A Hint to Us.

A too vivid Imagination is not re-
quired to discover in the existing trou-
bles in the Austrian empire hint by
which we may profit. The difficulties
ent races brought under one central
rule by force of arms have not assirn:-
lated but have cherished with intense
bitterness all the hatreds which the
there is possibility, indeed probability.
and conquest engendered in the minds
not only of themselves but of their an
cestors from whom those prejudices
have been transmitted. There are in
Austria alone seven different Ian
guages spoken and each is jealousy
guarded by those to whom it strictly
belongs.
This Congress will be called upon to
reconsider the immigration question
and devise if possible some means
whereby may be restricted the immi-
grafton of the illiterate and those who
oy reason Of previous conditions OF
temperament are i'll fitted to assimilate
with the American people and adopt
'he American Language and customs. 1t

TALK TO The IDLE
Inactivity in Live Social
Affairs Condemned.
Those Who Hold AIocf From Evil
the Late Henry George.

At the Central Union service last ev-
ening, Rev. D. P. Brine sought to i'm
press upon his hearers that the man
who did nothing for the good of COM
munity, was harmful to the place, even
if himself an exemplary citizen. The
discourse was under three heads.
In the first place the pastor again
presented the honesty of manual labor,
citing that the Christ was a mechanic,
and pointing out that there was prone
a disposition to frown upon toll, to
question it's nobility, even its honesty
and to assign the realm of labor to
others, rather than consider it for
ones self, and those near to the aver
age citizen. This was an injustice to a
deserving and very important portion
of the intelligence and best element of
the community. Failure to recognize
the merit of toll and toilers was an in
activity pernicious in practice and re-
suits.
Then there are those who glory in
simply holding aloof from such evil as
the saloon, instead of declaring war
upon liquor and condemning it's ravag>
es at every opportunity. The man who
does not drink and simply says SO,
does not do his duty. He should never
lose an opportunity to assist in war
ring upon evil.
In every place, said the pastor, there
are men who are Christians, but who
are not allied to any church or moral
force Again, there are church mem
bers who simply attend services, who
take no pushing, active interest Or
part in the campaigns which church
should be conducting at all times. The
man who is Christian should
acknowledge his maker publicly and
then should render genuine, effective
service in the cause of Christianity
There was presented as an admir-
able type of citizen, the late Henry
George. There were many men
thoughtful intelligent, as alive to the
sociological problem as this lamented
leader But he went among the people
and labored with them and for them.
AS a consequence he induced men to
nationally attempt the betterment Of
their condition, the solution of the in
equalities of life as it has shaped itself
in populous and rich countries. George
never held an Office, was not mill
tary hero, did nothing to make himself
a popular idol, except to go among the
common people and work with them
and for them. His body lay in state
in New York City for a day, and thou
sands upon thousands were unable to
brave the crush and gaze upon the
features of the man they had loved SO
well. Those who pronounced eulogies
over the body included his family pas
tor, Jewish rabbi, Catholic priest
and a Protestant clergyman. More
than $4,000 workingmen followed the
remains of George to the grave.
Action along the line of thought that
the idle person was harmful to the So
cial fabric was earnestly urged. The
special music last evening included a
solo by Miss Halstead.
