The editors of periodicals at the
present time have undoubtedly the dis
agreeable task of reading much poetry
which is not only unavailable" but
utterly without m ,-!t; still, as the taste
of the majority Of readers in this gene
ration is for that which is cheerful in
poetry as well as in prose, 1t is not
likely that any editor to-day would
have such a depressing list of rejected
contributions as the one printed in a
magazine whicE bears date over fifty
years ago.
my Wife's Grave" Midnight" )"
Lament over the Grave OF Wife"
"The Poets Doom" Reflections"
"On Hearing the Eulogy of a New
Friend" vengeance" Let me Weep"
THE Poetry OF Tears" and "Alone." ("
Such are the titles of these unavailable
poems.
1t appears that the articles accepted
were of much the same character, al
though they probably displayed marks
of genius whion induced the afflicted
editor to accept them; Autumn Mus
ings," "The Last Song Bird" THE
Mourner," THE Bereaved," Shadows
of the Past" Solitude" and Pass
ing Away"
If any poems OF more cheerful or
der were received, they were certainly
not considered worthy OF any notice
n that number OF the magazine.

EMPLOYERS Liability.

A workman does not assume a risk
where he knows there is some danger
without appreciating it.
An employer is bound to use reason
able care to see that machinery used by
his worlmen is in proper condition.
The mere fact that workman re-
ceives an injury raises no presumption
of negligence on part of his employer.
Where an employe sustains an injury
by the combined negligence of fellow
workman and his employer, the latter
is liable.
An employer cannot delegate his duty
TO provide his workpen with proper
means, facilities and appliances for do
ing his work.
A worlimen does not assume the risk
of injuries from latent defect in ma
chinery, because his opportunity of dis
covery is the same as his employers.
An employer is bound to give notice
of latent danger, among which the en-
plGee is required to work, and ofwhich
the employer has knowledge, or should
have had knowledge.
person entering the service of an
other assumes all risks naturally incl
dent to that employment, including
the danger of injury by the fault or
negligence of fellow workman.
The mere fact that an employe was
careless in doing a certain piece of work
does not show that he was a reckless
and incompetent workman, whom it
was negligent to employ or keep.
When workman knows that the ap-
pliances with which he works are de-
fective, and he does non complain to his
employer or Representative of their con,
dition, he assumes the risk of their,use.
The fact that a superintendent as.
sures a workman that there is no dan
ger, and tells him to return to work
does not relieve the workman of the as
sumption of the risk, he being of full
age and knowing the danger.
The mere fact that manufacturer
hires an unlicensed engineer to run his
| boiler does6not render him liable tc
other employers for personal injuries
caused by the explosion of the boiler.
A employer is not required to use
the most improved kinds of machinery
| in his factory. 1t is sufficient that tn,
machinery was reasonably safe anC
suitable for the purpose for which i
was used.

Fruits of the Cold Standar q.

Suppose that in 1892 a free silver

things had followed: The industry OF
the country sandbagged, workingmen
thrown out of employment by the
million, farmers unable to sell their

everywhere so near the verge of in

bond obligations increased by 1852, 900,
900 to l.eep gold in the treasury, pay
ment of the public debt stopped, and q
deficit in the revenue of $12,OOOOOO a
month piling up-suppose all this under
a silver administration, and who would
there now be to question that our man.
fold calamities had been brought upon
us by free coinage?
All these disasters have befallen un.
der gold administration, and why
should not the gold standard b6

better guides than the Vaccinations Of

JOHN SHERMAN"

Under the existing gold standard the
value of property in Michigan is stead
lily decreasing. In 1891 the assessed
valuation of all property In the state
was ST. 100000. Under ordinary cir
cumstances and a fair system of
finance the state. being new, should
show a gradua increase. There is not
only no such Increase. but there is an
actual decrease, the assessed value of
ell property In the state for 1896 being
81, ,106. .200, 900. s24,SO0.000 less than Ave
years ago. The people of Michigan
should vote for Bryan and free silver,
to stop the decline In their property
and restore the value which the gold
standard has stolen frorn II.

Plutocracy Illustrated.


In answering correspondent the
New York World quotes from the cen
sus of 1890 to show that 1900 families
own over s12, 900, 600, 900 O00--over twelve
thousand million dollars-of the wealth
of the United States.
At such a time as this, the World Is
not likely to be accused of assisting
the Democratic party. So, accepting
its figures, let us see what they mean.
The total assessed value of all real
and personal property in Nebraska un-
der the census of 1890 was $1S4, 900, 900;
of Missouri, 1887 100000; of Illinois,
$809, 900 900; of Kansas, S347, 900, 900; of
Kentucky, $547 100000; of Tennessee,
1882, 900 900; of Colorado, 1920, 900, 900; of
Texas, $3.50, 900, 900; of Alabama, $685.
o00, 900; of Mississippi, $166, 1000, 900; of
Indiana, 1856. 100000, and of California,
81, 101 ,000, 900.
The combined assessed wealth, real
and personal, of these twelve great
states OF the west and south, as shown
by the census of $780, foots up between
six and seven billions, while the COM
bined wealth Of 5000 plutocratic fami-
lies foots UP over twelve billions-near-
ly twice as much

Garrett County Jail.

Goldsborough S. Griffith, presi-
dent of Maryland Prisoners Aid
Association, has recently been to
Oakland. and the report which he
makes of the sanitary condition of
the Jail is not fattering. EIe says:
"The Jail is a small, two story
brick building, with six iron cages,
being very unsafe, as prisoners
frequently make their escape. A
few days before by visit IL desperate
prisoner was caught just as he was
about to make a jail delivery. The
sanitary condition is exceedingly
bad. and it is place entirely unfit
for human beings. 1t is without
drainage or proper ventilation; the
windows cannot be lowered, and the
stencil from the closet or cesspool
IN the rear of the building IS at
times slckening, and not only dam
aging to the health Of the prisoners
but to the sheriff and his family.
There is no wall about the jail, or
any opportunity for the prisoners
to get into the air or sunshine.
"Two years ago, on my visit to
this jail. | called the attention Of
the sherlff's wife to the bad sanitary
condition of the building, and told
her that she and her husband were
periling their lives, as well as those
of the prisoners, by allowing such a
condition of things. A month or
two later she was taken sick with
fever and died. The wife of an
other sheriff died few years pre-
viously from the same cause. The
sheriff and prisoners complained
bitterly of their horrible surround
lngs. The building needs thor
ough overhauling and more fire.
quent application of soap and
water.
There were three white men
and two colored men confined in
the jail. One of the white men was
arrested on charge of pushing a
man off of the cars of the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad near Oakland,
and carrying concealed weapons.
The man he pushed off had one of
his feet crushed by the wheels. He
is also in Jail. There is no charge
against him, but as there Is no aims
house in this county, or any pro-
vision made for any one injured on
the railroad, he had to be placed in
this foul Jail. There is no excuse
for this, especially as this county is
in the best of financial condition,
and should have hospital or aims
house."

CropS.

1t is probable that less damage to
crops has resulted IN this portion of
the State from the continued dry
weather tnan in other sections, but
rain is very much needed for the
late planted corn and potatoes.
The early planted of these crops
could scarcely be better, and may
be safely reported as assured. Past
ures are becoming poor. Oats have
been harvested, with results gener-
ally good. Buckwheat is reported
excellent in northern Garrett, but
poor in the southern portion of the
county. Wheat threshing is IN
progress, and the grain is turning
out well for the amount of straw,
but rather poor for the acreage.
Heavy shipments of peaches are
being made from Washington
county, and the quality of the fruit
is good.
