that can make
life worth living, even to an assortment
of wives and he has more fame than the
emperor himself.
But he and his master remember the
drubbing the Japanese gave them. They
rightly attrib butte it to Japanese knowl-
edge Of western ways and warfare, west
ern weapons, western ironclads, western
marching and railways and supplies
They want to see what it is that makes
the west greater than ASIA So the en-
peror sends Ii on his travels around the
world. The result will undoubtedly be
great boom Of modern Improvements
in the kingdom of the yellow fellows.
This boom the United States must have
the benefit of. It must have it's share Of
supplying China with all that she needs
to bring her abreast of modern nations
1t is right, therefore, that we welcome
Ii royalty and show him what wonder
full machinery and inventions we have,
how rich and resourceful we are
There is no doubt but in course of
time China will come abreast of modern
notions. Her defeat by Japan may have
been the best thing that could have be-
fallen her.

It is pleasure, as each Sept rolls
around, to extend our congratulations
to our sister Of France on being able to
steadily maintain a republic in the
midst of the most adverse conditions
government Of the people ever encoun-
tered. On the one hand the Bonapart-
lists, on the other the Bourbons, are ready
at any moment to pounce upon the
slightest weak spot in her republican
armor and wound her to the death. Her
own people are excitable, suspicious and
changeable, admirable as they are in
many respects. In front of her and
around her the rulers of empires and
kingdoms turn cold eyes upon her and
watch her experiment. of democracy
with only half yelled hostility. Until
Pope Leo XIII issued his command from
the Vatican that such scandal should
no longer be the very church and priests
of the people were all against her and
openly in favor of Bonapartism or Bour-
bonism. Yet through it all the republic
Of France has lived 26 years this 18th of
September and gives fair promise of liv-
ing on many generations more. May it
be so, and may the citizens of both
France and the United States become
year by year more wise, kindly and truly
republican, more closely knit together
in the great brotherhood of nationsl
